This may be a bit of a TMI post but pregnancy is like that
So beginning yesterday noon-ish I noticed I was feeling baby less. A bit later I noticed a straining/pressure/ ache in my vagina area. Definitely not contraction like and I feel like I overdid it I the activity area this weekend in general. I did feel some movement last night but it didn't wake me like it usually does. Today has continued that pressure though I've been very lazy on purpose. Reduced movement is also still happening.
My OB was closed today so I decided to give it today and evaluate in the morning. Anyone have any tips to wake him up?

Just ate some very sugary apple crisp in hopes that he responds. I did just pull out my Doppler and found his heartbeat almost instantly so I know he's still there. Sure enough as I am typing this I get kicked.  kids... begin worrying you before they are even born. |

DH took DD to her ballet class tonight.
I should be working on something (laundry, straightening, etc...) but I am being lazy. I am eating a popsicle while watching TV.

jessijean, I also felt reduced movement this morning but she amped back up by the afternoon. I think sometimes they just have "quiet" times. That said, no one will be upset with you at the docs office if you need a little reassurance all is ok!

My back pain is out of control today. My apt with the chiro isn’t until Thursday. I might call them tomorrow to see if I can bump it up. I can barely move without going into full blown spasms. 😩

Thanks all, and happy thanksgiving to everyone else up here!
Our weekend started off busy with a lot of driving to H's grandma's memorial but we got back yesterday and it was good to see family we rarely see.
Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure I got my strep throat back, luckily I was able to find an open clinic today and get in but the doctor didn't want to get me started on another prescription for it this time until my test results come back. So it's been a painful day and I'm sure will be until Wednesday-ish when he gets back to me, bleh.
But we made it to my parents farm anyway and my siblings and grandma, and had full out Thanksgiving supper which I kind of had to force down my throat but dang it nothing was going to hold me back from eating it lol!

When DS1 had strep his Dr said toss his toothbrush and tooth paste. This can be a way to get it again. That really stinks! The last time I had step was college and I can still remember how painful it was. Like swallowing shards of glass. Feel better soon! |

Guys, please stop by General Discussions and show Jananigans some love TW -adoption loss. Her EM backed out so she will not be able to Adopt the baby. That is so sad. What makes me so angry is that the match fee seems like it is non-refundable. I don't see how laws can be written that way. Families pay the match fee/adoption fee/legal fees to bring home a baby and if the birth mom backs out then most of that should be refunded. Our pastor was adopting a baby about a year ago and the BM was scamming them all along. Pastor and his family was paying medical expenses, living expenses and paying the adoption agency all the way up to the end and BM had the baby and just disappeared. Stories like this are why I don't think I would ever adopt in the US, too expensive and too much risk for heart break. |

That's heartbreaking I've never looked closely into adoption but I can't imagine having to pay out all of that $$ and not bring a baby home. I mean, I know things can go horribly wrong in pregnancy too and you pay out lots of money but when it's so dependent on another person like that, another layer of hurt. |
