***May Blossoms Due Dates Join Here**47 Babies Born!***

[Wiggler]

Thinking of you twinmummy ((hugs))

New - That is what I'm doing with Dylan, he copies and ends up with his finger up his nose, silly sausage! I agree though, "shut up" is soo much better than him saying "F*** off"

Hi Ladies!!

I cant believe i havent popped in here earlier!! My lil bundle of joy is due 25th May (though my dating scan is next week so all could change!)

I had pretty bad symptoms week 7ish but then i was fine- however i have had an awful cold and cough for 2 weeks...and this morning- nausea came to visit me again.....

I cant wait untill i see the pea on the scan- i keep wondering if there is a baby in there at all ( my weight has fluctuated quitea bit since my BFP.....so i try not to get to excited just in case im dissapointed..... But im trying to keep positive- then i can shout it from the roof tops once i know!!!

Hope everyone else is well xxxxx

Hi Queen, congratulations hun

Wiggler... trust me some of the things they come out with at the innocent chatty stage is so funny.... shut up is mild lol Wait till he gets to 6 or 7 and he starts speaking truth... 'out of the mouth of babes' is soooo true lol although truely embarassing for us mums sometimes lol

I am probably going to sound crazy now but omg... I think I can feel my stomach stretching!!! Im sat here and its like a burning stretching feeling and not very comfortable either. It feels like my belly button is being pulled apart... oouucchhiieee lolol And my tummy has gone really hard. Gosh I thought I was expanding the other day, but this is really quite uncomfortable and very noticable!

 

[Wiggler]

Welcome Queen, congrats x

Haha, I remember when I was 5 I copied my mum and said the C and F words, my mum put a bar of soap on my mouth and I bit off a chunk and swallowed it!!! it didnt teach me though, cos about a year later I said another word and got a mouth full of washing up liquid, I didn't swear again after that until I was a teenager.

Aww hun, your lil bubs is demanding more room hehe, maybe put some nice soothing cream on your belly? I have major bump envy at the moment though, cos even with my flabby mummy tummy from Dylan there is still no bump!!! maybe if I sprinkle some Miracle Grow on my belly that will work? x

Hope everything is ok twinmummy I had bleeding and everything is ok with baby.

Wiggler- Connor had picked saying "shit", which could be worse but still, so we ignored him like we didn't hear what he was saying and he dropped it the next day.

Congrats Queen.

Lucky cant your reduce your shifts about, surely the HR dept can do something as your pregnant. I totally understand extreme tiredness.. no way I could do your shifts feeling hat way

Hehe Ive been very lucky with Joshua I dont recall any swear words, if I even say 'Jesus' or 'Oh my God' .. (as you do occassionally lol) he gives me a row for using his words... 'foul language' lololol oops I darent use a swear word in front of him lol

 

[mummy3]

Twinmummy, good luck with your scan, I too have had bright red bleeds this pregnancy and all has been well

Welcome queen

Wiggler, best thing to do when they say embarrassing words is to completely ignore them, mine tend to stop quite quickly that way. We had about a fortnight of "bugger bugger bugger" at one point

New, yay for growing belly

Lucky, thats great that you have found someone to take one of your shifts, I still don't know how you manage it

I also need to be put down for team pink, Pics of very clear 3 lines to follow when hubby gets back from target. Now need to think of a name for my third daughter...

 

[new_to_ttc]

wow mummy congratulations on a little girly Im secretly hoping to be team pink, but the more I veer that way the more I think it'll be a boy arghhh still 5 weeks to wait lol

 

[KimE]

Hi guys not been on again in a while and sooooo many pages to catch up on!!

Hope everyone's ok? twinmummy - got my fx for you hun, I had bleeding earlier on (about 5/6 weeks) so I know how you're feeling (a bit - obv being further on its more scary for you) hope everything's ok and bean is bouncing away happily

Hi Queen your due date is near mine

hopefulmama - wish I could eat healthily makes me feel more sick

luckyme - hope you manage to sort your shifts out hun, working 6 days i a row is way too much no wonder you're tired

mummy3 - any news on your scan yet? Pink or blue???

Wiggler - I had SPD last pregnancy due to a car accident and was already in physio for my wrist (3 ops) so she worked with me on my left hip (squished during accident so played up whilst pregnant) and it really helped. Its already started this time so have asked to be referred to physio already as worried I won't be able to walk when I get further along and I have no choice but to run around after my very active 15 month old (and carry her often!!) Hope you manage to get some help (and everyone else with SPD and round ligament pain)

My mind has gone blank now and I'm sure I have forgotten people - sorry!! Ooooo Lisa - jealous about the maternity clothes, I need some already but can't find any I like down town (not much choice) a trip to Calgary soon I think yipeeeeee

I am having a lovely 3 hours off this afternoon (DH has taken Poppy swimming ) just had dinner cooked at a friend's house - full roast with cheesecake for afters and going to do some baking and chilling out this afternoon in a child free house - BLISS!! We don't live near family so don't get time off very often and usually it has to be one of us giving the other "time off" so we don't get to spend time as a couple. Saying that though - I have been spoilt this weekend cos my friend came and babysat last night and we went out for our birthdays (mine and DH's last week) We went to a lovely tapas bar and had gorgeous food and DH had wine and I had a lovely non-alcoholic cocktail. 3 courses, not rushed, in an adult only environment ....... best night in ages!!! Nobody throwing food at me, screaming or trying to steal my food .... grrrrrrr do not steal food off a preggo lady!!

