Nixon - i was breach up until 2 weeks before EDD - they thought mum would have to have a c/s for breach baby cos i refused to move no matter what. she had a little fall and bumped my bum out of her pelvis, i flipped and engaged same day!
damn shame the doc was impatient and did a c/s day after her EDD - he induced her early to try to prove his dates were right not hers - i was born 4 days after his guesstimate, one day after hers...
Well I'm here again. Just coming out of a stressful 3 weeks with my family. All is settling down now though. I don't mean to ignore you all. I secretly come on every day to check how everyone is going, but just don't often get time to post.
I'm excited to let you all know we are 18 weeks today and things are going really well. I'm pretty big and still have a lot of bladder discomfort, but that's a small price to pay for the gift we have been given. Have felt 3 kicks from the outside and can easily hear little heartbeats on my doppler. I have 2 very busy little babies inside me who like to move around as much as they can!!
Not going to try to catch up on everyone's personals. I would be sure to miss someone and you all mean a lot to me.
Just wanted to say hi and tell you I'm thinking of you all.
not a lot to say of late - feeling very blah with the heat. have just had a cool shower and even that hasn't helped. am worried about keeping myself cool enough to make sure Gremlin is ok, and drinking enough. i hit 5L of water yesterday, plus some juice, cos i constantly felt dry and thirsty - over night, i felt parched all night.... baby seems to LOVE the full bladder though! am wondering if i'm not absorbing enough form the water, but anything sweet seems to make me feel blah...
had a good moment yesterday - picked up layby of sleep suits from target sales (mum put them on for me so i didn't have to go to town early) - they are so soft and cute. i know i need to wash them, but yesterday, i took all the tags and stuff off, folded them (i actually enjoyed folding clothes - must have been heat stroke or something!) and decided to put them in babie's drawers out of the way - out of sight out of mind kwim? we have some gender specific stuff in there so needed to hide it. the swelling of emotion in me as i packed her stuff in the drawer was just overwhelming - i got all teary. it was like welcoming her officially - she has clothes in the drawer now - it's real - she's coming!
BG- How sweet. I can't wait to do the same. We have been living with DH's parents for 4 months now and will soon be moving into our own house, so I can't wait to get the nursery started.
Smithy, very sweet for you to check in and know that you will be here very soon
AFM, June Bug has moving moving around a fair bit this arvo and have been getting some weird feeling under my belly button sort of feels like being twisted??
It only started for the last couple of days and has happened about 3 times in total lasting for about 20sec??
BG- very sweet and I can imagine the flood of emotion. Just wanted to ask, i know you are in public care, due to the area you are in also, and just wondering how many scans you have...when are regular scans scheduled?...just not sure what to expect if we make it past 12 weeks this time. Might ask my midwife about that
Bel- hello lovely! glad all is going so well
Nicole- glad lots of movement
smithy- hope to see you here very soon!
afm- just hanging out for the next scan now...a week to go..debating whether to get a doppler to use later on
Chez - Hope everything is ok? I can't remember the last time I saw a post from you - probably me and my domestic blindess, but anyway. Hope all is well with you.
