Congratulations Greenslw! Can't wait to hear more about the arrival of your little man.
H.P.L - Wow great results! Yay!
Smallfry - Getting close, won't be long now.
CONGRATULATIONS GREENSLW AND DH for the arrival of Lincoln - very dignified - :clap:
Hope your birth went well and if you need anything for healing post-birth - get someone to grab some:
[LIST] good quality lavender oil (augustifolia) - it is the healing one not just the nice smelling one;
10+ or more strength manuka honey (I have brought 20+ for myself/friends before)
- calendula infused oil - another strong healer and a great one for preventing nappy rash and healing up spots on bub;
All can be brought from the local health food store
Either yourself or partner can apply the three together - drip the lavender and calendula onto nether regions and gently smear the honey on with a clean utensil every time - this sticky mix is a godsend with grazes/tears/stitches and in helping to go to the loo - can be applied as many times as you need (after showers/baths is good) - it has an antiseptic as well as anaesthetic function - it is a favourite with homebirthing midwives and mums for its quick healing (we have a name for it but that might be a bit TMI :p) (helps to minimise scarring) :dance:
If bowel motions are an issue - pear juice (just the normal tin stuff from supermarket) every morning and evening for a few days will get that moving softly, gently and regularly following the birth - you can stay on that one for as long as you need as BF hormones will often keep constipation/hemaeroids (sp?) in the building for a while after
Hope you are enjoying every minute!!!! It is so wonderful to see you here - my typing is a bit dodgy - BFing Joss on my lap at the moment and he is a squirmer...;)
Much love to you and all the other wonderful women and their families here!!!!!

Hi Greenslw
Sorry - forgot the internal healing helpers!
You probably already know Raspberry Leaf tea will help with bleeding, lochia and iron recovery - but if you feel a bit strained and knocked about internally - Arnica pilules will help with bruising/swelling/strains - again the local Health Food store can help with those!
Cherished1 -thank you for the kind words - I appreciate the time taken to write them!
AFM - finally did a little album up of Joss' birth and a few family shots of the last couple of months in my BB Gallery -starting to see where grandparents get frustrated with me! :wall: BTW -first time mums - get scared when you start sourcing velvet butterflies for arty shots - Joss will not be thanking me on his 21st birthday,,,:rolleyes:
To all our ladies suffering ms and indigestion - my heart goes out to you - may it bring with it reassurance and a deep awareness of the little presence it signifies and may you feel a bond with your mums and women everywhere who have stoically walked this path into their initiation of motherhood
Much love
Karen van
Smallfryplus - wow, really not long now. Sorry that the BH are unpleasant. All for a good purpose! I have not been in your shoes, but I imagine it gets scary....... let me know how you're thinking and coping as the day draws near....
Karen Van - yeah, I like your use of the word stoically. Makes me realise I need to suck it up a bit more and not be suck a sooky.
Hi Dory
Don't feel you have to be too gung-ho ;) I remember many a time wailing over the toilet bowl as I tried to get ready for work and carting sad little cold pieces of Promite toast around to all my morning lessons until I could get up the courage to finish eating it!!! Some days that longer view was the only thing that got me out the door... :wall:
Have a great week!
Karen
Congrats Greenslw!!!! hugs to you and DH and Lincoln!!
smallfry - soon for you!! ;)
Karen van - I'm not enjoying my morning sickness per se, but everytime I throw up, it's reassuring that all is still going strong. I find that if I have a morning where I sleep in, it's not so bad, but then I get myself into a mild panic until I have thrown up - ahh nausea & vomiting becomes a welcome relief (how sick is that? LOL). Oh, and it has to happen at least 3 times a day to be reassuring!
AFM - scan yesterday, all good!! only one peanut, who is 16.9mm long & HR of 163 and very strong, I could see it really beating away!!! (not like last time at all, this really is going to happen!! YAY!!). According to my LMP I was 8w3d, and it measured 8w1d, but then I have a 26 day cycle so I'm pretty happy with that!! Estimated due date is 10th Sept.
all good, just really tired, and still eating crap (bread, bread, bread) washed down with lemonade or gingerbeer. mmm.... I'm, hoping that I will crave vegetables soon, as I'm worried that this little one is not getting the best diet at present.
But having said all of that, this really does feel different - I am bigger, huge in fact, and more sick than I have ever been, so all of that has got to be a good sign!
hi to all the other ladies!!
Hi Everyone, i'm new to your little group.
