getting my second sweep today, hopefully will help things progress a bit more. got my first one on monday and have had some pains and had a show.
@shelbylynnearthur, just getting ready for mine so hoping i get good news too! @cmcdon203 you never know you could walk out of there without a scratch ! Our bodies can be funny like that
aw am sure you will be fine. just had my sweep done, still 1-2cm but she said my cervix is really stretchy so thats a good sign xx @cmcdon203 @b.margyte
@b.margyte, @shelbylynnearthur I bled for a full night after them attempting to insert the speculum 🙈 must b tight nothing has been near there since I fell preg 🙈 baby is going to rip me to shreds I think 🙈 xx
@shelbylynnearthur, get the tea in you after it and tell the midwife to have a ball down there 😂🙈 i told mine if i have to have the second one she has to be rougher 😂 good luck and hope you have your wee one here soon!
I got the sweep thursday and then got the show on friday but no pains 😥 hopefully as i said we are both in pain by midnight today 🙈 @shelbylynnearthur
aw i got my sweep done monday night and had my show and pains the next day xx @b.margyte
@shelbylynnearthur, same i was 1-2 cm dilated and i think 2cm long and i never had a bleed just a show that night !
aw not so good, my midwife just used her fingers to do mine xx @cmcdon203
@cmcdon203, just try to relax through it the speculum is thicker than most fingers if thats what worries you 😂🙈 but honestly the more relaxed you are the less discomfort
yeah hopefully!!😂 yeah thats true, i was already 1-2cm dilated when i got my done. some people bleed after getting a sweep but i never xx @b.margyte @cmcdon203
thy couldn't even get a speculum up me other day so I'm terrified of my sweep xx
@shelbylynnearthur, hope we are both in pain by midnight ! 😂🙈 @cmcdon203 not painful more uncomfortable than anything tbh but apparently its different for everyone and depends on how rough your midwife is
aw well fingers crossed for you!! yeah al be doing the exact same haha x @b.margyte
Getting my second one today aswell! Hoping it does something :/ gonna get back and just bounce on this ball while chugging rasp leaf tea 😂🙈
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
