i bet you look beautiful hun and SEX while being pregnant whats that lol my poor old fella didnt get it for months and months,yeh i felt bad for him SOMETIMES but oh well GET OVER IT DH
One of my thighs alone weighs nearly 51kg.
Now the previous posts make being a part of this forum so much more worthwhile.You girls are fantastic at making me feel better and making me laugh and smile.Thankyou,everyone!!! :lol:
Smithy~ We havnt DTD since 3 days before the egg collection!! I did tell him that from 30 weeks onwards we will give it a go.....yuk.Im not sure i will want to but i dont want him searching elsewhere (not that he would but you never know) and especially since ive heard many say that once the baby is born you never get a chance to.I figure i should make 'some' effort.;) Part of being married i guess.LOL
I have been watching peanut going wild in my belly.It actually starten to frighten me a little as there were big lumps poking out next to my belly button and the movements were soooo strong.My whole belly was looking bumpy and being pushed all around!! Felt like i had a full term bub in there wearing soccer boots.
I know i keep asking but has ANYONE heard from Sammiejam???? (Colts mummy)
I had a friends daughter today give birth to her son who has the Anti D thingy and she never had the injections required and now the blood has transferred across to the mum.I know that Little Colt had some trouble after birth,but had started to pick up and was getting better.If anyone gets into contact,can you get her to pop in to say how he is doing? I pray all is o.k :pray:
Well Connor turned 13 today and he stayed in his room all day playing his new wii games.He was very happy.I actually felt neglected but found the time to bake 30 muffins and start on my next sculpted baby for ebay.
Hope everyone is well.
Lilmiss' baby Ethan Boh is a big boy! Im curious as to his middle name 'boh'.Curious as to the meaning/inspiration.
What is everyone elses inspiration behind their name choices? (no need to give away names though)
The names i chose are because of meanings and one name which we are yet to agree on for a middle name (we are having 2 second names) is my cousins name who passed away at 17 when i was only 11.The meanings of my chosen names are 'Priceless' and 'Graceful' and 'Beauty'.
xx
Hey my lovely bellies :)
Just thought Id pop in a quick one while my son has decided to go lie down.
WELCOME ETHAN AND BIG CONGRATS TO LIL MISS!! Its soo good to see another fed up LTTTC'er finally get her wish :) Its beautiful isnt it that after all the hard years of waiting and and trying and seeing so many people getting pregnant so easy then finally finding herself there and getting through the long pregnancy wait to hear another healthy bubba has blessed his mummys life :)
Sorry if that sounds corny or outwardly religious, its not :) Im just feeling very happy for her especially after the last entry when she was so damn fed up with waiting!
Want baby#2 -=- hunni 51 kilos is beyond my wildest dreams lol! I was 55 in high school and Id be lucky to get back down to my pre pregnancy 65kg after this one! Especially considering the amount of chocolate and apple pie with custard Ive been scoffing down the last week! HAHA! Your are such an inspiration being so healthy this whole time and cutting out all the caffiene being so good to yourself and the bubba! What an example of a great well deserving mummy! Your son sounds great! I would be so happy if my lil man turns out as well mannered and caring as that! I thought it was so cute that he is threatening to steal away bubbi to get them away from the swearing! Please dnt be to wrryd about a bit of a belly hun! There is always something thats going to bug us ladies about our bodies no matter what we do and what size we are :) for me its my chunder thighs.. even more chunderous whilst holding up my lil one! I hate them so much especially considering the rest of my looks relitively small which makes them seem even bigger and more out of proportion.. But hey, it hasnt stopped me eating desserts on thursday nights yet so I suppose it musnt be all THAT bad LOL :D
Lise -=- It must be hard for you to not be able to share with your friends what youve been through.. Your very sweet respecting your DH's feelings that way and keeping quiet about it all :) Glad you have plenty of friends to get clucky with now! Does that make you happy or is it a little hard to hear? When I was TTC for well over one year and my GF decided she woulld start trying with her bf of a whopping 3 months.. then fell pregnant.. went through her whole pregnancy and then gave birth and I still wasnt pregnant.. I found it really hard not to be jealose of her.. I just always felt when she was complaining about pregnancy and such that it was so unfair and even felt she was taking it for granted because here she was *****ing to me about it all when I couldnt even concieve.. But at the same time I immersed myself in helping her with everything and became so involved with her pregnancy. We had our 2nd MC just before she had her baby and at that point I felt like giving up and ended up giving her all our baby things.. But it seemed like she didnt even care about us losing our bub and was just happy to be scoring some stuff. I dont know maybe I was just over sensitive at the time.. but it makes me wonder how it will all feel when I hear pg news now.. hm not sure..
