I know its boring Rose but you need to think of baby. X

Just saw Drs. Being kept in till minimum Saturday (if bleeding stops). If bleeding gets worse and is heavy then immediate c section. If continues as is (bright red and regular) will stay in weekend too and be induced Monday. If bleeding stops will go go home Saturday and be induced following Monday at 37 weeks xxx

[dt1234565]

Thank you both xxxx. And good luck Rose xxxx

 

[moggi]

Thanks, its just like history repeating itself. Don't want to be stuck in hospital for three weeks again bleeding has stopped again by the looks of it so i'll look like a numpty when i go in later. Still got bloody pad they can look at if they want. Lovely isn't it? XxX

Hope you're both ok, u really are having a tough time aren't you? Debbie it's great that they finally have a plan in place for you and you might get to meet your baby soon - how exciting!! Obviously I know you'd prefer for her to stay in there til 37 weeks but if they have to bring her sooner then I'm sure she'll be fine!

Rose I hope they sort something for you, it must be awful not knowing what's going on and being in and out of hospital all the time. Even if you have to stay in at least it's progress. Keep us updated on how you're both doing xx

Can't sleep to save my life tonight yet i'm absolutely shattered! Got a gurgly tummy too, can't stopgoing to the loo and the bleeding keeps stopping and starting. I've heard a rumour that my consultant is doing her ward round tomorrow, hopefully get some sense out of her. Enjoy your last day at work girls, i don't know how you've managed to keep going till now, welldone XxX

 

[minidancer]

Hi ladies.

How are you Rose and Debbie? Did you speak to consultant today Rose? Debbie, any improvement in the bleeding? Hope you are both ok

Nicola and Leanne, how exciting it being your last days, time to chill out now until babies arrive

 

[gypsy1981]

Thanks for the full term congrats everyone so so glad I'm on maternity leave now, don't think I could have physically kept going any longer. Even my feet seem to be struggling now and I can only stand up for a few mins before they start getting uncomfortable!

Rose and Debbie, how are you both getting on? Hope babies are doing well and not giving you too much grief!

Leanne - hope your last day went smoothly and you're looking forward to some rest and relaxation.

I ended up in the MAU last night as baby seemed to be having a very quiet day and when I mentioned it to my midwife at my appointment she said it wasn't normal and I needed to get checked out. Turns out she'd flipped over so her back is now on my right instead of my left and she had her feet tucked under her bum so I couldn't feel her legs moving. When they felt her to determine her position they must have moved her slightly and she started kicking off when they strapped the monitor to her. It was such a relief, I was crying my eyes out before we went convinced something was wrong - damn hormones! I suppose she's just preparing me for a lifetime of worry as a parent

 

[minidancer]

Aw Nicola, hope you're ok you must have got such a fright. Wee monkey that he is worrying her mum like that! Glad everything is ok hun xxx

 

[gypsy1981]

She's a little sod! I'll forgive her though although I'm not sure Steven will forgive her as we had tickets to see the Avengers which he's been waiting to see for about 2 years and we has to miss it! It's ended up costing another £25 to re-book for tonight. Still it was worth it for the reassurance x

I think I must have the most cautious midwife in the world. It's nice in a way cos I know any concerns I have will be taken seriously but on the other hand she's really starting to stress me out! When baby measured 1cm ahead she tested me for diabetes, when I had an itchy tummy she tested me for OC, when my blood pressure increased slightly she had me convinced I was developing pre-eclampsia, and now baby has a slightly quiet day and she's got me panicking that something's wrong with her. My pregnancy has been pretty much textbook perfect up to now but my maternity record is inches thick with all the various blood tests I've had done

 

[moggi]

Nicola hope you're ok after last night, its so stressfulsometimes isn't it?! Still bleeding, consultant said they weren't sure whats causing it but as the baby seems happy enough they aren't going to intervene at the moment but they don't want me leaving the hospital either. I got really stressed as this will have been going on slowly for 7 days tomorrow. I'm bleeding more than i did with my last one too. Sooo stressed, just keep being told as long as the babys happy they are happy. No plans, just wait and see. I think i could be here for a very long time xxx

 

[minidancer]

Ha ha Nicola he can remind her of that when she is older!! Your midwife does sound very cautious but I suppose it's better to be safe than sorry. It must be a very hard job to do with the responsibility of an unborn baby and a mum.

Rose so sorry you haven't got any answers yet! Hope you do soon hun xxx

 

[moggi]

Thanks Suze, i'm not feeling the best right now XxX

 

[gypsy1981]

At least you know she's safe Rose and you're in the best possible place for her! Hope you get some answers soon and they can figure out what's going on x

Just got back from the cinema and my ankles are swollen like mad its the first time it's happened to me so far, I look like I have cankles - not impressed! Think I must have been sitting for too long.

 

[moggi]

Cankles don't you just love them, the kids were taking the pee out of mine last week lol. I have some promising news, one of the registrars has just been to see me and they are pretty sure the bleeding is cervical. If it stops/slows down i can go possibly go home they didn't say when but its a step in the right direction. Didn't know a cervix could bleed so much! Hope everyone's ok? XxX

 

[minidancer]

Ha ha Nicola cankles are such a lovely side effect of pregnancy!!

Aw Rose that is fab news!! Hopefully you can go home soon xxx

 

[moggi]

Fingers crossed yes It hasn't stopped completely but it has slowed. Please please please, i want to go home XxX
