Anyone TTC#2 and wanting to chat

[Sambles]

Good evening everyone,

Sarah - hope you enjoy yourself in Norfolk. We don't think Sam had the pox in the end but he did have some sort of virus so it's just as well I didn't meet you guys

Kerri - I think it's really bad that it varies by area because here you get a smear test when you're 22. I'm 27 and have had 2 already and I think it's awful that in other areas you have to wait til 25

Stef - that's unbelieveable I don' understand the NHS sometimes

Caz - bet that must have been frustrating about your scan. At least you know you will definitely get one next month

Well I got my scan app through today. It's for 19th July then my follow up with the consultant is on the 26th August. It's an internal scan so I'd better prepare myself because last time I had one it was really uncomfortable xx

 

[x-TyMa-x]

Vicky - Ive not had an internal scan before but i can imagine them being pretty uncomfortable but i hope it all goes well for you .....I love the way Doctors say "Relax" when theyre going to poke something in that department lol ....How your meant to relax is beyond me lol

 

[Sambles]

Lol Kerri when I had one last time she lubed the probe up right in front of me and I was like 'there's no way that's gonna fit up there without some sort of foreplay first'

 

[x-TyMa-x]

............ hahaha i have actually just LOL'd hahahahaha!!

I remember once going to the hosp for an operation on my erm Piles lol ...the Dr said i am going to insert a "small" implement .... well holy cow if that was small i would HATE to see his large!!! .... its a good job he was standing behind me or he would of got a smack in the teeth

And the bloody thing never worked!! lol x

 

[Sambles]

Ha ha Kerri I wonder why these doctors say such stupid things! I'm hoping that since I've had Sam things might not be quite so erm tight down there so it might not be quite so painful. That makes me sound like I've got a bucket crutch which I can assure you I haven't

 

[x-TyMa-x]

Lol hahaha!! yes the things children do to our bodies haha, My poor va jay jay has to go through this again ....cringe

 

[Sambles]

Just remember to do your pelvic floor exercises xx

 

[x-TyMa-x]

Oh christ dont haha.....

I struggle to do these lol, i always forget to breathe!! haha

 

[Sambles]

I'm doing them whilst I'm sitting here typing

 

[Stef]

Hello ladies.

Vicky my first scan with this LO was an internal. they put a condom on the probe and lubed it. I was like... eugh this is the most uncomfortable experience ever.

I hope there will be good news for your follow up appointment. Wonder why it takes a month after though to follow up with you?

I have my 32wk scan on Monday, sadly, im not looking forward to it because it means that ill be seeing the dr under my consultant again and if its the same one as last time im not sure i can have another appointment where she makes me leave in tears.

Vicky, re the nursery, they havent been 'bad' but in some areas they could have been a little better. We went to look around another nursery today it was lovely but to put the baby in too which i would need to due to college it would mean our nursery bills would be about £360 a month and we cant afford that with me on mat leave so i think we will be staying at the existing one. I hate money! Argh!

Olivia had her immunisations today she was sooo brave she didnt cry flinch whinge or anything. Bless her im soooo proud of her, i even bought her a big bag of sweeties (bad mum I know) but I havent allowed her to eat them all though, she will be eating them for the next few weeks. lol.

We also went to Hamsterley Forest today, we took Olivias bike, had a gentle walk through the forest played in the park and then had a bbq in the picnic area. it was lovely

xx

 

[Sambles]

It sounds like you've had a lovely day Stef, just what you needed I reckon

So how old will the baby be when you have to put her in nursery and how many days a week? Are you going to uni full time or are you working part time and uni part time? Sorry for all the questions but it's something I'm possibly looking into doing next year.

I really hope you don't see that horrible doctor again. Was that the one who told you that you couldn't have another c-section? xx

 

[bbblues]

Ladies your hysterical LOL

Well I got my positive ovulation result today woo hoo
so tomorrow i go in for the IUI so excited, i feel like i need to celebrate and open a bottle of white!!! and im not even pregnant yet. but im thinking positive thoughts.

Hubby starts vacation tomorrow too

Hope your all well, enjoy your weekend and the 4th

 

[x-TyMa-x]

bbblues - yay for the pos ovu test xx

Stef - your day sounds lovely ..apart from jabs part dreading tylers xx

back soon going to eat xx

 

[Stef]

Vicky the baby will be 6 weeks when she starts, im leaving Olivia in 2 full days per week as she gets the early years funding so i only pay for roughly 4 hours per day during term time so 8 hours a week for her, as for the baby she will be going in Tuesday afternoons and Wednesday mornings.

Im still at college at the minute, the course im doing because i was doing it on a night it was part time over 2 years but there is a day course than runs too which is full time for 1 year but as MIL said she wouldnt look after Liv & the baby together I had no choice other than to either speak to my tutor and see if i could join onto the day course but only the lessons I needed or drop out. Luckily my tutor is really nice so made provisions to accommodate me then i apply for uni in september. I sooo hope I get in or else I think I might cry. At the uni open day i went to they said for childrens nursing you spend 8 weeks in uni, then 8 weeks on placement doing a variety of shifts including nights etc. Sounds alot of work but i am sooo determined.

bbblues yay for pos opk!! Hope this is your month.

xx

 

[Sambles]

bbblues - how exciting for you. I'm going to think very positive thoughts for you. I hope it goes well and make sure you update us when you can

Stef - it sounds like this is something you really want to do which is great. It's brilliant that you are determined to do it and even though it will probably be a lot of hard work it will be well worth at the end. I bet it must be a very rewarding job as well

xx

 

[Stef]

What were you wanting to look at studying at uni?

I think it will be rewarding but at the same time pretty difficult. Not every sick child gets better unfortunately but at least you would be in the knowledge you did all you could to make it a happy life before the time came.

[Sambles]

I've always wanted to be a midwife since I was about 10 but when I was doing my A Levels I kind of lost sight of it all and decided to take a year out and get a job before going to uni. The problem was that I liked earning money and never went to uni. I kind of regret it now and think about it quite often. I know midwifery is very tough but I just think I would love it and it would be my dream job. It's just a big risk for me to take though so I keep having second thoughts xx

 

[x-TyMa-x]

I would LOVE to be a midwife vicky altho i dont do needles or blood so its out the question for me x

 

[Stef]

Vicky you should deffo do it or you may regret it all of your life. If I hadnt made the jump when I did to start college again i think i'd be stuck in my dead end job forever.

after leaving school at 16 i did go to college and did 3 years doing travel and tourism and ive no idea why, ive never worked in that industry and have no desire to either. I just didnt know what I wanted to do I guess, alcohol and boys were an influence in my life and building a career base was at the bottom of the agenda. I regret that now but we all make mistakes. Its what you do later to correct them that counts

xx

 

[Sambles]

I think you're right Stef about regretting it if I don't do it. I have looked into some local uni's etc but I think I need to read up in depth about it. I want to wait until after I've had another baby though.

I didn't go to college but I did stay on for sixth form and did English, Physics and Chemistry A Level. I've got no idea why because I never wanted to be a scientist

Kerri - that might be a problem if you don't like blood or needles
