The baby turned so her movements were all interior, and in doing so, rolled over my bladder or something, which then caused a bunch of pee to leak down my leg. I went to R&D and felt really stupid. Also, this time I've noticed that when the baby changes positions, I have contractions. BH I'm sure, but uncomfortable.</p>

<p>Lousli, I had terrible heartburn with #1, but then with #2, managed it by not eating so late and just being hungry. This time, I am taking pepcid almost every day, and when it stops working (when I get reflux a few hours after taking a pepcid) I use acifex (RX). It's crazy! I hate heartburn. Hope you can manage yours. It's funny, but when I'm taking the acifex, I eat so much more because I'm so *hungry*, whereas usually I'm just nauseous from all the heartburn and acid stomach.</p>

<p>Katroshka, your shower sounds so lovely. I've been loving the weather too. We've really enjoyed our local parks and beach this week.</p>

<p>We've gotten tons of baby handmedowns. I have a feeling we're somewhat of a charity case at church - people who've never even spoken with us are suddenly asking us if we want the baby stuff from their garage. It makes me really uncomfortable. Although we're really lucky to have all this stuff (we gave away all our baby stuff, thinking we were done).</p>

<p>I'm really excited about having a VBAC. The baby has YET to be head down for more than a day at a time. I'm kind of worried about how much she flips around in there. I'm afraid she's going to be all tangled up in the chord because she's up, she's down, she's breech . . . I've been taking my kids to the park everyday - they ride their scooters and I try to keep up with them. I underestimated the distance of our walk yesterday on the boardwalk at the beach, and after practically running to keep up with my kids on their scooters on a really busy day at the beach, I had to then drive in traffic to pick up DH at work. By the time we got there, I was in tears - my belly really hurts. The baby is breech right now, and she does some kind of stretch on my hip bones that's HORRIBLE. It wasn't contractions, just plain pain. It's really hard for me to drive stick anymore - I feel like my fat belly has no place to go in the car. I think I've reached the point where my spirit is willing but my flesh is weak, and I just can't seem to do everything I want to and/or need to, and it's frustrating. When I have to carry DS (3) kicking and screaming somewhere (to pick up his sister from school, etc.), my hips and tailbone complain about it all night. And I'm not even 33 weeks yet.</p>

<p>I suppose it's really common at this point to start believing the dates are wrong? We have no idea when we conceived this baby, but the first u/s gave us a due date of 3/16, and after that, they were 3/13. But I'm fat and I have a tilted uterus, so maybe they're wrong? In early January, the doctor said the baby was already over 4 pounds. I'm not diabetic and I've gained 10-12 pounds total so far, so I can't figure out why she'd be so big. But it would be a sweet relief to be full-term sooner rather than later!</p>

I'm really starting to hope this baby comes at 38 weeks (not earlier because my sister is in Hairspray at her high school the weekend before I hit 38 weeks). I'm just so ready to be done, my knees have been killing my the last three weeks, on top of my back and hips which have been killing me for a while. </p>
