Leinzlove's Bump Friends (14 Blue, 12 Pink, 8 Angels) 25 BORN!!

[happyface82]

Congratulations babyfeva!!!!!!

I had my consultants appointment yesterday. There was not much to say since the scan went well, which was expected though as its still way early. He'll see me again at the end of January after my growth and doppler scan! and I'll also be having another GTT in the same week! Oh dear!

Congrats babyfeva! He is precious!
All this talk of labour is making me so excited to have Soraya! 3 more months. Sounds so long, but I'm sure (hoping) it will fly by!

 

[Bumpblues82]

hello everyone!!!

so glad all u ladies are doing well!!

so afm... lol i think i told u what the specialist found out but ill tell u again incase lol
so dr quenby told me that my womb is accepting anything and cant tell weather its implanting a good egg or a bad one which explains the mcs that have had genetics faults but doesnt explain emma who was fine so she reckons that when i do implant a good egg i just cant sustain the pregnancy so heres the plan she gave me

take progesterone 200mg from day 21-28 of cycle (or last week depending on length of cycle)
on last day of cycle do a hpt if its + up the dose of progesterone to 400mg if neg stop and try again next month - this is meant to help my womb filter good eegs from bad eggs
then when i do get preg i have to be on heparin injections, baby asprain, progesterone and steriods to see if that will help me carry the baby to term providing the previous plan worked and i implanted a good egg...
BUT... if i havnt got preg within 6 cycles i have to stop and thats all that can be done for me other than trying naturally and hoping i get a good egg..
2nd BUT... we havnt started this whole progesterone thing as yet and we had unprotected sex twice this month and as i dunno when i ov its a problem as im now 5 days late.. but hpts are still negative.. but every time this happens they take ages to show positive either that or... im on too much thyroxine lol i had a dip in my thyroid levels and was poorly for a few weeks so doc upped them and im ok now was only by 25mg so not a huge increase and my periods stayed regular thru all this so that didnt affect them but im wondering if it could have something to do with increased dose as too much can cause u to stop periods but i think thats only in the case of larger doses than 25mg so once again ladies im utterly stumped!! lol

Oh My goodness! Blue is catching up with pink!!


ladies... been MIA for a very long time. Congrats to KRIPPY (my fellow team yellow) and BABYFEVA So excited and happy for you two!

Still need to catch up on reading. Hope everyone is doing well.

I'm still here. Had my Obgyn appointment Monday and I am still losing weight at 28 weeks :sad: Anyways, she is so not worried. The anti-nausea meds might be suppressing my appetite, but bump is measure accurately. She is sending me for an ultrasound just to keep me happy, but she said it's normal for some ladies to lose weight because of MS and also high metabolism. I would give anything to be MS free, but no matter what, I am thankful!!!


Sugar (GD) test tomorrrow :yuck: Hope I pass

 

[Mrskg]

Congrats babyfeva he is gorgeous

Ich I failed routine blood sugar (6.6) so need to do glucose test on tues I was told to fast from 10pm app next morning at 9 and 11 x

Off to look at front page xxx

 

[lch28]

Thx hun. Good thing I fasted. I'm here now and feeling terrible. So hungry .. have a huge head ache and I have been getting constant bh

 

[Madrid98]

Congrats babyfeva!!! He's so cute!!!

 

[Mrskg]

ich I'm dreading it was told to take a snack to have after second blood test I will def be needing it x hope you pass with flying colours x

 

[lch28]

ugh!! i hated that so much. by the 3rd hour i was so hungry. After i finally! left, i was all sweaty and shaky and felt like i was gonna pass out
i really hope i pass!

 

[Leinzlove]

Ich, Mrskg: I hope you both pass also. But, if not I'm telling you its not the end of the world. I have GD and really the hardest part was the 3 hour glucose itself. I barely eat anything different and am able to keep my levels within normal limits. Well, I should also mention baby has flattened my stomach and I eat like a bird several times a day.

NeeSAH: So, happy to see you! I wish you weren't pg sick. I haven't gained anything in 12 weeks. My Dr. doesn't mind, either. Mainly because I put on the weight early in pg. Won't be long and you'll be finding out if your yellow bundle is pink or blue. I can't wait!

Bumpblues: Glad to have you back! I hope you are pg right now... And if not sounds like you will be super soon.

Hi ladies how are u all doin??xxx

Hey Leinzlove cud u update pls?? my next appointment is midwife on the 20th dec then my scan is 15th of feb...xx

 

[happyface82]

Ich - I bet you are glad its over! i'm having another one done in Jan but they are horrible. Though here they only do the 2-hour ones which is slightly better but still..

Ladies I need some advice. I'm having bad pelvic pain. Not sure what it is, didn't have any with K. Could walk for miles with no problem! Now.. if I walked down to the shops it starts hurting so bad I have to stop.. Its in the inside of my thighs, around pubic bone and lower back.. its quite intense.. Luckily I don't have to walk much now.. and when I do my shopping I drive but I know I\ll struggle when I go to Greece for Christmas as we live in the centre of Athens and we walk everywhere!

Last pregnancy I felt so great and had all those problems with the IUGR and diabetes and constant scared. I'm hoping this time I'm having so many little niggles I'll avoid the serious stuff!

 

[Wiggler]

Sounds like SPD hun, get yourself referred to a physiotherapist, there is loads they can do to help x x x

 

[happyface82]

Thanks Wiggler! Will see my GP at the end of Dec once I'm back from my holiday if its still hurting! Didn't know they could help! I thought it was just one of those things!

 

[Wiggler]

You're best off seeing your MW rather than your GP, a lot of them tend to fob it off as "normal pregnancy pain". If you ring or text your MW she can just send a referral off

I've got it really severe, it never went away after my son was born so been suffering for 4 1/2 years now. They finally think they can "fix" me after this baby is born, I can't wait. I am housebound now

Some things that can help in the meantime, try not to push stuff, pushchairs/trolleys etc, hard with a child, I know, but it does make it worse. Also keep your legs closed as much as possible, sit on a carrier bag in the car to make getting in and out easier, sleep with a pillow between your knees. Do pelvis floor exercises religiously, bonding very gently on a gym ball twice a day for 10ish minutes each time can help too.

This website has loads of useful information on it www.pelvicpartnership.org.uk/

 

[happyface82]

Oh wow! I'm sorry you've had it for so long! That sucks!! I really hope they can do something to help you.

Thanks for the advice! Will have a look at the link!

 

[Wiggler]

I hope they can too, they said they can't help while I am pregnant, and I have long term intense physio to look forward to after the birth.

I'm really looking forward to being pain free

 

[happyface82]

Physio can be so demanding mentally I find -I have chronic problems with my knee from an old injury- but if they can get some results then its sooooooo worth it!!!!! Definitely something to look forward to!!

 

[Wiggler]

Yea

Got to have my next appointment in about 4 weeks which will be talking about my delivery options and what will happen after the baby is here. Eek!

 

[lch28]

cheryl your scan is on my due date lol!
