Thanks Rozzie, I am pretty nervous but excited all at once. I am going through the "do I argue and get a stitch put in JIC or do I trust my Ob and just be monitored closely" arguement in my head atm. My Ob doesn't believe I have an IC and that our probs started with contractions but who know? All I know is I never want to walk that road again. I am seeing a specialist for the NT scan in 3 weeks so will see what they think.
Nae congratulations hun on your pregnancy. How frequently can you ask for scans to check the cervix length?
My aunt is down South Gippsland way, she is in Paynesville. We have been there twice now. Long drive from Melbourne but even longer when you do the reverse trip leaving in the middle of the night to be on the ferry back to Tasmania at 7am for the day crossing.
Rozzie wow lucky girl.. I am lucky to get 2 hrs sleep in one go, more like an hour and then it takes about an hour or over for a whole feed process .. it takes Daniel a while to find the right latch coz he changes his mind each feed how he wants to be held.
Tildy wow still waiting!!!! Has your OB talked about induction at all???
Jo how are you faring?
Theresa you would also be at the ahcy stage.
Lee hopefully your next BFP won't be too far away Did you get my email with the pics? If you want to share them here on the gallery feel free.. I cna't even find the gallery anymore so add pics of Daniel. There are some on my link to my blog though.
Tildy, Still no news? How long are they going to let you go before they give you some help going into labor?
Everything is still moving along with me and bub. I had a growth scan last week and he is still growing well. I start my nst's on Monday. I am going to be very busy with doctor appts for the next couple of months. I have 2 nst's, a biophysical profile, and a regular OB visit every week. They also toss in a visit to the high risk OB and a growth scan every 2 weeks. I don't mind at all, I would go in everyday if I could.
Tildy any news yet ????
I noticed you are in Sweden, I lurve Sweden its my favourite place in the world second only to my hone that is I went there in 2002 to a Swing Dancing Camp held in Herrang (can't work out how to do the accent things) we spent a week in Stockholm first then 4 weeks at dance camp. I just found the 22 hour daylight thing challenging I guess winter would be worse hey.
AngelicDragon - I haven't been to Paynesville yet but have heard its nice!! I think the plan will be weekly checks of the cervix from 16 weeks but I will remind Ob at my next appointemt that he said from 14 weeks last year.
Laney - I am glad things are still travelling nicely for you.
Zm - how are you going?
Just wondering, How many of you had a preterm bub by C-Sec?
I had a thought the other day that I was not fully pregnant with super huge bump when I had my C-sec I was only 24 weeks into the pregnancy. Will that make a difference to the uterine rupture risk?
It sounds silly but my rationing of it all is that I was smaller than a full term mum therefore the scars will have to stretch further when I reach full term? does that make sense?
I cannot believe how many things are worrying me, silly little things, all the what if's.
I guess everything is becoming harder as we get closer to dates when everything started last year - like the 4th May when I was admitted into hospital and first told I was expecting to give birth within 48 hours. the 25th May when Nikita was born and the 2nd June when my little girl couldn't fight anymore and we switched off her life support.
I am begining to feel very isolated from friends who cannot relate though they are supportive I just cannot talk to them. BB is the only place I have in the entire world where I feel comfortable but I hate feeling like a burden to people IYKWIM.
ahhh anyway I am just letting off some steam - pay it no mind I will be better after a rest.
Just lurking, but wanted to let you know NaeNae that I had my DS2 at 41+2 (and 4.48 kilos) after having an emergency c/s with DS1 at 34w, he was 1.9 kilos. Nobody mentioned anything about my scar at all.
In fact, my second c/s scar (larger baby) was smaller than my first...
Thought I better say hi and stalk Tildy...hope Kebab doesn't keep you waiting too much longer! Hopefully he/she is already here in your arms
Nae - I think Rozzie had a similar thing to you with the early c/s which is why she had another c/s this time around. I think there were some slightly increased risks with trying a VBAC due to where her scar was located but I am sure she can expand on that for you! Or maybe look at the last thread because I am sure she went into some detail about it for her particular situation. Horrible isn't it, all these extra things your mind comes up with to worry you - like you need another thing to worry about!
Laney - GREAT news that bub is still growing so well It is so great to see your ticker up above the 31 week mark now; keep up the good work!
Jude - I just looked at your pics of Daniel. That one of you and he meeting for the first time is just gorgeous.
Well I get my stitch removed tomorrow...feeling a bit nervous but can't wait for it to be out! My ob will examine me after removal to see if conditions look any good for induction but I have a feeling I will be coming home to wait it out. So, there is a SLIGHT possibility we will meet our little girl tomorrow...but most probably not. I'll keep you girls posted
