Re: Katie
The dr advised me to stop working early because I was in so much pain. I was put on bedrest (20 min up, then 20 min down, off and on). Plus I was working as a YMCA ChildWatch teacher.
Isaac was born at 41 weeks and 1 day, weighing in at 6lbs 13.5oz and 20.5in. So the low weight factor was part of that birth. At 36, weeks he was only 4lbs and 3oz by u/s. He grew on my right side. I think by going on bedrest helped him bake longer and grow more.
Carson was born at 39 weeks and 4days, weighing in at 7lbs 13oz and 20in. Normal size. He grew on my left side.
I never got any periods but I did spot at 5/6weeks for Isaac (implantation).
With Carson, I spotted at 8 weeks (implantation), then again at 24 weeks, and again at 30 weeks but was caused by an irritable uterus.
I had fast labors too. Isaac was 5 hours and Carson was 2.5 hours. I dialated well too for each appt (starting at 37 weeks). I got up to 4cm with Isaac before I went into labor (but 6cm at hospital) and 5cm for Carson (but 6-7cm at hospital).
