Sorry I have not been in here for so long.....these days I don't get too much opportunity to jump online!
Katiegirl, congrats on the birth of Xavier and Klee on the birth of Kristian! Well done girls!
Laney, so glad your scan went well, woo hoo for another lil man! So very happy things are going well for you hun.
Starbright, thinking of you this week hun. GL with the birth of your bubbie! And I hope it won't be the 18th....big hugs hun.
Betterflyforever, congrats on your pg hun! I hope that you have a boring, trouble free and smooth pg!
Dory, hope all is well at your end lovely!
Hello to Ellie, Jlk, mummyof4 and anyone else I missed.
Life is very busy for me ATM, my little guy is being pretty unsettled lately, don't know what's going on. I have had a tickle in my throat for ages and he has been waking up with a stuffy nose during the night so maybe he has a cold. Poor little bugger.
sorry I have been MIA- I have honestly been pretty scared and keeping my mind off of the pregnancy (hmm when I am not nauseous and sleeping) has beena key for success for me, so I have been keeping away from a lot
Congrats to Klee on Kristian.
Also hooray Laney for a successful scan and a little boy!
Mo4- I hope the anxiety has let up a little. How are you doing?
Butterflyforever- Congrats on your BFP and welcome to the thread! Those hcg numbers look great. A lot of us in here are seeing high risk doctors- I love mine. Best of luck for a H&H pregnancy. Keep us updated on teh spotting. With my first pregnancy I spotted for 9 weeks (subchorionic hematoma) and then it resolved on its own, so things can be good.
Starbright- I keep waiting for your announcement too! Keep us updated.
Dory- How are you doing? Do you have a big bump yet? How did the tooth extraction go?
Charlie B- How are you? haven't heard from you in awhile.
Hello to anyone I missed!
AFM- trucking along. Hard to believe I am 10 weeks! I really focus on day to day. I have my 12 week scan on the 28th- which seems forever away, but I am kind of excited for it. Doctor is telling me to enjoy my pregnancy if I can, and I am trying.....I am still on the fence on the doppler. I keep going back and forth. I think I am just going to wait it out until I have weekly apts.....if I can maker it another 3 weeks.
hey guys!
so sorry again about the lack of personals... i will get my stuff together soon lol
I wsent to the dr yesterday just for a normal check up and he has a little portable scanny thingo now so he had a bit of a look and bub was kicking away like you wouldnt believe!
i am starting to relax a little now but i know that i will be a stress head again in 2 weeks... but i am trying very hard for little sweet pea to be calm and confident. I t is all starting to get a bit real now so that is great
starting to feel little movements now and i cant wait for the massive kicks!
today we are cleaning out our spare room ( will be baby room soon!!!!) we still have a long way to go but DH is on his last lot of holidays beofre bub is born so we decided it would be a good time to do it!
anyway that is it from me! I have a scan in 3 weeks... hopefully everything is just as good And little bubba lets us see their bits lol
I just wanted to say a quick hello - I have been MIA too. Combination of being busy ( well busy for me), coming down with a cold ( tired) and feeling like this is all just too hard and there is just too long to go ( overhwhelmed and frustrated). Thankfully I am over my "hump", getting over my cold, and looking forward to a rest. I look like kung fu panda today - really really dark rings under my eyes. I never got them until last year.... strange how this journey can change you.
It's been so nice to visit and hear all the good news.
Laney - AWESOME!!! I am soo soo happy for youm your DH, Grayson, your new bundle of joy and your angels. Glad you can feel some movements.
M04 - awesome for you to feel some little movements and to see bubs on u/s squirming about. Don't feel pressure to get your stuff together - this journey is hard enough without putting pressure on yourself uneccessarily. When you get on here is just fine.
Cmegelles - it's amazing how time flies and at the same time stands still! 10 weeks is awesome. It won't be that long and it will be the 28th!
Butterfly - how are you doing? Keeping those fears and anxieties to a manageable level?
Klee - it's been so good to hear from you.... when I finish this post I am going to read your ba....I am excited with anticipation. But knowing the end result is Kristian, makes it just so much better. Hope you are all faring well.
