Good luck for your scan Possum.
Mildez- At first I was thinking girl because of the m/s but after Saturday night, I started thinking boy. About 90% positive that I having a lil boy. I know my OB will try and sneak a peek at 16 weeks though since I'll be going somewhere that does 3D for the morph scan again.
Ferrals- I feel the same about down there lol. The time I waxed my legs was because I had let it go for a lil while and even then it was probably better off being shaved. Gross fact but back in the day, the midwives used to shave it for you. My now 89yr old Nana told me that one... I replied, bet Poppy loved that and the look on her face said it all LMAO!
AFM- completely regretting valentines dinner now. It has given me such bad bloating and OMG the gas *gag* I'm fearing everytime I backfire hahahahaha! I want a nap now, so tired aleady but it isn't even 8:30am yet. Also wish that I had a comfy bath so I can stay in there forever lol. It is the only place where I don't feel as sick.
A big HELLO to everyone here. I just realised I have not been on here for so so so long. For those of you who don't remember me, I joined this group last year. I am pregnant with twins. I really need to go through and catch up on where everyone is, haven't had a chance yet so no persies - terribly sorry.
Just a quick catch up on where I am. I am now 35 weeks, can you believe it? I really did not think I would get this far. So happy with myself and these gorgeous little bubs for holding on for so long. Next week (36wks) I get my stitch out of my cervix so I suppose anything can happen after that (if not before). FX I can get to or past the 36 week mark. That is now my goal. That about wraps it up for me at the moment.
Hope you are all well. I will do my best to catch up to where you all are.
Hi Hope and a big congrats on your bubs getting past 35weeks :D Not long before you get to meet them now
So much for being positive i can hardley get him to move today - going to go in and get him checked. I hope hes just having a quiet day :cry:
Kellbell - keep strong sweetie, sending you lots of hugs, hope you got some reassurance.
Dampyre - AWESOME - congrats on such a great scan. 5cm is excellent!! I am so happy for you and your happiness just jumps out of your post. Yay.
Mildez - I am with you - go the bush for labour. For the others preoccupied with it in all honesty, your bush not the focus of anyone's attention, it's about your baby and you, but if it makes you feel better to de forest, then do it. I always used to de forest before any ante natal appointments but then as the bump got bigger it was impossible. The midwife clipped me before the caesear and made some innane comment like " you almost broke my razor" ( little electric one thank god and not a blade razor). I was mortified at the time but now just laugh about it.
Reet - good idea about DH not working away as your EDD approaches and 4 weeks off is pretty good. You will probably be feeling more on top of things by then. You look awesome in your pics - thanks for the link. That is a NICE bump.
Possums - How did you go today? Holding my breath.
Alish - well congrats to your friend hey. And like you said, at least she wasn't lying.
Melster - glad you and DH met up, that's something. Keep strong.
Forshelby -loving you sis. Not much else to say - cause I need to go read and remember what you posted. Oh, I remember that you packed your bag and you're short of undies. TBH, I was worried about undies too, but in the end I just wore my old ones cause they were comfy and stretched and also then I didn't care if they got messy with stuff.....
Hope - OMG that is awesome about getting to 35 weeks. Stitch out next week.... could be action stations after that, or maybe not. Just depends how your little ones feel about it all. or maybe you'll get beyond 36 weeks. I found having the stitch out a bit uncomfy, my obs just did it at the hossy and I had to hang around for half a day after in case there was some action. I found when there was no action after the stitch I was disappointed. It was awesome to know I'd gotten to the point where it was ok if the baby came. It's way cool. A friend of mine has just had twins so if you need any support or tips I can give your number to her. She has been just an amazing mum, I am so much in awe of her.
Ferrals - gold star for your DH.... you are so funny -plucked chicken indeed. I am not sure I will eat roast chicken for a little while until I get that image out of my head. PML.
TegamM - hello there sweetie. Thinking of you and Miss Molly.
Well, went to the Obs today and all is ok for us to try again when we are ready..... had a really god discussion about the PIH/PE/HELLP & vbac/caesear. Of course the same precautions as last time, extra folic acid, rest, stitch, steroids, anti biotics..... But it's such a relief to know medically and physically it's all ok. I can't believe just how keen I am to try again. I so didn't expect that I would feel like that.
oh no one does personals like Dory... what can i say better...nothing, so :hello:
Dory: WOOHOO im so happy that you had a positive appointment. I cant wait to be your PIG again!!! Oh to read everything you will have to go through again...but i guess thats the power of a mothers love!
