Pregnancy after Long Term TTC - Nov 2007

[sazzafrazz]

Hi Girls,
Horray KTgirl, so glad you got your scan done and WOW at expecting twins!!!! very exciting.
Welcome Nic, good to see you here. Enjoy!
Ltlpanda, I have pretty bad carpal tunnel anyhow but it has been much worse of late. I guess the extra pressure in upper back from big boobs is doing it. I am trying to do things like sanding and painting and its a little tricky when you cant feel your fingers!!! Have you tried massaging your forearm from wrist up to elbow? Get DH to do it so you dont make the other arm sore too lol.
Hope everything is going well for you Jo... cant wait to hear your news!!!

Me: had a family get together on the weekend and came away very upset... GRRRR my mum is driving me insane at the moment. Had a big talk with my brother & SIL and got upset by that too. Ended up in tears at fasta pasta! very embarrassing.....Ah the joys of hormones. I am realising that they (and my family) will be a lot more intense in the weeks of christmas/ birth etc and am really not looking forward to that. sigh.

Hi to all, hope you are going great!!!

Ltl Panda - good on you for getting all your furniture organised.
I too had carpel tunnel but only for a couple of weeks during my 2nd trimester & it would be mostly at night I'd wake up with the tingling, aching hands sorry I can't tell you how to fix it though.

Sazz - sorry you got upset with the family, it is very hard sometimes being so hormonal & other pp don't actually think that you are more sensitive at this time.
Xmas will be very hectic for you but maybe try & get some things organised early so you don't have so much to worry about.

Mako - well done on your first outing, I can only imagine how daunting that must feel, I bet you drove soooooooo slow with your precious cargo on board.
Thanks for asking my next appoint. is not till Friday & I think I have decided not to be induced unless of course he says bubs will be quite big.
I am still hoping I will go into labour very shortly, I did have some blood tinged mucous this morning so I'm hoping my plug is coming away.
I know the last few weeks I have noticed this mucous but this is the first time it's had blood so fingers crossed.

Jo - 28 (treated endo)
Dh - 34
Second chlomid / IUI March 2007 -

Congrats on twins KT that's great news!

Jo - good luck with the mucous . Really sounds like labour shouldn't be too far off... hope so anyway

Sorry you're feeling the family stress Sazz. I hope you can get through the 'festive' season ok.

Felix is so clever Mon!

Congrats on getting through your exams Ltl panda and on getting all your baby stuff together.

Do as many HPTs as you like Nic - i bet you're both counting the days to your scan next week.

Did sage enjoy his little outing Mako?

Zap - hope all is well after your scan.

Catch youse all later - i gotta get back to work.
