Well I had a fantastic 3 days off. We ended up at Bunnings and bought a whole heap of plants and 3 tomato plants. So we were planting a lot of yesterday.
I had a freak out session yesterday.... I had some discharge which was only a tiny tiny bit, but it was an unusual colour - not pink or red but very strange. Of course with my history I was freaking out thinking this is it, its over..... Its amazing how quickly I do that!!!!!
Anyway havent had anymore, though my lower abdomen feels funny, bit airy and gassy and feel like there is discharge all the time, but there is not..... I think it has something to do with bowel again, as it has been funny the past few days again.
Sue - I do seem to remember being very gassy with my pregnancies, I think it is fairly normal, and I so understand the feeling about the discharge, I used to run to the toilet FAR to often only to find nothing! I even find myself out of habit still checking now (crazy women).
I hope everyone is well, Katie - great Ob appt, how do you feel now that you have had a few more days leave? Has it sunk in that you don't have to go to work?
I have a question to ask you guys..... I had a phone call from a friend this morning asking us to go away with them for 5 days in January on Moreton IS. My first reaction was 'oh how nice to get away from it all' and the house they booked is gorgeous, BUT. I am so paranoid that if I have happened to fallen pregnant this month, we would be on an Island for 5 whole days, what if something went wrong??? I would be around 20 weeks, I don't know what to do as I know DH will just tell me I am being paranoid. I can't help it, when things start to happen with me it is fairly fast (as in labour) and I am SCARED. Then there is the whole other thing of the house not having safety gates etc for my DS who will be 2, and other people not closing doors etc, he has already proven to be an escape artist. Am I being crazy or not? HELP!!!!
Tildy, I was in Melbourne on Thurs & Fri. I used to LOVE Melbourne but unhappily I've had to go to there shortly after both my miscarriage and Hamish's birth so now I get such a horrible vibe from the place.
Helen, I would go. And I can say this because I'm excellent at dispensing advice that I have trouble taking myself. We will always be scared, if not for one reason then another. But no matter how much we fear something, we can't stop it from happening anyway. So please consider going as it would give you a lovely holiday to look forward to and you must believe that your next little baby will be yours to keep.
Rozzie and Tildy, it's the magic 12wk for you guys next week. Can't wait to hear about your little bubs bouncing away at your ultrasounds.
And Katie, what a great ultrasound result. Did you get to see your little girl? How big is she now? Can they tell?
How are you going, Jo? Chugging along during the day and silently dying on the inside at night? I hope you are getting more peace at night. How are you coping with work?
Sue, I totally get the freaking out. To this day I still get a jolt when I see coloured discharge but hopefully as the weeks pass you'll be able to feel more confidence in your miracle baby.
Lan, I wanted to thank you.... you have made me feel a little more confident about my "miracle baby". When you wrote that, I thought, maybe this is the one which is going to be a .
So I am going to start being more positive and I wish my scan was tomorrow and not in 2 weeks (sob sob).
