Holy cow. Who's ready?? Deposit your randoms here.
33w1d and started my twice per week NSTs. Babe performed well this morning so that was a relief. I see MFM Wed and hopefully will be finalizing a CS date. And another NST Thursday.
How's everyone else hanging in there?

At my 32w appointment and baby’s heartbeat was a little slow, so I’m getting my first NST. 😬

I’m frustrated with my OB. Wasn’t my first choice had to change after first tri due to insurance. Having issues with figuring out GD but also think she didn’t have me get bloodwork I have gotten with other two pregnancies. Did ameveryone else get end of second tri/beginning of tied tri bloodwork. Like general blood panel?

Like general blood panel? No, the only general blood work I’ve done is at the first appointment at 8 weeks. Anything after was either optional (genetic screenings) or the glucose test at end of 2nd tri.

Baby’s been good, and I’m feeling decent, just slow and tired these days. I’m 34+ weeks and physically ready to be done but still kinda in denial that baby could be here in 3-5 weeks (all my others came at 39 weeks so I assume this one will too 😆).

They determined he’s just a very chill baby. 😂 His baseline heart rate was 110 for the visit and NST, so they sent me for an ultrasound. Ultrasound was fine, his heart rate was 110 but they got him to wiggle and move and raise it a bit (122) so they felt good about it.

Like general blood panel? Nope, only general panel I've gotten has been at my first tri intake appt. Then they draw for the glucose test(s). Sorry about your frustrations. It's tough when you don't feel like you're being heard.

I’ll be 35 weeks tomorrow. Not sure I’ll make it to 37 weeks. 😬 My blood pressure has started to rise a bit. Not crazy high, but enough where they want me to check every day. Plus I’m doing nsts now, twice a week.
I’m done though. I’d like for babies to cook more, but at this point anything after 35 weeks is cool with all my doctors. I don’t know.
I don’t have any of the signs of preeclampsia like headaches or protein in Urine. But they say that stuff usually creeps up on ya. So we’ll see how I do with my nst today.

Those last few weeks with twins are BRUTAL.

I had an NST this morning and it went well. I felt fine. Came home and my stomach started hurting. I’ve felt nauseous all day and not able to eat and I just had an emergency bathroom situation. Not sure if I ate something or it’s just one of those things or if things are getting ready. I’m 37&5 today. I’m having a total anxiety attack right now at the thought of getting the baby out. For some reason I’m almost more scared this time!

For some reason I’m almost more scared this time! How are ya feeling today?? Were you having contractions at all yesterday? I had a similar thing happen with DD1 (the whole diarrhea thing) and that coupled with contractions is how labor started with her. It was kind of a blessing because then I didn’t poop while pushing 😆

I think I just had a stomach bug or food poisoning because no contractions and today I feel much better. Lucky me lol we will see. Maybe I’ll go into labor today. I’m definitely empty now! 🤣

I’m at an nst right now. I did my pre-op yesterday. Can’t even walk anymore. Also, I got out of the car like a fucking Republican with no mask. I wanted the earth to swallow me whole. I can’t wait until Thursday.

Update on me: I got my J&J vaccine last Tuesday! Super pumped about that.
Baby was sleepy for my NST this morning so I had to go to the hospital for additional monitoring. One of my nurses from High Risk saw my name in triage and came to visit, so that was pretty sweet. He performed there so I'm finally back home starting work.
My doc put in paperwork to schedule my CS for 37 weeks but it still isn't done. The hospital apparently loves to give them the run around when they try to schedule ahead of time. Makes total sense...

Sorry about the NST! I had one today too. When I got up this morning she wasn’t moving. I tried everything and nada. I finally got her to move enough that I was okay waiting for my already scheduled appointment and of course she was fine but ugh. I can’t wait for these babies to be safe on the outside!

I have my last nst today. I’m so happy. I’m just over having to be here several times a week. Good thing is, my H is finally on Paternity leave and has been dropping me off right in front of the clinic so I don’t have to do the long walk from the parking structure to the clinic. That’s been tough to walk.

How's everyone doing?
I passed my NST this morning faster than ever before. He was BUSY in there...must've liked the protein shake I drank on the way in. I should be getting a call today about getting my CS scheduled for next week! SO CLOSE.

I had an eventful day. Baby girl did not pass her NST this morning so we got sent to labor and delivery to be monitored. Once we got hooked up she started bouncing around like crazy and after two hours of her looking good they decided to send me home. Of course I’m worried and paranoid now. I go back on Wednesday and I’ll be 40 weeks so I think we are going to make a plan to evict her in the next week if she doesn’t decide to come on her own.

You all are making me jealous. I still have a month to go 😭 Hoping for smooth deliveries!
My OB has decided I was misdiagnosed with GD, and said I could drop down to two finger pokes a day rather than four, but I still need to stick to the diet just in case. I was so glad I was wearing a mask. If that doctor could have seen my face when she said “misdiagnosed.”
