Tiff, I got all warm and fuzzy reading about Ivy and Noah, and I agree with Sal, can't wait until I have a squidgy one of my own! I'm so torn, want to be pg forever, but want to see my bub too! Can't have it both ways. I'm looking forward to your birth story.
Sal, DH is 100% more paranoid than me. I think becuase I've had three kids before, I feel more confident of things going right rather than wrong. Not completely, like with my first three, but more so than DH. I guess after 7 faileld IVFs, he can't help but think this is too good to be true, and keeps expecting something to go wrong. Poor DH, I think he won't truly believe it all until he's holding bub in his arms.
Small whinge from me: to coincide with my return to work, i've started having trouble sleeping. If I sleep on my left, I get bad cramps down the side of my belly and my thigh, and if I sleep on my right, my right hip and leg goes numb. I spent the last two nights tossing and turning, and poor DH sits up with me when I can't get comfortable so I don't feel lonely in the middle of the night, but I reckon he can't keep this up much longer either.
I got myself a body pillow over a week ago and it initialy helped, but the symptoms are back. Am thinking about a quick visit to my obgyn to discuss, but thought I'd ask you girls first. Any ideas? I'm exhausted the next morning and aching from hauling my belly from side to side all night. I nodded off at 9pm last night but still feel like I haven't slept a wink.
Trish, looking forward to hearing about your scan on Thurs!
