re: JULY 2008

Also I just wanted to wish everyone good luck! I can't believe we are all becoming mommas this month!!! YAY TO US!!!

I was having crazy contractions the other day and ended up going into L&D and of coarse they stopped... well actully they didn't stop they just were very weak, but still coming pretty quick, like between 4-6 minutes. I am also 80% effaced still and at -1 postition. The midwife said that when my water does break it should happen pretty quick because of his position. So that's so good news. I really am over this pregancy, and I'm sure you all are too.

LABOR DUST TO US!

Today I am 37 weeks and 2 days. I go in for my 37 week appointment. I have been having contractoins all day yesterday and today but I know the doctor still won't check for dialation until next week. :-( I wanna hold my little guy andalso be able to walk. My feet are so swollen it freaks people out. It feels like I am walking on bruises! :-( Nothing... not even raising my feel is helping me get the swelling to go down.

I hope all of you ladies are doing well. I know personally, I just want to pop. I spend Saturday night back in the hospital. I had the lovely experience of contractions every 6 minutes. After being at the hospital for 30 minutes, my little girl decided to change her mind. According to the doctor then, I was 2 cm dialated and 60 percent effaced. Since then I have had shooting pains throughout my cervix so I am hoping once I go back for my checkup this week I will be more dialated or effaced. I have had some blood, so I guess we will see

Good afternoon mommies!!!! Yea its another week into JULY!! its our big month and its really getting close!!! I'm so excited!!!

how are all of you ladies doing???

Today is Carter's one month birthday....his due date was two days ago but he is already a month old now....here is a pic of him hanging out on the 4th of july


and his first time in the ocean on july 1st with daddy

VERY Very CUTE!!!

well i was in L&D all day today it started as just a quick BPP and NST but she started thinking i had pre eclampsia bcuz my bp was a few over(WOW) so they took blood and had me on the monitor and everything well at 1 point his heart rate dropped all the way down into the high 30s and they got scared(as well as me!) and they started watching him really close!

the on call dr ended up starting me on patocine so i could get 3 contractions in 10 min and see if it affected himat all and it did but not enough for them to worry so they ended up sending me home and told me to come back thurs for my scheduled induction!

i could have been induced today like the oncall atually gave me the choice of the test or a induction but i hadnt ate all day and i was tierd plus my room is really really dirty rite mow(today was laundry and cleaning day ) so i said to try the test but anyways i go back thurs and get my induction so he will be here soon enough! lol but they put me on stict bedrest and told me i wasnt aloud to do anything like house work or laundry or anything i have to stay in bed but i am aloud to have sex!!! so i am like wow!!

I'm glad you and the lil one are doing good. I can't believe you are almost a mommy......3 more days!

He's so cute and getting so big! I can't wait for my lil man to be here so i can take pics too!

Jackie--- dont think I am ignoring your text..my service is weird right now and my text is not working but it will be back up but I am recieving yours so dont stop. ...I swore you would get induced today tho!

Anyway I went to the doctor today and I am 30% effaced. I don't know exactly what that means... I know it is the cervix softening but I still don't understand. I am not dialated at all though. The doctor does not think I will be late tho.

I have the edemia (is that what it is the swelling of the hends and feel and legs) and it is so bad it feels like I am walking on bruises. My doctor says if it gets worse he will induce me Monday. OMG can you believe that?? Enrique wants me to get induced today bc he is confusing edemia with preclamsia but I told him it is not the same thing and we will find out next monday what will happen.

OMG .. so yeah i am confined to bed rest with my feet high high up

I wanna cry I am in so much uncomfortableness and pain in my feet.