I found out last week that i'm UTD after i had a loss late last year it was picked up at my 12week scan that bubba had passed at 8weeks. I'm having a scan on Wednesday to confirm dates as my Dr & I have somehow come up with different dates.
So far this pregnancy is different to my pregnancy with DD & our angel so i'm trying not to be worried but its not easy when my pregnancy with my angel was a missed miscarriage.
I hope to get to know you all soon xox
Bonham - Congrats on your pregnancy and welcome!
Bonham welcome and congratulations on your pregnancy, looking forward to getting to know you too.
Hi all, it's been a couple of days since I've posted and you girls have been busy chatting!
Samllfry not long now at all!
:welcome: Bonham and thanks for replying to my other post, I will have my eyes open to see how your scan went on Wed too... Mine is at 1pm ;)
Greenslw how are you going hon, how's your little prince :stork-boy:
dory :rofl: plastic surgery on your OB's butt Teeehehehehheh
TwinSister what's going on with you hon?
Karen van 2 more beautiful posts from you... Great advise on aftercare birth, I've copied it and saved it to a word doc for future reference ;)
Milly my love, I jumped up and down about your scan in our bellybuddy thread but I don't mind doing it again :happyforyou: Such a great feeling isn't it!!!
eliselouise How is the ms? Have you been struck with the really bad wand or the not too bad wond?
AFM Some of you may have seen my post about not having symptoms again yesterday and I freaked out again :( I've decided to get a doppler I think and will chat with dh about it tonight, if all is wekk on Wed at my 9 weeks scan I will order one. I think if I can hear the heartbeart once or twice a week I will be much more relaxed! Of course it turned out I was a worry wort over nothing becuase today I am tired and nauseous again :rolleyes:
Bonham - WOO HOO!!! so glad to see you in here...i know it is so much easier said then done but try to just love this pregnancy, I've had a missed m/c and it is terrifying the following pregnancies but this is your little sticky bub
Greens - Congrats on the arrival of your baby!
Dory - yes, it has beena massive journey, mostly heartache. I had a due date on 11 Jan and it was not a sad day in any way, how could it be, to wish that bub to be here would be to wish Zen away. I am happy to be in the place i am now, it makes all the difference talking to women who have been in the same situation and to feel the new life growing inside you 9and I do mean growing - I am turning into a whale lol)
Hi to everyone...at work and busy but to tired to go online when I get home at the moment...struggling everyday for the last week.
AFM: as i said - so so tired! No chances for naps yet which is so frustrating. Getting BH contractions, not painful but uncomfortable. DH is amazed with how rock hard my belly gets. Still refusing to think of labour, Its a miracle bub that will just appear one day :)
Greenslw - I'm very slow I know LOL but congrats on the arrival of Lincoln :bluecheer: Enjoy your little man!
Cherished - My m/s was different with each pregnancy too :hug: Shocking with DD1, very little with my m/c and somewhere in between with DD2. It was also very on and off as well - freaked me out too! I'm sure everything is great with your bub, hope the scan goes well and yes get a doppler if that will help you :hug:
Hi everyone else and Karen, glad everything is going well with you :)
milly - really pleased to hear how well your scan went :) gives you that extra confidence to know that all will be well with this little bundle :)
bonham - welcome to the group and praying that you have a H&H pregnancy this time round and that all will be just perfect for you!
cherished - glad you're feeling ill again. I hope it keeps up for you!! lol seems weird every time I wish illness on someone in here but I completely understand the reasoning behind it!
tinar - I'm loving watching your ticker moving along. It's great everything is going so well for you!
megsmum & karen van good to see you in here too. Karen thanks for the info on aftercare. Been there twice but somehow find that I've forgotten all about that sort of thing!
AFM - saw my ob this morning. 37 weeks tomorrow. I had bloods taken again to check antiD and vitD and also had my antiD jab. Ob guesses baby's weight at 9lb2oz. When I told her how long my first two were (54 & 52 cm each) she said prob bub would weigh less and is mostly length but stuck by her weight guess anyway. Time will tell at any rate but it's always interesting to see how accurate the doc is! As always, loved to hear the heardbeat :)
Yesterday was our baby shower. My sis organised it and we made foam animals. Sis drew templates for us of different cartoon animals (she's very talented with drawing - unlike me!) and then we built them up out of different coloured foam and now I have to attach them to a mobile and have a pretty awesome baby mobile made by all my girlfriends! Pretty good fun had by all. Hubby hung around for it and I think he even had fun being here for it.
