I have the flu :'( and my little mister has tonsilightus again...
I havnt been sleeping amongst how lousy ive been feeling, my son being sick, the baby kicking, and all the work we still have to do.. and last night DS woke up wimpering with such a hoarse voice and was breathing really shallow, so we got out the after hours night doctor to have a look at him straight away, his whole throat was red roar and the doctor gave us a script straight away and told us the nearsest chemist that opened at 6am.. My poor lil pumpkin
Grub and Lani -=- Congrats again on both of you haveing your healthy happy bubs! Grub.. Is the babys name asthon or ashton? Still cant believe you are all done and dusted with ur pregnancies! hope to hear from you soon <3
I have intermittant net connection so I havent been on much but today I have been going to the neighbours to check on Boc. I am so worried about her. Swollen legs and feet as well as dizzy spells are definately Pre-Eclampsia symptoms. My friend had her baby at 22 weeks because of the exact same thing
Welcome to all the new gals, so wonderful to see so many of us here.
Congradulations to all our new mama's!!! I get so emotional when I read of all our new arrivals. I blame it on the preggo hormones. I am even crying at the huggies ads on tv!
CONGRATULATIONS Grub on the arrival of ASHTON JAMES!!! So happy for you that he arrived naturally And how WONDERFUL that you'll be home for Christmas too! Look forward to reading your birth story. Take care and enjoy your precious little bundle of joy. xx
I'm here girls, thank you for thinking of me today. Unfortunately no real answers to the problem. The doc basically said because everything was ok at my appt last week, the swelling has eased and this being the first time it's happened, it may be a one-off so I've been told to take it easy and get lots of rest. But if it happens again to call them straight away. So I've been laying around this afternoon. Still feeling a little off and my back is killing from laying around but I'm hanging out to 9:30pm for a hot shower, some panadol & bed for the night! If I still feel bad tomorrow I'll call again.
Just want to say thank you again for thinking of me! You lovely ladies give me warm fuzzies. I hope everyone else is well. Chat to you all soon. Goodnight!
Hi all
BOC glad things are ok.
I had my first day as a stay at home mum ( not really I have never worked on mondays but it is the first day of the holidays) and I am ready to go back to work. DS was a pain and I was in pain so bad combination. Oh the joys of 3 year olds. Physio tomorrow. DH is coming to learn how to tape up my butt as my brace is just not enough on its own anymore. This is about as close to anything getting physical that he is going to get. Wednesday is my first DS free day. I have left him in daycare until school starts again around when the baby will be born. So I am off to get my hair done and then to watch new moon will the car gets new tires. Yeah for me so looking forward to it.
Hey BOC - just make sure you keep a close eye on everything. My sister had severe pre-eclampsia at 24 weeks and I was diagnosed with it right at the very end of my pregnancy - didn't find out until I was in labour.
The only thing that I had that was probably a sign was severe swelling of my feet and hands that came and went. OB said that my blood pressure was fine. However, my sister has since told me that your blood pressure can be swinging around the place, so in my case I may have had blood pressure that was going up and down - it just didn't happen to be up when it was being measured by the OB.
I don't want to scare you or anything, I just want to advise of my experience - I really wouldn't want anyone else to go through it as you feel so sick. So please make sure you call your OB if you have any symptoms return. It is far better if you get diagnosed with it as soon as possible as they can just manage your blood pressure and keep a closer eye on you.
Good luck - hopefully it is just pregnancy odema and nothing else!
BOC -=- Glad everything is ok.. What a scare.. I really hope that doesnt happen again and maybe it was just a one off bout of your body having had enough
Saph -=- Oh dont you love being at home all day with toddlers!
