My Pregnancy
53My Pregnancy
I'm a 43 year old woman expecting my 4th child in Feb 2010. I'm 26 weeks along. I have had alot of support from my boyfriend and my 14 yr old daughter. I'm one of the lucky ones, I can say I have not had any morning sickness,but I have had some problems. I had 2 utis' (urinary tract infections). I've also had an Uri ?(upper respiratory infection). I also have placenta previa. I also have asthma which acts up on me time to time. I'm getting better now which is good. My stomach is getting bigger and bigger. The baby is very active she kicks,punches and moves around alot. I recently had some bad cramping and just found out I'm 2 centimeters dilated and lost my mucus plug. I haven't lost my water yet, which is a good thing. I really don't want to spend Halloween in the hospital and with tomorrow being my b-day I would rather be home. My breasts are sore and tender because my milk is coming in. We have some baby clothes that I bought plus my friends have given me. I've got a playpen ,bouncy seat and a carrier. I have a baby monitor and bottle too. So I guess if she decides to come out this week I'll be all set for when she comes home. She will be in the hospital for a while but it's for her safety. I go to the doctors once a month. We have heard her heartbeat which is very strong and we have pics of her feet,face,and hands which is so awesome. Seeing it's a girl we are naming her Kristina Lynn.
