2014 January Rainbows

Emmy I posted on your journal but I'll say it again here I think that she is related to the specialist I saw two weeks ago same crap was said to me although my OB has said no such thing to me

I think you look great Hun we are not and won't be the first or last people to be over weight to have babies my BMI is over 30 too and she made me feel like crap am going to talk to my dr about her bc she has me paranoid as hell. ugh it makes me so mad that women drs can be so freakiin mean. The thing that got me fuming is that the "specialist" was on the heavier side too so really no room to talk

Am glad your baby is doing good though again so sorry for such a horrible dr
 
Emmy- what an absolute cow! Think I'd be making a complaint! Glad baby ok though. Such a rediculous thing to say about you taking the nutrition- that's crap, babies are basically little parasites taking what they need from us!!! There's no way you could be depriving your baby unless you were not eating at all. I'm very angry for you! If I said something like that about someone's pet you could guarantee I'd be getting sued!!
 
So sorry Emmy for what you had to go through at the hands of that doctor. As Lucy said you are not the only one, the first or the last to be pregnant with a BMI of over 30. Your doctor is just plain mean. I normaly have to deal with people being horrified that i am having a baby at 41 as if i will ask for hand outs from any of them to look after this baby. By the way my BMI is over 30, i am over 35yrs and i am being monitored as i was monitored in my 20's.
 
Emmy- That sounds like an AWFUL experience. I'm so sorry that you went through that! :(

AFM- I've been having strange (at least strange to me) symptoms. I have severe back pain, upwards of 8-12 leg cramps a night, thigh pain and frequent headaches...I know, I know...I'm just complaining. Things are lightening up painwise, but all weekend it was terrible. The GREAT news is that I planned a 3d ultrasound!! and I am feeling Violet more often than ever!!!! GROW BABY GROW!! I will take the pain that this pregnancy causes as long as Violet comes and is a happy, healthy, thriving baby! Every week we keep getting closer!! YAY US!

Haha your pets probably get better treatment than pregnant women!
 
That is ridiculous Emmy!!! That lady was full of it for sure and had no clue what she was talking about! That is absolutely impossible for you to steal all of your baby's food because you have a high BMI. Baby will definitely get what they need, I wouldn't worry about that at all. :hugs:
 
Thanks ladies for all your reassurance :hugs:

I'm having an absolute nightmare :cry::cry: I can't believe what I have done! It was the first day of school yesterday so when I got home I was exhausted and just as I was going to bed I wasn't looking where i was going and stepped straight on to a blunt nail that was sticking up out of the floorboard, it must have come loose and I didn't see. I was bare foot so it went straight through the sole of my foot and because I was walking it dragged along and cut all my foot. It was bleeding so much and so painful! But the biggest problem is that now I can't put any weight on my foot so I can't walk, it's excruciating! So I had to tell my headteacher I can't come in today. She wasn't impressed. But I don't know what to do I can barely hobble around the flat, plus I'm 21 weeks pregnant so it's not exactly easy. Problem is I dont think this is going to rapidly heal over night and I'm worried I'm not going to be able to walk for the rest of the week! :cry::cry::cry::cry: I can't believe how stupid I am!
 
Oh no Emmy that sounds painful. Have you seen a doctor?
Don't worry about school, if you can't walk you can't walk! Just make sure you get it treated xxx
 
Oh gosh Emmy- How painful!!!

And I guess I stayed a papaya this week..I'll take it!
 
Oh Emmy I am so sorry about the nasty dr you had I would call and report her to the medical board if I was you. I really hope your foot heals soon make sure you get to a dr.
 
Happy new weeks ladies !!!!

Emmy :hugs: it's not your fault Hun accidents happen and like the ladies said get it taken care of hope it helps fast
 
Ouch! Emmy I hope you're alright. Don't beat yourself up, I'm clumsy too and even worse when pregnant.
 
I went to the doctors and they reckon my tetanus is still in date and they bandaged it all up for me, when I attempt to walk on it, it's extremely painful and starts bleeding again. I hate calling in sick to work but I can't walk :shrug:
Feeling sorry for myself :cry:

Happy new fruits/weeks ladies
 
Had another U/S today. Last week they didn't get enough images at my 20-week, but the tech today said that last week baby looked as a girl (so that's 2 confirmations). Again today it was pretty obvious on the screen there was no penis.

I finally got my potty shot and a shot of her sucking her thumb! :)

Congrats! Aww it's so cute that they suck their thumbs!
 
I used to suck my thumb when I was little for a long time not sure if my son does too LOL we haven't caught him yet
 
Congrats on the new weeks ladies!!!!

:hugs: Emmy! Hope your foot heals fast! Take it easy and be careful! <3

Congrats Lyndzo!!! SO cute! <3

AFM, had a good appointment today. Not much going on at the appointment today, just measuring and listening to baby's heartbeat. I did get my TDAP vaccine (for whooping cough), so got that out of the way now. Next appointment is October 2nd and then I start every 2 weeks! My 28 week appointment will be my glucose test (definitely not looking forward to that one) and another ultrasound to see if the placenta has moved.
 
Hayley was sucking her little fingers at our anatomy ultrasound more than once :) <3 SO cute!