TTFN xxx

 

[KimE]

Lovely names by the way everyone and I hope you feel better soon Wild xx

 

[hopefulmama]

Twinmummy- I hope you feel better and everything turns out alright.

Lucky- That sucks, as you said you plan on not working so maybe you should cut back your hours till you can't handle it anymore?

 

[KimE]

I also need to be put down for team pink, Pics of very clear 3 lines to follow when hubby gets back from target. Now need to think of a name for my third daughter...

We must have been typing at the same time congrats hun. How sure were they?? xx

 

[twinmummy06]

im back! baby is fine, heart beating away and wiggling around
i have to go back at 3pm to find out if they found where im bleeding via the scan, because they couldnt tell me there... so another wait. but im seriously so relieved! still slightly bleeding but the bizarre thing is it only seems to happen when im laying down asleep at night argh never had anything like this happen except for the m/c so its all new to me. i'll hopefully have an answer at 3pm
edit: 1 hour later and its back to bleeding like a period... this is frustrating

 

[lisaf]

aw twinmummy, even with the scan, red blood is scary!
I got some pink discharge this morning... just like I did the morning of my 12 week scan It went away immediately though so thats a lot easier to shrug off and let go of... Can't imagine what I'd be thinking/feeling with what you're going through.

 

[Sevenladybugs]

Twinmummy I'm so sorry you are bleeding!

I go in for my first ultrasound tomorrow. I'm so nervous and excited! Wish me luck!

 

[Wiggler]

mummy - Congrats on team pink! I have to wait 6 more weeks to find out

twinmummy - Glad the scan and well, and hope they find out whats causing the bleeding ((hugs))

Seven - Good luck for your scan tomorrow!


I woke up in a brilliant mood this morning, and went into the lounge and it looks even worse than it did last night!!! so I tidied some (not all) of the toys away and it looks much better, would have done more but as it is I had to scooch round on my bum to stop me aching from bending over.

The weather is lovely today: big black clouds, heavy rain, windy. Makes me so glad I have a tumble dryer as I am going to do some washing today.

Dylan has progressed from "shut up" to "shut up bear" this morning which is what my mum says to her dog, but we have had great fun making shhhh noises

xxxxxxxxxx

 

[twinmummy06]

argh! dont know what to think anymore. bleeding has now slowed down to pink/brown which is good, im hoping it will continue to slow. doctors said it looks like my cervix is closed which is a good thing, still the possibility it is very slightly open so i've been order to rest up and do basically nothing, which is going to prove to be pretty difficult with these two little monsters. i have a repeat blood test to test my hcg tomorrow, my levels yesterday where sufficient for 13 weeks, even though i forgot to ask for numbers. dont hcg levels start dropping around now? so im not exactly sure what the bloods are for but hey they are the doctors right? im booked in for another scan in a weeks time, and i thought 2 hours was a long time

 

[new_to_ttc]

Twin mummy glad the scan was ok, hope they find the source of the bleeding hun! I dont think the hCG levels go down, I think they just slow down and stop doubling every day (might be wrong lol). Try and rest, is there anyone that can help with the twins?

I had a meeting today, went to get my trousers out the wardrobe (which have always been too big, but I wear with a chunky belt) and I couldnt fasten them arghhhhhhhh lol Ive just sat through the meeting with my trousers open and a long top on rofl oops!I definitely feel like I have popped out over night lol

Hope everyone is feeling better today Wiggler if the pain is so bad hun get on to your midwife before your next appt, get yourself in the system for physio!

 

[Wiggler]

Yea I'm going to dig out my notes and give her a ring later

I weighed myself this morning and I am still shrinking, Total weight loss is now 21lbs since I got pregnant. The weight loss is slowing down now, which is good. I think all the weight I put on after I had the Implanon in 6 weeks after Dylan was born didn't help my hips get better. Maybe it won't get too much worse now that I am slimmer

 

[new_to_ttc]

My weightloss has slowed down now, but I havent put a single lb on phew lol I lost last week, maintained this week that'll do for now lol Ive had a bit of a sweet tooth this week so I was surprised I didnt put on, but back to fruit snacks now, I had my indulgence lol
