#pootsen This LO hasn't gotten hiccups yet 😕 DS1 got them every night at the same time, I miss having that feeling. Also, rice crispies are life. I made some last week for the boys with M&Ms on top. But since they didn't try the dinners we made, I ended up eating them instead. It took a little over a week. 😉 Funny enough, this week, they are trying at least a bit of dinner now.

DD got them multiple times a day. I don't feel them every day with this one, which is too bad. It reassures me that she's head down when I get cervical hiccups.

It just took me four tries to spell pupil.
I need coffee and/or a nap.

DD gets hiccups once or twice a day, and I always feel them right up the top, letting me know she's still breech lol.
Any mums had breech babies before? When did they turn? (If they did lol) 32 weeks on Sunday so DD is in the count down so she better put her head down lol. DS was always head down, he was a good boy lol

Then she turned and put her head down.

I feel hiccups in my cervix so I'm hoping baby boy is head down now!!!
Babies can turn either way at any point but here's hoping all the babies turn down and stay turned!!

My next appt is at 33 weeks, and the MW says at that point they will start to come up with a baby flipping plan if she's still head up (or like, head side in my case). She was being really nuts on Wednesday night, so I was hoping it was turning day, but I can still feel her lil head up top, so no luck. MW says she recommends acupuncture, but I'm a bit of a skeptic! I am going to keep up with my yoga though hoping that'll get her moving. Squats/cat-cow/hip circles, that kind of stuff when I remember too.

Oh, and I think she's had hiccups once or twice, takes me a minute to realize that is what it must be! But it's definitely on the side where her head is.

My first was breech and he never turned, but I had to deliver a bit early at 37w4d. I tried absolutely everything to get that little stinker to turn and he never did. Inversion exercises, chiropractic adjustments, moxibustion, music/light therapy, ECV (twice!) and nothing worked. I still have some moxibustion sticks and I will gladly send them anyone's way if they still have a breech baby later on and want to try it!

That's there's probably nothing you can do about it, lol. Sorry all of your trying didn't work out My SIL tried ECV and said it was the worst thing ever and it didn't work and she'd never do it again. So props to you for trying everything!

If DD is still breech at 34 weeks (growth scan) I will get midwife to give me all sorts of things to help turn her. I don't want her to be physically turned though, I just really don't like the idea of that. It'll be a section for me if she doesn't turn as I am not remotely happy with delivering her head last as DS head was stuck and forceps were involved, it was very traumatic because of his big ol' head lol. I'll do everything apart from the moving her though, I'm not to worried yet!

Just went to Sephora for some retail therapy, and the salesgirl randomly blurted out that she found out she was pregnant this morning and totally overwhelmed. So I'm consoling/reassuring her in the eye cream section...and then was awkwardly like "so I need to get going...good luck. Also which one of these is best for dark circles?"

We're packed up and heading to my parents' house for a long weekend. Irma's latest prediction looks like we'll be safe at home, but I didn't want to risk it. Monday should be the worst of it, and schools have already called off. I have a hospital bag semi-packed with us. 😳

roloma hope diabetes class goes well! You'll be a star pupil. Thank you! It was pretty easy. The dietitian joked at one point that I should probably just teach the class. There was only one other woman in the class today and she was fairly clueless. I felt bad for her. I am glad to get going on the testing. She had me do a practice test at 1hr 20m after a snack and I was at 82. I just did a true 2hr after a meal and got a 72. It looks like I can probably start adding more things back in. I'll see what dinner and fasting look like but so far so good! She did tell me that I need to eat more carbs. I am eating probably around 100g a day but I should be at 175-200g. Ugh. I am not sure about eating another 100g of "good" carbs. I feel like I am eating so many already. I'll have to start getting creative.

roloma that's great! Hope your evening numbers look good. And yay for getting to eat more carbs!! Sometimes I'll just add a slice of whole wheat bread to my meal if I know I need some carbs but don't want to think about it too much.

I met my mom and aunt at the local botanical garden today for lunch/a walk. It's so beautiful out here. I'm happy that the weather is starting to cool down. The gardens have a special butterfly exhibit so we saw sooooo many butterflies. It was very cool.

I have no idea how baby is positioned right now. I think s/he is head down based on hiccups in my butt. I had so many u/s with my son. I always knew how he was measuring and what position he was in. It's so bizarre to have only had two with this pregnancy. Trust me when I say I am very grateful for being low risk this time around, but I do miss the extra sneak peeks.

Sometimes I'll just add a slice of whole wheat bread to my meal if I know I need some carbs but don't want to think about it too much. I have a FFFC: I pretty much hate bread unless it is crusty white dipping bread. And I REALLY hate wheat bread. It is hard enough to eat the few pieces a day I already eat. I am going to have to go through my food lists and see what carb options are easy that I can just throw with each meal. Of course, I would prefer a giant heap of white carbs but alas, I guess I will have to come up with another option

I've actually been surprised that white bread is not as bad as I thought, as long as you don't eat a gigantic piece of it. And I also LOAD it with butter...because I can.

I'm glad you're headed away from the storm paperbagliz! My (dumb) friends just headed to Disney world yesterday because they didn't want to 'lose money'. I just read that the parks will be closed Sunday and Monday, so they will basically be losing anyway. Silly people. It looks so pretty there grumpycat! roloma, I love bread! I eat toast almost every breakfast. What about: oatmeal, granola and yogurt, crackers and cheese?

blabbermouth, cheese is a staple. I have been eating it constantly. I am leaning towards crackers because I don't have to eat too many to get a decent number of carbs. Good Food Should Taste Good multigrain tortilla chips with guac or hummus have been good too. I just need to find a decent array so I don't get sick of anything. I don't like oatmeal or yogurt. I swear I am not a picky eater...despite what it looks like!
