Er yeah a week. Im trying to forget. Im still freakin out. And to top it off Ive had 3 emails in the last 2wks from people interested in utilising me as a student doula for their births. So now Im trying to decide whether I should just attempt to do it and if I cant make it then I cant make it sort of thing; or just to put it aside (and still do my theory). Only problem is the course wont stay active for the 2yrs it takes to finish my degree and its still something Id like to have under my belt/be able to do should my midwifery study not happen as fast as Id like it.

Well - at 5pm this afternoon the gods smiled on us and we got the results. I am pleased, excited and sooooooooooo relieved they have all come back fine. While these are only the preliminary results it is wonderful news and I am a very relieved mummy to be with a headache to prove it ;)
And the next piece of news - it's a boy :bluecheer: I am so happy that the gender is really not that important but still exciting anyway :D Roll on July - I'm ready :lol:
I want to say an enormous thank you to my cheer squad from far and wide. It has been such an important part of this journey to know you are there and supporting me (and us) through this. I can't imagine doing this alone and without you to hold my hand. Thank you from the bottom of my heart - I am eternally grateful :grouphug:
Janie :dance: Fabulous news!!!
-
:leap: Woohooo!!!!! :leap:
Michelle, I am soooooo relieved and happy for you!!!!!
-
Michelle that is the BEST news!!!!!!!!!!, i'm happy & relieved for you & your family :hug:
-
:dance: YAY Michelle, that is awesome news, the prelim results are a pretty good indicator in my book. Im so happy and relieved for you. Another little boy, how wonderful, cant believe dh was right again with his gender biased nicknames!!
I think the universe is slowely starting to smile down on this thread....
AFM - little bit concerned, ive had period type pain all day, its a dull ache but sometimes gets quite strong. Not a typical BH though, no tightening associated with the pain. Seeing my OB tomorrow but thought id get some ideas from you girls in the mean time.

YAY Michelle - I can't even describe how happy and releived I am for you!!! Such brilliant news... and another little man... so exciting!!!! I hope you manage to have a really, really, really good sleep tonight.. god knows you deserve it (and much more)!!! So happy.
Janie - Woo Hoo, I'm so happy and releived for you too.. hope bubs stays in there for quite a bit longer.
Lisa - Wish I could help (but I've got no idea.. sorry). Hoping all is ok and I'm glad you're seeing your ob tomorrow.
Well, I'm not having a very good night, am really tired after the trip away and DH is at Uni tonight, then away for the next three nights, so just feeling a bit down. And to make it worse, I had a little fall down the stairs after putting DS to bed. So of course I just sat there crying and DS came running out. I'm ok just a few little grazes on my arms and a few sore joints!! Thankfully it wasn't too bad but then I had to get DS back to bed AGAIN. Not happy but all sorted now. Just hope it hasn't affected my chance of a BFP later this month!!!!

Congratulations again my friend! :happyforyou: I had a cry too! This is the BEST news I have heard for a long time! :leap:
Janie I am so so glad that your little one is being good... Let's all hope and pray that we can keep her/him on the inside for a while yet!
Bonham I hope your results are pleasing ones my love -please let us know...
Lisa: I had those type of sensations with all of my pregnancies in the last trimester - I think it's things stretching & growing. If you can't feel your belly tighten - it's likely that's what it is. Let us know what your Dr says tomorrow. Big hugs :hug:

YES AWESOME NEWS MICHELLE! :hug: Rock on BabyBoy!

