Baby shower at our house tomorrow at 1 pm. Cost of catered food $80. Cost of extra pieces of sod to fill in the dog's digging $22. Cost of flowers to relandscape a little bit $100 including mulch. Standing on front lawn watching the sprinklers water grass $0. Realizing all too late that I am standing in an ant pile, getting stung and with swollen ankles, pelvic pain and pressure dropped low at 34 weeks trying to 'run' all in front of hubby, priceless.....sigh...

My baby weighs 5 lbs 12 oz! Had my u/s today. Their error margin is plus or minus 14 ounces...so she could be 4 lbs, could be 6...who knows. The tech was wonderful and said she felt she had gotten good measurements and felt confident that baby was 5 lb 12 oz. My babies are big anyways :) I am so excited. She is head down too..whew. She has hair and chubby cheeks...I cannot wait to kiss them! I got the COOLEST pics of her feet...I will let you know when I post them. So awesome. Hope all is well with everyone. :)

also i read this; raspberry leaf tea is used to strengthen your uterus and help prevent pre mature labor and to help make your labor, when it begins, a little easier. It is like a vitamin for your uterus. No it will not bring on labor SO all of us wanting to go ealry and speed this up, some things i am reading are saying, it will slow down process by, not letting u go into pre matue labor, So what should I do, does nayone really know the truth, take it dont, it helps doesnt, is it just to help labor when it comes, casue i dont care about that I want it to come asap!

In about 3 hours I will be having my baby shower at work. I am so excited to eat a piece of cake, and it is always exciting to stop working an hour early. I can't wait!!

So for the past few weeks I have been feeling kinda weird! Dont know exactly how to explain it, but i feel kinda dizzy and nauseated, kinda hard to catch my breath and my vision gets kinda blurry! I feel this way many times throughout the day and it only last for a minute or so! Ive mentioned this to my doctor and he didnt seem to concerned..anybody else feeling this way or know why?

I am exhausted, after being out and about and taking off my walking under water shoes I feel like I have run a marathon, my body muscles in my arms and legs feel like they are going to give out, my legs more frequently than my arms. But in typing such as this, I have to stop 3-4 times to get the strength back. What the heck is that?

bellababy85 - 14.2 hours ago
SO this morning at work when I went to the bathroom, there was something that look like lining or some sort of tissue in the toilet. Mind you I only went pee and that's what came out. Anyone else have this happen, or know what it's from?

Just saw RACHEL918's post on the car seat situation...and I have to tell you ladies about the seat / stroller we ended up getting. We bought the Chicco (prounonced 'Key-Co') KeyFit 30 seat. We fell in love with the colors and the fact that it is one of the few infant carriers / car seats that is safety rated for up to 30lbs and 20 inches. Although...I haven't attempted to put it in our SUV yet...the posts that I have read about the car seat on babiesrus.com seem to be very favorable for big vehicles. The other thing we liked, was the stroller that the seat fits with...it is great! Especially since my husband is 6-3, we needed something that was easy for him. It has an adjustable handle so he can raise it when he is walking with the baby. The biggest 'pro' for us was that the seat fits into the stroller and it stays in place. With our daughter, we had a Graco system and the infant seat never stayed in place. We checked at the store this time around...and they were still not secure. If we had the infant seat in place, and hit a curb or the corner of an aisle in a store...the whole infant seat moved. It made me so nervous I would just take her out of the seat and put her in the stroller without it! We were happy to find the Chicco stroller / seat! We decided on the 'Cortina' in 'Adventure'.

My doctor got on my case this week about how 'exhausted' I look. Well, maybe it's because I can not sleep for more than 2 hours at a stretch without waking up to use the bathroom! Or eating some crackers for my heartburn! Or because baby has decided to play Jumanji in there! So, she tried to prescribe sleeping pills to me. I am afraid of taking anything that might harm my baby. The doctor said that it would be safe, but I am a little hesitant to believe that. Has anybody taken anything to help them sleep? Right now, I have refused the scrip... I am just trying to hold out for 35 more days. I mean, I know that I won't expect to sleep through the night when baby makes his debut, but at least we can take naps when we are home from work for a few weeks. Any advice or anecdotes would be appreciated. Thanks!

