End of May 2013 babies CONTINUED..

[Little Ducky]

Thanks guys, nice to be back with some familiar faces

On the subject of the whooping cough jab, how did you all arrange it? I'm a week behind most of you, so just heading into my 27th week today, and so far nobody has mentioned anything about it to me? Do I just ask my midwife to book it or can I just call the GP surgery and book it myself?

 

[OmiOmen]

Your not behind me, I don't turn 27 weeks for another 3 days. It depends on your area as to how you arrange it I think. My MW mentioned it a couple of times in my appointments but said she will not book it until my 28 week appointment. I would bring it up with your MW or GP's office if it is not mentioned at your 28 week appointment.

I am going to ask about the whooping cough jab on Wednesday at my midwife appointment because I haven't heard anything about it myself

 

[pebbie1]

My midwife told me to book it in for when I'm 28 weeks at my 23 week check. So I had to book it myself as the nurse at my GP does it and not the midwife

Hi guys can I join you?!
I found this thread through one on Third Tri forum about bump buddies!

I'm due May 26th, which I think is pretty spot on to my dates.
I'm having a girl which I'm ecstatic about as its what we wanted!
So far I'm having a fairly easy pregnancy, horrific morning sickness which went at 15 weeks.
I have my 28 week appt next week and they booked my whooping cough jab for the same time to get it all over and done with.
So hi! Nice to meet you all! Xoxo

 

[OmiOmen]

:wave: Hi, Sparkle.

 

[pebbie1]

Hi Sparkle and welcome!
I was exactly the same when I was pregnant with my little girl, horrendous morning sickness which went at 15 weeks and then I just cruised through it. It's nice!

Not heard anything from CLH after her 4D scan yesterday. Hope all went ok?

 

[CLH_X3]

Hey sorry! Been so busy!

Had the scan, everything is fine, he was being. Little sod tho and had both hands up by his face so we couldn't get a good shot! Re booked for a couple weeks! Defo a boy tho!

Hope everyone Is ok!

 

[SparkleUK]

Hey!!!
Funny a lot of ppl have said it about girls!!
Has anyone started thinking birth plans yet? X

 

[OmiOmen]

CLH, I'm glad that all is well. Sorry he was not cooperating though.

I won't be writing a birthing plan, I just don't feel it is something you can plan for. My appointment to discuss my final options will be at 36 weeks and if my scan goes well I will attempting a VBAC and it not I'll be having to book a repeat c-section. For a VBAC I have to argue that I don't want them to automatically put and epidural on me unless I ask for one but they won't budge on the constant monitoring and IV cannula.

 

[pebbie1]

Glad he's fine (and still a boy hahahah) CLH! Good that you get another scan.

Sparkle, I wrote this birth plan for my daughter but it didn't even come out of the bag and nothing went as I planned it on my birth plan. I wanted a water birth with only gas & air but ended up in hospital at 38 weeks with pre eclampsia and was induced. The only thing that worked was the only gas & air lol.
This time I'm just going to take it as it comes

Sooo my scan went great!!! The technician said that it looks like my placenta has moved to the right place My appt with the OB is moved to Thursday now so can't wait to have him confirm Baby was wiggling about a lot but we managed to get a few pics

Hi Sparkle!! I remember you from back in September, you got your bfp only a few days after me!! So nice to see you here and great news about the little girl. How has your pregnancy been?

Clh great to hear you had a good scan and it's good they'll let you come back for better pics
My husband thought he saw testicles on the screen but the technician said no it wasn't that. But she knew I was team yellow so you never know

Babyface so glad to hear that Placenta looked like it has moved to the right place. Did you have complete placenta previa? I have my U/S to check placenta when I am 28 weeks which is next Wednesday...your news gives me some hope...

 

[babyface15]

hi Sasha, how have you been?
I had marginal placenta previa, so my placenta was touching the margin of my cervix. they said basically it was very low and the odds of it moving were 50/50. I hope you get good news too hun. there's still a good chance for you, when was your last u/s?

 

[charbaby]

CLH shame baby was a little figit but least you get another scan! My baby had her hands over her face the whole time but I wasn't re offered a scan Look forward to seeing the pics in 2 weeks time

 

[OmiOmen]

I'm glad to hear that it looks like the placenta as moved Babyface. Cute scan photos too.

 

[CLH_X3]

Glad ur scan went well ... Lush little pictures! ...

His arms were literally blocking his whole face the entire time and I even got up an walker around for a couple minutes with no luck!

They gave me a DVD of the scan aswel but I forgot it! So il pick it up next time

Had a midwifes yesterday aswel and I'm measuring 28 weeks, so 1 week ahead ... Got to go back next Monday at 12 for my anti D

I won't be writing a birthing plan, I just don't feel it is something you can plan for.

Totally agree with this, its not something I'll be trying to 'plan' what will be will be, I think!

Thanks for the advice re the WC jab ladies, I don't have a 28 week appointment with my midwife as I'm seeing the consultant at the hospital instead, so I will ask her

 

[pebbie1]

So I just came back from the whooping cough jab. The needle was so small I didn't even feel it go into my arm lol!
Seeing my consultant at 2pm so see what she says.

Babyface great stuff your placenta has moved! Gives me hope that mine will move too still 4 weeks to go till I have the scan. And gorgeous cute pics of baby!

So my daughter has the biggest cold ever and my husband just texted he has manflu! Hope it stays away from me x
