Oh wow ! I am so so very excited to see two little hotties in here - congrats, even if belated to Ms Kara and T Hopes. I am so very excited for you
Ms Kara - sorry about your BP - it's disappointing huh? and scary? GL sweetie.
T Hopes - I am just so pleased for you.
Ferrals - awesome news on the results. Feel better soon with the flu. Make those DS care for you. I know what you mean about being preg - despite how tough my preg with Hannah was, I actually do miss being pregnant.
Kell - glad you got to see your little bundle! Yay! It is just awesome.
Tegam - sweetie - I am so so very pleased that things went ok, but pity about low fluid. Keep us posted? I can just imagine you all clucky in the SCN and just imagining your bubs...
Angel - look at you go - glad things are going well ... you just get excited at anything you want and tell BF to keep his cranky pants to himself.
Forshelby - creeping closer.
AFM - wow.... Hannah, our little girl, has just not been putting on enough weight... and at 3 weeks had not regained her birth weight, so I made an appointment with the paed, which just happened to be at 4 weeks. She is still at least 100g below her birth weight. Anyway, we have a routine of formula comp feeds after BF during the day and BF at night. Some meds for me to help increase supply of BM and a review in 2 weeks. Paed doesn't think it's anything more than our baby girl was simply just hungry. Poor wee blossom. I feel a bit miserable about it all, but after 24 hours, which is still early days, we have a different baby. And by comparison, it is so so so much easier for us. I feel sad that I haven't been able to exclusively breast feed, but Hannah's health and wellbeing is my priority. Belly rubs to all those wee ones gestating away.
Tegam - Hmmm what happens when there's no fluid? I've never heard of that one..... I hope all is well
Reet - LOL Ok, I'll just sit in the corner until your bump starts movin' and groovin'.... It's SOOO nice to be home again, our bed is so soft, and large, and snuggly.... it was heaven that first sleep. Every night we get into bed and give thanks to the mattress gods for our lovely bed. I wouldn't say it's crazy to have extra appointments.... but perhaps unneccesary. Not that there's a problem with that, you do what you feel like, hun, don't listen to anyone else. It definitely can't do any harm. Now it's my turn to be jealous though cause I have to wait a whole month every time. Excuse me while I go and sook in my corner. Oh and thanks for the belly compliment, a few people have said it's a nice shape.
Ferrals - I like those odds. I'll keep everything crossed until I hear from you tomorrow.
Dory - It sounds to me like you're doing a great job and everything you need to do to get that little girl of yours all chubby and beautiful.
Just popping in really quick to let you know we had our 6wk scan today and everything went perfect! our little baby has a strong beautiful heartbeat! It was so amazing! So tiny yet so divine! We are in love already Bubs was measuring spot on to the day too so were thrilled! We have another scan in a few wks just for piece of mind and then our 12wk scan is booked for the 6th Dec!
sorry no persies but im really unwell with constant nausea but its a great sign so im not complaining!
ferrals - thinkin of you tomorrow xx
tegam - so relived that bubs looks well, hope everything goes ok with the fluid!
love to you all and i will catch up with everyones news once i get my head outta the porcelain bowl
Woohoo T-hopes!! Am so happy for u and ur dh!!! Bet u cld finally breathe a sigh of relief once u saw that little flicker of ur beautiful babies hb!
Forshelby- U too cld probably be crazy like me and get more appointments but like u said their not necessary!! I might realise this after i have midwife appoint. on monday. U have just seemed so relaxed this whole time.. its such a great way to be! And u made it sound like u were sleeping on a rock hard single bed at ur grandmas!! haha come on it cant have been THAT bad! nah i know what u mean.. nothing beats ur own bed!
Ferrals- Am really praying that u get the answer u so very much deserve tomoro. Hopefully they call early! Will be constantly checking in to see how u are going.
Hi Dory- Sounds like u are doing a magnificent job!
I am still all headachey and lazy feeling during the days.. i have been told by a lady i work with that i need to stay busy so im not so tired during the day.. she cld be right but at the same time I dont feel like doing anything!!! I am waiting for my energy to come back with a vengeance! ..not sure if it will tho.. before i was pg i used to have a V (energy drink) when i wld start feeling tired and crappy.. but now thats a definite big no no! Ive tried berocca but it made me gag so cant go near it again.. oh well ill just keep plodding along!
T-Hopes - Awesome news, hun.... So pleased to hear bub is well
Reet - I can't explain the weird calm I've felt during this pg. I had a couple of panicky moments very early on....... and then nothing! Just calm and serene and feeling very floaty and wonderful lol. I don't know where it's come from because I am usually a worrier, and I do stress out about things out of my control sometimes. But not this. I always said to DP 'things will be different next time, and everything will be ok'. I don't know if I could get extra appointments now, the dr has seen how calm and relaxy I am and would just tell me to be calm and relaxy again lol. He's great though and I trust him. Oh and the bed at Grandma's WAS rock hard. It was a double, but my belly didn't leave much room. We couldn't roll over without bumping into eachother, but there were lots more snuggles with less room. I know the headachey tired feeling.. it comes and goes still. If you need a bit of a kick, perhaps just try a sugary drink? A nice smoothie or even a handful of lollies might give you a quick boost. Of course, that's only a quick fix and you'll crash again eventually. I've been allowing myself a maximum of 2 caffienated beverages a day. Either a weak coffee, or a can of coke does the trick for me. Just take it easy on that stuff if you decide to have one. Those V drinks are awful for you pg or not, and taste like crap lol.
AFM - I'm really struggling lately with 'unknown cravings'. I know I desperately want something, and I don't know what it is!! It's really frustrating. I can't describe it. I've had a thing for pizza lately, maybe that's what I want??
Forshelby- Ive got a tub of sour cream in the fridge and really feel like eating some but i have nothing to eat it with!! Its so annoying! A trip to woolies might be on the cards.. i feel like burritos or nachos or something.. yummo!! And oh yum PIZZA!! I have been feeling like a bbq chicken and bacon pizza for ages! (with sour cream smeared on the top! haha) But with just me at home for the last few weeks i feel like too much of a pig buying a whole one just for myself! Dh always feels like pizza so we will definitely be getting some when he gets home on the weekend. Mm mmmmmm All this talk about food.. im starving!!!
I love V's!!! How can u not?!! I was so addicted to them... but yes they are really bad for u pg or not pg. I wld be fine probably if i liked coffee.. i cld have my little caffiene hit in the mornings.. but i dont.. i also dont like coke very much.. unless its watered down maccas coke..& if im eating chips or something with it! All good.. the way im living at the moment it doesnt matter if im lazy or not.. i have pretty cruisey days! Ill just keep going with the flow!
Ferrals- Any phone calls yet??? I home ur phone isnt ringing too much today so u keep having little panic attacks. Thinking of u.
A bit of a personal question.. but when did everyone elses bbs start changing??? All i seem to hear is that its early on normally.. but mine havent changed AT ALL!! I keep checking all the time.. size.. colour.. any new little bumps.. but nope.. nothing. They're not sore either.. i did hear that if u never got any premenstrual bb changes then its normal not to get any tenderness during pg.. but i thought they wld be feeling a little bit different! Has anyone else been like me?? Or is it really abnormal?!
