I sleep with a pillow under my side. This helps keep my back lined up. One night I tryed to sleep without that pillow. My hips hurt so bad that next day. So go with an extra pillow under your side. It has worked great for me. I wish I would have tryed this with my 1st son.

Hey thanks for your comment on the doggies! I am thinking they know something.. My male dog is typically so passive and only cares about food and being petted by anyone and in the last few days he has become very aggresive towards anyone who comes near me. He even is blocking my girl dog is who is really my baby from me.. he has to be next to me and it is just so not him!
Thanks again!

The coroner told us it could take a couple months before we know anything. It's hard not knowing, but it's something we are trying to cope with. I have a great family and good friends, they are helping me get thru this.

Sounds to me like you are right on track for a seven pound baby which is average. I went last Thursday, and my baby was 5 lb 10 oz and she was in the 98th percentile...OMG...she's gonna be a nine pounder! Not bad for my first baby! She was 32.5 weeks, and her head was the size of a 35.5 week old! Sounds like you are in for some easier pushing than me :0)

This is from your poll. My suggestion would be to cut open a cotton pillowcase and use that. It would be a very inexpensive way to keep your daughter cool until warm weather is gone and cooler weather has set in.

Congrats on your pregnancy! How do you feel?


summerisis - Thursday, 27 Mar
Hey. I agree... Breastfeeding is worth the challenge! I wish us both luck!


mlindsey - Thursday, 27 Mar
thanks for commenting on my poll. I just hear everyone is feeling their baby so much now and i still have yet to feel it. And the ones that say their husband or whatever could feel it at like 17wks???!!! no way! its so small the mom can hardly feel it. i am 21 wks this week so hopefully any day now. Its just discouraging to hear all these women say they can feel it for so long now and i get the occasional ' oh...you haven't felt it yet...?' like there is something wrong. BAHHH this is frusterating.

Hey Monica -- The breastfeeding is very, very challenging. The type of reduction that I had is apparently the most difficult to overcome. Sierra lost 10% of her weight in 3 days and was later hospitalized and placed under UV lamps and an IV to reduce her jaundice. It was horrible to say the least. She finds it frustrating to attempt to feed because the food is lacking, at best. I have rented a pump from the hospital and am pumping in between feedings in an attempt to meet her needs. We can barely pump 30 cc from both breasts so I've had to supplement with formula. My husband has to massage my boobs while I pump and feed to that the milk will find its way to the nipple. We've successfully avoided bottle feeding and Kyle (my husband) syringe feeds her or we use a SNS (supplemental Nursing System) so that she can suckle the nipple and receive formula. It's crazy! I have to feed her every 1 1/2 to 2 hours, which means that I have to wake her up to eat. With all that said, I think that we're successful and encourage you to try your best to overcome any surgery woes too. And, the breastfeeding book that I recommended has been a godsend -- it's really helped us to understand what we can do to not give up. Best wishes, jeni and sierra.

oh i cant wait to hold him

Thanks for your response to my poll :) You made me feel better, I'm sure my husband will make sure we have plenty of hoodies and converse on hand. He is very concerned about what our little man will wear...if we are having a boy :) I think it's cute, but might be annoying later hahaha.

yeah i said the refrigerator and he acted like i was the stupid one! i was like hello haven't you ever heard of bacteria growing on stuff after it's been heated and left out? and he said Yeah that is why you put it in the oven. I said No, the OVEN doesn't have a cold enough temperature to kill the bacteria. He still insists that the oven is the only way to go. So i just let him eat his nasty left overs! Plus he put the extra boneless chicken wings in the oven too, even MORE DISGUSTING!


babynheaven - Wednesday, 19 Mar
Awwwhhh....! thank you so much for your message. I rally hope to get pregnant soon!


babynheaven - Wednesday, 19 Mar
WOW, I wish it happened like you, but is so hard not to think about wanting a baby so much. I had a mc first time on clomid now we started trying again and this is my second month on Clomid, i'm on day 22 and still not ovulated..I hope I do ovulate this month. I'm thinking of just stop thinking about getting pregnatat least for next month but is so hard, I want a baby so much....! Congrats on your pregnancy....XOXO


summerisis - Saturday, 15 Mar
Hey. Just noticed that you had breast reduction. I recommend a book call 'Defining Your Own Success' it's about Breastfeeding After Reduction Surgery (BFAR) and is published by La Leche League... I can't bring myself to read it because it's very 'textbookish' but I've skimmed it and it seems a valuable resource.


Tonya- - Friday, 14 Mar
Thank you so much for your comment i feel alot better today i figured that was what it probley was when later on it started going up my sides it just scared me since we have tryed so long to get to where we are so thank you so much


gr8scottswife - Thursday, 13 Mar
I trust midwives over doctors, too, which is why I'm using a midwife.


spencerbaby1 - Sunday, 9 Mar
thanks! 36 more weeks.. sounds soooooo long haha


mommythethird - Friday, 7 Mar
Thanks for your comment. I think that you are probably right on my intense B/H yesterday. I've been feeling under the weather and of course I drink less and feel worse. I do tend to stick with a huge water intake daily so it could have been not feeling well required over the amount I normally drink. Good luck to you.


kylie - Tuesday, 4 Mar
hi. i have had a great pregnancy no morning sickness or anything and i have only just started to gain weight (fast) thought i wouldnt put much on but it's fooled me and its creeping on quite qwick now. 11 weeks to go and i cant wait labour doesnt bother me i am really exited i will probably be scared when the day comes though. do you know what your having? xx


MJamison - Monday, 3 Mar
hey I saw your poll.. what was your final score? At my doctors office ( which I did find out different offices have different numbers) to pass it has to be lower then 140. If it wasnt, really just for your sake, I would watch what you eat. You just dont want any unnessary complications to come about! I hope I wasnt off by reading your poll! Good luck!


kylie - Monday, 3 Mar
hi there. congratulations. you have the same due date as me. xx


mommy to boys - Wednesday, 27 Feb
Thank you, I found out tomorrow my due date...I have my first dr. apointment. I am really excited. Then after I will come home and tell my boys about the baby.
good luck with your delivery, is this your first?
