atm.....im still away on holidays and were going to do the theme parks sund and mond....not that i can go on the rides.....and im kinda looking forward to getting home........im still analising symptoms or lack of symptoms but im sure there around....i have had headaches the last couple days........i just dont want to have less symptoms because they said coz my mc was different and i didnt have many symptoms thats probably a sign....so its made me a bit paranoid......and my stomach is feeling a bit more flabby than hard.........im sure i probably have nothing to worry about...its just a little scary...i have had no bleeding and no period pains......so all i can do is wait for my appointment
-
Melster be kind to yourself and know that there really is nothing you can do but pray, so try to enjoy your holiday and keep busy!
-
Melster-- try to enjoy as much of your holiday as you can, and distract yourself from analyzing symptoms... yes, it's easier said than done...thinking of you and wishing you well.
Angelicdragon-- you're courageous in my book... welcome to you...and may this be a happy part of your journey!
Hi to all the ladies-- my belly bump is HUGE, it seems. I've been crazy busy and this is the first that I could check in. I've got a nasty looking cold sore on my upper lip (dead center) and my vanity has kicked in...I've got a funeral to do tomorrow for a lovely lady who lived a long life and the church will be PACKED and I've got the worries about my appearance and this stupid cold sore. The nurse says my resistance/immune system is out of whack. No surprise there.
Not a great evening here. Sorry for the downer...but my DH got into a verbal fight and I snapped. Feeling kinda yucky right now. I hope that tomorrow goes smoothly.
Thanks for listening... and belly rubs to all.
-
It's 11 pm here and I am thinking that I need to put myself to bed with a warm mug of milk and honey with cinnamon. I am thinking that I need to get myself some REST before tomorrow shows up! :shakehead:
-
Sounds good, i hope the warm milk helps you to drift off!
-
warm milk is good.
Melstar I ananlyse things too. the headache, sore bbs, nausea that comes and goes, stretchy ligament pain .. at the moment it is the tiredness more than anything reassuring me. I got asked today by a mum from school if I was pg so goes to show my belly is already popping, then again being pg #100 (Or seems like it) I guess it is very pre stretched. I don't know about being courageous but I just dont like ending my family with m/c's. I love kids and enjoy having them around. I feel so lost when they are at school or if we go out like we did tonight and the kids have a babysitter. I feel guilty having time out even for 3 hours and having them looked after by someone else. But on the other side of the coin I love babysitting for others and would rather have kids come here and play than send mine out.
Anyhow Mel try and enjoy your holiday :)
S&S my mum used to get coldsores and would treat them with a dab of metho. But perfume has alcohol in it and dries it up just as quickly and smells nicer lol. I hope your evening calms down and DH has settled his mood.
Been a busy day so i am going to go to bed and crash.
hugs and g'nite

Melster - Don't let a lack of symptoms freak you out, hun. I'm surprised health professionals said that to you.... plenty of pgs turn out just fine and start out with very little symptoms. Enjoy your holiday, and I hope you can find some distractions :)
Sunshine - I hope you have a better day tomorrow, and I hate how whenever there's an important engagement coming up, pimples/cold sores etc seem to pop up. What is with that?! It happens to me too. I hope you're feeling better soon and you can kiss and make up with your DH even sooner. Well maybe not kiss.... haha.
Tegam - Woooh! Enjoy!
AFM - Had the busiest weekend everrrr!! First was the cake making extravaganza, which took me about 5 hours in total on Friday afternoon/night. Then on Saturday we were up at 5.30 for DP to go to work, and he wanted me to go with him to keep him company, so I did. After that we had to get ready straight away to go to the 21st Bday I made the cakes for, and straight after that we picked up our niece for a sleepover. That lasted until about 4pm yesterday. So, I am knackered! I had the most swollen feet from being out and about all weekend, ughhh.
In the midst of typing this, my friend who the cakes and party was for just dropped by with a big bunch of flowers to thank me for my efforts. How nice is that?! She paid for the ingredients and everything, I really didn't expect her to get me anything at all. The 'labour' involved in the baking was my present to her. Very sweet though, I love getting flowers. That's my second bunch in a couple of months, I love it! It's always nice when you do something for someone expecting nothing in return except the pleasure of helping them out..... and they surprise you with a lovely gift. :)

