Okay Okay, I NEED to login several times a day, clearly, if I ever want to keep up and avoid posting these novel sized replies. I won't be mad if you skip my rambling and just read your own persies, ladies........ hahaha, I've been typing for a good half hour here!
Ferrals - LOL, every day?? I can barely manage to shave my legs once in 3 weeks..... it's sooo hard to reach and so uncomfortable. Not to mention trying to get up and down from the floor of the shower. The last time I did any maintenance 'down there', I was so panicky I'd cut myself doing it 'blind'. How the heck do you manage it? Is there a special trick I don't know about? LOL I can't believe I'm asking you this. I just read a bit further and I'm intrigued by this 'nair'? Is it a depilatory cream? is it good?
Melster - Ughhh, cs. Stay strong, and fight for what's right. Same goes for the situation with your DH. I know it's not easy but try to relax as much as you can.
Damprye - Heh...... I suppose if I don't manage to get around to it before the birth, nobody is going to say 'OMG, she didn't trim the hedges.....' at least not to my face anyway. :redface: WOOHOO for a great scan! I'm so excited for you. Sorry about the 'backfiring' though, LOL. Hilarious.
Possum - u/s
Reet - LOL, we're just making sure we cover everything! So true about not needing many friends, DP and I are definitely best friends, and put eachother first before anyone else. About mum, yeah she sounds almost normal atm.... but I know what she's like. This might sound awful, but the only thing she was ever good at was throwing cash at a situation to fix it. As much as I appreciate the help, I find unless she can pay to fix it, then she's got nothing. Then (in the past) she would complain she had to pay X amount to bail us out. When it comes to emotional support, she's completely lacking........ but I just have to accept that I suppose. I did have a good shopping trip though, got myself 3 pairs of trackie dacks for $45, now THAT'S bargain hunting. I wouldn't dream of expecting you to send me comfy pants, especially at that price.... even if you could afford it! It's the thought that counts to me :) You need to be buying baby stuff, not 'fat pants' for me.. lol. Next time I see you on fb I'll go through the list of baby stuff I packed.... I won't bore everyone in here with my ramblings :) (there is also a section on here somewhere that tells you what stuff to bring, I think). I would be stressed too if my DP worked far away, I'm worried enough as it is that he won't be here when the action starts. I wish we had some kind of say in the OT situation, but it's just out of our control. He gets what he gets and that's that. I guess on the bright side we'll need the money, so yeah. I'll cope either way. LOL@ the waxing comment...... I know I'm about to bare all for drs and nurses to give birth, but wow.. I don't think I have the courage to go and get a wax. How awkward! LOL. And I'll tell you how I'm managing to look after it..................... I'm not. :redface: It's dang near impossible, I tell ya! Plus I sooooo don't have the money for it, DP would be horrified if I dipped into the bill money to get my coochie groomed. :D If by chance I feel brave, and find random money somewhere, I'll consider it though. But mostly, I am freaked out at the prospect of it lol. Glad you're feeling better after Kit's PM, I am too, actually. Three cheers for Kit!
Kellie - Happy bday to your beautiful girl :) I'm glad you got some reassurance from your OB. I know that feeling when you realise you haven't had any good kicks yet today.... freaks me out too. Then I feel slightly annoyed when bubby starts up right when I'm in the middle of freaking out, lol. Cheeky aren't they?!
Mildez - Oh I feel so much better that the odds are in favour of the bush! Or as my DP has been saying in a strange accent 'THE BOOOOSH' (zohan style for those who have seen the movie). I will try to keep it tidy though lol. Great news your scan went well.... that is weird about the placenta though. Hmmm. Oh I couldn't help but chuckle at your pg guineapig...... lol, poor little thing.
Alish - LOL@ your friend having her DH shave her bits. Good luck to your pregnant friend, and to you in your dealings with her.
Hope - Great to hear from you! Are you able to have a vb or are the drs pushing for a cs, being twins and all?
Dory - :heartbeat: Right back atcha, hehe. I ended up buying undies 2 sizes bigger, and in DARK colours so it wouldn't matter if things got messy. DP was mocking me when I refused to buy a multipack that had mostly white ones in it. Oh if only he understood, lol. But I didn't want to explain the gory details in the middle of best and less.... hahaha. And OMG OMG OMG!!! You could be back on the pg rollercoaster very soon, how exciting! You are so brave and strong. I hope Amelia's service brings you, DH and HB peace. I just know it'll be a beautiful occasion. :hug:
Tegam - Hi! I love looking at your picture of miss Molly... she's so sweet looking.
AFM - I am so tired after typing that marathon post that I don't really have anything much to add lol. I had my 36wk checkup today at the GP's office, and he says bubby is starting to engage. That explains those sharp feelings I've been getting down there. He also said he/she is spine to spine with me. That's posterior isn't it? I must look that up and try to turn bubs before the big day. I guess that also explains why my back has been a bit sore. ANYWAY, I have to get off here before I collapse over the keyboard from exhaustion. Take care everyone, and belly rubs to all of course.
