Calling All Women of Strength!!!

[mommyin10]

A strong woman works out every day to keep her body in shape…
But a woman of strength builds relationships to keep her soul in shape.

A strong woman isn't afraid of anything…
But a woman of strength shows courage in the midst of fear.

A strong woman won't let anyone get the better of her…
But a woman of strength gives the best of herself to everyone.

A strong woman makes mistakes and avoids the same in the future…
A woman of strength realizes life's mistakes can also be unexpected blessings and capitalizes on them.

A strong woman wears a look of confidence on her face…
But a woman of strength wears grace.

A strong woman has faith that she is strong enough for the journey…
But a woman of strength has faith that it is in the journey that she will become strong.

Hi, ladies. So, we had a long day of appts. We saw the nutritionist, who is totally confused as to why my blood glucose after lunch remains so high, considering they keep upping my insulin. He says it's as if I were an insulin-dependent diabetic w/out being pregnant. He wants to study my case ;) dh & I are, like, join the club! Each of our doctors has been "surprised" during my pregnany! ;-) So, it could be because I'm so inactive or because my babies each have their own placenta... They upped my dose agsin, so we'll see if it works! :) Our NST was fast, which was great. I think we were only there for 20 min! We then saw my ob & scheduled our c section! It's set for March 19 & we're so excited :) So, now we know our babies will be born in 5 weeks at the latest :) I'm still thinking the first week of March, so we'll see! Well, I've been relaxing the rest of the day. I get so tired after being out all morning.
Have a wonderful weekend, everyone! :)

Just a quick update & I'll read your posts later... Surprise!!! My water broke at 8:45 last night. My contractions did start til I was in a hospital bed around 9:30 & they were really strong & close together. We went in the operating room around 11:30 & at 12:15 a.m., Richard Clay, III (Ricky) was born! He was 4 lbs, 5 oz, 17.25 inches long, followed by his sister Ava Kathleen at 12:16. She weighed 3 lbs, 14 oz, 16 inches long. They're in the NICU & will be for 3-4 weeks, but they're doing great :) I'll try to post pics!

OMGosh lol!! I finally have a little bit of time to post :-) I do try to check in everyday and see how everyone is doing, just a little busy to post sorry!! Please know that I'm thinking of all of you and sending SSBD to you, and praying that S and Mommy keep their babies in a little while longer!! You guys are almost there!!! Woo-Hoo!!

Peyton had her weight check on Tuesday... Monday the 8th she was 6lbs 1oz and Tuesday the 16th she weighed 6lbs 12oz!!! The ped is very happy lol :-) The only thing is, is that I'm not making enough milk to keep up with her - she drinks 3oz bottles now so basically I'm just pumping when I can and supplement with formula. But she's growing fast lol!! We get up with her twice a night, usually at 130 then at 430-500 which is good. DH gets up at the second feeding and that makes it really nice!!! DS just kind of ignores her lol...He wants to hold her when we are doing something with her (feeding, burping, changing...).  But I think he's realized she's not going anywhere lol! But we are doing very well, just trying to get enough rest!!! I'll try to check in later and I'll post again when I can!! Have a great day ladies!!!

Hugs, Love and SSBD to all :-)

Luvkayln-  The medicine is to help stop the uterus from contracting b/c for the last month I have been cramping really bad and they said that is what it was from.  Mommyin10 is on the same thing.  I didn't really ask if I could stop it a  little early but I don't see the point in paying for it for 5 days.  I don't know, maybe I should just pay for it but it's not cheap and we could use that to buy something else I'm sure she needs.  I doubt it's going to make a huge difference since I'm not dilated at all yet but he said that my cervix is really thin and a month ago I was already 50% effaced.  He didn't give me a number today just said it was VERY thin so I'm sure that % has gone way up.  I should begin to dilate any day now.  I'll be anxious to see him again in two weeks.  We are having an u/s to verify she is in fact head down b/c he just said she was by feeling my belly but he said she is way down so... I don't know what that means either!!!  I hate this.   I don't know anything and I am such a planner.  This is hard.  I'm not good with surprises.  I wish they would just give me an enduction date so I would know and could sleep at night.  I know its dumb but I dream all night that my water breaks in my sleep and I don't wake up and by the time I realize it we don't make it to the hospital.  Like the pain won't wake me up!?  LOL.  The nightmares I have are soooo rediculous.  

K, so I talked to you long enough.  I'm sure you have lots to do, like REST!

XOXOXO

Congrats on all BFP's~   Prayers and good thoughts to all ladies who are almost due.
Mommy10 I was wondering if i could join in your thread and be added to your list?
I took Clomid days 3-7 and started the OPK pkg and actually went thru them all but not once did i see the surge line turn dark.   I had all the symptoms of ovulation but nada but we did BD just in case so we shall see.  I went yesterday to get testedt o see if i ovulated but i guess thy did the wrong tests.  I was suppose to be tested for progestrone and was instead tested for FSH, TSH, Estrdial and Prolactin and they said it came back normal.  so we shall see tommorow wht the other tests says.
