The thyroxine is used for my thyroid problem: it's improving so I was surprised they wanted to treat me when at its worst they didn't.
Scan today went well. Well as far as I could tell it did and the sonographer said everything but one thing was perfect. Hope she knows what she is talking about. The cord insertion is in the side so that's a little bit of a worry. From my experience it's mostly labour it can pose a problem or induction. I hope not and hopefully I'll know more when i get my results in a few weeks time.
We only just told our kids. They are happy. Not too much longer now for you. How is the diabetes going? I have my test in another 5weeks but I am thinking of doing it sooner.
Not much to report. Looking forward up hitting the 20week mark. I guess then my next big milestone will be 24weeks
Sorry haven't answered you,have had trouble logging in ...scan went well ,measurement spot on ,except stomach measurement was less than average but still in the healthy range ,,she must get that from her dad ,long time since my stomach measured under average ,pregnant or not ,lol...got another scan at 36 weeks ,,diabetic dr 50 /50 about insulin so see him again next week and he is going to reaccess it ,,yeah kids are excited ,they're bringing home little things for her when they go to the shops ,cute of them ...are you telling the kids the gender ?my ds1 was hoping for a boy ,think that's got bit to do with Matthew though ,,he got over it really quick though after I told him baby was a girl,,are you still working ?
No we are not telling the kids the gender (or anyone else). We want to keep some surprises.
As for work I'm working up until I am 38weeks. Hoping Bub arrives around then. 3 of my 4 have spontaneously and the only one that didn't had placental issues (it was packing it in at 39wks) He was growth restricted and I started haemorrhaging. Fingers crossed to avoid that this time.
Sounds like your in good hands with regular appointments
Be a nice surprise for them ,,I was going to work upto 38 weeks with my first ,couldn't work my 2 weeks notice as baby came at 36 weeks ,,yeah lots of appointments ,reached my Medicare safety net threshold already for the year.,noticed your ticker ,,half way point yay
Yes it will be a nice surprise for them. They want us to find out
I don't know if 38weeks is pushing it. I do have sick leave I can take and possibly the opportunity to do shorter days that last week or 2. Its going to be a struggle but I feel I need to attempt to keep going for financial reasons and my job isn't terribly physical.
About half way now. I just weighed myself and was disappointed I have put on quiet a bit of weight in the last few weeks. I guess there is no point worrying about it now.
I haven't weighed myself,but my 10 year old last night was saying ,think belles getting big in there,lol,,,getting a fair bit of ligament pain ,the old bones are protesting ,,stopped me in my tracks at the shops yesterday ,had to just stand still for a while ,then i was able to make it back to the car ,couldn't get up my front steps ,,good it's flatter around the side of the house,after I laid down for a bit it eased,,,money is a pain ,don't think I'm going to be able to finish house renovations before baby is born ,money is just not going to be there ,but might be able to get inside at least finished..good there is a plan b to do shorter days or take sick leave if it gets too much for you
Ouch. Those ligament pains don't sound pleasant. Age definitely catches us doesn't it? I certainly have a few more struggles with this one then my 1st (who is pushing 16).
Yes I am having some issues with money. Only because my pay has been incorrect for the last 6weeks. I am down over $500 a fortnight due to pay errors so its money I have earned and have expected but it hasn't arrived. Very disappointing when I was told it was all fixed up and again its the 3rd fortnight pay where I haven't received my back pay for the missed pays or the correct pay for the shifts I have already done. So frustrating.
Not much to report with the pregnancy. I saw my GP yesterday. I don't see the Ob for another 4-5weeks (shared care). I have to have that glucose test somewhere in the next few weeks. Still hardly getting movements. But with the Doppler yesterday you could hear all the movements I just couldn't feel them.
Probably just positioning of something then ,,doppler is reassuring ,I didn't get one thought I'd stress myself out too much with it...hope your pay gets sorted soon ,,afm ,I'm on insulin ,small doses ,one before tea and one at bedtime,,dr said sometimes towards end of pregnancy diet just isn't enough
How are you going MM? You must be so close now. Was it April you were having your little girl? Are they inducing you?
AFM nothing to report. Almost 24weeks just hanging out to hit that milestone. I have had a lot of trouble logging in.
Hi ,dr is saying at the moment induction around 38 weeks if havent gone into labour before then,which puts me around the 20th April ,depending I suppose on what day he does his inductions,,I've got the 36 week scan on Monday ,then drs app on Tuesday ,and app to try to express milk for freezing on Wednesday ,then councilling app on Thursday who I've been seeing since my mum died,,the induction at the moment seems to be more of a precaution ...I've been having trouble logging in too..did your Glocuse test come back ok ?you still hanging in there at work?my dh is panicking a bit as our car has broken down and mechanic is actually not to sure whats wrong with it ,he is panicking about me getting to the hospital ,,I said suppose ill have to catch a taxi ,not sure if they take you in labour though ?and he said might take a while for them to get here and I said well I'm not expecting that quick of a labour ,,he is outside at the moment talking to neighbours,probably seeing which ones can be on call,,lol,suppose if contractions are very close ,there is always the ambulance
jBM yeah for hitting the 2nd trimester I hope everything is going well.
MM I'll be thinking of you and wishing you a beautiful birth experience and that everything goes very smoothly as you welcome your newest baby into the world.
AFM not much to report. Not to far away from the 3rd trimester.
Thanks mildez,saw dr today and she had gotten herself in a sideways position ,he was able to turn her to head down position but said he didn't know how long she would stay in the right position ,,then he sent me up to hospital for a ctg ,which showed her heart rate being good,,see him again on Thursday and he will check her position and talking induction on Friday ,,he also said my cervix is a little opened
Saw dr yesterday and she has stayed head down ,,but dr would like my cervix to be more favourable before inducing me so it's been postponed to Monday night ,,,had another ctg today and midwives were pleased with results....how is everyone else ?
