PAL Winter Babies 2010/11 - ** Waiting impatiently for our remaining babies! **

[TripleB]

Thanks hb - I only noticed the swelling because when I took my socks off last night there was an indent where the band at the top of the socks were - I guess that points to water retention? I wouldn't be surprised to be honest as I walked about 2 miles in London yesterday (should have got a cab) and not at pregnant-woman speed (was trying to keep up with a colleague). They do seem better today. Not so great on the fingers but I guess there comes a point in most pregnancies when your rings don't fit as well as they did, extra blood-flow etc.

We had our follow-up scan which confirmed the MMC on our wedding anniversary (next week) but it was pretty obvious from the first scan (a year ago today) as I was sure of my dates. I am using this as I don't want to make our wedding anniversary a sad day.

Welcome smiler, it's great to see you!

I noticed this morning I have black rings around my eyes already. A sign of things to come xx

 

[blondee]

I have the black rings too! I guess i cannot get away with the sleepless nights at all... last night was bad, i jsut felt rubbish. I think i might start getting up and going to the spare room. The only issue is really that we do not put the Air Con on in rooms that we are not using, so it will be a sweat-fest if i move rooms I jsut feel so bad about how many times a night i am waking DH up.

Come on Spud!! I wanna meet you!!

Welcome Smiler I know what you mean about anniversary's - it certainly is tough. I just know that this little guy is meant to be and my little angel was not. The pain we have all endured will make us even more appreciative of these little winter lovelies!!

Due#1 - so glad to hear it is going well. How are you feeling? Healing well and not too tired yet?

Jo - love the cake tin analogy!

Have a good day, ladies XX

 

[MissyMojo]

all round

hope you get some sleep nic and blondee

cake tin analogy was te only way i could think to explain a sweep lol

we had the biggest windstorm blow thru here this afternoo- had to close all the windows and everything is now covered in a fine layer of gritty dust/sand!!

made a big pot of soup been slow cooking it for a few hours, will have some for tea tonight, then freeze the rest for after nudger

oooh and a whole load of goodies came from asda

hows everyone else doing??

 

[TripleB]

Blondee - your status "cautiously pregnant" makes me chuckle. I think you're about to have your pregnancy proved in a rather major way!

Love the cake-tin analogy too Jo - love the fact you are excited about an ASDA delivery even more!

[wish2bmama]

Hi girls
Welcome smiler Seems like its the time for sad anniversaries, the 18th was the anniversary of my tube rupturing with the ectopic It made me sad to think back how frightening and bleak that time was but made me extra grateful for this little man growing inside me
Sorry about the lack of sleep ladies I tend to wake often but get back to sleep pretty quickly luckily. On average I'm up to the loo 3 times a night!
AFM I am absolutely shattered from work!! Surely I shouldn't feel so tired after one day?!

 

[KimmyB]

PS. Due glad all is well! Well done with the breastfeeding! Meant to ask you...What size clothes is Chloe in at the moment? Was just wondering coz she was such a good weight.

 

[fluffyblue]

Hiya girls not been on for a while have been lurking and keeping up but nothing new to report.

Im in 3rd Trimester tomorrow

Do you know why I have to see an obstetric anethatist ? I have an appointment sent to me for 23rd November, midwife crap as usual dont know why lol !! I think its cus of my section.

As for me, im fine, sleeping well, weight gain...... 3lbs to date wohooooo !! Got another scan on 28th of November but think baby is fine getting some weird movements lately a feeling like trying to force something very big through a small hole lol.

Looks like all is well with everyone xxxx

Blondee - your status "cautiously pregnant" makes me chuckle. I think you're about to have your pregnancy proved in a rather major way!

I am so scared of tempting fate and changing it!!

Jo - i would attempt a cartwheel if i got a delivery from Asda!!! Enjoy, you lucky lady!! I took solace yesterday in a standard bar of galaxy choc that cost me over a quid, but was worth every penny Ok, i bought 2 and have the other one saved for this afternoon

Fluffy - third tri rocks!! Congrats! Ok, these last few weeks are achey, but it just feels like an amazing achievment to reach third tri.

 

[hb1]

yey for third tri Fluffs!!

[wish2bmama]

Yay for thrid tri Fluffy!!! xx

 

[MissyMojo]

im feeling pretty meh today - and its making me wonder if bubs is ok - i cant put my finger on it but something feels - off - ... could just be that im feelin poorly .. but i dont know ???

 

[Tulip]

Jo, follow your instincts. Call the MW

Welcome to 3rd tri Fluffy! xxx

 

[MissyMojo]

it might just be me feelin s rn down - urgh - i feel so confused all the damn time

 

[MissyMojo]

ive rang mw - got voicemail - waiting for a call back . . .

 

[MadamRose]

oh for 9 or even 6 hours sleep - that would be fab!!!!

Getting that warm glow Due - Hoping that Oliver is taking notes

hx

Hope Oliver takes note, Chloe was only up once last night I dont know how she stays asleep so long, i keep waking up to check she is ok becase she wakes up so little. But its nice to be sleeping well.
Got a postnatal check tomorrow to see how things are going, still not heard from the health visitor yet. I cant beleive DH goes back to work in 6days and that Chloe is 9days old
Its going too quick now she is here, when it went so slow in the pregnancy

 

[MadamRose]

on the 3rd tri fluffy

 

[MissyMojo]

aww bless her sleeping soo well

went to mw - all ok on the nudger front - mw thinks cos im poorly im just not recognising the movements as much as i would normally,
