Still here - you'll get sick of me saying that soon! OB appointment tomorrow at 13:10 and acupuncture at 15:30. Fingers crossed as i'm very sick of feeling like I have a cannonball in my tummy...!
Lisa B - congratulations and welcome! Wishing you a very happy and health pregnancy. Don't worry about no symptoms, I hope they stay away! I didn't really have any throughout the whole pregnancy so it doesn't have to mean that there's something wrong
Lairdoz - hope your scan goes well on Monday and hope your asthma goes away soon.
mum-2-be - as I said to Lisa B, no symptoms doesn't mean anything is wrong! You will probably worry the whole way through your pregnancy but it does get a little easier eventually and everyone here is exactly the same so worry away to your hearts content - we'll always listen
Paula - so what happened in antenatal class?!
Chrissy - what a bargain, good for you! I had to start buying maternity clothes from about 15 weeks also - it wasn't that I was huge, but more as you said that things started getting a little tight and uncomfortable and digging into my belly too much.
Mitf - my BH contractions sound more like Wantbaby's - just like period pain which doesn't go away. They don't necessarily get stronger or more frequent, more that I'm just crampy all day. Very annoying!
Right a) sorry if I sound whingey and b) sorry once again for the lack of persies. I am feeling odd and sick and miserable. Anyone got any tips? I feel really nauseous, and out of kilter and just wierd. I've tried all the anti-sickness things that worked for me when I had mild MS, but anyone got any other ideas? (other than to give birth, which seems to be my obs answer to stopping my various other complaints, aches and pains. Ha!)
LISA B~ Congrats on your positive result!! Dont feel guilty at all.IVF is extremely difficult to go through whether its one or five cycles.We have all been in the same situation and wouldnt wish infertility on anyone,so we are glad when anyone who has had trouble conceiving falls pregnant. RE: symptoms..i hardly had any til 6 weeks and then it was extreme tiredness,emptying bladder all the time and loss of appetite.I lost 2 kgs in the first trimester.I never really had any breast changes til much,much later and never had 'real' nausea.Not everyone gets morning sickness or symptoms but trust me...changes WILL take place.
MUM2BE~Read above (as i wrote to Lisa B re symptoms)
PAULA~ I bet you had to practice breastfeeding those ugly googly eyed dolls tonight.LOL.
Have you got everything ready now for Tiana? I had never heard that name before i met you,but in the past week i have heard it twice!! Where does it originate from? Im keeping my chosen name a secret..it took forever to find something that DH and i liked.He hated everything i chose. Im so excited that i have 22 days left.I washed everything the other day and realised i had several pairs of cute leggings,tights and pants but NO long sleeved tops or cardigans.Back to the shops i must go now...aahhh.My legs are so tired..in fact my whole body aches these days.
CK77~Im going to st george private and i think its only a $30 charge for DH to stay the night.Im pretty sure thats what our antenatal teacher/midwife said.I hope so.Would hate to pay $100!!
LISE~ I asked my ob today about painful BH and he said it is different for everyone and some women feel crampy during them.As long as there arent 6+ in an hour they are harmless.For you though,i hope you DO get more than 6 in an hour.Im happy for my peanut to stay put for a few weeks longer.
Everyone else..hope you are sailing along nicely.
As for me,i had my ob app today and i went in with a list of questions.I have a coldsore and yesterday applied Zovirax 3x on it then found out,you cant use it in pregnancy.I freaked about it all night,as you can imagine.I stopped using it and washed what was remaining off,but felt sooooooo worried.LUCKILY,my ob looked at me like an over paranoid nut and said it was o.k.Bub is fully developed and no birth defects could take place,and that because its just a topical cream,it wont go through the bloodstream.Its a category B,which is meant to be a no-no,but due to being so far along and using so little,it was all o.k......PHEW!!
My next question was i have a red,itchy rash on both breasta around my nipples.Apparantely its just a hormonal thing.
FINALLY...bub has turned around.She is now head down and a petite size.Doc reckons she will be 7 pound at birth.I like that size.My son was eight pound and just too big.It doesnt matter anyhow as i am booked for my csection but im so glad i have a "smart" baby.LOL. I kept telling dh she took after him because she didnt know which way to face but now she has headed down,we are both happy.Id hate to have gone into labour naturally with her in a breech position.
Well im off.Im going to finish this block of Lindt choccie and glass of milk then head to bed.Goodnight all.xx