Hannah will love to have an earthside sibling. Like i said to you the other day, you deserve to have a pregnancy with the assurence that you really CAN do it!
Mwawahh - thanks T. Let's catch up next week? Not Wed... it's Amelia's angelversary and we're having a service, finally. I met someone IRL yesterday that I had met once before at a SANDS meeting, and then had been following their blog. She is so totally amazing, and to meet her was so unexpected and really made my day.
Mildez - AWESOME news about your appointment. Well done. Ah, I am a coastie, but believe in the bush... double meaning intended!
Dory thats so rude about the middy commenting on your bush. Apparently according to the midwives I work with its more common to de-bush around coastal areas but us bush pigs out in the sticks tend to keep the bush. I did mine about 3weeks ago (for DH) and might do it once more but I don't want to be bawled for the collegues and maybe they will help hide the veins lol. Wishful thinking anyway. When do you think you will ttc again? Thats such good news all is right to go when your ready.
I had my antenatl appointment today which went very well. Dr doesn't want to see me again until 36weeks. I'll be back to update but I had a scan which showed everything looks great.
Mildez-LOL what a way with words yes us coasties are pretty much bald.
Good news on the u/s i have mine tomorrow.
Tegam-do you mind letting this thread know when my little miss arrives i have your mob number can i text you when she is born and you let the girls here know for me cause i will be in hospital for a few days.
Dory-keen to try again how exciting glad its you and not me my family is complete after little miss figit bum makes her appearance i have had enough stress to last me a life time i just want her here to complete our family but i cant wait to follow your next journey to give hannah a brother or sister.
Kellbell-i had that a few days ago ella didnt move for a whole day and a half other than very light rolling movements then yesterday and today she has not stopped and OMG! my organs and ribs are paying for it.
Hey everyone...
Dory..i hope you have a lovely service on wednesday for Amelia. Thinking of you..wow thats great!! another little bubbies..
Kellbell...i really hope he is ok. Let us know..thinking of you
Hi hope..i hope you have a great last 5 weeks!!!
ATM..im wondering whether i go home tonight or not....so much to think about...but want to get my little girl home!!!!!! and all this stuff will not take a minute to fix....think maybe i will go home and get myself back on track and work through some of these things for the last time..give it one more go....
Im not sure what to do about the ex and the kids and CS......(cs i am going to fight them tooth and nail and not give up so that cow doesnt get a cent)............and all the constant drama....................but to see the look on my DD face when she saw her daddy for the first time in over a week yesterday was absolutely priceless!!!! and i want this for new baby...
melster - thanks... maybe you can write out a list of things that are bottom line for you... if DH does them, then write a list of things you;ll do and if he crosses the line, a list of things you'll do ( but if they are illegal don't put them on the list....) Sort of a way to help you get things straight in your head? Also maybe some lists of positives about DH and your rel and some things that could be better? Then work through and work out what really matters for you. I mean seriously if I wrote those types of lists intially it would be long. Of course it will take time to do the list... but well worth it to help clear your thoughts.
I know it's hard on DD but it's even harder on her to go back too soon and not be settled in your head and heart about how you feel and then go again. I know this means too much to you to just go about it half ass**. So honestly my advice? Give yourself some more time to actually sort through how YOU feel. If you are worried about DD, then maybe arrange some short periods of time frequently for her to see DH whilst you are working things out. Given her age short periods frequently will keep up the chance for them to remember each other. But honestly baby, right now when you've taken such a big step, as going to your mums, stick it out until you're satisfied with both how you feel and how DH is going. Of course you can't stay forever at your mums and still work on your rel.... I just don't get the sense from your posts that now is the right time for you.
Hope I haven't offended you by being too direct.... it's not usually my style.
Well back again to update on my scan. My Ob did my scan not a sonographer and said the placenta was now on the fundus extending down the posterior wall. I don't know how on earth it got there when it was suppose to be 16mm from the cervix only a month ago. Its literally walked 20cm! I didn't even think that was possible unless my anatomy is completely wrong (it wouldn't surprise me) Anyway bub is surrounded in a good amount of fluid (I was worried she wasn't) and despite me not feeling movements he said she was constantly moving and couldn't believe I couldn't feel it (I do have a chronic nerve problem) anyway I could see her moving around heaps during the scan and couldn't feel it so sounds like I have the problem (again I'm not surprised) anyway she looks very femine and oh so skinny. Poor little thing looks like she needs a steak when she comes out. Luckily I'm like a jersey cow so she should fatten up in no time. She is so long her spine especially looks super long just she looks so so skinny. I guess another 8weeks will make a huge difference and she could come out a whooper in that time.
