Hiya Ladies!!

How are you all?

MissyMojo - welcome back!! It must be lovely having the internet again - i bet you have been surfing loads!

Due1 - Congrats! Can't wait to hear about the wedding, but i guess you might be on honeymoon now....


We had a check up today and the results of the triple test are back - 1 in 8,000! I like those odds. I was certain it would be much higher risk as i am 34, so am very grateful for that result. Also heard spud's little heart beating away again and that always makes me smile.

Just having a rough time sleeping - i fail to get back to sleep after getting up for a pee. it means i toss and turn trying to get comfy and sleepy again and i disturb poor DH (who is being very sweet and understanding). I am practically nodding off now and we are supposed to be going out later. Maybe i could have a liccle nap.....

Hope you are all well!!

Love,

Michelle XX

[MissyMojo]

i have been online constantly since it got hooked up at half 1

its gr8

i find the same i get up for a pee bout 2 am and lay there til bout 4 w8n to fall bk to sleep - seems nudger thinks aha ur awake im gona kick ya then tell ya ur hungry!

 

[blondee]

Exactly!! Every time i crawl back in to bed he decides it is the time to bust some serious moves!! The kicks (and no doubt punches) were high and low and on both sides! Obviously i lie there and smile and enjoy it which doesn't help me back to sleep.... Wouldn't change it for the world tho!!

I guess they are getting us ready for broken sleep....

[MissyMojo]

yeah - but its frustratin too - hehehe nudger is now kicking up-over and making my belly jiggle- which is an odd feeling, i love the feeling but sum x cant help but think thers a time n a place - 3:30 am is not the best for us!

 

[blondee]

Yes, apparently someone also told me (and it does make sense) that the bay is developing sleep patterns now. So if the LO is really active at night then he is gonna be active at night when he pops out!! Luckily for my sanity, he has generally being kicking a lot this morning too so i hope it is just mummy moving around that wakes him up in the middle of the night, but i doubt i will be that lucky!

All this talk makes me wanna nap right now as he is as quiet as a mouse...... they do say 'Mummy sleeps when baby sleeps' but i guess that it jsut for when you have given birth, eh?? hehehe

 

[MissyMojo]

hahaha - nudger has been active for the last hour or so. . and will be so for another hour or so - then when i get up for a pee nudger wil wake then, then gobk off to sleep, then b up from bout 8am - once a night waking i can deal with

 

[Tulip]

Munch has been fairly quiet last few nights. He's very active at 8am every day without fail, and at 10pm. At night he just gets comfortable again after I change position then drops back off to sleep. Good lad

Jo, so good to have you back
And Michelle, awesome triple test results - congratulations! xx

 

[TripleB]

Hey ladies

Glad you're back online Jo - don't know how I'd get through the day without the internet!

Sounds like you all have very active babies at the moment! Can I ask when you first started to feel things and what it felt like? I am desperate to feel something soon!

I've been getting quite excited looking at sleepsuits and little coats today - I can't wait to start buying! We've started decorating at home too so everything is looking tip-top before it gets covered in baby puke! We've chosen a daffodil colour paint for the nursery and I want to get started!

Anyone heard from Agi? How's little Michael doing?

[MissyMojo]

i was 18/19 weeks before i felt anything - now i get no peace hahha. nudger is kicking me up high atm i am loving having tinterweb

 

[wish2bmama]

Well, 12 weeks today! Kinda excited about it!

BUT.. having lower back pain and some cramping.. clinic wants me to come in tomorrow if it doesn't go away. UGH!!

 

[MissyMojo]

they probably just want to check on u - i imagine twins at 12w giving u some back ache and ur uterus stretching - but better to be safe than sorry

 

[hb1]

W2BM - I have had this too - I think mine's def stretching - but it will always cause a worry and it's good they're keeping an eye on you - you must be near your 12 week scan anyway?

Welcome back to cyberspace Jo - also loving everyone's baby movements - can't wait for that - so exciting!!

afm - another sleepless night - woke up at 1.30am!! couldn't get back to sleep and had to take lieu time this afternoon as was exhausted - came home, ate lunch and passed out on the sofa!

[MissyMojo]

i rekon i'll b having an early night tonite - didnt have my customary afternoon zonk out! seems that but 3pm i need to sleep hahaha

 

[SEA34]

I have no problems falling asleep but wake around 4 every morning and then i'm shattered at work all afternoon.

Nothing strong felt yet but definite flutters for a few weeks so shouldn't be long for you h x

 

[wish2bmama]

Thanks ladies! Def better to be safe than sorry. I have my 13 week scan next tuesday with the high risk ob, can't wait to meet him.

hb1, I can't wait for movements either! It all sounds so exciting! Sorry you didn't get sleep last night . But awesome about lunch and a good ol' sofa nap!

 

[Tulip]

W2BM - I agree, would totally expect backache and stretching with two on board Best of luck.

Louise - Mandie regularly updates her thread in the preemie section https://www.babyandbump.com/premature-babies/370725-25-2-labour-c-section-today.html, Micah is back off the vent and doing good. Such a brave boy

Love to all xxx

Oh god, was it awful??? I presume they must anaethatise (spell?) the area first.

I have bought some cream from mothercare that you are supposed to massage in a few weeks before and it should help as i have been very scared of taring or being cut. Buuuuuuut, recently i have started to think (apologies in advance if this is TMI or a bit crude) but is it perhaps not better to make the exit route a bit bigger and stitch it back up than to really stretch the (sorry) hole?

I am scared of pain but i am hoping that my body will spring back as much as it possibly can. God knows, i am not wearing these hideous granny bras cos i think they look nice! I read good support now is supposed to reduce sag.


Cor, this all makes me sound very vain and i really am not I am just not a gym-bunny type at all so i am aiming for damage limitation!
