Paula, yay for only 5 more sleeps, so excited for you, scans are always great to set your mind at ease that all is going well. Looking forward to hearing your news.
LM, so glad you feel better, the sound of their heartbeat is magic I think.
Mitf, 2 baby showers sounds divine, and all those lovely gifts, have fun. And glad you had a great time in Melbourne.
Hi KellyD, Hi Janie, Hi Grub, thanks for stopping by!
Kyra, glad all is well with you, I found picking girls names easier, and if we were to have a boy, with my husband begin Greek, I have always known first born son would be named after DH's father, so easy. Good luck and have fun deciding.
BOC, I have given up trying to keep down there neat and tidy, and now with it being likely I will have a Csection, it doesn't matter so much. Though I did book in for a pedicure as I too can't really reach my toes. The joys. Will you be updating the EDD list for this new thread? I can't wait to see where I fall!
Lovely Smithy, hope you and Charlie are doing well, your pics and video are beautiful!
Melbel and Saph, I am counting down the days with you both, at least the end is in sight. Hope you both are travelling well.
Lilmiss, still hanging in there. Could your sore spot be from your little mans head? I have really sensitive sore pressure points where my girls' heads always pop up, it feels really stingy too? And yes, the heat is bad, but have been in the pool and am now in aircon watching the tennis Looks like I will see you Sat for coffee.
Lise, I can't help re the nipple question, but the girls have some good advice. Good on you for baking, I was meaning cooking my girls lol, I should have been clearer, not sure if I could stand in the kitchen for more than 10 minutes at this stage, my feet are like hobbit feet, even my calves are swollen. I am dying to indulge in the nesting need, but just don't have the energy.
AFM, we had our scan today, both girls are fine, still breech, and have put on weight, Aria is still smaller than Sophia, but measuring 2.4kg and 2.8kg respectively, so ok sizes, they both have little heads (better than big heads I guess lol). I am waiting for the blood test results for my itchiness, it is called Cholestasis, something about the liver not processing bile acids properly causing it to enter the blood stream, making the blood sort of toxic, and causing all over 24 hour itching, only happens in about 1% of pregnancies, lucky me! If it is positive I will have a Csection booked next Wed 3 Feb, if it is negative, we are going for 38 weeks, so 10 Feb, yikes, can my belly get any bigger? That is unless I go into labour naturally before then.
So that is the plan so far, can't believe I have made it this far and am sort of dreading the next 2 weeks, but at least it is best for the girls.
Hi to anyone I have missed xx
Special mention to Dusty and Loula, in case you are reading, we are stalking you, hope you both can pop in here and say hi sometime, and so happy for you both x
Smithy~ I just watched your latest youtube vid.....oh my.What a pretty little girl you have there!! She truly is breathtaking.I loved her having a shower with her daddy....precious!
Havnt been on lately as i havent been receiving my emails so im not sure what everyone else has been upto.
Has Green had her bub?
I dont have much to report except that i look like i am 5 months instead of 13 weeks! Plus my boobs have grown...wow! My nipples are the size of dinner plates which im a little unsure of.I think they look too big but if that makes it easier for bub to find his/her dinner,then so be it.
I have finally resorted to Metamucil as im really constipated and oh my,has my appetite returned.I lost 2kgs in the first 3 months but now have gone back up to my 47 kgs which im happy about.
Today i had toast,cereal,juice,peppermint chocolate,more juice,leftover chicken stirfry with rice,banana,dinner(mince-potato's-pasta),custard,cordial.
That is HUGE for me...considering i have been forcing myself to eat fruit,dry crackers and only dinner for the past 3 months.hehehe.No more food aversions.I even had a big mac meal yesterday which i have recently been disgusted over the mere thought of previously.looks like bub is set to do some major growing now... LOL
Hi all, I am thinking green is holding her little bundle now.
Just a quick one from me I am in hospital for the second day. My blood pressure went up and bloods showed preeclampsia starting. BP settled over night and was just about to go home with strict instructions to rest but didnt even make it out of bed before it had gone up again. So the next plan was to induce me tomorrow but then he has moved his head. The head that has been engaged the whole time is now not, so induction is off and if he doesnt move i have been told to prepare myself for a C section on monday. Please keep your fingers crossed for me that he puts his head back down and we can meet him tomorrow. Even though I was booked in for cs i really didnt want one.
Another gorgeous Video Smithy... You are one very talented woman with one very beautiful girl...
BDT - I so glad the girls are both growing ok... So sorry about the possible Cholestasis.. Sounds very uncomfortable.. Fingers crossed here that the BT is negative... Come on girls we want a head down and natural labour to start.. As for my pain the midwife said it's just me stretching and there's nothing I can do about it so i will cope... See you Saturday..
Wantbaby#2 - So good to hear that you have your appetite back... Bubs will love you for it... Grow little one..
Saph204 - Good luck Hun.. I really hope that he will put his head back down and start labour himself or ay least to allow the induction... Head down vibes coming your way...
Hello all. Hope you are well. I'm at work worse luck. I just cannot wait to give up. I hope there's no spycam watching me write this...
Smithy High Pants - love love love your video. I love the section of Charlie in the shower with her Dad. That's such a lovely thing to capture.
BDT - sorry to hear about the toxic blood thing... sounds grim. Hope you get the right result, but just think, babies soon! I hope Aria (sp?) catches up soon. How lucky to be having twins.
Saph - blimey - it's all go in here. I hope that the head goes back where it should be!!! Good luck for the next few days.
Paula/ Lise/ Mitf/ wantbaby - hope you are all and swelling nicely! I am highly disgruntled this morning after not getting a seat on the tram. I was sticking my belly out (to make sure I wasn't confused with a pie-eater) and rubbing it too. Grrrrrr. I had curry for dinner last night, and I swear it made the baby move.... can't wait for DH to come home so I can bore him rigid with all my imaginings
Everyone else I send belly rubs to esp Greenslw who must be finished pushing now, I hope!!! have a lovely Friday ladies
Looks like I will see you Sat for coffee.
bdt... WOW HUNNY NOT LONG NOW TILL YOU MEET YOUR 2 LITTLE BEAUTIES,I JUST CANT WAIT FOR YOUR BA,IM SO PROUD OF YOU HUNNY.
can't wait for DH to come home so I can bore him rigid with all my imaginings
