PAL - February 2013 rainbow babies

Hugs ladies

Anniversaries and due dates can be sooo tough.

My due date is coming up for my last loss halloween, also marks a year since we said goodbye to my grandma.
 
:hugs: to all!

I won't stick around too long today, because I don't usually like to BnB on the weekends... I like to spend my time with my guys while they're home... but I had to come in really quick and do my happy dance :happydance::yipee::headspin::dance::wohoo::loopy:\\:D/\\:D/\\:D/\\:D/\\:D/

IT'S V-DAY!!!

Now, I'm not naive enough to think that today is the end-all-be-all, or that if bubs was born today, there wouldn't be problems. In my chosen field, I've learned more than I ever cared to about babies that are born this early.

But this is a milestone, and a huge one... knowing that if something were to happen, he'd have a chance, and that chance gets better EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. is awesome.

:hugs:

Happy V day! :hugs:

Today is Rowans anniversary (my sig is the anniversary of when we found out he had passed, he was brought into the world 5 days later) it is also my nephews anniversary so a sad day in the family. Went to see my sister with a bunch of flowers and a hug, then spent all day in bed relaxing, watching rubbish movies, having a little cry and eating junk food with OH. We set up the changing table and moses basket last night so when we woke up this morning we had an immediate reminder that while he may not be with us he has given us this little man and will always be his guardian angel. Big hugs to everyone going through due dates and anniversaries, it seems a lot of people on this thread have suffered there losses in the last 12 months so are having these for the first time, just wanted to say that they do get easier, you'll never forget and it never goes away but time does heal and eventually you find peace :hugs:

I have a loss date coming up but I've came to thinking I will celebrate/commiserate my losses every yr on 15th oct baby loss awareness day with 5 losses there's 5 due date 5 loss date 5 bfp dates the list goes on I think if I try to keep all these dates in my head I will exhaust myself x they will always been in my heart an I've made them all a memorial page an printed them out just so "I know" I will never forget x :hugs: to everyone with dates coming up x
 
Congratulations AllMacs on your v-day, just under 2 weeks til mine and I can't wait.

Hugs to everyone with anniversaries coming up, sometimes it just doesn't get easier :hugs:

Mrskg I didn't know about baby loss awareness day until this month and I think that is a lovely idea.

We had a very positive second anomaly scan today to have another look at the heart just to make sure all the right bits where in the right place! We had a fantastic look at the baby's face and it didn't look as 'skelton-like' as the last time :lol: we had a great view of the nose, little nostrils and lips. I'm not sure why but it made it seem all the more real :dohh:

I didn't think I'd been very stressed about the scan beforehand but when we were driving back from the hospital I suddenly felt exhausted and felt as if my shoulders had dropped about 3 inches so I was obviously I lot more uptight than I realised. Think it will be an early night for me tonight, I'm shattered!
 
Hugs shocker.

Mrskg I think I will now do the same for my three losses each month bar three have a painful memory now.

Happy v day allmacs it feels like such an achievement doesnt it.

I am 25 weeks today, submitted my maternity leave request form today. That feels soo good. Officially will be starting maternity leave at 36 weeks 7th January but have holidays to take. Will have to put a ticker up I think. Turns out that I now only have 6 weeks to work. Whooo hooo.
 
Lots of hugs and prayers to you who are remembering your losses. :hugs:

Congrats to your v-day all macs and everyone else on your good scans! Woohoo debzie only 6 weeks more weeks of work to go! That must feel great! :happydance:

This morning I suddenly felt as if I was going to faint at work. This is the 2nd time I have felt this way in the last 2 weeks. It made me nervous but I hear that this happens sometimes so I will need to keep my blood sugar up and snack often. Another new symptom is the pressure on my bladder! Wow, when I have to go, I have to GO or else I’m worried I may have an accident. I am also feeling uncomfortable when I’m trying to fall asleep. It feels like LO is laying right on my bladder! Have any of you experienced this? I am also noticing that I really need to move a lot slower and be more careful now. I am really starting to feel like my body is pregnant and that I can’t do things they way I’m used to doing. It’s great though, I get happier and more excited as each day passes! I can’t wait for the baby shower in early December and for my LO to arrive in a few months!!!
 
Yes Rosebud definatly! I had to get a big V shaped pillow to help me sleep at night and build a sort of pillow fort :haha: The bladder squishing drives me mad, sometimes i'll go then ten minutes later im dying to go again and i do feel as though i'll have an accident sometimes even when ive just gone! I also now waddle occasionally and have to do things much slower as i really cant walk faster than a snails pace anymore! ive singed my jumper twice on the cooker as i forget my belly is so big and am cooking away and then smell the singed wool! :dohh:

Some of you might remember I had to go back for a second fetal heart scan and had it today so thought i'd update! everything is perfect! They were able to tell us that our little man doesnt have the genetic heart defect and is in perfect health! We are absoloutly on air :cloud9:
 
Sounds like good news all round!! I'm 24 weeks today so I guess it's my v day! Seeing midwife tomorrow and hope all is well!
 
Happy V Day!

It makes me so happy to see us all getting so far and doing so well :D

Shocker - fantastic news that your little man is ok, must be a massive weight off your shoulders :hugs:

I've just realised that I'm 24 weeks the same week as my birthday, can't think of better birthday present to get from my bump!