-
Forshelby- My DS turned posterior the day before I went into labour (god knows how he had room!!!). It is definately not good for a natural. I have a high pain tolerance and I ended up going for an epi. Pethadine does nothing for back labour. My midwife friend says that if you crouch when you sit, bubba will attempt to move about. There is still time for bub to switch around even without doing anything but yeah, bestt to read up on it. I know I will be this time JIC.
Kell- He sounds like a lil mischief maker all ready :D Keep kickin' in there lil man.
Possum- How did your scan go?! Lol I have been hanging alllll day :p
AFM- The pic in my sig it the latest pic of my lil one. You can even see it's lil foot ^^ so incedibly cute. I have been talking to my lil "dinosaur" ever since I went for the scan :D
-
OH MY GOD!!!! IVE BEEN RAK'ED!!!!!!!!! I CANT BELIEVE IT IM SO SO HAPPY!!! :):):)
hi everyone!
gosh it was busy in here yesterday!
kell- glad everything went well! little buggar!
forshelby - spine to spine? does that complicate delivery or anything?
hi hope!
hi mel! hugs for you!
dory : thats great news! are you going to start trying now or wait a lil bit?
mildez - glad you could see your little princess moving around!
im sorry for anyone ive missed!
all good here :)
have a great day ladies! xxx

Ferrals I was in shock when I asked where the placenta was now (he was checking something else) and he said fundal. I insisted it couldn't be that high as only a month ago it was still in the lower segment. It was still extending down the posterior wall but the large majority of it he said was on the fundus. Not sure how that happened. So clearly the placenta doesn't have claws that are going to prevent it coming out of me otherwise it couldn't budge. Its such a relief to know I don't have an accreta which was the concern at the 20week scan.
Tegam I hope my little bub puddies up quick. Although it would be nice to use its tiny clothes for more then a week or two like my last DD. She got so big so quickly.
Possum hope your scan was perfect yesterday and your out celebrating your good news. Well probably having a nice sleep in this morning.
OMG I just noticed I've been RAK'ed. So if its any of you lovely ladies Thank you so so much :leap::leap::leap: I wonder how long that has been there :loveshower::loveshower:
kellbell enjoy dreamworld today.
forshelby I wouldn't worry to much about your bub been posterior at the moment apart from the backpain. I haven't seen any babies known antenatally to be posterior to be born that way. My DD was born posterior. Not plesant but know one has any idea until I was around the 8cm dilated.
-
Kellbell-I am loving it no stress just taking it easy.
Forshelby-I am lucky i have a little belly but i do struggle and just shave blind and hope for the best and yes nair is a hair removel cream but that takes to long now and i am impatient so stick with the shaver.
Damprye-soooooooooooooo cute and i can see the little foot.
Alsih-congratz on being RAK'ed it's a great feeling isnt it i have been RAK'ed also and was last year i am so gobsmacked i had tears in my eyes.
Mildez-you to arent we lucky gals.
And why wouldnt mine move its been there from 15 weeks is that bad and a sign of accreta OMG! i hope not.
AFM-I have another scan today lets hope i can get a pic this time of my princesses little face and hope my placenta had done a mildez and moved.
28 days until C day :o
-
So close now Ferrals. I can't wait until your bub is here safe and sound. It will be such a relief won't it? They were concerned about accreat with me because of a few things that increases my risk so don't worry about yours been an accreat. Been worried about PP is enough. When I had my first they suspected I had a mild accreta then as the placenta wouldn't budge and even in theatre it was difficult to remove 5hrs after delivery. Plus I've had surgery down there 3times before would again increases the risk and also I had those large placenta lakes which are a sign but of accreta but if it was stuck it wouldn't have moved. I'm still in shock it is so far away now. What a surprise. FX you get a picture of your bub's face. I couldn't see my bubs face yesterday as she had her hands to her face holding her cord. It looked like she was eating it even the Ob commented on her sucking the loop of the cord she was holding. Let us know how you go. Yes we are very lucky been Rak'ed. Its a first for me :0)
Well I just found more $$ from CS. Now it could be a good thing if it meant I am now not entitled to family tax benefit. I'm so over it. If I got the amount a month I was suppose to it might help but no instead I get 9yrs worth all in this financial year which means the family tax benefit I was relying on to help me stay at home a little longer I'm not entitled to. So I'll have 3 kids at home and not a single cent except for the CS. God I wish he never returned. It was so much easier when I had those 9yrs of bliss. Also apparently he is going to fight me for more access when DD wants less then he already has. So all the $$ I have got is been saved for the stupid court costs. Anyone know at what age a child can refuse to go? DD will be 11 this year and they said already they take her wishes into consideration but what age can they refuse all together?
Alish we must have been posting together. Woohoo on been RAK'ed also.

Sorry about the me post.....
