Sending T-Hopes my best wishes.
Hi ladies!
Thanks so mush for all your supportive words! Im such an emotional wreck today! Crying just reading my good luck msgs! I cant believe today is my turn! I will be holding my baby this afternoon! I just cant get my head around it! Its doesnt feel real! Im so excited and so scared! I cried when we got into bed last night cause it was the last night i would go to sleep with this bub in my belly and then cried with happiness cause i get to meet my bub so soon! Gosh these hormones are crazy! I cant wait to see this little face i have been dreaming of for so long!
Bags are all re-packed and ready to go! We have to be at the hospital at 3pm for a 4.30pm caesar...
And cant remember who asked, but no we dont know the sex yet! So excited to find out... my guess is hmmmm.... i'll go for girl!?
PossumMagic is my piggy so will txt her as soon as we can!
Well I will sign off now, my pregnancy journey is almost finished and i have loved every second and im ready to begin my next chapter of being a mummy... wow!
oh gosh here come the tears again! :)
T-Hopes- Comgratulations..I haven't been in this thread very long but your post made me tear up a little bit :) You deserve it
AFM- I am just sitting around waiting and wondering. Tomorrow DF and I are supposed to elope..and I am so nervous he will get cold feet again. I am also worried about this new bub. It is so difficult not being able to share this with any family members or friends but I just wanted to keep this under wraps until 2nd trimester to be safe (unless I am showing obviously)
:leap: :leap: GO THOPES GO :leap: :leap:
oh good luck thopes....pitty it wasnt this morning so u didnt have all day to think about it....i really wish u all the best and give ur new little bub a big cuddle from me.....cant wait to hear.....i will be checing constantly later......
Jessica.......wow..congratulations for tomorrow the..hopefully he wont get cold feet then...keep us posted and let us know if u need to chat
angelfish.......oh no believe me i am one that defiantly.....defiantly understands........its really hard to understand unless ur actually in these situations with these kids ands ex's......people tend to have really strong opinions about it...but unless u have to live day to day with it it can be a completely different story......i get judged all the time by what i say and do with the skids......but unless its them who have been raising these 4 skids for seven yrs and putting up with a pyscotic trouble making ex then really they need to be more understanding....its very hard raising children that are not ur own....and then dealing with hubbys views on top...its a very tricky situation
pm and alish....thanks....yes it is a very complicated..long winded..messy situation.........dont think anyone can really help me..guess i just gotta work it out for myself
atm....i didnt get outa bed yesterday and having trouble today....with the weather...and me being tired and body tired i just cant be bothered....guess its getting later in the pregnancy now....betta get the present for hospital for dd and the baby to give each other so its one thing less to think about
Oh my - i cant stop sweating!!! How long can this day go for??! Leaving home in 45mins to drop my dogs at my mum and dads then straight to the hosp!
Oh gosh im gunna go thru a can of Rexona today!
ANd im so thirsty!!

Ferrals: I can understand how worried you must be about Murraycod. Hopefully there is no bad news reason for staying away.
Hi everyone else...
Hi ladies!
Just letting u know that all is going wonderful with our gorgeous little man, Noah James! The Caesar went really well and recoveri great so far, still tender of course but still on such a high! He is feeding really well, couldn't ask for anything more! He is beautiful, healthy and happy. :). So blessed!
thopes, so happy to hear everythin is goin well!
jessica - congrats on getting married, you must be over the moon!
hello everyone! hope youre all well!
I ended up finding out but DF still doesn't know so i'm just telling family & friends i don't know :)
I suppose i can tell you ladies tho :D
It's a beautiful little GIRL
T-Hopes glad Noah is doing so well & Glad your recovering well also :)
T-Hopes so wonderful to hear everything is going well and about your gorgeous little man Noah. CONGRATS I'm so happy for you and your DH.
The Mrs CONGRATULATIONS on your wedding. Woohoo. I'm really happy for you also. Enjoy married life.
Cheshire CONGRATS on expecting a pink bundle. I love little girls. I have 3. Its fantastic. I'm sure boys are also I just don't have any of my own to comment. Maybe next time. I kept the gender of J from almost everyone also. But they knew I knew. DH didn't want to know so I had to keep it secret.
Bec thinking of you today and will be praying you have a fabulous scan and see a little heartbeating pumping away. With J I had 3 scans before they could find her and know she was in the right place. Very nervous time. I was 6weeks when they saw her for real.
Well a little sick in my house. Worried J has whooping cough just waiting for the results. Its probably not but you can't be to careful with the little ones. And I am developing phnoemonia (I can't spell) from a chemical burn in my top of lungs. Teachs me to actual clean the house hey? Its so gross because I'm coughing up crap.
