MHB - I'm hoping to keep the little boys in here for longer than that!
Saw my ob today, and learned that I am now in here until the boys are delivered. argh! I suppose I knew it was a possibility, I just didn't expect it.
oh well. it's for the very best. I need daily monitoring, plus i am on nifedipine every 4 hours. apparently if I go 2 days with no contractions I could be given a 'leave pass' to go home or out for a few hours.
well, the waiting begins!!! imagine if I held out until 01 Oct when c-section is booked - that's a loooong time in here.
very nice hospy though - lovely midwives. so it's not too bad.
miss my DH at night though
Oh jen I can only imagine what it must be like stuck in hossie looking at the same four walls it would drive me insane. But take some advice from a mum already rest up because when they are here there will be no rest for the wicked.
MHB So hear you about being uncomfortable but how can it be already I am only 13 weeks.
AFM went to OB today. All is looking ok at the moment. About resricted growth issue, I will be having an extra scan at 34 weeks to assess growth and the plan is for induction at 37/38 weeks. She is not worried about a small baby she is actually more worried about a baby that is to big and having the tramtic birth that we had with Campbell. She said that when the baby is to big its shoulders get stuck and that then causes breathing problems. Campbell did not breath and ended up in the intensive care unit for 3 days because he got so stuck. He was the biggest baby in there and got a twin bed all to himself. LOL
Being kicked off the computer so hope everyone is doing well and will check in later.
Jen I know it is not much help - but at least you can feel some confidence at being monitored and have answers to questions at hand. Definately suggest getting some good books!
Sorry no personals - there are so many people on here, if I don't look every day it is very hard to catch up -
AFM - all well here so far, just tired still and sick as a dog - I am really hoping the MS goes in a few weeks. It is so speradic - can wake up fine some mornings, but go terribly downhill by mid morning, or can wake up feeling like crap and that continues - but find the worse time is from about 4.30 onwards till bed - I may as well set up camp in our bathroom!
It is just hard to function at work when all I want to do is crawl up on my office floor. But have to continue to be perky as know one knows - very hard.
Im right there with you girl. I am in a bad way today. Headache that wont quit, puking - the works. Body still thinks it carrying twins Just realised that we are babybuddies. I am 8w 5 days today also
FrostiesM. Omg. I cried when I read your post. I am so so so sorry. I have felt your pain more times than I care to think about and I know nothing anyone can say will take away the pain, time is the only thing that eases it - (but even then you carry it, tucked away deep in your heart) We are all here with you, holding your hand. Please know we are here if you need to vent, cry, scream, anything that you want to express. Huge hugs darling.
I also want to say thank you so much to everyone for your beautiful and kind words. Means so much to me. (damn it, tearing up again) I cant really talk about this IRL because everyone is so overjoyed that Lil Peanut #1 is going good and they dont seem to understand that looking at Lil Peanut #2 all teeny and not living is very hard. I guess the longer my pregnancy goes on the better I will feel about it all. I am very worried that Peanut #1 will just "vanish" like #2 did...
anyways, enough about me. I hope everyone is feeling ok, especially our gals on bedrest and Jenc77 in hospital. I hope you have foxtel and unlimited interwebz!
Big hugs everyone,
Sammie

Sammyjam - what date are you due - I was 21 March - but after scan it is now 27 March - I guess have to wait until next scan at 12 weeks to definately know.
I won't make you tear up again. But it is good that your #1 is looking good.
I am tearing up alot atm, so dont worry about it Apparently the 9th week is when the CRAZY behaviour starts
I was due on the 22/3 (according to IVF dates) but after my scan the 27/3. I am having another scan next week due to the vanishing twin so I am hoping to find out for certain then also.
Baby Dream Time glad NT scan was good that must be a load off. No pool here but lots of AC! and summer clothes are much prettier than winter ones.
Janie thanks for the pep talk, I need to shut my ears more.
Mahli hehehe love the comment re DH's stubborness. I hope my baby doesn't get that from me. how long do they take? 20 minutes with a full bladder ahhhhhhhhhhhh
Frusty's Mum I am so sorry look after yourself.
Smithy love the belly
Saph i know how you feel just feel the emotions I think. I have had the same thing happen with three of my friends. Sux but now that I"m pg I can let it go. But still wish it was easier for us.
MissMagpie thank you and I was a bit of a hint dropper over the past year. I'm a stirer and I like to watch DF squirm but I stopped when we got pg. and well I guess he felt like he could do it without thinking it was 'my idea' I hope you get one soon
MHB thanks for the warning of uncomfort to come but it's worth it. Goodluck for nedxt 3.5 weeks.
Jenc Wow a date is set. Bet that's nice. I'd miss DF too
Becc hope you feel better soon
SamieJam I'm 17 weeks and I'm still an emotional mess. Tears are so good for me, just cleans out the bad and makes the happy seam so much more happy. Funny but true, Hope you're having a good day today.
ATM OB went well 19wk scan booked in for 31st DF can't make it but my mum is comming which will be cool. DF is coming on the 2nd to OB so he's sort of forgiven. Appointments aren't work friendly are they. I am lucky that I'm the boss and can make it up early/late. My bp was 125/70 so relieved and the heart flutters are normal. Oh and baby looked great. Had a bit of a sook.
This weekend is demoliton and clean up time, DF and DSS are doing all the work while I got to work. I know who's having the easier day but that means the baby room is edging ever closer. So exciting.
Just realised that we are babybuddies. I am 8w 5 days today also
