oh murph! i was lookign at the gorgeous baby but THAT thai lunch!!! looks soooo good lol. and the beer ... are you taunting me?? lol.
jazzy is just gorgeous. It's so nice to see some fnq scenery in the background of the pics.
lilmiss- CONGRATULATIONS!!! a boy!! so lovely, any name ideas (don't feel pressure to share if you don't wish). I"m so glad it wasn't an early arrival cos i was thinking "gee that time went quickly''. lol ox
kyrawolfe - fingers crossed for the house darling!
hi high pants!!
krikkit - can't help you there darl. but i do get very sharp and painful jabs, have nearly the whole time as bub grows. not sure if that's what you are talking bout.
anyhoo, had a little meltdown today at a poor rental maintenance call centre lady today. I broke down and cried on the phone cos the loo broke lol. poor lady (who was being a complete cow up til then mind you, nearly fell over herself to help after that). In the end the loo wasn't broken, it was a quick fix and I felt like a complete idiot afterwards. Unfortnautely DH called just after the phone call iwth the lady, and i was bawling my eyes out... so then i made him worried And even worse, when he called back a few hours later, I cried again! poor darling man. just hormones, heat, stress of the past 7 weeks and i forgot to get something for dinner... then the loo breaks on friday arvo! straw, camel, you know.
hi everyone please excuse the typing im on my phone Well.... My beautiful boys were born on wednesday morning..... Jack william (2.8kg) and samuel isaac (2kg) were born via emerg c sec at 0120 and 0123 25th nov (wed am) after an 11hr failed induction! We are still in hosp few issues with temperature control, weight loss, slow feeding etc but the boys r with me im loving being a mum it is the most amazing thing ever i love them and the kisses and cuddles r priceless! Thankyou to everyone 4 all the support will come back when i get a chance to post more - smithy would u mind letting the twin forum know - ta! Lots of love to all x
Krikkit- I had sharp pains near where I think my ovaries are for most of my early pregnancy. I went to the doc about it because I was convinced it was something wrong like the placenta bursting or something. Since it was a pain I was also familiar with before I used to get a period I was also worried it meant 'all over red rover'. The doctor thought it was stretching but I remember also that my FS had said that I might feel twinges and pains in my ovaries because of the combination of the IVF treatment, my PCOS and the ovarian drilling I had had a few months before. So perhaps your pain is related to the previous ops??
Murph - Jaz sounds gorgeous. I am going to do that face thing too as it sounds great. I have actually made a cloth mobile that I was worried might only be suitable for girls as it is stuffed babushka dolls in various bright colours. However they have lovely faces on them so there is nothing wrong with a little boy looking at and interacting with faces is there!! In fact perhaps more little boys need those sort of toys early in their development!! You just often feel that you should only buy or get car, plane and truck themed things for little boys!!! I am against gender stereotyping babies but society gets to you!!!
I hope all this early intervention means you get to hear Jaz express herself for longer and pretty quickly again if she does stop. I am guessing there are facial interaction exercises you could do with her to help her be able to form the sounds even if she cannot hear them. I also guess the experts would know all about that!
Bella- Congratulations!!! Looking forward to seeing pics!!! I hope the 11 hour failed induction wasn't too awful
Londonmiss - Marks and Spencers was one of the BIG things I missed about the UK. Especially the food hall! We just drove down the M6 from Wigan today and we ignored several Services until we got to an M&S one for a ploughmans deep fill sandwich and their smoothies. yum!
