How is everyone doing?

[lamb18]

Hey all I am 29 weeks 2 days today and super bored. UGHHHH. I have had bad back pain and some menstrual cramping in my lower back and belly. I don't know what is causing this?? I have been really emotional lately... just tearing up at just about everything. LOL. I just wanted to see how everyone is doing? How far along are we all? Is anyone ready to deliver already?

I will be 33 weeks tomarrow and I have been uncomfortable for quite awhile now:( I am carring so large I sometimes wonder if another one is hiding in there too!! I wonder if an u/s has ever missed that, lol:) As far as being ready...Im not! I still need diapers, wipes, a swing , bottles, a car seat.....andf the list goes on. Im waiting to win the lottery, hehe:)
I just recently heard that you are concidered full term at 36 weeks?? IDK this is my 3rd baby and I always thought it was any thing past 37 weeks......Who knows....Im ready Now but anything after the next 3 weeks and I will take it!
By the way I get comments like the ones you were talking about all the time!! It doesnt help that I have looked ready to deleiver since I was 28 weeks!! Its all belly but........I am HUGE!!  I only have a couple pictures posted if you want to look. Tell me what you think. In yours you looks so little but you dont have any current ones up and a few weeks can make a big diffrerence!!

babydreams- funny you mentioned that... LOL. I actually bought a birthing ball like a month ago. I don't really use it much but I guess I should.

I am glad that everyone is doing good. I go back to the doctors on July 24 and I will be 32 weeks. YAY. I am so excited. Ya, I hear ya ladies about being so big. I went into the gas station today and the cashier looks at me and says "any day now? your about to pop!" I looked at her and said I still have 2 months left. Kinda irritated me a little bit, because I know I am super huge for only 29 weeks, 4 days. Has anyone else has anyone say stuff like that to them?

I am going Thursday for my 3D ultrasound. I will make sure I post pictures of my big girl. LOL. Ya, I know about the belly that turns into an ocean. LOL. I think it feels so weird. It also feels weird when you get an elbow or a knee that slides from one side to the other. LOL. I always poke around on my tummy to feel where she is at.

My feet are also pretty swollen and sore. I have a foot spa so that seems to help out a lot when I get the time to use it. LOL. I am having my baby shower on August 3rd, so we are not buying much anymore. We are just gonna take it easy and see what I get at my shower and then what I dont get that we need to buy. Her room is 75% done, all I need is her dresser, rug, and lamp. But as far as being ready to deliver, I am... but I know she isn't. LOL. She can stay in there for 2 more months. LOL.

Hey! I am 29 weeks 1 day, so we're in the same boat! I have officially entered the "uncomfortable stage", and holy heck am I an emotional gal these days! I am not typically an emotional person, and throughout this pregnancy I've been very stable mood-wise. All of a sudden over the past couple weeks I feel like I could literally cry at the drop of a hat. Sometimes I laugh and cry at the same time... it is ridiculous! And I am soooooo tired.... not sleeping well due to back pain and heartburn. Even on rare occasions when I do sleep well, I'm still exhausted the whole next day. Our little guy is moving like CRAZY, it is almost hard to believe he ever sleeps. I can actually feel little body parts purtruding out of my tummy and have to push them back in! lol... I am definitely ready to at least be closer to the big day. I'm thrilled to be as far along as I am, but 10 weeks to go seems like an eternity at this point!

Your cramps may be BH. And a tip for back pain - invest in a "birthing ball" (same thing as a yoga ball). It helps me a LOT, and plus it's a natural way to get your pelvis to shift forward and get baby into optimal position that may make you more comfortable & have less back pain. Best wishes!

Hey girl, doing well here. I dont know if you saw or not, but the doc scheduled my c section for September 10th! I am so excited!!! I have just over 2 months to go. Wow, time is really flying!!! I tell ya what though, I am at the uncomfortable stage. I cant bend over or squwat to pick things up or McKenzi pushes up into my ribs or I have a bh contraction. I dont feel yucky or anything, just FULL!!! I swear sometimes there is a second baby hiding in there, Lol!!! Especially when she decides she is going to move every part of her body constantly for almost 10 minutes! It was like my stomach had turned into an ocean last night with how much much she was wiggling. My stomach was moving in waves! It was so cool.

Im 28+.. not that bored yet... exited with shopping and baby stuff... it could of been worse but I am thankful as long as there no complications no the way!!! Can't wait for September to have my little boy in my arms....

Hello, I'm 30 weeks and have been feeling horrible. I'm so sick and my throat really hurts. I find myself crying a lot because I just can't sleep well anymore. My backs hurts a lot, sleeping on my sides hurts and I seriously go pee every 1 and 1/2 hours every night. I really wish I could deliver now I'm so ready not to be pregnant anymore.
