Forshelby - can't help.. i know pregnancy plays havoc with so many things, so why not skin... maybe it's some weird stretch mark? glad you're feeling ok though. I am sooo bummed that I don't get to see you tomorrow.... :P
Cheshire - well done! Great scan news.
Stoked - good to see you! I get lost all the time... not sure why.
KIT - sneaking in, way to go. Happy one calendar month to Sam - this time one month ago, you your enjoying day 1 newborn cuddles. How cool is that?
Tegam - hugs my sweet.
India's mum - ha glad you're feeling sick again.. LOL. Seriously it's the only time of your life someone will ever say that to you and it's a good thing. Take care.
Ferrals - hope that placenta gets a move on... can you please let me know when you hear from Murray? I've checked the BA's and there's nothing. I am just hoping she is enjoying her blissful babymoon.
Dampyre - proud of you for announcing and just having the confidence to be you.
Kell - congrats on 30 weeks and yukko about work.
Melster - how are you doing?
Hmm, I know I logged on to do stuff other than be on BB but now I can't remember what. Blah.
Dory - Awww, that's so cute. Don't feel bummed, we're going to have a little mothers group meeting once bubby is here and I've got the hang of things, so to speak. I'm looking forward to a MASSIVE slice of cake once this GD isn't an issue.
lets go there - I love the smell and taste of choccie but don't actually eat it that often... anyway, off to bed for me... I think I'll be up later tonight... hehe. No sleeping through here and I will pay for this late night tomorow. sweet dreams my dear.
So hot and uncomfortable i have given ella her eviction notice she has 17 days until im 37 weeks and that is the day she needs to vacate mummy is to uncomfortable with a bub under her ribs i cant breath i cant sleep i cant bend over OMG being at the end of your pregnancy in summer is YUK!
Kit - me too, would lode to see your little bundle of joy.
Ferrals - I was just thinking, it must be horrid in this heat to be at the end of a pregnancy... just came back from my friends baby shower.. she is inbetween you and forshelby.... one of the games on offer was taste the food in the nappy.... I wasn't in the mood to be tasting baby food, but I stuck my nose in every one and sniffed up big.
Angel - poor Honor - it's so hard when they're up all night... we had the reverese in our house last night. I had insomnia again... Hannah had a pretty good night, but it just happened that when she woke up, I had only just gotten to sleep. Just bad timing. For Hannah's supplement feeds we use Nan HA Gold 1 + it's supposed to be hyperallergenic and easier to digest. It is based on cows milk though. Did a Dr diagnose an allergy? You could always try a soy based formula - that avoids both lactose and cows milk, which can be problematic, but some babies are allergic/intolerant to soy too. In Aus, at least, if a Dr prescribes one of those formula's ( lactose free or soy) for health reasons, you get it a whole lot cheaper than off the shelf at the chemist or supermarket. Not sure if it's the same in the USA, but worth a try to save $. The thing that surprised me was just how much lactose is in breast milk.
AFM - well there was one HPT left in the cupboard and it was burning a hole in my mind, so I took it this morning....... had a little surge of nausea last night and thought to myself woot woot. BFN. Ahhh well. It had an expriy date of 28 Feb 2011 so just as well I used it up. It was wistful thinking..... belly rubs. Sorry no more persies. silly cat woke me up from my nap, chasing something around the bed. Then I had a vision it was a big fat spider that was going to run up the side of the bed. Eeek, No sleeping after that vision.
Ferrals - I can only imagine how hot and uncomfortable you feel. Ella will be born at the right time though. The weather is milder with beautiful days.
Dory - I didn't realise you were trying again already. That's very exciting. I definitely regret waiting till DD was 12 months before we started trying again.
AFM - I should have complained about the MS coming and going. It was back with vengeance and I spent most of the weekend in bed.
Dory - Sorry to hear of the bfn Thanks for the advice on SRC pants, id never heard of them so i have been having a lovely time researching them! Sound awesome, pricey yes but may just be worth it!
Ferrals - fingers crossed that placenta gives wriggling over!! Gosh you havent got long til you meet baby ella! im so excited for you guys!
Kit - 1 mth already! Wow! How is it all going?
Forshelby - how you feeling lovely? Getting so very close now! There is restaurant in Melb too that serves only choc, ive never been there but think i will make sure i do in the next few weeks! Mmm! Cant get enough choc!
KellBell - Congrats on the 30wk milestone!!
Afm - not much to report, DH and I went shopping today and bought a porta cot and a few more maternity clothes for me! Had a little look at prams and nappy bags! Its all so exciting, i could scream! Anyway just had a lovely bath and now im gunna watch some trashy tv and have an early night... boo for the w/end being over already! Catch you all tomorrow xx
sorry ladies this is a all about me post again, first of all I hope everyone had a great week end and all you lovely ladies are doing well in here.
I just wanted to let you all know it is looking like it's my time to wish you all well on your happy journies of pregnancy and the births of your little bundles of joy. I was taken into the Grafton Hospital Saturday afternoon with Gall Stone pain again, they gave me 2 panadene forte and sent me home for the night I was to go back in this morning to have an ultra sound to check bub after having a little bit of spotting on Friday after going to the loo, nothing that needed a pad at all it was just old brown blood and it only happened the once. Anyhow I had my ultra sound this morning to have a look at bub and also to check my gall bladder, they found a gall stone and they also found bub has no longer got any sign of a heart beat. So I am going in my GP tomoro morning hopefully first thing, to have it all confirmed by her that bub has passed I am hoping that they will let nature take it's course with me like last time and I won't need a D&C but most of all I am praying that I will wake up and find it has all just been a horrible night mare. Both DF and I are totally devastated and we will wait and have everything confirmed before I break my DDs heart yet again in telling her this bub has also passed on. Thank you to each and everyone of you for all the support you have all given me over the past 8 weeks of my wonderful journey of being pregnant, I loved every second of my pregnancy and at this stage neither myself nor DF can find a reason to put ourselves through all this heartache again, but maybe things may change for us in the future.
