Its 3.15 and I am awake - again!
My new routine
Think my body's getting prepared, but its so frustrating. I'll feel crappy all day tomorrow, I mean today.

My baby's being a tinker. I've been to maternity day care for monitoring twice this week.

This is becoming the hardest part.
I'm so anxcious and worried about the baby all the time, abd about giving birth.
I'd like to fast forward now.

aww hugs hi

AFM I got my bfp today..

 

[StranjeGirl]

Congrats congrats congrats lilrojo!!!!!! So happy for you! When is your first scan??

I hope you feel better hispirits I remember how uncomfortable I was at that time. What is maternity day care? Did you think something was wrong?? I know I was in the drs all the time at that point....always bleeding. I was so paranoid about early labor You are getting to a pretty safe time though!! I remember at 34.5 weeks my dr said to me "if you have the baby tomorrow, who cares!" He meant it in a good way as - I am at that point where baby will be fine. For so long we were worried about very preterm labor due to all my bleeding. Hope you feel better soon!

 

[Hispirits]

Congrats on your bfp! Lil!

Strange, last week in the space of 2 days I had dull cramping in my back, mega increased cm, braxtons with shooting pains across my bump and I had been number 2 about 4 times! I thought I was going into labour!!
So went to maternity day care, which is like an accessment centre in the maternity unit at my hospital.
I went in the monitor and everything was fine.
I had had a massive spring clean a day or so before and think I may have over done it!
Monday, Monday night and Tuesday morning baby was so still!
A couldn't get him To move. So back up the unit yesterday lunchtime, as soon as they put the monitor on he went berserk!

The worry never ends!

Yay!! Congrats lilrojo!! So excited for you! What will your due date be?

So sorry Hi, the end really does get pretty rough, huh? Glad all is ok. You're in the home stretch.

Sorry, I hardly have any time to post these days. I hope everyone and their LOs are well. I think I had told y'all a while back about me applying for Labor and Deliver nurse position. Well, I found out on Monday I got the job!! I will be starting in 3 weeks!! I'm so excited!!

Hope all is well!

 

[lilrojo]

Thanks ladies..

I have betas today and Friday due to my losses.. and a scan at about 6 weeks..

Lady my edd based on ovulation is Dec 15th

 

[Claire1]

CONGRATULATIONS LIL!!!! Thats fantastic! H&H 9 months to you

Well done Lady, what a lovely job that will be. You must be so chuffed, good luck for when you start!

Sorry to hear you've had a few scares Hi, the worry is not knowing when it will happen and just generally the unknown. You'll be fine, just keep thinking of when you can hold him and see his adorable face.

Well AFM my period sort of showed up, i would say more very slight spotting, didnt need to use anything. But I did read the mirena coil can make your period lighter and lighter the longer you have it so I think thats probably what it is. I did a test and BFN so it must be that.
I didnt take Darcey to the zoo, we went for a walk and fed the ducks and went to the park. Its still SO cold here we didnt want to wate the money if she started to get too chilly.

Hope everyone else is well x

 

[trixie79]

Hi girls, congrats lil I'm so pleased for you... If your over due you could have a Xmas surprise!!!!

Thanks for the info his.... I'll do that when my period comes.... It's day 34 and no sign yet but I got bfn today so she's just around the corner!!!! I'd say I'm not ovulating, my worry is that the last time that happened I got preg with the triplets!

No other news my end.... My brother and family are home from Chester for a holiday so we spent the last few days down south on oh family farm.... Saw 2 cows calves which is enough to put you off sex!!!!! They went to Dublin today and I came on up north home, my brother just txt to say they met Tom cruise!!!!! Gutted!!!! Lol!!!!

 

[trixie79]

day 36 and still no sign....another bfn......i hope the soy didnt bugger up my cycle.... i got preg with conor on it the last time first go???? starting to worry now!!

 

[lilrojo]

aww Trixie.. hope the soy didn't mess your cycle up.. but it could very easily do so.. I know with clomid I o'ed way late the first month and then earlier month too.. hope af shows or a bfp..

AFM I have my first scan on april 23rd im excited!! 18 days..

 

[_dreamer_]

Congrats lilrojo! I had to do a double take cos you wrote it so casually, thought it Said bfn at first! so chuffed for you, an Xmas baby too! And not long til your first scan!

Hispirits, sorry to hear your little monkey is being a cheeky boy and causing you worry! Not too much longer now.

Stranj, sorry to hear the monitor went off again, must scare you big time.

Congrats on the job lady! Exciting! Can't wait to hear all about it. I barely get time to post too, know how you feel.

Claire its been so cold hasn't it! Really hope spring arrives soon!

Trix, hope af arrives soon so you know what's going on!

