We Are Family...I've Got My BnB Sisters With Me!

[bumble b]

yay laura thats fab news and i love the name what did he weigh?

i got my scan date through & it's friday 6th august at 7:50am! very nervous but also excited coz if all goes well then we will start telling people close to us.

i did a predictor test and the line is twice as dark as the control line so that must be a good sign surely. i really need to stop panicking but i can't help it!

 

[janelouise]

bless you hayley not surprsied that your worried and panick you have wanted this for so long glad you have a scan date thats not long to wait how exciting xx

 

[im_mi]

Aw hayley thats great about the scan! glad its an early one, at least you wont be sitting around all day worrying about it!

Sorry to hear you're starting to suffer too, Jane it was at about your stage that mine started getting worse. get yourself straight to physio if you can, a specialist obstetric one, the sooner you go the better! Dont bother with the general physio's, they dont have a clue about pregnant women.

Aw bexx i really really feel your pain honey. Its so friggin hard at the beginning anyway, let alone when they scream and cry and puke all the time you're doing really really well, though, and i promise you it gets so much easier in time! PM or email if you ever need to have a bitch about it all and get it off your chest Sorry to hear your pain is coming back def. get back to the physio! im not too sure what our obstetric physio's do for postnatal care but she told me that if i am doing okay, just call and tell them i'd like to stay on open review so i can call and arrange an appt. any time.

Erin, oh yes i forget how much those anti-depression meds can mess with your... bodily things, lol. Although maybe if you're forced not to symptom spot, it will make this cycle easier for you emotionally

HOpe i havent forgotten anyone!! Serious baby brain at the moment. Pelvis is even better again today its amazing. I mean, it still hurts, and the walk down town was really hard work, but the difference was that when i got to the breastfeeding group i wasnt in agony and after a quick sit-down, i felt alright Hooray! really hope that my hips stay in the right place now.

Hope everyone's having a good day xxxxx

 

[bumble b]

morning ladies. how is everyone?

i'm 5+2 today every day is another one closer to the scan!

i've been having a nosey at some pregnancy threads but they all seem so opinionated (sp?) they've scared me off before i've even posted so i have decided to stay in here for the duration

 

[im_mi]

Hooray for 5+2!

i know what you mean about the pregnancy threads. in all honesty, this is the only thread i ever go into on BnB anymore other than the bf champions one occasionally. I got involved in some threads in 2nd tri a little while ago and ended up having a load of people have a go at me - apparently *i'm* not allowed to have an opinion but they were?? lol. This thread is so much nicer, i love catching up with you girls. we're all so different and yet no one here judges each other or anything like that. *warm fuzzies*

Sounds like your physio is pretty good. Mine isn't too bad, but it can be a while before they see you - I rang today and couldn't get an appt any earlier than mid-August and that will be the last one I can self-refer to as I'll be past 6wks post-partum. Can't believe I've got my postnatal checkup next week, it's suddenly started to go very fast lol.

Zach has been better the last couple of days, fingers crossed it continues.....

 

[loobi]

hello my flowers... how is everyone..
hayley.... yahhoooooo you are flying along and doing so well, an di am so very happy for you....

I too tried the join pregnancy clubs and am of the same opinion as you girls... this sounds silly, but i felt realy out of place, and may as well, have not even bothered posting most of the time..., so i stopped... and just floated around for a while waiting for you girls to come back in.....
so i was well pleased when we all got back into it again...

had great news at my appointment yesterday, baby has turned and is now in the head down position.... so i am now drining the rapsberry leaf tea.. i hadnt started with it, in case i went into labour with his still breech...

gonna get my ball back from DD now she has delivered... and get bouncing on that too....

this little baby , oh my goodness , he is just the best little thing.... i love being his nanny...

lotsa love girls.... i am very tired, but very happy at the mo... they are staying with us for the week, and i am loving having a tiny baby in the house...

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

[im_mi]

Aww loobi thats so lovely about your little grandson. i bet it makes you so excited for your new arrival too!! And its such great news that your little one has moved into the right place!

Bexx, thats fab news that zach is starting to settle down now The first 6 weeks is so hard for so many reasons. That sucks that you had to wait so long for an appointment! in all honesty i was gobsmacked with how quick they offered to see me, usually you have to wait for weeks for that kind of thing.

 

[Laelani]

Well the stupid got me before I got a chance to test. Ugh.

