Guest guest Posted August 7, 2001 Report Share Posted August 7, 2001 Kim, Hey Sweetie... I'm so glad you are progressing nicely. I hope and pray your labor is quick and relatively easy. Since you are already getting a head start on things, that might be the way it goes. Aren't you getting excited? It's hard to believe that it's almost time for you to meet your sweet, little Christian. {{{HUGS}}} Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2001 Report Share Posted August 7, 2001 Kim Hello! I just keep comparing myself to you and I still have no hip pain or low cramps. Finally yesturday my braxton hicks hit in my low belly instead of up high. So, I finally feel like I am having something happening in the way of labor. But you definitely are showing signs..you have beeen for like 2 weeks!! I really think it could be any day for you. Sorry about your blood pressure, but I can relate, it is hard to sit still these days even though we feel tired! Sorry to hear about your mil. I pray she has a speedy recovery and goes home soon. Keep me posted on your progress! Take care, 38 Weeks...right behind you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 7, 2001 Report Share Posted August 7, 2001 : Yes, I feel like it could be any time also, I am like a ticking time bomb! I have been feeling this way for some time. I hope that Christian decides to make his entrance soon, I am not sure how much more cramps and pressure I can take though. I know it is for a good reason, but it will not be good to get to labor and delivery time and be exhausted from all the pre-work. Don't worry about not feeling any pains,etc. My friend just had a baby 6 weeks ago, she was 2 cm dilated for several weeks, felt no pains and aches what so ever and was at the doc during hte day for her weekly check, he told her not any time soon, she would most likely need to be induced. She went home, 3 hours late water just popped and baby was born 8 hours later. I guess maybe you feel nothing and water breaks or maybe you feel alot and start with contractions, hard to say, every one is so different - and you never know what you are until it is over!

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2001 Report Share Posted August 7, 2001 Kim, Woo Hoo sounds like it won't be long now. I do hate to hear your bp is high, do you think it's just stress. Here's hoping when you go back on Thursday it'll be back to normal again or that your little one will make his appearance so soon you won't have to go back.

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2001 Report Share Posted August 7, 2001 Kim, 1-2 cm is great! Hopefully your bp will behave until baby shows up. The good news is that even if you get pg induced hypertension, they can deliver baby safely into your arms, and your bp will go back to pre-pg soon after delivery. Good luck, and don't forget to lay on your left side a lot! It will help the bp stay low. Take care, DeeAnn p.s.

So far everything seems to be checking out ok, maybe it was just exhaustion, or she is not getting proper blood flow to her heart. She should come home tonight.I had my weekly doc appt today. I am 1-2 cm dilated the doc said - thank god! I have been feeling so much pressure and cramping, I am just glad that it is for a reason. This baby is so low, I am hoping that means the labor will be quick (I can be hopeful for a first timer, even if it doesn't come true) He says it can be antime. I gained another pound. The only bad thing is that my blood pressure was up, it has been rising each week, today 148, which is to high he said. I have to go back to doc on Thursday to get it taken again.

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2001 Report Share Posted August 7, 2001 R, Thank you, my mil is doing better today. She came home, and all her tests were negative, so they are not sure what happended. Maybe just exhaustion. She is happy to be home, she was worried the baby would come while she was in the hospital, and it is a different hospital. I told her her would wait to make his appearance till his grandma could be there. Glad to hear your fil is doing better, I know what a rough time this is now.

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2001 Report Share Posted August 7, 2001 DeeAnn, Thanks, I know he will arrive soon, just when! I go back to check on bp on Thursday, and then we shall see what the doc will decide to do if it is still high. Glad to hear about the baby, that is such great news. Did you tell Daisy she was going to be a big sister yet?

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2001 Report Share Posted August 7, 2001 , Thanks, we are so anxious and excited to meet him, we wish he was ready now. I to am hoping that maybe my body is doing a lot of the hard work now, and labor will go fast. My mom told me that she only had cramps for the day, and when her water broke, I was born with one push 3 hours later, and I was her first baby. Also, all ladies on my moms sides had easy labors, hopes that means it comes down through the genes! I hope Emma and mommy are doing well. Kim 38w, 5d > Kim, > > Hey Sweetie...

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2001 Report Share Posted August 7, 2001 Dana, Thanks, but I do not think it is stress, because I am very calm lately. Something happen last week, and I decided not to get stressed about anything, just let it happen. Maybe sub-consciously (not sure how to spell that!), or what it is. It has been rising slowly the last 3 visits. I feel fine with that, I would never have known it was high unless he told me. I go back in two days to check it again. Glad to hear you had a good weekend, it sounds like so much fun. Just think, pretty soon there will be 3 of you to go on these excursions! Hope you are feeling well.
