Thanks...I'm torn between wanting baby out so I can take some medication and wanting to keep baby in so they don't catch what I have xxx

Lakarmw, any day now! Omg! Sorry you have a cold. The baby sounds like (s)he is almost ready. I couldn't imagine having a cold while giving birth. That would be horrible.
Skellynet, omg, how are you? When are you due? I've wondered how you have been. The new place still going well for you? You are due soon as well, correct?
Right now, I'm doing ok. Just ordered epo and red raspberry leaf tea to help soften cervix. She has dropped but plug still intact. I have 19 days to go so i guess I'm rushing it. So ready to see her but enjoying my time with my daughter as well.

@Lakarmw, that sucks! Stay hydrated. Your body might hold off till you're better before it really goes into labor. Hopefully so you'll have more energy. Dr. told me I could take a low dose Sudafed when I got a cold - just to dry up some of the congestion. Hope it passes quickly. Your bump looks gorgeous though...
@Tryingafterloss - less than 2 wks now! I'm very excited for you. I have 5-6 more weeks to go before induction.
AFM, I'm 33 wks now. Exhausted. Sitting at my desk at work not really doing anything but nursing a bad headache. I had all the windows open at home, freezing everyone out and still was overheating. ugh. These last weeks are tough.

Lakarmw- wow almost time for the baby, sorry you feeling sick as well.

Im doing better still waiting for doctor appointment for the level 2 ultrasound. Deep inside i just feel the blood test is wrong. We are still debating on a boys name!!!! Lol so far we have Noah, Ethan, Jeremiah, Elijah all with middle name as Daniel. What do yall think?

Ah thanks everyone hopefully whatever it is will go soon...it's just not the time.
@Tryingafterloss not long to go at all...how exciting for you too. I wish I had an end date...it's hard not knowing.
@calvingirl sorry to hear you're feeling rough too...your right these last few weeks do get hard. I've just basically rested all day until picking up my kids from school.
@Beaut1ful38 I like your name choices...very organised. We still don't have names xxx

@Lakarmw - You're bump looks so good! Are you still feeling like baby is dropping more? Since this is my first pregnancy I can only imagine what that feels like. You're in the home stretch though.

@Bautiful38 - Those names are all nice! I think I like Elijah the most. I had a good friend growing up named Jeremiah and you don't meet many of those these days so that's a good choice to go with too. Is Daniel a family name? I'm praying that your guy feeling is right and that the blood test was wrong. It's common for that first one to get it wrong. Are you still waiting on scheduling for your level 2 ultrasound?

AFM - I'm starting to feel more pressure and aches down in my lower abdomen, I guess under my Uterus. Haven't looked it up but I assume it's normal. I've also been getting fatigued in the afternoons more easily then before. They checked my TSH again and it's higher then September but still in the normal range for pregnant women so it's not that. I'm getting anxious about the glucose test coming up... The fatigue is whats making be more anxious. Still loving all the kicks and looking forward to starting the third trimester next week!

@beautiful I'm with Flamingo!! I love Elijah Daniel!! Keep us posted please.

So I just received my induction date and it’s later than I had thought it would be. Going in for induction on Friday November 30! So she could end up being a Dec baby after all! Lol

Flamingogirl- daniel is just a name i liked. We still deciding though lol. I am still waiting on prenatal specialist to call with an appointment for the level 2 ultrasound. Had a lil hiccup with insurance but got resolved finally.

Rooroo917- thank you thats the one i like too!

Tryingafterloss- how exciting just a few more weeks and you will be holding your baby girl!

@flamingogirl13 thank you, I love my bump but I am looking forward to being able to bend again and having a waist I'm glad to hear your progressing well. And yes unfortunately more aches and tiredness start again in the third trimester...all part of the fun :( I hope all goes well with your glucose test.
@Tryingafterloss wow 30th November....not long to wait at all now....how exciting, I hope baby doesn't take their time and become a December baby.

I'm so hoping my little one decides to be born soon hehe. My cold does seem to be easing now...since my cold started all signs of baby arriving stopped...no more mucus plug loss etc. I'm booked in for a sweep tomorrow...which I'm really not looking forward to at all :( and i dont feel very positive that it will work either, right now it feels like baby is very comfortable in there. 5 days until due date...come on little one ???? I've been on my birthing ball for at least 3 hours a day too and that seems to do nothing either
