Lynn: I have everything I can possibly crossed for you tomorrow. I know too well how nervous/scared/frightened it can be leading up to a scan. Don't forget, before long you will start to feel Hope move and then you will be able to get your own reassurance every day. I hope MIL is easy on you tomorrow, as I said, if you want me there just call. Even if you decide just as you are on your way. I'm good at keeping MIL under control
Mel: In pain, what's up? I hope you are ok. If you get a chance drop in and let us know how you are. I am going to call tomorrow night so if you don't feel like a call, just let me know.
Kat: 6 days late, that is fantastic. You must have a lot of self control to hold of testing. I hope so much this is a BFP for you. About the Ob question, what I did when I moved to Sydney was to call the major hospitals, ask to speak to the head midwife and asked their opinion. I wanted someone who had experience in what I had been through, was sensitive to me being so crazy. It was very difficult to explain my situation over and over again but it was worth it. I then researched their recommendations and came across the Ob I now have. He has been fantastic. You can also post as Mel suggested and see if you can get any ideas from the BB girls.
Klee: I hope that darn cold buggers off soon. You poor thing. I am sending you some bit *get better* sympathy.
Well I have finally updated my mood to mellow. I saw the chiro again and boy do I feel better. I have to go twice a week for a fortnight and then weekly until the birth. She is fantastic so if anyone in the Sydney area wants a recommendation for a Chiro, who is safe during pregnancy, I'd be happy to pass on her details.
I have managed to get some stuff for our move organised today. Carpet cleaning, pest fumagation, booking trucks etc, it all takes plenty of time but at least I can do it in my PJ's and at home. I think I might finish work in 3 weeks not four, I am worried I am going to be so bored and I am scared of being alone with my thoughts, but at the same time I need to listen to my body. Only 6 sleeps until DH is home... again... Yay.
Re: "In Pain" mood... When I got to work this morning I started getting really severe cramping in my lower pelvis, I mean really severe. Borderline to the point I was going to go home. It was painful even just walking around but much worse when sitting down. It last full on for a couple of hours and then settled down a little but I have felt slightly crampy on and off all day. Its almost like really severe pre menstrual symptoms, and it makes me wonder if I am going to get a visitor over the next couple of days, slightly early but stranger things have happened. Oh well anyway, I am sure I will live and it isnt as bad tonight so I will have to change my mood!
Katti - I tried to send you an email yesterday and it bounced back so I tried again tonight and it bounced back again. Then I tried to send you PM (before I read the thread) and it gave me this message: "The following errors occurred when this message was submitted: Katti81 has chosen not to receive private messages or may not be allowed to receive private messages. Therefore you may not send your message to him/her." If you havent chosen not to receive the messages I am wondering if your message box is full? I know you can only receive 10 messages at 1 time. Anyway, if you want to email me, my email is lilleymel@aol.com. that you ARE 6 days late! Surely you cant resist testing? If you do your a better woman that me
Spring - Thanks I am ok, just a bit of a wuss probably. Tomorrow night is great, look forward to it (hopefully no medical emergencies this time LOL). I should be home by 7... Well done on getting some stuff organised, I just hope you are still resting up - drs orders remember
Lynn - Good luck tomorrow, Im sure you wont need it but youve got my positive vibes flowing your way all the same. I hope you can get a good night sleep, I can only imagine how scary everything must be
Klee - Poor thing about the sniffles, must be all that standing out in the cold on Saturday night Was really good catching up, its nice to have a few laughs. OMG the mudslide was delicious - I will have that for dessert any old time!
Hey Saph - I dont think there is anywhere you can read everyones stories but we can probably each fill you in a little, my story is...
My son Nicholas was stillborn on 5 Sept last year at 36w1d. He was our first baby. We found out a little while after that I have anticardiolipin antibodies which is a blood disorder that caused a clot to form behind the placenta. It was tough, actually it still is
We started trying for our 2nd baby as soon as we were given the all clear, but to this date we have not succeeded. We are now going through the processes to begin IVF. They cannot find anything medically that is causing our infertility - our fertility specialist calls it "idiopathic infertility" - YAY! It is sooooo frustrating - we were ready for a baby over a year ago and by all accounts had one only for him to taken away from us, and now to get that extra slap in the face by not being able to conceive another...
Anyway thats a run-down... I am sure all of the other girls will be happy to fill you in about themselves.
I hope you can find this group as supportive as I have, I have to say I dont know where I would be without the beautiful ladies I have met through BB (probably the loony-bin), they are absolute god-sends
