Klee - oh sweetie. You can do this! You are in my thoughts and prayers. One day at a time ......
I know what you mean about "normalest". I think if you want it to be a word, it can be!
I have to say I am very excited for you for LATER this week. You don't have to give us a date......some of us ( ie me) can do with learning some patience..... Good luck with the induction... I can't wait wait to hear from you "soon enough". And bugger about the foot and mouth.
Big hugs my love.
Starbright - I have to say the one thing I am not looking forward to is reflux! ..... I hope it passes soon enough.... the way you described baby moving and interacting with you just sounds so awesome. What have you decided with car seats? I find it simply bewildering.
klee, I can't wait to read your news. Not long to wait! I hope DS is feeling better by the time his little brother comes home. I hope your induction moves along faster for you this time around.
SB, Sounds like thigs are starting to happen for you too! If I remember your DS came a bit earlier than expected too. I hope you can find something to help with your reflux, I never did. I also get headaches while pregnant. I never get them when not pregnant. I have them now for a week on and off.
It does help a lot to know that you and klee didn't feel very much early. I try to stay awake for a little while after I get into bed....I keep hoping that i just might feel something.
dory, How are you doing? I hope your furbaby did okay.
AFM, Grayson's party went well. It was nice to celebrate with lots of family and friends. It was a bit too much for Grayson. He wanted to play with the big kids but kept getting hurt. He also started to bite the big kids to get attention Long day with no naps but fun.
My Mom and Gram were visiting for a few days. They just left and the house feels empty already. I hate living 5 hours away from family. They really helped me stay busy for the past few days. No real time to worry about my upcoming ultrasound.
Hi to everyone that I missed, I will try to catch up better later
Laney... Try laying on your side- that was where i felt the first movements- i found laying down putting Shane to bed i would feel movements- and i was always on my side- not sure if it was a co-incidence or not- but give it a go!
Yep- i am getting some good pains and heavy feelings- a little bit different to with Shane- with him it was all in the back- but this time they are all around the belly. Nothing to get to excited about- this went on for a few weeks with Shane- but nice to know things are starting! And yes- i tend to go early (well with Zahra my early labour was induced by an abruption- but i still reckon i went into labour!) and yeah Shane came two and a half weeks early. My sister is the opposite- she has gone over due every time with her kids and had to be induced twice! My body just goes- is it time- ok- get'em out!!
CONGRATULATIONS to Klee, DH, Phoebe + Joey on the safe arrival of
Baby Kristian 6 and a half pounds- he arrived after a seven hour labour during the night!
Klee will be in in the next few days with more details, like a middle name when they chose one!! And i am not sure when Jo will be meeting his brother due to being sick. So nice to have some good news to spread in here!
Welcome to kristian and congratulations to klee and family.....
Later this week... I wasn't expecting any news til the weekend.
Good work Klee, hope you are recovering well and just enjoying this wonderous time.
CONGRATULATIONS KLEE!!! Welcome to the world Kristian.
Just decided to introduce myself:
got a +ve on 30th May, EDD: 8th Feb.
I have been ttc for 11 months, did Acu/TCM, naturopath tonic and other vits, so will be glad to stop all that.
Lost my daughter back in Feb 2009 at 41 weeks, so this is a high risk preg for me, will be delivering def by 37 weeks by c-section this time.
It was a big shock to me this month, I had no idea, was shaking so badly when a second line came up on the test. I was so laid back in the first half of the cycle, decided not to chart and kept forgetting what cycle day I was on. I only charted in the second half of the cycle, cos my temps went all weird on me, I was worried that the herbal tonic the Naturopath gave me had thrown out my hormones completely.
Didn't really have any major symptoms in the tww, no real cramps for the first 10 days and no nausea. Had terrible leg and foot cramps though, and sensitive to smells (nearly threw up when I passed the butchers and when my little one had been for a poo and hadn't flushed the loo, sorry ).
Had a bit of spotting for a few days, so worried a little.
Had hcg results over the last few days, that seem quite high:
Butterflyforever - welcome to our glorious thread! And congrats on your BFP and pregnancy - how glorious. I hope that despite being high risk your pregnancy goes relatively smoothly. I look forward to sharing part of this intrepid journey of pregnancy after loss with you. It's ok too for the crazy lady to come out in here.... when you need to. I am sorry about the loss of your precious Butterfly. Belly rubs to you.
Otherwise its quiet in here - so that must mean we are all busy with our own lives. And that is good. Have a good weekend all.
Thinking of you Klee and Kristian.... with much love.
ButterflyForever, I am so sorry that you had to go through such a devistating loss. Welcome to the thread and congratulations on your pregnancy. I look forward to getting to know you. It is going to be a very emotional journey. I hope you have excellent doctors that give you all the support you need.
I usually have a little spotting right after I get a bfp. Your hcg levels look great!
3 more days until my scan....i am starting to go crazy!!! Good thing we have lots to do this weekend! I have never wanted a weekend to fly by as badly as this one.
Hi ladies, just popping in to say hi, and thanks for all your congratulatory wishes, just feeling very grateful to have little Kristian Reuben here. I've just posted a ba with all the details. Thanks for getting me through this pg, I couldn't have done it without you all, I'll be staying in here for a while to see you girls through, so if any of you need anything at all please just ask.
All looked good today!!! He was measuring a few days ahead I thought that I was going to have a panic attack walking into the ultrasound room and I couldn't hold back the tears. Not getting much sleep last night didn't help. I go back in 2 weeks and I have to see my MFM doctor in 3 weeks. We are not out of the woods yet but we're off to a good start.
I think that I have been feeling a few movements...nothing strong enough to make me say that it is bub for sure. I had a nice glass of ice cold water and felt something.
YaY!! Thats great news laney!!! Oh did i miss something.. do we know its a "he????" Or did you only just find out???
Well i dont think it will be long til you hear an announcement from me... i got some full on contractions happening for about two hours last night- i was "this" close to waking up DH and then they stopped and i fell asleep, this morning i have had a few- but not as full on as last night. I dont think it will happen today- but i am thinking this week.. its the 18th on friday ( i lost both my angels on the 18th) so i am hoping it doesnt happen on that day coz that will freak me out!!!
Well DS is ready to play so i better be off!! Bye for now!!
SB, the ultrasound tech told me at 13 weeks that it was most likely a boy. We found out today that it was for sure a boy. I told DH that he better be ready to add one more after this because I still want another little girl.
This Week!!!! You still need to cook that bub for a few more days at least. Do you have an appt. this week to check if you are dilated?