We kinda had the same problem with our car seats with them not fitting. We had just bought a new Saturn Vue 3 months before I found out I was pregnant with #3, and when we bought it we looked in the back to see if a 3rd car seat would ever fit and we figured it would. LOL.. But then when I got pregnant we tried to fit the 3rd seat in and there was no way they were all going to be comfortable back there. SO 3 weeks ago we went out and bought a new mini van and I LOVE IT!!!

Hi ladies i know that this is not a pregnancy question but i was wondering... Will it be dumb to have my daughters birthday party in october if her birthday is in september? see my nieces birthday is 9/20and my daughters bday is 9/21 and my sister and i want to have a joint party but she is going away october 4 and wants to save money for the trip and then have party in mid october. will that be dumb or is it okay?

Rachel918 - 16.4 hours ago
What kind of carseats do you all have and why?? I need a different one and i am in love with what i have but it doesnt fit on our suv right.

MELINDA73072 - 21.1 hours ago
Hello ladies. Im from wk 26 & have a question...1st off, I'm so stressed right now. I live in Florida, & my brother is getting married in NY 9 days before my due date.By car it's 22 hrs. 2 1/2 by plane, & 28 by train. Seems the quickest way is by plane, but I'm terrified of them & scared of heights. Dr. said its ok 2 fly, but I'm not so sure. If I cant go, my mother & brother want me 2 at least send my 13 & 14 year old by themself. Everyones giving me a hard time about it, but I'm just so scared 2 send them so far away & I'm scared something may go wrong on the plane that I would lose my only 'real family' I have, which are my kids. I'm not all that close 2 my mom.Matter of fact, she just found out last week that I'm pregnant. I was scared 2 tell her cause i knew she would down me 4 being a single parent. But I feel that I've done a better job than her & I'm not a golddigger or depend on men to take care of me. My question is should i not even attempt 2 go?Should i send my kids even though it terrifies me? Am i wrong for feeling the way i do? I feel like i'm going 2 be miserable just 2 make everyone happy. I appreciate any advice you ladies can give me & allowing me 2 vent a little.

I had an US on Monday, and the baby weighs 4lbs 3ozs. - he's in the 25th percentile...the doctor didn't suggest changing my diet and they said that this size was still normal.

Well yesterday while I was waiting with my sister at the ER for her sprained ankle, I was having some contractions and cramping. I was a little worried. I headed home and took a hot bath and things calmed down. I was still feeling really achy this morning so I went to the dr. My dr was out of town, and I had to see a different doc. He checked my cervix and said that it is still long and hard (so no baby for a while...which..I still have 6 weeks, so I'm ok with that) and maybe a 'fingertip' dialated. He asked me how big the baby was and I said 'I'll find out tomorrow, I have an ultrasound'. 'I think she may be breech'....oh JOY! I hope to goodness she is not breech...I'm not going to panic just yet...but I really really really don't want a c-section ;( Keep me in your thoughts, and I hope little Emily cooperates and is heading for south! I will post tomorrow after the ultrasound

Rachel, yesterday was my first appointment with a chiropractor for similar problems. He actually told me that your spine can cause alot of problems for your body, ecspecially with the added weight of being pregnant. I went to see him again today, he ended up taking me off of work for good until after the birth, but he also has helped my problems out alot so far.

lilmama17 - 1 days ago
my aunt was told she was having a 10 lb baby, and when he was born he was only 8 lbs ..

Being dehydrated can make you go into preterm labor too. As for what you should bring. You really dont need much. Some clothes to wear when you go home, bathroom supplies, a robe if you want to cuz of family visiting. Camera, video recorder what ever pleases you. Maybe a change of clothes for dad. A going home outfit for baby, a boppy if your breastfeeding (it will help even just to hold the baby) ummmm....all your info. birthing plan if you made one. And I cant think of anything else off the top of my mind. Alot of the books and website tell you to bring a lot of other stuff that you really dont need. Oh yea I have read some people bringing there own pillows too. But feel free to add something if I forgot anything which i am sure I did.

