Well for the second day in a row, the contractions totally stop during the day! Makes me dread what's in store for me tonight! </p> <p>I sent my mom home (1.5 hours away) yesterday but I might be calling her back today to keep me company! DH is trying to work until the last minute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2217073 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 10:22:53 +0000 Eko 2217073@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rpparker: the back pain is crazy. After two hours of having the contractions in my back every 2 minutes no way could I go any longer and called for an epidural! No shame. Definitely see though if the bath tub helps for the meantime! :goodluck: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2217068 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 10:19:29 +0000 Jess1483 2217068@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rpparker: Hope they pick up!!</p> <p>Unfortunately, my toddler now appears to have a fever. It was finally a day where I felt I'd get some consistent play time with him, and he's downstairs watching a movie (DH works from home, so he's down there with him) while I'm upstairs with baby. It's really hurting my heart (even though he's perfectly fine watching his movie...) I'm trying to keep them separated for now, and hoping that when the ibuprofen my husband gave him wears off, that the fever isn't really there and it was all in our imaginations... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2217046 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 09:55:17 +0000 MamaB 2217046@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rpparker: YAY! That's exciting progress!! Get in the bathtub for a while! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2217044 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 09:51:52 +0000 LindsayInNY 2217044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rpparker: Ahhh, yaaay!!!! Keep us posted and good luck!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2217040 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 09:47:12 +0000 rpparker 2217040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh the contractions! Every 20-30 minutes since about 2 am! They are just starting to average out to about one/hour but the back pain is consistent. If they pick back up I will probably call even though I'm sure I already know they will tell me to what until they are closer together! You natural mommas are amazing! I was already moaning for the epidural last night! :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2217027 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 09:28:06 +0000 LindsayInNY 2217027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaB: Thanks!! I hope I can do it... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2216869 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 05:58:17 +0000 MamaB 2216869@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNY: that could be a good sign!! I know it's frustrating at the end when every little thing makes you wonder if it's labor. Hang in there! Also, good luck with your natural birth plan. You can do it! I'll be thinking about you because natural, unmedicated birth was my goal too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2216850 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 03:07:45 +0000 Ash 2216850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rpparker: i went into labor the day before my induction. It's possible! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2216848 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 02:23:34 +0000 MamaB 2216848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rpparker: maybe you'll go before the induction!! I did a lot of the things you're doing before Millie came. Pedicure, middle of the day milkshakes, DVR watching, napping. Enjoy the time to yourself before her arrival! I'll be thinking about you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2216689 Tue, 23 Jun 2015 17:45:11 +0000 LindsayInNY 2216689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been going #2 a bunch today so of course I'm over reading into it now... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2216679 Tue, 23 Jun 2015 17:25:02 +0000 rpparker 2216679@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: Thanks! I got my nails done, haircut tomorrow, ate ice cream at 2 in the afternoon while watching Real Housewives, took a nap so I'm doing ok soaking the final days to myself! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2216425 Tue, 23 Jun 2015 13:36:26 +0000 78h2o 2216425@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rpparker: that's dissapointing, but remember that things can change quickly. With DD#1, I was only a half cm the day before I went into labor. Hang in there!</p> <p>I keep checking in to read updates and see how the rest of our June mamas are doing...even if I'm not posting! Hope everyone is doing well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2216350 Tue, 23 Jun 2015 12:41:43 +0000 Corduroy 2216350@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rpparker: Sorry you're at 0. All the contractions may be baby getting into the right position for an easy labor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2216207 Tue, 23 Jun 2015 10:52:50 +0000 LindsayInNY 2216207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rpparker: You and me both! We'll see soon enough... