LOL - my hubby has been laughing a lot lately - he was born two weeks early (course who knows if his due date was even accurate) and he's ALWAYS early or on time for everything - his younger sister is the world's greatest procrastinator - our Christmas gifts didn't arrive until almost New Year's this year - guess what - big surprise - she was late and had to be induced - hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm - stop wishing for that 42 wks Hannah!!!!!!

Sheila,

I have been thinking about your situation and how mine might go based on your experience also.  The thing is, you were on meds to stop contractions.  I haven't even had contractions, so I'm not expecting this to happen that quickly for me.  With all this worry about preterm labor, it is going to make the wait seem extra long.  I can see it now, I'll be 42wks and have to schedule to be induced lol.. :)

hehehe I miss being PG, the hiccups and feeling them all the time....now I have to share her with DH.
  You are all so close, I cant wait for you to meet your lil ones and see pictures of them.  I guess there is a belt out there that helps.  I didnt have time to get it or need it on bedrest,  but Saraya felt like she was gonna fall out also

Hannah, I did the same thing started doing more at 34 weeks then took myself off bed rest at 35 weeks...but didnt get DR to let me go back to work ...and lil miss Saraya was here at 35w6d....see how close you could be to meeting you lil man

We are currently 34 wks 4dys - starting to get VERY eager to hold our girl in our arms - like Tanker - our Abby is very low - somedays she feels like she is going to fall out if I don't hold my tummy up - lol - and I feel her twisting and turning a lot in there - this morning we laid in bed , hubby and I , with our hands on my belly - Abby Rose had a serious case of the hiccups and we could feel every single one - lol - you are in for such fun for the last ten weeks - sit back and enjoy every moment!

hey,i'm glad you're doing fine,bedrest is so hard in the begining but you get used to it,don't you?-I was in bedrest for a while during my prev pg-have u checked your cervix again-did u have an u/s at 32w?Take it easy though,don't rush back to work and to normal activity ,if you can.
As for me ,I'm feeling absolutely fine,I can feel her everyday,although somedays she does seem to be more quiet.I'm having another detailed u/s at 32w and trying to control my diet better these days,not very succesful yet.
I also had to take some antibiotics for a few days for some sort of infection that they found-they have a smear sample tested every so often for all kinds of possible infections.Taking any kind of drugs right now makes me nervous but dr said it's ok,i hope infection is over too.

Hi Lena,

I'm still on bed rest.  Today I'm 33wk4d.  At 34wks I'm going to take it easy but not be on total bed rest.  At 35wks, I'm going back to work.  

As for changes, for the most part things are a lot the same.  I've been carrying pretty low, but recently the top part of my belly has really started to fill out.  It has also gotten a lot harder to get up from a laying down position.  I don't move anywhere quickly these days. The baby's movements feel a lot different also. Less like kicks and more like him moving and wiggling around.  Parts of my belly will really stick out far when he is moving around.  Like when you put a blanket over a puppy's head and he is trying to find his way out.  When I feel my belly, I can feel him in there, even when he isn't moving.

How have you been feeling?
