Pregnancy after Long Term TTC - Nov 2007

Hi Missy, yes I think its early, I had mine at 7 weeks, I though it was procedure to wait until 7 weeks, maybe they were just checking to make sure that it had implanted in the right spot. Good luck with the next one…..

Mako and Jo, sleepless nights, sound great....I hope you can find the time to catch up on sleep during the day. Looking forward to finally having the baby in my arms, so cannot wait….
also glad that your little babies are doing well.

Well not much for me, just looking forward to my baby shower, holiday, Christmas, New Year, my sister giving birth and me finally holding my baby….

Mako & Monnie - I need help, just when I thought Jenna & I were doing really well we've had a little meltdown the last 3 days.
Around 6.00 till 11.00 at night bubs is really grizzly & wont go to sleep for 4-5 hours.
She has been feed, changed & will sometimes fall asleep in arms but when I put her down she completely wakes up & sometimes wont even settle in my arms.
Have you guys experienced this? she will also want 2 hourly feeds at this time which as you know is so demanding & you wouldn't mind if it meant she would sleep for awhile.
I just don't know how she can manage to stay awake for that long!

I know I have to change my ticker but I can't remember how to do it! (baby brain)

Jo - 28 (treated endo)
Dh - 34
Jenna Maree born 2 weeks early 9/11/07

Hey Jo, my mum use to put us in a bassinette and put us in bed with her and dad. The bassinette will protect the baby from either of you rolling on to the little one, maybe just your presence close by would assist, even if you have your hand on her belly…….hope things settle down hun.

Hi Jo

Sage is also unsettled at this time of day. It has only just started the last couple of days and I put it down to the fact that we went to my brothers house on Friday night and came home Saturday. The WHOLE time we were there someone was nursing Sage and as soon as we came home and put him in his rocker he would scream even if he was asleep grrrr.

I have also noticed that he is having trouble getting all his wind up and has been waking with pains in his tummy. So needless to say we are burping him constantly. Sage also had a growth spurt towards the end of last week and he was feeding 2 hourly.

All I can suggest is that you and your dh take it in turns as to who settles Jenna and I can't remember if you are breastfeeding or not but if you are maybe you could express into a bottle and dh could feed her occassionally. I do this too and I find it gives me a little break

Hope this helps a little for you Jo. Feel free to PM me anytime if you want some help

I can't believe Sage is 5 weeks old today. He's growing so fast. I had him weighed this morning and he's now 3.03kgs. Not sure what that is in pounds and ounces. I'm going to look to see if I can find a site that converts weights now so I know what I'm talking about.

Hi to you all. Hope you are all doing well.

Ktgirl How are you and itchy and scratchy doing? Haven't seen you around for a little while.
