Londonmiss, enjoy your mini break and GL with that nighty Kangaroo Is is supposed to be beautiful, lucky you. Any chance you can loose DH's phone while on holiday???
BOC happy 28 weeks and nesting sounds fun. Also welcome to 3rd trimester!
Wantbaby2 so glad you are enjoying your growing bump.
Saph that is a big bub you have there. If it helps you my sister's SIL delivered a 10lber & a 12lber in her 40s all au natural.
Hello everyone else I have missed
AFU we have our 12 week NT scan tomorrow and I can't wait to see Phoenix again . A question did anyone NOT have a scan between 12 & 20 weeks and still cope ok? Something that I am considering but its more likely I will decrease scans from 20weeks on if I decide on going through the birth centre rather than OB.
CONGRATULATIONS POPPYFAIRY!!!
Robin Patrick is a Wonderful name....such class and style!! Oh i love it!
So glad to hear you have your little bundle safely in your arms now.Best of luck.Please post pics when you can.
CONGRATULATIONS POPPY AND DH ON THE SAFE ARRIVL OF ROBIN

so as far as dh and i know all being in my favour charlie is being induced 29th jan woohoo
im so sick of my ticker always being behind too
Poppyfairy congrats on you birth. Boys are very special and love mummy cuddles.
Well off to the ob today, If it looks like this baby is going to be as big as Campbell I am going to ask for a CS. Not for me but for baby. Campbell got very stuck and didnt breath and ended up in ICU because of how big he was I am not going to do that to another child if I can help it. We will see what happens today. Well need to go get ready I am going to the Casino for lunch today with all the girls from work. Yeah a bit of me time.
Hi Dusty,
I only had a very very quick scan at my OBs between 12 and 20 weeks, sort of, ok, there is one, there is the heart beat, there is the other, there is the heart beat, that is all, otherwise it was the official 12 week NT and then the 20 week morphology. I did find it very hard to wait between the official scans, 8 weeks is a long time, and did/do find myself worrying. I am counting down days until my next official next Tue, as am dying to know what size they are and that growth is on track, I guess the worry just doesn't go away. Hope you are keeping well, GL for tomorrow. Make sure you look out for the nubby if you want to try to guess gender
Smithy, OMG, so excited for you too!
Saph, GL with your OB appointment and hope you can book your C section in.
Hi to everyone else, I am tracking along, very excited am 34 weeks today, now I can have the bubs on the Gold Coast and not be shipped up to Brisbane. I guess is just a matter of time for me too, just trying to hang on as long as I can now, I have 36 weeks as a goal in my mind. Still hoping they will flip so I can do a VB, but I have a feeling my OB will be talking C section next week, I will be asking for a date at 38 weeks hoping at least I can go into labour naturally before that, and also give the girls as much time as I can in case they do flip.
poppy fairy -=- BIG CONGRATS HUN ON THE SAFE AND QUICK ARRIVAL OF ROBIN !!!
0 hour labour huh... hmm. what exactly happened there??? cant wait to hear more and see some cluck inducing pics
Dusty -=- Good luck with your 12 week scan tomorow! Hope everything goes well and you get a good look at lil phoenix! I only had the standard 12 week and 19 week scans after I got the all clear from the EPU ( I had a few scans between 5 and 11 weeks to clear for misscarriage as i had a few bleeds..) Dunno If that helps in any way.. Ive always gone through the public system in hospitals so I dont know too much about birthing centres and how they go about it all.. tho they sound good!
Smithy -=- 29th of jan isnt too far away at least! Sounds like ur having a terrible time with all the sickness.... How about I send you some general health vibes along with the labour ones!
saph -=- sounds stressfull hun just do whatever you think is best good to hear your getting a bit of you time today! I had my child free tuesday yesterday and spent it over at my gfs catching up with her and our other two gf's that were heading over too NZ for the next 3 weeks! So we made the most of it those 3 are a crackup when we all get together!
