Iona honey, sending you huge huggs.
My cramping and back pain is getting so much worse, I am terrified. I promise I am resting and totally relaxed, I'm jut not at all confident.
Sorry I'm a downer in here ladies, I'm not my usual self at all X
Murray and Iona I feel for you so much, I have been there twice and it just sucks. BUt it could be nothing, not that that makes you feel any better. Time is the only thing that can help, I generally hate time, it so slow.....
AFM well I am a bit down too. All is well with bubs, so please bear with me, I know I probably seem like I am whinging but honestly I have to do it somewhere.
In my home I am usually so bubbly energetic and to be frank full of sexual energy. Since conception basically my poor little libido has really left the building. I am sooo tired, last night went to bed at 7.30pm much to DH dismay. He made a comment and said that he knew it would all be about the Baby...it made me feel like sh*t. I dont want to have to pretend I feel good and want to BD if I dont...I am certain it will all come back to me in 2nd trimester I couldnt get enough last time...Its just so sad that this joyful time is surrounded with such disapointment about my "overnight sensation" DH words on my changes. I cant help whats happening to my body..
milly - sometimes they don't realise that bub can suck the life out of us!! I know DP thought the same way your hubby does when I was pregnant with DS. They just don't understand!!!
murray - sending you heaps of hugs and sticky vibes. I'm hoping the next few days go quickly so you can see bub at your u/s
Well girls, I;m pretty sure my time in this thread has come to an end, the bleeding has been continuous since about 8pm last night and with my levels that low I don't have much faith. I want to thank all you wonderful girls for all the support you have given me in the last week. Mwah
I am sorry Iona Big big cuddles as you grieve your little one.
Murray I just want to affirm to you that cramping such as you are describing is not at all unusual. Very very common - I had it with every pregnancy. Like you I expected to get my period at any moment. But I didn't! Please try and keep that positive in mind. I truly truly get how hard this is. I lost 3 little angels and 3 babies in my second trimester so I am so with you that the road is much harder after that BFP than before. You will get through this. One step at a time. Set yourself some goals. Tuesday is your next one. Then after then there is another. This for me was the only way I could get through. Sending you love.
MurrayCod - I had cramps like that too, and was convinced it was the end. I know it is hard to relax, but do try and just take one day at a time. sending sticky vibes
Milly - I have had "zero" libido. Try not to be down on yourself, it's really hard to be up for it if you are tired, anxious or feeling sick!
Iona - I am so sorry to see you go from this thread. I am sorry to hear your angel is gone. Take care of yourself.
MurrayCod - Hang in there! You only have a few more days till your scan and when you see that heartbeat I really feel your cramps will ease up as I am sure stress is playing a part in this.
Iona: oh no! I'm very disappointed for you. So sorry that your symptoms don't seem promising. I'll keep stalking to see how you are.
Murray cod: did you stay home in the end? I'm sorry you are in pain and worrying so much. I'm counting down to Tuesday with you when you get to see your baby. I can only imagine how unnerving the cramping is after all you've been through to get this BFP. I can only say again that in my experience cramping can be quite a normal part of pregnancy so i'm hoping that's all this is for you. (I've had cramps on and off this pg though not as bad as with my DD).
Millyd: ikwym. libido can leave the building and i've felt a bit guilty... like i wanted it before when TTC and now i don't so much. But it's not because 'oh i've got pg i don't need it anymore'. I can't help it if i don't feel like it. DH is pretty understanding but still lets me know that he's available any time i change my mind! I think it's hard on them because they haven't got any reason not to feel like it anymore (no crazy hormones going around) but i don't think we should have to BD a whole lot when we don't feel like it.
Milly5: hello, nice to meet you! Sorry you're uncomfortable. I don't think i have any helpful suggestions if the pillows aren't working, sorry!
Dory: Can't remember when I last said hello as we're crossing paths in a couple of threads but i think i saw somewhere that you are 26 weeks. I'm thrilled for you. Keep up the good work!
How is everyone doing? We all seem to have gone a bit quiet, is that nervousness?
MurrayCod - how are you doing Sweetie? Only one more day and you can have that scan. Can't wait to hear you tell us all how exciting it was to see the heartbeat.
MillyD - I think DH's can really feel put out after the initial excitement. I had forgotten how stressed being pregnant makes my DH and it puts him off sex rather than me. I don't even get many cuddles these days. He isn't aware he does it.
AFM - I have been quite sick this week. I have a really bad cold and blocked ears and feel ill every time I eat. I'm still not sure if the sick feeling is due to the baby or the cold because I don't usually get morning sickness but they say every pregnancy is different. I don't feel so bad today and of course that just makes me feel worried as I have become used to feeling sick. Can't wait to get over these first 12 weeks so I can stop worrying over every little sign (or lack of them).
Iona - Just read about the loss. I am so sorry that you are going through this. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Big Hugs to you.
Murraycod - Thinking of you, and waiting to hear that good good news. Take care lovey xoxx
Dory - How have you been? Whats happening, no posts from you? Hope you are feeling good and relaxing as much as you can. I am waiting for the release of "Knight and Day" - I know its in July, but that keeping me distracted from counting days and hours and minutes. I am getting bored at home. I am inviting you for cuppa and some snacks and we can chat aways our boredom and may be watch some new movies.
Thinking of you xoxx

Girls thank you all so much for the support you have all given me over the past few weeks, I know I have been a complete and utter nervouse wreck!!!
Doc tells me my cramping is fine and it is caused by high levels of progestrone being made in my body. Gave me sttrict instructions to rest and enjoy from now on!!
Audax, so glad the days are moving fast and buisy for you XXXX Hope you are fat and well XXX Hey have you got a car yet or are you still on your bike?? I plan on getting my treadmill back out of the dusty corner it's been sitting in, and start doing some relaxing walking again.
Ashie welcome darling, I know exactly how you must be feeling!! Please just take it easy and rest XXX
Kit, hmmmm, darling, go book the scan please please. It will help reassure you everything is fine X I know it's hard, but it has to be done sooner or later, so put yourself at ease and give us a time and date!!XXX
Sammy I hope you are starting to feel better XX
Possum, yeah I wen't to Melbourne in the end, that's why Iv'e been MIA. It did me good to go, I would have only stressed at home anyway, and was nice to catch up with family. Going to Adelaide and back today killed me though, 12hrs driving (well for DH not me) 10 hrs snoozing for me!!! My butt is sore from sitting on it for three days! Promise am going to take it easy at home for the next few day now XXXX
Dory darling, hope you are resting up with your kittens at home in the warm!! I got home thisevening and one of my kittens was missing, but it decided to turn up after a while, have no idea where it got to. I guess having a 30acre farm to roam around on, I'm hoping it decided to go for a nice long walk to do a poop, rather than do one in my fernery for a change!! Darn thing!!!
Ris, my love to you sweetheart, you have been my rock this week!!XX Hope you are doing well yourself XXXX
Hoping, how are you? XX
milly5, MWAH honey XX About the libido, I don't either. Brings on too much cramping, so not going there!!XX
Big big cuddles as you grieve your little one.