T-Hopes-Awwwwww so nice to hear.
Mildez-I hope it's not whooping cough it is bloody awful.
:happyforyou::happyforyou:
So much great news!!
Congratulations Mr and Mrs T-hopes!!!! Such a fantastic sized gorgeous baby boy :D I love boys - they rock!
Jess - congrats on your elopement! So excited that it's all worked out - I don't think I ever said congrats on your pregnancy too - a lot's changed in a few months, I am so happy for you :)
Cheshire - so pleased about your 20 week scan - and congrats on the little girl!
Bec - can't wait to hear some good news from you today too :)
Mildez - take care of your household (the people, no more cleaning for you) and invest in a mask! I hope everyone is ok.
We're all good here - DS has too much energy (I've just chased him out of my bedroom - how he opened the door I have no idea - where he was playing with a box of tampons...), every toy in the house is strewn on the floor, the floors are filthy (no one else notices and my ability to vacuum is hindered by my back, but we'll be doing it today!), in addition to too much energy, DS woke up too early... But all is well, we are healthy, belly is growing, DH is home :)
Thanks Ferrals. I'm hoping it isn't either. My middle DD had whooping cough 18months ago. I'd be devastated if my little bubba gets it. She has had her 6weeks immunisations already but she was coughing then but we (the nurse and I) decided it was best to do it anyway as although she had a cough she was well. 8weeks today. I can't believe my baby is getting so big. I don't want this time to go so fast. It makes me sad all the gorgeous little pink and little baby clothes I am putting away most likely never to be worn again by a baby of mine :crying:
It already makes me sad to think that I might only have one more pregnancy - and I'm barely started this one! I can understand already why people have another baby several years after the "last"
Morning ladies,
I cant believe I'M NEXT :o:o:o......is there anyone close to my date?
Its quiet scary actually, probably because last time i didnt go into labour on my own. I was induced 3 weeks early due to no fluid and was induced on the day he told me so i had no time to think, had an epidural before i went into labour..i only felt pain here and there and down my right side when it hadnt worked properly and was there from 12pm and by 10pm i had a c-section. It felt like it went really quick tho.........
So i really dont know what going into labour is truely like and going to you're due date and the pain etc. So only just now have i started getting a bit nervous and excited...
Im also starting to wonder what it will be like with a 3yr old who is quiet independant/stubborn/strong and with me all the time..and a baby. Im wondering how she will cope and how i will cope with the no sleep again and feeding again...im a tiny bit worried ill get post natal again, but its different circumstances this time so i am hoping and praying that i wont. Its only because i am a bit down with dad, and hubby...that im a bit worried about all the hormones and no sleep and the shift in our life....
I worte hubby a 4 page letter and left it there...HOPE and pray he actually reads it...
Wannabemum....yeah i understand...my cousin just had her tubes tied after 3 kids..she had it done while she had her c-section and i think she struggled with it a bit. She new she didnt want anymore but it still upset her. I am the same..this will most likely be my last one...im worried i havent enjoyed the pregnancy enough for my last pregnancy..i dont enjoy it now but i missed being pregnant last time and having a new born. My dd got the box of tampons out, but i was at the SHOPS :redface: and quiet embarrased when i noticed LOL
Mildez....Thats no good everyone is sick...it always spread through the house and is so horrible.....hopefully you are all ok and get better soon. I know it does go quickly..and must be hard when its the last one...try and treasure each day and each moment and take lots of photos..
Cheshire.....:partysmiley::cheer: congratualtions on the little pink bundle...
Hey alish and ferrals
Thopes....good to hear from you, im glad everything is going really well....give Noah a cuddle from me
Bec...let us know how you're scan goes..praying bubs is safe and happy in there....
Hi ladies!
Scan went really well. One definite little sack and fetal pole and possibly another! It was just the u/s thing at my FS's office so I'm booked in for one at the proper Melbourne IVF ultrasound place next wednesday to see heartbeat and check how many babies are in there! I'm still just taking it one step at a time, and trying to stay calm, but it was nice to get good news for a change!
How's this for amazing?! I went to show my sister the u/s photo and she had just POAS and she's pregnant too! We're a week and a half apart! I'm so excited to be sharing this journey with her.
Melstar- the epi is always there if you need it, but I think every labour is different so take it as it comes. It's an overwhelming experience (well mine was), no matter if it's your first or fifth. It will work out :)
WBM- after all my issues, I know this will be my LAST!!! But when others have babies I always want one too!
Hi to everyone else! I forgot to write down what was on the last page, so I'll do more persies later!
