Ok, so after my youngest ds was born, i gained some weight, when my ex and i got married in 04 i topped at 313....i lost nearly 100 lbs in 2-3 yrs...which i have started to gain some back,but it is to be expected....anyhow, after losing the weight i had a slight "apron" that hung down. Well today i noticed that the middle part of this "apron" is no longer hanging...i am not sure if i am starting to show already or if my hernia is being pushed out by my uterus a little. i decided to keep the appt. with my regular OB just to have him check it since i have been going to him since ds was born in 02 and he was the one who told me i had a hernia to begin with. I go on tuesday the 28th so hopefully he can reassure me that the hernia is NOT gonna cause me problems. anyhow just thought i would share that with you.
Yeah, it was a **** off, and then 36 weeks I figured I would give up bedrest and walk my butt off!! Which I did do. Everytime I got up or sat down being pregnant with my twins there was so much pressure on my tail bone that I thought it would snap in half everytime I did those things it was nasty. Luckily this time around I don't have that.
keeks,
i was told that between 5-6 months i will be put on bedrest til the end of the pregnancy....this by a nurse NOT my doctor, I am high risk because of age, i have a HUGE incisional hernia that goes along my c-section incision.....AND i lost 2 pregnancies in the 5th month. and it is just a gut feeling, about twins, but the doc said that at this point if it shows only one on the u/s then there is only one...idk, maybe my intuition is messed up because of the bean....lol
Hkenny ~ I wouldnt worry about it , I started to show around 20 weeks , like noticeably , but around 14 weeks I had that akward looking fat but not pregnant lol......That part SUCKED I would rather have a pregnant tummy at 11 weeks than just an awakward fat ponch until the 2nd trimester LOL.....If you were measuring big then I would think maybe twins but showing & measuring are 2 different things so its probably okay :)
Joyce ~ YAY for a sneak peek at the bean! How exciting! Why do you think its twins?....Hope all goes well with your Surgeons appt.....Why are you high risk & why do they think you'll need bed rest between 5-6 months??....I sure hope you dont need bed rest it *****!
Jamie ~ Hows everything going with the family hun? Hope its getting easier!.....Your almost done girl! damn lol your pregnancy went by 10x faster than mine it seems haha!!.....Have you decided for sure on a name now?.....Oh man the pregnancy you had with the twins was like mine , dont you HATE it when they constantly tell you "its gonna be soon" and then you make it past that point & you think your doing good only for them to be like " okay now your not gonna make it to here"....Pissed me off everytime LOL
Katebud ~ Tommorows the big day ? or did it already come & go?....Im so excited to find out what your having! I still say GIRL :)
Quick Update ~ Things still kinda suck around here but im sure it will get better , I have to testify in my friends trial from a car accident like 5 years ago & im NOT happy , they want me to leave Rylen for a whole day to do it & I flat out refused cause im still breastfeeding , so now they've supenaded (sp) me to a video testimony which still ***** but i'll take what I can get I guess....Rylens doing great , hes 10lbs 2oz, but hes not chubby just LONG lol.....He smiles now & makes all kinds of noises! I just adore him!......Anyways I gotta go eat dinner before the munchkin wakes up! Hope your all doing well :)
twins and my cervix started shortening at 24 weeks, it was 1.8 cms it is supposed to be 5cms or something, and then by 28 weeks it was 1cms short so I was high risk of giving birth at 24 weeks, they constanlty told me I wouldn't make it to 28 weeks, and then I did then told me I won't make it to 32, and then 36, but I made it to 38 and had two 6 pound boys.
What made you high risk??? the nurse i talked to said something about possible bedrest from about 5-6 months which would be (20-24 weeks)....ugh