AFM -=- well im still here haha isnt it funny how Im already so fed up and wondering why I havnt popped yet even tho I still have 9 days to go! I almost feel guilty for not being mroe patient and at least wait until im over b4 getting grumpy about it lol
Well Im getting some really strange pains today.. I can only describe them as dull stabbing period like pains in my pelvis and through to the back.. they are comeing in waves but there arnt realy any contractions or tighening.. I figure its not labour.. but does anyone know if that is something else like maybe its the cervix softening or something?? Gosh who knos.. guess ill have to wait and see...
Love to all hope to be announcing to you soon :)
Ky
wantbaby#2 its great to see we are all here to support you isnt it.. hahaha.. Im more than happy to join in if DH keeps it up so make sure you let us all know :D
kyrawolfe not long to go now. Hope those pains mean something is well and truly happening.
So most of you ladies were/are not not interesting in DTD at all throughout your pregnancy?? Umm :redface::redface: i guess my DH can count himself lucky..LOL
Paula - it's not me it's DH!! I can't tempt him for love nor money and I'm about to threaten him with divorce if he doesn't agree to DTD soon...! He's so worried about hurting the chicklet which I think is lovely, but this is way too long!!
Ky - it's funny, now that I'm pregnant I'm perfectly fine when I hear of friends falling pregnant and indeed excited to have friends along for the ride, but when we were still trying I was certainly angry and teary and jealous. DH used to hate telling me about any friends having babies, I was definitely a green eyed monster. That friend of yours doesn't sound like a friend at all, I'm glad you've got friends around you know who seem much nicer! And I hope your pains are a sign of things to come VERY SOON! Will be keeping my fingers crossed for you xx
Wantbaby - you can add me to the list of people willing to hit DH around the head. I'm sure you look just gorgeous and this is not the time for you to be feeling bad about your body. I love my belly and can't wait till it gets even bigger!!
Londonmiss - I think you might be talking about MY thighs there! As for my butt nowdays...!
Well chicklet is going off tonight, I think she's having a disco or something in there she's so active! DH put his face on my belly and she gave him a huge kick on the cheek, hehehe. Put my official application for mat leave in today, so so excited!! Only 17 more working days :)
lise that is sweet of DH not wanting to hurt chicklet. Hopefully though for your sake he starts to feel more at ease soon and understand that its ok and chicklet is well and truly cushioned in there. Isnt it just the most amazing feeling when they have their little discos inside us. I love it!!
Just had lunch with a friend who has a four month old baby and OMG.. i want my bub out now! I was soooo in love. Totally lost track of time and got back to work late but it was worth it. He was so adorable and pleasant. It amazing to see what will be here and all mine in just a few more months.
ha ha ha sorry I didn't respond, I was DTD :D:D:D
gosh, you could wait for years to use a line like that! But I actually was!!! To answer your question - no, we certainly don't do it as much as we used to but still regularly-ish if you see what I mean. Long enough to realise we could give it a go and that would be lovely, and long enough between goes that we forget how bloody logistical the whole thing has become!! Little babydoll nightdresses are the answer in my book, and candles rather than lights. I'm self conscious about my body, despite all this stuff about glowing motherhood making you sexier (and I definitely cannot do it when she's kicking, that's just way too wierd) which I think is a bit idealistic when you have a great big belly to actually contend with. But no, its not quite a drought in our house, more a bit less rain than normal ;)
GO LONDONMISS!!!! :D;) Haha..
