Pregnancy after Long Term TTC - March 2008

[nic]

LOL Arielle at being hungry lately. I find myself making my way to the fridge (after the 3am loo stop) a lot lately too. As for DTD, DH's fear has stemmed from watching the OB do the u/s on friday and how low the doppler thingy was. He said it was on my c/s scar, which is pretty low, I usually wear some low rise hipsters, and my scar still sits below them. I also think he is a bit concerned that last time we DTD, I ended up with the UTI a couple of days later.
Combine those 2 things with him worried that DTD will bring labour on, along with the fact the hospital is 2 hours away, as our little local hospital is not equipped to deliver, which would then mean a ride in the helicopter to get there, I think my DH is freaking out majorly about DTD! Sadly, I think even if the OB said it was fine, DH still wouldn't want to do it Feels like we've done nothing but avoid it over the last 12 months.

Thanks Arielle
Once again you have come to the rescue....I think Im just waiting for that 12 week mark to go by.....see GP this Fridayt o arrange for my cans....NEXT week....hoping everything is ok. I think its fine as I am having a lot of hypos which I was told that its the baby sucking all my sugar out of me and then I teke insulin then I have a hypo....so maybe having them all is good news in a strnge kind of way. but I do know its not good for the baby so that is making me nervous but at the moment it it unavoidable. they say it will get better as time goes on and it will go the other way. i will have high sugars.....GREAT! Anyway....i just have to take one day at a time...

Hope your doing ok......not long for you now ladies!!!

Hi ladies hope you all had a wonderful mothers day.......IM STILL HERE
The leakage stopped so guess I may have peed myself, my swelling has subsided significantly since stopping work, and as of yesterday morning she had still not engaged .....I really find myself wondering if I am still pregnant, maybe I am just terribly bloated I havent been getting contractions at all the only difference now is that I get very sharp pain in my pubic bone, when she moves so she has to be doing something down there!!!!!

Its all so confusing, I want her out so badly but at the same time i am so scared now about the next step that I am starting to think maybe she should just stay put for a bit longer. FOR GOODNESS SAKE....THIS IS WHY I SHOULD HAVE KEPT WORKING!!!!!!The old brain has nothing to focus on accept baby and lack of. Maybe i'll hit my due date, fingers crossed

Sorry its a really selfish post, i'll be back to catch up with everyone
Hope your all doing ok, you all sound good xxxx
