Pregnancy after miscarriage or loss ~ September 2010

[Mildez]

Reet I hope you have a beautiful Ob appointment today.

Kellbell shame you are waiting a little longer for your scan instead of today. Just think how developed bub will be next week when you have it. If you lived near me I could have done a scan for you over the weekend lol. I've been practicing using the ultrasound machine at work. Not game enough to try on myself but incase I can't see it and panick. Hope your new Ob has the machine in his office also.

Ferrals I am pleased to hear your feeling a little more positive about this pregnancy. Your princess sounds perfect.

Not much to report from me. Now 13+4 woohoo slowly slowly getting there. Bubs has gone all quiet on me which still freaks me out although I know its completely normal. Had such a boring weekend at work I spent time playing with the doppler on myself and could hear bubs HR so I guess everything is progressing well.

Mildez- I want ur job!! (or atleast to live near u and be ur friend! ) U/s machine and doppler right there for u to play with! I wld become really obsessed with checking! haha. U lucky thing

Will be back later on! xx

reet i did not mean to make you scared or nervous that is the last thing i want to do.

With me people have been giving me things and my b/f has been saying i dont know why people are not waiting till the baby is born something bad can happen between now and then. When i just got myself into a postive mod. In two days i have my next dr appt just the mesure my stomach and listen to the hb and check to see how my dieabities is going .

welcome to the new people you will love it here

Oh no angelfish i didnt mean that badly! All i meant was i thought maybe after the 12 week mark the anxiety and fear will just miraculously disappear.. but im finding that probably wont be the case!

Thats a shame that ur bf is being negative like that doesnt help calm ur fears. Has he been coming to the drs appointments and u/s's with u?? If he hasnt make sure u start dragging him along with u.. hopefully then he will believe that this pregnancy is going just how it shld be and u will meet ur healthy baby very soon.
If u start being positive and believing that everything is going to be fine then hopefully he will catch on to those good happy vibes and he will become more positive too.

Kell- Hopefully ur ob. has an u/s machine in his room and ur mind can be put at ease for atleast the next few days! It normally takes about 3 days for the fear to come back into me.. so annoying! I wish it wld just stay away. I dont want to worry this whole pg!

Forshelby- Aww that is sweet that ur dp was singing that to ur tummy! I hope ur plane trip to melb. is uneventful and the waits at the airports arent too long. Enjoy ur time away!

Ferrals- Ill defintely be thinking of u next monday and sending u all the luck in the world. If everything comes back fine with that u/s then will u be happy not to get the amnio?

AFM- Just about to get ready for ob. appointment.. i am trying to make myself go to the toilet before i go but nothing seems to be working (tmi!) i am so so clogged up..once again! Im going to weigh probably an extra 2 kgs if i dont manage to go! And my stomach looks big from all the bloatedness! At my last ob. appointment there was a lady who was 13 weeks pg and she was so so thin. I might wear one of my floaty tops today

Reet - he has only been to the 20 week scan he already had two girls with his ex wife they are 10 and 9 and he does not feel that he needs to be there. He is really dispointed that he is not getting his boy. I am happy becouse i have been told so many times this would never happen. thank you

Reet-having a meltdown now we spoke to the geneticist today and they said SLO can have a wide variation and siblings effected with it can show no obvious signs or all of them like Abbi so they want me to have an amnio so we are booked in for 10am monday morning and the results will take about 3 days OMG!!!! what if she has it!

[forshelby]

Ferrals - Things are looking up so far.... I really hope all is ok and you get that good news you're waiting for. I think them reccomending you have the amnio isn't neccesarily a bad sign, but I can understand how it would make you worry. Try to take things one step at a time...... FX all goes well and you can breathe a huge sigh of relief.

Mildez - I agree with Reet, you're luck to have access to a u/s and doppler whenever you want.

Reet - The trip down here wasn't too bad. There was an annoying lady sitting next to us, on the aisle seat who wouldn't get up and let us off the plane! I swear we sat there for a good 10 minutes before she even looked like moving. Oh and the taxi driver was a bit on the crazy side, driving in 2 lanes at once etc... I was a bit edgy after that, lol. Anyhoo we made it and I'm exhausted already, and trying not to worry about my little puppy and kitty. I hope they aren't scared without us there. Don't feel too self conscious about your belly...... and maybe try a sip of coffee to get things going. Works for me! LOL. Good luck for your appointment

Angelfish - I'm sorry your partner isn't being very involved or supportive..... that will all change once baby arrives though.

AFM - Too tired to update much.... travelling really takes it out of me these days! I'm looking forward to a delicious roast dinner, and then a nice sleep. I think my feet are actually swollen. They seem just a little puffy.

[Hope.Positive.Love]

Forshelby: Thanks for asking about Audrey - she is an angel still, I seriously hope she stays like this.. Enjoy your pregnancy I wish I was pregnant again lol DP can't wait for baby number 2.. Oh help me now, I think we'll be having a bunch a kids if it were up to him...

Ferrals: First, YAY for a Girl!! That is wonderful news, Second, try try try and stay positive! As Dory said, talk talk talk talk and talk some more with your husband, I know you've booked for the amnio but still talk to him about your concerns... Don't think that the results will be bad, try and stay positive, and focus on that precious little gilr inside you, if and only IF the results come back and they're not the best, then it's time to think about what you and DH are going to do, but right now you just focus on that lovely little bundle of joy in there!! If wish I could give you the biggest hug!!!!

Welcome all the New Belly's - Great to see new Bubba's on the way!

OMG!!!! what if she has it!

Then all our hearts will break into a million fragments. This way you will know! Bring on thursday next week so we can all celebrate!
