[Smiler82]

Oh likesmom good luck at the hospital thinking of you! Hopefully you can update us soon but sure all will be fine phish food is always worth the heartburn haha xx

How do theywork out weight of baby? I remember someone telling me they don't really do it as can be off by quite a lot. So maybe he won't be too big after all, let's hope not for your sake

Hi withlovmom nice to hear from you

[mommylov]

[lilesMom]

hi guys xxx

just back from hosp, i do have cholestasis so they r gonna induce bub if i dont go by next monday , i have to got to hosp on sunday nt.
they checked bub loads today and reckon all is fine
just to be safe they will induce, im happier that way, id hate to take any chance with him.
they did detailed scan, she couldnt measure his head cos she said he was super low, good sign
then doc tried to do a sweep, my belly is like a brick and ive squeeziness in it ever since so may go myself before mon, but if not i have a dead line anyway
excited now il get to see him so soon either way
and he wont get to grow to ten pound before he comes out hee hee
smiler she did the estimate yest and she said it has a 15% margin of error , so he could be half pound lighter or heavier than her 8.5 estimate
she couldnt check today cos his head was too low down, different lady ,s he didnt know they did it yest anyway
i didnt get the phish food, i was too lazy to leave the house for it

amy fx for next beta, it will be great xxxx

hi and hugs to all xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hey everyone, just thought I'd drop in and say hi and how are you all? I have kept fairly up to date with you all as I receive daily emails to my iPhone but don't have a computer so rarely type anything as phones are a pain!

Congratulations Mommylov that's the best news-praying you get a sticky one this time but sounding good so far!!!

Keep positive Babybemine and Withlovemom but I do know it's so hard!! I was almost 2 yrs before my sticky one!!!

Discoria so glad you've made a decision to ntnp-if that's right for you then go for it and enjoy life-I have a friend doing that right now too and she's more relaxed!

Smiler I remember you all those months back!!!! I am so so plsd for you and have been keeping fairly up on what's happening-how may weeks are you now? I'd it about 22ish?? Wishing you so much luck!!!

Lilesmom almost there. What ever is best for bub is best for you!!! I am 38 weeks Fri and I know someone who's the same and her baby is breech so she's booked to be induced for c sec next Wed and she knows what's going to happen and when he'd coming. My baby is head down and all seems normal so barley no mOnitoring or anything just a waiting game and that terrifys me too-how something could go wrong or labour could just start and I don't know what to expect! All very scary. Also we started building work months ago and it's only just finishing off so I could do with my baby staying in another week or so to due date!! But it is very exciting!!!!

Anyway just thought I'd say hi while I'd got time and before big b day as I'm sure after then I won't have time to even read what's happening with you all (or so I'm told!???).

Bug hugs x x x x

 

[lilesMom]

Lilesmom! You mean Mon 27th??? Oh my gosh you must be so excited, I am REALLY excited!!! Can't believe how much you're doing, you should try to remember to sit down with a cuppa every now and again whilst you can!!!

Hey Hopeful, lovely to hear from you Wow not long for you either! I'm 27 weeks, will be 28 on Monday. All going well so far, touch wood

Mommylov how are you doing? Did you have another test yet?

AFM am really pleased because we booked a night in a posh hotel for my birthday in June We used one of those discount websites and got about 50% off a 5 star hotel!!!! It has an amazing spa too so I'm going to ask for friends/family to chip in towards the pregnancy massage they do there. Can't wait

Hi ladies!!

hopeful, best of luck to you and thanks for the update!!! Cant wait to hear your birth story!

Laura, still soooooo excited about your lo being here by mon!!!!

Smiler, How are you feeling? Your trip sounds like it will be a dream. Even better when you get a great deal!!! I hope you are able to get that massage and have a great time!!!

Hi to everyone and hope that you all are doing well

AFM~ I was so happy to see my results and hear my dr tell me that they are good! I still dont have major symptoms or anything. Getting a little more tired and a little insomnia and some breast tenderness but its all just slight. Dull cramps come and go which is reassuring. SOMETIMES, Im like "Wait, was that cramp in my ueterus or somewhere else?" and then I freak myself out so Im just trying not to pauy attention. heheh Been texting with my dr because I called to make an appt for tues and they told me she was booked. I text her and told her and she told me she was going to take a look. She wanted me to meet with her after the US so Ill see if thats still going to happen tues. One more beta scheduled for mon so as always keeping my fx for that!