just a quick one for me today :)
Those niggly period like stabby ish pains are still comeing every 15 minutes... wish they would progress already! so excited and impatient at the same time! DH has started doing half days at work because hes anxious about being home with me more now helping me sleep more and taking care of DS for me.. and also wanting to be here when things kick off.. He has this big fear that when things happen and if hes at work his co-worker will take forever to get to the shop so he can leave. I really dnt think jelly bean is far away now my bellies! Continueing to drink my raspberry leaf tea (which is yummy with honey btw) and curry food chillis etc... speaking of dtd have given up on that one LOL way to hard to manouvre now! but lets just wait and see :) I think Im close girls i really do :D
Ky
:rofl: aww chicky babe you poor thing,but i totally know this feeling as i said my poor old fella waited for months and months I WAS NOT GOING TO DTD NO WAY :lol: i thought the risk of hurting my bub was to great and apart from that i just didnt feel like it at all,actually i remember saying i could go the rest of my life with out dtd lol. and we do always get that yukky feeling of "would my man go elsewer "knowing very well they wouldnt but thats how we still think hun.:
so i didnt even have to dtd i use to gee myself up and say to dh well ill give you a (tmi)hand job sometimes this use to shut him up for a while:rofl: id say i dont feel like doing it for you but its a favour.so on would go the cream on the old hand and off we'd go pmsl (yes i know i said tmi lol)but the things we do,then even when we started it again i was so not into it:redface:
anyways hun just know you are not the only one this is happenig to ok dont feel bad at all.
so were mooving house tomorrow girls and i wont be online for a week or 2 so just wanted to say take care and belly rubs to you all.see you soon.
Oooh Kyra - that sounds very promising! Does it hurt yet, or is it more of a temporary thing? Does it feel like the start of a birth? If you've started, I won't bother changing the list until you have popped and I have both names to change :)
Go and eat something filling and have a bath whilst you have a chance. And make sure your DH knows his most important task (after looking after you of course) is to make sure that you or someone else gets to a laptop to update your bellyfriends when it happens! :clap:
lm -=- no not really hurting yet just enough to think something different is going on these last couple days.. TBH i have no idea.. I fear getting my hopes up for nothing but at the same time I am so wishig this is the beggining and Ill go in the next few days..:
Ill keep you all posted dnt wry :) with any luck things will progress tonight or tomorow and Ill be in and out of hosp in a few days and back home with bubs to announce by then! crossing fingers its not another false alarm!
anyway I havnt stopped eating since i concieved LOL so thats all fine the bath idea sounds good tho I wry about my waters breaking..
Hi gals!
Just popping in to say hi -"HI!" and see how everyone is doing.
Wantababy2- awwwww, I was so touched to see you asked after me and lil Colt :) We are doing fine now. Soooo glad to be home. I hope your friend and her bubs are holding up ok. It is a horrible and scary thing knowing that your blood is trying to attack your baby :( Im sure everything will be fine though as they can do so much for this situation now. How odd to hear of 2 cases in a month! It is supposed to be very rare now days...
LM- great to see everything is going well :) I cant believe you are already 27 wks! It seems like yesterday you got your bfp. And dont worry about the size of your thighs. I bet all y'all when it comes to weight gain during pregnancy lol. And my thighs are still WAYYYY huge. And dimply lol.
Paula - I love your ticker. So cute. And how nice to have lunch with added baby snuggles! In no time flat it will be your bubs that you are cuddling and you will be wondering where all that pregnancy time disappeared too. It really seems to go sooo fast - after its over LOL.
Lise- Phew, only 17 days to go at work - how wonderful! I bet you cant wait. Once you stop work you are really on the homeward stretch. ANd its so great to lie around all day in your jimjams eating bon-bons and pondering the size of your growing butt. Oh hang on, that was ME! hehehe - projecting again ;)
Kyra - OMG. I came on here in the nick of time!!! What is happening with you is exactly what happened with me! Just try to relax and have something to eat and drink. Advice I didnt take and lived to regret. You know that when the contractions get to about 5 mins its time to get your butt to the hospital right? Is DH home with you now? I am getting all nervous and excited for you! SQUEEEEEEEEE!!!!
AFM - Colt is doing great. He is still pretty small (or "compact" as his daddy says) but he is feeding like a ... mad feeding thing, and is cute as a button. He barely cries at all but is a really squawky wriggler. He is only waking once after his 11.30 feed so I am getting some sleep at night. THANK GOD. On an unusal note, he has no eyebrows. Not sure what that means but I have no qualms in drawing them on if they dont grow in before he starts school. JOKE!
