Sorry i have been MIA lately - been having crazy time at work, first tri tiredness extreme but i have been lurking and keeping up with everyones progress.
Murph - congrats on such wonderful news xx
BG - yay! Congratulations can't wait to hear more.
To everyone else sorry i have no time for personnals but wanted to jump in and say i'm still here and should be posting a bit more now that life seems to be setteling - well not for long though hehe!
AFM - Ofiicialy 12wk 4days! - had my NT scan today - it was fantastic seeing how much they have grown and moving around so much! Apparently all measurements were "perfect" official results in 24-48hrs. Very relieved - can't wait just to get on with organising and buying things!!
it is sooooo cold this morning even on the gold coast!!! hope everyone is doing ok and i want to see some more bubs born! where are they?
i have my diabetes bloodtests this week, i hope i dont have it but then again i will be induced at 38 weeks if i do which at least is a date to count down to, thats the silver lining im thinking about if it is worse case scenario.
not much else to report, bubs doesnt stop wriggling and im sick of feeling busting and then there is only a dribble TMI! i just want to pee normally! oh and BP is still in the 150's over 90's so still being monitered.
i have written up our birth story - link is in my sig for those that are interested in reading! it's loooong though, so make sure you have a cuppa (or a cold drink - so cuppa doesn't go cold) and a snack...
just a question to anyone who might know, i had a high level of ketones in my urine i know it often means nothing, like because i hadnt eaten for a few hours, but has anyone else had this? im worried i have GD, as i still vomit, and very fatigued and urinate sooooo much more than i think is normal, so will be finiding out in the upcoming weeks also my boy is very big for his gestational age which is also an indictor.
Just a quick note as I'm at work. Hope everyone is well!
Me=him=bub I am unsure about GD but I did read somewhere that eating small regular healthy meals helps reduce high keytone levels.
Just a quick update for me: I have been worried about various twinges and pains but mostly about a sharp occasional pain in my left side. I also went from having humongous sore breasts to somewhat reduced breast symptoms. I did a lot of reading about this and was convinced I was having an ectopic pregnancy. However I had another blood test today, and my levels have gone from approx 300 at 4 weeks to 3000 at 5 weeks. So I have been reassured that there is no issue and no need for me to have an early ultrasound. So....any tips on how not to be obsessive an anxious after a much longed for finally achieved BFP?
For those of you in Melbourne, hope your staying warm! I got spoilt on the weekend on the Gold Coast wearing just a t-shirt only to come back to this cold weather.....brrrrr!
Murph - I am so happy for you Thats such wonderful news. Its been a very stressful time for you and you are a brave woman. Hopefully now you can sit back, relax and enjoy your pregnancy. Congrats on having a girl too!
Bella - glad all went well with your scan. It is amazing to see how much the baby has grown and to see it actually LOOKING like a baby!
Neptune - what a HOOT about yoga! That is something Id be likely to do, lol Dont know about the whole "branch" part!!!!
JenC - sorry to hear your in so much pain. It is easy for the OB to say stop working isnt it?!?!?! Money doesnt grow on trees and not many of us can afford to live long term on one wage. We dont even have a mortgage as yet and wonder how we are going to cope. Take care.
Kelly - Im still envious! Hope your enjoying your time at home
BG - hope all is well and nice to hear from you

AFM, went to my OB yesterday for my monthly check-up. Heard the babies heartbeat and it made a THUD as it moved, was very exciting as I cant feel it move as yet! My diabetes test was negative which is a relief. Will go for another one later on in my pg. He got a letter from my gyno and his recommendation is for me to have an elective c/s because of the extensive surgery I had last year so my OB has "tentatively" booked me into his diary for 4 November!!!! As it gets closer, he may push it to the following week depending on how Im going. I thought Id have to have a c/s which wont bother me as Ive already been cut open twice now so whats an extra scar!!!! At least the c/s will be a smaller cut. Otherwise, am moving house on Saturday, have lots of packing to do between now and then. Not looking forward to it!
Take care all,
Tania
