Aw I like the xtreme travel system from mothercare too..x

 

[baileybubs]

I'm gonna buy mine in january with all my other stuff in hope that I can get it all in january sales lol!

My SIL and BIL are giving me their moses basket and some other stuff. I didnt know what to say when they asked if we wanted it but I guess them having it in their house is probably too upsetting for them. Aw they are going to do the most amazing thing with their daughters ashes, they are getting them made into crystals and put into a ring for each of them so that she will always be with them. I thought that was an amazing idea.

 

[CherylC3]

Aw I'm hoping to get one in the jan sales too, aw tht is so nice wot they're doing...x

 

[baileybubs]

I keep saying I'm gonna buy all this stuff in January but with what money I don't know lol!!

 

[CherylC3]

Aw I'm lucky my mums buying us our pram and my grans getting our nursery furniture so we just hav house stuff to get done like new wardrobes and the loft floored. X

 

[Pinkorblue11]

Awww, I think that's lovely to do with their sweet little ones ashes, Bailey.

We still kept the travel system from our little angel, and the baby food maker. All that's left is clothes, cloth diapers, diaper bag and other odds and ends. I hope to shop sometime in February or early March.

Ohhh Bailey I just read your post. I'm so glad that your little baby girl is ok. Do you think the blood is coming from your anus and not your vagina? I have had blood after pooping as well and quadruple checked and it was coming from my behind there was nothing up front. Just a thought? I started to cry when I read what your family is doing with the ashes of their little girl. How beautiful.

I haven't thought about strollers yet. I will wait until we get closer.
Hope everyone is doing well. Please take it easy Bailey.

 

[baileybubs]

Thanks mg, it was definately vaginal blood, they checked at hospital. They have no idea what's caused it but fingers crossed it was a one off and no more bleeding. I'm taking tomorrow off work anyways.

Hope everyone else is ok xxxx

Hi ladies!

I've just decided to revisit this site & after looking around have made my mind up to stick around. I am currently 19 wks (today) pregnant with a little boy bun, expected to arrive on April 14, 2013 In September of last year I had a MC @ 17wks2days along, it was a boy. 5here was never any clear explanation as to what happened, Doctor categorized it as just another random MC, according to autopsy report baby was developing fine.

I am a type 2 diabetic, have been for 10yrs already, I am considered a high risk preg. Fortunately unlike the 1st time, this time around the Doctors are more attentive, I am seeing a specialist & I get scans at every appt. My first preg was rough as I wasnt seen for my first check up til I was 13 wks along due to careless medical staff. Between poking my fingers & injecting my insulin I go through 9 pokes on a daily basis to keep my sugar levels at a normal range, and I still wouldnt change that for the world.

As you can imagine like you all, I was also terrified of going through the same thing all over again, so when the 17th wk came along I was super emotional, upset, scared then the 18th wk came & I felt kind of relieved thus making my way back to these forums. Im excited, nervous & a bit scared but I dont let my fears get in the way of my enjoying my pregnancy anymore.

Wishing you all a blessed pregnancy.

ohhh & I just got a prenatal listener, though I cant hear his HB yet, I can surely hear him kicking around.

Welcome dodgerlove!

Sorry for the loss of your son, but congratulations on getting to 19 weeks!! PAL can be so hard and the worry never goes away but its really nice to be part of a thread full of people that understand. When is your next scan?

AFM - more bleeding again this morning, only a little again and only after a number 2 again, I am now convinced it actually come from behind and NOT from my vagina. They checked for piles and everything yesterday and said they couldnt see any blood so assumed it was vaginal blood. But perhaps it was an anal fissure or burst blood vessel that keeps re-opening whenever I do a number 2, coz it does sting when I first go (sorry for the tmi ladies!!). Going to see my doctor later to get some advice and maybe get a stool softener to see if that stops it happening. Plus I have blood test results from last week so I can check if anything showed up on them.
On the positive though, Millie is wriggling away and her heart beat is perfectly fine! So glad I have a Doppler!!

Hi Dodger, I'm so sorry about your sweet little Elijah. Congrats on getting to 19 weeks and I wish you many, many more weeks of a healthy, peaceful as possible pregnancy. Congrats on being team blue too!! I love his name too, gave my little 20 weeker the same middle name.