Melster-lack of symptoms is nothing to worry about i have had 7 pregnancies all of them with no symptoms what so ever no m/s no sore boobs just the normal premenstral feeling and i have had a m/c at 7 weeks and it was no different then my other pregnancies other than i started to bleed the only thing i get after i have a BFP is period cramping for a few weeks then it stops and my boobs get all vainy and bigger but not until about 10-12 weeks so every women is different.
Forshelby-I also had a very busy weekend i worked 10 hours saturday came home cooked dinner took the kids for a late afternoon swim then home to bed woke up sunday at 4:30am to go back to work for a 9 hour shift i was so tired by the time i got home i passed out on the lounge while DH cooked dinner and made hedgehog slice for the kid's and ironed their school uniform god love him so my weekend went by in a blur.
I have put on my 1st kilo and feel awful i was already 4 kilos heavier with little miss then all my other pregnancies because of the ivf and i feel so uncomfortable god knows how i will feel in a few months time.
-
Ferrals - Agh, what a busy weekend for you! Here I was whinging I was tired and I didn't even have to work. When you say first kilo, are you saying you hadn't put on any weight until now? :o jealous!! I think I've put on about 7kg... ugghhhhh... and I was already a couple of kilos overweight before all this. I hate that word, overweight. I'm soooo looking forward to reclaiming my body after this baby comes. My goal is to lose all the baby weight, plus another 10 to get back to my former glory. Of course, that'll probably take a year or so, but hey, its nice to have a goal. :)
AFM - Just had a lovely float around in the pool and bubby kicked up a storm. :) Also, the neighbour kids have discovered I have a pool after hearing my niece making a racket in there yesterday....... and now every so often I'm seeing little eyes peeping through my fence and little fingers pointing. LOL. The littlest one was showing her mum just a few minutes ago. It makes me want to leave an inflatable pool set on their doorstep for xmas. Would that be weird?
-
Forshelby-Yes it is the 1st kilo since i got my BFP but it is on top of the few i put with the ivf so all up i am 4 kilos heavier than i was before i lost Abbi so i suppose that is not to bad but i feel really uncomfortable i have never been this big 66kgs on a 160cm frame and my legs just don't like carrying the extra weight my feet ache at work.
And the pool idea is sooo nice they would love it.
-
Ferrals - Honey I am going to make you feel SO good about yourself it's not even funny. Ok, here goes. I was about 70kg (on a fat day) before getting pg. (In my former glory I was 52kg and felt fantastic) I am 163cm tall. I am aware that 64kg is the highest acceptable weight for my height. (our height) I am now 77kg according to my last drs visit. I have never been this big! 66kg is not big! You are a sexy mumma! You weigh less than I did before I got pg. My BMI says I'm obese, thankfully I'm pg, so I'm ignoring that little fact for my sanity! My feet hurt all the time. My ankles swell. My little frame is struggling to lug around this extra weight too. Imagine carrying around another 10kg on top of how you feel now, LOL.
In short: You're still a totally reasonable weight, most likely totally stunningly sexy, and I am a marshmallow. Don't pity me, I'm telling you all this so you can feel great about yourself. You deserve it after the crap you've put up with this pg! Enjoy being a yummy mummy :)

dont worries ladies....im only 5 weeks and from the mc and this pregnancy i think i have put on about 6kils already........arrrrfrggggggggggggg i worked so hard to loose the 30 something i put on with dd.....im at the water world now trying to hide my belly
thanks ladies......think im going through the scared stage at the moment....its really starting to get to me now......
-
Forshelby-god luv ya you have put a smile on my face and you have made me feel better thanks and i cant believe you were 52 kilos i dont think i have been 52kg since i was 12 lol oh well as long as we have healthy bubbies that is all that matters we can go into a BB weightloss thread together after our bubs are here.
Melster-we all went through that stage and i am now in another scared stage of stillbirth so i guess it's never ending.

i lost 45kgs from November 08 to November 09. Then had xmas, 9weeks of pregnancy of the ectopic and chest surgery to remove a nasty mole.. then a few weeks of being in the dumps from the ectopic and the start of a new pregnancy... Im now 32weeks and have put on 20+kgs!!! OMG I am 6foot 2inches so have hidden it a bit but im REALLY starting to hate it!
Its funny i was FAT when i fell with my other three kids and loved my body cause suddenly i wasnt FAT anymore i was pregnant IYKWIM? But now im still LIGHTER now then when i fell with DD1 but i feel the FATTEST i have ever been! Weird, but i so miss my exercise and have sat a pretty tough plan to stick to once baby is born. Im not worried about IF i will lose, i know i am no longer that same person, im not really that worried about how long it will take (I have a great PT) Im just NOT happy about how FAT i feel NOW! Oh well thats my whine and i have only told you the numbers to make you all feel better!! hehe
-
Im 79kg so fat already but havent put any on yet and hoping to keep the weight gain small
Do you all get weighed at your appointments my new ob does i dont like that part!
-
Hilarious - I love you guys!
Tegam - You are amazing to lose those kgs... it's hard when they creep on. I lost a stack and got super fit but the past couple of years being preg, and then bed rest... I think some of it crept back. Urgh. I plan to be back playing sport in March, so I will need to get my fitness back. I am now walking about 45 - 60 mins at least 3 times per week, and am no where near as tired afterwards. I tried to run the other day - just a few steps, but wasn't ready. Too much pain. Oh well, will keep trying. Hey when's your net scan? How are things feeling?
Forshelby - love the flowers! yay for you. Am loving the little passenger kicking up a storm in the pool. Not weird about the pool for the kiddies either.
Kell - thankfully the obs i saw doesn't do weights - he says it's not medically of value and it just does patients heads in . A man after my own heart. Look at you 16 weeks now.
Ferals - I can't believe no preg symptoms... lucky you in a way.
Melster - hope the worry is going and you are just having a nice time. Some of my fondest memories of my preg with Amelia are the things we got to do together.
S & S - I am not sure if I said congrats on your preg.
Jude - how are you going?
Multitasking right now - tv, BB and "sleep" ( well won't be too far away). Take care mummas.