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2216185 Tue, 23 Jun 2015 10:32:10 +0000 rpparker 2216185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNY: Today is my due date which just made the zero hurt even more! </p> <p>Good luck tomorrow! Hope you've had some progress! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2216176 Tue, 23 Jun 2015 10:24:53 +0000 LindsayInNY 2216176@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rpparker: All those and a zero?! How is that possible?? GAH! What's your official due date? I go in tomorrow so hopefully I'm more than just 1 cm... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2216172 Tue, 23 Jun 2015 10:18:19 +0000 rpparker 2216172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNY: Nope! I thought last night might have been the night. Contractions really kicked in and I started timing them some. They were about a minute long, every 20-30 minutes from about 9pm to 1 am. They never got stronger and just went away! I had an appointment this morning and I'm STILL a zero. I though for sure after all the action last night I would have made some progress. </p> <p>So I have an induction set for Sunday night if I make it until then! Lots of factors with my doctor just made it easier to go ahead and set an end date. I already took the day off work so just trying to relax. </p> <p>How are you? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2216163 Tue, 23 Jun 2015 10:13:16 +0000 LindsayInNY 2216163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rpparker: Any news?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2215524 Mon, 22 Jun 2015 16:47:22 +0000 Eko 2215524@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rpparker: those sound like good signs to me! Glad you are finishing up work!</p> <p>@LindsayInNY: Hope DH feels better soon! My DH got sick the day after we came home from the hospital and it was miserable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2215423 Mon, 22 Jun 2015 15:25:44 +0000 cascademom 2215423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rpparker: nausea and period like cramps sound like a good sign. My contractions both times were like super intense period cramps about a thousand times more painful than period cramps, but located in the same spot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2215022 Mon, 22 Jun 2015 09:59:33 +0000 LindsayInNY 2215022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rpparker: I'm praying that it passes through him. He went back to bed and just woke up a bit ago feeling energy-less. I'm just drugging him up in the meantime! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2214986 Mon, 22 Jun 2015 09:36:53 +0000 rpparker 2214986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNY: Oh no! Hope it's just a 24 hour bug! </p> <p>I'm going to try and not come into the office anymore this week after today but we will see. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2214980 Mon, 22 Jun 2015 09:33:12 +0000 LindsayInNY 2214980@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rpparker: Those sound like good signs to me!!!</p> <p>39w3d here - at my last out of office appointment and then it's working from home and last minute things until little miss comes! She needs to hold off in the meantime though... DH woke up yesterday feeling like he was coming down with something. I thought he was just being dramatic. Nope, woke up worse this morning. So drugging him up and praying this is a passing thing! I don't want to be in labor while he's sick. Ugh, such bad timing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2214923 Mon, 22 Jun 2015 09:06:24 +0000 rpparker 2214923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Still pregnant! 39+6 today! And I'm at work this morning :meh: </p> <p>I did have some bad period like cramps last night with some nausea so maybe my body is getting the hint? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/89#post-2213561 Fri, 19 Jun 2015 12:17:50 +0000 LindsayInNY 2213561@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rpparker: At least we both know we're in the home stretch now!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/88#post-2213555 Fri, 19 Jun 2015 12:13:21 +0000 MrsBrewer 2213555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNY: @rpparker: I'm patiently following you guys, and hoping for labor news soon!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/88#post-2213543 Fri, 19 Jun 2015 12:01:25 +0000 rpparker 2213543@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNY: Well know that I'm right there with you! :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/88#post-2213536 Fri, 19 Jun 2015 11:55:07 +0000 LindsayInNY 2213536@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rpparker: Nada. I walk a good amount for work as it is (usually 8-10,000 steps a day, if not more). Yoga ball was delivered yesterday so I just need to inflate it! Back pain isn't as often as it was Monday/Tuesday. So now I feel like I'm just hanging out... *shrugs* </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/june-2015-mamas/page/88#post-2213521 Fri, 19 Jun 2015 11:41:05 +0000 rpparker 2213521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayInNY: Anything going on with you?! I've been walking, bouncing on the yoga ball, eating spicy foods and nothing...some stronger BH and some back pain but other than that...nothing. </p>