This week we're going to do the belly cast. I'm changing shape as baby is dropping so even though I'm getting bigger still, I'm figuring bub will either crack the cast or not look like a 'proper' preg belly! lol (I know, go figure how a MASSIVE belly could possibly not look like a proper preg belly!)
Off to do baked potatoes for dinner with coleslaw and garlic butter and cheese and sour cream and corn and avocado and and and... now I'm drooling!!!
Belly rubs to all!! Keep up the growing!
Smallfry WOW 37 weeks ooh not long now, how exciting. Sounds like you had a great baby shower yesterday and i too am drroling at the sound of your dinner YUM!!
Tina glad to hear things are going well, hopefully the BH dont get too bad and you can start to get some more rest soon. Before you know it little zen will be here and you wont even get a chance to think about labour hehe.
Cherished glad to hear your feeling ill again (as yucky as it is). My ms isnt really bad but bad enough and just when i thought it was gone last week, its back again this week. The doppler sounds like a good idea, ive been thinking about getting one too as it would make me so much more relaxed. Good luck with your scan on wednesday.
Anyway better get going, off to work and not looking forward to it at all.
Take care
Hello Ladies,
Well I'm back :wiggle: I got a BFP on friday last week but when my hcg came back at 19 I was scared it was another chem. pg like last month. Hcg was up to 40 yeaterday so it's doubling the way it should but I'm still too scared to get excited. Can't even get myself to put it on my signiture. I know I'm not going to feel secure in this or any pg until I'm quite far along given my history but my first milestone will be my 6 week scan. That seems so far even though its just a week and a half away!
Greenslw- Congratulations on your bouncing baby boy :bluecheer:
Smallfryplus- so excited that there is going to be more baby news in just a few short weeks.
So glad to be back with all my other belly buddies.
Sunbeam so glad to see you back hun. Hopefully your stay here is a nice long one this time, i have a good feeling for you :)
Great to see you again Sunbeam,im glad you stayed on the TTC train! :dance:
All aboard! *toot* *toot*
OMG sunbeam that is amazing news!!! Congratulations :happyforyou:
megsmum thanks for your reasuring words hon, todya I dry reached in teh morning so I'm feelin ghappier lol
Smallfryplus You are so close to having your bub! And you have got me droling over your dinner too heheh
eliselouise I'm not sure if I'll get a doppler now??? Apparently you really shouldnt' use them until after 12 weeks and I think I'll be pretty relaxed after the 12 week mark so I don't know????
Hi to everyone else
AFM I've got my 2nd scan tomorrow at 1pm and I simply can't wait!
Sunbeam - that's awesome news about your HCG.. hope you get to stay with us for another 30 more weeks :p
cherished1 : Good Luck with your scan :D hope it goes well
Hello to everyone else.. Sorry if I've missed ppl
Waiting for our first scan still, I can't get in to see anyone for another 2 weeks, it's so hard with my job and my DP late hours, I want him to be there with me....
Have to ask a question ladies, I keep getting really dull aches in my lower left side, my DP keeps saying it's the baby growing don't worry, but I'm me, and I can't help but over think things sometimes.. Have any of you experienced this? It feels like period pains but not as bad, nothing to make me worry normally expect for the fact that I'm pg... :doh:
Sunbeam - glad to see you posting in here again so soon! It's such an encouraging result. sticky vibes being sent by the truck load for you.
HPL -- lots of aches and pains associated with early preg in particular with your uterus settling in and starting to stretch. I had aches in a very specific spot on one side for weeks early on and was worried it might be something I didn't want it to be. In the end I concluded that it must be the site of implantation but I have no idea if that was correct or not! Count down to your scan! How exciting!! Shame you can't get it done sooner but I'm quite sure that the wait will be worth it!
Cherished - good luck with your scan tomorrow! Hehehe I just noticed your due date! I love it! 8 9 10 :) Not sure what I can say about getting a doppler. I've known a number of people who have gotten them, some it helped, some it didn't. Sometimes you can't find the heartbeat because of where the baby is lying, those were the times it seems to have been the most stressful.
sunny - hey I think you're next after me to drop your bundle! It seems weird to be waiting on my own birth now! Surely I'm not really next????!!
AFM today I made a last minute decision and side tracked myself in a chinese massage place. One reflexology massage and a million braxton hicks later, my feet feel so beautiful and I am a lot more relaxed. I saw posted somewhere that a reflexology massage set off BH in someone somewhere... I can vouch for that! I find myself wondering if there's a specific spot and if that spot would prompt labour... I feel a research project coming on for the evening.
