I am getting so anxious to meet her. I would love for her to be here before Christmas, but I'm not even sure if that is going to happen now. At this stage I honestly do not care one
bit if I am in the hospital on Christmas Day, just as long as my LO arrives soon! So LO, listen up, mommy and daddy are ready to meet you. Come on! herpes and pregnancyherpes and pregnancyMessage #2: herpes and pregnancy Posted by: ang_30 Date: Dec 19, 2009.I have HSV-2 as well and will be induced on my 39th week to check if I have any outbreaks so I can deliver Vaginally because my DOC recommended that I do a C-section at first but after uch researching, I told her that I would prefer not to do a C-Section and thats why she is going to check to make sure I am ok to deliver instead. It's your body and if you want whats best for your baby, you should talk to your OB/GYN and demand that they check you before you go into labor b
ecause once your water breaks and if you have shedding, the baby will still be at risk getting it through C-Section. Better being safe than sorry. HTH and let me know the outcome herpes and pregnancyMessage #3: herpes and pregnancy Posted by: ang_30 Date: Dec 19, 2009.Oh....one more thing.... If you have an outbreak after you aqre 36 weeks, you will have no choice but to get a C-Section because again, your LO will be at higher risk of getting it. So whether you have the baby at 38, 39 or 40 weeks, if you have an outbreak, it take almost 3 weeks for it to clear with shedding.Pregnancy: 3rd TrimesterImportant

n hour, our babysitter is coming to watch DD so that DH and I can attend a friend's holiday party. You don't even want to know how excited I am to be a grown-up at a party with other adults! I'm going to wear makeup and everything! Plus, a good friend of mine is going to be there (haven't seen her in about six months) and she's preggo with her first child due in May. Yay for Mommy and Daddy time!!
I know some of you first time mommas haven't experienced this yet, but I urge you to make the most of your alone time with your DH because once that LO is born, you'll have eighteen years to go before you can get out alone without worrying about who's going to watch the kids or if the kids are behaving themselves by themselves!OT: Grown-up time!OT: Grown-up time!Message #1: OT: Grown-up time! Posted by: thenewMrsVu Date: Dec 19, 2009.Hilary, that's what everyone has been telling me! so DH and I have been eating out lots together and trying to spend time with our friends as much as possible the past few weeks. even my doctor has been telling us "guys, life is never going to be the same so make the most of your time together right now!" so yeah, we're doing what we can now! and it's been a blast. have fun tonight!!!

I want to make this the best Christmas ever because it will be the last one we have alone together. It's kind of kindergarden but I made lots of mistletoes out of construction paper and put them up all over the apartment today. I'm going to hop in the shower in a sec and put make-up on and look all pretty so when he comes home from working overtime today we can have a nice romantic evening. I ordered pizza and put romantic music on. It's hard to believe that in less then a month we'll be first time parents with no more time to ourselves!! OT: Grown-up time!Message #3: OT: Grown-up time! Posted by: smreeves Date: Dec 19, 2009.AMEN TO THAT!!!! DH and I just celebrated our anniversary and It was so nice to have my parents watch the kids all night!!

What ended up working for me (and it was 4w for me) was taking my bp often, especially after I did anything. After a few days, I was able to figure out a good activity level for me, and was able to do a little more. Also, it does get easier after the first few days. You get used to the reduced activity, I guess. Anyway, maybe if you can figure it out, you can wrap a couple of presents, then take a break, the wrap a couple of more, etc. Good
luck!Pregnancy: 3rd Trimesterlots of pressure/painInitial Message Posted by: mommeeof3 Date: Dec 19, 2009.hi ladies. so last night, after i got out of the shower, i started getting VERY strong pressure into my pelvis and anal pressure. at first, i just attributed it to being in the warm shower and the baby readjusting. it continued sporatically throughout the night. this morning, hubby and i had sex ... and about 2 hours later, the pressure/pain started coming more regularly. i *think* they might be contractions, but these arent like the contractions that i've previously felt during my last 2 pregnanies. most of the pain/tightening is centralized in the lower half of my stomach, closer to my belly button and pelvic bones ... occasionally i'll get completely pain/tightening throughout my entire stomach, but its mostly lower. i h
ave SEVERE lower anal pressure ... i feel like i have to go but then nothing happens when i try. just wondering if anyone else has experienced pain/pressure/tightening like this in the lower half and if it really was labor? i'm debating calling the dr, but thought i would ask for some opinions here first.....TIA!lots of pressure/painlots of pressure/painMessage #1: lots of pressure/pain Posted by: fox_rider133 Date: Dec 19, 2009.I am getting the same thing and omg does it hurt! Its like she is trying to break my water! Which I would be stoked!

Maybe you'll get to bring home the best Christmas present of all just in time for Christmas!lots of pressure/painMessage #4: lots of pressure/pain Posted by: grnidprncs Date: Dec 19, 2009.Hmmmm, with my twins I was walking around a mall feeling like I had to go to the bathroom (#2) what turned out to be about every 4 m
inutes..I had NO idea they were contractions...got to the hospital and I was 4cm! I'd call the doc just in case!
Good luck and lots of Labor Vibes!!lots of pressure/painMessage #5: lots of pressure/pain Posted by: mommeeof3 Date: Dec 19, 2009.Just talked to the dr on call and he was a complete JERK! i told him about the pain and pressure and that it feels lke contractions ... he tells me "you're not even 36 weeks yet" i said "i know but this feels like contractions" his response? "well you can come in to be monitored if you want" WTH is that?! i cant believe him!! i'm so upset! he was talking to me like a 5 year old who's never had a baby before.OT: Help!! Ear pain!OT: Help!! Ear pain!Message #2: OT: Help!! Ear pain! Posted by: JenEthan Date: Dec 19, 2009.I recently had an ear infection and although I could hear my ear started bleeding.
It was so odd. I didn't think it was a big deal because it didn't hurt and I knew I had a cold but my doc said it was extremely important that because we're pregnant not to let things like this get out of control and I needed to go to the ER immediately. So I would say you should head on back to urgent care as soon as you possibly can. Good luck and I hope it gets better!View all discussions at Pregnancy: 3rd TrimesterUse the unsubscribe form to cancel your email sub_script_ion.
