Re: TTC Tuesday

  • Mommies:

    How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? Almost 4 months! 

    How do you feel? Exhausted. He was sleeping so well for so many weeks in a row. He has been waking several times a night again for the last week or so. 

    Any Milestones this week? First day at the babysitter was Friday.

    Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? I loathe washing bottles and H refuses to help. I'm sure I'm going to get home tonight after work, H has been home with him all day, and have to wash the bottles he drank while he was with H.

  • @willyh19, how has it been 4 months already?!

     

    Pregnant Girls:

    How many weeks: 27, some consider that 3rd trimester, other things say next week.  I'm ready to be in 3rd tri!  Home stretch!!

    How are you feeling? Much better.  I was at state fair all weekend, so my allergies got really bad.  Sunday evening was terrible.

    Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics?  I had my glucose test on Friday.  I passed the blood portion, but I did spill glucose and protein in my urine sample.  I don't really know what the glucose part of it means, but the protein is not a good sign.  I read a little on the glucose and it said when your pregnant some times it shows up in your urine.  Hopefully the glucose is nothing.

    Yesterday I had memory foam skin, just barely swollen.  The symptoms for my auto immune are protein in urine and high water retention that leads to swelling.  So, essentially the same symptoms as preeclampsia.  They will not be easily able to tell which problem I am having without a kidney biopsy.  Right now they just plan to monitor it, I think it's pretty likely that I'm going to end up on bed rest.  Hopefully it will not be anytime soon if it happens.

  • Pregnant Girls:

    How many weeks:35w3d

    How are you feeling?great...a little swollen. did too much and drank too little yesterday

    Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? got a lot done in the nursrey this weekend, which is great since I'm back at work! Watch out for a big AW post when I get home today :)

  • TTCers:

    Cycle/Month: 7/7

    CD/DPO: CD 24/ ?? DPO

    W2O or 2WW? 2WW

    Testing plans: last month my period came on the 15th, but it is usually due on the 12th of each month so I'm going to try REALLY hard not to use a HPT on the 12th of this month and just wait.  

    Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: If I got pregnant last cycle my due date would be in May 2015, which is when one of my job contracts expires....Plus, it's before wedding season. To me that seems like a weird coincidental sign so I'm trying not to think about it.

  • @mana8503 I was also GBS positive.  I was upset about it, but really, I didn't even notice the IV.  When my water broke, my doctor told me to go to the hospital right away, but I think he would have told me to do that regardless.

    @goatlady12 Your pregnancy seems to be moving quicker than mine did.  I can't believe you're in your 3rd tri!  I am sorry that you may be having your auto-immune or pre-eclampsia.  I hope that you're just swollen and not having a complication.  I've heard bed rest is no fun.

    Mommies:

    How old are your LOs (Little Ones)?  3 weeks

    How do you feel?  I feel good, tired.  I'm getting stressed about going back to work in 3 weeks.  I have to go this afternoon to meet with my sub for a little and I am heart broken.  I don't want to leave my tiny baby.

    Any Milestones this week?  O's bellybutton fell out.  She now has an adorable innie :)  She is sleeping at night in longer stretches. She went almost 7 hours last night (I know that's bad for breastfed babies, but she barely slept during the day yesterday and I was not waking her to eat.)

    Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics?  I guess my rant is above with how I'm feeling.  I also want to be out of this apartment and in the house.  It should be another couple of weeks.  We now have a mouse in the apartment, which I think has set me over the edge.  I told my dad I'm moving in a few weeks regardless of the condition of the house.
  • @sjs1013 - is she  back up to her birth weight? If so, you shouldn't need to wake her to feed. I was told by our pediatrician that if he wasn't waking to feed, just go with it.

  • @sjs1013  - yea, GBS just means you get pencillian before delievery.  Everyone gets an IV hook up so it's whatever (at least at my hospital).  I just think they are more prone to send you to L&D for close-ish contractions then just wait it out.  Like in my case, if they were enough to dilated me, I was going to L&D.  Just to be sure the antibiotic has time to take effect.   

    @goatlady12 - I really hope it all works out and no bedrest for you!  Welcome to 3rd tri!!!!

  • @sjs1013‌ if she is back to birthweight, I wouldn't stress about it. Caleb slept 5-6 hours consistently at night starting at 3 weeks. He added 1-2 hours to his night of sleep each month after, until he ended up at 12 hours. He's EBF still. He gets his nutrition during the day. If it becomes a habit, your body will adjust. I'd just make sure she eats every 2-3 hours during the day and gets at least 8 feeds in.
  • @WillyH19 and @mbuckley85 She is back at her birth weight and the doctor told us to feed her on demand and not to wake her up.  I've read that you shouldn't let breastfed babies go more than around 5 hours, but then I realized they tell you to try to get the baby to sleep from 12-6 at night and that is more than 5 hours.  I hope her longer sleeps get more consistent, last night was lovely!
  • My rule was to never wake a sleeping baby.
    If you are worried about supply in the beginning, you could always wake up and pump but i would rather sleep!

    I hope not, but looking on the bright side, at least then I'd get some reading done. ;)