Just to let any new moms know.. Test your car seats out now!! We just got a new jeep cherokee, and we got a chicco carseat for a gift from my mom.. Well the damn thing doesnt even fit in the car lol... So i suggest testing out carseats at the store and put them in your car before purchasing or registering for them!!! On another note... im still sooo swollen and my left foot feels like its going to fall off i am in soo much pain i feel like every bone on the top of that foot is broken, im thinking its from only wearing flip flops and not getting support but wouldnt you think it would be both feet not one??/ ANy suggestions?

I just want to give some of you 1st time moms a little advice. I know they all say drink lots of water and keep hydrated, but you really should. I learned the hard way 1 of the things that can happen if you don't. I went in with preterm labor and they couldn't start an IV. My veins kept rolling. They blew 3 veins while trying to give me an IV. It was the most painful thing. They would get the needle in and dig around under my skin until they would finally hit the vein, then it would blow up. They finally got the IV started. But I am bruised and more sore than ever!!! They told me if I had been hydrated they don't think they would have had as hard a time starting the IV. I didn't have any problems like that with my 1st. So it's so easy to drink more water and PowerAde and spare myself the pain when I need an IV again! Good luck to all!

hey does anybody know exactly wat we should be bringing with us to the hospital when we are in labor?

HppyMomToBeRS - 1 days ago
I have just been reading some of the post on the size of your babies. did you you know they are not exact. Those ultrasound can be 3-4 weeks of on your weight of the baby. I would not diet just because you are being told your baby are big. To me that is kind of scary. Maybe all doctors beleive different things.

It started with cleaning the bathroom, then to countertops, to scrubbing the toaster oven, then the sink. Then cleaning out the microwave, to wiping down the refrigerator, dishwasher stove and cabinets

To the ladies who responded to my last comment... Are you going to be recieving the short term disability through your workplace, or your state? I don't think my workplace offers short term disability for maternity leave. I do qualify for FMLA. Thanks!!

At 34 weeks and 4 days my little girl was 5lbs 10oz so if some of you guys are being told your 4 lb babys are big, I'm having a monster!

Medical studies have shown that red raspberry leaf can be consumed safely during pregnancy and can decrease the length of labor and decrease the number of interventions used such as AROM, assisted delivery and cesarean delivery.1 Red raspberry leaf also seems to help prevent pregnancies from pre or post term gestation (delivering too early or too late). how shitty i thought it brought it on not prevented u from going early:( i was so exciyted to drink it to

Christy - I'm 34 weeks and had a ultrasound on tuesday. My gyni told me the baby is about 4,4 pounds and that that's too big and to cut out all sugars!! I live in Italy though so maybe they have different ideas over here. I wouldn't worry about it.

bethanne - 1 days ago

Have any of you ever heard of women recieving short-term disability benefits during and for a short time after pregnancy, like, if your doc says you are not able to work anymore for whatever reason???

kara8385 - 1 days ago
Ok, I have been having dreams that I am going into labor. Each dream is different and different people are there, but each time my b/f is not there and after Mason comes out I am always looking for my b/f and asking where he is at and everyone tells me they forgot to call him and I start freaking out that he doesn't know his son is born. I am starting to think that he will not be there when I go into labor and it really upsets me. I can't wait though to hold my little one. Every dream he has a full head of hair when he comes out.

Christy - 2 days ago

Holy heartburn these last few days...I keep feeling like theres acid sitting in my lungs and throat eroding away the surface...it burns sooo bad!! On another note...I can't waiiit to hold this baby!! I'm starting to get really excited now! I'm okay with being pregnant for the next few weeks but the idea of holding and kissing and giving soo much attention to this little girl sounds soo much better. Thank God we still have so much more to do b4 she comes or else I wouldn't be able to keep my mind off her getting here sooner:)
