May God bless you
I've not experienced this situation but I couldn't let it go without posting...
:hug: for you and I know you'll find a way through this.
Hi Squidipa,
I'm sorry you are feeling so down.
I think we had some similar issues. Thankfully my bub seems to be doing fine, but I am spending a lot of time at medical appointments. I have also just found out I have shingles and am feeling pretty sick and miserable. I'm relying on my husband just to keep on top of the everyday jobs around here. And I have to keep on asking my family to look after DD so I can get to my scans, OB and GP appointments.
So I'm not in the best frame of mind either. A lot of this pregnancy has been about stress and worry and it makes me forget about the new baby who will be arriving soon. I have been trying to focus more on the baby lately. I had some fun packing a hospital bag for the baby and buying a few little things like dummies and little hats.
The other thing that makes me feel better is doing something nice with DH and DD. It is hard to be sad dancing around with an almost 2 year old.
:hug:
:hug: to you, sorry I can't offer more than that. I am curious though...I saw IUGR in another post and just wondered what it meant...
eta if you don't feel like going into detail, that's fine!
Intra Uterine Growth Retardation
It is when bub doesn't grow very well while in utero. I think due to not getting enough nourishment because of placenta or cord issues. At least that is how it applied to me.
May God bless you
Thanks!! I tried to work it out myself, but baby brain wouldn't work!
:hug: Squidipa. Hang in there hun, you have been, and are doing a wonderful job of baking your bub.......look how far you've come! I can't help you with your question, but I'm thinking of you :hug:
May God bless you
Hi girls, Squid, Holly and Janie...my babies growth is not restricted but I still can't help feeling depressed..I think because the journey has been so stressful and we still won't know for sure what is going on until after she is born.. I think it is quite normal to feel this way and I hope that afer our babies are born that life will settle into some normality.. Holly I have been going nuts on Ebay and buying way to much little stuff..but when it arrives it gives me a lot of pleasure, its a great idea, maybe is time to get some clothes out and have a look/play with them, picture baby wearing them etc.
Squid the main thing is you are aware of how you feel and if it does'nt get better after the birth, talk to the MCHN or a doc, I will be meantioning..re: myself.. beforehand so they keep an eye on me.
Janie hang in there...bedrest sucks, but at least you know you are doing as much as you can for bubs.:clap:
May God bless you
:hug:
