Leigh they have to be turning 5 before 30th April here in VIC....so she will be one of the oldest because we are keeping her back a year and also rebecca will start the following year!
Hope you are all doing well We're going along fantastially but life is very hectic!
Ruby is so active (right now she's under the desk getting into stuff so I have to make it quick like usual) and she shadows me everywhere. If she sees a drawer open it has to be shut. This includes the dishwasher when I'm trying to stack it and even the detergent drawer on the washing machine when I'm trying to fill it She spends a bit of time screaming outside the laundry door lately lol.
Bugger she's ripped off her nappy *groans* Got to go get ready for playgroup now so I'll try to remember to come back and catch up properly with you all. Famous last words I know
Just a quick one from me coz I'm at work. We're all going well at our end of the world. Sienna is a full-on handful at the moment, into absolutely everything and very, very cheeky!!! "No" is a common word in our household, and it's rarely coming from me
We love her to bits, she's such a joy....most of the time, lol
Our house is in full-swing. Hubby has been flat out painting, usually til after midnight most nights, and I'm there whenever I can get my mum/MIL/SIL to look after Sienna. Hubby reckons we can give notice to our real estate agent to move out of our rental, which is 21 days, but I'm a little hesitant, we don't have the kitchen installed yet, and I don't want to be surviving with a kettle and a toaster!!
Good to hear from you Raven - I'll click on your facebook link and send you a friend request when I get home (work computers have banned fb, smart move, lol).
kate, I get shocking headaches when I'm on the sugar tablet section of my pill, so hopefully the withdrawal is all that's causing your headaches - good luck in falling, exciting stuff!!! xx
Mel - Did you end up poas yet? Can't wait to hear if you did. Hope you and the girls are well. Coz your girls are close in age what double pram do you have? I will need to buy a new pram, something that can accommodate Lara as well. Do you have any recommendations?
Raven - Good to hear from you, sounds like Ruby is going great guns!
Melly - Yay on your house being almost finished. You must be so excited. Have you given notice to your real estate yet? Hope Sienna is well.
Hi to everyone else, hope you and your bubs are all well!!!
Lara and I are sick with a cold at the moment and I am so over it. We are both miserable and being pregnant there isn't much I can take for it. I am hoping we are better soon. I really need to vacuum the floor but just don't have any energy to do it.
Gotta go, sorry its a shortish post, gotta pick DD1 up from school!
Hey Leigh...this is what I posted in my April 07 thread...too much to type so just copy and paste! I have a phil and teds double.....
As for us...girls are going well. Olivia is in her single bed and has slept fantastically in it. Yesterday she fell asleep for 20 minutes in the car and I struggeled to get her to bed by 930 last night. Shes growing so big and her language is great. I must get her onto whatever Dylans doing on the computer. Rebecca is great too. Her sleep is crap at the moment. I think shes about to cut her eye teeth. Her poo is revolting and burns her bum. Shes walking/running/climbing. Her words are coming along, so much so the other night Adam and I heard her say clearly as she was screaming in her cot...i want to get out....twice! I have since heard her say get out while shes in there. She hates going to bed at the moment and its taking her and hour and a half just to go to sleep at night. Hopefully tetth will change it all!
We finally got our completed house plans back today after 4/5 months of being stuffed around. Now we are sending them off for quotes and hopefully within the next 2 to 3 weeks we should have a price...then bank then build! Yay!
As for the ttc.... well! I hadnt got Af back from the m/c. We just went for it like rabbits! My hair has been falling out and then over the weekend my nipples were burning, I have been weeing a lot and am a bit tired. So i tested on Monday...wouldnt you know it...BFP. Then again yesterday...BFP. Its very strong. The positive line came up before the wee covered the window and before it got to the control line. Its so much darker than the control line too. And compared to the tests that I did with the m/c, its very different. I am not excited yet, not going to get too excited. I have booked in an appointment to see my gp next tuesday. I will definately need to have a scan because I have no idea how far I would be. I did have some blood stained c/m at the start of the month, so ? implantation bleeding? I suspect I am 5 weeks along. I feel different to the m/c with more symptoms. I actually feel pregnant. Scared! I havent told anyone yet, just a few different threads here. I wont make an announcement til the scan. Its kind of funny because my friend whos son is 2 days older than Becca, she also had a m/c at the same time as me. Then on tuesday morning over the net she asked me to do a test....shes also pregnant again! Anyway. thats me. I am utd again. No telling anyone though
And...
Just an update...thought I would go in to see the gp today to make sure I havent got a uti...I dont! The pg test he did came up positive straight away. I got my bloods taken and my hcg levels are 8482, which indicates that I am somewhere between 6 and 7 weeks pg!!! So am going to have a scan tomorrow to have a look and hopefully see a beating heart and give me an edd! Its all very exciting now! Just to give you a comparison on my m/c pregnancy, my levels reached maximum of 750ish...so its a good sign And I feel ordinary today! Ok I am getting a little excited WOOOOHHOOOO
Mel, I am sooooo excited for you!!! I am sure everything will be fine this time. But I've had two miscarriages & know how nervous you can be about being pregnant again. Great hcg numbers too, maybe it's twins??? I can't wait to hear how your scan goes, don't forget to post & fill us in on all the details. You are so lucky falling pregnant again straight away. I am over the moon for you.
