I know she got a banned message - no surprise there! As for why it's still showing as active, i dunno! Will find out.

Tulip, Dillon's adorable! How's it going?

TB - Lili is doing well with it all so far, thanks! She SO cute. Only problem has been the mobile. I don't even have the canopy and hanging animals up yet, just the arm, and she can't help but jump in the crib and attack it! So, no kitten in the nursery while baby's sleeping!

What else have I missed?

Urgh welcome to my pity party! I am feeling very sorry for myself today! 31 weeks down, 9 to go! I am going to beg for early induction because I can't take much more!

I have to wear a tubigrip and a support belt and use crutches to walk .... i'm wearing slippers because my foot is so swollen i can't wear shoes ... i am taking medication for pain, depression, heartburn and constipation .... my back is killing so i'm constantly using a heat pack .... i can't sleep because of the pain too

God I'm a miserable cow! Don't get me wrong, i'm eternally thankful for my precious baby growing inside me ,.... but i HATE being pregnant! It doesn't agree with me at all!!!!!!!!

Roll on 17th Feb when i see the consultant!

Ok, moan over!

Hope everyone else is well! xxx

^^ that's cuuuute!!!

i think you've also missed Vickie being in and out the hospital several times?
she's been home for almost 2 weeks now (i think, right?) and is getting induced february 8



happy 33 weeks Posh & Min!!!
happy 32 weeks Annie!!!
happy 28 weeks Rebecca!!! time to start counting kicks!
happy 27 weeks Brandi!!!
happy 23 weeks Leanne !!!


is that even right, start counting kicks at 28 weeks? it's something i've read on the boards recently but i'm now unsure if it's at 28 weeks, bc i could already start it, little miss/mister already has quite a predictable pattern going for a good number of weeks.

OMG!! I can't believe Pippa is gone. ( I don't go to all the forums, just the ones that are relevant to me so don't know what's happened. It's a real shame.

Nice to see you all chugging along. Feel really sorry for you Debs - pregnancy is meant to be enjoyable not to cripple you. Hope things get sorted out soon or at least you have a chance to put feet up whenever you can xxx

 

[tinybutterfly]

^^ that's cuuuute!!!

OMG, just for the record, that was meant for Annie, not you Deb, being so miserable, there's nothing cute about that, poor you!
is jasmine not making it too hard on you?
i hope you get your early induction, sounds like you're in agony to say the least.

 

[Firedancer41]

Deb -saw your poor footsies photo on FB, not fun at all!!!

AFM, I cannot believe I have 30 days to go!!!! I need to get a move on so much!!!

 

[Tulip]

Poor Deb xxx

Thanks Annie! He's a hungry monkey with the most adorable smile! xx

 

[debgreasby]

Jas is being an angel bless her ... she even helps me up off the sofa

 

[tinybutterfly]

aaaaaaah, bless her!

 

[roonsma]

Hi all!

Nothing much to add really plodding along.. Mat leave starts after next week for me, can't wait now, Deb- sorry your feeling so crappy.

Any recent news on Vickie?

Love to all x

Blissed about hitting 3rd tri yesterday - I still can't believe how quickly it's going (or how big I'm getting).

I spent Tuesday recuperating after a hellish night where I suddenly felt nauseous and then spent the next 4-5 hours violently ill every 20-30 minutes with a tightened up tummy and uncontrollable shakes. I felt like death, but couldn't fathom the car trip to the hospital at 4am (plus waking up a 5 year old to join us) unless absolutely necessary - I was close though.

Things finally slowed down around 5am when I called the nurses line, who suggested I go to emergency. I called my hospital and they suggested I wait, try to replenish my fluids, and call my doctor first thing. My belly was still very hard/tight, but it was constant, unlike a contraction - and I was just so weak. When I finally spoke to the doctor she said I did the right thing, there was a horrendous stomach flu going around (her and her boys had it earlier in the week), and that a stretched out baby-tummy will feel the repercussions more. Rest, fluids, make sure baby is moving as usual. Not fun. I feel much better, but so, so wrung out & weak.

The EMMA clinic appointment was earlier in the day, when I met with a specialist for about an hour. The main marker (my higher than usual HCG levels) puts me in a low risk category for their concerns, but they can't find the results from a blood test I did at 10 weeks which could contain a second marker, which would put me at a much higher risk (for pre-eclampsia or poor baby growth). Because my blood pressure, all the bean tests, and growth & ultrasound results have been excellent, they're inclined to think all is well.

Well THAT was an overly long entry I hope everyone else is feeling well...

Big hugs to Deb and Bumpy for your ordeals!

And hugs to Vickie too for what sounds like a stressful situation. Good luck with the induction - that's coming up right away! And yay for your leave!

Yeah, Pip's account is showing as active, but she says she can't access it anymore.

 

[tinybutterfly]

and when you're trying to sleep that is ANNOYING!!! had to get up twice to fix that.

I feel sorry for my poor midwife having to witness my nervous breakdown!

All is well with baby , just a trace of protein in my wee, but nothing to be concerned about.

She's gonna write in my notes that she supports early induction because of my pain.... result!

 

[~BumpyRide~]

4am, can't sleep... kicked awake from inside, clog-dance on my bladder... can't stop eating apples...