JLK - you've been quiet - all ok?
Charli - Know that I am thinking of you and sending you my love.
Beata - I am such a dunce.... serves me right for stalking so many threads because then i forget from time to time which thread people are in. I was asking after you in another thread. I think I need to do myself a list. It seems to be happening more often. Pregnesia? I am glad to hear that things really are going well. A bit up and down, and it would be much easier if Cameron was settled. Hoping its just a cold. Must be awful to have one at his age... take care of yourselves.
Starbright - oh oh I am sooooooooooo excited. I hope not the 18th too, just because as you said, it would be too much.
AFM - well I had the first of 2 steroid injections today to expedite baby's lung development, so that bubs has better prospects, if bubs decides to make an early entrance. It hurt more than I thought and it felt oddly rude exposing my butt/hips/thigh to the Ob instead of my front! LOL, there are always surprises in this journey. Next one tomorrow. I know it's no where near a guarantee, to either get to this gestation or to have the injections, but at least I am doing everything I can to give bubs the best chance, and that is all I can do.
Both of the fur baby's teeth extractions went well. #2 was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, so thankgod I took him in sooner than I'd expected for his teeth. He's is now on twice daily tablets ( now that's a lot of fun, but at least he doesn't scratch or bite) until 3rd July when he has another check up just to make sure the hyperthyroidism ( over active thyroid) is not masking any other diseases, and then no tablets for 2 weeks, and then he goes in for his treatment. He will be gone 3 weeks for his treatment! Argh! But I have been preparing myself for the separation and he'll be in good hands. After the first week DH and I can visit him. If I wasn't pregnant and he was an outdoor cat, he could come home after the first week, but it's just safer to board him for the extra 2 weeks. It's a bit of a race against time, but he will be home again about 7 weeks before bubs is due, so here's hoping all goes to plan. Stay snuggly little chicken!
JLK, I really hope that everything is okay. Please let us know what is going on. I hope that being in hospital being very closely watched gives you a tiny bit of comfort.
dory, How are you feeling after your steroid injections? I had a little laugh at you feeling strange exposing your back end to your doctor I have pretty much lost all of my modesty through my journey
mo4, great to read that your scan and appt went well. Calm and confident sounds like a nice place to be.
cmeglles, 10 weeks! I have a scan on the 28th as well. I will have my fingers crossed for both of us.
beata, sorry your little guy has been so unsettled lately. It does get easier! Thanks for stopping in to check on us.
Starbright, any more of those pains? It is the end of the week and she isn't here yet....
Still no sign of DD arriving!! I got my csection date- not until 6th of july, i will basically be 39 weeks 3days, they are bloody lucky i have chilled out after having DS.. i was begging them to have him out at 36 weeks, no way would i have accepted a date that late. My specialist from Corryong recommended 38 weeks, but the arragont d ickwad who didnt even look at my file has said they like to do them at 39 weeks and thats when they will do it. I am quietly confident she will make her own plans despite this loser- (which now i am only 10 mins from the hospital i am ok with- JUST) except that i just have to hope that there is a surgery free, a dr on call or already at the hospital, oh i have to fast for 12 hours before i know i am going into labour.. hmmm what else?????
I had some constant period pain last night- my mum is arriving on wednesday so i am keeping my legs crossed til then- its hard- i need to be right onto labour so i can get to the hospital in time, but not too paranoid that i am running there every five minutes!! I just have to trust it will all work out the way it is meant to be.... and if that means i dont get into the cesection in time and she comes out my who haa, as long as she is alive and well then i am ok with that!!!! At the moment i am just not even thinking anything different!!!
Hope all is well with everyone!! Sorry no real personals today- just hopping on quickly then i have some house work to get to!! (nesting much???? YEP)
Take care everyone hugs belly rubs and baby tickles!!!
xoxoxoxoxoxoxo
hey all, I am going ok, been in hospital on bed rest for the last few days and now I have to rest at home too (yeah right). I am finding though I feel a bit uneasy, for the last 3 days I have been able to hear bubs heartbeat at least 3 times a day & now home to no reassurance
I have pretty much lost all of my modesty through my journey