Not really much news here, still not enjoying working but am enjoying the money lol. We are looking at buying a run down house, but its a bit complicated as there's loads of interest in it and they're now going to do a sealed bid sale after the open day on the 20th (cant view it until then!) Then the highest bid wins. So probably not going to get it but we can't help but get a bit excited. It's a 4 bed with kitchen, dining, sitting room and a huge utility, loads of potential for extending, and a 1/3 acre of land in the middle of the countryside. Does need a hell of a lot of work though. What's meant to be will be, as we weren't really looking to move til the end of the year to save more, so I guess there's benefits both ways

[trixie79]

Still not here.... Arggggghhhh, wats going on!!!

Oh has a dic appt in Monday that he doesn't need so I think I'll go and take Conor... He gets this pin prick rash so I'll use that as an excuse!!

Got another bfn today .... Do you think I just ov really late then??? Cause I got egg white on the 24 th ish... So today is 37 do of I ov then I would be 13 dpo thereabouts.... I havent went this late since I was preg with the triplets.... Before them I could have went 40 odd days....but have been regular 30 days sine having the girls!

Im si confused.... Wonder I'd it common to get bfn but a blood test positive??? Would hardly think so but will Defo get one on Monday if she not arrived!

I hope you get your dream home dreamer!!! Sealed bids can be very tricky good luck though x

 

[_dreamer_]

Thanks trix how confusing! Hope you get an answer either way soon, must be very frustrating not knowing

Hi, will have a guess of the weight when I get a min ;-)

 

[trixie79]

Day 38!!!! This is really starting to peeve me off!!!!!

 

[_dreamer_]

Any news trix?

How is everyone? I've got a stinking cold I wish would bugger off! Erin is good, she's started wearing shoes without a fuss hooray

 

[trixie79]

She came day 40!!!! Mite temp later this month.... The cbfm is abit of a hassle in the mornings with Conor!!! Do you know can you use it later in the day???

 

[lilrojo]

I think your supposed to use fmu

So things are ok here.. I started spotting on sat dr figures its from the progesterone suppositories.. but hasn't stopped yet.. had my bloods done on 10dpo.. and all was good.. now 1 week later and im spotting still.. goes from brown, to pinky, to red.. and its freaking me out

 

[StranjeGirl]

Ugh lilrojo, you must be so stressed I remember my spotting started at 5 weeks and was a total mess. I know my dr told me that it common in early pregnancy (for me it lasted the whole pregnancy) but it is just so hard remaining calm about these things. I was lucky that he used an ultrasound machine at every appt, so anytime I was spotting or bleeding he did an ultrasound and I was reassured. The only problem is that when I first went in at 5+4 they couldn't see anything, just a gestational sack, so I was sure I had a blighted ovum. Well I hope this waiting period goes as quickly as possible for you and that they can soon put your mind at ease

trixie, sorry you are stuck with wonky periods. Have you ever tried vitex? I started it right after coming off bc and I had been on bc most of 20 years. My first couple cycles were a little longer at about 32 days, but then dropped down to 29. It takes about 1-3 months to kick in.

So I am starting to freak out about autism again. I had actually calmed down for a little while lol. Giada is STILL not pointing or clapping. She turned 15 months yesterday. She still has no words that I know of. It's hard to know if she knows she is saying mama and dada as she says these sounds all day long. If I ask her to say mama, she copies me and says it, but I don't know if she realized mama = me when she is saying it. If we are saying it she knows I am mama. Anyway, the main thing that got me worried is she has been grabbing our hand and taking us to the door and putting our hand on the knob because she wants to go outside. I guess this is called hand leading, and it not seen typically developing children (unless it is accompanied with verbal communication...like if she were to also say :lets go outside") SHe also does this with clapping. SHe takes my hands and claps them together rather than clapping her own hands. ANd a couple times she has done this with her toys. DH and I will do something with a toy and she wants us to do it again so she puts our hand on it. Have any of you experienced the same thing? I am getting worried and dh thinks I have lost my mind. We see the ped soon and will ask, but I worry that he is not a specialist. It is so hard because everyone says "trust your gut" but it is hard to know what your gut says when there is all this stuff on the internet . She is my first so I don't have anything to compare to, and our parents think she is perfectly fine. The pediatrician always thought she was fine. So if it wasn't for reading up on these milestones then my gut would say she is absolutely fine. But then I read all this stuff and it starts to change my gut feeling. You know what I mean? Anyway, sorry for the rant but I was just wondering if any of you have any insight.

Hope everyone is doing well!!

Just a quick one I've been in hospital
My epilepsy has got bad I've been having grand mal seizures.

My bumps not grown either so they have scanned me and I have very little fluid around the baby, which they are going to monitor.

I've been given steroid injections to nature babies lungs,
Hoping they the letting me home today on the understanding I come back twice a week for bloods and scans to monitor the fluid if it doesn't increase they will get baby out around 37 weeks.