My beautiful DD1&2 are both at a new school this week. DD2 just starting prep so two big girls at school now. It seems only yesterday that they were pushed out. DD1 worries that when I have this one I will get to see her less (I share custody). I had to reassure her that will absolutely not be the case but it did hurt that she's been given that idea somehow.
I stuffed myself senseless on baked potato this evening. Somehow it didn't happen last night and I ended up with crackers and cheese and a shocking case of indigestion. Tonight it absolutely had to happen and man, was so good I couldn't stop myself and now I'm so full I feel like I'm bursting!
Sunbeam - that is just wonderful news!!! :leap:
I am SOOOOOOO happy for you! :happyforyou:
I am also sending :stickyvibesgirl: :stickyvibesboy: your way!!
Sorry ladies, was just so excited for Sunbeam that I didn't say hi or anything!!
Smallfry - mmmmm baked potato .......
HPL - I am having "pulling stretching but gee it feels like AF pains and scares the bejeezes out of you" pains too :hug:
Cherished - good luck tomorrow!
hi to everyone else, and thanks for the congrats on the scan :grouphug:
AFM - Just something I thought I would share ...
yesterday was milestone number 1 (ie point of Angel #2)
I celebrated by spending half the day with my head in the toilet! :rofl:
tomorrow is milestone number 2 (ie point of Angel #1), which I think will call for a similar celebration!
milly - that is so good that you're through such major mental milestones. And I love the attitude towards it as well, keep it up xox Not long now and you'll be feeling movement inside!
Thanks for the lovely welcome ladies.
My scan is tomorrow @2pm, i'm trying to think positive. My angel passed around 8weeks so between now and my 12week scan will be the hardest time for me.
:bellyrubs: all around and lots of :hug:'s too
Bonham is your scan with your OB or at an x-ray place with a sonographer? My 7 week scan was with the OB and then I went to the GP and asked for a referral to have a scan so I get to have one tomorrow aswell. My 1st mc the bub stopped growing at 8 weeks 3 days so I knew I would not be able to relax and just have a 12 week scan after the 7 week one. Maybe you could do the same? Goodluck tomorrow, can't wait to see good news in your post!
HPL I have only just started to feel sensations down in the uterus area etc, really only over the last 4 days I think. It's pretty normal from what I hear
Smallfry I know how cool is my due date! :p
milly love you celebration style hon :sick:
cherished: my scan is at the local ultrasound place, my dr is my OB but doesnt have a ultrasound machine in his office as he works at the local medical centre. Got to love small towns. I cant remember if my dr wanted to see me after my scan or not d'oh, maybe i'll ring the receptionist once i've been to my scan, i guess it wouldnt hurt to ask for another scan around 10weeks just to put my mind at ease. Goodluck to you too :hug: what does HPL mean? i've never seen that before.
bonham - goodluck with your scan tomorrow too :) two in one day with news of scans :) woohoo! (HPL is user Hope.Positive.Love - we get lazy in here and abbreviate)
LOL Yes we can get a little lazy in here :shhh: hehhehe:
Good luck today Bonham!
AFM Oh My goodness I'm totally excited to have logged on today to see that under my name it says Platinum Member 2010 RAK Recipient x 2! THANK YOU so much who ever your are! :hug: WOW what an amazing feeling xoxoxo
cherished - that's lazy in a good way :) It indicates a level of comfortableness (is that a word!) that we can nickname each other further than our already provided nicknames!! Good luck with your scan this afternoon and congrats on the RAK!
Me? I'm off for osteo and then lunch with some girlfriends and then after work this afternoon DH is doing my belly cast!! I'm really excited about that.
Sunbeam - hooray! Congratulations and welcome back! Sending you lots of sticky vibes!
HPL - I keep getting dull aces in my lower left side too. I had them so bad yesterday (along with a tiny bit of spotting) that I would have started freaking out had I not been throwing up all morning. Today thankfully everything has settled down. I think it's from the pressure of everything growing and stretching.
Smallfry - have fun doing your belly cast. I never had one BH with DS (well not one i could feel anyways) so I can't even imagine what they must be like.....why am I suddenly craving baked potato?
Cherished - glad to hear you are feeling sickly again (in the nicest way possible of course)
Bonhom - I live in a small town too so I know what it's like. All of our doctors work in one huge medical building and all scans are done over at the hospital. Here my doctor only wants to see me after scans/tests if the results are suspect. If everything is fine his nurse just calls to let me know all is well.