I am in tears and have the worst headache....dad cried last night..now this man has probably only cried two times in his life.....the dr's have said that its not good news and he has to have a scan today and then see a nuro surgeon (sorry bout spelling) so its either, blood clot, tumor, mini stroke, alzhiemers or something like that...then my mum gets told yesterday she has to probably have another knee operation from a fall at a super market which they have to pay for and will have to fight the supermarket which is not looking good...and my mum gets bad panic attacks a few weeks after situations and gets real bad..so i wont just have dad to look after it will be mum as well...then on top of all my other problems i feel like everything has just come crashing down...and for the first time last night i really cried....why does it always happen all at once...this poor baby i am just hoping everything is alright there...im beside myself........
-
Well i cant believe it my placenta has moved in the 2 weeks since my last u/s it is no longer covering the cervix:o:o after all this time and all these u/s it has decided to move the u/s tech said it is about 5mm from my cervix still to close for a natural birth but seeing as though it has moved it might move more in the next few weeks for a natural birth :happydance: i will see what my OB says on Friday but i will have another scan in 2 weeks then they will decide OMG! i might get my 5th natural birth yet.
On the down side that means i have to wait a little longer to meet my girl insted of 4 weeks it will be 6.
Mildez-Thanks for that and i did get one picture of her face she was sucking on her hand so cute she has her dads frowning forehead lol.
And if you take DD to a court mediator for assesment and she says she doesnt want to go they can appoint her a lawyer on her behalf or recommend that she not go when she dosent want to and the judge will rule in her favor we were told that with DH DD but not until she is 11
Melster-sorry your family is having a hard time hope it's not as bad as they think.
-
Mildez-does that mean my risk of hemorrage is gone?
OOOOHHHH! can we have sex again?
And little miss is only 4 and a half pounds she was 4lb two weeks ago she is measuring 2 weeks behind i hope thats ok.
-
Woohoo for those that are now RAKees :D you obviously all deserve it :)
Go the crawling placentas! I hope yours keep on travelling up Ferral's
AFM- 12weeks today :D
A lil worried about Possum. Has anyone heard from her? I really hope the scan went ok :s

This Thread moves very fast. It's hard to keep up with what's happening.
Melster - I am very sorry to hear about your Dad. It must have been heartbreaking for you to witness him so distressed and crying. I know he is very frightened at the moment but this may not necessarily be all bad news. They may have picked up a problem before it became life threatening thus giving him time to get treatment and get better. Sad to hear Mum is also having problems. If the supermarket are to blame, would she consider shaming them into paying by going to a current affairs program?
Ferrals - It seems with this pregnancy, all your bad news eventually becomes good news. Here's hoping the placenta moves and gives you the chance for another natural birth.
AFM - feeling sick most of the time (not entirely unwelcome) but obviously I am still very concerned. I had early bleeding with this pregnancy and ended up in the ER. It's ages before I can feel secure that this will be my sticky bub but I am trying to plod through it as best I can. I have a scan at the doctor's office next week when I will be around the 8 weeks mark. I am praying for a heartbeat.
-
India's mum-sick is good and yes seems it has all come good in the end touch wood.
Damprye-upwards on onwards i say lol.
12 Weeks today awesome 2nd trimester here you come.
Possums-where are you?
Check out my sweet girl in my ticker i am soooooo in love with her.
-
Mildez...oh i can sympathise with you no matter which side of the fence you're on...CS is the root of all evil.....and so are ex's
Ferrals...you're ticker is beautiful, so glad that you're placenta has moved....i hope is stays there for you!!!!!!
India's mum...thankyou!!!
ATM...Think i have just had enough, it has been thing after thing after thing..and i have lost myself somewhere in it all....i miss my happy self!!! I miss having a smile on my face...i have not been able to enjoy this pregnancy like i would have liked too....i just want to be able to give some happy news and posts again....it seems like its all doom and gloom lately and no peace...i guess all i can do is hope and pray that everything works out in the end..i have my 19 weeks scan monday...so hopefully all is ok there
-
Ferrals I must say I'm shocked to for you. But in a fabulous way. Atleast this way if you do still need a c/s that risk of bleeding will be gone until your already in labour and a few cms dilated. You could probably safely get to 4-5cm without a drop of blood. 5mm is still to close for a natural birth but its getting there and there is another few weeks yet. Does this mean you might be drinking caster oil? lol I was talking to my Nan about it (who was given it twice to induce her with 2 of her babies) it sounds like dreadful stuff. It would be so nice for you to have your little bub naturally. The sex would be less of a risk now that the cervix is clear. I wouldn't be doing any rough stuff but.
India's mum your symptoms sounds very promising. FX the next week goes quickly and you see a gorgeous little HB.
Melster I too am very sorry to hear about your Dad. What a difficult time your having.
Damprye woohoo on the 12week mark.
-
Helllllooooooo everyone!!!!!!!
Ferrals - Awwwww! Such a beautiful pic of your baby girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cant stop looking at it!!!!!!!!! And yay for the moving placenta! Whhohoo! Does that mean you guys can shag again?? :D :pray: PS your DH is devine! A V'day cake! What a sweetheart!!
Possum - gorgeous possum! Im hoping your OK and your scan went well, let us know when you can xx
Mildez - loving your new ticker!! Its cruising along now!
