Pregnancy after Long Term TTC - Jan 2008

[traceylee]

Hi Girls,

Kimbe - BIG CONGRATS KIMBE ON PRECIOUS JENNA MICHELLE!!!! Hope you all are feeling okay and everyone is healthy. Rest up and enjoy every minute.

Lismith & Nic - best friend had a tetra snuggle bed for her 3 bubs and wouldnt be without one.

Me - feeling better this week though bub wasnt moving and so I went to the hospital on Tuesday morning to get monitored for movement and heartbeat for half an hour. A bit scary being in a delivery suite at 25.5 weeks. All is fine and Bub is very active. My placenta is still anterior (right at the front) and because of his position I couldnt feel him for a few days. They taught me to lay on my side, have something really cold like ice to chew or a really cold drink, get in a dark room, concentrate and relax but dont sleep. Bub should start moving within an hour. He has been moving since and he is fine. Thank goodness.

Have a great day girls, the weather is beautiful in all states today!

Hey TraceyLee

I had an anterior placenta too...so it was harder to feel movements at first...and therefore, easier to get worried!!!

The sonographer who I saw for the 13 week scan said to me to remember how much I could see the baby moving around (but not feel it at all)...so that at later on in the pregnancy (around 20-25 weeks) when I still couldn't feel much, to just remember the 13 week scan movement.

That helped!

Glad to hear that all is okay.

The good thing about an anterior placenta is later on in the pregnancy when bubs is doing massive kicks, you have some cushioning!!!

Lenny and Marcellus...the race is on!!! Hope all is going fantastically!!!

Satya, Lissmith, Nic...hope all is going well!
