Deejoy your situation is very reassuring I hope it does go away though, I cant' handle the worrying :rolleyes:
chappas thanks lovely
I have been taking it easy since 11am and when I wiped at 4:45 it was bright red again :( Ohhhhh I just want it to go away!
Hi All,
Well I have just read through all the recent posts but dont have pen or paper and my memory is like a sieve at the moment. What I do remember is a few of you are having girsl - yaya girls clothes are so cute.
I also note a few of you are very close to popping so I pary all goes well for you
There also a few of you that aren't have the greatest of times at the moment - Cherish - Hang there - it will all work out.
Hugs all round
AFM - Saw the doc and all is going well - 25 weeks now. Bub is very active at the moment which is very cool. Still very tired and would love to go to bed now but would be awake in the wee hours of the morning. Took another belly shot this morning and I have certainly grown over the past 4 weeks - belly huge so I had to buy more clothes. Speak to you soon
Cherished :hug: Any bleeding is so scary. I know how you feel about not wanting to go to the ob. It's not like they can change the outcome at this stage anyway. Sounds like you're doing all the right things by taking it easy. I know you know this, but wanted to say it again anyway. Spotting doesn't mean it's all over. I had a really heavy, red bleed for 2 days, with clots as big as my palm, but things are still going ok. :hug: thinking of you and Tiger, and hope you don't have any more bleeding.
Congratulations Jenushka!! Well done and welcome to Lila!
Karen Van Just over 4 weeks till you finish work! How does DD feel about the little brother/sister on the way? How long did you wait till you told her?
Therese That does sound scary. Glad that you're feeling better and that bub is doing well. :hug:
Greenslw So you've had someone guess that you're UTD already! Bet that took you by surprise. Why will your exit from work be messy? I think mine will be messy too. I signed a contract to work there till the end of the year, but I'm due late in Nov, and HAVE to be there till my project finishes in end of Oct. I just hope bubs doesn't come a month early.
WTH Glad that you've had no more scary CM.
Meredith Maybe as you reach the 30s it will be easier to relax and enjoy your pg? Hang in there Upsy Daisy xo
Deejoy Very exciting! Do you think your little man is going to arrive early, late, on time-ish?
Lee Are you out there? I hope you're feeling better. I know your kids are probably keeping you busy too, but hope you can get on here soon and tell us how you're going. xo
AFM I was excited to buy my first maternity item yesterday. Elastic waist jeans! I was dreading this as a start to frumpy-mum-clothing, but elastic waist jeans are brilliant! I can't believe that PG women have been keeping this secret for so long! I don't understand why everyone doesn't wear them. Took all the pain out of jeans shopping, cos the first pair I tried on, fit! Sorry about being so excited about something so frivoulous.
Hello to anyone I missed. HOpe you're all having lovely weekends.
Pash OMG that must have been horrifying with clots that size! Your story is very reassuring for me!
Easha thanks :hug: enjoy your shopping! :bellyrubs:
AFM It's a bit heavier today and red so I'm off to the ER when dh wakes up. I'm not in pain and I think everything is fine however it's a great reason to get a scan and to have my HCG checked today... I've read you can't always see a heartbeat at 6 weeks but gee it'd be so exciting if there was one!!! I have an appointment on wed to see my GP for the HCG levels and I wasn't seeing my OB until June 22nd for an 8 weeks scan... So I'll be jumping the cue today and having a check. I pray it is all ok :pray:
Cherished - aghhh bleeding is so horrid in pg. I am the QUEEN of pg bleeding and i can certainly reassure that it is not always the end. This pg i bled continuously from 5-16wks with bouts of extremely heavy clotting etc.This baby even stuck it out through the m/c of her twin so some of them can be very tough indeed.
