Belly Buddies *5/22*

Please forgive any oversights...it's been a while since I've done a list, and it's been 5 weeks since the last list, my math skills have degenerated over the years, but here goes....


CONGRATULATIONS BRIDGETTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am so absolutely thrilled to welcome Bridgette over here!  For 2 years we have shared Bridgette's long journey to reach this most wonderful moment.  We know her cycle better than our own.  We have laughed with her, cried with her, been frustrated with her, vented with her, learned from her, prayed for her and have cherished the friendship of a wonderful woman, who even in her down times found the strength to lift everyone else up and offer her unwavering support to all of us who have needed it.  It is with tears of happiness in my eyes that I get to put Bridgette's name in it's rightful place, on the Belly Buddies list for a looong nine months of a whole new type of anxiety for our dear friend. We're ready for you Bridgette, let your journey begin!  ;)~

Done Buns!

need_answers - my BF had placenta previa and it cleared up for her.  She had a vaginal birth right on time.  Yes, the upside is you DO get to see the little bean more =)

I finally broke down and bought a doppler.  I ordered it on Wednesday, so it should be here sometime this week.  It seems as if I spend every minute of every day terrified that something is wrong, so I really hope this will give me some peace of mind.

Rossie - I can't believe how close you are!!!  Can't wait to see the baby pics!!

stephb, cocacolapanda- thanks so much! I think i'm going to wait until 8 weeks for my ultrasound.

need_answers- I think you're right about it never getting easier! I'll breathe a sigh of relief after my first trimester but every week will be scary until then. I'm trying to be happy and realistic at the same time! Thanks for your response

forgot to mention ... I get bad contractions when we bd also.  I actually get contractions all the time, but it's nothing that changes the cervix so far.  The doc is letting me take ibuprofen for that when it's too bothersome.  I just had to promise to quit taking it by 36 weeks...

So funny ... it seems that so many of us experience the same issues at the same time!

As for backache ... I know most are talking about lower back pain.  Does anyone have pain higher?  I keep waking with pain between my shoulder blades (a frequent source of back pain pre-pregnancy btw), but also pain high on my stomach, like where the diaphram would be and in the chest as well.  The worst part is the back though ... I'm wondering what the real source is and if the others are just displaced pain.  My doc has approved ibuprofin for contractions, so I have been taking that when it happens and I can eventually fall back asleep.  It's so hard to tell what's really going on because all the organs are being pushed in odd places, so who knows what's really hurting!

As for bding ... yeah, not much going on here!  First ... just way too tired.  Then ... was sick with bad cough for over 4 weeks.  Now that I'm finally feeling better, the pressure is becoming an issue!  I had pressure issues with my last (to term) pregnancy as well, but everything is starting earlier with this one!  Guess that's baby # 3 for ya!  But when  you feel like you are turning inside out, who wants any bd action?  LOL  tmi I know...  :)