Well speak of the devil and he squawks and squeezes out a big fart. I think thats my cue girls. Time to get out the boobs again. Sorry if i missed anyone out in the persies, I have worse baby-brain now than I did when I was preggo! Oh dear, someone is trying to wake the dead with angry howling, better dash.
Love to all!
Sammie
Am I on the wrong thread? There's way too much DTDing going on here. hehehe!!
Kyra - honey I hope this is the beginning and your next post is your BA! Sending as many good labour vibes your way as I can muster xx
Sammie - so glad you and Colt are home and doing well, though where are our pics?! Seriously, it must be so lovely to be home having 'normal time' after your experience, yay for you. And don't worry - I plan on spending my six weeks off eating as much as possible and lying around doing as little as possible. They might have to crane me to hospital, lol.
Londonmiss - stop making me jealous, though i'm glad you're still having fun with DH. I do wish mine wasn't quite so concerned with the Chicklet sometimes, I swear sometimes he just thinks of me as a vessel for his baby!
Paula - lucky you getting cuddles, I haven't had any baby hugs for ages, I so can't wait till I can squeeze the Chicklet all day long!
smithy - hehehe, you funny thing!
At work googling baby capsules, think we're going to hire one for the first six months and then buy one. What are others doing?
Hope you're all going well, sending belly rubs to everyone and especially to Kyra :)
lise xx
I have pic's to post, but dont know how to post pics!
Try saying that 5 times real fast lol.
Yes, we're hiring one from Port Phillip council. Even though we don't have a car, and legally don't have to use one in a taxi, it seems that it would be useful to have one. Although I have to say that this is the one baby related task that DH has, so we might be walking home from the hospital with the baby in a sling....
TMI .... I have white flakey, um, flakes on my nipples this morning. Is this breast milk leaking? If so, why only one boob?!! God will never fail to surprise me with this pregnancy lark.
Sammie - delighted to hear you are well. As a short person, I think compact is the perfect size and everyone else is inefficienctly tall ;)
Lise - see if you can get double discount on the crane and send it down to me ... I was coming back from Adelaide yesterday and went straight to work, missing proper breakfast and lunch. And realised that until dinner, I ate nothing but sugar and salt nonsense. No wonder my wee is the colour of a rainbow. Porridge for me for breakfast, salad for lunch and something healthy for dinner.
Hope you are all well and belly rubs to all :hello:
kyra OMG so exciting!! Hope things start progressing nicely for you very very soon!
Smithy happy moving hun. I dont envy you at all!
Sammie so good to hear that Colt is doing well. Had to laugh at the thought of you drawing on your lil mans eyebrows before he goes off to school... hahaha.. Im sure in time those fine hairs will darken and he will have beautiful eyebrows. Hope you work out how to upload the pics cause i would love to see little Colt.
lise not hiring a capsule. We bought a baby seat thats suitable from birth so happy to put Tiana in there from day one.
LondonMiss hope you manage to stick to your super healthy diet today. I try, but never seem to be able to eat my vegies at night. Ill make them and put them on the plate, take two bites and cant eat them anymore. Salad on the side is about as much greens as i get at night.
Have just bought online a very cute horse carousel for Tiana's room. Also bought a cushion for the feeding chair we have. All these little things are so cute!
Hey *waves sheepishly*
Im still here... Nothing is progressing yet.. Im still getting the same niggly pains every 10-15 minutes but again they dnt really mean much.. Had my Midwife appointment today she told me it is most likely bubbi trying to move down into the birth canal.
Anyway Ive gone from 3/5 engaged at 37 weeks to 1/5 engaged today WHAT! going backwards haha dont go back UP bubbi!!! but the midwife said all of this means nothing and I could still go into labour at any point so that made me feel better..
I feel like day and night now Im just sitting here waiting for something.. ANYTHING .. cant be long I really see it creeping up on me any moment now but the waiting part is driving me NUTS!!:wall:
lol hope everyone is well Its been nice lurking around reading all thats going on with you while I wait.. Sorry I havnt done more persies!
Announcing very soon . I hope :)
Ky
It might be. Try squeezing you nipple very gently and see if anything comes out. It might just be dry skin - my whole body seemed to need moisturising when i was pg.:
Squeezing produced nothing more that a slightly horrified DH.... :o
How you doing Kyra? What you all doing this weekend?
Londonmiss, earlier I had dry flakey nipples and the lovely ladies here suggested Lansinoh. I use it every second day or so and things are much better!
