farmgirl - what an insenstive sod of a doctor! it's no skin off his nose to write a bleeting referral particularly if it gives you peace of mind after everything you usually have to endure for a bubs! but great news about only needing aspirin! I know someone others here are the same... can you (or someone else) tell me why you need heparin or aspirin? we didn't only metformin for 12 weeks ox (ps don't feel obliged, i'm just curious on what it's for/supposed to do etc).
yayaya jbm...gee i get the feeling you *may* be excited. could be wrong tho! lol.
aimee sounds like you are having a trying week with hospital visits and pain! hope things start to get better soon!
kaybee - hope you didn't choke on your chocolate while laying down! lol you should always prop yourself up a little to help inhale chocoalte
Well 35 weeks! just saw the midwife and all is swell. bub is still head down and i'm carrying quite low (as i did with ds). DH hope tomorrow and it can't be soon enough as i'm just so exhausted with DS atm. He's not being overly naughty (he is 17 mnths old tho lol) he's just very very busy and inquisitive and demanding!
Good luck JBM! Can't wait to hear if there is one or two in there, on the edge of my seat.
Farmgirl, great news re no injections.
Hi everyone else. AFM...
HELP!!!
I had bad AF type pains this morning, and I started bleeding about 9am. Started off brownish, but now is normal AF red. Lots of cramps, I have taken two panadol and have a tampon in (sorry for TMI) as I could not stand the trickle, sitting at work wondering what is happening and is it all over. I can't really tell how much bleeding, it looks like a lot but I wouldn't say a mini tampon full (again sorry for TMI). Oh my God. I am only 6+1. I guess nothing to do but wait and see, I will see if I can get in to see OB tomorrow if he thinks it is worth it. I know they say that bleeding is common, but I have always heard it is the brown blood that is common, not the fresh red stuff. I am guttered. Sorry again for the me post
BDT- oh huge hugs to you, you must be so anxious right now... we all have heard stories of people having red blood and all being ok, so I really hope that's the case for you. thinking of you- I would want to get in and have a scan asap just to see.
grub- wow 35 weeks!!! no wonder you are feeling tired, hope you can get some time out
aimee- sounds like you have had a pretty rough time of it over the past week- glad you got to see your baby again though and hope all settles down
JBM- cant wait to hear your results!
FG- great news about your results and no heparin!! I thinkyour GP could have been a bit more understanding of your history also, but I know how they can be
MH- sometimes the news and things that happen around us is just so depressing..hope your BIL is ok
kaybee- hope you can get some rest, thinking of you
afm- thanks for checking on me... all has showed up clear from the MRI thank goodness!! so just one of those preggo things...I can put up with that, knowing that my health is ok!
BDT i know its hard to do but try not stress untill you know for sure, are you booked in for a 7 week scan? Be positive and lets just hope its nothing xxxxx
JBM how did you go today? one or two?
AFM- Its the big day tomorrow, so so excited but aso a bit nervous!! will try get on tomorrow night to let you know if its a boy or girl Scan isnt till 5 so will be a long day at work.
Farm girl thanks for that, well thats a bit like me felt heaps of movement sat and monday but not really anything significant today or yesterday, trying to stop my self from stressing out about why i havnt felt anything for a few days! But im sure all is good!
baby dreamtime - i'm so sorry and i hope all is ok , its horrible waiting to see what happens, i have had some late implantation bleeding before, thinking of you......
possums - glad all went ok with your mri, hope the throbbing ends soon though, must drive you crazy
jbm - hope today went well, you're keeping us in suspense!
oneday - yay for scan tomorrow, so excited to find out if bub is behaving, but hope all is well with everything.
farmgirl - how annoying - even my friends who don't have any history of problems usually still get an early scan - called a dating scan i think - will you go and ask a different gp for one?
grub - yay for nana naps, not long to go now exciting!!!
afm - i did end up telling my DD's about the baby on the weekend, it has been good, they have been much more gentle around my stomach and felt baby kick this morning, I'm just glad they aren't old enough to ask me ay tricky questions about how the baby comes out - but i'm c-section anyway.
here comes my paranoia for today - a friend of mine thinks her DD might have parvovirus, but we haven't seen her since last thursday, still I think I might go to the gp for a quickie blood test tomorrow - eek I think I'll just hibernate for the next 13 weeks - we seem to get sick every time we go anywhere or see anyone.
BDT - I filled a pad's worth full of fresh red stuff around the 11 week mark. And that was it. All stopped. I agree with everyone, don't panic until you know for sure.
Big Contrats JBM! That is wonderful news, I am so happy for you.
AFM, sadly scan today confirmed miscarriage, I assumed as much as heavy bleeding and pain all night. I am numb, this is twice in two months, a lot to take and don't really know what to think, trying not to think I guess. I think the worst is that this was to be my big amazing miracle, one I don't think I can do again, so will have to think about our last frosty maybe in a few months.
So am bowing out and will leave you lovely ladies, wishing you all the best for your pregnancies and joy with your babies, thanks so much for your support. Luv xx
BDT- my heart sank when I read your post, I am so so sorry and I feel so much for you- it certainly is a lot to take and life simply is not fair. Just take some time to deal with this and look after yourself and then think about the next step. I am so sorry for your loss and the emotional rollercoaster you have been on.
