Thread: A bit nervous...

I just don't feel right. I don't know how to describe it. However, this is how I felt the day before I went into labor with DD.

I am hoping this is not a sign that I will be going into labor soon. I will only be 34 weeks tomorrow. This is too early for the boys to be here! I have to make it aleast another 2 weeks. However, this feeling I have is just making me nervous. I hope it goes away soon.

Please say a little prayer for me that I make it atleast another 2 weeks.

I felt similarly about when I was where you are... I said, I feel like I did the day before I had my daughter. And I didn't go into labor, thank goodness.

Lay down. Stay put.

I'll be praying for you!! They would be ok if born now though right? Not that I want them to be! I've been feeling pretty crappy lately too. Last night was extra rough, but I keep trying to avoid ob/triage. I can't wait for DH to get here this weekend.

Again, rest, take it easy, nap, and then take a rest. Keep those LO's cooking.

I will certainly keep you in my prayers. Hopefully you're just having an off day and this feeling will subside for you.

Thanks ladies. I do feel a little bit better today.

When I was getting my NST yesterday many people in the office congratulated me for making it to 34 weeks - I thought it was strange. It seems a little early to be happy. I keep telling myself at least another 2 weeks, 2 weeks.

My body is starting to show signs it is getting ready. However all the signs could mean delivery is still a couple of weeks away - which is what I am counting on. I am having small contractions and the boys must have dropped because my stomach is noticeably different today. It is not as big and lower. I am also having some discharge.

Stephanie - from what I have read and been told by my dr, at 34 weeks the babies should NOT have perment problems from being born early but will probably have to be in the NICU for a while for breathing and weight gain. At 35 weeks, some babies are big enough and can breathe well enough they don't have to go to the NICU but many will. At 36 weeks, most babies (but not all) are OK to leave with mom, like normal. So that is the point where my hospital will deliver.

I'll keep praying you make it to then. 35 or 36 I think is my dr goal, but she said 37 is when she will sched c-sec if I haven't gone already. (and let me tell you, I w/b a MESS) I'm guessing at this point they won't stop me if I go into labor and we are pretty much assuming ours will be in NICU, but more common with triplets than twins I'm sure. Keep them growing girl!! Please be sure to rest and relax so they can stay in there.

How about we NOT have a race to the end huh?

34 weeks is a terrific milestone to hit! You have to celebrate each one

34 wks is great, just a few more milestones to hit! Keep it up!

Jennie I am SO glad to read that the babies are still baking!

I wish I could have gotten one more vacation in with just the 5 of us but it wasn't in the cards. Next time we try to head out we will be a pack of 7 - just like you I believe.
