I was a 36 A and now I'm a 36 B but may be headed towards a C, as well. I'd be happy with B's, though...I'm too active and like to run too much to have two black eyes!

this makes me jealous, I may never run again....from a 34D to a 38 F (only cause they dont make a 34 or 36 in anything larger than a D). I hope they reduce in size after I am done breastfeeding. Would love to trade for a smaller pair. I wore 2 bras while horseback riding to get the support I needed at 34 D guess I will have to rig something else up for riding (which I am DYING to do real soon). nothing pains me more than watching someone else ride my horse. She is probably so mad at me or thinks I don't love her anymore

LOL! Sorry Guys! No excitement here. I take care of DH's grandma and our night person quit on us, so we have been doing 24 hour days, and when I get a minute away I have been unpacking our new house which won't have internet until Wednesday, so all updating has to be done through my cell phone, or at work. Kandace told me you guys were worried so I popped over. Weird thing is that I never got any emails telling me of new posts on this thread?

Saw Doctor yesterday, he said they never check my cervix unless I am in labor or there is a medical worry, so I don't know if I have started to dilate yet

How is everybody else doing?

how frustrating, no cervix check...how dare they? But then again, last friday I was super freaked out by the numbers and it meant nothing... same this week so still no meaning to it.

glad to hear you are well!

 

[kelseygirl707]

Yes, I feel very loved, LOL

Yah, I have a friend that was 3 cm dilated and 60% effaced at 35 weeks, they told her she would probably have the baby at 37 weeks, well she just had a baby girl on Tuesday at 39 weeks, so the numbers don't always mean anything. But I would just like to know if anything is happening. The doc didn't even do my Strep B test, he gave me the swab and told me what to do, lol.

HAPPY EASTER EVERYBODY!!! I was hopeful last night that today would be D-Day, but nope, not yet. I finished unpacking all the boxes in the house last night around midnight, went to bed and had several contractions, but fell asleep and they stopped. They seem to kick up after I have done a lot of moving, bending and lifting, but they seem to be braxton hicks. Today we will moved all the garage stuff over to the new house, and I can't help but hope that starts things, lol.

Isn't it crazy! I went from (barely) an A to a DD with my daughter

Glad that I could use the extra help!! I know a lot of women who get the "help", but really don't need (or appreciate it)!!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter! My daughter has discovered a new toy and decided it would be funny to kick my cervix all day.

She is just 20w 4days but is starting to get a little more active.. Especially today. It may be because I did a deep clean of my kitchen yesterday, since I obviously abandoned it the first trimester.. It was ICKY!! Anyway, I could tell I overdid it last night.. I cramped a little and didn't feel like moving once I settled in for the night. So using my cervix as a trampoline must be payback.

Edited because my spelling mistakes weren't so obvious to me until Suzette quoted me. Wonder why that is??

ACK! My son used to do the same thing to my cervix! Drove me nuts!! Sometimes I could get him to change positions by doing the 'angry cat' stretch- got down on all fours and arched my back up and held it there a moment before dropping it back down as low as I could, and then repeated a few times till he got the message. Worked most of the time, but boy, when it didnt, you would think he was trying to kick field goals or something! Hope your daughter finds a new pastime soon!

As for me- I am having the WORST pain in my right hip joint today, its actually been so bad that my whole leg buckles under the pain and I almost fall down. I've been lucky to have something nearby to hold onto the past few times its happened or I woulda hit the ground! I usually get pretty bad sciatic nerve pain on that side during pregnancy (usually around 6 months), but this is horrible! Its been scary not knowing when its gonna flare up and cause me massive pain- everything and nothing seems to trigger it. I can be walking around or just getting up from laying or sitting down, and BAM! It hits. I think I'm going to have to talk to my DR about it at my next appt, because I know I have a very high pain tolerence, but this almost makes me wanna black out to get away from the pain. Of course, with my luck, the Doc will just say its the sciatic nerve thing and send me on my way like before....

Easter was wonderful and alot of fun (and work!). The baskets were a hit and the egg hunt was too funny! After the initial hunt, the kids took all their eggs and re-hid them from each other at least 3 times before they moved onto a bubble blowing contest! Coolest part was although we had 7 kids hunting eggs, NO ONE cried or brokedown or had any freakouts! And 3 of them were under 4 years old! The big kids found the harder to find eggs and then moved onto helping the littler kids find theirs. It was sooo sweet and many pictures were taken. Wonderful day!​