 

[babybemine]

Well AF day 3. Had ultrasound and estradiol and HCG levels done. Was ready to start my injectables and nurse called and said my HCG was slightly elevated. Has that ever happened to anyone? I have to go back tomorrow for another blood level to be drawn. The nurse didn't say she saw anything on my ultrasound. Fingers crossed super tight that I am actually pregnant and I don't need the injectables. People have had periods show and still been pregnant.

 

[lilesMom]

amy that is so cool u get a scan soon so nice to see, makes it feel more real xxxxxxxxxx

hi smiler i see ur name unless ur like i did today and forgot to log off

babybemine fx for everything to work our great for u xxxx

hi and hugs to all xxxxxxxxxxx

 

[withlovemom]

Hey Lilesmom.. Its Monday the 27th?? OMG..thats like 3 days away....
Wowwww.. I am sooooo excited for you...
take good rest for these couple of days... I will keep u in my prayers....

Hopeful...Good to hear from you after sooo long..
You are also very close..
all the best hon..

Smiler...how r u doin hon??? hope all is well with u..

Babybemine & Mommylove, hope the coming cycle is your lucky one...sending loads of babydust ur way..

As for me, we had our 2nd scan a couple of days back..
The doctor said that the baby measured fine & everything seemed great..
The baby was in a position where it was facing the camera..& I guess was taking its nap.. So initially we could just see the profile..
But then with small little pokes here n there, the doctor woke the baby up..
..so we could see the hands & legs moving..it was sooo cute... we also saw the heart beating..it was an amazing feeling..

I just have a small little worry..that the baby moved everything other than its head...& doc said that baby had one eye open & the other eye was closed...he could see that one eyelid was open & the other was closed..he said the baby is winking at us..It got me little worried..the doctor said that there is nothing to worry about, as the baby probably was still little sleepy.. & as long as there is heartbeat seen properly n d baby is moving its hands & legs..there is nothing to worry about..
but i am d kind who gets worried at small little things....Is this normal ladies???

Hope n pray that everything continues to be good for all of us..

Take care ladies...will keep u all in my prayers..

 

[Smiler82]

Oh I don't log off from my phone, I just close the site! Does that mean I still appear as online?? Oh well nevermind

This is really quick as we're about to leave for a weekend with the in laws but just wanted to say GOOD LUCK LILESMOM!!! I am so excited for you! I will be thinking of you xxx

withlovmom I know it's hard not to worry but I think it is so early for things to be working like a grown baby iyswim. The "What to Expect" site says they don't open their eyes til the 2nd tri anyway so I am sure he/she was just sleepy and also not quite got the motor skills yet to control things like that. They still have lots of growing and developing to do hun I'm sure will all totally be ok xx

babybemine good luck for your next test. I hope this is it for you sweetie xx

Hi Mommylov, hope you're ok!

All is fine with me, can feel baby getting stronger, movements and kicks etc are bigger Right must go and pack!! xxxx

 

[withlovemom]

Smiler..Thanx a lot hon....
Have a fun-filled weekend with ur family

 

[mommylov]

Morning ladies!

Smiler, Im doing well. Just waiting for Tuesday to get here! Hope you have a wonderful time this weekend!

Babybemine, Im hoping you are pregnant too hun! I too have never had betas ran unless I got a + HPT so Im not sure how that all goes but I hope that your levels rise and that you are in fact preggo!

Laura, how are you feeling? Hope you enjoy your last weekend as a "free" woman! heheh

Withlove, I know that we cant help but worry but Im sure everything is fine with your bub. Your dr seems confident in saying that he doesnt see anything wrong so try and relax and know that your lo is doing well. (I know easier said than done).

:wave: to everyone!!!

AFM~ no news... my dr was really sweet and text me yesterday to confirm that she will be theone doing my US on tuesday. She said that all the rooms and US techs were booked so she was going to just do it herself. Then she asked how I was doing and feeling and just wanted to check up on me. Told her about my SLIGHT bit of symptoms and she said "Yup, totally normal for you right now" since I am only 5 weeks. Anxious to see what Tuesday will bring with my beta results from the previous day and US!

 

[babybemine]
