Go with your gut... always
Hi, girls! I want to say thanks to all of the previous posters who've ever offered me advice on any of these boards, and whom have come to the rescue on many occasions!
I read the pregnancy books and boards, and I've always seen comments about followiing your gut instincts. I've never realized how true that is until I got here at 33W 4D.
If you feel "off" and something isn't quite right, call your OB. If it doesn't look right, smell right, or feel right, ask and call your OB. I'm not claiming to be an expert, but Sunday I was just so wonky and off, I said to DH "something's different". I can't put my finger on it, but between the immense pelvic pressure, tightness and exhaustion, I just felt wierd. I mean, I hadn't even had a backache or headache this entire pregnancy. I picked up the phone and alled my OB. If I hadn't, my story may have been vastly different this weekend.
Just offering my advice and thanks as a way of paying mine back- and forward, too! good luck to everyone on all of your journeys!

Re: Go with your gut... always
It just goes back to ALWAYS having to be your own advocate... regardless of the situation. Besides, being your own advocate is what got you here in the first place!
Glad you're doing better!
