I'm 10 lbs more than you, yay for u/s's mines march 1st. Did you get the ds test done?

Phuket: I donated my hair once a loong time ago, like in high school. But I can't keep from dying it so I can't donate haha. I did, the last two summers, have it all shaved off for a charity though. I'm growing it out now and I hate it haha

Oh gosh, I'm so sorry to hear about your daughter. *hug* She's in my thoughts!

James: Not yet. We're waiting to find out the gender. Still have a few weeks to do that. No biggie, we don't have the money yet anyway. Plus it's a little early for my tastes to have stuff laying around. So much of the stuff from my daughter got ruined in the many moves we had though.   We're going to have to buy a lot... so may as well get gender specific since this is our last for sure.

Lindsey: OMG, "only" 250k! Whoa... hubby makes $37k if we're lucky. lol

Dylan: congrats!  

Weights: I"m 259.2lbs today...so if that makes anyone feel better lol. I did start at 275lbs though. This baby is sucking the life outta me! haha

You def dont look it! are you tall?

Quoting *Lindsey*(16 weeks):" You def dont look it! are you tall?"

not super tall, im 5'7
i like to think my fat is equally distributed. lol execept not pregnant my belly is super flabby it still is but rounding out now.

So my appt went well today. Just a general appt. I waited longer in the room waiting on the doc then I did talking to him. It is okay. The lady seeing him before me had just hit her due date so they were talking about the next steps. I love that he will let you go up to 10 days past your due date before inducing you.

I am really sad that I only have one more visit with him before I move. At least my next appt we are doing my gender scan and if all goes well my hubby will be able to go.

thats the same amount of days they will let us go past ours here too.

Quoting *Lindsey*(16 weeks):" thats the same amount of days they will let us go past ours here too."

I have heard of some OBs in my area that will schedule your induction the day after your due date.

Quoting Chris's Mommy:" I have heard of some OBs in my area that will schedule your induction the day after your due date."

they might do that here too if you asked. But they will let you go as long as 10 days after before they induce.

So this is random and probably tmi... But every time I have been pregnant, I have been horrible constipated. This time, I have diarrhea/loose stools ALL the time. I have to 'go' like 2-3 tomes a day! Is that normal?! You'd think this being #5, I'd know, but I have Neber had this. Sorry about the Tmi...idk who else to ask.

I'm just throwing this out there, but you can decline medical treatment that you feel is not in your best interest. If you feel you are not ready, your doctor does not "let you go" 10 days over, you have a right to refuse an induction.

thats how i have been this pregnancy, and my last. both times id have to get up early in the morning because im having terrible stomach cramps and go to the bathroom and then go like 2 more times during the day. ive been having some issues the past few days but id rather be like than be constipated.

I'm so sorry!! We're here if you need to talk any time! I'm praying that everything works out for her and for you!! Keep us updated!

thank you, I took her in last night to do some more blood tests, and she said the should be in sometime tonight. the nuero felt confident though that it was the combination of medicines.
