Mommies to be check in

I have a call into the office. I hate having to leave voicemails for the nurses. I have an appointment next Tuesday evening too but I'd like to know if it is okay before then. It definitely is super painful. I have had the round ligament pain, like when I turn wrong in bed or move too quick like Kat said but this is totally different and happens at the strangest times. I have been feeling like he was kicking or punching my cervix for a while which I was told is normal but on Thanksgiving, I was standing up and playing Wii and it was a sudden knife stabbing pain coinciding with what felt like movement from the baby and I literally just dropped to my knees in tears it hurt so bad. And in the past few days it happens when I am laying perfectly still in bed or when I am in my desk chair at work, so no sudden movements on my part trigger it.

Margie that sounds awful. I havent had that so im no help. did the docs office call you back?

 

Mrs Martin - Matthew is so cute. Cant believe he's 4 months old already.

Thanks, I can't believe he's 4 months either. He's at such a fun age right now. Everything I do cracks him up! How are you feeling?

Hello Ladies,

 

I'm just checking in. We are expecting our first child May 7, 2010.

Congrats!!!!

Hi ladies, thanks for all the feedback, sorry for the delayed response. Doc got back to me and says "its normal" (I hate that phrase). She said that it is most likely just intense pressure from the baby moving down into position and he is probably hitting the cervix directly with his fingers/hands. So now I just picture this baby trying to claw his way out. She also said that the sharpness could be my cervix thinning. She said some woman can actually feel this happening? News to me but...she's the professional. She said we will do an internal at my next visit to see if I am effaced, so that will be tomorrow night.

congrats to all the newly preggers and the congrats on the recent babies! andrea i missed that you had your penelope! super cute and love the pic with the pug! kat, baby ashlyn is precious!

 

danielle, hope you're feeling well ... not long to go now!

awww how cute he likes when mommy makes a funny. that's so sweet. I hope i have a happy baby too. And i feel fine.

Congratulations!

Gotta love how every weird a$$ thing is normal when your pregnant. so tonights your internal, goodluck. let us know how you make out.

Thanks for asking Lisa. I feel fine just some minor things like acid reflux. Which i never had till i got preggers and i get it from anything like water and bread. But than if i eat a burrito with hot sauce i wont get it. So weird. How are you doing?

Margie~ Glad to hear that it's just something "normal"! When are you due again?

So, still leaning toward the "normal" thing even after my appointment last night. She said it would only be a cause for concern if I had extended cramping along with the sharp pain and if it was a constant sharp pain, not something that comes and goes. She said if I had the cramping and constant pain that she would want to check for uterine rupture but since its a sporadic pain it doesn't raise any red flags for her. I guess me seeing red doesn't matter, I laid in bed in agony last night and thought I was going to squeeze all feeling out of DH's hand. Amy, I am due Feb 16.
