March 2013 babies - we all have our beautiful babies :)

Hi ladies!

Just popping by for a quick hello. Glad everyone's tests and scans are looking good :happydance: Looking forward to those pics Mrs AJ :baby:

AFM, I finally went in to see my doctor this morning and he heard some rustling in my lungs which is a first sign of bronchitis so I've been put on antibiotics :cry: I'm so sad as I hate taking such things while pregnant but I know it's what is best in the long run. This "cold" started on Saturday and just seems to be getting worse and worse so something had to be done. I just hope that there truly won't be any side effects or it will kill me to know I've hurt my bean somehow. I also saw a new chiropractor today that my doc recommended as my hip is pretty much awful right now and that combined with the restless legs and the congestion and coughing is keeping me up all night. Probably the main reason I'm not getting any better!

It definitely doesn't help to have 9 guests staying with us (DH's whole family is in town until Monday) and me being sick all through Christmas kind of put a damper on everything. I just feel bad ruining their time as everyone feels bad going out and leaving me behind. I wish I could just say no, no, please leave...I want some alone time :winkwink: So in all the politeness I think we're all suffering a bit! Anyway, I just hope this antibiotic helps and I get better soon...and that this new chiropractor proves useful in my getting some more sleep!!!

Hope everyone is having a good week! I'll try to come by more often now that I'm feeling slightly better.
:hug:
 
:hugs: mrs c,I hope you feel better soon. I have all of those things minus the bronchitis!
 
Expect the squash to last a while. I'm 31 weeks today and I'm still a squash!

Hope you feel better soon :flower: before I realised I was pregnant I had a nasty bout of tonsillitis and was on pencillin. Once I realised I was really upset but spoke to a midwife friend, she said its natural to worry but it really is better sometimes to have these things than not and baby should be fine, its a small controlled dosage in the grand scheme of things, its better for you to be well with such an illness x
 
Congrats mrs aj :) glad the scan went well too, can't wait to see the pics!

Mrs chezek hope you feel better soon :(

I know how you feel. I tested positive for the flu last week and have felt like death for the last 13 days. All I had been taking is Tylenol out of fear for the baby, and tylenol does absolutely nothing for cough/stuffy nose. I finally caved in yesterday and took some Robitussin DM for my cough. My OB decided to put me on a z-pack to rule out a secondary infection like bronchitis or pneumonia since Ive been sick for so long. I try not to take anything while pregnant, but she assures me the baby will be fine. Im on day 2, and fingers crossed it works.

I hope you feel better soon! It sucks being 8 months pregnant and sick on top of it all.
 
told by the midwife today, that i need to take it easy or im gonna induce pre-term labor!
fab, how am i suppose to take it easy with a 2 1/2 year old lol?!
tell you something though, i hurt like a mother**** lol xxxx
 
hi ladies! i have such exciting news! my brother and his wife just had their first baby last night, i'm an auntie :) it was so exciting holding that little boomba, so tiny makes me so excited that soon i will be holding my little emma!

she had a very speedy delivery it was only 2 hours and he was 9 pounds 7 ounces!
 
Congratulations heaven that's great news! Hope I have a labour like that!!
 
congrats heavenets :flower:

misspiggy :hugs: hope somehow you find time to relax a bit more but i know what you mean, my little 3yr old wears me out just watching her play let alone doing things for / with her! x
 
ladies.. have any of you had your whooping cough jag then felt like crap?? my arm seriously kills and i feel serioulsy sick... been running to the toilet and either being constipated or the other extreme and this morning for a cracking head ache to go with it!
 
No haven't had it yet, I've got a letter from the docs asking me to book in for it though. Sorry you're feeling so rough from it hun :hugs:
 
well so far iv found no one else with the symptoms im having (apart from the sore arm) so looks like im just getting a darn bug.. i hope its not novovirus or something like that :(
 
Oh I hope not hun, that's so prevalent at the moment and not nice either :hugs:
 
yeah my mum had it just before christmas.. and she was still a little rough christmas day.. so im wondering whether she was still infectious and passed it on :( Thankfully the head ache has gone so I am feeling a little better now :) x
 
I always feel sick so I never know if it is the flu or just my morning sickness :(
 
Thank you ALL for your well wishes! I am feeling much better today so that is good :flower:

My doc put me on Zpack too and I read online that it's "as safe as Tylenol" so I guess we're alright. It does suck to be feeling crap AND pregnant...especially over the holidays!!!!

I hope it's just a small cold although the cold I got was killer and I ended up with bronchitis! My doc said that colds and flus right now are going strong and that tons of people are very sick :nope:


SO, as I've said in my earlier post, I tried a new chiropractor my doc recommended on Thursday and saw him again yesterday and my hip is MUCH better. Still not painfree but much more manageable. I also caved in and drank some tonic water last night for my restless leg syndrome so I *finally* got some sleep last night. :yippee: Since the research on quininine is all over the place, mainly saying the pill form of it is bad but the amount in tonic water is ok, I'm not planning to rely on tonic water every night but I know that a good night's rest was what I really needed and I think it is why I feel much better today. Bronchitis and sleeping 3 hours a night just don't go hand in hand!

Hope you all are staying warm and staying well :hug:
 
Glad you got a better nights sleep mrs chezek!

I ordered my birthing ball tonight, so hoping that once it arrives I can spend some time bouncing around to ease my hips. We rearranged the living room today so I've got plenty of space to sit on it in front of the tv. Going to try and spend as much time as possible on it and see if it has a positive effect :)
