Oh ladies...I put my mascara on this morning convinced I could have a 'blubber' free day...and your kind words have turned me into a 'panda' with mascara and tears running down my face...I look a sight! Thank you all so much...I wish there was a way to express how much your suppport means to me...just being able to express all my fears out loud and to be heard and understood is such a comfort and blessing...thank you xxx
Good morning my wonderful 'hand holding' support crew...
Feeling really upbeat this morning! Had a big d&m with dh last night...I am so lucky to have him...so after a big blubber about my fears about Monday I went off to have a long hot shower...when I came down stairs there he is...all relaxed out on the lounge reading a Pregnancy Magazine...was so cute...he was concentrating so hard on what he was reading he didn;t even notice I was there. So he has decided that the pram and car seat are really important purchases so he's going to start doing some research...after all is well on Monday of course. What a sweetheart! One day closer...
Ellie - you are doing so well and your fear is totally understandable. Just remember that whatever you are thinking or feeling - we have all done it as well and it is normal! Scans are a double edged sword - they offer us reassurance but are just plain scary.
I almost cried reading about your DH. So sweet. I love hearing of supportive fathers-to-be. I am very lucky to have one of those myselves. And my DH was dying to buy a pram as well and did research on it. Our latest purchase is the Angelcare baby monitor and he has played around with it and worked out all the settings...and tested it on me one afternoon when I was sleeping. He told me that it works. So happy to hear you have good support at home.
Keeping thinking positive thoughts and holding onto your dreams of holding this baby.
Ellie, sorry to hear that you have been through some tough times and you know that my hands are always here for you to hold....waiting is such an agonizing game that we have to play but sounds like all the symptoms are showing the positive signs...4 more sleeps and I wish they will fly by and best of luck for Monday. Is your scan in the morning or afternoon? You 'hand-holding crew' will be here waiting....to celeberate I am sure....
Just wanted to drop in and offer you my stretched out hand to hold.
I will be stalking you and cant wait to hear how things go on Monday. Just remember this is one miracle strong bub who has already proved you can fall pregnant from having sex, and he/she has much more to teach us!
4 sleeps to go! Your DH sounds marvellous!
Also are you going to come join us in the PALTTTC?
Thanks everyone for your support.
Very emotional today...tired...headache...ms has really settled today...but normally gets bad in about an hour so we'll see.
Your kind words and understanding mean so much ...I can't thank you enough xxx
Ooooh you should be just about at the time when the M/S stops!! that's the best... it was such a relief to actually start eating normal foods again and not worry about them coming back up. Lucky you!
Oh Rozzie I hope so! It must be getting close....the mornings are better now but the afternoons...like it just hit about 5 minutes ago...are shocking...my trusty friend the blue bucket has taken pride of place next to me on the lounge lol
The 25th is my DD's 1st birthday, so I know its going to a special day all around Here for you hun, and all these things your feeling are very normal. The all day / arvo sickness and being emotional are both great indicators that your pg hormones are nice and strong and your little miracle is growing beautifully
Lisa that is so amazing...one year old already!I hope you have a wonderful weekend celebrating your beautiful Alexandra's first year...oh...so emotional...why am I crying all the time!?!
Well I made it to Friday...yippee...DH's last day at work before our scan on Monday morning...we are planning a 'lock down' weekend...we take the phone off the hook...mobiles off...and spoil ourselves...that's what got us here in the first place hehehe! So a nice lunch tomorrow at a winery (no tasting for me!)and we'll just take the rest from there...our little celebration that we are currently more pregnant than we have ever been before...I still can't believe it!
Have a wonderful day...and thank you for holding my hand...I feel so safe and supported...we're going to be ok xxx
Threw up with so much force last night I hurt my back...I hope bub is ok...feel much better this morning. Seems that the ms is afternoon sickness now...hope it disappears soon.