Thanks Leigh, am consider myself very lucky to fall pregnant so quickly. I only stopped bleeding 5 weeks ago, so must have ovulated straight away! Its nerve wrecking times and every niggle I feel and every time I go to the toilet I am expecting to see blood. I need to be able just to breath a bit! I suppose tomorrow should make me feel better..i hope! You are the second person who has mentioned twins! I doubt it but anything is possible. My mums side has twins and triplets! We have only planned for 3! Our new house plans only have 3 bedrooms....so its got to be only one in there!!! I just hope it sticks. I will let you know how the scan goes when I get home tomorrow. Its at 130pm, so I will pop in around 3 or 4.... depends also on what time my mum leaves. SHe has no idea I am pg and am just getting her to watch the girls for an appointment!! If all is well, I am hoping to hold out on telling family til Olivias b'day, which is on the 1st April. I'll be ?12 weeks then. So only another 6ish weeks.
Melissa - Huge congratulations to you, that is fantastic news, wishing you a wonderful sticky and healthy pregnancy!!! Looking forward to hearing how your scan went.
Leigh - Wow - your pregnancy is going along so quickly, 18 weeks, that is great, hope you get the 2nd trimester burst of energy soon!!
Mellybelly - how exciting for you - not long till you move into your new home.
Kate - good luck on TTC...I know exactly what you mean about not being able to love another bub like your first...I felt the same way right throughout my pregnancy with Finn ....but when he came along it was instant love ...now I wonder how if I have a 3rd if I could love them as much as DD & DS lol...
Well, we are all fine, DD is being a bit of a pork chop when it comes to going to bed at night - becomes very tiring when she doesn't want to sleep and it is 9.30 at night, I have tried all sorts of tactics argh....little Finn is walking, eating well, seems to have four of his molars coming through at once so his sleep ain't that great at the mo - oh well
Okay, better go and get ready for the day, hi to all
I couldnt get on to BB all yesterday for some reason! I had my scan, all was well. She was able to see it from the outside and a heartbeat too, but the machine couldnt pick up the heartbeat, so she did the "dildo cam". I am measuring 5 weeks 3 days. So effectively the day I stopped bleeding is sort of what you would classify as my LMP going on a due date of 18th October. So she saw the heart beating and it was a bit slow, however she reassured me that it was ok because its more than likely that the heart has just started to beat. She said I was on the borderline of seeing it or not...so I am lucky. I got pregnant off my right ovary, which sounds right because I had pains there! So I am feeling somewhat confident! Especially with high hcg levels. Anyway better move...my girls are making a mess!
Mel, that is the best news! I am sooo happy for you. What a relief that it is only one bub. Don't worry about the heart rate being slow. With this bub I had a scan at exactly 6wks coz I was bleeding & the heart rate was only 99 bpm, I was stressing coz I knew it was low & coz of the bleeding but the lady said the same as yours, that it wouldve only just started beating & they start off really low. I'm sure you have one sticky baby in there. If you go overdue you might have bub on Lara's bday - 26th oct.
Thanks girls. Its good to know about the heart rate starting off slow. this little poppet was at 104 yesterday. I should have really waited another week for the scan....but couldnt help myself! I think i will end up with an early October bub, Olivia was a week early and Rebecca was 10 days early. I might get it on the 10/10/2010...that would be too cool! I am already thinking its a girl. I wonder if i could do a suprise this time.
Mel - I am going to try my hardest to not find out the sex this time. My 20 wk scan is in less than 2 wks now. DH keeps telling me that he reckons I will cave in and find out but I really, really want a surprise & this is my last chance. The suspense will kill me but it will be nice to find out once its born. I am stumped on what I am having. With both girls I thought they were boys at the beginning & I was wrong. I think this bub is a boy too so its probably another girl. I think its just wishful thinking this time about the boy coz a boy would be nice after two girls. The heart rate is always high though which they say is a girl (it was right for both my girls) I am craving savory though, someone told me that is meant to mean boy.....who knows. I am just praying that the baby and I make it through alive and well. Praying I don't go into labour before my caesar date.
When are you going for another scan? At 12 wks? What due date did they give you?
Again Mel congrats!
I feel with Bella straight after my MC too - they seem to be sticky ones!
Well I am now 6 days into the 2 Week Wait! Its driving me crazy!! But the days go so fast!
Bella getting her 2 left side molars and not eating muxh or sleeping - bit tiereing! Never mind! Have to take her for her 12 month injections on Tuesday not looking fwd to it! Have been a bit slack but better late than never i guess.
Leigh - glad you are going well! Wow nearly 20 weeks! Excellent!
Boo Boo = thinks sound like they are going great! I hear you on the molars and sleeping thing!
Well Bella has just gone down - fingers cossed she stays there! DH and I are going to watch a movie!
Kate - Wow, the 2 week wait, it always used to drag for me. Fingers crossed you get a bfp. When do you think you will test? I always tested early, I couldn't help myself, even though I knew a bfp probably wouldnt show up, however I was lucky enough to get bfp's at 8 & 9 DPO. Can't wait to hear your results!!!
