Hellobee Boards

@psw27: they are essentially a combo between gingersnaps and molasses cookies with some cayenne pepper added in. They worked wth my last pregnancy.

@littleblessings: I can only pray that I make it long enough to need these cookies! 35 + 3 today!

@mrsmacSLP: Wow! 1 more week! Sending good labor vibes your way

@littleblessings: I felt really swollen yesterday, but it seems to have passed. Hopefully it does for you too.

I can't believe we have less than a week left in March and we don't have any more babies yet!!

I have a dr. appt this afternoon. My guess is it'll probably be my GBS test and I think last time they also did a cervical check at the same time. I'm excited to see where I am even though I know it doesn't really mean anything about when labor might start. So curious!

@mrsmacSLP: wow less than a week! Woohoo! I'm so excited for you!

@littleblessings: I'm so happy you made it this far, you give me hope! I hope the swelling goes down!

@JennyPenny: hope your appointment goes well! I'm a little surprised some of our early in the month due dates haven't gone yet, I guess the babies all really want diamonds as their birth stone.

@bubblegum: I keep telling myself I refuse to complain about anything since I'm just grateful I've made it this far. That is getting harder and harder though

@bubblegum: 4/26... I highly doubt I'll go that late though. I'm guessing about 7-10 days after my last progesterone shot (which is Wednesday) so that's about April 5-8th. We'll see what baby has in mind though!

@bubblegum: I'm sure he will be fine! I've already made it 8 days longer than my first DS and he did great! I'm just so excited for all the babies to start arriving in our group!! It's getting real

@littleblessings: I was super swollen last night. I've been taking Epsom salt baths once a week or so and it really helps. Hope your swelling goes down!

@JennyPenny: I have the GBS test on wednesday. Blah!

My to-do list is starting to dwindle (yay!) although my house is still a disaster. I suppose with two kids at home, it'll never really be very clean lol. I don't have the energy to do much anymore, and DH isn't as big of a help as I need!

@JennyPenny: GIRL!!! You better spill! I need to know!!! Are you going to be our second April babe, in March?!

@bubblegum: @yellowbeach: Lol, you ladies crack me up! Alright, well it looked basically like a small wad of slighty bloody mucus, maybe the size of half my pinkie finger. However, it was in the toilet with a poop so its hard to say definitively where it came from, but it was separate... haha, so gross!!

@JennyPenny: OMGGGG!! Soooo what now?! I never lost my mucus plug so I don't know if that means labors about to start or what

@JennyPenny: oh wow!! I lost mine with my DS but was as my water was breaking. It probably was part of it! I was just reading an email from babycenter or one of those places that said its normal to lose chunks from 36 weeks on and it can re-grow.

@yellowbeach: what a sweetheart! That is some great weight gain!! How are you guys doing at home? I'm so glad you are finally enjoying maternity leave together at home!

@yellowbeach: Wow, she's grown so much! Looking great! How's it been being home?

@bubblegum: in an hour

@JennyPenny: How exciting! For what it's worth, I lost my mucus plug over weeks with #1 but was not at all dilated at 42 weeks and ended up induced. I never lost my mucus with #2 and had spontaneous, precipitous labor (start to finish in 1.5 hours). So don't get discouraged if the doctor doesn't see any progress down there today. Every labor is different!

@JennyPenny: Eeek!! So exciting! Hope it's not long for you now

@yellowbeach: Wow, she's grown so much! What a cutie so glad she's doing well!

@ValentineMommy: Haha yes to the never completely clean house My energy is almost gone at this point. I had a newborn session yesterday and I'm always a little sore afterwards, but man, I'm dying today! Three hours of constant up and down, bending, rocking baby, etc. I feel like an old lady (and I'm probably walking like one too!)

@JennyPenny: How freaking exciting is that!!!! So amped for you!!

@lilteacherbee: @psw27: @bubblegum: @mrsmacSLP: Thanks, ladies! Though it'll be a huge letdown if I'm still sitting here pregnant 4 weeks from now...

@JennyPenny: woohoo! Fingers crossed for you!

For some reason my DH is more concerned getting a play scape for my DD built and planned out than doing anything that has to do with the actual BABY THAT'S COMING. Argh! Our sprinkle is this weekend and I'm stoked about that because then I feel like I can finally out things away because we'll have a dresser by then and I can start washing everything. I have my growth scan this wed to plan out c section vs vbac. So I could have as little as 4 weeks/3 weekends before baby comes! Which is insane to me. Ack.

@MapleMoose: lol, his reasoning behind it is that it'd be something for her to do while we're busy with the baby. I finally yelled at him last night after he brought it up for the millionth time and he said he'd stop talking about it until after the nursery is done. I've also mentioned to him that we technically could only have 3 weekends left, 2 of which are completely booked with events on both Sat/Sun. It may have helped a little bit with him realizing how little time we have left, but he's distracted this week with work since it's the end of the quarter. Which I don't blame him. It's just crazy how fast time has been going. I really thought I'd have things finished by now.
