Cooley Dickinson Child-Birth Center Visit 1

Okay so yesterday after my OB-GYN visit... and having a rough time with little Mr. Kayden not moving much... even though he's a very active baby according to doctors from previous visit and him barely moving yesterday I called the on call service at 5:05 pm since the office was closed... Told them what was going on who I saw and what they told me to do if there wasn't much movement... not much movement but seriously was in pain and a pushing down feeling when I was doing things... from cooking, to cleaning to just walking... go figure... So I waited and ten minutes later my regular doctor... who happens to be my favorite called me asked me about my visit and I explained everything that happened and he was just as confused as I was... I explained what was going on ... I was told to eat and drink something with sugar... well yeah that didn't work too well... since no sooner did I get off the phone with them... and get in-touch with my mother I lost all power... we had no power for about a nice 45 minutes- ish ... WHICH SUCKED... since my oldest hates the DARK, my youngest could care less if it was day time or night time light or dark... he's just the complete opposite from his big brother.
So I finally eat and drink something with sugar...
Dr. Pepper 64 grams of sugar in a 20oz bottle yup... it was yummy! I ate some regular food... and some mints... that had some sugar in them ... yet no changes... I timed his movement since I got off the phone with the OB-GYN office which was at 5:30 pm and called them back around 9:01 pm and got a return call with in ten minutes and was told they wanted to see me for monitoring... they did monitor me for 20 minutes... then they said they were gonna do an ultrasound... that got me a little worried... the wanted to make sure he had enough fluids, that he was alright and that he was breathing ... first sign of distress is I guess they stop breathing inside you... something they don't really have to do inside you but helps them practice for when they come out... Kayden is in ready position ... his butt is up and we know it cause we hit it and he didn't like it too much he def. told us by causing some serious pain... which I informed the doctors and they said that was normal but to be careful... so after that they had me empty my bladder and get ready for another exam... joyful since I'm still 2 cm dilated and his head is DOWN on my CERVIX it's right there... so I guess for me a lot of walking, to try to push this little one out faster... I would love to get him out sooner rather than later... We did get discharged a little after 11 pm at which time I started to get hungry again. Grrr... it kinda sucked since I had only eaten like two meals yesterday... So we stopped at stop & shop and got some munchies and something to drink since we both started getting thirsty... well yeah ... let's just say my husband SHARED his Dr. Pepper with me in the car and in the bed last night so sleep was an object of the past. As soon as I went to lay down I got up to pee and realized I had a bloody nose... as it came dripping outta my nose...Grrrr they suck and are ten times worse during a pregnancy cause of the amount of blood the body produces... joyful... Well that's been my update for now... today's morning I've had some contractions nothing to get excited about but all def. keep you all updated... as I keep myself aware of everything going on. Today's just gonna be insane, long and trying for me... praying the person who's to help me doesn't back out on me... if they do I guess I contact my sister and she come's down from Greenfield to of course help because at least she won't bail out on me... unlike the last person who said she was gonna help and then bailed out on me hour before she was supposed to come and then thinks we will help her when she wants last minute FUCK THAT.. I'm pregnant and could give two shits bout your crazy, insane and annoying son. You should know your friends and know Lorne won't do anything unless talking it over with me... and we aren't a taxi service either!
Well I'm off to get the kids and myself ready cause we have to bring my husband his cell phone since he left it at home... Grr I wanted a mellow day... yup yeah right this SUCKS!

OB-GYN Visit Wrap Up

11.8.2012 at 1:59 pm 

I'm 36 weeks and 1 day pregnant... or 9 months and a day! Either way today I got the clear from the Dr. I don't really like who WAS SICK to say the least that I could have Kayden! Yay... so the whole time I cried in pain last night/ early this am because it was semi snowing out and thought I had to keep him in I could have called and been seen... yeah at 4 something but hey. So at that time I was having cramps, contractions and pushing feeling and then lack of movement... they were a little concerned with his not so hyper self ... he's normally all about kicking the monitor as we check his heartbeat and all about moving away from it... yet today he just stayed still and moved twice... yikes but since I didn't wanna get stuck on a machine for an hour and a half and wasn't sure how long I'd have a baby sitter for... I told them I had to leave... well that right there was probably my WORST mistake... cause I was in mild pain when I left... it felt like he was gonna drop outta me... but I've been feeling that for awhile... I guess it's normal when you've had more than one pregnancy, but still it's very uncomfortable. Well I got some things to make lunch since I was told to go home, eat, and rest so that we could monitor him... well yeah I made food and ate and now I'm feeling 100 times worse than I did before I went to the appointment yet it feels like he's trying to escape... I just want him out... if I do end up calling and getting sent to the ER/Childbirth center all be demanding them to just help him come out cause I don't think I can go threw this on again off again teasing... especially with two son's who keep me on my toes as it is already... So now I'm sitting on my couch updating all my blogs... 

Well let's give a re-cap of what happened at my OB-GYN visit... 

Pre-pregnancy weight: 100 lbs

Pregnancy weight: 142 lbs

Pre-pregnancy height: 5' 4"

Pregnancy height: 5' 4.5" I apparently still have a little growing left in me

Pre-pregnancy pant size: 00, 0, 1, or if I was lucky a size 3

Pregnancy pant size: 5 or 7 possible heading to a size 9 that's depending on how much longer all be pregnant

So I've def. gained in some area's ... lol but I normal shrink back down after each pregnancy... 

Today's appointment was alright...

