Love feeling Mathew bouncing around in there. This time around I know my baby is growing proportionately because his kicks and punches are stronger. My belly continues to grow which is such a relief. I notice his sleeping patterns however they have been changing here and there which puts me in a panic since I am not feeling him when I should feel him. The good ol' cold juice trick works every time when I start getting nervous. Yesterday, I got blood taken to check my TSH levels to make sure that the decrease in Synthroid (.75 mcg to .50 mcg) brings my Levels back to around .2 and not 0.037 (which in the beginning of pregnancy and HCG hormone levels that is Normal). I do feel a difference and I continue to feel good! Monday i have scheduled my glucose test! Can't wait to get that out of the way.
I have not started any swelling in my feet and ankles this time around which again proves to me things are going well this time. My ankles were so swollen with Connor, even though "normal" in pregnancy, I know it was not normal for me.
I have less than 100 days left... not really sure how many days since we did not schedule my induce date yet. Hopefully only 91 days left and I hold this Little Baby Boy in my arms.
One day at a time...

 | Comment from MalPal85 » Posted Nov. 6, 2015 10:38am Glad all is well! I get nervous when I don't feel my baby when he usually moves either. He is usually always busy at around 4:00am and if I don't feel him after getting up to use the bathroom I play with my phone until I feel him then go back to sleep because I'm a nut case. Good luck on the glucose test! |
 | Comment from Kitten90 » Posted Nov. 6, 2015 9:42am I always get nervous when my baby's sleep pattern changes too =/ Like you said though, the cold juice trick usually does it lol she perks right up after that. Lately she's been super active all night when I'm trying to sleep and once or twice during the day. At 35+ weeks I think she's starting to get frustrated with her lack of room because she pushes on me really hard ! |
