Born & Birth stories



You may feel as if you have been pregnant forever at this point. It might be hard to imagine being pregnant for another ten weeks, but your baby still has a lot of growing and developing to do! By this time, your baby's crown-to-rump length is a little over 10.8 inches and the total length of your baby is about 17 inches! Your baby weighs about 3 pounds now. Your uterus can be felt about 4 inches above your bellybutton. Your uterus, baby, placenta and the amount of fluid will get larger over the next ten weeks. You should be gaining about a pound a week at this time.

Because you are getting larger, you are probably becoming slower and clumsier. You should try to be careful to avoid dangerous falls. Good posture when sitting and standing can help you feel better during your pregnancy. You also should be rolling over on your side to get up after lying down because your muscles have stretched to accommodate your growing uterus.

Even though your baby is cushioned by the amniotic fluid, she can feel and respond to pain. Your baby now does `practice breathing` to get ready for life outside of your womb. If you have an ultrasound at this time, you will be able to see this. If your baby swallows amniotic fluid down the wrong passage, she will still get hiccups that are noticeable by you. If your baby were born at this time, she would be able to keep herself warm.

The skin begins to smoothen as fat deposits accumulate underneath. The fat insulates and is an energy source.

Had my 3D/4D today also. My little man liked his hand in the way. So not that great of shots and this was my 2nd time also. He did give us 'The Finger' one time and the 'Peace Sign' but that was it. I think he has full eyelashes because they were showing up so well on the images.

Thank you everyone for your prayers. hannah and i are doing ok. life just doesnt make sense right now. i know what i want but i feel like im being held back from it all. i dont want to lose my husband, but if it comes down to him or my daughter i will deffinatly choose her. i cant get on here much... i kinda lack the computer lol... my phone works on this web site when it wants to... anyone that has texting and would like to stay in contact that way can send me a comment and i will reply privately with my cell phone number. again, thanks for all the prayers and thoughts! i really appreciate it all! -- Tara

Today is going by too slow at work. My back is killing me! Every single part of my belly feels tight. Normally, some area of it is soft. I can't tell where or how she's laying because the it feels like she's taking up the whole space in there. Not that it's stopped her from kicking the hell out of my ribs. I'm trying to eat smaller meals but it doesn't seem to be working. I get too hungry! I feel so exhausted. Can't wait to crawl into bed... still 4 hours left to go. *sigh*

Hello ladies I went for my 3D sono this morning and my lil boy did not want to cooperate. he had his arms and legs in his face and would not budge lol.this is the second time he does this so we give up he just doesn't want to be seen til birth. but all is perfect and he weighs 3 1/2 lbs.I can't wait to hold him.

danigirl85 - 3.9 hours ago
Hi all good to be in week 30! I think baby flipped on me. I know baby had his/her head down 2 days ago and yesterday i didnt feel baby move much at all. Now baby is hiccuping up at top instead of really low, and no kicking into my ribs. At least it doesnt matter which way baby is for me. I am getting nervous about meeting the surgeon though.

sprout1 - 5.1 hours ago
Babygirl, I think that just means your baby is measuring a little bigger than how far along you are. I think 2 weeks ahead or behind is usually normal.

babygirl0330 - 5.4 hours ago
Hi ladies! Just saw the dr and now sitting here waiting to get my blood drawn for the glucose test. She said I'm measuring 2 weeks ahead. Does that change my due date?

sprout1 - 6.3 hours ago
First day in week 30! Good morning ladies and bubs. Hope everyone is feeling well today. :)

Smallblessings - I am glad your doctor visit went well.

Everything grows rounder and wider and weirder, and I sit here in the middle of it all and wonder who in the world you will turn out to be. -- Carrie Fisher

Hi MOMMIES!! First day in 30 weeks. Talked to doc today and he approved me not wanting any medical intervention during my labor, unless needed, of course. Hope everyone is well, I'm off to bed.

Berrymama - 16.5 hours ago
What do you do for a shower if you will not know the gender prior to birth? Any ideas or anyone who has done this please comment on my poll. Thanks.

lb71 - 18.4 hours ago
My little guy is cracking me up tonight. Feels like he is popping packing bubbles in there!! Very low in front. I can't wait to find out tomorrow if he is head down as i suspect; he's either got the hiccups, or he's drumming his fingers on me!!

lovingLayla - 18.8 hours ago
mommy2b i hope it works out for you, is he still getting help. and maybe it will be safe for you to stay with your mom until after the baby, that way if you will be able to defend yourself if you have to.

lovingLayla - 18.8 hours ago
hey ladies, iam no longer going by the username onetimemom--my new name is loving layla

lb71 - 20.1 hours ago
mommy2b, I'm so glad you've got your mom to support you right now. I hope things work out the way that you want. Big hugs to you & little Hannah!

kristielynn - 20.3 hours ago
mommy2b2010, I am so sorry to hear about all that you are going through, pregnancy is hard enough on us, we sure as heck dont need all that other stress to go along with it.. stay strong and know that whatever happens, that little blessing that's on the way will shine a whole new light on life :-)

mommy2b2010 - 22.5 hours ago
hello week 30!!-- well for those of you that know my husband and i are having lots of trouble, we are living seperatly. i am at my moms house, he is still with his parents. we are now 'dating' but still married. i dont want a divorce or the mess that comes with it. so we are attempting to make it work. i am visiting him tonight. we seem to get along a lot better when we dont live together. i really dont want that though. i want to be with him, under the same roof but i cant stand some of his childish ways or the fact that he is abusive.. im having a tough time dealing with the pain and stress of our marriage along with being pregnant.-- thanks for letting me vent ladies. i needed it!! hope everyone is doing well!!