Woohoo Michelle, what fantastic news!!! So glad to hear it sweetie, and congrats on another boy!
-
Thanks girls :)
Deb - there is def no tightening, but i do have some feeling of pressure in the bum :o hopefully ob gives me all clear tomorrow.
Michelle - your news has definatley, 100% brightened this thread :D
-
Not to detract from Michele fabulous news but Im a proud mummy and want to share......
Why? Because Stellan has decided today is a good day to take his first steps..........and keep on walkin! He's taken a few steps here and there but nothing solid; and also been standing himself up. In the last 30min he's just stood himself up and off he trots; then falls over, claps and laughs then does it all again. So between that, learning to clap and learning to wave its been a big week for the Stellmeister.
Sad for me though because it means he's not my baby anymore and that much closer to being a toddler :(
Guess my booty will lose its jiggle now I'll be chasing 3 errant boys around the place :rofl:
-
Never a detraction Freya ;) And can you get the Stellmeister to give my DD some hints :rolleyes: Lazy little monkey happily stands there for ages but point blank refuses to take a step :lol:
I am so happy to see the excitement of this thread - it is bubbling from me at the moment but I feel good things surrounding us. Can't wipe the smile from my face :D
-
Michelle, grinning from ear to ear right now. :D So very pleased that things look good. On the walking front - Sam's been off and running since Christmas. Some time with other mobile little people might help - that's what got Sam going. Then again, you have another mobile little person - surprising that hasn't been enough for her!
Well, Sam appears to be a lot better. DH has reported that his appetite has returned and he ate breakfast and lunch... then I get home from work and he refuses to eat dinner! DH is sick as well, though... and I'm just hoping and praying that I can avoid getting sick (will be a small miracle if I stay well), especially this early in the school year. Still living in arthritis hell and basically just miserable. But taking a day off this early would not be good - my classes have not yet been beaten into submission and there's a few that require a lot of beating before I can relax. Not enjoying it at the moment, but hoping things will improve as time goes on.

Michelle WOOHOO on the fabulous results..Thanks soooo much for the text earlier and like I mentioned I can't believe how clever your man is for being able to pick the gender yet again ;)
I'm soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo very happy for you all :dance:
Oh and as for Lily..don't worry that she's not off and running yet...Sage didn't take off until he was 14 or 15 months and now there is absolutely no stopping him.He didn't do the few steps here and few steps there thing either. He walked around the coffee table no more than 3 times and then he was off all by himself..as in walking a fair distance at a time :0 I'm sure Lily will start when she is good and ready ;)
Freya OMG at Stellan walking..what a clever little boy he is and he'll always be your baby boy ;)
Lisa I hope everything is ok with you. I'm no help on the pain side of things cos I have absolutely no experience with that.
Happy birthday for tomorrow too :)
Janie WOOHOO on all being ok today with bub. I was soooo worried about you last night :hug:
Willow PLEASE don't be sorry for the conversation your friends were having. I was ok and honestly expect people to discuss their "experiences" at "events like that. The Priest on the other hand..well lets say hmmmm :shakehead:
I hope you are feeling much better soon too babe :hug:
Bun I'm sorry to hear you still aren't feeling great. Do you have to see your Ob again sometime soon?
Michelle Once again WOOHOO!!!!
-
Ah Michelle enjoy her not walking. Tell her to just wait til after youve had BabyBoy so your not heavily preg chasing two kids (its sucks lol)
All my boys have been early walkers. Trust me to luck out with the ones who want the option of running away sooner rather than later :rolleyes: Just last night Ryan was over for dinner and getting them out of the bath; I went outside to put the rubbish out on the kerb and next thing I see RIPLEY hooning down the street naked as the day he was born, little bum jiggling as he ran :rofl: Took me about 3m to catch up and grab him; then try to stifle the laughter while I chewed him out. Guess we'll be hearing about naked nuddy runs alot as he gets older ;)

Michelle - I knew when I logged on that there would be good news. I am so so happy for you. Yey a baby boy (I am jealous)..Don't get me wrong I love my girls with all my heart but it does skip a beat with all the boys around atm..
Janie - Yey for you too. Keep growing little one
Freya - WTG Stellan.
BW - I am glad Sam is getting better and I hope you improve soon. :hug:
Lisa - I used to get incredible pressure in the behind and down my legs in the last weeks of pregnancy..Try and put you feet up. All the best tomorrow.
Hi to all, another rough day here. Oh well just go with the flow I suppose.