Ky , come out little bubba and give your mummy a break!!!
Paula - is that your 'inside belly' name or the real name?!
Hello to everyone else. Bit rushed this morning, on my way to my GP for, you guessed it, ANOTHER sinus infection. I'm still on antibiotics from the last one so not sure how that works... Will post properly once I'm back.
How are things progressing today Ky?
Lise what do you mean by inside name or real name?
Hehe, just something silly DH and I sometimes say Paula, as in is it the name you call the baby while you're still pregnant and it's still 'inside' your belly, or is that going to be the baby's name?
Still with us Kyra?
:shakehead: still waiting lol
same ol pain but today with an odd pressure like feeling on my "pelvic floor" or in lamens terms the bottom of my lady bits..
this is dragging out sooo long lol.. Im starting to think I may go over dates!
Aaargh I hate posting from a phone sometimes, it always eats my posts!!
Awww Ky.. I hope for your sake something happens over the weekend for you.
Lise oh ok, sorry it does make sense i just read it wrong. Yes Tiana is going to be our bubs name. You picked any names yet?
Hey ladies
Well it's been ages since I've been on here. Have been so busy lately. Also, DH is now in the middle of doing uni assignments, so chances are I won't be posting much as he will be on the laptop all the time. Usually my only chance of getting on is whenever his AFL team is playing, and they just happen to be playing tonight, so I've been able to use the computer.
Have missed way too much so won't try and cover everyone. Sorry about that in advance.
Congrats to Lilmiss on the birth of your little boy. Hope everything is going well.
Seph - Welcome back!! I always wonder about you and how you're going. Glad everything seems to be going well for you though. And yay for someone else having a boy on here. Seems like there are so many baby girls expected over the next couple of months.
Lise - hey there. You seem to be very unlucky with sinus infections / flu / colds. Must be very frustrating. Sorry to hear your 3D scan wasn't what you expected but I'm sure you're having a little girl. We are due to have a 3D scan in about a week and a half, and I too am hoping to reconfirm the sex of the baby. Cannot bring myself to buy anything blue until we have that scan and double check... that's just me though - super paranoid.
Hi to all the other lovely gals in here.....
AFM - pretty tired at the moment actually. Life has been hectic and I don't seem to be getting as much sleep as I'd like. Weekends are always busy so I never seem to feel rested by the time Monday comes around.
Still waiting on our nursery funiture to come in. We were told it would take 2-3 weeks, but it has now been 5 weeks and still haven't heard anything. Called them last week and was told they had received half the stuff, but were still waiting on the rest. Well they haven't called so I guess the rest hasn't arrived yet. Am thinking I might pop in over the weekend and see what's going on.
Am also feeling much more baby movement now which is very reassuring. Was bugging me a couple of weeks ago when I wasn't really feeling anything.
Might leave it at that, as I still have a load of washing to hang out as well as unstacking the dishwasher. Bring on a sleep in tomorrow!!!
Enjoy the weekend ladies.
Wishes xoxo
Hello all. Hello wishes, and hello Paula - thanks for telling us the name! Do 'real' people know or is it a BB secret? I won't tell anyone if it's a secret :shhh: he he he
DH took me out for dinner last night to a super lovely restaurant. I rang the changes by wearing a blue tent instead of my normal black tent. Ended up with more food on my belly than in my mouth practically. The waitress came round with that funny little strigil type thing that they scrape up crumbs off the table with, and I swear she looked at my belly and wondered if she should do that too ;)
My nesting continues apace, but it's more sort of planning and stuff. I'm very jealous of you girls who are having a babies room and can decorate and make it look pretty. Post lots of pics so I can get inspiration for when it does finally happen! Hope you all have a lovely long weekend with lots of rest! I've slept for eight straight hours with only one half asleep trip to the loo which is a gold star night for me, and only Little Miss I want to play football for England has woken me up with her kicking. But that's kind of cool. And it means I can take DH tea in bed which means I start the day off on brownie points too ... :dance:
SAMMIE~ I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo glad to hear from you.You really had me worried when you had been crying while typing your last post with a sick bub,then we dont hear anything for so long.I have asked,and asked but no word of how you were.I know i dont know you but i just couldnt stop thinking of you and baby Colt.I was telling my mum about ypur story and even she started asking me daily..."have you heard from the lady yet?" .... I prayed for you and Colt and am just over the moon that he is doing well....even WITHOUT eyebrows!! LOL. Oh good.I can relax now.(Deep sigh).Take care.Please post pics if you can. Are you on FB? I have joined with BOC on FB just so i can see her baby Jagger.I wont know how to post pics either when my time comes so mine will be via FB.
