Pregnancy after Long Term TTC - Sept/Oct 2007

[Lenny]

Thanks Sazz and Mako (she says, all bashful). And ltl Panda too!!
I'm 31 now eeek . I feel blessed this year, and although I hated turning 30 - 31 was fine! Even the tiny drop of red wine i had was more than enough, and we had Thai for dinner. My skinny jeans still fitted - so that's something to be happy about...but not for much longer. The bump is making it's presence known to me. No preggie clothes needed yet...but trackies are my best friend
I had a little incident happen today with my puppy and i burst into tears. thank goodness DH was with me and he handled the whole thing. It must have been the hormones because the 'old' me would have reacted differently for sure.

I hope everyone is well and happy today...taking care of ourselves and our little cargoes.

Kotare and Panda I'm so pleased that you were both spoilt rotten

Sazz Try not to stress about not being organised as atleast you have all the furniture you need for bub. We are going to pick up our cot and other baby items this weekend.

I had my ob apppointment yesterday and it didn't go as well as I would have liked
The heart beat was good and my blood pressure was ok too but the results from my last scan weren't as good as they could have been. There isn't alot of amniotic fluid aroud the baby so I need to have another scan on the 22nd October and if they haven't improved I may need to be induced that week or early the next week. My Ob also told me that she won't allow me to go past my due date as it is way too risky for bub with my history so I guess I will have may baby in my arms no later than 6 weeks today.
I also asked about the pulled muscle and she said that it could take a while to heal and to take it as a sign that I need to slow down and take thing easy from now on. I also asked about working and she said that as long as I was comfortable it would be ok so I guess I'll just wait and see how the next scan goes and go from there.
Dh and I had a great day together on Tuesday. We didn't end up going to Manly as I couldn't be bothered driving all that way so we went for lunch close to home which was lovely and then went to see Rush Hour 3. It was so very funny.

I hope you are all doing well. Big belly rubs to everyone.
