3rd Time Lucky Club

[OmiOmen]

I think for some people it probably help and helps get things over and done with so you can fully grieve but for others like myself it makes you feel worse. But I guess it would be hard to guess who fits into which category.

 

[Poshie]

Welcome Omi - thanks for dropping by and congrats on your pregnancy. All going to plan by the sound of it and hello nicky, caz and bl :wave:

I got as far as signing the consent firm for a d&c, the day of my 12 wk scan, the day I found out no baby. It was extremely traumatic. As it happened though, I decided I didn't want the general anaesthetic and rang the gynae to say tablets. He said ok, come back in Monday. Anyway on the Saturday I bled on my own and had a natural
very painful mc.

Anyway, enough of that. This is the 3rd Time Lucky Club! Things are going to be fine

How has your pg treated you so far Omi?

Morning ladies. And what a damp dark horrible morning it is too!

Well, I've just rang to make an appt with my doctor only to be told he's on long term leave and not back til next year! So I've got to see some doctor I don't know and hope that he/she is as nice as my doctor. Just so long as they understand my need to have an early scan I don't mind. My gp said I could so I'm assuming it won't be an issue. Bit disappointed that I'm not seeing my usual gp, but hoping it won't be a problem. They'll have my notes after all....

Feeling okay today. Bit cold. Got my new winter coat out for the first time this year.

How's everyone else doing today? Any news to report?

 

[OmiOmen]

My pregnancy is going well thank you. I had awful morning sickness and headaches in the first trimester but they have gone now thankfully. I think I may be getting SPD but it is not too bad if I don't do much (same I have to walk home from doing over-time today). I feel worried now that I am starting to feel more normal again but I did feel real full blown kick 2 days ago!

 

[Poshie]

Hi Omi. Glad to hear things are going well for you. I know they do say that symptoms can wear off some in 2nd Tri. How amazing to feel a kick though! Are you planning to find out sex at 20 weeks?

 

[OmiOmen]

To be honest I was starting to think the symptoms were never going to wear off but was pleasantly surprised when they did. I was so happy to feel the kicks but it scared me at first. I want my husband to be able to feel them too and last night I had my hand on my belly and felt a little kick on the outside so got him to try but the baby just was not playing any more.

I want to find out the sex at my 20 week scan and am hoping the baby co-operates. My LO was very active and they struggled to get the neck measurements for the NT scan so I was sent on walk and to eat/drink something sugary to get the LO to move into a better place and was at the hospital a few hours. So, I get the feeling that my LO will be awkward and not let us know the sex.

Hi Ladies,

Good to hear you are all well! xxx

Evening (or Morning) all!

Saw the Nurse today, Midwife going to call me tomorrow to ask when i would like an NHS scan, then she will book an appt at EPAU for me. So, thats £100 saved on a private scan ;-).

They said with my history i deserve an early scan.....I did pretty much demand it!

Hows everyone else today? x

 

[OmiOmen]

Glad you got an early scan, waiting until the 12 week one and worrying is such a pain. My doctor insisted I had an early scan but when the midwife went to get one the hospital would not allow it!

I am not bad, I did some over time at work (just 4 hours) and was desperate for the loo 30 minutes in and asked to be taken off twice and they did not let me and at least one of the supervisors I asked know I was pregnant.

Thats really mean....its not like we are little school kids anymore!!

 

[cazd]

OMG - that's awful!

 

[shmoo75]

Omi - That is just bloody awful attitude from your supervisors. I would of just said if you don't let me off right now I am either going to stand here and pee myself or, just go as you can't make a pregnant woman not go to the loo when she needs to! Makes me so mad let me at them how bloody dare they?!?!

Poshie - for the 3+ and for booking an appointment. I am testing again tomorrow FX mine says 2-3 or, 3+ too!

Sorry I haven't been on for a few days but my Laptop and Internet connection seem to be having a serious bout of PMS I'm not doing too bad. We told our parents on Sunday both our Mum's knew that I was(I knew that they would both know before I told them)peeing loads and, also started with the indegestion! Can do without that thank you very much!

 

[ineedaseed]

hey poshie!

big hugs xxx

 

[Poshie]

Thanks for dropping in Ineeda I do miss my ttc buddies!

Not much to report from me today - I'm 5w4d or 5w5d (tbc) Fairly busy at work today. Feeling pretty okay but as the day wears on I tend to feel a bit icky/off and tired. Looking forward to my doctor's appointment on Thursday and I have Friday off work so I might do some xmas shopping or something. Most important to me right now, is getting that scan date through

 

[Buds]

Woohoo good to see you're all set with your doc appointment. And the scan will be here in no time! Hope you're generally all ok. Miss you...can't wait til I get my internet up and running!!!

 

[lil_angel]

Wooo....glad you booked you dr's appointment. Not long to wait now im sure youll be gettin your scan date soon Hope everythings ok with you? Have fun shopping on friday! I feel like a need some time off work!! Only 2weeks to go after this one till 2 weeks off

 

[mum2joe]

Hellooooo 3rd timers

Well Sian my midwife has just rung
She was lovely -she was my midwife with Joe & I was in touch with her briefly with the last 2 losses so didn't have to go into it all thank god.

She asked me for my dates so told her what I was today & my EDD, *you've got it all sorted* she laughed *fine, not going to argue with that* - the joys of being over-informed

I bottled the scan ladies, sorry I was offered an emergency one through the EPAU but I just couldn't face going through that place again, too many awful & terrible memories.
So she is *rushing through* an ordinary scan appointment & reckons we should get one in the next couple of weeks

She is coming round to the house to book me in, either tomorrow or Thurs, as she is then on holiday.

Still soooo sick & knackered & longing to be able to hang up my (oYo) on a hook for a few days as they are so sore & heavy!

Hugs & kisses to you all, hope you are all tired & pukey

I almost walked out from behind my till, I was actually in pain by the end of the shift! I am glad I just work part-time but I needed the over-time so I can buy the nursery in January. Plus, we have new uniforms and have to start wearing them next week and they got me my regular size trousers not maternity ones. I am glad I put starting my new course at Uni for a year though (I'm a mature student) because I am more tiered now that I was in the first trimester (seriously, if I am not at work or on here I am asleep).

Poshie: I know it will not feel like it but your scan will come quickly. I had to wait ages for mine but it came round fast and I thought the same about my 20 week scan and that is in three weeks now (23rd December).

mum2joe: It is good your midwife know your history, it make it much easier. My midwife is different from my first m/c and my second m/c I only saw doctors but she is really good and goes out of her way to put my mind at ease all the time.

 

[beachlover1]

grrrrr dont you hate it when people dont do what they say they are going to do!!!! The nurse yesterday said "ill get the midwife to call you tomorrow to book you in and book a scan"....has she called?....has she boll**cks!!!!! I know its the bitchy nurse not passing on the message, she was sooooo arsey, like she is bored of seeing pregnant women!

So, I text the MW as i have her number from the last 2 times, im hoping she will be in touch tomorrow ;-) I want that scan date!

Hows everyone else today? im tired and grumpy ;-) x
