Pregnancy after Miscarriage or Loss ~ January 2011

[damprye]

I cannot remember who, but there is someone that is one day behind me in this pregnancy. I said I would warn the day that my nausea became morning sickness... Well I say to buy a bucket today so you are prepared for tomorrow LMAO! So I guess this means I am definately UTD lol. I know that the u/s showed bub and so did all the other tests but ms to me has just made this so real. The last time I vomited before today was on the 2nd November 2007, giving birth to DS

Forshelby~ Yeah I remember that feeling when I was PG with my DD, it's all for a good cause though and relish the relaxtion now darl as once bub is here you never get relaxtion again they just get more demanding as they get older....lol.... I can tell you it was the worst feeling of my life when I heard the news of Toowoomba, I have never been so scared in all my life or so upset as I was I could not stop myself crying and thinking the worst. It was just horrible and nobody should ever have to feel that type of emotional pain.

PossumMagic~ Thank you for your lovely kind words darl, hope you are feeling a little better soon.

KF~ thank you for the congrats hun, hope everything is going well for you.

Damprye~ WooHoo for your PG feeling real now even though it makes you sick it's always good sign.

AFM~ Well I had my ph call from the DR surgery yesterday and have to have my BT again next Wednesday as they couldnt get my bloods to the lab due to flooding.

Afternoon ladies!

Just letting you know I went to see my GP yesterday and I dont have a UTI, but he sent me for an u/s of my kidneys, bladder and urinary tract! The sonographer wouldnt tell me anything! So frustrating, she was very stone faced and that always makes me worry! I know they arent suppose but sometimes you gett one willing to share!

I asked her if my baby was ok and she said 'The heart is beating but thats all i know' Just the way she said it was yuk! Now im worried! Silly i know cause the heart IS beating but i automatically worry something is wrong with the rest of the baby! But have to remind myself that she ONLY checked the heart and it was great!

Ahhhh breathe woman & get a grip!!!!!

I get results tomorrow so fingers crossed all is normal! xx

[damprye]

so, so peeved. I called the docs a lil before 9 this morning and the receptionist told my appt was at 11:30, instantly told my friend and her husband so they could remind me ( I was at theirs ) and so at 11:10 I rocked up at the docs just for them to turn around and say it was at 10:30! So that's two appts I have missed this week cos of their stuff ups. Next appt they can get me is Monday. Bugger that, it would have been like 2weeks since my bloods were taken by then. I may as well just wait for my OBs appt on the 20th and get him to check. In such a grumpy mood, all day morning sickness including while I am driving doesn't helpp.

Hi guys,

I just had a call from one of the midwives who I see and just found out I have gestational diabete's... the only possible symptom I've had is a bit of bloating around the belly, so it's come completely out of the blue... in a bit of shock at the moment.

[alish]

dampyre its me!

[damprye]

So sorry to hear that JJ :hugs:

Alish- good luck tomorrow, hopefully you wont get all day morning sickness like me lol

Clairesmuumy - I am so very glad you are safe and that your daugther was safe in Toowomba. Just inconceivable.

Jenna - bummer about GD - the only good news is that at least it's only about 10 weeks to go! Yay little dragon fly.

Melster - no advice, just hugs.

Kellbell - hope you guys are safe.

Damprye - poor you with your bucket! Hopefully it only lasts another 6 weeks and the ADS ( all day sickness) is gone by 12 weeks.

Sunshine and Stars - oh I hope you feel better soon - it's awful feeling sick and having to be in public. I agree - no more hand shaking!

THopes - ahh good news a beautiful heartbeat! Sorry the experience wasn't what you'd hoped....

Forshelby - you always manage a funny story... you must just be distracted with something at the mo?

I can't remember who said they have both ADS and a tummy bug and just feeling gross? Hope you feel better soon.

Tegam - glad you guys are ok. Hugs to Molly and the gang. Hope you, beautiful mumma, are going well.

Our little family is not directly affected by the floods in Bris, but have family and friends who are. We used to live in some of the areas that have been inundated, so that's a pretty sobering thought, but really, as other's have said... just thinking of those who have lost loved ones and or their homes, and hoping they can find a way through these dark times.

Hi gals!

Just got back from my GP and my renal u/s yesterday showed i have Hydronephrosis (translation -dilation of kidneys), apparently is not uncommon in pregnancy, just very painful for me But the doc said bubs wont be affected by it, just causes it for me! Cheeky monkey! Its worse in my right side but will speak to my ob about it next appt and see if he can shed some light on it!
My GP is a moron and really didnt explain things to me!

Have a lovely w/end girls
Love and prayers to those affected by the floods xx

Dory: Glad to hear you are safe and dry. Very sorry for your fellow Queenslanders who are not. How is your brother?

