Pregnancy after D&C

Stunning Dinky!! Perfect little bump.

Debs, hopefully AF doesnt arrive...Fingers crossed

Shrew, how are you feeling?

belaine, like I said, I used the pillow long after Connor was born. If he slept on my bed I would place it around him in case of rolling etc and when he started to sit I would place it around him too in case he fell backwards.

JB, I have a king size bed so pillow wont get in the way

How is everyone else?

Joybaby, I have her on fb. Kim Pauly... There's email address.

Hi there

having a really bad day at the office today!! My boss really rubs me the wrong way today. I havent even started on my stuff that i needed to do today. And head office requesting stuff that was already sent to them.
And my boss passing on things to do that i have no idea of, how on earth must i know the gp co ordinates from the packhouses!!

Back pain much better, believe me i use all the pillows and dh even laughs at me!!
Shame my dh was willing to make dinner last night even after he had made sunday lunch as well. but i took out steak already so i just made him steak and salad.

Debbie nice to hear from you again, fx for you!! good luck with bron can only imagine. Luckily you still have time till matric dance.

Dinky, love the pics thanks for posting them. your time is almost here i can hardly believe it!!

klk wanted to get the preggy pillow but just never got one!! and im almost at the end so dont want to get one now maybe i will get one with the next pg. Also had a bad night last night was awake at least 5 times then i have to go to the loo and then i battle to sleep again.

Es sorry to hear about G good luck thinking of you!!

Hi to all you other ladies take care let me get back to work. im really tired dont have energy but i have to do it!! and tonight its another session of that living beyond yourself.

Dinky such beautiful photo's wow!!!
You are carrying a lovely little basketball bump looking good hun
Hope your boss will allow you to work flexi hours this last little bit, I'm sure he will! I also did and worked from home the last week. The lack of sleep will get u ready for when baby arrives. It's quite a shock to your system. Nap and rest as often as you can, and start drinking jungle juice now already its a huge help, I was drinking 3Ltrs a day!
It's normal to be anxious about the c-sec as it's a big surgery. But most people have really good experiences and I dont have any bad experiences about mine.
Just take all the pain meds as they are offered to you to keep the pain at bay. From day 3 it will improve, and they will encourage you to try get a little mobile from day 2 but that first day you are not allowed to move. I would say try have hubby there as much as possible to help pass baby to you for feeds etc as its really hard to pick them up with the pain.

Klk I'm also loads bigger this time around, although it seems to have happened rather suddenly in the last month, before then all my clothes still fitted me.
I couldnt use those long pregnancy pillows it took up too much space in our double bed. I find sleeping more upright using continental pillows helps me some.

Debbie please keep us posted. Really hope you will get good news soon.
Sorry about Bronwyn's injury How long will she take to recover? Hopefully she can find shoes in time! Has she got a dress already?

Shrew congrats on your distinction!!!
Damn that flu! It seems quite common just before baby arrives?
I sent u a fb msg I dont know if you saw it. I want to know if you have contact details for Butterflies? A friend of mine's friend just recently found out her daughter has Trisomy 18 and I want to put them in touch. I dont know if she has received my email.

Ello Ladies,

Dinky - love the pics , Emily can come now we have waited long enough for her.

Klk - Love the bump pic , you are very brave not finding out which team , i would like to try that too , will have to see.

Mom2B - looks like ur LB is set and we are awaiting his arrival too.

Shrew - sorry you not feeling well hope it blows over quickly, I have a feeling your boss is not going to enjoy this holiday , if she even gets to see it. hows the sleep training going ?

Belaine- is your backache any better ? sjoe the weeks are flying by.

Es - Shame man G really seems to be in for the colds and flu this winter , hope he gets better soon.

Angi - I think you need to share a pic of your princess with Moomie , she is too cute.

Lucy - Congrats on ur wedding anniversary , how did the sleep out go?

AFM - not much news , waiting for AF to arrive if I am lucky or unlucky this weekend
should do it then we can see from there dont know if I told you Bron damaged the ligaments in her leg last Sunday so she is in a moonboot and on crutches which is not helping the shoe hunting for her matric dance , but at least it is keeping me out of the shops

Keep warm ladies , Chat soon

Morning Ladies,

Quickly popping in to load some pics from my maternity shoot

klk my c-sec is booked for 18 July (Mandela's birthday) - her actual due date is 24 July

Thanks ladies. Like I said, Im loads bigger than when I carried Connor. Its scary the difference. My next scan is only on the 6th July and Shrew, we are not finding out the gender. It is going to be sooooo hard but trying to be strong

belaine, I must say the preggy pillow worked like a dream and helped after I had Connor as with the c-section, I couldnt lie flat so I propped myself up with it and slept on it which was super comfortable and had the support that I needed. Plus used it with Connor throughout his first year. Which reminds me that I need to get another one.

Shrew, hope you feel better soon. Nothing worse than feeling sick. I hope it gets easier with Rowan. Im so glad that I never had to do that with Connor.

Es, Connor suffers with his ears too. Thankfully we havent had to go the Grommets route yet and hope not to. Hope G gets better soon too.

Dinky, its only normal to feel anxious and Im pretty certain you will feel like that up until you have Emily in your arms. Cannot believe it is around the corner already. What date is your c-section?