I do think a trip to the ER is warranted. At least you will know whats going on. You certainly may see a HB even at 6wks. I have seen 4 of my babies' HB's clearly at 5w6d
Thanks Meredith, I've shed a lot of tears today :crying: it has gotten worse, all red blood now, I would say it's a light flow now. Not too painful, just feels like my period. I'm so upset and worried. I know many woman bleed and things are ok but I just wish it wasn't happening to me. We went to the ER and sat there for 1 and a half hours and than decided to leave. We would have been there for about 7 hours if we had stayed and it's not like they could actually do anything to affect the outcome whether it be positive or negative. I'll go to the dr as planed Wed and maybe they can give me a referral for an ultrasound so that I don't have to wait... I'll be getting a HCG BT anyway.
:hug: cherrished my thoughts are with you.
Pash, Similar reasons to you. I signed on till 30June2010 but we are tendering for our service in July this year (no worries except fog on the brain but I'm ok) but the major one is in January. So I'll either be working from home or be waddling into meetings. I really don't want to work much past the 15th of January not every day. Maternity Leave wont kick in till March so I'm not sure what they'll do. I'll have to make a phone call to the union this week I think, just know my options. They are a really really good company but who knows what companies can be like when they're faced with PG staff.
ATM DP is a pain in the but. I had a huge vent in another forum and can't do it again or I'll hit him with a bat. Just to say that he is yelling at everyone and doing the poor me. He suffers from depression and anxiety, refuses to take medication and 80% is pretty on the ball the other 20% it is like being in a phyc ward I tell ya. (I'm exadurating a little) Just the not knowing what's up his nose and not being able to fix it. I know I could leap at him give him a cuddle and try and make it better but it ****s me having to pander to his stuff. I know I'm a hormonal mess, but common this is temporary and at last conversation he wanted a baby too. :wall:
Oh Cherished, so sorry you have to suffer through this w/e just not knowing. Thats awful!
I am hoping the bleeding stops soon for you and you get some positive answers on Wed ( could you bring this forward to Tues?
If the bleeding gets heavier or you get pain then may be worth heading back to ER. You shouldn't have to suffer on your own
Hey Greenlw it's funny us both being in here and belly buddies :p I'll send your DP a second message from me :angry: hehehehee
Meredith Wed is the next day that I can see the dr... It is getting heavier as the day goes on and more painful but If I end up in bad pain etc I will do something but I think it will be fine :rolleyes: I told DH about your story about bleeding for so long and the other woman who had bleeding especially poor pash with size of those clots! and it helped ease his mind considerably too.
Thanks again girls :grouphug:
Cherished - I am thinking of you, I really hope the bleeding stops soon and that everything will be ok! big hugs xox
ervybery honey thank you :hug: God it must seem so trivial compared to what you have been through... If anything you give me hope that everything will be ok ;) A few of your beautiful October belly buddies have posted me their support in my new belly buddy group and I am just overwhelmed with how cared about I feel from you girls. I will let you know how I am going
Cherished - I am thinking of you and praying that everything works out fine. My thoughts are with you xxxx
Thanks to everyone for the get well wishes. I am well on the road to recovery after 3 weeks and mild pneumonia. I am actually going to work tomorrow with just the remnants of a cold.
I hope you are all keeping well and had a relaxing weekend.
Cherished - :comfort: I have not been online over the weekend and was sorry to read you have been going through such a difficult time. My thoughts are with you :hug: and I hope tomorrow brings you some promising news :stickyvibesgirl::stickyvibesboy:
Just quickly... heading out to the movies.
There was nothing there at the scan....
Cherished - OMG - so truly sorry, hun :comfort: That must have been a sad and unwelcome shock for you. I think you have been very brave through all of this and hope to see you back here in the very near future. :hug: Please feel free to PM me any time. OK? Luv WTH xx
Just a quick one to let you know that my hcg is 37,000 and I'm getting my heart beat scan Monday :D :leap:
Cherished - Oh no :hug: Hun I am so very very sorry....I wish that there were more I could say....ditto to what WTH said, if there's anything I can do that might help please LMK? Take care of yourselves, you and DH.
BBL for some persies.
Cherished - I am so sorry. It's just not fair that you have had to go through this again so soon. I wish there was something I could do or say to make you feel better at the moment. Im here for you if you need me. Big hugs xox
