pqlal~ I have booked my scan darl, but it is my 20 week scan. Thank you for the good luck wishes, means alot to me. My scan is on Thursday the 10th November at 9am.
Hey everyone, I haven't been on BB much lately but thought I'd check in
So exciting to see all of you with your tickers plodding along nicely I'm so happy for you all!
Princess E is doing really well, rolling and babbling, almost 7 months old now!
And guess what! I might be joining you all again soon... very early days yet, so I need lots of sticky vibes, but I've had 5 faint positive tests in the last 3 days, slowly getting stronger, and had bHCG done today so I should get the results tomorrow, was a huge shock as DH didn't want any more kids and was going to be getting the snip soon and I was just starting to come to terms with only having 2 kids. 2 weeks ago yesterday we went on our very late honeymoon (we were married in Jan last year just after the first mc on our journey to have Princess E) and I could have sworn I O'd just before we left (didn't DTD until the third day of our honeymoon, so I'm only on 13dpo today going by that, 3wks 6d, due July 7th 2012 - which happens to be DHs birthday, he is not impressed with that lol), so this is very much a surprise.
he MS is already kicking in, feeling very queasy the majority of very day already, boobs are tender and feeling fuller, and this is the first cycle since Princess E was born where I haven't bee so bloated I look like I'm 4 months pregnant lol
So anyway, please keep it hush hush on the rest of BB and on FB as well if you're on my friends list on there, I won't be publicly announcing it until I hit 12wks and the scan says everything is ok.
I thought I'd let you guys know as I realy valued all your support while TTCing and while pregnant with Princess E.
Congrats on the newbies in here!! And thanks for all your congratulations to me for making it to 12 weeks.
Scan went very well today -- phhewww, I was so stressed going in. but BUB very active, nice HB of 143 BPM and all the right limbs and organs. We can finally be excited Not sure about the downs risk yet, but I'm sure it should be fine.
Loops - Oh wow! 12wks already! So excited for you, and very glad your scan went well
afm - Didn't get the results today so peeved. Now somehow I have to make it through the whole weekend until my appointment on monday to find out the results.
At least this mornings test was even stronger - almost as strong as the control line! yay! I don't have any more tests left lol, and no $$ to buy more so I'll have find something to do to keep me occupied.
HPL - Oh I am really so sorry honey I really really hope you're wrong!
S & S - I'm sorry for your m/c I really hope you're able to try again in January. It's not far off, take care of yourself in the meantime. Exercise is good So sweet about your parishioner's gift. What a lovely thing to do!
Clairesmummy - Hope the m/s goes away soon!!! not nice! I hope you don't have to do insulin, but if that's what's necessary think of it as a sacrifice for your bubba. Isn't hayfever the pits? I've been taking Polaramine cause that's safe. Good luck for your scan! How rude of that bus driver!
JennaJayen - Glad to hear your little girl is doing so well How cute! Congratulations on the new little surprise!!! DH will get used to it Hope you get the results soon!
Loops - Yay! Glad your scan went well It's always such a relief isn't it?
AFM: Well I've had a pretty good week. Can't really recall the start of it so much, lol. That's the baby brain for you. But things got more interesting on Wednesday. I had told Mum earlier in the week that DH and I were planning to go baby shopping on Saturday (which is today and we're about to go soon) and she said "Oh, before you do, come over after work sometime. I have something you might want... although you might not want it until you have a second child." So of course I was very curious! Anyway, I went over on Wednesday and there was a pram! Double pram. One at the back, one at the front, so long, not wide. She had picked it up off a vergeside collection and cleaned it up. She asked the lady why she wasn't selling it and she said that she couldn't be bothered!! This is it here: Love N Care » Blog Archive » hi-rise tandem It's the CLOUD colours. Score!! So DH and I definitely took it. I'm of the opinion that I can use it straight away and why bother waiting for a second child? I'll use the other bit for shopping or whatever. DH thinks we should get a single one and wait until we have a second child to use this one. I reckon I'll see how I go with it first, then if we think it's too much, I'll get a single one and we'll put it in the shed. But cool hey?
Then that evening, I went to my first aqua aerobics class at a local private gym, run by a physiotherapist and only for pregnant women. It was heaps of fun and there were some other newbies too. My colleague at work told me about it but she wasn't there that night. Maybe she'll be there next Wed. But I really enjoyed it and loved feeling so light in the pool. Although it was a bit deceptive.... I felt like it wasn't really working my muscles so I worked harder to 'feel' something. So much fun, but so much pain! I'm definitely not as fit as I used to be. OMG I have been aching ever since. The last ache went away this morning. Panadol has been my friend the last few days. I decided I'm going to go to the local pool and do some of the things from the class by myself every second day or so, just so my body doesn't freak out every Wednesday night, cause it's only once a week.
Other than that, bubs seems to be good. He/she is fluttering away in there and I actually felt it from the outside the other night when I was lying on my side and it was kicking that side. I put my hand there between the bed and my tummy and could feel it with my hand, not just inside! Hope that increases more and more so DH can feel it soon!
Anyway, that's me. Enjoying my long weekend, thanks to the Queen! Gonna go baby shops now
Sorry, I've been flat out so haven't been posting - and sorry for lack of personals, I'm still busy! I finally decided I should do something to make room for this baby So I've spent the afternoon sorting the linen cupboard, DS's cupboard and going through a whole lot of baby stuff. Now there's some room to put some of it away. I've brought in some of DS's 000s so I can go through them too when I'm putting things in the cupboard. I'm tired Just waiting for DH to call so I can see if he can get dinner on the way home, cos I just can't be bothered. DS got fed anyway.
Does it sound weird that it still doesn't feel quite real? I mean the braxton hicks are real, the baby moving is real, but I've had to almost force myself to start getting ready to meet this little bundle. It'll become real soon enough I'm sure!
My scan is on Thursday the 10th November at 9am.
