And your puppy gotta to be the cutest doggy ive seen- love his colour. Is he a naughty puppy he looks spoilt :-)
Kell- Im glad ur feeling a bit better tonight.. i believe we can honestly get to the finishing line! We can do it! one day at a time! Well really the days are going pretty quickly when u think about it so it shld be more like.. 1 week at a time! :)
One girl said to me on here months ago when i first fell pg and was freaking out.. focus on the positive stories.. dont read the ones that are going to make u sad..
So when ur feeling negative go and read someones birthing story.. there are some absolutely beautiful ones!
Yes get waxed! Even if u just get a nice bikini wax.. I wld say go the G-string wax or brazilian tho..why not??! It does hurt but honestly we are going to go thru something a lot more painful (and u already have so u know REAL pain!) It is so good.. u dont have to worry about anything for atleast 3-4 weeks.. u also dont get that awful itching or rash that comes with shaving. Find urself a good waxer though.. it makes a huge difference! If they have a lot of experience and are mature and professional u feel a lot more comfortable.. and they normally get it over and done with quicker! Oh and dont be embarrassed! Just like ur ob. they have seen it all before a billion times! If u have any other questions pls feel free to ask me! If not tho go and make urself that appointment.. u shld be able to get 2 in before ur little boys birth!
Oh and yes our little man is just gorgeous..and very spoilt! How can u not spoil something so cute tho!! Hes not too naughty yet, thank goodness.. except he doesnt quite understand the whole peeing outside thing.. dirty little boy.. we'll get there tho!
Reet- I'm petrified to ever get down there done lol. i waxed my legs once, the hair hasn:t grownback properly since.. eep
Kell- Even this early I am reading the positive birth stories, I think that if I didn't I would start forgetting that this could end in a real live baby and could actually be a good experience. i am holding onto the thought of a better labour because I start to panic everytime I don't suppress all the things that could possibly go wrong.
Possum- Yays just one last sleep and you get to see your bubba :D Lol at the image you got of my DS and my nether reigon :p funny/gross thing is over 200,000 have actually seen it O.O, I have the link to the vid in my sig... but don't watch it, tis gross lol. And yes I had my u/s but not till after 6WST.
AFM- Ok, ok, I'll get to the scan news :p Bubba looks perfect, kicking, stretching and wriggling about. Was so cute. Very low risk for down syndrome so no amnio test and it means that I can finally relax because this baby is mine and will be sticking around for a long time! My OB didn't do the HB but with all that movement I am happy. My lil one is already 5cm from head to rump, it seems so big lol and I am so very happy! Only 8 more weeks and I get to find out the sex and I will be halfway. I just cannot seem to contain my excitement atm lol! I need to sleep but don't want to stop looking at the pic of my lil one. Will upload the pic to my album if I can and then when at a computer next, I will change the pic in my sig over. And just once more... Woohoo!!! And a deep sigh of relief :)
Damprye fantastic news on your scan. Everything sounds completely perfect. Any guesses what its gender is? No strong feelings etc?
You girls are so funny on the whole waxing, shaving business down there lol. Been on the other end it really doesn't matter. I wouldn't remember who was hairy and who wasn't a minute after seeing down there. And what is even funnier to me is I was the opposite. I grew mine back as I didn't want my work collegues to see me bawled down below! I reckon less then 10% of people are "clipped" so the odds are in favour of the bush. I certainly am having trouble keeping myself presentable. I can't remember having this much trouble with DD2. My belly is not even big but do you think I can reach down there and its not something I want DH to do. And OMG letting a beutician down there with veins I don't think so. I'd frighten her for life.
Possum Magic you have given some fabulous advice on manahing these horrible feelings of ours. Your completely right that regardless of how it ends its not going to change. I'll try add that to my positive thinking. Hope you have a wonderful scan today. Do you plan on finding out the gender of having a surprise?
Caster oil now I don't think I could force myself to drink that and if I did I'm sure I'd have the runs whilst pushing. That would be so yuck. I guess I might be desperate enough to try perhaps when the time is closer.
yay dampyre great news!
reet how cute is your belly!
i remember my friend when she was pregnant, close to when she was due she made her husband shave down there hahah, she was such a tiny person and her belly was huge so there was no way she could do it.. haha i couldnt imagine brett ever doing that he would be sick!!! :P
turns out she is pregnant, nice to know she isnt a total liar!!
Reet-sorry to say no i cant handle the regrowth while waiting for it to get to the right length to be waxed again i like smooth 24/7 and the one time i did try it after i nearly had a flap ripped off i looked like a plucked chicken so i shave or nair every 2nd day.
One of my friends gets her legs done every 4-6 weeks and yes they are real smooth for 2 weeks then *****ly and hairy for the other couple of weeks until her next wax ewwwww i hate hair.
And yes castor oil is BAD YUK! but it made me go into labour with DS2 & DS3 so works for me.
Possum-good luck with your u/s hope your bubby puts on a little show and wave for you my girl has hidden with every u/s so hoping my one on wed we get a 3D pic of her face finally.
Kellbell-we will all get through this myself included i have had such a bad run since 2009 when we lost Abbi everything just got worse with all the testing and genetics failed PGD ivf an effected embryo unable to get pregnant because of stress then with this one all the f#ck ups with the CVS testing and waiting and waiting for someone to tell me this bub is effected and i will lose her aswell i really expected for lightning to strike twice and i supose i still do i think all this is to good to be true but i have to believe this bub will be ok i have to be positive for her otherwise it is unfair to start off her life with nothing but fear and stress.
Dont get me wrong i have my moments but most of the time i try to put it aside and be normal for her.
Damprye-woohoo on a good scan it feels good to get that sigh of relief doesnt it.
Mildez-i got the runs first from the castor oil which set off the contractions and i didnt have anymore runs while in labour or while pushing cause i was cleaned out i will say it gives you a belly ache until you are on the loo and all empty.
Alish-LOL i wont let my DH shave me down there at the moment because he would pitch a tent and it would lead to us getting it on and seeing as we are on NO SEX!:shakehead:because of this placenta i dont want to temp him but i can tell you he just loves doing it.
AFM-my disco queen has been kicking up a storm keeping her mum and dad happy.
Alish I almost got DH to shave my legs this morning but just managed to do it myself. He would happily do the other area but there is no way I would shave (the itch would drive me insane when it grew back) Dh happily took my stitches out down there (down there and up to) They were disolvable but after a few days I couldn't stand it so got him to take some out! He definately wasn't complaining IYKWIM just about it been out of action :ROFL: It wasn't after birthing otherwise I would have slapped him I think.
Must of been posting at the same time Ferrals.
Ferrals lol if I asked DH I'd have to be committed to following through with DTD afterwards or something else more personal.:
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
Hi to everyone i have missed im ready for bed been a looooong day. Off to dreamworld tommorow to look like a beached whale and try and keep up with my Ella
Belly rubs for all :bellyrubs:
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
