@sreerangam,
We both are having the same due dates,.. April 13^th.. but my MIL is here with me and she says I may deliver late only as I was having a 35 day cycle.. well…don’t know…have to wait and see.. so how is <st1:city w:st="on"><st1lace w:st="on">ur</st1lace></st1:city> pregnancy moving on??is it a boy or gal?? in my case, we haven’t asked the gender/…:idea

@madhuri
Whats <st1:city w:st="on"><st1lace w:st="on">ur</st1lace></st1:city> GD update?? Hope its fine.:bonk


@kutty
Congrats on <st1:city w:st="on"><st1lace w:st="on">ur</st1lace></st1:city> baby movements.. even for me she (I am not sure if it’s a she/he..but I prefer a she.. ) is kicking constantly… enjoy

@confused

Yeah…that is really a disaster in <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1lace w:st="on">Haiti</st1lace></st1:country-region>.. :hiya


eliz

 

Hi eliz,

congrats tht ur sugar testing was gud. Ya...we both have same due date :cheers

This tuesday i have Glucose test and doctor told me that it would be for 2hrs and asked me not to eat anythng. Hope my GTT would be normal. :thumbsup

 

Hi sreerangam....

Dont worry everything will be alrite..
are you working??? i was avoiding sweets n chocolates for a week, as i was waiting for this test.. anyway.. its ok now.. so how is ur baby??

eliz

 

hi everybody!
hw r u all
here i am fine enjoying my babys movements
tomaro i ll go to my doc after one month for regular checking
take care all of urselves and your lo
byee

 

@eliz
glad to hear that u had ur GTT normal.It will be a bit relief.
Could you pls tell me abt the head position down.I did not get you.


@sree
dont worry regarding the test.I just avoided sweets from last few months and ate rice only once in a day before 1week of the
test.avoiding rice means not to skip you r dinner.I just ate bread, had milk,fruits etc...by not making my tummy empty.
I wish you all the best.How abt ur shopping and when does ur "mutterschutz" start.
yes I had it for 3hrs.before fasting, then they will give you some glucose drink and test after 1hr adn again after 1hr.that's
it.
take care.


@priya
all the best for ur check up.

hope all others are doing great.


@myupdates
I am back to work after 1 week rest.weather id getting better and hope it continues to get better.
Still 18 days more to work then I will go into my ML for 1yr.I am counting days for that.
rest all I am doing good.MY LO does'nt allow me to sleep on left side.untill i am to right he keeps on kicking me.
I think We need to obey them right from now.

Yeah amul, am relieved about my sugra test results.. About the position I said, that the baby is already in the head down position, where my MIL was saying it wont turn this early.. so I was curious to know, wether all of u having <st1:city w:st="on">ur</st1:city> baby’s head near <st1lace w:st="on"><st1:city w:st="on">ur</st1:city></st1lace> down area??
By the way it is good that you get 1 year maternity leave.. is it with pay??
As I work here in <st1:city w:st="on"><st1lace w:st="on">dubai</st1lace></st1:city>, we have only 45 days with pay maternity leave here..
Am planning to take another 2.5 months leave without pay also… I plan to come to office as far as possible. And most probably I will go for work till march 31^st and april 13^th is my due date….

Cheers!!

Dear IL's,

Hope everyone are doing good with your LO's...

@Eliz,
Hi. welcome to this club ... nice to know ur GTT test went well :thumbsup
And when did they check the position for you, is it in the 20th week ano scan or is it recently checked through scan.. i have heard for few ppl the baby turns head down during 28th week.. so i guess u might be in ur 28th week...
Hey you can check this link out it might give out an idea
http://www.babycenter.com/400_at-wh...urn-into-the-head-down-position_925351_898.bc

@Amul,
1 more week and then 1yr of maternity leave.. that is lovely , currently i am in LOP leave, so i have to join back after 8 weeks of delivery , but since my MIL will be with me always i think i could manage a little hopefully.

@Sreeranagam,
All the best for your GTT test

@Priya
Oh your going for your regular checkup, is ur GTT test done dear

@Hasya,
How are you doing, r u going for yoga classes daily, i checked out here and i am plnaning to join one which has 1 hr class on saturday, i am not sure whether that would be enough though... just thought will learn the poses and try to do it at home the rest of the days..., have u completed ur GTT test

@Madhuri,
As Amul asked what happened to your 3 hrs test... good to know that ur in ur final trimster already :thumbsup

My updates:
Everything is fine so far, but i get worried if i dont feel any movements during the day.. my LO is moving more only in the night while i am asleep, so not sure whether i am feeling the movements properly.I have my next regular check up on Jan 26th so waiting for that eagerly...

 

Hey Sandiya,

No, my yoga class is only once a week. In a way, it teaches me postures that I can use in everyday life.

Have to go for this GD test some time.

Thanks a lot for the welcome… hope everything going well with u…:thumbsup
There was the anomaly scan at 22 weeks for me… that was ok … so again in my last appointment at 27 weeks my doc said the baby is having his/her head down…. So that was my concern wether I am gonna deliver early.. anyway thanks for the link… I referred it and seems like some people have this early,,… :cheers


take care
Eliz

 

@eliz
yes, in germany we have the option of taking 3yrs leave for taking care of the child.For 1yr we get 67% of ur salary and
remaining 2yrs will be nothing.(you get 67% of ur salary on certain terms and condions which I cant explain you here).
I have opted to take 1yr of leave as it will be enough to feed the baby and too much holidays also we become lazy to wrk later.
My actual ML starts from march 6th and as I have 15 days leave for this year, my last date of wrking will be on feb12th.
I understood ur doubt regarding head position and I think ur MIL is correct.hope u have gone thru the link given by sandiya and
got relieved.
Take care.

@sandiya
yeah still not 1 week, 17 days to go for my ML.you need not worry abt your movements now itself.gyneac will advice us when to start the count of the movements.better ask ur gyneac also and dont be too tensed.Even I feel one day very much and other day very less.

@hasya
nice u r going to yoga classes and take care while doing.

myupdates
i am doing good and as of now no worries.Did anyone of u start with child birth classes.I may start next month once i start with my ML.

take care ladies.:thumbsup