Milly - yay for passing your milestones!
Hi to everyone else that I've missed. There were a lot of posts to catch up on.
AFM - Just plodding along. I thought M/S had gone and tried to wean myself off my anti-nausea meds but it did not go well. I could not keep any food down yesterday and could barely get off the couch. Went back on them today and am feeling much better.
Had a bit of a scare yesterday with some tummy cramps and spotting but I think it may have been from throwing up so violently, as today all has settled down.
Hi Girls
Thank you all for the lovely welcome back, i missed you.
Smallfryplus- I had very definite pains in one spot to and still get them from time to time so it will be very interesting at scan time to see it that is where bub is implanted.
Milly-I can totally understand that it must feel so good to pass those milestones I know I will feel the same just to get to 8 weeks will feel a relief.
Cherished- I hope today's scan is awesome.
Twin sister- I might be need to know more about these MS meds soon though the ginger beer is doing the trick at the moment. The fun bit is when I feel sick and starving at the same time!
Hi :hello: everyone else
AFM-I'm still pretty calm about things though i did wake in the night and could not get back to sleep for an hour with my head buzzing with baby thoughts. I have pg yoga tonight so that will help me relax even more, I love it we do heaps of meditation.
I had huge baked potato on monday night must be something in the air!!! :lol:
My friend had a dream last night that she drew a picture of my baby growing inside me and its aura was yellow going into purple. She had her little hands up under her chin. It sounded so beautiful.
Bonham can't wait to hear how your scan went!
My scan was unbelievable!!! We saw much more than I thought was possible, the little spine, a strong heartbeat 176bpm! measuring the right size etc bubs even moved around a little bit and my heart just melted :inlove: It really feels like I am having a bub now! And to make this day even more wonderful I logged this morning to find that I've been RAK'ed twice :loveshower: If you are in this thread thank you so much for a warm and fuzzy feeling that has filled my heart with so much love and gratitude :hug:
glad to see the love is spreading with baked potatoes!! hehehe
cherished - awesome scan results there! You sound like you've just won lotto! Good to see!
twinsis - great to see your update. Scary with the spotting but it's really encouraging to have stopped and yeah, probably is due to the ms. Hope that subsides for you!
sunbeam - a great ms med is blackmores morning sickness vitB and ginger tablets. Hope it kicks in for you soon!!
bonham, looking forward to hearing about your scan.
Hi ladies,
i need to process what happened at my scan before i can post about it, sorry.
xox
Bonham08 - sweetie big hugs.... you are stronger than you know.
TwinSis - sorry to hear about the ms. My GF's ob reckons the sicker the better, so maybe that's something? what meds are you on? has the weather warmed up yet for you?
Subeam - good to see you in here! And that you are have a sense of calm at the moment. Hope those levels go through the roof.
Cherished - reading your post about your scan is exactly what I needed to hear - the pure excitment in your post is something I needed today - so thanks for sharing.
To everyone else, I am feeling a bit too self absorbed today to really say too much and give many persies. I enjoy reading your posts. Milly and the others approaching their milestones, good luck. It does help with your confidence to reach them. H&H g to you all.
AFM - Yesterday arvo I thought I was going to rejoin TTCAMCAL, as I had bleeding and passed some clots, one of which was a fair size. I was convinced I was having a m/c, as I have never had bleeding this early before, and not with clots, and any bleeding I have had has always lead to mc. I rang my ob and made an urgent appointment for me to come in yesterday arvo. Anyway, much to my surprise and delight I got some news I didn't expect - bubs was ok, the heartbeat was good and everything else looked ok. It was such a relief. I am at home now for a few days as the ob said it was better to take it easy. I was feeling quite positive after the appointment and this morning, and thankful that in this moment right now I am pg and it appears healthy No guarantees especially with my history, but I had found some peace. This afternoon.... not so much. No more bleeding, or if there is its brown old stuff and there is very little of it. It's probably just very light spotting. But I just have a very real sense of foreboding and I am frightened and there is nothing I can do. I know what will be will be, I am just frightened. And because this blip has occurred a different time to previously, and given it is so early in the pregnancy 7 weeks today, the odds are not in my favour. I am normally a pretty positive person but this afternoon, geez, this is hard stuff. Despite my best efforts I keep remembering what it was like when I miscarried most recent twin pregnancy, with Nicholas at 14 weeks and Sophie 4-5 weeks later at 19 weeks. it's pretty hard not to feel sorry for myself and not to be hypersensitive and hyper vigilant to any twinges, changes in my MS, which there has been some.... anyway.......