Londonmiss~ My bras are needing washing nearly every day as they are getting yellow flaky dried colostrum on the insides.When i take off my bra i have droplets of clear fluid on my nipples and have done so for a few weeks now.You said thers nothing except a horified DH when you squeeze? Thats o.k.Everyones different.I was "dripping" and soaking tshirts from 6 months on with DS but not this time...yet,so maybe thats my "thing'.LOL
Smithy~ Thanks for your post.It was very amusing.DH can happily use his own hand,i think.he has for this long without me.Im not that sweet to do 'favours'.LOL He is peeing me off lately so i DEFINATELY wont be giving favours.x
Everyone else i have been busy lately and havnt read the whole lot of posts...just skimmed through the shorter ones,but i will catch up later to see where everyones at.
Have a good Anzac day.DH an DS are still sleeping at 11am!! and im being lazy but will go and get my second lot of breakfast then come back later today.
Love to all.x
Paula - we've chosen a girl's name, but if the Chicklet does happen to be a boy, well it might take a bit longer! We've got a shortlist of male names but nothing that we both really love...
Wantbaby - what's your FB details? Will have to look you up :) And what kind of dolls do you make? You mentioned something about selling them on ebay? Can we take a look? And Sammiejam - are you on FB too? We can sneak a peek at your pics there if you have any!
Londonmiss - where did you go for dinner? DH and I are really missing Melbourne at the moment, particularly all our favourite restaurants and bars. We're trying to work out the logistics of taking the Chicklet to our favourite French bistro when we go to Melbourne (it's very small and cosy and not really pram friendly...!).
Wishes - good to hear from you! Glad things are going well even if you are still waiting on your furniture! Ours took about 8 weeks to arrive, though they said it could take up to 12 so I was actually pleasantly surprised. Perhaps that should be their tactic and then when it only takes 4 weeks you'd be super happy!!
Kyra - hope you're feeling okay, well actually I hope you're sitting there with a little bundle in your arms, but i'm trying not to continually ask 'are you there yet' cos i'm sure it's terribly annoying. Needless to say am continuing to send all sorts of labour and other good vibes your way xx
AFM - enjoying the long weekend at home very much. DH even cooked me my favourite breakfast this morning (minus the fetta, but hey, can't complain!) and then I went back to bed and read a book until lunch time. Heavenly. We then did a spot of shopping for the Chicklet - she doesn't need any more clothes whatsoever but we had some Pumpkin Patch vouchers we had to spend by tomorrow so we bought her a super cute party dress to wear to DH's brother's wedding in Canada!
Big hello to everyone else, though it seems like there's really only a few of us on here nowdays doesn't it? Come on any lurkers, come join us so we don't get sick of each other ;)
Enjoy the rest of your weekend ladies xx
Lise and anyone else interested...my facebook details are Alicia Toner.The profile pic is me in pink dress/brown hair with a blonde girl (my cousin). I have a facebook page also which shows the dolls i make (reborn dolls and tiny handsculpted babies from polymer clay) That page is called Creations To Love. Would love to see you on there.Anyone interested just add me and send a message saying your bb name so i know who you are :) Oh,the sex of our baby is a secret so please dont mention the sex while posting.My family would die if they knew people know and not them LOL!!!
Weighed myself today.I have gained 7 kgs.Im glad im putting on weight as i lost 2kg in the first trimester and use to be worried.
Peanut is very active and today i could see and feel a hard bump poking out.I was singing to her and she kicked REALLY hard....not sure if she LIKES my voice or not?! Going off what my son and hubby say about my voice,im guessing she is begging me to shutup LOL
Regarding the 'Lurkers" as described earlier,i agree it WOULD be nice for you all to pop in.The list has all these names with dates yet i dont know quite a few of them. So come say hi.:)
Wantbaby - won't give your secret away, promise! Likewise - I'm in the same boat, only you girls know the sex of our baby. Well actually...!!
