39 + 3. Mark me down as officially done with this. Check please. I was wondering about you since you had mentioned you thought things might be coming soon a little bit ago. Sorry it's not happening yet. I stalled out 🙁. I’m currently 3cm and 70% but no other signs of anything to come. Blergh.

Well, apparently one of my liver enzymes WAS elevated, so they sent me for more blood and I have to go for a growth ultrasound and depending on the results of those I'll have a baby any time between 2 and 5 1/2 weeks from now *sigh* Hope all is well with LO!

I forgot how tired nursing makes everyone. I feel like I'm falling asleep all the time.

Going for the ultrasound on Tuesday. As much as I'm annoyed and worried, I'm glad to have an excuse to see him. It's been 12 weeks since my last ultrasound.

I had totally forgotten about it til it happened and i was like omg I remember this where I literally could not stay awake for anything. It does go away after a few days of your hormones regulating

It does go away after a few days of your hormones regulating I thought that it was from the painkillers but I didn’t take anything today and was still a bit zoned out. Glad that you mentioned it.

I’m currently 3cm and 70% but no other signs of anything to come. Blergh. Ah man sorry! This was me, I was 4cm for like 2.5 weeks but if it makes you feel better I had a super quick labor and delivery hopefully it will be the same for you!

Last night my feet swelled up like balloons. I'm also having occasional floaters/bright lights. Of course its the weekend, so the only option is the ER. Or wait for my regular appointment on Monday. The eye disturbances are very occasional. My BP at my appointment on Thursday was 130/80, so its definitely creeping up.
WWYD? I'm super hesitant about going to the ER. Maybe if the vision becomes more consistently problematic?

fatpony, yeah, I totally understand wanting that ER $$$ bill, so, three things: 1. does your OB office not field calls on weekends? I don't know if mine does, or if it's normal, but my pediatricians always do. 2. My insurance offers a nurse line and virtual appointments with doctors so you could check with yours too 3. urgent care centers are a lot cheaper for my insurance than ERs, if that is an option for you robot, your idea is great!

Maybe if the vision becomes more consistently problematic? I’d definitely get to a professional right away. When I had a concern about lack of movement and frequent BH, they sent me to L&D and it was no big deal. Can you try calling L&D at the hospital that you are delivering at?

Yes I would call the weekend number for your doctor, they may send you to L&D or have you monitor your symptoms until Monday.

So sadly I think my version of nesting is just buying all the things with one click off Amazon, not cleaning. This is bad for both my budget and the cleanliness level of my house.

I have decided that my sons toes are fair game once he gets out here for how many times he's kicked me. I still have 5 weeks to go and I can't even get comfortable except reclining because of his feet in my ribs!

birkmmm you poor thing. Hope it clears quickly. Any idea how it happened? I’m so paranoid. Not sure... I’ve been very engorged since my milk came in. I try to pump only once a day so I can be comfortable but not too no more than that so I don’t supply too much. I think that it was prob a full/clogged duct from being so full. The nurse told me to go ahead pump more than once for now though
