Hey Becca, how’s things with you? Almost at the 30 week mark, yay!

I know, it has flown by. I am starting to get tired by bed time now and have a bit of heart burn!
How are you doing? countdown is on! xx

Thanks love. I’m so devastated but we will just have to keep trying.
Just so shit being right back at square one again but I guess it is what it is.
Just hope that wasn’t my only chance.
I’m getting so worried about turning 43 and still not being pregnant with my rainbow.
I know from 43 it gets even harder to fall and stay pregnant.

Im very scared about trying. I just don’t want to go through anymore loss.
Im praying if we do fall again it will be my take home rainbow baby.
Just worried it’s never going to happen and will just keep losing.

@Becca_89 I get you on the tiredness. I didn’t know but my iron levels were pretty low so went for an infusion the next day and it’s been 48 hours since then and starting to feeling human again. I was at the stage where having a shower required a nap afterwards, it was yuck. I was living on sugar and sadly too much caffeine as it was the only way I could do basic things. Sounds a bit dramatic doesn’t it lol. How’s your bump growing? I feel like I’ve had a massive growth spurt recently!

 

[Lucy3]

Hope the other ladies in this group are doing well, would love to hear how everyone is doing

Oh gosh, I hope you are ok, that sounds scary! How was the infusion?
My bump went hugge, but I slowly seem to be growing upwards rather than out, well it is slowly down slightly, still feel very big.
I have my next scan next week, looking forward to seeing how he is getting on!
I keep checking in on the other group to get me excited! When I see July babies are arriving it means its almost time!
Are you working? xxx

 

[Lucy3]

Ooh exciting about your scan @Becca_89 . I also have my scan next week! Still get nervous before scans, even this far along. Will they put the 3D on for your during it? I really hope they do at mine, I’m finding it hard to picture this little baby kicking me! Infusion was so good, finally feel human again. July babies are rolling in, so exciting!

Ooo I didn't know 3D was an option with the NHS scans! I would love to see what he looks like?
Is yours in the hospital?
aww so so exciting! I am adamant he will come 25th August, I set a date with my last baby and she arrived lol, so I thought I would give it a go! I even previously told friends I was busy that date as would be giving birth, didnt think it was actually going to happen lol! Hope your scan goes well, what day is yours? x

 

[Lucy3]

@Becca_89 lol that’s so funny! So she actually came on the date you had in your head? I love that! The countdown is on to August 25th, how many weeks will you be then? My dd was booked in for a scheduled c/s at exactly 39 weeks but she decided to make her way out a few hours before it which I loved as she chose her own birthday which happened to be when it was booked for. This one I want to wait till 40 weeks for a c/s, if I make it to that it will be my first scheduled one, think I actually prefer the idea of a rushed one as the thought of coming into hospital not in labour and being cut open scares me. My scan is one I have to pay for (I’m in Australia so we have similar to NHS) so hopefully they turn it on as it cost a small fortune!

Yes she arrived on the day I planned lol, I was gutted when I woke up and no signs of labour, but by 2pm my plug went and 5pm she was here! I will be 39 weeks on 24th, both of my other 2 were born at 39 weeks exactly and delivered by the same midwife in the same room, I bet this one will be the complete opposite lol.

What is your due date again? How are you feeling?
If you go into spontaneous labour do they take you in for a Csection still?

xx

 

[Lucy3]

Becca I love that you knew when your baby was coming! Also how amazing is delivering in the same room with the same midwife, hope that happens again. I’ll be 39 weeks on August 22 so we’re so close. With my dd I went into spontaneous labour at 1am the morning of my scheduled cs and by the time I got into hospital I was 8cm but the OB said the same thing as the one I had with ds, my babies stay so high up which I think means my pelvis is a bit small. With my ds I got to 10cm and pushed for hours but he wasn’t budging. So my dd ended up being a cs too. I kind of want to go into labour on my own so this little one can choose his birthday. I’m feeling like a new person, I’m almost 2 weeks post iron infusion and it has made all the difference! How are you? Do you have a scan this week?

 

[Lucy3]

How’s everyone here going?
@Becca_89 how did your scan go?

 

[Becca_89]

Aww its a lovely thought of them choosing their own birthdays. Im glad you are feeling better!

My scan was Thursday, all went well, my placenta moved down so its in the correct position now and he is measuring perfectly. I also have been discharged from consultation led to midwifery as everything is going so well, so I am very happy.
How did your scan go? did you get the 4D scan? I couldn't see much of baby at all on mine, it was too close up

How are you doing? xx

 

[Lucy3]

@Becca_89 That’s great you’ve moved to midwifery care! Aww so glad he is measuring perfectly and your placenta has moved. What a relief!
The same thing happened at my scan, his head is so low and facing my back and also the cord was in front of his face so I couldn’t see anything. She didn’t even bother sending a pic! She tried the 4d but it was just a jumbled mess lol. he has had a growth spurt and is now around the 60th percentile overall but his tummy is 90th! Makes sense, I tend to have chubby babies. Are you getting many braxton hicks? I’m getting them at night and sometimes with quite intense period pain feeling which freaks me out but then I’m fine in the morning.

 

[Becca_89]

Aww I love a little tubby baby! My measurements showed the tummy measuring 2 weeks ahead too, I hope he comes out a bit chubby. Im glad it all went well though, shame about the images.
I am starting to get braxton hicks, I weirdly get pains in my bum though. I get cramping mainly when in bed, but nothing too intense. I can't believe how fast time is going.
Are you all set for the baby?
do you have names?
We are starting to declutter the house and get my current baby out of the bedroom (had intentions of moving until the military changes their minds 2 weeks ago)
But staying as chilled as possible lol.