Weight- 142 lbs 

Blood Pressure- 120/72 

Symptom's- Anemic

Fetal HeartBeat- all I got was it was good... hmmm made me worry since he wasn't as hyper as he used to be... Dr. wants me to rest though and watch his movements...

** Well that's all for now... all keep you updated as the day goes on **

Rough Night & more to come!

Well last night I went to bed just a little congested ... it was around 11 pm... Wasn't too bad until I woke up with contractions, cramps and oh the wonderful bloody nose that lasted a nice 30 minutes. yesterday I hit my 9 month mark or 36 weeks...

Well my little boys who used to sleep in are now getting used to the time change and aren't sleeping in which was totally using to my benefit ooops! That was my bad... oh well we live, we learn and we move on!


Well today's been pretty easy for the most part... setting up the infant car-seats all post pictures they came out pretty nice... got them 100% clean! Yay! Can't wait to set up my car too... it's gonna be so nice...

Today we have my OB-GYN appointment at 11:20 am with a doctor I HATE! and an hour before that starts the window for the new propane company we are switching too... joyful so with in the hour of it I must leave for my OB-GYN appointment ... oh well my mother in law shall be here...


Well I must get myself motivated... and get Kayden to move around since he hasn't moved since 4 something this am... right before the contractions started... wonder if I'm gonna go into labor in the next 24/48 hours?!

36 Weeks!!!!

Wow- Haven't done that in awhile...
How Far along? 36 weeks
Size of the baby? not 100% haven't had an ultrasound to tell me exactly how big he is... so I'd be guessing
Any new symptoms? pain when he moves around :(
What are you craving? my normal pickles, mashed potatoes and chocolate occasionally
Total weight gain? about 40lbs but I need to gain another 15 to hit my objected goal for a good size baby... everything I've gained is BABY!

Movement? oh yeah ... well kinda ... he's kinda cramped up inside me
Gender? BOY- 7.16.2012 is when we found out we'd have Kayden Lucas Hatt
Nesting? A LOT... and Lorne's starting to nest with me... kinda cute
Sleeping well? if you count getting naps through out the night sleep then sure... since I see more of the whee hours than I want...
Buy anything for the baby this week? nope but for me the weeks not over!
What are you looking forward to? HIS ARRIVAL... COME ON LIL MAN MOMMY, BROTHER'S, DADDY & THE FAMILY WANT TO MEET YOU!
What are you enjoying the most/least about being pregnant this week? most the fact that he's due right around the corner, least the way I feel when I do too much :( Grrr


Next appointment is tomorrow at 11:20 am in Hadley at Woman Care OB-GYN and of course I'm seeing the one who's quick to get in and quick to get out and who obviously couldn't find my cervix the last time... like really WTF! But that's okay hopefully she will have results of the tests they took besides the iron test that I had and got back through the patient portal...

*all post pictures of this weeks bump up later...*

MORNING SICKNESS YOU SUCK

Ugh I thought I was passed the stage of Morning Sickness... it seemed to have disappeared and I was completely happy with that... yet after eating breakfast I felt wicked sick and nothing helped... then got horrible cramps and pains... hello contractions... ugh seriously not what I wanted... not when I have so much to do today... from moving three dressers, setting up a crib, re-arranging the living room for the coal stove to keep all the babies warm with the upcoming snow were supposed to get ... watch all go into full blown labor tomorrow... JOYFUL right! NOT! I'm not 100% ready!

I tried eating my normal mints, drinking ginger ale and nothing worked... the end of this pregnancy is coming near cause everything I tried wasn't working... part of me wishes that I can pick a day & have my doctor help me move this along since I'm not getting much sleep and I've noticed that I am starting to accidentally does off during the day ... not sure if it's part of morning sickness but still it is followed by it...

Well I'm 35 weeks pregnant and 6 days pregnant! Can't believe all be 36 weeks tomorrow!

Wow... I really want this nasty morning sickness to leave... it's like I'm gonna get sick yet my body won't allow myself too because I never stop and then I wind up in the ER anyways... BLAHHHHH and their ain't no point in calling my OB-GYN cause they'd say drink fluids and lay on your left side... that's apparently the answer to EVERYTHING... even contractions... and lack of fetal movement... which happens when you know your gonna go into full blown LABOR... Kayden's got his time's of pure excitement and is quiet most the night and day except when he shifts every hour when I'm sleeping to make me get up and visit the bathroom... but he's def. dropped a lot in the last week... I can feel it ... it's like he's right there... which doesn't help cause feeling sick and like your gonna go into labor SUCKS!

------ Enough with morning sickness maybe I can get over it by changing the topic or something------

So what do I really need to accomplish today... saving the car-seats! Setting up the nursery! basically getting the bedroom ready!!! & getting the coal stove going... on top of voting today! Yikes yikes yikes! ugh every time i feel like i'm gonna burp gotta love being pregnant you stomach has moved upwards so everything is smushed up inside you so you can't help it but it feels like I'm gonna be sick... nothing's keeping my mind off it... YIKES... this officially sucks... it's not heartburn cause last I knew you couldn't get that from eating waffles... yikes yikes yikes... well I'm gonna get myself semi motivated to get ready to VOTE, get some soda for today's special lunch with my sis Nicky and the boys, then of course grab veggies for tonight's dinner... yummy... and it's something I know Kayden loves. Hoping for an easy day with this nasty case of morning sickness... can't wait to set up the nursery once they move the dressers I'm setting up the crib and the bedroom then attacking the master bathroom so that I can use it instead of the down stairs bathroom too! Gotta get myself a wall hanging mirror too! yay!

Well talk to you later and yes all post pictures!
