PAL Summer 2011 Babies - From 1st tri to MC and back again in one go.

[Pippin]

Well were a bit quiet aren't we but I guess that is a good thing as it means everyone is ok to a degree.

Had a very busy day, hydrotherapy followed but one lesson at school then back for midwife, where all was good and then back home to wait until Sam could be picked up. I'm shattered tonight.

How are you all? Emmea how is your UTI hon did you get to see the GD specialist?

 

[sequeena]

I'm doing ok. Next scan scheduled for April 18th. Life has got in the way a bit, got my cat spayed blah blah. Got a massive craving for mayonnaise yum yum.

Belly feels a bit deflated though

Hi everyone, it is very quiet isn't it, not much happening with us.

CD27 and still no sign of ovulation I'm getting very impatient and really worried that I'm going back to having long cycles again.

Rob's back at work on Thursday for the first time. He had a few weeks off sick and then his manager arranged for him to have the rest of his holidays rather than carry them over into next year. It'll be nice to have the bed to myself for a couple of nights

Hi! Could I join you ladies please? After 5 losses, due to having a balanced translocation (although they thought there might be another problem due to not having any successful pregnancies inbetween) I am 24 weeks pregnant tomorrow! I'm feeling pretty nervous that he might be carrying an inbalance, as the geneticists have said that my baby has a 5% chance of being disabled because of it, but I'm feeling positive. x My due date is 21 July 2011.

I'm sorry to the ladies that didn't make it this far though. xx

 

[sequeena]

Oh sassy that sucks about not ovulating, grr!!

Hiya quirk welcome xxx So sorry for the things you've had to deal with, I hope your baby is ok!! All us women here seem to have our own problems during pregnancy, what a right bunch we are!

 

[heyyady]

Quirk- 5% is very low, think positive, and early congrats on your VDay!

Sequeena- I saw the pictures of your poor kitty! So hard to see them like that- and yet you want to laugh so bad!

Pip- I was just wondering why all of a sudden this thread died down.. guess we're all just caught up in life things right now-

I have a HUGE weekend ahead- the boarding school I went to for high school is having their reunion weekend, and so my sister is coming through (But will be staying with my mom, not there) , one of my closest friends is coming and staying here (Actually, its my friend Charlotte that we're naming one of the girls after!) On Saturday another close friend is moving back from Colorado and I'm dying to see him! And Sunday ANOTHER school friend is coming by for a visit while she's here from Colorado of all places! On top of all this I have 2 appointments on Friday, am desperately trying to orchestrate getting the rest of the house organized and cleaned, etc and the girls' stuff together- All this (Except for the Drs of course) without leaving my recliner! Wish me luck!

 

[sequeena]

Good luck heyyady looks like you need it I don't know HOW you do it. I was out all day yesterday and was absolutely buggered. I could not do what you're doing!!

Oh I had a good laugh trust me, she looks so pathetic with her cone lmao!! but I feel bad for her now, she's more clingy than usual and when we go to bed she sleeps on my pillow with me I have to keep wiping her eyes for her when they run because she can't do it herself, poor beggar

We are also pursuing adoption and have a few been approached a few times asking for permission to share us with a couple of birth moms.

Hope all you ladies are doing wonderful! This summer is creeping up fast and so are all your due dates!!

Hi everyone, i hope you are all doing well.

Happy V Day Pip!!!!!!!
Heva - Congrats on the wedding, can't wait to see the pics!!
Luvmysoilder - Great to hear from you, i hope everything goes well.

As for me ....

I'm 23 weeks today, looking forward to the 4D Scan on April 16th when i will be 25 weeks + 1. I'm liking this warmer weather too, i usually have a nice brown colour and now i'm so white i'm almost transparent!
Baby Girl Griff is getting into kicking patterns now which is lovely. I love to just sit and feel her moving, i fall more in love every day!
I'm finding it hard to get comfy in bed and keep waking up with leg cramps or backache etc and i'm knackered by about 1PM but i just can't sleep

Ta-ta for now and Happy Mothers Day for Sunday to those who are already Mummy's. I can't wait until it's me next year!

Xx

Caroline you should have prompted Big Griff to get you a card from little Griff - who says you can't start early ;]

Hi Eve!!!!!!!

I think he may get me one from Baby Griff anyway, he is lovely like that but i don't want to get my hopes up in case he doesn't!

How you doing?

Xx

 

[Aaisrie]

I'm OKAY... I've been really low all week, felt really rubbish because I feel sick again. After having those good days last week it totally hit me emotionally when I went back to "normal" again. I tried to tell myself that having those couple of days break when I didn't want to die would make it easier to deal with the nausea if it returned - being hopeful that it wouldn't. It hasn't, if anything it's made it worse. I had a taste of what it was like to enjoy this pregnancy and then been slapped back down again.
I phoned the Dr yesterday to find out if I can get Saraya's nursery care extended [her last week is 11-13th April] and the Dr doesn't think so but she's going to check for me.
The past few days particularly I've had serious issues with ptyalism which is just making me feel more sick... I've gone back to walking round the house with my sick bowl. I have to go to Belfast today to meet a friend - I've been friends with Ruth since I was 13 and wasn't able to see her at Christmas when she was home because I was in hospital so I really want to see her as we only get the chance about every 6 months.

All in all I'm just sick of being sick! I would love a good dose of IV fluids because I know it would make me feel a bit perkier but the zofran are still controlling the vomiting to the extent that I don't need them.

The only thing I WANT to eat are rainbow drops. Chris makes me dinner at night so I have been forcing it down me for the sake of Atticus even though it makes me feel sick... but at the end of the day I feel sick even if I DON'T eat!!!!!

Sorry for the rant....