Hi Ladies.. Thanks so much for all your lovely words of congratulations.. We have had a pretty rough start to all this as you know he was a biggen (he's actually 10pound and 1 point 2 ounces not 12 ounces as my husbands msg kinda read.. A lot of people thought the same..) I am very proud to say that i got my natural V birth after 12 hours and 46mins active labour.. we needed the ventouse at the end when I just thought I was too tired but turned out he had shoulder distocia and was unceremoniousy turned in my birth canal luckily by a lady with small hands'.. lol.. I had a 3rd degree tear and the worst pain was the local anesthetic for the ventouse extraction... That is the birth of my beautiful boy.. (full story to come when I post it in the birth stories thread) Unfortunately after Ethan's birth and having been stitched I ended up back in theatre as my stitched area had been leaking a lot of blood and by the time they realised it wasn't a normal PPH I had lost about 3.5 litres of blood and ended up with 2 blood transfusions totalling 7 units of blood and woke up in intensive care.. We have made it home after 3 1/2 days in hospital... Things are fantastic but I have to express every 3 hours and feed him formula until my milk comes right in cause he has an unsatiable appetiet and I call him my Lil suck monster... To answer what I think it was Wantbaby#2's question for names.. We chose Boh as his middle name as that was my FIL's name who passed away on the 3rd January this year from cancer.. very special to us..) I will be back at a point when I have some more time to be able to post some photos.. Good luck those that are getting close and trust your body.. Birth is amazing...

Hi ladies
I have just come across from the LT TTC forum. I have only just found out that i am pregnant :dance:My FET cycle was cancelled last month so i had a natural cycle. I was up to 50 days in my cycle and thought something must be up, that and the fact my bladder is going crazy. So i did a POAS on Sat and got a BFP straight up, got in for a BT on the same day and they confirmed the result. I am now paranoid everytime i feel an ache or pain and am just waiting for something to go wrong. It hasn't sunk in yet at all.
My fb is Sammie Jamieson - here's a link but not sure if it will work or not :)
Login | Facebook
Renee, CONGRATULATIONS and welcome to the thread! I think we may have crossed paths/posts on the LTTTC threads :) I know you'll find loads of support here, after all we've all come from a similar position and know all too well the anxieties that can take place. It does get easier (well I found it does - a bit!) and it certainly helped me having all the lovely ladies here I could ask questions of.
Lilmiss, goodness me honey, what a rough experience. I hope you're enjoying being home with your gorgeous bubba. Looking forward to seeing your pics xx
Renee - many many congratulations and welcome to the thread. You can feel assured that we are all as paranoid as you, and that we've all asked the questions you no doubt will ask so don't worry! 50 day cycle... blimey! The only definite advice I will give you is that of all the things in life that it is much better to prevent than cure is constipation and piles, so from 16 weeks, read the book and eat the dry apricots like a goodun'. :D
My belly must have external webcams, had my fourth braxton hicks contraction in a pub at lunchtime yesterday. How totally embarrassing! Everyone thought I was going into labour, old ladies looked excited that they might have some drama in their lives. So far, they've been in a cab, the middle of the night on my own and in a pub. Never just when I'm sat watching the tv quietly!!!
Boh is a lovely lovely name. All our names are family names which I think makes them so much more special.
wishes great to hear from you and that you are doing well :D
LondonMiss everyone knows of our lil girls name. We always refer to her by her name so its no secret. Looks like you have a cheeky lil one in there giving you those contractions in funny places :lol:
Lise i hear you on the not needing anymore clothes. We have bought Tiana quite a fair bit but she is sooo worth it!!
Dee wow you certainly went through a fair bit there. Glad to hear though that you are now doing well and so is your little/big boy :dance:
Renee welcome and congratulations on your BFP!
Girls, we have our flights to Canada booked, woo hoo!!! Am very excited, now we can start planning/dreaming of things to do. Plus it means that DH can't back out of going to Prince Edward Island :-)
Paula- must be so nice not having to keep the sex of your baby a secret. All my family and friends are constantly listening to everything I say to see if I 'slip up', and the don't even know we know, argh!!!
Londonmiss - my BH contractions haven't been as bad as that and I'm hoping to keep it that way lol.
Hello to everyone else and belly rubs to all xx