Now the questions!
a) if you had MS, when did it stop? I never threw up (just felt like it alot!!!) but had lots of dry retching at bad smells and things like seeing a stray hair in food! It was usually an all day feeling of nausea. I think it stopped around 14 weeks.
b) when did you get big enough that you couldn't lie on your belly anymore? cannot remember exactly but I think it was before 20 weeks. I desperately miss belly sleeping!!!
c) when were you big enough that random people could tell? about 13 weeks. I had a pcos belly before and it bloated up with the IVF.
d) when were you big enough that close friends could tell? about 10 weeks. Same with the pcos belly and they knew about the IVF so it was a logical conclusion for them(well Thank God it was this time...I had spent about 7 years being asked when I was due by people in the street because of my random little PCOS belly before which was heartbreaking enough and would have been devastating to have to deal with after a failed attempt)
e) Did any of you find out the gender and regret it, or not find it out and regret it? There was no way I wasn't finding out!! 7 years waiting for this little person...I am not waiting any longer to find out anything about him!!!! No regrets.
f) Should I really be drinking prune juice? Never been constipated in my life and it sounds pretty horrid!!! I love prune juice!!! I haven't really experienced constipation in this pregnancy but had before which I guess is a bit strange. You might be lucky and miss out on it too! Plenty of fruit will help if not. I eat tons of dried apricots when I can.
Grub - I hear you about the rental lady crying incident. I burst into tears at a traffic warden when he gave me an unfair ticket (my back wheels were just off my Dad's driveway and on the path and my car had broken down and I was unable to move it and was just waiting for the mechanic!!!). Unfortunately those barstewards have hearts of stone and he didn't care!!! Anyway DH is home soon to deal with all these hassles and nasty people before they get to you!
CONGRATULATIONS HUNNY
wow what a great job you have done bella and im so happy for you hun .i hope the boys are going well today and so are you wow im in shock lol youve had your twins lol.woohoo
Hello Every one -=- I fineally have some persies to post and can stop being all about me me me whineing
First of all
Bella -=- Hello and Congrats on your twin boys!! Jack and samuel are such nice names too ..good choice! Cant wait to see some wednesday morning miracle's piccys How have you been feeling? It sounds like you had quite a rough ride, but I hope all those cuddles and kisses your talking about have put that all at the back of your mind! How lovely hun! Puts a picture in my mind of my past (DS) and my future jelly bean <3 Cant wait! Congrats again!
Grub -=- I had a little giggle at your toilet scenario (sorry ) I really do understand where you are comeing from tho! These hormones can just drive us crazy cant they! I myself can get stressed over the same silly things.. I dont know if everyones picked up on my inscessive whineing about finding a house.. But ive broken down many times over that even tho its completely selfish because we arnt getting kicked out and will always have a roof over our heads! But sometimes the simplest things like a broken toilet, or one of my favourites, opening the fridge and knocking some sort of wet food face down all over your foot can set off a Shakespeare worthy tear show!! So I can definately simpathise! Dont worry, Im sure Your DH can figure out that your just feeling a little fed up lately, and hopefully wil bring you home some snuggles to help you feel Better xx
BOC -=- dont even get me started on phone companies.. or gas companies... or any of those categories you truely need for everyday life. Had to smile at the gun comment tho! Would have loved to see the look on there faces as they fineally pulled the finger out and got it fixed up for you ... HEHE good one ya sweety!
Krikkit -=- I myself was lucky enough to fall pregnant just before we were ready to start investing in finding what was wrong.. so I cant really help you there... But I do know two things.. Both surgery and pregnancy can cause pain and discomfort in that particular area, So Im guessing its probably a mixture of the two.. Dont quote me on it, but try not to stress out too much ok .. If you are really worried you should mention it to you midwife or OB.. hope I could help even a little, even though I know you probably already had what I just said in mind
Sonyalouise -=- HEY THERE! And congrats on the BFP.. Yes I do have some news for you.. Me and DH have had two MC's before we fell pregnant to this one.. Both times yes it did start with slight spotting, but rest assured each time within hours of that it was bright red heavy bleeding This time around at about 5 and a half weeks I once again started geting the heavy period cramping and freaked out (as you do) When I went to check myself in the womens toilets, I broke down then and there the moment I saw blood.. But it was alot more like what your discribing, and after 2 weeks of hospital visits, we were told its a very common and normal thing to happen, called Implantation bleeding.. Where the egg has burrowed into the wall of your uterus, and sheds a little of the lineing. So relax Hun xox I know its really scary but unless you have severe cramping and bleeding, I wouldnt stress about it too much.. But of course if your worryed by all means get it checked out.. But I hope this has helped you to take a breath and feel a little better about the whole thing.. Gotta love pregnancy, Full of Horryfyingly scary surprises and worrys
AFM - As it turns out there are No pets allowed in the house I was talking about yesterday.. No one seems to want my furbaby in there yard! So we're back to square one again.. But im trying to no let it get me down. And instead I scrubbed the house im in today to try to feel a little better about being here (incase we really are stuck here for a long time) and decided to ask DH to take down all the stuff we've got packed to the garage so if it comes to it i can set up the nursery here (hopefuly not, a few months yet but just to be safe)
DS is being beautifull today.. He greeted me in my room this morning with a cuddle and a kiss and a "luss you mummy" And Ive just felt like gold ever since! Hope everyone is doing well! Will pop back on soon! xox Ky
Bella: CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! Welcome to your two beautiful little men! Can't wait to see photos! Will add them on to the list and post it in the new thread shortly!
