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

[WelshRose]

Hey there Lovelys
Can I just say a huge thankyou to you all from the bottom of my heart for all the support you guys give without question every single cycle....you're all so amazing and I feel very lucky to have you as friends

Hayley....can't wait to see scan pics babe I shall have to log onto FB and have a peak at your bump...I'm useless with FB hardly ever go on there

Claire....You sound so chilled hun So glad you're all recoverd and Lil Macy is doing well bless her

Jane....I so hope it happens soon for you sweets...and everything goes perfectly Are you ready for Christmas?


Unfortunately the got me this morning. To say I'm tired of all this is putting it mildly...if I wasn't so stubborn I'd probably say enough is enough. It's been 2yrs 4mths now since we started ttc and a seems just as far away now as it ever could...even with all the increased knowledge etc. Starting to truly believe that Callum is our miracle....a miracle for being born so early without any problems...and a miracle it would seem to be here at all.
Sorry girls, I hate posting down in the dumps posts....just feeling really fed up.

have you tried clomid? it worked for us twice in the end. worth a shot.

don't feel bad posting when you are feeling crappy, i used to do it every cycle! it's what we are all here for

Hi girls!

so sorry i havent been around, just checking in to let you know i'm still alive, lol. Will do my best to catch up with you all soon, much love xxx

 

[bumble b]

morning everyone, how are you all? xxxxxx

 

[Bexx]

Hi girls, sorry I haven't been around much, Zachary is a handful lol. Just thought I'd check in and let you know I'm still around. Hope you and your little ones are all doing well.

Lisa, it's so lovely to see you posting here again, I was just thinking about you the other day and hoping you were OK.

Zachary is still going through his 4 month growth spurt, but hopefully we are nearing the end now. Unfortunately he's been having some unusual BMs these last few days, so we'll be off to the doctor today. I think it's something to do with teething, but best to rule out any probs.

 

[WelshRose]

Morning Hayley
OMG...I've just seen your scan pics....absolutely gorgeous hun Glad you held strong on team....Love to guess....I'm thinking at the moment...how about you???
How are you feeling? Have you bought many baby bits yet?

Not a lot going on here at the mo...as the siggy says just chillin this cycle without all the ttc "tools"...have to say I'm enjoying it
I haven't tried clomid hun, I'm seeing the old gyne on dec 6th so she may prescribe it then you never know I have used soy isoflavones thou last cycle and they definately made me ovulate...they are supposed to be natures clomid...you use them the same cycle days you would clomid. I took equivalent of 60mg of clomid last cycle on cd1-5, this cycle I've done 3-7 and then just taken folic acid and my iron without the cbfm, temping and opks...etc...etc...

Hope everyone else is ok xxx

 

[WelshRose]

Sorry Bexx...we must have been typing at the same time
Zachary is absolutely yummy in your avatar pic hun...
Callum used to get strange BM's with teething hun...and the only time he ever had a sore bum to...metanium (?sp) cream is marvellous thou hun...helpful to use when they are having the funny poos as it seems to protect their delicate skin more. Hope he's ok later at the docs and it is just teething

Well i have finally managed to put lily down and stop looking at her for 5 mins
i went in to early labour the day before had mild backache but still found myself cleaning the whloe house, moving sofa, cleaning cooker etc we decided to go out instead of just waiting at home we went to the new grand pier in weston super mare. The pains were getting alot stronger but managed to get the kids a macds before getting home(glad my waters didnt go in there)
i stayed at home for as long as i could and when i finally got t hospital at 6am monday morning i was 6cm dilated had some gas and air and by 8am i was ready to push, her heart kept slowing down and her head kept going up and down the birth canel they were only going to let me push for 5 more mins untill i would have to go to bristol which isover 45mins away but i didnt with the help of 4 lovely midwife ( it was the switch over and they didnt wanna go home till baby was born)
she arrived at 9.05am her cord was around her neck but otherwise all was well she had her eyes wide open when she arrived!!
it was so special being on team we really thought it was going to be a and so did everyone so when i looked under her cord to see a bundle i was so shocked but so happy it was a amazing if only you could bottle that feeling!!
and here she is my little girl thanks everyone for your advice and help

Hi hun

She is bloody gorgeous, she reminds me a bit of Macy when she was born. Its lovely to have a little girl again I should imagine, I was over the moon when I found out I was buying for pink! Your birth seemed very quick hunnie, the same happened to Macy, her heart rate kept dipping, but hers were during a contraction and was taking time to come back up hence a near ventouse for me! I wouldnt of wanted to of been transferred to another hospital that would of been horrific! Minutes away from giving birth and then being whisked off, well done you, its amazing what us women are capable of! Definately the stronger sex lol!!

Yep my little Macy still sleeping through, the latest she has woke through a whole night is 06:30 which is fab!! At the moment she seems to cry alot during the day, she just wants to be cuddled all the time and its so hard to get anything done. When I finally get her to sleep she doesnt nap for long so doesnt give me time to get much done, although given the chance she would nap on me for ages, I often have to take her in whatever room I am cleaning in. I remember with my other two they would have a good sleep in the morning and afternoon for a couple of hours, but I am struggling to get her in this routine as I am out alot at the moment. Its so hard keeping her occupied on days I am in, I am hoping it all subsides in a month or two as I read most of the crying is done in the first 3 months lol! All her lovely smiles, and cooing makes up for it though. She is trying to laugh but cant quite get the hang of it lol! We have our 8 week check on Wed, not looking forward to that as she has her jabs.

Right I am off to bed, hope you are all keeping warm, I am dreading my gas bill, lol! Take care xxx

hello :wave:

sorry i haven't popped in for a bit. i've had loads of crap going on with work! i took last tuesday off as holiday as i didn't want to drive in the ice & a few of the girls i work with were slagging me off on facebook, bit harsh i thought as they don't pay me to stay at home. i went to the drs the next day & he signed me off til my maternity leave starts on 1st jan, what a relief that was. all of them celebrated on facebook that i wasn't going back how low is that! steve is relieved that i'm home now, he hated the way work treated me.


so i'm officially a lady of leisure just in time for crimbo!!!

we now have loads of bits for the baby & it's all becoming very exciting. still can't decide on names though. so any suggestions welcome!!

i have my 25 week midwife appointment on friday so i'll be able to see if bump is measuring spot on for dates etc, i will pop on here & update you all.


hope all is good with everyone, are we all getting organised for christmas, i can't wait!!!!!!

lots of love from hayles xxxxx

 

[janelouise]

just wanted to wish you ladies a happy christmas and new year lots of love xx
