^ that is some of the university. Love it!


Students here are notorious for burning couches and doing stupid things. We were walking over a bridge at the uni and I looked over to see this:

poor lonely arm chair!


And I was just enjoying the view while hubby clambored up a fire escape to get a better view. Turns out the view was crap (too many trees) so he took pics of me instead. lol! So here ya go, me in a beanie... (and yes, with only one croc on. lmao!)

I will get better pics of me when I finish this new beanie!!!

 

[MummyCat]

Oh honey.... they're lovely!!! THANK YOU!!!

That building is gorgeous and I love the artistic shot you've done with the chair!! Are you on blipfoto at all???

PS... lovely beanie and you look so at peace there... with one croc off! x

 

[flyingduster]

Thank you!
nope, I'm not on blipfoto at all, but I'm on far too many other sites to go looking at more! LOL

 

[MummyCat]

yeah, if you're busy then I'd stay away from blipfoto... it's addictive

Photographers of all levels use it, you're allowed to upload one photo a day, for someone who's getting into photography (like me) it makes you think about which shot you'll publish, generally forcing me to improve composition and quality of my shots

I've not put much up lately... due to feeling so rough .. here's a couple I put up

Hi Sarah, so glad to know you are back!!

i totally understand what you mean about thinking negative and you explained it very well about your mother etc, and it is disheartening but like you said, we have to think of the positives.. please dont be worried about your op, not that ive been through it, but imagine your chances of falling pregnant after your polyp removal !!

plus your goal seems very ideal too.. i have no doubts you will be pregnant this year.

thank you so much for all your kind words, it means so much to me that all of you care and makes the struggle bearable.

i have also joined a support group for hematomas on pregnancy groups and discussions and have read of many positive outcomes so fx'd everything should be ok.

will be thinking of you tomorrow during your op... xxx wish you a super fast recovery !!

Mummy, sorry about your backache, i had the kind of pain where i couldnt breathe without it hurting and couldnt move etc, and it was hot water bottles and constant support of pillows that helped me through it, hope you feel better.. lottie looks gorgeous in those pics. x

Flying those pics are amazing !!! even you in the beanie !! you should take up photography if you already haven't !!

love to all. xxx

hi everyone
just popping in to say hi and bye, I have a lot to do before my operation tomorrow. its at 2pm tomorrow, and Im not allowed any water or food after midnight, so thats going to a long wait! I will update you as soon as I can. please pray it all goes well and theres no complications (they listed the possible chance of complications at the pre-op, wish they hadnt!). this time tomorrow I will not have a polyp anymore and one step closer to my bfp!
p.s loving the pics, so creative!!

I hope your op is a success Sarah and you are able to conceive in the next three months as a result.

 

[nypage1981]

Good luck sarah i am sending you good operation vibes!

 

[babyhopes2323]

Thinking of you Sarah xxxx all will go well do not worry !

Congratulations on the 8 weeks mummy! I'm just going by scan dates because two places have confirmed me at 8weeks the other day...there's only four more weeks for us to go until we feel completely safe xx

Nyp and flying.. Wow only 3 weeks for Nyp and flying so jealous!! It about 10 something or 11 already!!

Praying for us all x

 

[flyingduster]

Ohhh Sarah, sending you heaps of wonderful vibes of a perfect op, and easy removal, a fast recovery and a BFP ASAP!!!! You can doooooo it!


mummycat, I love those pics!! I do a little photography as a hobby, but I don't have a DSLR at all, just a wee powershot! So it's just for fun, me and hubby both love to spend an afternoon doing some photography for fun!


baby, I'm sure you WILL be fine! It will be amazing to be here in another year, and to see a new "due October" thread being started up by those for 2012... You'll be fine hun, I know it!!!
And like I said to mummycat, I do a little photography, but it's only ever for fun!



AFM, I got my scan date sorted!!!!!!!!!!! YAAAAAY! The problem was that they had gone by my LMP and booked me in accordingly (which puts me a full week ahead of where I *actually* am!) so I called them up today and got it changed. I had wanted it to be the 4th of April, cos it's a monday and hubby doesn't work on mondays so it would just be easier (and I already blanked out that space in my appointment book so I had the afternoon off!) but they are already full on the 4th! UGH!!! Mornings are not possible for me to wrangle, so the next afternoon was the 7th. I've managed to move all my clients from the 7th over to the space I had on the 4th, so it's all worked out fine. Hubby can get off work in time to come with me too.

So; 16 days until my very first scan!!!! I can't WAIT! I'll be 12w 6d by then! wow! Soooooo looking forward to it!

And otherwise everything is going pretty well! I still have very little appetite, though I can get starvingly hungry I just can only eat a handful or two before I'm full again. lol! But no nausea for ages now. I've had some crampy sorta feelings at times, and just general discomfort at times too, but I figure it's all part of the growing baby thing! lol.


Did I mention I'm excited about my first scan??!!! lol! *bounce*


And omg, I'm on the downhill to 11 weeks! wtf!? Really!!!!???! Only a week and a bit until that 12 week stage! OMG!

 

[Huggles]

Good luck for today Sarah!!! I'm sure the op will go brilliantly!

Yay for getting your first scan date flyingduster!

I'm going to phone and book mine in about half an hour, just waiting for the doctor's rooms to open. I'm aiming for 7 weeks so we might even be scanned in the same week!

 

[Huggles]

Ok, first appointment (and scan) booked - Thursday, 7 April, 08:30. I'll be exactly 7 weeks

OMG, just realised that's the same day as you flyingduster! Bring on 7 April!

 

[MummyCat]

SARAH thinking of you... hoping it all goes well today!!! Don't worry about the possible complications, you'll be just fine and making a baby before you know it!! OMG.. sooooooooo excited for you!!!


Babyhopes.. thanks for the weeks 8 well wishes!!

Flying.. if those are the shots you get with a little powershot... you'd be killer with a DSLR!!! We got our DSLR about a year ago... and I can't imagine my life without it now! not cheap... we saved up two birthday's and some Christmas present money to get it!

Fab news regarding your scan date... that'll be here before you know it!!! and Huggles... how exciting that you got your scan before hubby's birthday!!

I couldn't go to work today, because Lottie was up all night throwing up! so much washing to do today now!! She's just had the most awful running nappy too... made me want to throw up too!!

 

[Huggles]

Shame, sorry to hear lottie is so sick. I hope it's just a 24 hour thing and she gets better soon xx
Can you try give her flat coke and marie biscuits? Or lucozade if you don't want to give her coke.
My mom always gave us flat coke and marie biscuits, and if we could keep that in she'd move on to toast with a thin layer of marmite, cut into fingers.
And if we were still ok with that we'd get grated apple that has been allowed to just start turning brown. All very good for upset tummies.

Hope she gets better soon.

 

[MummyCat]

Thanks hun!! She asked for toast and water.. so she's eating a bit of that (toast and bovril).

hopefully it clears soon!

 

[sarahincanada]

thanks everyone! thought Id pop in as I woke up early and have some time to kill.
Im so excited for everyones scans and for you all to be past 12 weeks! not that everything is plain sailing from then on, but isnt the rate of complications so much lower?
who will be the first to post a photo of their baby bump? cant wait to see those start to form!!
last night I had to insert these 2 tablets vaginally, they are supposed to open up the cervix to make the op easier. I woke up a few times and feel crampy down there and have a little blood when I wipe. it was making me feel queasy as Im such a wuss with things 'down there' and so god knows what I will be like pregnant.
well going for a shower and to get ready, leaving in 2 hours.
will update soon my lovelies!

Thinking of you Sarah!!!

bye bye big fat polyp
