Ye know my story ladies
Do ye think I should try get them to bump up section a few days to be safe?
Or wait till Monday if they think scan ok tomorrow ?
Kind of leaving to sooner
But not sure if that's knee jerk or sensible

 

[maryanne1987]

If it were me and all is ok with the scan and bloods were ok then I'd wait but it's 100% up to you lilesmom. You have to do what you feel is best xx

 

[lilesMom]

Thanks hon
I'll see how we go tomorrow
I think ill know from gut feeling tomorrow.
Pretty itchy tonight.
But had been good the last two nights
Thanks x

 

[maryanne1987]

Honestly if that's what you want speak to the consultant tomorrow and explain how worried you are. It doesn't matter what any one else thinks as its not their body or baby. You know what's best for you.,

 

[lilesMom]

Its mostly just fear.
I'll talk to them tomorrow.
I'm not sure what's best really
For the sake of a few days I think it might be better to be safe than sorry later.
But I do appreciate the advice.
They might be adamant they wont budge the date anyway
And we might be better off that way
Thanks xxx

Hope your milk supply picks up for u hon xxx
Hope they sort out your stitches soon for u too.hugs xxx

 

[maryanne1987]

Good luck for today lilesmom, hope it goes ok xx

 

[lilesMom]

Thanks hon.
Just waiting for Dr now.
Seen nurse and had bloods done.
They should be back this eve
Cant imagine they will hve any news for me without blood results.
I half want to wait till Monday now again.
What am I like!!
I'm all over the place

How ye doin xxx

 

[maryanne1987]

It's almost over, less than a week now and you will have your little one. The last week is so hard.

Yea I'm ok. DH maternity leave finished yesterday so he is back in work today. Sucks that we only had one day all together but we can't afford for him to be off longer. I've been worried about managing with the two young ones but so far it's ok. No where near as bad as I expected. Aurora will not have that Henry is her brother though. She keeps saying he's a cat, called Gomez

 

[lilesMom]

Thanks hon.
Waiting till Monday unless bloods or bub decide otherwise.


Oh that's hard on u that he is back already.
Hugs

That's hilarious
Baby Gomez the kitty
Skitting

 

[maryanne1987]

Just a few more days. You can do it! It will all be worth it when she's here. Hope your bloods come back ok x

 

[lilesMom]

Thanks hon
Me too.
Want a few more days with just Simon now
But if she arrived herself in the meantime
I wouldn't argue
No chance though
Think she is snug in there

 

[maryanne1987]

You have made it too comfy for her in there lol. Be nice for you to have a few days with him though before the new little lady arrives. I'm looking forward to next Monday now, can't wait to see pictures and hear what name you have picked!

My little man is 2 weeks today!!its going so so fast.

 

[lilesMom]

I know that two weeks felt like a few days!!
Hows he going with feeding now?
Xx

 

[maryanne1987]

My milk has pretty much gone. I'm red raw and covered in sores from where he's been trying to feed and I'm pumping every hour but it's not making a difference. I'm devastated but they warned me it could happen with all the upset. He takes a bottle well but I've been trying so hard to get my supply back. Think I just have to be honest with myself that it's unlikely. Even the health visitor said today that she doesn't think I should carry on putting myself through it. So yea a bit sad but he's being fed which is the main thing. Can't breastfeed if there's no milk. He's 9lb6 now, such a lovely little armful. Can't believe he was born so heavy. The growth scans were right for a change.

 

[lilesMom]

Hugs sweetie.
The main thing is he is thriving
Nothing wrong with bottles
U tried xxx
It be near impossible to pump
And look after your kids
And get well yourself xx
Huge hugs
I know the disappointment
It really upset me when I had to stop with Simon
But once I did it was a relief
I wasn't under the pressure xxx

 

[maryanne1987]

I think it's cause I breastfed aurora and kept my milk supply going so when he was born I had a great milk supply. But the stress has just dried it up. But he's alive and well so I'm trying not to dwell on it but it's hard. Thanks though Hun. I will get over it.

Any results back yet?

 

[lilesMom]

It might still come back hon.
If that's what u wanted.
Just try not to pressure yourself
Easier said than done I know
Xxx
But equally don't torment yourself
Your a great mom bottle or boobie xxx

 

[lilesMom]

No results.
They often ring quite late
Or might not ring at all
Think they don't sit down to check them till after the days clinic
They do a pretty long day there.
In a very busy spot

 

[lilesMom]

Still nothing
Maybe I've escaped
Woohoo

Getting lots of mucus tonight
But had a busy day
So could just be that
No pains so prob just that
Dr warned me today I could go before monday
Wish she hadn't, don't wanna be on watch again
Just gonna enjoy my last few days
Gonna get my haircut and go for brekkie out tomorrow I think

 

[maryanne1987]

Our hospital is the same. When the called me telling me to come in as my levels were high it was pretty late. Hopefully though the silence means all is ok. Keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Oooh hair cut sounds nice. Must get mine done. I feel a mess. Planned to get it done in the last week before I had Henry but spent it in hospital instead. Wouldn't want to leave him now to get it done.
