Pregnancy after Long Term TTC #1 - 2009

[Murph01]

Hey Briggsys Girl,
cool, thanks for making me smile I think I'll put those new fears to rest now. I've been reading around the net but you can be as careful as you want and still not guarantee a smooth ride. I agree with you, I just felt so good to feel normal, which you don't get when you're packed with pessaries half your life.

I'll put myself and the computer to bed now. Thanks again.

Hi girls
Just jumping aboard the new thread too. Have my first OB appt tomorrow, so looking forward to that. Just waiting to get to the 12 week mark to relax... at least somewhat.
Hope you're all well.
Jen

hi girls
I've been following everyone's progress and there have been some great updates in here!!
Just a quickie from me, I've been feeling like there's some movement from bubs over the last week (but couldn't be sure if it was just a gurgly tummy) then last night I'm certain I got confirmation - I had 3 distinct tap-tap-tap in the one spot on my right side. It actually kind of freaked me out, but was also very exciting!
Only 3.5 weeks to go unti l19 week scan - yippee!!!
Hope you're all well.
Mels xx

Hi Girls

Hope everyone is doing well.

TL & Janie: It is so close now, I'm sure you can't wait to meet your little miracles.

AFM: Well this m/s stuff is really getting me down. No vomiting still but suffering from everything else... Severe nausea, dizzyness and fainting, constipation and indigestion at 2am in the morning. Went to my GP today to see if there was anything that I can take to get me through my days at work. My Dr prescribed me 4 weeks off work with lots of rest and taking care of myself. Contacted work (where I have only been for 4 weeks) and they were great and instead of taking 4 weeks off work, I'm taking this week off to try and get some rest and then from next week they are going to let me reduce my hours from 12pm - 8.15pm to 4pm - 8.15pm as I feel worst between 10am and 4pm each day. They are also going to allow me to have rest breaks whenever I need them as well. Hopefully this works out to be a good option for me as even though I will only get paid part time hours, it is better than not getting paid at all.

So plenty of sleep for me this week and hopefully our little bubble starts to play nicely very soon..

you poor thing Kelly,

I had a total of 4 weeks during my first trimester (both sick leave and annual leave). I don't know how I could have gone on at work if I didn't have this.

Mels, isn't it fantastic to feel the baby. I started to feel the baby (maybe the placenta) as early as 14 weeks but it is only in the last month I have been feeling the baby without having to be on my back or pressing my hand on my tummy. I feel her when I wake up and often in the afternoon when I am at my desk at work. My little girl becomes highly agitated when she hears loud music. Even having experienced the kicks for quite sometime now I still smile everytime they occur.

On a different note, I am having trouble finding out what has happened to HM because I can't locate her blog. Could someone fill me in? Thanks.

Belly rubs to all.

Kahlan, here is HM's latest blog entry - unfortunately her little girl has passed away
