Pregnancy after Miscarriage or Loss November 2009

[LittleOnes]

greenslw - lol at your ob and the easter comment. That's really funny. Made me laugh and I still have a big grin on my face. Excellent news that baby has dropped too. Yay for leave!!!

cherished - what sort of pain are you experiencing? Early I got loads of little niggly stretchy crampy pains, they go after a little bit and then you just feel like it's not real until you start getting movement. Glad the ms has kicked in a little for you though as I know that it helps you to believe that it's really happening!! Oh, re back pains, may be worth checking out an osteopath (I'm biased towards them over chiropractors!!) to make sure that your back is all ok. I've been seeing one monthly all through and she's helped me a lot.

Tinar - great to see you in here and even better to see how far along you are now! Don't feel like a fraud! It's so wonderful that everything is growing beautifully for you! As for clothes... that's funny!

AFM - this morning I had to go to the podiatrist. Since Tuesday have had bad pains in my left foot and my osteo is on leave til next week so I can't see her til Wednesday. Pod said that quite a bit of it is probably due to spending all day Monday wandering the shops with my sis and having relaxin coursing through my veins or wherever it courses through...! I can feel it in my pelvis so I'm inclined to believe him. My hips and pelvis are quite unstable and I keep injuring myself doing the most mundane things. So now I have my foot strapped up with padding attached to part of it to take the pressure off that part of my foot and instructions to stay off it for a few days as much as possible... So... that being said I took advantage of some prescribed down time and went to spotlight and bought lots of wool to crochet up blankets for 4 girlfriends who are due to have babies over the next couple of months! Fun!

Hi ladies!!

thanks for the reassurance on the HCG Greenslw & cherished

Greenslw - I hope that baby is born before easter Good news about finishing work!

Cherished - me too (sore - twingy things like a stich, which of course sets in panic) Bring on the vommies I say!!

Hello Tina!! Glad all is going well for you!! and men, eh? LOL about the singlets & ruggers!!

Smallfry - hope your foot mends soon!

[Greenslw]

Cherished hope DH is a good massager.

TinaR I'm doing the flip flop with boy girl too. will know soon

Smallfry glad someone is laughing it's ok I know she's trying to be funny. She's had 4 kids so I guess I'll forgive her. Sounds like it's time for you to leave the shopping to your sis. It's hard but you really don't relise how far you walk.

Milly thanks for sharing my shock. Not Funny! well maybe a little

ATM just hiding out in a dark cool house. with 41C outside "there's no place like home" Dh is out and about today leaving me to my own devices. Hmmm only thing missing is some Chips. Dam I wish I got some on the way home last night. Don't want to venture out incase I turn into a puddle!

Hope you are all cool and happy

[Cherished]

Tina thank you for writing such nice words about me, you've made me all warm and fuzzy! and you make me giggle with your fraud comment lol, I already look 6 months pregnant cause I have a bit of a belly anyway and I can't suck it in cause I'm bloated and feel like a fraud cause I'm only 5 weeks!

Greenslw heheheh I would n't risk going outside either! But I'm the opposite I wouldn't dare keep chips int he house cause I can not control myself unfortunately they are my junk food weakness! dh is a fabulous massager actually! he regularly gives me 2 hour massages <insert drooling icon here> I am one very spoilt lady!

Milly I don't think vomiting will be too far away for me! I am feeling really sick yesterday and today it's a bit worse. I am wearing those sea bands which don't seem to be doing anything but then again maybe it would be worse if I wasn't wearing them Hon are you going to also join our belly buddy group due Sep1st-15th?

Smallfry ouch you sound like you are in the wars! my back has been sore, lumbar and thoracic, I get a chiro adjustment every week and I love them! I dont' know how anyone lives without chiro osteos are great too but regular chiro is a life saver.. It's a shame you don't like them much, have you seen a bad one in the past? They aren't all the same so maybe try a different one if you ever want to try out chiro again.

[Greenslw]

Cherished you are one lucky lady. My DH is a good massager but is always so tired.

Oh funny thing happened. I decided to brave the outside for a moment to hang out some washing and well DH phoned. Both my mobiles the house phone and my mum! At least he is concerned I guess. But I guess the lesson is I need to take my phone with me everywere.

Bubs is doing alot of stretching today, pressure on my bladder then just under my boobs, no kicks just pressure. It is the weirdest feeling, been going for 10 mins now, Might have to get off the pc chair and move.

Hi girls

Firstly, far out. Cherished - your here!!!! Congrats. I have only had a quick glance at the page that came up and saw your name. God knows who else has come in the past week. SOOOO HAPPY FOR ANYONE ELSE.

Well, my little boy Billy Alexander John Martin came into the world wednesday night 8:51pm weighing 1310 grams 41cms long at 29.2wks. Everything is going as good as can be expected. he has been breathing on his own since he came out (he came out crying and did a wee!) and has been moving ahead nicely. he is out of intensive care and in special care so that is great. he is feeding now every 2 hours and having 5 mls and that will be increased by 1ml every 6 hours. i have had 4 cuddles and changed 2 nappies and loving it. he is SOO tiny but there are much smaller babies here. true miracles. my waters broker sunday night and i managed to hold him in until wed which was great because i got to have 2 steriod shots for his lungs and that has helped him greatly. life is very overwhelming at the moment and i feel pretty good. my wonderful grandfather died sunday night too so i have had that and couldn't go to his funeral on thursday - the circle of life. i just wanted to let you all know. you are such a massive part of my life and i thank you all. i will be back in a few days to give you an update on my little man. he is unbelievable. he is my world. i can't remember my life before him. oh dear, i am starting to cry, think the day 3 blues are upon me so i'd better go. need to get back downstairs to hold his 9pm tube feed and then get some colostrum out again at 9:30. that is fun every 3 hours. love to you all. be good to yourselves and enjoy everyday those little bubbas are in your bellies. don't take one day for granted. i am so glad i never did. i loved everyday. love lots, zoe.