Hey baby dreamtime! Woot for 34 weeks! thats doing realy well for twins! GL for the next few weeks hope everything works out for you!
..trying to get my lil one too nap. It sounds funny that I still try to get him to nap seeing as he's turning 3 next week.. But when I dont he falls asleep at 5 or 6 then skips his dinner and shower to sleep through the night. Its a bit of a struggle seeing as he loves to fight off the drowsy eyes and keep playing, but If I can get him there it will all be worth it!!! Its really hot today and the comp room is the only one with air con.. Ill probably be sneaking in here once he does go to sleep so I can feel a lil less sweat monster myself! Had a wonderfull cuddle from DH today before he left.. Hes being really sweet, after trying and failing to get a cuddle and kiss from our indepandant thinking lil toddler (hehe) he came over to my belly leant down and gave jelly bean a big snuggle and goodbye as well.. and told him/her he was proud of how strong s/hes been and that he cant wait to meet him/her.
CONGRATULATIONS Poppy on the safe arrival of little Robin!
Smithy you poor thing! Hope it's only a short wait for you now.
Sending labour vibes to ellasmum & greenie too.
BDT: you make your 36 weeks and VB!
Saph: good luck with the sizing!
Dusty: I had the 12wk scan, but made it very clear I wasn't interested in taking it further if anything came back. They pretty much knew I was only doing it to see Cookie. But then again I'm going private so I guess as long as I'm paying the $$$ they'll do what I like.
to everyone else!
AFM, having an interesting day. Today is my due date for the angel bub I lost back in my first round. I fully expected to be a wreck today but surprisinigly I'm ok. I guess I've had long enough to prepare for it. We will probably just light some candles and have some quiet time when DH gets home.
Appointment went well yesterday. I think the Ob must have said something to the midwife cause she was ever so nice, even asked how my back was going. A couple of things have come out of the visit, firstly Cookie is definitely breech. No surprise there I have suspected it for a while now and I was a breech myself. So the plan of action is to monitor position at every visit and then at 36 weeks if he/she hasn't turned the call will be made to "exit via the sunroof" (as someone so cleverly put it before). Again, surprising myself, thought I'd be upset at the prospect of a C-sect but am surprisingly chilled. And now just got a call to say my diabetes test has come back high so have to go back for more, this time the full GTT. Ho hum, ahhh the joys!
Had a really amazing moment the other night, had been sneezing all day and suddenly sneezed again, put my hand on my belly and I could feel the head! Clear as anything, the little round hard head-shaped lump in my hand, in the middle just up under my stomack! I almost cried! Those awesome moments are what it's all about! Funny though, I was determined to get DH to feel it too so every time I had to sneeze I would go running to him, grab his hand and put it on my belly then procedd to spray all over him He wasn't impressed! But hey, I said "honey in a few short weeks your gonna have more than my sneezes all over you" lol.
Obviously not meant to be napping today, tried to lay down for a nap 3 times now and every time someone either calls or comes to the door
Hope everyone's coping well in the heat, our Southerly has just come through o thank goodness it's cooling down a little!
Congrats poppy on the safe arrival of Robin. I can't believe that u had what they class as no established labour. Well done. Enjoy spending the time with your little man.
Smithy not long to go now n I hope u feel better soon.
Ella's mum, green & smithy sending lots of labour vibes your ways as u all race to the o
line. Good luck xx
Sorry I have not been on for a while well I have been reading the posts but haven't had the time to respond. I can't believe my little man is already 4wks old the time has flown. He is growing and changing everyday. I am enjoying motherhood even with all the challenges.
Hope everyone is enjoying their pregnancies. to all
Kangaroo Is is supposed to be beautiful, lucky you. Any chance you can loose DH's phone while on holiday???
. A question did anyone NOT have a scan between 12 & 20 weeks and still cope ok? Something that I am considering but its more likely I will decrease scans from 20weeks on if I decide on going through the birth centre rather than OB.
