A very quick hello while I'm expressing and the rest of the house is sleeping! My head space is not great ATM, crazy I know, given that D is home tomorrow! Thank god, I am SO SO sick of that hospital, particularly the nursery. It really is a very lonely place. I'm frustrated with my supply, and annoyed myself for being tired when there's so much to do. Trying to balance it all with some rest though. But all will be well, D will be tucked up in my arms in just over 24 hours!
I ran into my Ob the other day and we were chatting when he remembered that my placental biopsy results had come back the day before. We didn't have a formal chat, he'll fill me in more at my 6 week check. Not that there's much to fill me in on, the biopsy did show something, but it still doesn't give us any answers I don't think. Apparently it appeared like I had suffered from gestational high BP, which I'm taking to mean thinned blood vessels, and/or clots etc. But I've never had high BP ever, my BP is perfect, sometimes on the lower side, but nothing to worry about. So I'm perplexed............any ideas nursey girls?
Janie You and little D have done so so well to be allowed home tomorrow. I bet you are a teeny tiny bit excited about that and to have him home in time for Easter and your Birthday Please hun you need to give yourself a bit of a break. You have been on a very tough journey this past couple of months. I'm sure once D is at home with you and your lovely little family things will become a little less stressful especially as you won't be travelling to and from the hospital for feeds etc. To me you are a legend and you deserve a huge pat on the back babe.
Spring I hope all is well at your place weather wise.
Laney Where are you??? How did you go with your POAS test??? I've been thinking of you.
Not much happening here. Having a day at home trying to feel better with this sickness. I woke up this morning with a huge headache and am wishing that will go away on its own soon. I might have a sleep when DS has his nap this arv and hope I wake up feeling better.
Mako, thank you for asking about me. I am here. I read, just not much to post. So far everything has been going well here. I had blood test and my hcg levels were rising well. I have had no bleeding so far...which is out of the norm for me. Just some little cramps here and there. I started clexane right away and that is going well too. I have my first scan on Friday. I have been having a harder time than I thought I would, just very nervous.
I have my fingers crossed for you that everything is excellent on Tuesday.
Janie, I am very excitied for you. No more trips to the hospital
After Shelby's placenta biopsy they told me the same thing. There was a large dead area from a clot and very small blood vessels. There was no reason for the issues and I was tested for everything. I have low BP and did all during the pregnancy so now I take clexane. Grayson had a 100% normal placenta
Lisa, sounds like things are starting!

That is fantastic news Laney, I'm really happy for you hun . Thank you so much for all your support and information during my dramas, I really appreciate it. That is really interesting, and something for me to think about. My Ob had me on aspirin in the first trimester, because of my history of mc. When we realised that D's growth had slowed right down, my Ob told me to start taking it again. From then on his rate of growth stayed pretty well consistent. I'll defintely chat to my Ob when I see him in a couple of weeks about taking Clexane should a surprise baby ever decide to join us .
Having a third baby is a decision we will now take VERY seriously, and ATM we say that we won't be going there. What if this happened again???? Even earlier???? I keep having flashbacks this week to that awful CTG when he was brachycardic, that terrifying slow beating. I haven't really thought about it until now, I think it was too scary earlier. It just came to me in the car the other day. I feel so so relieved and grateful that my beautiful boy is here safe and sound.
Thats fantastic news Laney. I wish you all the best for a perfect scan on Friday.
Janie I just wanted you to know that alot of people told me I should maybe go on Clexane for this pregnancy (even my GP) but when I asked my Ob and DR S about it they both said not to as it has a higher risk of making me bleed and the Cardiprin(asprin) was better for me. I'm not saying that this is right or wrong as I honestly felt Clexane might have been a better way to go for me but obviously not according to my Drs. Anyway make sure you talk to your Ob and see what he says
Also my placenta with Sage ended up very dried and shriveled up and that apparently happened once I stopped the asprin at 34 weeks.
I'm so excited that D is coming home today and before his original EDD
and to have him home in time for Easter and your Birthday
