Good news! Cervix improved from 2.6 to 2.9 and there is no sign of funneling The scan that measured 2.6 last week was an abdominal scan which is less accurate. I may have never had a length that short in fact. I'm still going to do bedrest for the next week until my next scan just to see if it improves. 2.9 is still fairly short but not horrible. I feel much better. Might even order some furniture today!

Thanks for the info Vicky. She's so perfect now. That's very encouraging. Going to work on keeping this girl in here for 40 weeks!

Hearty- that is awesome news I hope you can start enjoying your pregnancy a little more now that you don't have to worry about your cervix

Lucy- I'm glad Steve is feeling better and was able to take a day off to help you around the house

Vicky- Well done for Hero having a good night's sleep It must have made a world of difference!

 

[Round2]

Ya for a nice longish cervix!! I know it's not perfect, but it's so, so much better!!

Now go buy some furniture.....and post some pics!!

 

[LucyJ]

Thats good news Hearty and think staying on bedrest is a good plan till your next scan hope you've got a good book and dvds to watch.

I second that round post pics of furniture

Vicky glad you got a good night sunday.

It was great having steve off today as I managed to get some sleep which is good as I have very unhappy boy just given him calpol and feeding him now hopefully he'll then go down for the night.

Oh Hearty, that's great news!! Photos of any furniture ordered, please!!! I finally have Alistair's nursery looking somewhat cute (in my opinion). I should take some photos....how's the bedrest going, other than the awkward typing?

Lucy, what a gem you have in a hubby! So glad Steve let you have the day to rest. I hope Benjamin went down to sleep nicely, poor little fella....it's heartbreaking seeing them upset!

Jenny and Sassy, good luck at your scans this weekend. So exciting.

How are you feeling, Round?

Vicky, sounds like a good night's sleep indeed.....

I think you might be right, Hoping, I should look up 4 month sleep regression! He seems really hungry the past few days as well, so I wonder if it's a growth spurt? I'm sooooooooo tired though as I had gotten used to sleeping more than 2 1/2 hours at a time. Yawn!!

Alistair has his 4 month well baby check and some more vaccinations tomorrow. I always get so nervous before his shots!!

 

[jenny25]

Thanks guys im up awake and feeling so sick xxx

Allie, it was about that same time where Kash stopped sleeping for long periods at a time, and it lasted months before he started again. It's hard to fall back into the routine of no sleep when you were all of a sudden used to it again. It will happen again though If he is cluster feeding, then I bet he is going through a growth spurt. Have you tried any solids yet (like baby cereal)? That could help him sleep longer at night as well.

Hearty, that is great news. I hope you can rest easier now, and try to enjoy the rest for now. You are doing a great job of growing that little girl

 

[Round2]

Sassy, sorry about the SPD. Mine has actually been better lately. I find sitting on my fat arse all day at work helps. When weekends come and I do errands, I suffer. I'm sure Poppy keeps you on your toes all day. Glad to hear about the good scan.

Sparkly, I'm so sorry that you got another infection. I had one have after my 3rd loss and it was horrible. I hope you feel better soon.

Vicky, wow I had no idea Hero was born that early. Glad to hear you've gotten some sleep.

Allie, good luck at the vacinations today. I can't believe he's 4 months already. I'm sure it's more painful for us moms to watch, then for our babies to get the shots.

Lucy, sorry Ben is not feeling well today....but I'm glad you finally got some sleep. How are the AF cramps? Did you see your doctor? Maybe I missed that....

Since we're talking about nurseries....here's my plan for our nursery. I've had a hard time finding something that I like as I'm not really into characters or cars or animals for the nursery. I like abstract- geometric stuff. Anyways, haven't bought anything yet. But the crib looks the same as the one in the picture. I'm going try and find bedding and paint that looks similar to the picture.

Hmmm.....tried to put pic in a spoiler....but it didn't work. Sorry....must go investigate how.

 

[vickyd]

I suggest you all post pics of your nurseries and ill copy the one i like best when i finally get around to do mine!!!!!

Hearty great news once again!

Jen congratz on the new place, it must feel great to finally be on your own as a family away from MIL. I just shuddered at the thought of living with mine...

Another good night last night, 9.30 to 8.15 woohoo!!! I could get used to this lol!

 

[LucyJ]

Round I havent been back to the dr's yet cramps have eased the last few days. Benjamin slept for 3 hours after giving him some calpol then was up and down I really though he waa going to cut his first tooth but nothing all that pain and still no teeth poor baby. He is on his 2nd nap which is good and he seems a little happier today. Im exhausted and after braking our kitchen tap have now broken my washing line thinking I should brake a plate or something as these things tend to come in 3's.

Vicky thats some good sleep hope Hero keeps it up for you. We've not got Benjamins nursery done yet hoping to get it done this week and him moved in at the weekend.

Amanda I forgot to say in your jornal I love the blanket you made its beautiful I love owls.

Allie hope the sleep regression doesnt last to long for you. Its going by so quickly. Hows your mum doing?

 

[jenny25]

Round- i love that nursery... the carpet is awesome!

Lucy- I hope Ben starts feeling better soon. Glad to hear the cramps have eased up!

Allie- I hate seeing them get their shots... Tim is taking Penny today Poor baby.

Jenny- I hope the sickness eases soon!

Vicky- WOOHOO for some good sleep

Here are some picturs of Penny's nursery! I am very proud of it I did all of the painting and crafts myself. Tim worked really hard putting up crown molding and putting furniture together

Wow hoping, Penny's nursery is AMAZING, looks like catalogue pictures.

Poppy doesn't have a nursery atm as we've moved 3 times since she was born

 

[Megg33k]

OMG... Loving the nursery pics, girls! Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! I can't believe how quickly time is passing on your preggo tickers too! WOW! I feel like I'm never here (probably because I'm sort of not). I do think of you girls often though, and I keep up with everyone I have on Facebook. Feel free to add me if you haven't already (https://www.facebook.com/sweetperversion).

Anyway, all is well here. Boy drama is... uhm... well, they didn't work out. So, it's better and worse at the same time. Weirder yet, the boy in FL is insisting on moving up here anyway, even if they aren't going to be together. I don't quite think his plan is very well thought out, but it's his life. They're both a little depressed, but they'll bounce back (I hope). My Kickstarter is going really well, actually, I'm officially 73.5% funded with 4 days left... exciting! Editing is moving right along... slowly but surely. Luckily I still have 2 months. I signed a contract with my artist, and she's supposed to be getting me more character art in the coming weeks. I've had an outpouring of support from friends and family, and it's been so nice to see it. I've never felt more accepted or happy with my life. Don't mean to take up too much time or space, but I wanted to update quickly on where I've been.

I hope you're all well. Feel free to drop by my FB page, journal, or send me a PM if you ever need me.
