cmeglles, good luck with your appt. Glad you don't have too much m/s. I have had it bad twice and hardly anything twice.
Thanks for asking about me. I don't have any appts until the 14th I could have if I really needed it but I have a home doppler. I can hear bubs heartbeat anytime I need to (which is a lot the past week or so). The worry is really starting to get to me now. The scan on the 14th is a big one for me.
SB, thanks hun. It was a very difficult day for me. I tried to stay really really busy all day. It was such a bad idea. I was so tired out by the end of the day and Grayson was soooo over tired that we both had a bit of a melt down. We both feel a bit better now after a good sleep. I think the worry about this pregnancy is getting bad. If I listen with the doppler and down hear little kicks as well as the heart beat I worry....pretty much every little thing makes me worry right now.
How are you doing? Are you all settled in your new house?
dory, How did your appt. go? I hope the extra visit helped to calm your nerves.
Hi to everyone else. I hope you are all doing well.
katiegirl - congrats on the birth of xavier, such wonderful news, nathaniel would be so proud of his mum, hugs hon
laney - hugs and thoughts to you for shelby's anniversary. its so difficult to know what to do to celebrate our angels, if you do too much it gets on top of you and if you do too little it does too, thinking you haven't done enough to remember them, wish there was some perfect medium to remember our precious angels, but so glad a good sleep was the answer for you both. and wow on grayson turning 1 next week, what a milestone.
dory - your cat story was hilarious, sounds like you've got a couple of trouble makers on your hands, what better than to have a good laugh though, nice work furbabies
cmeggles - good luck with your appointment today, i hope you get to discuss everything you need to.
sb - hope your settling in well and keeping yourself busy, miss our chats, will have to do something about that
AFM - had a scan yesterday and now bubs is apparently a big baby pmsl, can't win, last time he was small, now big, oh well guess all that good eating has helped him and me he's not overly huge but should be about the same size as ds was when he was born. I'll get my date next wednesday, most likely for the following week, but going to try and keep it hush hush as I don't like many people knowing as it puts an expectation in their mind. as far as most of my friends are concerned, i still have a month to go, so shhhh everyone lol. apart from that i have a cold and am on antibiotics so trying to rest up as much as i can. be back in a couple of days, love to you beautiful girls
Cmeggles - I just wanted to reply to your query about a cerclage. I wrote a really long response and lost it. Blah. I would recommend you do it. For me, there was no conclusive evidence to suggest the cervix was the issue and I got a second opinion about it. On balance I decided to do it, despite the risks, and it made a big difference to how I felt emotionally and physically. I didn't expect to feel that way. I don't feel as vulnernable as I did before having it. Once its in you can't feel it. There is a forum site for cerclage. I will post it separately as well as some more info. I just don't have the will to write it all out again just now.
How did your appointment go?
AFM - I have been MIA caring for my fur baby. His procedure went really well and he recovered really well too. I was an anxious mess and have been fussing over him these past few days - just making sure he didn't have an adverse reaction to the anaesthetic. He is back to his spunky bold self and I am feeling more robust again too. As a result however I need to catch up. Will write some more when I have caught up.
well i had a scan yesterday and bub is doing wonderful! measuring a week ahead of the date they gave me ( that was a week behind the date i told them fancy that hey lol) but the little sweet pea was kicking around like crazy and is doing really well..
i keep telling myself that chances of the samething happening again are like getting hit by lightning twice but it is still really hard as i am sure all of you are well aware! Just have to keep my fingers crossed and take one day at a time!
anyway i hope you lovely ladies are all doing well!!!

Today I'm officially the most pregnant I have ever been, I'm still scared and worried, and this has provided no sense of relief but I thought I would share it with you anyway.
Hey all,
sorry for being so slack, ido come in and read all your posts though, everything is going well so far, but i am getting more nervous the closer i get
Kam -congrats on being this pregnant! What a HUGE milestone!
Mo4- I am glad that your scan went well. So funny that you were right on with your dates originally. I hope you can keep those nerves in check.....Lightning never strikes twice in the same place, but I totally know what you mean!
Dory- thanks for the advice, I definitely am leaning towards the cerclage....we are currently taking a 'watchful waiting' approach which could change anytime I feel like I need to. I am so glad your furbaby is up and back to normal. One of my puppies had a tumor removed on her ear this winter and it was terrible. They really are so much part of the family.
Klee- best of luck with your date this week! How exciting!Glad the bub is measuring about perfect now. Let us know when your date is!
Laney- the 14th is slowly approaching. I am counting down for you. It is nice to hear your thoughts about the doppler. We are thinking of getting one, but I keep weighing the pros and cons.....plus it looks like I am going to be in the doctors office all the time, so maybe I could get it doen a bunch there? I dunno. Lots of decisions to make. How are you doing with the waiting?
AFM- Apt went GREAT! I have such confidence in my MFM docs. I had no exam done or anything, but we have a plan to manage this pregnancy and that is HUGE for me. Starting at 12 weeks they will be monitoring my cervical length and if it shortens at all or gets the least bit under 3cm then I will have a cerclage done. Also between 16-20 weeks I will be getting weekly shots of progesterone to prevent pre-term birth.....So we are kinda trying a variety of things since my previous loss was such a mystery. If I can prevent infection somehow that will get at all of my worries! Anyways we made a schedule for a scan and an exam on the 9th for dating (and piece of mind for me)
I could have if I really needed it but I have a home doppler. I can hear bubs heartbeat anytime I need to (which is a lot the past week or so). The worry is really starting to get to me now. The scan on the 14th is a big one for me.
