We had a scare last night. I had a big red bleed, I was sure it was over, so I went in today, and I have a new Hematoma, it's bigger, but closer to the cervix than the baby. We are good for now, but not out of the woods yet. I am on rest probably until it clears completely, or end of first trimester or both. Hard to do, but I am trying my best.
 
Oh I'm so sorry Honey. I'm glad the baby is ok. You may remember my clot with this pregnancy was near my cervix. I was told it's the best place to be as the blood can slip right out without touching the baby. I'm glad you are on rest though. It's so scary to have these clots and to see blood.
 
Nato, congrats on the weight loss! I"m sure you'll be back in Jennifer Aniston shape in no time! You've got me thinking about microderm abrasion now. What did it do exactly?

Hearty, those blankets are beautiful! You're so talented, you're little girl is going to be very stylish in her beautiful blankies.

Jaymes, sorry about the scare and the new clot. I know how scary the first trimester is. Just keeping thinking positive. You've got a healthy heartbeat and are more than halfway through the first trimester. I've got everything crossed for you.

AFM, we're back from out trip. Our last few days were very relaxing. We headed out to the gulf coast and laid on the beach for two days. The weather was spectacular and we all had a blast. I nearly had a heartache when I saw my weight gain for this week!! Yikes. Time to cut back on the ice cream!!

p.s. Happy Mother's Day to all the UK Mommies! I hope you have wonderful day, you all deserve it!!
 
Hi round! I've been trying to take it easy, but that can be difficult... It is very scary, especially when your Dr says "You're not out of the woods yet, but the position of the hemorrhage is pretty good as far as they go."
Talk about making a girl nervous! My poor DH gets upset if I sneeze or cough, and if I yell, I get chastised like a 2 year old! Thank goodness I haven't got a cold!
 
Jaymes- I hope all is going well:hugs: I'm glad your DH is keeping your in line... rest up!

Hearty- have fun at your scan today!

Round- Welcome back! Lounging on the beach sounds amazing! Do we get to see any vacation bump pics?

Hi Jenny! I hope all is well with you:D

Happy Mother's Day to all the UK ladies!!! I can't wait for the US Mother's Day:D

It has been pretty quite in here lately....
 
Yeah I'm not bad hun finally started a pregnancy journal wooo xx
 
Hoping...no pics of my bump yet. I'll do one someday. I keep trying to take pics, but they look bad so I just delete them. I might try one tonight as I finally look pregnant now instead of chubby.

I forgot to add, I had my first stranger pregnancy acknowledgement last week! Someone offered me a seat on the train between terminals at the airport. At least I'm hoping they assumed I was pregnant!
 
Hi girls,

Sorry, I've been kind of in a funk since getting back from Scotland. The first day back I was still on a high from my trip but then I got really sad and I've been feeling really blaaah ever since. :shrug: And I got strep throat but reacted badly to the antibiotics and only took them for two days...so I probably still have strep.

I would LOVE some bump pics to cheer me up. ;) Round, I'm sure you look great in them. You could just take the photo of you from the neck down like I usually. Jenny and Hearty, I'd love to see your bumps as well!! Happy 2nd tri Jenny and happy 20 weeks, Heaty. Happy 25 weeks, Round!!! :hugs:

Happy nearly 9 weeks, Jaymes! Just remember every day is another day closer to 'safety.' Sorry you've got a hematoma and I hope it goes away very, very soon.

Hearty has a scan today? Yay, have fun seeing baby again. :)

Nato, do you feel like a new woman? Congrats on the weight loss and I don't know what microdermabrasion is but it sounds cool. Im getting a spa facial this evening.

How are you,hoping?

Jenny- I will have to check out your pregnancy journal:thumbup: Your bump is so CUTE!!! When I was at your stage I looked like I just gained weight in my middle section

Round- congrats on the stranger acknowledgement :thumbup: definitely do a bump shot and share with us!

Allie- its good to have you back! Sorry you are in a funk and have strep on top of that:hugs: What has you so down? Do we get to see pictures of your trip?

I'm doing good but also kind of in a funk too... Penny and I had a near death experience. The details are in my journal. I am probably making too much out of it but it still scared the crap out of me. Also their is trouble in New Mexico with my family (details in my journal as well) so I've been really worried about my parents. On a good note we bought a new car:D Its a Jetta TDI & I love it! Our business is also going very well but we are exhausted. Penny is growing like a weed and getting more fun and beautiful everyday. Her newest trick is sitting up unassisted and holding her bottle... well kind of holding it. she will do it for a minute and then pull it out and try to put it in her eye, uper her nose etc:dohh:
 
Well it was a perfect scan in that the baby is still a girl and is absolutely perfect. She's measuring spot on at 20+3 and everything is great.

The not so perfect part was my cervix. It is measuring short at 2.6 cm. They start to worry with anything under 2.5, so I'm right on the cusp. They want to measure it again in 2 weeks. I'm meeting with my doctor on Friday to discuss. One treatment is progesterone. Another is bedrest to keep the weight off my cervix. They can also do a stitch in the cervix, but it is pretty controversial as it can can cause infection or preterm labor. The concern with a short cervix is preterm birth. That obviously terrifies me. I'm going to insist on going back on progesterone and if my cervix shortens anymore, I'm putting myself on bedrest. That means no more going to they gym. Maybe not even yoga. And no sex. I'm pretty sad about this and very scared. I know I'm not in the danger zone yet, but I'm scared that it might happen.

Nevertheless, I decided to announce on FB. I needed to keep today positive. We didn't get great pics as she was very very active. I'll post some tomorrow when I have a little more energy.
 
Wow Jenny that's some cute baby bump, I'm thinking boy for you, when do you find out?

Amanda, I loved seeing your fb announcement, made me smile from ear to ear. Sorry about the cervix worry, the whole reason I was kept in progesterone was for that worry and it worked well for me, you certainly cannot od on it do if you have some already there's no harm at all in using it.

Allie, Welcone back, glad alistair was such a good lil boy while you were away, sorry you've been poorly though.

Hope everyone else is ok, it's awfully quiet around here!

AFM : I'm still battling daily with SPD, I've living on prescription painkillers now which I hate doing but realistically I have no choice, either that or not be able to look after Poppy. My hubby found us a new house and we're moving out of here tomorrow, into the new house in 2 weeks, so a busy month ahead for us! We have our 4d scan on Sunday, looking forward to seeing what milo looks like.x
