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

[TripleB]

Hey ladies. Dare I say it? *whispers* I'm starting to feel better...! I even changed my mood from sick to fine. It might me that I only have to work 2 days this week then off on holiday but this weekend the nausea has been much milder i.e. I could actually function semi-normally! I hope this means that the placenta has woken up rather than anything is wrong but I'm not going to be negative because I'm so happy to be feeling almost human again! I'm off to Wimbledon today for the first day of the tennis and the sun is shining, yay!

One other thing - can anyone tell me what the beginnings of their bump felt like? The bottom inch of my tummy is now a hard ridge (compared to the flab above it anyway!). When I had that bleed at 8 weeks the doc said he could feel the top of my uterus so wondering if this is what I can feel now? At 10 weeks? Big baby on its way?!

Fluffy - I hope you're ok hun, glad to read you're staying positive - are you still being monitored closely?

Lolly - yay for nuchal, fab that all is well.

Missy - glad you got back ok. I'm off to stalk your journal for pics to find out how I'm going to look at 18 weeks!

to all.

my bump started like that hunni, hard at the bottom just above my bikini line -- and its weird to think its now almost at my belly button!! eek - more noticable when lying down

ooh and i've discovered my doppler works fab with cocoa butter and i get a massage at the same time as chasing my nudgery boo

 

[SEA34]

My bumps not really hard at all although it seems to have doubled in size over night.

TripleB I've felt a lot better over the last few days its such a relief to feel almost normal, I hope it stays this way for you. Did you have tickets for Wimbledon or did you go and queue, I wasn't sure I would manage it this year so .

When did you all start to feel movements I can't wait but I think I've still got a few weeks to go yet?

[TripleB]

I had tickets luckily. My mum gets them every year because she's in a wheelchair. I get to go for free as her pusher but I have to say it was very hard work this year and I'm absolutely shattered now. xxx

 

[MadamRose]

Hi ladies hope everyone is doing well.
Good luck for your scan on the 28th hope all goes well

got my 25 week midwife appointment tomorrow, gosh saying it like that 25 weeks am i here already. get my form for my HIP grant that £190 will def come in useful for baby stuff

And its only 1week exactly until i reach double figures

 

[Agiboma]

hi girls
have not been on this thread in a while. how is everyone doing. gl to all having scans soon

 

[MissyMojo]

hi ladies

im really not doing so gr8 right now

been feeling really under the weather the last few days, i can sleep for england, cant seem to drink enough water to shift these damn headaches, feel grogggy when i am awake, and my bump is aching , im still not feeling nudger move i dont think , im jst feeling fat and tired and useless,
i've been bunged up for days not being able to "go" then last night missed most the 1st 1/2 of the england game sat on the loo with bad belly pains and the runs -

thought 2nd tri was supposed to be full of being blooming and feeling movements and having some energy? instead i want to cry and sleep



so i'm off to drs at 11:45 local time - could only get in with a nurse today - but we'll see what she says xx

 

[Tulip]

Jo I'm feeling the same this last couple of days with tiredness and headaches. I was also fretting last night that my thighs were rubbing together Hope the nurse can reassure you x

Louise, glad you're feeling better hon! I've got siggies turned off
while I'm abroad to save on data charges, that's fantastic news!

Fluffy, I worry about you cervix-checking, babes. Am sure all is fine as if you weren't fiddling you'd know nothing about it xxx

Yay to Lolly on your nuchal!

I have one week to go til the halfway point so am mega-proud of my little
man. On the downside, tomorrow is Ruby-Roo's due date. I am so proud of her too, my precious little girl

love to all

[MadamRose]

Aww sorry your not feeling too well Missy, i didnt really start to feel much better until aboit 19 weeks, and then its got worse again. I hope they are able to help you.


I had my 25 midwife appointment yesterday which went fairly well. Babys heatbeat was really good and really strong. I had a student midwife do everything just with my midwife there. Which i don't mind at all its how they learn, i would rather have them having hands on learning TBH so me and OH even said we dont mind any student being there for any part of any appointments or when we have the baby.
However i meantioned about the stitch i keep getting in my bump and the back ache i keep getting, and midwife beleives its that bad ive been refered to physio. She said its because im so small, it makes me look small when im actually the right size but actually puts more pressure on my back. Bit worried about all that as i have no idea whats going to happen
And i got my HIP grant form which im glad about.
And the baby in one of my tickers has got bigger
And only 1week 6days until 3rd tri

Hi girls

Well im totally f*cked in the head right now.

Due to loss of symptoms was fearing the worse. Decided to cancel early scans and see what happens cus if its gonna go its gonna go.

Well doppler arrived yesterday couldnt get anything yesterday, today tried, got 60 seconds of beats above 160bpm would you say thats bubs hb?

Nik I know about the cervix thing. I saw midwife yesterday and got blood and leukocytes in my urine so I think im doing myself no good. She not worried yet and said STOP !!

Ohhhhhhhhhh why does this have to be so fecking painful, I dont know what to do anymore!!!!!

 

[MadamRose]

Yes if its 106 BPM i would be very worried if it was your heartbeat. Your lucky to get it this early on a doppler. On my doppler my babys heartbeat sounds like a train or gallpoing horse. Stay strong

 

[fluffyblue]

I know and thats why it surprised me but it was definately not mine, mines about 60/70bpm.

 

[MadamRose]

Yes well it cant be anyone elses, i have heard of people getting them this early but its rare. baby must be lying in a good position. remember dont worry if you dont get it every time atm

 

[TripleB]

Fluffy, that's fab you heard the heartbeat. I know its hard but try not to stress yourself out too much . I mentioned to DH about dopplers and he absolutely forbid me from getting one (knows it will make me a stress-head if I can't find the heartbeat).

I am a bit narked about not having my 12-week scan date through yet. Called the hospital this morning and they said I won't get it until next week for the following week. Trouble is I'm on holiday Friday for a week so basically I'll get back and scan could be any day. I hope my DH can get time off work at such short notice. Stupid hospital.

Nausea is still there but its so much better than last week so keeping my mood as "fine" for the moment!

Hope you're enjoying your holiday Nic.

I know Triple I didnt tell Noel !!

I am feeling little bit more positive cus never got to this stage !

 

[Tulip]

Fluffster, you mental, that defo sounds like a happy little bean! Quite right not telling Noel yet, I did sneaky doppling too! As you say, mw isn't worried. I think you've got a nicely settled little one in there - reckon you should go and see him waving on Weds. How many weeks are you now? (Sorry, I've got tickers turned off so can't see) xx

 

[fluffyblue]

Im 9 weeks and 2 days so ill be 10 weeks on Tuesday !

 

[Tulip]

Oh FAB! That also explains diminishing symptoms - placenta starting to take over = happier mummy!

 

[SEA34]

Hi all, I'm 13 weeks today does that make me offically 2nd tri?

fluffyblue great news that you heard the heartbeat

 

[hb1]

Tulip - halfway there!! must feel good!! & lots of for Ruby's due date - hope you're ok.