My week of terror is coming this Friday. I'm praying I don't see my mucus plug come out again..

Bailey~ Ouch, I know that feeling all too well and I'm sorry you're experiencing this. I hope it heals very soon for you, mine would take over a week before I could go pain free. I think a stool softner is a great idea. Happy to hear Millie is doing great!

 

[baileybubs]

Thanks pinkorblue, and to add to my stress I have my driving test tomorrow!! If I could I would have cancelled it but its too late for me to cancel now and get my money back so I may as well just take it anyway coz either way I wont get my £100 back!!

Welcome Dodger

Sorry for your loss, and congrats on making it to 19 weeks team blue I'm starting to worry I might be developing GD. My dad has adult onset type 1 diabetes (unusual but apparently it happens) and I have a few other risk factors. I've noticed the past week I've been excessively thirsty. Hopefully I'm being overly paranoid. I didn't develop it in any of my other preganancies but I am over 35 now so my odds go up.

Bailey I'm so glad to hear Millie is still doing well. I don't think I've ever had cause to say this before but I hope you're bleeding out your butt In all seriousness unless they went in with a scope I don't see how they can tell that you don't have internal hemmorhoids or a tear or something.

Pinkorblue fingers crossed for you

Marathongirl see you soon!

 

[CherylC3]

Welcome dodge congrats on 19wks..xx

Bailey last wk I had bleeding from behind just when I wiped tho.. It was stingy lol...xx

Just home from Xmas shopping treated myself to new bras I've went from a 32b to a 32dd loving my new boobs..x

 

[marathongirl]

Bailey I'm convinced the bleeding is coming from behind. I have had that a couple of times this pregnancy. It seems to have gotten a lot better over the last few weeks thank goodness. The fact that Millie is wriggling and her hb are perfect are signs that all is well.

Welcome Dodger and congrats to make it to 19 weeks. Also yay for being team blue!!

Rainkat- hope you don't have GD. Still waiting for doctor she is 30 mind behind. Grrrr... I will text you as soon as I'm out! It's not a long apt today.

Cheryl- yay for shopping. I need new bras mine leaves a huge mark after I take it off like its cutting in. I would say I'm at least up a size! Dh loves it!

 

[baileybubs]

Thanks ladies, I am feeling much better about it all today. It was just soooo much blood on Saturday that it didnt seem like it could have come from behind but fingers crossed it was and Millie is just fine. And a positive out of this, I had fybogel twice yesterday and this morning and been able to poop twice today lol (sorry tmi) and second time didnt hurt as much and there was no blood yay!!! The things we find to celebrate eh ladies??

Now I'm just panicking about my driving test, but I am gonna take PMA with me, I can do this, I'll be doing it for Millie, and if I do fail, I just have to take it again in a couple of weeks!

Cheryl - I hate my new boobs! 36J and they are sooooooo heavy and saggy lol!! Would be better if I had a more supportive bra I suppose but I just cant afford to pay £40 for one and most normal shops dont go up to that size grrr! But again, at least Millie will benefit because I want to breastfeed so its all for her and that makes it all worth it!

 

[baileybubs]

MG my bras are like that too! Have you got ones without underwire coz I have read that underwires can damage milk ducts or something??

 

[Pinkorblue11]

Marathon~ How's your DS's ankle doing? I've been meaning to ask..

Bailey~ Sending you more PMA! You will ace your driving test!

Kat~ I hope you don't develop GD, I'll be thinking of you. xx When will you have testing done?

Cheryl~ Glad you're loving your new boobs!

I'm still waiting to get new bras, my maternity store was out of my bra sizes. :/ The sales tried to be helpful and said they do have online selections, great, but I prefer to try them on first. I'll check again next month.

 

[marathongirl]

Pink- thanks for asking. It's much better we have been icing the heck out of it. Kids are so resilient! He is still limping a bit and I've said no running(yeah right).

Bailey-glad you are able to go. What a relief I remember it well! You will pass your driver's test for sure. Thinking about you.

AFM- I am going to look for new bras this week. I do have underwire in them so maybe I should get one's without? I didn't know that about the milk ducts??

 

[CherylC3]

I got underworked ones il maybe get ones without in a cpl months when there bigger again lol...xx

Bailey good luck Hun for today. Xxx
