Hello all, KellyD, just a quick one for you. I'm hearing you sista! Ahh, I have been crook, crook, crook! What I missed in MS I am making up for in horrid heartburn / indigestion. I feel like I am full of bile. and I know about the sleeping sitting up. I did it all night last night, and on and off for the past week. I wake all night with what feels like bile creeping up my oesophagus and through the day am bringing up spewy yuck (hot swallows that burn my throat, so foul). Saw my GP last week and it will only get worse but it is good for the baby. I'm asking everyone I know for every wives tale and googling when I can sit still for five minutes. It's been getting progressively worse and now the day we are going camping for the rest of the week, I just feel wasted. Nothing is really working except for freezing cold milk sometimes.
I will catch up with you all when I get back but good luck with all your scans and milestones for this week.
Sarah, good luck telling your boss. Hope it's a great outcome.
I'm going camping straight from after uni today to try our new roof top tent...taking the dogs and Andy and we're outta here....Yahooooooo!!!! Seeya soon,
Hello lovely pregnant ladies. I have been MIA with lots of dramas, so I just wanted to pop in and let you know that i have been thinking about you all but not able to get in here very often.
I have been flat out with weddings, my 40th this past weekend, and then an admission to the delivery suite yesterday with minor bleeding. Everything is fine, but I have some sort of polyp on my cervix which was causing the bleeding, and they want to look at that further - so i will have a colposcopy and biopsy soon. Little baby is fine, and the bonus is i got to see him on ultrsound!
Also, my back pain got resolved - i found out that my pelvis was tilted and the phsyio manipulated it back into place adn Voila! No pain. Got to b happy about that.
omg today was sooo bad its my 2nd day on my placement and i went to watch a procedure done where they insert a catheter through the femoral artery up to the heart to take a look, all was fine then bubs kicked me so hard in the guts i had to run holding vomit in my hands to the toilet while trying not to contaminate all the sterile fields as it was in theatre! i also wet myself with the force of vomiting and had to throw my undies out haha! sooo embarrasing! one guy said to me " i dont think this is the career for you" i didnt say anything but i dont think anyone thinks im pregnant unless i tell them, i kinda wish i had a big bump but he has never truely "popped" ive never had anyone ask me when im due oh well! i cant wait to have my baby!!!
Hi Neptune: So much to deal with and the delivery suite trip must have been really scary as well. I hope all goes well with your procedure.
MHB: OMG, how embarrassing for you and to be sick whilst in theatre must have been scary. Your little boy certainly is a trouble maker if you ask me.
AFM: Well what a couple of days I have had. Indegestion 2 nights ago and last night baby decided it would be huge fun to spend the whole night pressing down on my cervix. It was so painful and no matter what way I turned or moved she wouldn't budge. I'm sure that she has already flipped over and is head down already. I thought about calling my OB to find out if I should do anything, but decided to have any easy day today and monitor the discomfort as I have my appt with him tomorrow at 9.45am and hopefully will get checked out to make sure that my cervix hasn't started to dilate (too early). The only positive is that all this trouble she is causing me doesn't seem to be effecting her, I think she is a little sadistic as when I am in discomfort and pain she seems to enjoy kicking me like mad. Today I have been getting those huge kicks that can be seen through my belly and she hasn't stopped moving today. Have any of our other girls had cervical pain especially moving into the 3rd Trimester?? How am I going to cope with such discomfort for another 12 weeks?? DH & I are certain that she will decide to come early, be that her choice or the OB making the decision but we just think she will become so big for me to carry.
Thanks for the warm welcome. It's great to find a bunch of people who's been through the hoops to finally become somebody's mum. I've been cat's mum for 4 years and frosty's mum since the misc in March. Now finally we're having a viable pregnancy.
I get really constipated with Elevit, so I'm taking Megafol on the alternate day, that seems to help, and anything with tomatoes at dinner time sure guarantees a night of heartburn. Grrr.....
Ange hope the camping went well, enjoy the alone time
Neptune. Glad you're back ache is better that must be a load off.
MHB wow under 50 congrats
KellyD goodluck for 9.45 tomorrow hope bubs lays off the sore spots
Frosty's mum tomatos are a no no for me too.
Well I did It I told my boss and she was happy gave me a hug and everything. Then it came to the "how's this going to work" chat and she said that my job was secure and we'd try our best to make sure I get as many entitlements as possible. I said I want 10 weeks off and she said "as much as you need" so i'm in a much happier place now. thank goodness it's done!
Tell the big boss Thursday, my boss wanted to but said I could then they'd speak and get back to me on the plan. Fingerscrossed.
Have sick child at home at the moment so will be quick as he is crying. At the moment I have extremely sore feet. I am what you call hypomobile which means my joints move further than they should. With the pregnancy hormone relaxin helping out I am in extreme pain, just waiting for the first trimester to be over and hopefully it will get a bit better.
Quick question started reducing progesterone support today is there anything I should look out for. Didn't get any information from OB they forgot to tell me when to stop support I had to ring midwife and ask.
