Well i am awaiting the call. My SIL was induced on Sunday and after what seems like cr@p service from a public hospital they finally broke her waters this morning. I cant wait for little snuggles.
KellyD, that's crazy!! How on earth do you girls carry anything that big? I think my full term size was you at 20 weeks or at least 28 weeks, and BOC was my full size at about 8 weeks I still keep thinking of Neptune's little boy born at 4.5 kilos and when I see how much Jazz has grown to be now 4 kilos, I realise how little she was. Thanks for the photos, it was fun to compare.
Smithy...awww, you know you are the most loved girl in this forum, we are always thinking of you cos you always think of us. I took that photo just for you too
Not too much time for persies but just wanted to say I'm sorry to Lise for the loss of your grandfather and Littlemiss for the loss of DH's dad. I'm sure it's a bitter sweet time but you will get through it and those babies at the end will help to heal the pain.
Also just quickly to Kyrawolf, it's exciting gettting a gameplan together like you are. Congrats and good luck with that. Just on the point you made about not being the best at maths at school, you wipe the slate clean when you go back to study as a mature student. My DH never even passed year eleven, joined the Army at 17 with no schooling to speak of and later went on to have a whole second career - excelling at tafe, then teaching at tafe, then excelling at uni, then teaching at uni and now in two weeks will have finished his Doctorate and be a fully fledged research ecologist. You go girl, you can do anything !
Poppyfairy, what a cute little mate. Your life is going to be just wonderful and you will be a fantastic Mum.xox

: Forgot a persie
Hi all this will be a me post. Finally good news my SIL had a boy at 8.34pm weight wait for it 10pd4. OMG I had to ask my brother twice if he was joking.
But I went out in sympathy for her and had a bleed last night, so off we went for monitoring. Everything is fine bleeding was only small and has stopped and monitoring was fine. He went off like a jack in the box like a good little boy. (How is this for bad, my ob forgot I was there waiting for her to see me and went home. I had to talk to her over the phone as she explained that is was probably just the placenta coming away a bit. Nothing to worry about and the blood was mine) Dam and here I was hoping he was coming sooner.
Oh well, hope everyone is doing really well, off to get my baby snuggles this arvo.
[B]Smithy [/B]How's your 2 week count down going? just wondering what did you do with your belly cast? I'm thinking mounting on a canvas but not sure how to fill all the gaps, My belly isn't nice and cemetrical and flat. THought about gap filler but I don't want an explosion.
lilmiss thanks for your kind workds I hope pain is gone for labor too. for you and DH re FIL had to have such a sad thing happen when you're suposed to be so happy.
Lise such a sad thing to happen around Christmas
kyra hope the truck games were great, I can't wait to play games with Squeak
Hi Murph hope you and family are enjoying all the little things
Saph few thankgoodness all is ok, thanks for your thoughts. So good to hear your SIL and bubba are all well, you next hay?
ATM NEW WOMAN ALERT! Saw my OB who really isn't worth all the money I've paid but she put me on some pain killers and the midwife (who I think is a dead set legend) suggested I put my hip band from the physio on my belly. Well I did and instant relief.
It is all in my muscles aparently! Baby is requiring more room than I have to give. So with a few little pills and some good support I slept! still got up hourly to pee but I slept!
DH has been so emotional about me being in pain too which is really hard to deal with atm, I can't fix it for him and it's so hard to watch him cry about my pain, I'm glad he is paying attention but at the same time I don't think I can focus on anthing but me.
Oh also I'm going to be an aunty again. My Brother and SIL are having their 3rd. In canada though, but they are talking about moving back to aus in 2013 hope so. I'm going in 2012 for a visit so Squeak and new bubba will be a good age to play together. I hope it's a girl for them they already have 2 boys 4 and 2. Busy house that's going to be.
Sorry I have a me post too, just had 2 nights in hospital after having some very frequent BH contractions and some weird stitch like pains on Wed night, so Dr wanted to keep me in for 24 hours + for some monitoring. I did get to have a full growth scan yesterday, unfortunately twin 1 is a little behind in dates, measuring 31 weeks 2 days and 1.8kg, and twin 2 measuring 33 weeks and 2.2kg (this was at 34 weeks gestation). They are still both within the range but I am worrying a little. Dr wants another full growth scan in the next two weeks and will make a decision then as to whether they are growing enough and whether to take the out, I am now totally fine if that means a C section, just as long as they are in the best possible place, either in or out. So trying not to stress, and now googling how to help the put on weight, as I am not sure I can possibly eat any more
Lilmiss, I think I will give yoga a miss as don't want to do anything to bring them on early, but might pop by after to coffee with you and the girls.
Greenslw, Saph, Smithy and Ella'smum, thinking of you. Hi to everyone else xx
Saph -=- Congrats on the new arrival of your nephew! and sorry to hear you had a bit of a scare but at least everything is ok
Murph -=- wow your DH sounds like a brainiac superman How inspiring thank you so much for telling me that its certainly given me even more motivation
Grnslw -=- sorry to hear yuour having troubles.. Hopefully things will start happeneing any minute and DH can stop stressing so much and stressing you so much after ur happily holding lil bubs in ur arms
Baby dreamtime... Im not sure if theres anything more you can do besides taking multis for the preg and eating well... but im wishing you the best of luck that they manage to put a bit more weight on before crunch time. Good to hear your feeling more prepared now at least.. Hope to hear good news from you soon
Oh babydreamtime. I wish I new what I was doing to make a biggen. At 34 weeks this one was weighing 3.4kg. Because of how big he is we are now booked for a C section on the 8th of Feb. Good luck with the growing.
Baby Dreamtime...you can have some of my growth spurt if you like!! LOL.... We just got back from the obstetrician and she looked at me and said I bet you are measuring more than fullterm...she was right. We are measuring 42.5 at 34 weeks....no wonder I am so uncomfortable. So we have been told if it is all up to me now as to how much discomfort I can handle (keeping in mind that this boofa is living in a body that is barely 5 feet tall so well and truly no room at the inn). If I get to 36 weeks and cant take any more the she is happy to deliver...so the 12th Feb delivery date just got flexible again.....yikes to think he could be here in as little as 2 weeks....better get that carseat fitted hey!! So now we are down to twice weekly CTGs and weekly visits from here on in...just as well I work from home with all these bloomin medical appointments to fit in.
Poppyfairy you make beautiful babies...what a gorgeous little one...I am assuming you didnt need to get the army in to get you to hospy through all that snow!!
Greenslw....not long to go now, yay on getting at least a bit of sleep I am sure it makes a huge differnce to coping skills when you/we get decent sleep at this stage.....
sorry for no more personals....I can't scroll back any further..hope everyone else is well and gestating nicely!
