Due October 2018

Hi Beertjie
I no and understand your worries.
I am in the same boat if not worse, I started bleeding on Friday and I called in the Dr and she told me to come right away. She did a scan and everything was okay, we saw the baby's heartbeat and she was positive that everything is fine. She said that she saw lot of blood and even the vaginal scan came with some clots. She said she's not sure as yet what the cause is and maybe it could be an infection. She prescribed the Utrogestan to take 2 times until Sunday and 1 from Monday. She also took a urine sample to test for any infection and said she'll see me after two weeks that's if the results come back clean.
I am still bleeding even today, I called in the Dr cause this just scares me and currently waiting for the stand-in Dr to call me as my Dr is not in for the week.
I am just in the waiting game and hope and pray for the best. I have read on this and there are positive and also negative stories, I am just hoping that everything is fine and the bleeding will stop soon.
I will recommend that you see the Dr for emergencies as this can really be scary.

Hi girls

How are you doing? Last night I started to have some brown spotting...im so worried. I see my doctor in 3 days.

Thank you Beertjie

So today I bought the Mrs Palmer Tummy butter (smells realy nice), oh so heavenly body wash and Bon natural tissue oil (read really great reviews) and a fragrance free soap and roll on.

@ellam my husband read an article about toiletries and pregnancy a day before we found out were expecting so i just want to play it safe.

I am about 5 weeks along and seeing the gynae on Tuesday because of my dvt history.

Hi everyone!

Hope you are doing well? What was your blood count for this pregnancy?

JKL I find it the more kids their is the easier it gets. My 3 baby was so easy, yes there is days that is difficult and they fight sometimes alot. But I wouldnt change a thing. This littlebundle off joy was a big surprise and I'm so happy.

Welcome Kels and Madie!

For my tummy I only use (milksalf) and I mix it with tissue oil. At Dischem I buy pure glycerine soap I think their is 4 in a pack.

I live on a farm in the Northern Cape so its a long drive to the nearest city to see a giny.

Ellam my docter also said to only use my vitamins after 12 weeks because they make me nauseous.

Hi Ladies

Congrats to all the ladies that also had the BFP!!! We are all so blessed.

@JLK How is your morning sickness? I had a conversation with a doctor yesterday, and he told me that most of the morning sickness is the prenatal vitamins - what vitamins are you taking? He recommends that if you get severe morning sickness to just use Folic Acid and a normal multivitamin. Perhaps worth running by your gynea?

@Nicole - you should get that recipe for us - it sounds like it could work wonders!

To be honest - I still use the same as I would use before pregnant. Did not know that it may be a danger to the baby. Know I must go check!

Thanks, ladies! Have a wonderful day.

One day closer to meeting our babies!!!!

Welcome and congrats ladies!

@Madie, the dove should be fine to use. You should basically just stay away from any strong essential oils as some of those could be harmful.

@Nicole, the cream sounds amazing and I’m definitely going shopping this afternoon.

@kels Lol im also using camphor cream with the tissue oil. My husband wants me to stop using my original dove soap as it apparently is scented haha. Thank you

@Nicole that sound like a great mix. Going to the shops today to see what they have on offer. Bio oil and or Mrs Palmer is on my list so far