Bec
T-hopes: so nice to hear from you. Not sure how you got on BB from hospital but glad you did. Wonderful to hear you are on a high : )
Bec: that is great news! Oh how lovely that you and your sister can be preggers together! It's great sharing the journey.
Mildez: I hope J is ok and it's not whooping cough. Though i'm imagining if she had a serious dose you'd know about it by now if she's been coughing for two weeks already and managing ok? So hope it's just a run of the mill annoying virus and she is well again soon.
Melster: Are you going to try for a VBAC? Or are you having a planned c-section give that you had an emergency one last time?
AFM: I feel like the old pelvic floor is starting to take some strain. Feels a bit tender and at times (TMI warning) i feel a bit nervous going to the loo: scared of putting too much pressure on it in case i damage something or something falls out! Do you reckon i could still do some exercise to strengthen pelvic floor and get in shape for labour (like Preggie Bellies classes) or is 26wks too late? Also, starting to think seriously about labour and how i feel about trying to 'go natural' again and who my support person might be. DH was great last time but found it stressful and it was great having my best friend there as 2nd support person. But she has small baby now and not sure if she can come. Not sure whether to organise a doula.. but what if i find it too much and decide for an epidural? Would the doula give me a hard time? (I went into labour naturally last time at near 40wks but this time i need induction at 38 and i've no idea what that will be like. Scared it'll be more painful).
Bec - congratulations! I know what a relief it is to find a pregnancy in the uterus after an ectopic. And possibly two! I envy you that you get to share your pregnancy with your sister, I have a sister too and I would love for her to be pregnant with me.
Possum magic - I'd say take the epidural, do not try to be a hero. I was induced for my first baby. You just do not get the relief from contractions at all with induction. Normally, that is what I heard not what I experienced, you supposed to get "peak and valleys", that is, a contraction and then the pain goes away for a bit until the next contraction. When they induce you, it just feels like you have an awful painful contraction that takes your breath away and after that a slightly smaller contraction, but still very painful. Just peaks, no valleys at all. And it can go on forever, my baby was born more than 24 hours after I was induced, after some 13 hours of big contractions. I wanted to do the "natural" birth too, but I asked for epidural pretty fast, the contractions were so bad, and I am really glad I did. After the epi, the birth of my daughter was truely a magical experience.
Hello Ladies...I am getting super nervous about approaching the dreadful 5th and 6th week of my pregnancy. This is when ALL of my m/c happen...Hopefully afterwards I can feel better..
Bec- I really hope this one is sticky for you! How exciting to be pregnant same time as your sister and maybe have twin
hey all
cheshire - yay for a girl!!
bec - twins?? really?? how exciting! i hope there is two in there!! congrats for your sister also!
possum - hows it going? i hear you about the falling out thing, i sneezed and wet my pants the other day haha! ive started to do pelvic floor excersises but ive always always had a weak bladder..
how r u going luna?
melster - you must be next.. how exciting :) everything will be fine and you will find your rythmn with two kids, how are things with hubby did he read your letter?
the mrs - dont stress this will be your sticky baby
wbm - im sad that dh only wants 2 kids, im loving being pregnant i could do it forever lol..
sorry for anyone ive missed i was being lazy and only read the last page ;) how r u all going?
i think ive been having bh.. i dont know for sure but ive been getting pains down there.. nothing bad but enough to make me uncomfortable, normal??????
possum - a friend of mine has just become a preggie bellies instructor and she said that you can join and do classes up to and over your due date as long as you join before 30 weeks (so you get the benefits) - it's never too late to do pelvic floor exercises! When you're doing a wee, stop the flow - that's what it should feel like. Don't do them too often when you're on the toilet, it's not good for your bladder, but once you know what that feels like, do sets of 10 three times a day - hold each one for 3 seconds. That's only 30 seconds 3 times a day! Oh re a doula? I think they're there to support your decisions, so it may be worth posting in the doula section and asking for advice/contact from someone - I've never looked into it, but I've thought about it!
bec that's great news!! So glad the scan went well - now just to wait for next week :) Hopefully little heartbeat(s) to accompany the little fetal pole(s)! And so exciting about your sister - that will be an awesome journey together. :)
Jess - good luck getting through the next couple of weeks - at least you've got DD to keep you distracted! Are you feeling well?
alish - I think pregnancy's so varied that just about everything can be considered normal! Still lots of stretching to go in there too - if it gets painful or worrying, call your hospital/Ob. Pregnancy's great isn't it :)
I'm feeling pretty good about this being a sticky pregnancy now :) I can feel my uterus getting bigger almost daily - it's a good thing. I'm off to the acupuncturist today so hopefully he can help my back.