 

[janelouise]

Well the stupid got me before I got a chance to test. Ugh.

so sorry she got you lovely


well i have made it to v day so happy that if anything happened from now they would give the little one a chance

 

[im_mi]

aww congrats on V day jane

So sorry leilani

 

[ellaandcallum]

Hey girls

Just popping into say hi, sorry to hear your news Loobi, but congrats on becoming a nanny, how lovely, having DD stay is bringing it all back and will have you all prepared for when your LO arrives.

Such a relief Jane hey, I couldnt wait for V day, you can now begin to relax more now, not long and you will be in 3rd tri!!!

Hayley I am sure everything will be fine with this pregnancy, the little bean seems to be cooking away just nicely. How are you feeling? Any sickness??

Sorry Leilina the wicked witch got you, fingers crossed for next cycle hun.

Not much to report my end really, getting really fat lol, I have put on about 19lbs now, but I just seem all bump, well so I am told. I am getting very uncomfy now, the baby is very low and snug and feeling every movement down there and just above my pelvis, I do hope the head is engaged a bit but then I suppose it can pop in and out the more children you have had. I dont see my MW until 33 +5 so a couple more weeks to wait yet. The baby is defo running out of room, its more movements now and not lots of kicks, beginning to distinguish feet etc.

I have my raspberry leaf tea capsules now, but I am not starting them until 34 weeks, although it says not to be used before 30 weeks of pregnancy.

I am not sleeping at all, up every hour, for wees, heartburn, hunger and then once I am up cant get back to sleep, I thought it was to do with the iron tablets but not sure whether its just the norm, I cant really remember. I am just glad the holidays are here otherwise I would never get up at 07:00 for school. I am lucky I have lazy children, Callum will prob get up about 09:30 maybe later and Ella well she could sleep until midday!!! So I am taking advantage of this at the moment.

I have all my baby stuff now, the hospital bag is 98% packed so pretty much good to go. I am so hoping early rather than later.

Anyway thats me girls, take care and catch up again soon. I think I move up a box on my ticker in a couple of days, woo hooo 8 months!!!! xxxxxxx

Loobi...I'm so sorry to hear about your Dad and your Aunt Lovely
Excellent news that you're a Nanny again...glad everything went ok. How was the birthing experience from a mother's perspective? I think my MIL is going to be there with my SIL when she has her LO in January.

Leilani.....Sorry you have an unwelcome visitor at the moment chick....lots of and for the coming cycle.

AJ....how are you sweets?....

AFM.....Not a huge amount of excitement this end....I'm hoping that O is just around the corner....really felt like I was on the brink of O yesterday but no temp rise this morning and CBFM is still on high...
Curious as to what the tww is going to bring as it's the cycle that Jenny Renny predicted a ....don't think I'm going to be that lucky tbh and I think I'd rather a more summer due date....C'mon Gail...let that prediction be right

Big Hugs and Love to all xxxx

 

[JLove84]

AF got me today! I thought yesterday it was maybe implantation bleeding because it was real light and only when I wiped, and no cramps, but now it's heavy and cramps as usual. Oh well....

 

[WelshRose]

Sorry she got you babe Do something nice tonight

Still waiting on O here....hoping it's going to be soon and not another annovulatory spell.

 

[bumble b]

oh no erin, hope next cycle is lucky for you, fingers crossed

i have made it to 6 weeks scan on friday & i keep having dreams that they scan me & find no baby, i wish it was friday today! the waiting at the moment is the worst bit. i feel fine except for sore boobs & the odd feeling of nausea.

work haven't been very sympathetic, the day after i told them, my manager made me put a whole delivery away on my own!!! so if all goes well with this pregnancy then i shall be leaving fairly early, about 32 weeks would be nice

hope you are all well xxxxxx

 

[Laelani]

Thanks everyone! I have a question/concern. I had AF this past week. I ended up only having it for like 3 days which is abnormal AND then yesterday I had a spot of really bright red blood. Is it possible to have a period before a BFP?

 

[bumble b]

yes it is hun, have you tested again? xxx

 

[Laelani]

Not yet just got this post now. I will test again tomorrow morning. Thanks!!

 

[bumble b]

well the scan was amazing, it was like a little blob with a flicker in the middle, absolutely blown away by it all! it is such a relief. he said it was in the right place & that he's happy with everything

he put me forward 2 days so due 27th march now.

just to update you all on laura, she's in hospital because her waters broke & she said she may be having a section today so keeping everything crossed that she announces little mans arrival some time in the next couple of day, how exciting!!!! xxxxxxxxxxx