SonyaLouise: Welcome! this is a true little miracle and wishing you a H & H 9 months. Hmmm your blood wouldn't be a little bit of leftover implantation bleeding would it? If you don't mind me asking what colour is it? Pinkish red or brownish?
Hiya HighPants! Hey is there a problem with Piczo? I've tried a few times lately to stalk you again but it keeps coming up saying the link is broken. BTW love the ticker, got a bit of catching up do with Coops though
Grub: Go the meltdowns! I say let em happen! It's the only time in our lives we're allowed to behave irrationally so why not. My DH doesn't get too worried though, he just does what's probably the best thing for us and goes and sits down on the lounge and watches a movie and avoids eye contact as much as possible... probably safer that way or I'd start on him too LOL
Sorry about my half hearted post yesty ladies, while I was writing I suddenly started feeling really sick, light headed, headachy and nauseous. I don't know if it was the heat or what. I went to get into the pool to cool down but couldn't stand it for some reason so I just went and laid down for an hour and drank another couple of litres of water (and ended up peeing all night but hey). Feeling a lot better today.
Had a little disappointment this morning. Tonight was supposed to be my step-gdaughter's dancing concert. Been looking forward to it all year, and been excited for weeks. But I got a phone call this morning to say her little brother has just come out with chicken pox (3rd time in 2 years! AND he's been vaccinated too!) and the other 2 kids might be carrying it so we've decided not to go just to be safe. I'm gutted. We were the only other family members going too I'm really disappointed. She will be really upset if she finds out too so as much as I hate lying to her, her Mum has decided to tell her we were there but just had to leave early and she'll give us the DVD to watch before we see them next. Bummer hey!
Anyway must go and pack, we're still heading to Sydney today as it's my birthday tomorrow and my cousins are coming over to my parents' place for a BBQ. I'm just looking forward to getting to sleep in air cond tonight LOL

CONGRATULATIONS BELLA on the arrival of your boys!! i love your names too take care of you!!!
krikkit - i just remembered that i did get nasty pains in my right side, it was from my right ovary being stimulated with the IVF cycle. it hung around for ages (about 20 or so weeks). the ultrasound lady checked it out for me and it was ust so big from ivf and the baby pressing on it... not sure if that helps.
kyrawolfe - i can imagine how stressful it is for you too love. hang n there, it'll all work out. and i love what your little boy said! oooh, i can't wait for my little man lol. they just melt your heart hey!
sonyalouise - WELCOME love. what a rollercoaster you've been on! can't help you with the bleeding darling but hope it all works out for you. oxoxox
poppyfairy - you made me hungry!!! lol. now have to go hunting for food!
downside of being home alone, is not being able to send DH out for food.
anyhoo, rang DH last night before bed. he still loves me and said he understands. he sent me a love email this morning too... so that made me feel better.
And even worse, when he called back a few hours later, I cried again! poor darling man. just hormones, heat, stress of the past 7 weeks and i forgot to get something for dinner... then the loo breaks on friday arvo! straw, camel, you know.
CONGRATULATIONS HUNNY
