eat small and often for the dizzies. BP could be a little low if it's happening when you stand up quickly. take it easy getting up! not as easy done as said, but hey, we'll say it anyway! i've found i can mostly control it that way. i dived up to grab my mobile the other day - thankfully DH was home and caught me as the dizzy took over - so just take it easy!
Mel - so glad you're being more "possimistic" - about time!! you probably need the (in)sanity of talking to others not just me - i'm a very one dimensional person - it's all about ME!! pull up a comfy chair, and get yourself into this chat!
AFM - had a pregnant moment earlier (though it could almost be a blonde or just downright STOOPID moment) - put some food in the oven to cook and not sure if i put the oven a bit higher than normal, but somehow i managed to turn it all to charcoal. i'd planned a late-ish dinner to sustain me through the night, and it ended up a VERY late dinner when i had to cook a whole other meal! i had intended being in bed on my way to sleep by nine - it's now almost 10, i have to go feed the haminals, take the bin out - and put myself into bed, so i'm going to do a runner!
Just passing through on my way to bed - didn't think there'd be this much to read!
Mel, good luck with the anti-ms thoughts! I hope it works for you! And you've just (I think) hit on the reason for my low BSLs... I dropped my prednisone dosage and I don't think my body has adjusted yet! All I can suggest is keep in close contact with Dr S and follow his guidance. He's usually brilliant at replying quickly, I've found.
Anyway... must go... think it's going to be another night of excitable munchkins - he's been going off all afternoon without a break!
Mel HUGE and congrats so glad to hear of your BFP!! Woohoo! You can have my bed i am well and truely ready to go!
Khalan- The CM & Dizziness sounds pretty normal, take it easy and make sure you are eating reguarly etc. Look after yourself!
Megan - Good luck with the Dr, did you do the 1 or 2 hour test? If you did the short one he may just want you to do the longer one and you may be perfectly fine! Good luck!
HM - Ahh you make me laugh your DH sounds like mine!
TL - not long know until we know if its Archer or Charlotte and i can't wait! Plus i want to see more pics of that gorgeous baby!
This thread is taking of it is just fantastic 2008 has been such a wonderful year for BB AC stats! I know i have missed heaps of people but i am reading and sending huge to everyone!
Only 8 sleeps to go here, and after a very dissapointing Ob appointment yesterday babies are still head down and the boy is almost completely engaged but after a not so nice internal something is wrong she thinks his head may not be positioned right so he is not putting the right pressure on my cervix so all my pain is not doing any good its just because his head is tilted wrong which will make the induction a lot harder. So ate a fair amount of crunchie chocolate and curled up on the couch all crampy and feeling sorry for myself.
Youchy Shannon, You have all the crunchies you want hun...i would be feelign sorry for myself too hun. Hopefully the bubbas are on their way. Will you have to induce or can you go naturally if you can? Oh how very exciting.
Hm xoxox
HM, at 30 weeks I've had all of one internal exam (not counting the 6 week internal scan), and that was at 17 weeks and only because I'd been bleeding. I think internals are something that aren't going to happen regularly, at least until we're in the final stages of pregnancy like Shannon is.
Shan, sorry the appointment wasn't as great as you'd hoped... hopefully things will go well and your little troublemaker will move a bit soon.
I'm with you though, the stats in here have been amazing - even for those having been under long term assisted conception... I think we've got one LTACer due every month for the first 6 months of the year - and that's bloody amazing and super fantastic!
Can anyone (Shan, I think you're the only one left ahead of me now) tell me about the sharp, shooty, stabby pains in the cervix? I'm still pretty sure Munchkin is transverse, so I don't think it's a well-aimed kick!
Thanks for that BW...yeah i have heard that unless you have an issue, you can opt not to have one...i guess it depends. Thanks for the comfort hun.
Yukky stuff!
