Re: New Mommies to be May, June & July 2011

The green influence is from Matthews nursery

WOW Milan that is what 3 visits cost me - my gynae is just over R400 a visit.

Our 4d scan was awesome - baby showed us nicely what he looks like

All well this side - I have started getting those terrible leg cramps and twice in my inner thigh - I actually cried

MsDee - I stopped weighing myself and my gynae doesnt do it either but I can see I have picked up more than I wanted to I am also rather paranoid at the moment - every ache and pain I stress I am in labour Glad your urine tests were clear though!

Solo - sorry about the fall - I walk like a granny when I approach anything wet or uneven or pretty much anything really

BettyF - HOW are you still sane - I am nearly 34 weeks and already am over it LOL I dont do waiting well at all!

some pictures of the nursery (old study)

How are all the new Mommies coping? Hooe you get time soon to post some pictures.

Solo- how are you feeling after your fall? The next day after the shock has worn off can sometimes be more painful

MsDee - glad that your urine test came back all clear! Hope you get some peace of mind when you go to the gynae on Thursday. I also gained 3kg in a weeks- over Easter. And saw some lines on either side of my hips last week. I never got any stretch marks with M. I hope our lines go away!

Esmari- my aunt mentioned to me yesterday that she had 2 natural births then a c section and then she had 2 vbac's She is the only person that I know of who has actually had a vbac. Seems to be really uncommon.

Milan- yay on expecting a LG. So wonderful that she is doing so well! I have to ask who your gynae is? His /her fees are astronomical! How long is the appointment for? I think our gynae charges R350 or something per visit. The cost of the 4D scan was R 800.
Enjoy the 4D scan, let us know how it goes. Unfortunately my LG covered her face with her hands, so never got to see her face nicely. Hope for a great view for you!

Mandymel- R700 a visit also seems like a lot... I know our savings will be over after about one clinic visit. Those injections are so expensive. Hope your DH's tooth ache miraculously disappears.

Thamu- glad you are feeling well- sounds like you had a good break- soon you can join in on the wine tasting! I really used to enjoy a glass of wine, but at the moment the fought if it makes me a little nauseous - hope that feeling goes away lol

Rakker- how are you feeling today? Hope you are managing to get some rest.

AFM- the back pain has subsided....nearly 41 weeks

Tshepy! Wow, what a surprise! So glad they picked up the potentially dangerous condition. It could have turned out badly, so thank God for your little miracle!

No other personals as I seriously need sleep... Was admitted last night after the 5th blood clot episode in 1 day and had a D&C this morning. So glad I went for it after all as my iron levels (hemoglobin) dropped in 3 days from 12.5 to 9.3 (12-16 is normal). I feel very funny (light headed, weak etc.) after the anesthetic and also due to the low iron (even though I got the iron drip), but the heavy bleeding is gone. Thanks for all the concern. I looove my Moomie family .

Will do personals when I start feeling a bit less light headed .

Congratulations Tshepym01, i do hope you and the baby continue enjoying good health and thank God the baby was born safely.
@Rakker, thanks for the birth story it was indeed inspirational but i hope you are better with the bleeding and are now able to spend time with the baby.
@Esmari, thanks for the photos, really looking nice, my girls told me today that the tummy is now really grown maybe it was the dress i was wearing
@Milan, congrats with the baby girl review and the fact that she is fine am also on the 2 girls and still hoping its a Boy 3rd tim around route.
@Solo, sorry about the fall, but i do hope that nothing bad besides the ankle that i know will heal as the baby needs all the protection there could be.
@MsDee, i do believe all will be well with you and that the tests came out so well for you.
@Betty_F i do wish i was in your shoes really i truly cant wait but well what can a girl do, wait until week 40 i guess.

AFM Holiday over today so went to work and waking up was a challenge in itself aafter 1 and half week of just being at home and doing nothing really. Went for a small trip to Stellenbosch unfortunately were given wrong address for venue and looked and looked and by the time we were given the write address i think i was clocking 2km and in a team of 3 was walking like 200m behind. the challenge for me is the walking espeically when am rushed. But the day ended well as we went for a wine tasting tour, didnt really particiapte excpet enjoy the view of the Gorge below the farm that was priceless.

Besides this i feel soo ok and am praying this trend continues until baby comes.
