[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.

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.

zstar I just popped over from our belly buddies group and wanted to congratulate you again and wish you all the best - Billy sounds like a real trooper and it's so great to hear he's moving along nicely Look after yourself and keep us posted if and when it's possible

A big hello to everyone else also!! I have been lurking for a long time and trying to keep up to date with everyone, and it's great to see so many doing well and joining in

[Cherished]

Oh Zstar you are so beautiful thinking of me when you clearly have so much going on, you are amazing and WOW little Billy does sound like he is doing extremely well being born so early, as you say he is a little miracle. I look forward to updates and I am also very sorry that you had the loss of your grandfather at the same time, you seem to be coping even though it is surely overwhelming. Chat soon xoxoox

Congratulations zstar on the arrival of little Billy Well done and glad to hear is doing well, and big to you too for the loss of your grandfather.

Enjoy your little miracle boy

HI Ladies,

Zstar - congrats on Billy's arrival. He sounds like a miracle and a fighter! You are both in my thoughts. And your words were just beautiful, brought a tear to my eyes!

Any vommies yet Cherished?

Greenslw - sounds like you gave your family a panic attack! oops!

thanks for the welcome cantwaittobeamum!

Tanya - I hope you are doing OK,

AFM - just a bit of a concern or feeling I am having -
I can't seem to get it out of my head to "expect" a m/c. Everytime I go to the loo I am checking for blood on the paper (Angel #2 I bled for a week before actual m/c). It's not that I want to see it (NO NO NO), but that well, if it's going to happen, I would rather it happen now, if that makes sense. Sort of like when TTC and you know that AF is coming but you just want the cow to start so it will be over with (when you really don't want her to come at all?). I know it's being irrational, because I don't even have any syptoms at the moment or anything to lead me to believe I will have a m/c, just that horrible fear. Does that make sense or do I sound like a looney?

[Cherished]

Tanya hon I hope you are feeling better soon, not too much longer and the 1st tri will be over and hopefully your MS will be getting better too than you can relax a little more and really start to enjoy your pregnancy. I feel the same about the mc's around a the moment and I really had to stop my brain getting carried away with myself hence this thread is such a great reminder that you can have a healthy baby. Hang in there, I'm sure you will be fine

Smallfry you must be boiling!!! how are you going in the heat Greenslw?

Zstar hope you and bubs are still doing well xo

AFM feeling sick, had acupuncture today and got extra herbs for MS plus a mini needle which stays in my ear, I can rub it whenever I feel sick and it does it's magic, let's hope it at least stops me from vomiting....

[Greenslw]

Wliselouise share away hun it helps

Smallfryplus I know I know funny what a month and a few sore spots makes a huge difference.

Cherished hmmm I wonder if acupunctue would work on my belly pain?

Tanya me tooo. Enjoy good sleep it doesn't last!

Well I'm not coping today. Thank goodness for weekly ob appointments. I did NOTHING today and I'm still so sore. My ob said that if I rested it would stop LIER!!!!!!!! I can't even get in the car without wincing so Mum is driving me to ob to meet dh tomorrow and I hate being so helpless.

I've been googling my symptoms but nothing, which isn't makeing me feel any less anxious about it. It's not like Braxton hix more like I'm bruised from the inside. I wonder if Squeak is to blame?

Hopefully I fall asleep alittle earlier tonight 2am sleep 1 hour intervals and then wide awake at 8am! I still think I'll get more sleep when bubs is out. come soon little one.
