I am 39 and a half weeks pregnant. I wake up every night on the hour hungry or with leg cramps, or I have to pee. Then it takes foreever to fall back to sleep. Last night I had the worst back pain since I have been pregnant. It is a chore to sleep at night. I know after my daughter comes I wont sleep much either. Ahhhhh anyone relate? ↓

| yes I can.....I am only 28 weeks and already cant sleep. I have major leg cramps and have to pee every hour and my husband snores like crazy! I work everyday fulltime and have a 3 year old and am so overwhelmed sometimes, I feel physiclly sick. I talked to my doctor and it said it was ok to take tylenol p.m. wich helps ALOT but I dont want to take it all the time, so I still have a lot of bad nights. And like you sad, once the baby comes it will be more crazy!!! Maybe we could just start wandering around like crazy zombies eh?? You are so close to giving birth! I am not due till June 7th. Good luck to you!!!!! ↑ |

| wow Kristin you have ways to go yet huh? so what are you having? i'm having twin girls so labor and delivery should be intresting ↑ |
| Name: kristin | Date: Mar 15th, 2006 3:46 PM |
| Im having a little boy! Twin girls-wow, that will be so much fun! This will be my 2nd boy. Ya Ive got a ways to go. Im nervous because my baby's kidneys have a little fluid in them, wich is considered a marker for down syndrome. I took the triple screen blood test, and everything came back normal, giving me a 1/1000 chance of having a downs baby, but im still freaking out about it. Pregnancy is so scary and I have so far to go!!! What will you name your girls? ↑ |
| Name: Beckie | Date: Mar 15th, 2006 3:56 PM |
| Wow that is really scary honey. I'm going to name my girls Jessica and Jennifer. I'll be praying for you and your baby that he won't have down syndrome but even if he does you know that you will love him just the same. Do you have names picked out? ↑ |
| Name: kristin | Date: Mar 15th, 2006 4:09 PM |
| We are going to name him Kyler. My other little boy is named Drake. Ya im scared, but I think I need to just calm down. A 1 in 1000 chance of having a downs baby isnt that big of a chance ya know. Thanks for your prayers!!! ↑ |
| Name: Beckie | Date: Mar 15th, 2006 4:14 PM |
I really like that name Kyler and yes try and calm down. You dont' want to stress out yourself or the baby too much either.
How has your back been doing? mine is killing me. ↑ |
| Name: kristin | Date: Mar 15th, 2006 4:21 PM |
| my back is ok. I have only gained 13 lbs, so im not too big yet, im sure my back will hurt soon though. It did in my first pregnancy. I am trying to calm down...I can only do so much ya know? Can you take anything for your back? ↑ |
| Name: Beckie | Date: Mar 15th, 2006 4:25 PM |
| Yes try and calm down sweetie. As for my back i can't take anything. Just one of the bonuses of being pregnant huh? ↑ |
| Name: kristin | Date: Mar 15th, 2006 4:29 PM |
| oh there are so many bonuses arent there????!!!! Ya know pregnancy isnt my favorite thing. the only thing I like is feeling my baby move. I am just ready for the baby now!! ↑ |

wow i am 32 weeks and so far soooo lucky cause i wake up only like 3 or 4 times to pee but i am usually able to go right back to sleep .... ive got good pillows and a pregnancy pillow and i think working out and exercising helps if you are able.... even though ive gained 45 (yes 45!!!) pounds!
ive said it before and i will say it again go on baby center and buy a snoogle!!!!! like 40 dollars and so worth it cause of the way it cradles your back and you prop it up with more pillows and it is heaven. ↑ |

| So hearing you have gained 45 pounds makes me feel so much better. I have gained 51. I feel so sexxy right now.LOL. I am pretty lucky though My husband still tries to help me feel beautiful. And my 4 year old daughter has been such an angel. Still I am so over being pregnant. The first 6 months were great. Now the excitement in gone.I have a docters apointment today. Maybe she will tell me I am in labor and just cant feel it LOL. I have been dialated to 3 for 2 weeks. ↑ |
| Name: kristin | Date: Mar 15th, 2006 5:02 PM |
| i would be asking my doctor to induce me!! I cant believe I am only 28 weeks along. I think I have been prego now for 2 years or so! Only 12 more weeks right????????? ↑ |
| Name: Cris | Date: Mar 15th, 2006 5:05 PM |
| I have aske to be induced. They wont concider it till 42 weeks.Its funny I had alarm set on phone for due date. Like A count down. It just frustrated me. ↑ |
| Name: kristin | Date: Mar 15th, 2006 5:07 PM |
| WHY?????? 42 weeks?? Maybe you should just go on a lot of walks while drinking castor oil. LOL! ↑ |
| Name: Cris | Date: Mar 15th, 2006 5:19 PM |
| I have a midwife instead of a docter. And they think the baby and my body should have a chance to do this with out Inducement. I tell you what castor oil is starting to sound better and better.But..... scared to try that. ↑ |
| Name: kristin | Date: Mar 15th, 2006 5:22 PM |
| I took castor oil with my first pregnancy and went into labor that night. But my contractions started at 3 minutes apart, and they were so strong and hurt!! ↑ |
| Name: Cris | Date: Mar 15th, 2006 5:26 PM |
| You know thats the funny thing. I am so ancious to go into labor I am sure I will be wishing its over before long (labor). Things were so different with my last baby. I was indused very early with her do to complications. I had already had a epidural when I was dialated to 4. ↑ |
| Name: kristin | Date: Mar 15th, 2006 5:32 PM |
| You will have your babies before you know it. what kind of complications did you have with the first pregnancy? ↑ |
| Name: Cris | Date: Mar 15th, 2006 5:35 PM |
| Her intestions were on the outside of her stomach. We were at UCSF for 2 months she went through 3 surgerys and didn't eat for the first month of her life. She was on IV' fluid. She is a super 4 year old now. It will be awsome to not go through that experience again ↑ |
| Name: kristin | Date: Mar 15th, 2006 5:41 PM |
| oh my gosh that sounds like such a terrible thing to have gone through. Im glad everything worked out. I hate bieng so scared in pregnancy. Its a hard thing to get through. I know in my heart my baby will be fine, but I just want to hold him now so I can make sure! As for you and labor, I really hope you have your babies soon, and everything goes well. Im sure it will:) ↑ |
| Name: Cris | Date: Mar 15th, 2006 5:48 PM |
| Thank you. As long as you know in your heart every thing will be fine. Then it will. Thats how it was for me. I knew my daughter would be okay no mater what and she was just fine ↑ |