Ferrals yes alot of midwives have said the coasties are bawled but I wouldn't know. I just know I was surprised when I saw my first one as a midwife as it had been so long since I'd been doing it before I saw one that was IYKWIM. But now I dont even notice. You only look when you have to (like watching progress or to see where your going for an examination briefly, assess bleeding etc)
Well on another note anyone thats feeling large and very pregnant you should see my DD's guinea pig. The poor little thing. She looks like she is about to explode. I feel for her. Her belly is on the ground and now she hardly walks around just lying there waiting I guess. It gives a new meaning to pregnancy thats for sure.
Ferrals goodluck with your scan tomorrow. I can safely give you several cms if that was possible. Hope the Ob will bring your op earlier if thats what you want.
Dory..no offence taken, and i know what you're saying. He cleared up a bit for me yesterday and we have probably talked more then and he showed more emotions..than we have in months or even years , But yes it is far from resolved..especially by all the external factors going on right now...
I wouldnt just go back for DD or the baby, but she is extremely unsettled at the parents and my dad has something wrong with him..either dementia or stoke or something to do with chest and he is forgetting everything and mixing up his words and he in a very depressive bad mood...and i dont think he is coping real well with us being there especially with DD being 2 and never stopping....lol... and I just want to go home...but i know that cant be a reason either.....i stayed at mums last night even though he wanted us to go home..and tonight i will be going back to mums because all my stuff is there..
Its such a hard one..i tell you my teeth are sore from stressing...you know what i would love to have right now....a couple drinks.....a champas, a baileys a vodka......yummmm.oh what i wouldnt give to be able to have a drink LOL LOL
Oh Ferrals :leap: for sure...does that make me a thread PIG :rofl: If only we'd known all those weeks ago at the start of this pregnancy that all would go so well! I know ill be in a mess when i read that text! Thank you for letting me share that with these girls!
Dory: Hoot i was going to sms you about a catch up! My mum heads over your way on one tuesday month/fortnight (it was today) so i thought i could drive her and meet up with you, my dad normally drives her (had her knee done) so im sure he would enjoy swapping one rather energetic 2yr old boy for my mum :rofl: Ill ask her the next few dates. I am so glad that you are having a service for Amelia, a bit overdue but these things take time. Will lite a candle for your beautiful girl!
Mildez: Scan sounds great. Miss Molly was skinny in all the scans, poor little thing. She was 3.1kg or 6p9oz born tho so not too bad. I am also a great cow and she put on 2kgs in the first 6weeks! It was a bit sad to see her so small on the scans (last scan was at 35weeks) but like i said, she puddied up quick!
Mel: No advice, just hugs.
Mildez-HOW DID YOU MANAGE THAT!!!! mine hasn't budged since 15 weeks and i dont think the last 2 weeks would have made a difference but i can always hope.
So good to hear your little miss is perfectly healthy did they say how much she weighed my little miss was 4lb two weeks ago and everyone is saying i am so tiny i hope my girl is growing ok.
Tegam-well i guess you are my thread PIG i have one for my belly belly thread and now here i did mention it to you a few pages back but you must have missed it.
Anyway thankyou so much for doing this for me you girls have ment so much to me through this whole journey i want you to share my news with the girls here.
He starting moving on the way to the OBs - got him checked anyway and his HB was perfect and he hasnt stopped moving since - cheeky little monkey boy.Now im watching a baby story and getting all emotional as they are having a little boy lucky jason isnt here or hed be laughing at my preg hormones running rampent :D
I have a scan in three weeks cant wait to see him again - i wonder how big he is. My friend was suppposed to have a 4kg+ baby last week according to her scan and she was 3kg born. Another girl i know earlier in the year was supposed to have a 7 pound baby and he was 10 pounds :o. i dont think they pick weight very well but i want to see his little face again
Ferrals - how is Mat leave going? was it strange not going to work this week. Thanks for your advice. i cant wait to read your BA its getting so close!
Melster i hope you sort it out with your DH. Its sounds so stressful. CS sounds down right awful. I hope she dosent get anything that she dosent deserve. Big:hug:
Look at your ticker go - you must be close to your 20 week morphology scan woohoo!!!!!
Dory - how exciting you want another baby cant wait to follow your journey again. How much of a gap do you want between them?
Will be thinking of you next week and will light a candle too for your Amelia
Tegam how is your Molly going is she a good baby?
Congrats dampyre on your awesome 12 week scan so happy for you. Have you got pics of your bubba to share?
Mildez - thats great you had a good appointment! and a good scan
