Eswemba: we're trying again Nov. 2014 that way I'll be half way out of school and won't be due until long after I finish. I do get depressed now that I can't try but following you gals and rooting you gals on feeds my baby fever alittle until I go outside and see pregnant women everywhere then I'm bk at it again.

So I'm new to all of this and I'm finally to the point of feeling comfortable even saying that hubby and I are TTC. We have an 8 yr old and have experienced 1 m/c in Nov 2011 and the #2 in Jan 2013. After #2, I told hubby that I was done. I didn't want the opportunity to be disappointed again. It just took so much out of me. Well, cut to June and it felt like the cloud lifted off of my heart and I once again felt the desire to try again. Hopefully, August is our month. I believe I O'd on Friday and AF is due on 8/23. Now I wait. Please pray for me as I pray for each of us!

OOhhhh i have a vlittle bit more time, well i dont but i have to come vent!
Im so annoyed with a work 'friend' so the other day i said that i dont like baby girls in dresses, it's just my opinion but i think newborns in dresses when theyre too little to do anything except wiggle is just silly, they end up with their dress round their neck and all you can see is nappy or vest.
so this work 'friend' just came over to show me a pic of some nappy pants, theyre like little nickers that go over the nappy to make it look nice, all flouncy and ruffly, i said 'it's not really my thing' and she said 'whell it's not you thatd would be wearing them' like what i chose to dress my daughter in offends her somehow, then said that i prefer a young baby in a nice babygrow (sleepsuit) and she said 'babygrows are for parents that cant be bothered to dress their children' i had to bite my lip and said 'well that's me then'
I really dont understand why this affects her in any way, i love girly pink stuff but really not a big fan of lacy, flouncy, stuff, give me a nice sleepsuit or a cute pair of jeans, or even leggins with a nice top and yeah great but dressses when she's really little no way.
But this woman is really dining my head in, she also takes great pleasure in telling everyone that she's better with her firends baby than she is, her friend is a new mum and is struggling with putting him down to sleep and leaving him to cry, course this woman has had 3 kids and thinks shes an expert, and it's lovely that she's helping but i would be mortified if i thought that someone was telling people what a terrible mum i am, and how she's sooo much better with him.
It's all 'when i had My kids....' 'when i was pregnant..' blah blah, i just wana say yes thank you but i dont care what you did, you had your last kid like 8 years ago get over it! if i want advice i'll ask for it and i certainly wont be asking little miss perfect than you very much.
Sorry for the rant but it was necessary.
Also im still getting pain in my lower abdomen, it's not anything to worry about is it? i figured it was just growing pains but i asked Dr Google (doh) and it said .....
I have a pain in my lower belly
Severe pain on either or both sides or your lower belly needs investigating to be sure it's nothing serious. You could have pulled or stretched a ligament, which is common in pregnancy, or it may be a sign of:
an ectopic pregnancy
miscarriage
premature laboura fibroid breaking down and bleeding into itself
placental abruption, when the placenta separates from the lining of your uterus (womb)
So i called my MW and left a message, im sure it's nothing but i just want reassurance.
Oh god she's back again.....i have to urm be somewhere else.....

Garfie: HAVE A GREAT TIME!!!! We'll hear ya when u get bk!
Earths angel: welcome to this wonderful Thread!! And def sorry about your losses. But with time it does get better. I had 3 m/c's after the first 2 I wanted to give up to but I wanted my baby more and I deserved it and by Gods word I know it was promised to me to be a mother of many. So here I am now with my promise that God has promised me rocking in my arms and I know your miracle is just a prayer away too. I'm def praying for you! Good luck to you.
Pinkcasi: Wowsers.... How your story sound o so familiar. I go to a big church where the women has had 13 kids or more. There's a few with only 2 or 3 but the majority has had 5 and greater. So Once I had my son the advice on what's wrong with my child, why my child is crying, am I doing this with my child, how I suppose to hold my child, who I should and shouldn't let hold my child rolled in heavy and haven't ceased. Gosh did it bother me, I felt like I have to have 4 kids to prove myself worthy of being a mother. I do appreciate the advice but everyone have to understand every child is different and what my child does may be different then your child. But I just kept my mouth shut and "yes ma'am" everyone. And don't feel bad I bought my child lots of outfits when he was a newborn only to realize I waste most of my money bc we stayed in the house most of the time bc he was still so fresh and new. This is your baby just enjoy it and let everything else roll off your back unless you need it bc some advice I did use that was helpful but most of it really came natural as it will with you
Mowat sorry ab your surgery on your anniversary my anniversary is 1 day before yours.

Thanks Never.
Also i just spoke to my MW just to get some reassurance that im being a drama queen and she recons it's SPD, that's not good right, but it's ok, she said sometimes it's comes and goes and sometimes it just gets worse Oh great that's something to look forward to over the next 16 weeks give or take, still at least she didn't say something hideous.
Also she asked if i went to the physio class at the hospital to which i said 'urm no was i supposed to?' apparently there was a leaflet in my baby pack, Doh! apparently Im supposed to go between 16-20 weeks Oopsie, the next class with an available slot isn't until 17th Sept, i'll be 19 weeks lol Oh dear

