Heh, it's possible that I'm nesting, but it's probably not a result of me being pregnant. DH agreed with me when I claimed that I'd always be like this if I suddenly got a 10 month stay-at-home vacation, pregnant or not. Hopefully he's more on the appreciative side of having a clean house and food on the table rather than thinking that I'm annoying and losing my mind.
What is the purpose of the raspberry leaf tea and all that other stuff, Jude? Hmm, I'm still pretty sure I haven't felt a single BH yet. I wonder if that's a bad thing. I'll have to ask my midwife today when I see her. What I DO feel is about 3 session a day of kick boxing! I've never gotten a kick that hurts, though... just the spot where Kebab is kicking all the time ends up hurting, but the actual kicks always make me giggle.
Ellie! I hope that what you're feeling and experiencing right now takes the place of all that worry and anxiety you had in the last few weeks and even before that. I'm just so happy for you every time I think that your too-long road finally came to its destination!
Jude, Rozzie and Tildy - enjoy these last few weeks and I know you will have your babies in your arms in no time.
Jude - I drank Raspberry Leaf Tea and did a few others things and Anna was still 11 days late. I would do it all again though as next time I am going to avoid induction if possible as I am super sensitive to the drip.
Hi Ladies,
I just got back from the high risk OB. Our little man is on the big side 71st percentile. I guess he is about 2.2 pounds now. It is still so difficult to understand/believe that he is growing so well.
I had my GD test yesterday because I have been feeling a little sick. My doctor said that diabetes wouldn't make me sick but who knows.
Ellie, I would love to see some of your first pictures. Do you have any posted anywhere?
I'm a stranger in these parts too, but do check in on your lovely ladies.......
Laney - it's amazing after all you have been through to now be (finally!!!) getting good news, I'm so happy your little boy is thriving!!
Jude - How are you??? Couple of weeks tops, look forward to coming to visit you and meeting Daniel!!!! Make sure you let me know!!!! Hope you are keeping well.
Hi Jo - how are you, you have a tough first anniversary coming up, it's never easy. I just had Luc's 2nd birthday, and tbh, it just sucked without him here. I hope things are going okay for you.
Remy is such a dumpling. She now goes to swimming lessons, and loves it, doesn't mind going underwater. She's adorable, I should update my ticker photo!! I just CAN'T make up my mind whether to have just one more????????????? I'm so full on busy with 3 kids already, and don't want to be greedy - but there's a big age gap between my first two and Remy, so she is kind of an only child iykwim....... any advice ladies??????????
I have popped in because I recently found out that I'm pregnant again and have found your stories to be quite calming on the nerves. It's nice see so many lengthy pregnancies - it makes me feel better.
I've lost two babies, both girls. One at 14 weeks (button)and one at 23 weeks (Grace Catherine). One was due to malformation which resulted in poor heart function and finally miscarriage and the other was due to an incompetent cervix (Grace was perfectly healthy - its such a wrong scenario).
6 months later I'm finally pregnant again but have found that I'm not allowing myself to accept this pregnancy. I am overwhelmed with happiness inside and feel so so blessed but I'm still in denial that this could really happen for me. I am almost pre-empting another disappointment.
Any thoughts? I would love to hear about how you all felt when you finally found out your were pregnant again.
Lee I have your number programmed into my mobile ph now. Had to get one of Gregs friends to do it coz i am useless with the mobile ph.
Had my OB appt today and have put the sumamry up on my pregnancy blog (link should be in my siggy) but in short at 32 wks daniel was in the 90% and measured 3 weeks ahead and has now dropped to the 15% and is 2 weeks behind. he has hardly grown at all since 32 wks. OB will not talk induction but with my othe pgs at this stage he also said no to induction but come 38 wks he changes his mind and out the baby comes. Doppler flow on the cord was great and plenty of fluid for now so I have no idea why Daniel has slowed gorwing but it has happened at this stage with every pg I have had.
Lee go for another. We wanted two close together like Tash and Nic are (13mths apart) but ended up with a 4.5yr gap this time round!
Welcome Joselyn. I knew another girl named Josie who lost a little girl named Grace at the same stage to incompetent cervix but she has since had another baby. Will you Drs be putting in a cervical stitch?
I am off to bed after a long day.
hugs to all our pg mummies and new mummies
Jude