There are some positives. And for those of you who know me from elsewhere, I feel so blessed to have my ob. He and his staff always make time for me. Always. It's nice to have confidence in your ob and to actually respect them as a person. I am just on the edge of a very dark place and I don't want to fall into it right now.
I feel like a baked potato too - thanks small fry plus.No really, thankyou what a good idea and what good comfort food.
Hi all,
I have been MIA lately as I have come to the big smoke for work so I don't have access to a computer (except at work and I don't want to get busted).
Cherished - It is great to hear all of your encouraging news - so excited for you and your sticky bean.
Bonham - :comfort: take your time to process your news - one day at a time.
Sunbeam - :happyforyou: great to see you back here so quickly :pray: for a sticky one this time - funny I do things like not creating a ticker too early so I don't jinx myself!
Dory - so glad you are still with us! - everyday is another one closer to the magic safe mark!
Twin sis - m/s sucks - take the meds if you have to (better then pucking all day!)
ATM - I have my viabiltiy scan tomorrow at 8:30am and I am stressed to the max about getting more bad news (last time we found out there was no baby at the 12w scan). I am really hoping to see a heatbeat - fingers crossed! Not sleeping very well and busy at work - going on holidays for about 10days tomorrow so I am really hoping for a positive scan so I can enjoy it. Ms comes and goes but I am yet to spew so it's not that bad.
Chuckie - thanks for the cheer up. Sorry to hear you're so apprehensive but can understand why.... where are you going on hols? My due date is 23 Sept according to the ob, so 7 weeks to the dot today. We are not that far apart. I am thinking of getting myself a ticker, but I still post a lot in the TCCAMCAL threads and i don't know how to turn them off....
Smallfry - those baked potatoes are cooking and sending out a fantastic aroma as I type.....
Bonham :comfort: Oh I hope everything turns out ok :pray: I will be thinking of you big hugs my friend :hug:
dory I am happy that I have brightened your day. It sounds scary what you have been through and I hope everything is ok... It does seem like it is from your scan and many woman have bleeding so I hope you are just one of those :hug:
Chuckie I hope you get a chance to drop in and let us know how your scan goes before heading of on your holiday you luck devil ;)
dory - hon, I am so thankful that your ob is such a great doctor. There's nothing like having confidence in someone like that and, under the circumstances, it could be what makes all the difference for you. Very good news that the scan showed up a healthy bub for you. :pray: that it stays this way for you this time. After so much heartache, it's time for some happiness. Enjoy those baked potatoes!! (ps. you turn the signature off by unchecking the 'show your signature' box below the window you type your post in)
bonham - :hug: I hope that you are ok. Take your time to process what has happened and know that whatever it is, we are here to support you however we can whenever you are ready.
chuckie - all the best with your scan in the morning, I hope you see that heart beating strong and loud :hug: hope to hear from you afterwards but if not, have a fantastic holiday! Relax and revive.
Another update from me... we did the belly cast. It's quite awesome. It also scares me how huge I actually have gotten in the stomach area. Perhaps it will be a huge huge baby afterall!
Sunbeam - The particular MS meds I am on are sadly only available in Canada, but I remember reading about one that you guys have. If the MS gets bad talk to your Dr. Hopefully you won't get it too bad.
Cherished - glad your scan went well!
Bonham - Oh no, hope the news wasn't anything serious!
Dory - The medicine I'm on is called Diclectin. It's apparently a mix of vitamins and antihistamines....sounds funny to me but boy does it help! As for temperature it's been sunny the last few days but still quite chilly. How about you guys, has it cooled off there yet? Sorry to hear you had some scary bleeding, I'm glad to hear that the baby was ok though and that the bleeding has settled down. I had 3 bleeds with my DS and now I've had 3 with this one. I know how scary and stressful it is, I have everything crossed for you that all goes well for you and this baby sticks. I know it's really hard but try to stay positive and get as much rest in as you can.
Chuckie - good luck with your scan tmorrow, I hope all goes well!
Smallfry - Are you going to paint anything on your belly cast?
Not much going on with me. My DS has decided this week that running away from mommy in public is a great big fun game and he is really exhausting me. I don't have the energy or the patience to chase after him and I don't know how to get him to stop and listen to me. It's soooo dangerous! He used to be really good but I guess I'm going to have to start using his monkey backpack/harness.