Kat S: Welcome back to TTC. I believe yesterday was your last day on the BC?
mowat: Wishing those levels down for you!!
Earthsangel: It takes a lot of courage to try and face challenges!! Hopefully this month will be your month!! Welcome aboard I will keep you in my thoughts.
garfie: Have a wonderful vacation
Pink: SPD can vary in severity but it is nothing to worry about in regards to how it affects the baby. It is just you that has to work through the discomfort.
never: It is annoying to hear unsolicited advice!! I say as long as you are loving and caring for that child, how you choose to do things is no one else's business or concern. But you know how people are. They want to try to be helpful when they are not being the least bit helpful
AFM: Blood pressure today was a little high. It was over 140/90 but not quite at 150/100. I had them take my blood pressure again and it was still high. Since I have come home, it has gone down some. It concerned me enough to schedule an induction for next Wednesday. I want to do what is healthy for me and for baby. I will be 41 weeks by next Wednesday. This baby could decide to come on her own which would be wonderful, but if she doesn't, I feel I will be in good hands. With my high risk conditions I do not want to go too far past my due date. If this was a normal, low risk pregnancy I would be fine with waiting until 42 weeks and beyond. The important thing for me is that this little girl comes out safe and I meet her. My husband and I are so excited!! I feel a weight has been lifted off my shoulders, as I have been stressing out over when this baby would come and the thought of induction. I am still a little nervous, but I feel I would be even if I went into labor on my own. So yes, next week by the latest I should be a mommy!! Can't wait!!

Mama - I'm glad you have come to a decision you are at peace with. Your little one will be soon here whatever happens. I look forward to hearing all about your precious rainbow!
afm - AF is making her appearance today and I must say I am relieved. I think my body needed to get this whack-a-do cycle out of its system. I hope to be testing again at the end of September (the joy of long cycles...ha ha)

Starry- Then my fingers are crossed for the end of sept. for you!
Pinkcasi: Totally welcome but ab the SPD. The sciata or whatever that word was kicked my butt.
Mamatex: I thought I had responded to you earlier ab leaving your baby with people. I totally understand how u feel. Having the baby is one thing but bonding with that child and seeing that baby face glow up when they wake up and look around and see you and know everything is ok is priceless. And maybe it's a bit to much but I honestly don't want my child to wake up and in not there. Now he's at the stage where he wakes up in his crib and lift his head up to find me and when he sees me standing right there he gives the biggest smile like his world is ok......yea it's officiall...he's going on our anniversary trip with us
Also: being induced wasn't as bad but I still long to know how it would've felt just to wait for him to come.....but he was turned the wrong way to come out vaginally and his heart rate dropped a few times so overall I'm just happy my baby boy is here...induction, c-section again, I'll take it all over again to get another miracle baby
so ready to hear ab your experience in whichever way you deliver will mean nothing when your princess has entered this world. Congrats

Lefty that's great news, your through the 'dangerzone' and you didn't even know it, that's gotta be a relief hooray!
Tricia, So glad it's all good for you too, you have a lil super baby in there yey!
*Warning moany rant coming*
My hips, and back and pelvicy area all hurt so bad, i just want to cry!
By the time i left work last night i sat in the car and cried for 20 minutes before i could drive home, when got home all i could do was sit on the sofa and literally stay there all night, i managed to get up to answer the door to my curry and that was it, ive come to work again today as i just cant have time off and i just dont know what to do with myself, ive spoken to my manager about what i can do as i dont want to have to take my Mat leave this early but doing 8 hours a day 5 days a week is going to kill me, she's contacted her manager support for advice, she did say (sh'es an ex nurse) that swimming might help and i can go in work time and she'll count it as physio so i wont lose hours which is cool but she also said to get regular excercise, no way! it kills to move and she wants me to go for a walk just for the hell of it!
The girl that i was saying about the other day, that has an opinion about everything and is an expert in everything just asked me why im sat on a cushion and i told her my back hurts as i have SPD and she said 'Oh i had that' I just wanted to say 'what a F-ing surprise'!
Im annoyed, in pain and thorougly pissed off!

Omg! I've just been to the drs, he's given some pain meds and he said see how they go and if need be he's happy to sign me off work, he actually said 'are you working' I said 'yeah' and he said 'urm why?' Lol
I told him that my manager has told me they can make me take my maternity leave early if I'm off sick and he said no they can't, legally they can't and if they try to let him know, omg that is like a huge weight lifted, don't get me wrong I'm not a lazy cow I don't want to be signed off for 4 months till she's due but just knowing I'm safe is so good, there are days I sit at my desk in tears cisvot hurts so bad and my manager who is a mother and an ex nurse has scared me so much that I felt like I had to be there. - bitch!!
I'm going to take pleasure in telling her tomorrow that there's nothing they can do my dr told me, 'sick leave is sick leave and maternity leave is maternity leave, it's safe and can't be touched'.
Now I'm going to see if my swimming suit still fits, oh I feel so much better now! Not physically but mentally a little.

Starry: Glad AF is giving you some relief instead of heart ache for this cycle. Good luck for September. Can't believe we are almost done with AUgust. Can't wait to hear about all these fall BFPs!!
Left wonderin: FX baby can stop being a busy body long enough to get photos next time. The first time I had to go in for a growth ultrasound I decided to drink some juice and little one was moving like crazy! The u/s tech had to take a break for a few minutes so she could hopefully settle down! Hehe
Tricia: That is good news!! Grow baby grow!!
Pink: It's great to have someone in your corner isn't it? Glad you are getting some resolution. Your health and your baby's health should come first. Unfortunately in the United States a lot of employers put the bottom line and their business needs first.I understand needing to ensure profits keep rolling in, but too often I see this at the expense of workers who normally give 110%. When those same workers are not able to due to health reasons,it is a shame that so many people are forced to choose between their employment and thaeir health or their family member's health. Not all employers are like this of course, but it seems that time off, leave, and the like are not afforded as generously as it is overseas. Anyway, getting down from my soap box now lol.
