38 weeks!

Well Wednesday morning I woke up at 2am with really bad cramps, they were horrible!  They started in my back and wrapped around my belly.  I could not lay down, I was up the rest of the day and never went back to sleep.  I lost my mucus plug in the morning and felt "wet" all day!  So I finally called the doctor and went in at 4pm to the office to see what was going on.  I was still only 1 centimeter but my cervix had thin out, that's good but still means it could be a few more weeks or today!  Come on out baby (it will be a few more weeks, I am sure)!  Luckily last night I felt better and slept all night!

Still 38 weeks!

I forgot to mention I was Strep B Negative!  I was Strep B positive with the last one!  I am so excited because it means no antibiotics!

Congrats to my cousin who had her baby last night, she has 3 boys and now a little girl!  I am so jealous, how did you get that baby to come out (we were due together)?

The doctor said they will not induce me until the 19th!  It went from having a c-section in 7 days to not having a baby for all most a month!  Not fair!

37 Weeks!

Doctors appointment today:

The doctor I saw I have never seen before but he prescribed all my picc line and home healthcare.  He managed all my hyperemesis issues though I have never met him.  My home healthcare nurse use to work with him and would tell me how good looking he was!  WELL SHE WAS RIGHT!  Nothing better then a HOT doctor!

GREAT NEWS:  BABY IS HEAD DOWN! 

C-Section was cancelled, I could not believe it when they did another ultrasound today (how many is that now 10?). Sunday night I thought I was having contractions really bad I described it to my hubby as really bad cramps, at one point we thought we should go to the hospital but I decided to wait it out.  I think that was the baby turning.

Everything else looked great blood pressure 110/70.....gained 2 pounds (I had just eaten though).

So now what will this baby be 2 weeks late like that last 3? Excited I do not have to have a c-section, not excited about not knowing when the baby will come!

Almost 37 weeks!

Well I am DONE!  With my 3 girls I never had back pain, had problems sleeping, or had to pee all the time!  This baby is a whole different story!  I pee like every 30 minutes all day and night, I minds well live in the bathroom!  I can not sleep to save my life, this baby is so much more active then the girls ever were.  And now I have really bad lower back pain that shoots down my legs and it hurts to walk.  Can I really go another 2 weeks?  Not to mention the 2-4 hours of nauseousness I still have to deal with everyday!

36 weeks!

Well today was my 36 week check up and this is what we found out:

  • I lost a pound.........weird since I have been eating like crazy.
  • My blood pressure was low - 100/70
  • They did my strep-B test (I was negative for the first 2 but positive for the last one)
  • The doctor did an internal exam and I am 1 centimeter dilated, but thick and long
  • The doctor was 100% positive the baby was NOT breach!  She showed me where the butt was and his leg and arms.  She said he was head down.
  • I disagreed with the doctor and told her he was BUTT down and I wanted an ultrasound.
  • I went over to ultrasound and sure enough he is BUTT down, breach as can be!  I was RIGHT!
  •  I went to scheduling and scheduled the c-section. 
  • It shows you to follow your gut feeling, another good example is everyone says  to try and move the baby around but I feel like there is a reason he is breach and I want to leave him alone.  Though I do NOT want a c-section I feel this is the safest way to get him out.

I am still sick everyday from 11am - 12 and feel like death for an hour, I hate it!  I HATE hyperemesis!
I was having braxton and hicks contractions last night for 2 hours, and it HURT!

34 weeks!

Had my check up:

  • Blood Pressure 117/60.........amazing how great it has been!
  • Gained a ton of weight! 5 pounds in 2 weeks!  BOO!  A total of 20 pounds so far this pregnancy!
  • Baby heart Rate 120's
  • Baby is BREACH! 
  • I go in 10 days and they will do an internal exam and see if indeed he is still BUTT down! I think he will be!  
The doctor office I go to has like 10 doctors so I don't always see the same one.  The one I saw today was one that I saw when I was the sickest I have ever been at the beginning with the hyperemesis (I have not seen her since)!  She walked in the room today and said, "I am so glad you are still alive!  You are the sickest patient I have ever seen!  I had no idea what to do to help you (She is the one who went and got another doctor)."  She said she thought the hospital for 20 weeks was the best place for me!  She was so cute and funny, I think I gave her a good scare! She genuine felt so bad for me!  She was happy to see at 34 weeks I was not still GREEN!
