Kim, thank you so much. That means so much to me.Oh BAL I was hoping you'd come in too. Feel honoured to share a pregnancy with you. You and your little guys changed my life. Even if you'll never really know.
Maybe you should take it easy.. I have only been on bed rest since Monday and I'm already bored lol. My back hurts from laying down all the time. I know my back and neck will suffer terribly. The most important thing is Button though..
Sarah - I borrowed a doppler off a friend. It's great.I was concerned at 1st it could cause undue anxiety if I can't find the HB straight away, but even when I didn't I could always hear something, like the baby moving. It's very rare I have just heard silence, but the HB is quite often easy to find. Often though I don't get time to listen long because bub takes off again,. Also I find it interesting that you said the progesterone may be causing braxton hicks, as the reason I'm on them is because they were supposed to "calm the uterus"
DD - I hope your little girl doesn'tt require surgery, but I get what you mean, if they don't operate how you would be a bit scared.. I think I have told you before I have ASD, VSD, pulmonary stenosis, transposition of the great vessels, hypoplastic right ventricle & dextracardia. I was a blue baby, but they didn't operate on me til I was 6, which was a minor op, I just had a blalock shunt. Then at 8 I had open heart surgery and have been fine ever since. Is it expected that DD2 will require more surgery?
Skybie - I am so happy for you being pregnant again. It is nice to be in denial and pretend it's a normal pregnancy. You know, a pregnancy where you get pregnant, function normally and take a baby home at the end.. I really hope you do have a smooth pregnancy and there are no heart issues with this bub. I was told I have about 5% chance of passing on a CHC but so far I have been lucky that way. twins hearts were fine and this bubs heart looks good too.
Well today I am off to the GP to get a med cert for the job I just started last week lol.. I wish Monday would hurry up, so I can see my OB (Dr P.ortman) She is awesome, and I know even if I am put on bed rest she will put my mind at ease a bit. She just has a way about her. Apart from that I am just resting today. The best thing about bed rest is being able to lay down and really concentrate on feeling those beautiful movements. I love this baby so much..
