I am good thanks Dory - My MIL says my belly has dropped woohoo and i def feel a head down there. Hopefully hell be here soon we cant wait for our little boy. There is a full moon on the 18th and my DD when we asked her when her brother was coming on a calender pointed to the 18th i hope shes right.
At least one more week and he can come when he wants
How is the ttc going? hope we are following your next preg journey soon
Forshelby your DP sounds wonderful - sounds like you have been through so much you are amazing
Kell - oh how exciting, about your belly dropping.... I think I heard something about full moons and babies... can't remember what though.... LOL. I like the change to your ticker - easter bunny indeed. I hope he's here earlier than easter..
Kellbell! yay i love the belly dropping, its a great sign!
Hello everyone else, Miss DD2 has a bday party so im just running out the door! Totally mad busy here at the moment so havent been on for days. But have read up and will try for more personals later!
Forshelby CONGRATS ON Axel's arrival. I'm so pleased to hear how truely wonderful your DP is. I haven't read your birth story but read your complications afterwards. I had tears for you and your family over the hell you have been through. I'm so sorry that happened and am in shock that you could have been treated so poorly in ICU. Sounds completely horrific to say the very very least and I'm flabagasted that they could leave you like that. I hear you on the milk. I'm in agony my boobs have had an instant lift and expansion in the last 48hrs. They are like rocks covered in road maps (the veins) and constantly dripping. I'm definately engorged. The midwife called me this morning and told me to express some of as Josie has those squirty explosive poo's from all the foremilk thats high in sugar and thats all she gets as my supply is huge. I thought expressing would create more supply but she disagreed with me. Ouch
WBM yeah on such a great scan.
JJ and Iona Macca CONGRATULATIONS on your bubs arrivals. I am shocked we had 3 babies in here all born on the same day.
Angelfish what a worry with little Honor. I'm pleased to hear her scan was great and things has improved with her belly.
T-Hopes almost to the big 30. Love bub been active.
Well we are going fabulous. I feel fantastic although my boobs are caning but honestly how can I complain about that. Josie is such a pleasure and such a good little girl. We are having some issues with her explosive poo's but nothing we can't fix. All because mummy's milk is to plentiful. It should settle soon.
mildez , lovely to hear from you.. so happy to hear everythin is going well.. hope your boobies stop bein sore soon x
kellbell - yay for a dropped belly
angel - glad to hear everythin with honor went well
all good here, i think im startin to feel baby move.. im gettin flutters nearly everyday.. dh is startin to rub my belly alot now, i think its becomin more real for him now that im startin to show etc.. its nice.
im a bit worried about this pregnancy and my dad.....we find out tomorrow if the tumor is operable or not....but its breaking me inside to see my parents who have been together 40 something years and two peas in a pod have to go through something like this.......my mum wont cope i know it...she wont survive without dad and wont live alone and doesnt drive very much and always has had dad.......i have to be there rock....i will need to take them to appointments and drive them everywhere and be there all the time...and thats cool..and if they cant operate then i will have to help them cope......i am there for them no matter what and will do everything i can...........but its hard being that strong and im so worried about the stress on the baby.....i know if i hold it in eventually its going to come out some how...some where.......im lost and numb..........
Oh Mildez so lovely to read! YAY the boob milk! I just love Joise name!
Alish 17weeks woohoo!
Mel: Well how about we have a deal, you can be your parents rock if you let us all be your rock?? We are all hear for you and you dont have to be strong for anyone on here!!!!!
Melster - I am with T.... thinking of you during this very hard time....hope you get some news today that gives you some comfort and hope.
Mildez - expressing does help engorgement and also with releasing some of the foremilk... poor ole farty/explosive pants Josie... expressing does help establish your supply too, that's what the ABA says, so you were right.
Melster I hope you get some positive news today about your Dad. I am sorry your all going through this. Thinking of you and praying for you and your family.
Dory yes I've started expressing. I was concerned if I did express I'd only be making myself make even more and I don't need that right now. They are engorged and even when I express a little to remove some foremilk and she feeds exceptionally well the boob I fed of is still hard as a rock. The community midwife said to feed both sides but that will only make the explosive poo's worse as she will definately be only getting foremilk not the middle stuff and hind stuff. I can't express too much of as then there doubley stimulated but I need to do enough to try and reduce the explosive frequent poops. Poor bubba has a sore bum now. I've just put her in her first MCN. Sposies haven't helped her butt and the cream hasn't done much so its back to the chemist to get some other stuff that worked well with older DD.