Sorry for the all about me post but I just had to say good bye and thank you to you all and wish you all the very very best to each and everyone of you.
Love all you ladies.

Hi Girls! Once again i have left it too long so this is going to be a looong post!
Damprye- Yay for announcing on fb! I hope there hasnt been any negativity and if there has... DELETE!
Alish- Ooooh only a few days til u hit the magic 12 week mark! Woohoo! Did u get ur bt done? What day is ur scan??
T-Hopes- Hows ur back??? And a big woohoo for doing some more baby shopping!! Ur alot more organised then i am! Oh and im glad im not the only waxer here.. i honestly cant imagine not getting a brazilian done.. i wld hate to have to maintain it myself! I actually started a thread on braz waxing.. it turned out to be pretty funny! https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...rrrrrr-146904/
Clairesmummy- Hope the weekend wasnt too bad and that u have a safe trip home.
Mildez- Hows things with dh?? improving?? Hope u got some well deserved rest this weekend.
Hi Tegam!
Kell- Woohoo for us being the BIG 30 WEEKS!!! 3/4 down, just a quarter to go!! Its very very exciting. Lets hope time goes quickly!
Ferrals- I cant believe u might be able to have a vag. birth! That is excellent news! But if not atleast there shldnt be any complications since ur placenta has moved off the cervix. And 17 days! Yay! Will u be doing the castor oil trick this time if u can have a vag. birth??? I will be so tempted to do it.. but i just dont think i'd be able too!
Dory- Oh how exciting that u are ttc already!!! Little HB must be a little angel for u to be wanting to so soon! Im hoping there isnt too much of a gap between ours.. im just a bit worried about how im going to cope with one tho! Sorry to hear of ur bfn.. its going to be hard since u havent had an af yet.. i know after my m/c i went thru about 50 hpts hoping i was pg! Wishing u all the luck in the world for ur ttc journey!
Melster- How was ur weekend?? Are u feeling a bit more positive now?
Cheshire- Woohoo for hearing and seeing that beautiful little hb!!! U need to make a ticker!
Forshelby- Hmmm have no idea what ur weird spots cld be?! Are they still there?? I really cant believe u are SO CLOSE to popping!!! U are full term tomoro hey! I think 37 wks is considered full term?! When is ur next drs appointment??
Angelfish- Aww poor little Honor.. hope u can find a better formula for her.
Hi Kit! Little Sammy is one month old! Wowee! Bet the things he does get cuter and cuter everyday!
Indias mum- I hope ur m/s has started easing off again and u had a good book to read since u had to spend the weekend in bed!
Hi to anyone i have missed!
AFM- Had a kinda busy weekend.. scrubbed some more walls.. it makes the biggest difference having clean walls! I just sit down and admire them! I cant wait til i can walk thru our whole house and just see that everything is clean all around me! I also mowed our lawn.. what a mission that is! I ended up with blisters on my hands cos the grass was so long and difficult to get the mower thru it! DH isnt home for another week tho so it really had to be done... i love looking out and seeing it all mowed tho.. it makes it all worth it!
Now who wants to hear what my latest little panic attack is over?! I just havent been able to get it out of my head today that something is going to be wrong with our baby when its born. Im so over this worrying business! I feel like i get over one fear for another one to just pop up! Its neverending! I have really started worrying that i have breathed in too many chemicals during this pregnancy. I havent had that much exposure to chemicals but i have cleaned the bathroom and toilet etc. weekly and done a few other bits and pieces. Or what happens if there is a chromosomal problem with our baby. This is going to sound really really awful but i dont know if i cld handle having a child with a disability. I have a cousin with cerebal palsey and so does dh. He also has a step brother that is severely disabled. Dh has about 15 cousins with perfect little kids.. i just keep thinking what happens if we are the 'chosen' ones to go down the disability path. Im sorry if i am offending anyone.. i know its terrible of me to have these thoughts Im sure i wld love our baby regardless and learn ways to manage but i just want a healthy little baby.
Its so frigging ridiculous of me to be thinking like this.. everything has been perfect so far.. and this little baby hasnt stopped kicking around all day.. its like its trying to reassure me that everything is going to be ok! Hopefully i can get over this little fear quicksmart! Sorry to be a downer. I will wake up more positive tomoro i promise!
Oh clairesmummy... im sorry i just saw ur last post. I am so so so sorry to hear... that is devastating news Im not sure what to say... gosh theres not much anyone can say to make it any easier. Pls know we are all here for u. xxxxxxx Will be thinking of u and ur family over the next few days, take care x
oh no Clairesmummy i dont have any words at the moment i am devestated for you and your family. I dont want you to have to go its not fair :-(
Will be thinking of you too at this awful time we are here whatever you need
xoxoxox
Thank you Reet and Kell, I am just gutted right now and totally distraught. Everytime I look at my DD and DF I burst into tears. I have just started getting a few cramps now as I type so I'm guessing the ultra sound is right and bub has passed. Thank you again for all your support and good luck with the birth of your adorable little bundle hun.
I'm looking forward to a MASSIVE slice of cake once this GD isn't an issue.
