Really good to hear that the op went well Helen, must be difficult not being able to pick your son up, but so important to rest, great news!
Tildy, how frustrating for you. can you just turn up to the hospital (try & pick a quiet time) and just say you want a scan on the recomendation of your midwife & due to medical history? In the mean time true to be at peace, I'm sure bub is fine, did the sugar hit help get him/her moving?
Hey Cindee, haven't heard from you in a bit, how are you?
Must go, more later.

Hey Girls, just checking in quickly. Sounds like everyone is starting to get emotional about xmas. I know I've been finding it tough. On top of that 2 girls who I work closely with a due any day now. I had 1 baby shower yesterday and another next week. They are both gorgeous ladies and I am completely happy for them but also completely sad for myself. I think I am going to try and get out of next weeks, even though it is my boss. It is all just a bit much hearing people talk about that beautiful smell of newborns and the joy of turning round and seeing bub in the car seat on that first trip home from hospital and... welll... I don't need to say anymore to you girls.
Otherwise I'm feeling good and just hope that together we can hug each other through a really tough time of year that we have to survive without our beautiful babies to love, hold and adore.
Thank God for little Anna, I just keep picturing us all in Katie's shoes this time next year, still missing our bubs like crazy but welcoming new little ones to our lives. fingers crossed!
hi everyone, everything is fine here i go for my ultrasound in a week. but in the mean time from monday, my internet will be shut off as we move on the 8th. so i wont be back on for about two weeks. hopefully sooner. internet providers are slow.
baby is moving quite well, hope to find out what it is soon
hope you all have a great Christmas, if i cant get online before then.
anyway better go, gotta stop these girls from ripping each others hair out
Tildy - just wanted to quickly post to see how you are doing? Have you felt bubs move recently? I hope you get hold of your midwife and get them to take better notice of you. I am thinking of you and I hope that all works out well and you get some reassurance soon.
I am more than happy for Anna to become the poster child for this thread - she can be the symbol of hope for us all!
Tildy, hope when I log on tomorrow you would've posted to say that Kebab kicked the hell out of you all night long. Come one Kebab, mummy needs some reassurance now. Beiron, tell your baby bub to be cooperative!
As for me AF came bursting in totally uninvited today. Beeyotch. My heart dropped a little bit when I saw it (at the work Christmas party no less!) but I'm already looking forward and working out which days I'll likely be jumping David's bones again. Heee.
I ended up going directly in to the gyn clinic's on-call doctor this morning, as my midwife told them to see me right away, and while I was there she called the birthing ward to tell them that they had ****ed up royally. She called me back later to tell me she got really angry with them and asked them "How can you be too busy to do your job?" and she told them that they too often forget that anyone past week 20 is their responsibility and turning me away because they were "busy" was the same as turning away a woman in week 40 and in the middle of giving birth because they were "busy". The reason I didn't just go there, btw, is that they even have a locked door, and if you go to give birth you ring this doorbell and they expect you to have called and been sort of like "invited" first; they do all this to try to prevent people from coming in until they really are ready, but it sucks.
I had used my doppler and found a heartbeat, but the midwife said that lack of movement is a cause for concern even when there is a heartbeat, because lack of movement can signal a fixable problem days before it affects the heartbeat. But they also said that it's not strange for me to feel less movement right now, but that she still had wanted me to be better safe than sorry.
The gyn said that Kebab had turned around and swam toward my back and decided to stay there for a while, so on the scan he saw that Kebab was kicking constantly, just that I can't feel it because all the kicks are going out in the water or towards my spine. This is why the sugar and the poking and everything didn't help. During the scan Kebab sort of flipped around and suddenly I felt a kick that made me jump and go "Ooh!" Today Kebab is giving me no rest, and now that I've finished up my damn software release, I am SOOO on the way home to start the weekend with a very long nap. I am so very very sick of sleeping only 3-4 hours a night, and this didn't help!
Tildy, I am glad to hear that your scan went well. You had me worried about you and Kebab. I am so sorry that you are going to have to deliver at a place like that.
Lan, I am sorry to hear that AF arrived. Next month is going to be a busy one in here. I feel like there is going to be another big wave of BFPs.
So, my ultrasound and appt. went well. The baby is still about 1 week ahead so the doctor told me that he wanted to move my due date up! Yay I gained a week. He also gave me a hard time about having another ultrasound in 2 weeks. He said that I can come in to see him as often as I like but he doesn't need me to get all concerned about another ultrasound. It doesn't really make sense to me, I am going to be crazy waiting 4 weeks for the next ultrasound. Even more so because it is the ultrasound that has always given us bad news. He said after that one I can have as many as I like.
sending you all sticky vibes