Melstar - thinking of you at this hard time, some of these feelings are very close to me too.. my DH's mum is very very sick and its awful to see the heartbreak, pain and devastation in their eyes but we need to stay strong for the our babies because nothing will make them happier than these new grandchildren on the way xx... As Tegam said - we are here for you xx
Mildez - Yup - the big 30wks tomorrow! Gosh im excited about it too!! But im so worried this little one is going to come sooner rather than later! I swear he/she is trying to bust out! Some days i feel like there is an arm about to poke out of my vee-jay-jay!!!
Glad to hear you have settled in well back at home! Poor little Josie's bottom!! How sore for her!!! I love her name! It is too cute!!!
he has to go in friday...and of all days my bday...not that i care his life is more important than anything....and they will do a biopsy and take as much of the tumor as they can and then he will have to have radiation most likely....it is an aggressive one so it wont be that great news but the nuro said he doesnt even want to talk about time etc until he knows exactly whats going on...so it will come down to how long he can survive it for.....he is trying to get everything organised at home...he is only worried about mum......they have been together 45 yrs..............its just so so sad............
Mummytotwo: so very sorry that this pregnancy has ended in sadness for you. I hope you get some answers from your blood tests. Hope D & C went as well as can be expected today.
Melster: Sorry that you are going through such a hard time. I will be thinking of you and your family this week.
T-hopes: Sorry to hear that your mother in law is not doing well (i remember you posted about her diagnosis some time ago but you haven't posted an update in a while). She must be hanging out to meet her grandchild as something positive to look forward to.
Mildez: Ouch! Poor you exploding with milk. Sounds very uncomfortable. I hope your system settles a bit soon and Josie's little bottom is soothed by the cream!
Alish: yay for flutters! I am getting them every day too now : ) It is making the baby seem more real for me too. I think i hadn't let myself connect with the baby too much early on in case something went wrong but whenever s/he pokes me i'm aware that there's this little person there and have to say hi!
Wannabemum: yay for the good scan!
Kellbell: ooooh! That's so exciting that your belly has dropped. So won't be long now?
Angelfish: Hope Honor is feeling better now.
Reet: belly rubs! So close for you now too.
Forshelby: Go DP! What a beautiful thing to do for you. HOpe you and Axel are both doing well.
Dory: Hi! Squealing can be cute...when it's not ear shattering!
AFM: Flutters every day now. Very reassuring. Baby seems to react to talkback radio on the way home from work in particular!
ohhh Possum! Look at your beautiful little mango!!!! So excited to hear that you are getting flutters daily! Yayaya for baby Possum Thanks for asking after my MIL, just taking each day as it comes at the moment. Unfortunatly it has spread to her breast, liver, throat - its everywhere basically! Just pray everyday that she gets thru the next 10 wks comfortably and able to meet our little one xx
Mummytotwo. Im sorry to hear you're news and i pray they find some answers for you.
T-hopes..im sorry to hear about you're mother inlaw. Its such a horrible thing to have to go through.. I hope you and you're other half are coping ok. Hopefully she will make it to see bubs...
Hello to everyone else...sorry if i am vague.
I love how my hubbie always seems to turn things around so it's always about him....its so annoying. I wish he was more understanding at this present time, even tho he was with me and helping me look after DD it was his attidude...anyways i cant think too much about him because i will end up doing something or saying something i'll regret and this is not the time because im not seeing things clearly and im really loosing it about dad...
Im ok other than waking up through the night now and not being able to get back to sleep...needing to go to the toilet a bit, the other end..and tightening in my belly..its probably all stress....hopefully little bubbie is ok in there tho.
Mum will be staying with me from friday until dad (hopefully) comes back home. Think he is in intensive care for 5 days then recovery so it may be a week or so but we will just have to wait and c.....we can only stay in a little bit when he is in intensive care so will probably go in a few times a day....hopefully he will survive the op...being 70 and previously had a heart attack a few years ago....anyways trying to be brave and strong....i dont even want to do anything for my bday anymore....
