Sick - do the 5 Day Pouch Test - the first 2 days consist of liquids and if you are as tight as you feel, then it's a breeze to do it and the added bonus is most people lose 3-6 lbs at the end of the 5 days.

Beth quit picking on Plain long enough to become a member of my mob - then you can pick away all you want. :thumbup:

Plain - U 2!

Is THAT where everybody is??? Good God, people, I need entertainment here! :biggrin: lol

I need to figure Mobsters out. I was busy playing WoW. I'll get on FB soon enough to try to figure out what to do. :smile:

Have you had any steroid shots for lung development??

2 shots were given on 1/2 & 1/3 respectively...

LJM---have they given you an estimate on his size from the Ultrasound?

my ultrasounds are wonky due to previous surgeries and scar tissue... (gall bladder with a 'zipper scar', lap band and TT) so they arent fabulous quality just good enough...

last week his weight was 5lbs 4oz give or take 1/2 pound either way...

The topic of sleep quality in an acute care setting intrests me very much. In fact, it the subject of my research project.

Baby LJM is waaaaaaaay too far along for that. His lungs are already formed, and they'll be put to good use very soon, from the sounds of it........glad I'm done with the crying babies, LOL

as long as i dont have neighbors on either side i sleep VERY well... one neighbor went home and one might be leaving soon. i told my RN if she's still there about midnight i'll go for the Ambien tonight... kinda petrified to take it though - i've never taken it before.. :thumbup:

contractions have continued, but they are still very irregular. doc said this may go on for a week or so, if they become more regular they'll "check my tonsils" (heh) and see how things are progressing...

i guess since this is the first pregnancy i've gotten this far im afraid im going to miss a contraction (or several) :biggrin:

Do like I do.....subsist on optimism and joy. And occasionally, on the flesh of the homeless.

They can be a bit stringy and tough at times.

Booya, Plain!

Don't be petrified of it - it's not like you'll be "drunk" on it and have to drive (serious, not smart ass). You can test it out all while in bed! Then you'll know in the future if you can tolerate it! From what I've heard, it's not unbelievably strong.

Thanks so much; I'll look into it!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
