I’m getting induced tonight to have my baby, so I feel like he’s gonna arrive the 23rd. Tell me why I look up famous birthdays for that day and none other than JAMES CHARLES and TAYLOR FRANKIE PAUL come up lmfao my poor baby having a cursed bday 😭😭😭😭
I have 2 tickets to Harry Styles Together, Together tour at MSG on Friday, Sept 4. Section 115, row 3, seats 11 & 12. I’ll be a few months PP and don’t need to travel hours to NYC (I live way south). Originally purchased for $1150 per ticket after fees. Not looking to make all of the money back, it was an absurd price to pay. Send reasonable offers.
Last night when I laid down to go to bed, I was short of breath, regardless of which side I laid on. I’m currently 36+2 and have definitely felt short of breath when over exerting myself, but never when just trying to lay down. I tried propping myself up with 3 pillows and I tried sleeping with none. No matter what, I was breathing so hard it was like I had just ran a marathon. We did remove our bed frame from under us because we’re in the middle of moving homes and needed to get it out of our bedroom to sell, but I don’t think losing a cheap bed frame would cause this issue. I tried moving to the couch and that didn’t seem to help either. I think I maybe had 2 episodes of uninterrupted sleep for about an hour each, max. The shortness of breath paired with needing to pee and now having diarrhea along with active acid reflux made last night probably the hardest of my entire pregnancy. Right now, I’m in a recliner and really thought it would help, but it isn’t doing all that I hoped it would, and I don’t think I’ll be able to sleep like this for the next several nights. And no, I have no known history of DVT or PE. I was up and active yesterday the whole day getting things moved out of my apartment and into my new house.
Delivering next Friday if all goes well and I don’t have to come in sooner. I’ve spent 2 out of the last 3 times in observation for HTN and they’ve finally started me on some labetolol. Pressures have been great since starting. Good stories/advice for anyone who delivered at 37?
Currently 35+4, admitted for observation yesterday because my blood pressure was 160/120 at my OB office. NST was borderline nonreactive, so they sent me for a BPP, which baby did great for. Since admission, my blood pressure has stayed between 130s-140s/80s-90s. I stayed hooked up to the toco monitor for about 5 hours total, which baby “looked perfect” on. I was hoping all of those things meant I would get to go home today, until my 24 hour urine came back this morning. Results were 301, which apparently is just high enough to be diagnosable for pre-eclampsia. Considering my high blood pressures, I shouldn’t be surprised, but I kinda am. I’ve had no other symptoms besides swelling, and the swelling isn’t pitting and gets relived with elevation. I’ve had no headaches, visual changes, RUQ pain, nothing. I still haven’t seen my doctor, these lab results just came back on my patient chart app. I have no idea when I will see her today, so I feel like I’m just going to be sitting here in a bit of a quiet panic. I’m worried about him getting here so early and the complications that can come with that.
I’m currently 34+4 and after dinner last night, I felt some rhythmic little jumps/pulsations (? not sure how to explain them) in my very very low abdomen. I came to the conclusion that they were probably hiccups, which I have never noticed him having before. It was cute for about.. 1 minute. But they lasted quite a while. Several minutes. Not sure how long, honestly. I woke up around 3am last night and the same thing was happening. That time, they went on for about 5 minutes, while I was awake at least. Then, when I woke up this morning, I felt it again for a few minutes. Should I be concerned?
Not including large appliances like fridge, stove, and dishwasher… what’s your favorite? Personally, my life changed when I got a rice cooker instead of making it stovetop.
