    Azza - how did your scan go? I hope your going home today. xx

    AFM - i ended up in hospital yesterday with viral gastro - they initially thought it may be listeria infection but thankfully not. The only problem was my bp was high and i have protein and blood in my urine so plan is to recheck urine and bp again tom so all will be ok. I'm feeling soooooo much better today the boys are still very quiet so just resting on the couch today.

    Hi to everyone else - Jen i wrote to you in the other thread - hope your travelling ok.

    Hi ladies,
    Well scan went well my cervix length is still 1.6 so it hasn't gotten worst. I still need to have weekly scan due to my little man being little. They are both very active. AND im still in hosi arrrrrrh I haven't spoken to my OB yet but she is popping in tomorrow they said at the scan that it is a very important time in my pregnancy they have to watch me and get me past the 28 week mark (so does that mean I have to stay here till 28 weeks ?????) I will be asking OB that tomorrow.

    Bella what blood in your urine Im glad you finshed work early get that bp down please and stay away from the hospital. I hope everything is ok please let us know how everything goes tomorrow. Im glad to hear you are relaxing on the couch.

    Midwiferystudentmummy if the twins come before 34 weeks then Womans and Childrens if after 34 weeks I will be having them at Calvary hospital where are you doing your midwifery?

    Helen please let me know what the book is called I need something to read, I will send DH out to hunt for it. I agree with you we do cope with what we have I acually can't wait for it to happen.

    Jenc I know what you mean with getting use to bedrest I have my little routine but am still finding it hard to sleep through the night I got up at 5.00am and thought that reading my book would put me to sleep an hour later I started to drift off to sleep and was woken by my breakfast coming in. My muscles are starting to feel like they are bruised what about yours? Im sso jealous that you are past you 30 weeks I wish I was there with you. One day I hope those babies of yours are nice and snug in there and not wanting to come out til 38 weeks.

    Rhyb thats great your little bubs are in different sacs and they are beautiful girls thats fantastic we need more girls as most of us are having boys we need abit of balance. I hope they will can make it to full term, what is full term for triplets?

    Take care of yourselves

    ooh! 3 little girls!! how adorable. one of my best friends had a little girl on Friday and I was SO excited. I have been dying to buy tutus and fairy wings

    Well, I'm back in hospy again. I was having yucky BH last night - up to 12 an hour and just wasn't sure what was normal, now that I know I have an irritable uterus. So this morning I called my ob clinic and they told me to come up to the preg assessment unit - again - to check out what was going on.

    Well, it turns out I have been in labour!! Very early stages - no actual dilation yet. But effacement and well, lots of contractions. So, have been given the steroid shots for the boys' lungs, and am on meds to stop the contracs, which I am pleased to say are working a treat. I was getting up to 16 an hour at one point today, and am now down to 4. So it's brilliant news.

    I have no idea what this means now for the rest of my preg - will have a better chat to the ob tomorrow

    thinking of you all