Jenna: Shame about the GD. What a pain. Did you have it with your first child?

Damprye: vomiting! Ugh! So far i've escaped that (FX)
Alish: Hope you enjoy seeing bub today. Waiting to hear.
Kirstenfleur: I like having the ticker cos it helps me keep track of where i'm up to. I did feel a little wierd about it to start with but if figured it won't change the outcome... BUt i also hated having to book the hospital. I feel better not looking ahead too much. But the hospital i wanted (nearest to home) is very popular and if you don't book at like 4wks (!) then you don't get in!
Thopes: How did you go with your test? Did you find out?
SUnshine and stars: hope you feel better soon. Yay to starting birthing classes!
Melster: sounds like a tough situation. Have you thought about counselling for you and DH to help you work out some of this complicated stuff?
Ferrals: DH's BB obsession! Glad Mowgli is better and you got some good news about legal aid and other financial stuff. Hope your DH finds work soon.

AFM: had another OB visit (i'm going weekly for reassurance). Saw the baby. It looks like a little prawn now instead of a blob! Amazing seeing the development in one week. Heard the heartbeat (much stronger now). Nearly 8wks

Possums - thankyou so very much for asking about my bro... he's a lot better. Stitches out today, but by the time I had a chance to have a decent chat with him it was too late to call him, so I will find out how he is tomorrow. But the last time I spoke him, he was doing so much better. Still not great, but better. Glad you got to see your little prawn and hear the heartbeat...just awesome. Even though it took me ages to get a ticker for Hannah, I regret waiting and it was illogical. Having one is exciting and it does help keep you and everyone else to date and like you said won't change outcomes. So why not embrace it and try to have a little fun. See hindsight is 20/20.

T Hopes - oh blossom - hope your discomfort isn't too much.

Angel - you said the nicest thing the other day. I lurked in a few forums before I joined BB and the reasons I chose BB is for exactly what you wrote - it's just so supportive. Hope you're doing ok.

Anyway, I am just hanging out for Kit's little Tiger to make a grand entrance! Who's nest after Kit ( who is due any day now....)

[angelfish]

Possum~ its great that you get to see your lil one every week. Hearing a hb no matter how far along i am i know what a great sound it can be .

Dory~ i love this place i tryed another message board and they all act like they are in jr high and not supportive for anyone. LOL i wish i would be due anyday now i am 37 weeks tommorow but she looks like she is staying put

[dory]

Angel - maybe you'll get to enjoy every week up to 40.... but maybe your girl will surprise you. what a journey it's been huh? can't wait to read your exciting news... have you got someone to be your PIG (post it girl for your birth announcement?) I am happy to swap emails or maybe you'll be so excited and organised you'll jump on BB yourself!

[damprye]

May have lost my job thanks to ms. I thought zi hid it well but didn't nnotice that I was as white as a sheet when I walkeed back in.
TMI- I don't know why but at the end after nothing being left in my stomach, I kept heaving and started spewing up some blood, my stomach also has bruising on it. What can cause theat? It kinda scares me esp being only my second day of "ms"

[alish]

hey all...

thopes - you poor thing, hope it dosent gice you too much grief..
damprye - if they fire you they are absolute sh*ts!
dory - glad your brother is doing well.. great news

sorry to anyone ive forgotten!

possum magic - thanks babe!
scan went well.. thinks im due around 10th sept im not going to change my ticker though, dates always change this early on.. we will know better next scan.. we seen our little miracle yesterday i started crying haha!! dh had the biggest smile on his face it just melted my heart. couldnt quite see the heartbeat, could see the blood pumping where the heart will be.. so doc was very happy, but not as happy as us

[~Stoked~]

Hi everyone, this is going to be selfish again! Sorry!

I'm a mess today. I am so worried about this baby. I'm sure my symptoms are disappearing the last few days, I didn't even get up to go to the toilet last night. I have my scan on Monday week but I can't wait that long. It was around this time that I found out my last baby had passed a few weeks earlier and I can't help but think it's happened again. My tummy doesn't seem to be growing much either. I dont know what to do. I need reassurance. I've decided I need to get a Doppler, any suggestions?

Sorry once again, hope you're all well xx

[damprye]

Stoked- hugs hun. I hope this bubba sticks nicely and it's heart keeps on a beating for years and years to come

AFM- I feel so self concious about puking while DP is home. Most the time he has been at work but now itt's the weekend... just trying so hard not to let it out, yet I have still found myself sitting in the toilet. I do have my bucket in my room but DPs office is right next to my room. I just wanna get drressed and go out but am afraid to leave the security of the toilet.
