michyme123 it's our most ridiculous snowflake like thoughts for the week. But really it's just another way to start convo around here. ; ). I wouldnt really say there are rules.
Got out of the shower. Was moisturizing my face and suddenly realized my one leg was freakishly wet. Convinced my water had just broken. Nope; I had just forgotten to dry that leg. Sigh.
Haven't felt the baby move at all this morning, so I'm sipping coffee and moving my belly around to wake the little buggar up so I can relax.
Lately I've found that singing (in a high pitched voice) and moving him around manually are the best ways to get my DB to move when I'm worried - more affective than sugary drinks or even coffee. But also, usually, I just need to wait... My DB isn't moving much at all this morning either, but last night he was kicking the hell out of me!

I totally know better, but I am feeling very crampy today and I've managed to convince myself that I will go into labor today. I'm hoping I just need to fart like PP.

Mine is more AW than SS, but nice weather has made me feel good about being pregnant again! I trimmed my bangs and am rocking some cut offs, about to head out grocery shopping with my cute self
I measured 31 weeks at my last appt, when I was almost 33 weeks. Freaked out even though I don't believe she actually measured correctly (she couldn't really get to the pubic bone because of the pants I had on so I feel like she guesstimated). With my last pregnancy I always measured on the dot or ahead so I convinced myself there was something wrong - even though I didn't think she measured right and even though I'm still within range of normal. I'm mostly over it now and have used it as an excuse to eat an extra scone.

Add me to the So Gassy I Thought I Was Going Into Early Labor SS category! I'm pretty sure I woke SO up several times with my farts last night, not that I care AT ALL since he keeps me up with his snoring every night of our lives
I am also having lots of SS thoughts about my belly button lately. I always have I have to admit, my whole pregnancy and really my entire life, but they are super special lately. I have a really deep inny, like I've never ever found the bottom of it and I've searched for it my whole life kind of deep. It just keeps going in LOL! Before I was ever pregnant I had an SS imaginary concern that in pregnancy it would "turn outtie" and be like a super outtie, like come undone or something and be a really long, unattractive noodley appendage hanging from my midsection. Gross, I know, sorry. I kind of banished that, and figured its just going to stay in, since up until recently it was looking just as deep as ever just stretched. BUT now as my belly has been getting REAALLLLYY big the last couple weeks, it is starting to HURT and looks kind of like it has a halo around it and I'm feeling scuurrrred Does anyone else have belly button pains going on?? Does anyone else have belly button fears? I am showing my Specialest Special Snowflakeneess right here right now!!!

carolyngrace, you GO! I wish I felt any percentage as cute and confident as you look right now, you look AMAZING!!! I'm a total frump fest today as usual!
carolyngrace you look great! And helped inspire what I am going to wear today lol! I need to dress up nice tonight but was also going to be in public this afternoon and didnt know how to dress myself ha.
My SS- I was telling H I can't believe how high this baby can actually kick. DS was so low I never got rib kicks or crazy things like that. He asked me if it can kick my heart. I laughed at him, knowing that just the day before I thought 'how does this baby miss my heart?!'
I woke up with a head cold yesterday morning and it has gotten worse. Was hoping for a good night sleep last night to fight it off, but I woke up to pee like 4 times.
I hate not being able to zonk myself out with NyQuil!
Eta: I have never participated in ss Saturday I hope my post makes sense in it? Judging by the previous posters is it a complaining thread? I have no idea lol
+1 for missing the Nyquil....about the only thing that helps with my sinuses is Nyquil Sinus so I'm in rough shape right now.
Total SS here with this, but I am pretty convinced that I could feel baby boy breathing yesterday afternoon. I was lounging back on my bed (just slightly reclined) and on my phone. Usually all movements are spastic and cause my phone to move all around on my belly. Well I could feel the movement, but it was so so so soft. And it was very rhythmic, but pretty slow. Definitely wasn't hiccups because those are super distinct and have become pretty rough lately. Definitely wasn't the heartbeat because it was no where near that fast. The only thing I think it could be was the little baby heavy breathing while he was sleeping, because there was no other movement at all, just in this one area. So yeah, it was the sweetest thing ever in the entire world. I told my husband, and he got all teary eyed. Who knows what it really was, but it totally makes sense in my mind.
I just paid 50 euro. Plan to lie facedown on the living room floor as soon as it gets here and get a massage using it. I'd kill to be able to float facedown in a pool right now.
I was having tearing sensations along with BH... where I'd previously had a c-section. I freaked out a bit, but I was doing a solo run to the grocery store and I only had about 2 more items to grab. Once in the car, the BH kind of went away, and so did the feeling of having been knifed. The SS part? I still called the urgent care line. (If it happens again, I know what to do, at least. Well... maybe. She said to palpate for a tear, and to come in if the tearing sensation worsened.)
I'm starting to get really freaked out about where all this extra skin from my belly stretching is going to go after delivery. The OB (one of the few in the practice I hadnt seen before) made a comment about how far out my bump sticks and said, "But there's nowhere else for it to go, really, with you being so short and small boned. Let's hope it shrinks back down again once you deliver!" I KNOW in my head that he was kidding but now I keep imagining standing up after delivery and having a huge flap of skin just hanging down to my thighs. I KNOW that doesn't happen (BFF only has the tiniest little pooch and my mom has zero stretch marks or skin flaps after 5 pregnancies) but I'm still freaked out! You can flame me for being superficial...
I mowed the grass (well half of it) again today. I'm somehow convinced the sound of the mower is going to make LO deaf. I know he can hear it because he startles when it starts.

I'm currently at the hospital getting a potassium IV drip because my potassium level was "critically" low. My IV burns, so the nurse put an ice pack on it. I took a nap and woke up with my leg/crotch soaked. I panicked for a minute thinking my water had broke but it was actually the ice pack leaking lol.
DH is the ss today. Little girl has been super low this whole pregnancy and never kicks higher then a few inches above my belly button. Well today after I mentioned he got all worried and thought maybe she was a midget. I had to reassure him that she is measuring right on track and no she's just hanging out super low!
On a more serious note I have the worst pain in my belly when I sleep. It's almost like cramping but it just hurts really bad in my lower abdomen. Does anyone else have this? And I get a lot of BH at night too. Am I sleeping wrong? It is really worrying me.

Yes. Scary. Uncomfortable. When I get up it is painful and I convince myself I'm in labor and don't know it because it hurts and my belly is all hard. Idk what it is but it started recently, even flipping sides hurt. -.- I always forget after I wake up and take the dog out and get something to drink because it subsides. I often wonder if I dont drink enough water during the night.

Yes flipping sides definitely hurts! And I wonder if I am not getting enough water at night either. I drink a shit ton during the day but maybe not enough at night? I don't know. I just can't get comfortable anymore because of all the pain in my stomach. I mean I expected the hip/pelvic/back pain but not this. I often wonder if it's how I sleep? I use the snoogle for my legs and belly and am a total belly sleeper but I don't think I am actually sleeping on my stomach. It is definitely scary though..
