AUGUST 2014 BABIES!

Hi ladies

It's been a while.

Does anyone know how Carmy is doing now, my heart goes out to her.

Gabi how did the scan go?

So Tuesday I went for my scan, it was the most scariest thing ever...after hearing what Carmy and Gabi went through. Seems everything is okay and on Friday I was 14 weeks, meaning i'm due end July but midwife thinks baby will only come early August.

Also went to talk to an independent midwife, think she is an angel, she thinks a VBAC is achievable but gave me hectic instructions on what to eat, exercise etc. So fingers crossed i'll have a home birth.

My energy levels is also returning and mood swings seems to be settling down. Constipation is still a real bugger, which is strange, as with my first born I had none of these problems.

That's it for now...just think that after this i'll need a boob reduction surgery, my back is killing me.

Hey ladies

Sorry I've been quiet - have so many things on my to do list and am not getting around to scratching them off.

On top of that, I started with a severe cold yesterday and am feeling like death warmed up.

Pharmacy said I can take Strepsils and then I researched and saw that I can't.

Tried Vicks in boiling water but can't breathe it up my nose so doesn't help. So badly need a decongestant. AND, my boss isn't very accommodating and gets super cross if we stay off work so no rest for me!

Our son has also been trying his luck the last few weeks - driving me bonkers - but I suppose partly normal.

Went for our scan last week - gynae asked if I was carrying twins - shocked face ahaahahahahahah - clearly I've popped early.

Everything looks good though. Weight was looking good for me - had only picked up 400grams. Weigh myself every morning and then one morning, voila, I gained another 1.3 - that's 1.7 in total!!!!! Been going to gym on and off but clearly not helping.

Please let me know what you ladies are eating - I'm desperate to not look like an elephant. My goal was 8kgs for this pregnancy but looks like I'll be doing double that

Okay enough moaning

Have an awesome weekend ladies.

Mwah Mwah!

Yes it's been very quiet on here lately. I haven't been on here in a while myself, was expecting to find lots of new posts. Please tell us how things went with your scan Gabi, it all sounds very stressful. I really hope everything is ok.

I'm 12 weeks today and the last three days I've been feeling much more energetic. It's so nice to come home from work and not need to collapse on the bed in an exhausted heap. I even cooked dinner 3 nights in a row! They say you should start feeling better at around 12 weeks, and it looks like the lucky number for me. Let's hope it lasts. Looking forward to my next scan in a week.

How is everyone else feeling?

Its so quiet here...where is everyone?

So extremely nervous for my scan tomorrow, just praying so hard that we will see a little heartbeat.
Have had some bleeding but trying to stay positive.

How is everyone else doing?

so sorry to hear that carmy.....

Hey there ladies

Been MIA

Carmy - will be thinking and praying for you. No words can make it better. Biggest hugs

Gabi - how far were you when you went for your scan? They shouldn't even do a scan if it's too early.

I'm going to tell my Principal tomorrow, although I know they all know because skinner spreads quickly.

Nighty night

Hi Ladies

so went for my scan on monday......no heartbeat, doctor thinks that the sac is empty
But he is not giving up hope, he wants me to come back in a week to scan again. He has prescribed me Cyclogest because my progesterone levels are very low , but just went to fill the prescription and Discovery refuses to pay for it (i would really like to write how I really feel about Discovery right now but I will probably be banned from this site)

The other problem is that we are not sure exactly how far along I am.
When I saw the stand in Gynae on the 27th Dec he said that I am probably 4-5 weeks along, but now the bloods I had done on Monday show 6 weeks and low levels of progesterone. Which means I was only like a week pregnant when I saw the stand in gynae and he found a sac. Can you even see or pick up on a pregnancy that early???
Don't ask me when my last period was I am useless at keeping up with those dates......

so I am kind of in limbo, my appointment is on the 27th and I don't know how I am going to get through this week.
