re: Official June 2013 Due Date Buddies (Pt. 3)

Quoting DifferentDay:" ahh! I have a pair of pjs like that from ON that's why I asked   stupid washer or dryer ate the ribbon ... [snip!] ... set up for Aaron. This is so stressful. And the chick we were dealing with for all of this, has been replaced by another. UGH! "

If my ribbon on my pants went missing they probably wouldn't fit me anymore.   So hopefully that doesn't happen lol.

I seem to carry low with all of my pregnancies.. that whole "boys carry low, girls carry high" (or is it vice versa?) thing is crap because I had a boy with the last one and a girl this time around and they were both chillin at the pit of my stomach lol. My last pregnancy it just seemed like my belly was shaped differently.. it was more of just my belly poking out but this time around my hips have definitely gotten wider and my stomach's wider too. I feel huge!

Yeah that's why I got tricked into thinking I was having a boy because she's so low. I made my 4D appointment for next Sunday on the 24th. Wish me luck! Last time she was snuggled into the placenta or something so you couldn't see her as clearly, so I hope I can get a better shot of her face. I'm so excited!

Also, do any of you ladies know if it's safe to take AZO cranberry pills when you get a UTI? Because of the problems with my insurance I don't have a doctor just yet and won't be able to see my new OB for another three weeks so I don't have anybody to call right now.

It could just be your body, I don't really believe any of those pregnancy myths.. although it's fun to believe them when you don't know the gender yet lol.

And good luck! Yours is two days before mine.   Hopefully she'll let you get a good look at her.. last ultrasound mine was covering her face, but we managed to get one good shot. My 4D ultrasound lady told me to drink something sweet and not to eat two hours prior, maybe you should try that too.

I dunno about cranberry pills.. I used to take em before I got pregnant and stopped when I found out I was pregnant, but I never bothered asking lol I just stopped taking em cuz I didn't have a doctor yet at the time. Lemme know when you find out though lol.

Congrats!!!

Just to be safe, cranberry juice can still work right?

I wish I could get a 4D ultrasound but SO is all "since we're not having a baby shower we need to save up money" sucks but I guess it's more of a surprise when I deliver right? Everyone is telling me it will be a boy because I'm kinda carrying low but.. who knows..With my son I was round like a basketball and this time it's more oblong. I still have my fingers crossed for some pink in my life though lol 

Yeah straight cranberry juice is still good. Not the sugary kind but the pure cranberry juice. It's just too tart for me that's why I wanted to do the pills. I saw a thread on here somewhere about people recommending AZO but on reading more about it I guess you still want to get the green light from the docs. Just when I thought I had it all sorted out I need to switch to a different OB that it's in network for my primary insurance. Ugh. What a pain in the grass.

I dunno when I'll get an appointment in with another OB so wish me luck there. I just want to make it till next Sunday so I can at least see the baby via the 4D ultrasound for some reassurance since i'm stuck without care for awhile.

Aww, why aren't you having a baby shower?
And don't believe the myths! lol They've never worked for me. I mean.. it's a 50/50 chance so they could always be right. But if you're hoping for a girl.. who knows, maybe it'll turn out to be a girl. There ARE a lot of June girls in here lol.

Idk about AZO pills but regular cranberry pills are safe. I take two a day. So is straight cranberry juice. I hate that kind so I drink cran-apple by ocean spray or Walmart/Kroger brand. I also soak in a warm bath w dial antibacterial soap (orange). UTI clears up in a week. I avoid caffeine n choc during that time bc it exacerbates the UTI. I pee nonstop n wipe real good after, jump in the shower n wash up w the dial soap. I avoid sex too. but if u do, pee before n after. make him wash beforehand as well. Otherwise I'd be spending tons of money every 2-3 months on hosp/dr visits n prescriptions. Flush ur body too w lots n lots of water. To ease pain- Tylenol and/or lay curled up in fetal position on left side, use heating pad if desired.

sooo i really really need to fly cross country on April 1. i'll be 30 week. wonder if she'll say it's ok.
my next U/s is thursday

If you're not high risk I heard cut off time is 36 weeks. Be careful of swelling though. Heard high altitude increases it. Good luck.

Chris were are you heading?


Ok ladies i FINALLY got my laptop fixed! WOOHOO. So a little pic share update!

This was at 23 weeks and my little boy.


This is my most recent weekly shot from last week! YAY BELLY.


And a little sample of my belly growth! I cant believe how fast this one is going! Im not mentally ready for another baby just yet!


Last week he was measuring just under 3lbs, my csection is 9 weeks away unless otherwise specified by my specialist. Bi weekly appts have commenced with my general ob. Im up 26lbs and praying for not much more!

Hope you ladies are doing well!!!!

I know I keep saying it but i'm so jealous of how good everybody looks having gained their pregnancy weight (and you don't look like you gained anything but a belly) and still have a nice bump. I honestly just have gotten fatter, it's almost like I just put on a ton of weight and I'm not pregnant or something.

I ran into a Sister from church that I love so much who helped me with confirmation last year and she was stunned to see me. When I told her I was 6 months preg, she was like "Ahh.. I was wondering if you just put on some weight.."

I was like "See?!?! I knew that's what everyone would think!!" My mom said my belly is more obvious now but it actually isn't super obvious just yet. Meh!

But way to go mamas, I am so excited that our 3rd tris are already underway/coming soon. I want to hold my baby already!
