[buttons1]

will be thinking of you tomo opps so sorry you have to go through that

 

[MrsMoo72]

Aw oops, so sorry its turned out this way, ill be thinking of you. The ladies I have looked after who have had erpc have all come back from recovery looking like a huge weight has been lifted off their shoulders. It is a very quick procedure (bout 15-20mins actually in theatre) so you should be back nice & quick for tea & toast once you've come round! I know it's hard not to worry but im sure everything will be fine. Lots of love xxx

Thanks buttons. The procedure itself will actually be a relief, I was so confident on Thursday that I would miscarry naturally, but it's all stopped and that's "worse" than if I had miscarried to be honest. It's just the general anaesthetic I'm not looking forward to really xxx
Thanks Mrsmoo, my mum has also looked after people who have had ERPCs and she has had one herself. She has made me feel loads better cos she has reassured me that she wouldn't have had it after working on that ward if she thought it was unsafe in any way. I did eventually find the courage to tell her about the baby. It's a shame I couldn't tell her til after I'd already lost it, but at least she can be there for me now xxx

 

[nicola ttc]

Thanks Buttons, i'm sure she'll be ok, i just wish she could be pregnant too.

Thinking of you Oops

 

[oopsbaby]

Thank you ladies. Happy to report everything went smoothly. Being put under wasn't half as scary as I expected and I was in good hands the whole time. Got a bit of a headache now (from the anaesthetic I think) and obviously a bit sore and achy, but only really had paracetamol, and got some codeine and a hot water bottle at the ready. Boys dad is my "responsible adult" and he is taking excellent care of me bless him! I may be away for a few days now, emotionally recovering once all of this has settled and sunk in, but you'll never be far from my thoughts ladies, and I WILL be back xxx

 

[nicola ttc]

Sending big hugs Oops. glad it went smoothly for you and you have the boys dad looking after you. Take all the time you need to recover emotionally and we'll just be happy to see you back when you feel ready.xx

 

[MrsMoo72]

Aw oops, i'm glad everything went ok, enjoy you're rest, lots of hugs xxxx

So I had my first embarrassing moment at the doctor's today. I called yesterday because I was having some discomfort in my pelvic area. The nurse I spoke with told me to try a stool softener as it was most likely some constipation. I still woke up uncomfortable this morning so they told me to come see the doctor. Girls, apparently growing a new person is an uncomfortable process. The doctor told me the soreness was my uterus growing and making room for baby and my muscles stretching. It was sort of a welcome to pregnancy wake up call for me.

 

[nicola ttc]

Well, better to go there and be told that than to worry. Good to know bubs is growing big though! Do you have a bump yet little nibble?
We should make a thread of Summer Sunbeams Bump Pics as we're all at a similar stage. What does everyone else think?

Alex (my 2 yr old) made me laugh today. He picked up Elliots mp3 player, put on the headphones, then rubbed the mp3 bit on his belly
Do you think he see's me use the doppler too much

5 more sleeps til scan day

How are the rest of you lovely summer sunbeam ladies today?

 

[tmr1234]

Hope every 1 else is doing ok .

Congratulations wantingagirl

No bump for me yet. I started this thing a bit overweight so I think it is still hiding behind my belly. I have noticed I can no longer suck in belly though. I'm dying to start looking pregnant but I'm still in pre-pregnancy clothes and it doesn't seem like I'll be out of them soon.

 

[BrittasticTX]

Littlenibble that is too cute!! I stressed a lot about the cramping too but I've been having it since the very begining so luckily I got reassurance early on that it was just a growing uterus.

Nicola I can just imagine a little boy doing that, how adorable! And I think your summer sunbeams bump pics is a great idea!

I have a fairly long, deep scar on the right side of my belly/pelvic area from a surgery I had when I was little. Around that area my fat is much thinner and I can very clearly feel the bump of my uterus on that side! I can't believe how close I am to the second trimester already, I'm starting to feel a little anxiety about being ready for baby before s/he gets here!

 

[lolalei3]

I still can't believe how far we all are already! time has seemed to speed up after i got to 8wks! does anyone feel like it's only just becoming 'real' now? im pretty excited as have started to get a little bump! starting to even look pg now! I think the bump idea is great we should all post our pics up now then compare them when we are further along!

 

[littlenibble]

I'm sure once we all get our genders and can start working on nurseries time is really going to get moving. That is something else we all need to do. I love seeing what everyone's nursery will look like so I can steal ideas and find good websites to use.

 

[BrittasticTX]

We are actually saving right now for a house. We want to have one built but chances are we won't be able to move out of the apartment until a month or two after the baby gets here, so I'll be decorating a nursery with a baby in arms! Adding house-buying to baby-growing makes me feel double stressed!
