Pregnancy after D&C

Hi all

Girly we are still very undecided bout the whole moving thing, I'm not very keen to move I'm very family vas... Aa sweet kaylee is growing up so quickly...before u know it she is running around, any plans for nr 2, how's the work front going?... I'm doing ok just glad to have DH back, I slept so snugly last night...we aren't really ttcing as DH says we are just having fun...I got the fright of my life the account for the blood tests was sent to my mum post box and the medical aid refused to pay, the medical wants a motivation letter from my gynea as to why he ordered all the test, just glad that it is sorted out for real this time...

Lucy how you feeling u at home yet...

Sue I'm so glad for you here's hoping for some good news from you soon...

Esmarie how u feeling have you settled in yet how's the ankle doing now...

Klk did u manage to get enough BD in this month for a BFP...

Debbie how's working with hubby going?

Claire how u feeling its not long to go till ur bundle is here...

Sue so glad to hear all is well!
And sounds like your gynae is ready to help you conceive, also good for him to check DH swimmers too.

Debbie how are you doing? Are you TTC again?

Klk how are you doing? Looking forward to your gynae visit? Is DH still smoking? Apparently zinc is very good for the swimmers!

Lucy are you home yet? I really hope you have healed and had no further problems and that you are enjoying Tessa!

How are all the preggie ladies doing? Claire when do you go on ML? Have you started decorating baby's room? Have you chosen a name for LO?

Angi how are you doing? What's the latest re moving? Whats the ttc plans?

AFM we're doing well. K has 2 teeth now and I think she's teething again. Cant believe she's already 7,5 months old!
She's starting to try figure out the crawling thing. It comes with a few bumps and bruises unfortunately and today she fell over forward while trying to get onto her knees and hit her head, I felt so bad
But once she starts crawling things are going to be very different I recon! Excited but rather scared about the prospect and a bit sad that its going so quickly and my little girly isn't so little anymore.

Oh Lucy CONGRATULATIONS Tessa is absolutely beautiful! Sorry about the challenges but glad to hear you are both OK!

Esmari moving is not fun and I am sure twice as difficult when you are pregnant- hope you find your kitty and settle in OK!

to everyone else hello!

Well went to Gynie for annual check up and all looks good. Told him about DH's Prostatitis issues and he says we should wait for about three months after this last procedure and he must go for a sperm count test as next step to see how the swimmers are doing.

So Glad Year end is just a few days away! PHEW!

Afternoon Ladies.

Lucy - your little Tessa is so cute, sounds like you had a tough birth glad you are feeling better and T is a champion breastfeeder.

Es - how things going today, are you settling in?

It is all grey here today and my mood reflects teh same not liss to do much ......

Shame Lucy, sounds like you did go through quite an ordeal. Thankfully you are both well. When I had Connor, he was quite low in my pelvis so when Candice pulled him out, one of my muscles got torn in the process too. I took a lot of strain with my c-section. Just be prepared my first day at home my feet swelled worse than ever whilst pregnant oh and Im not sure about everyone else that had a c-section but from about day 4 or 5 at home I got terribly constipated and it was not fun with the pain of the c-section. I battled to sleep flat (at home) I remember the one day I couldnt get out of bed. Lance had gone up to his folks and I was in agony. Ended up phoning him in tears to come home. Thankfully they live 5 minutes away.

Im so glad that you have bonded so well and that Tessa has latched so nicely.

I cant wait for my turn again!!!

Lucy thanks for sharing! It all makes sense now.
Wow hun it really seems like you went through a lot! I'm glad they managed to control the bleeding - that can be very dangerous - and that you and Tessa are safe now.
Did the voltaren help any? The 2nd day after the c/sec the pain was really bad for me too but after day 3 it gets better but still take it easy and let the nurses help raise your bed / pass T to you etc.
How is hubby about her?
Oooh I remember those first days so clearly. The feelings of unbelief and overwhelming joy and happiness that she's yours and you get to take her home.
I totally agree re the bonding. It happens with time, as you spend 24/7 with them and they get to know you and rely on you entirely, and you get to be the one to provide for them and while they stare back at you its so worth all of it!
Sounds like you've got this mommy thing down already
And awesome re the latching! So happy for you hun!
When will you be discharged? Just a warning that day 4 before discharge was hectic for me because K was also born on a Friday. The Monday morning all the normal staff return, they do the jaundice test, hearing test, a bunch of other observations so they keep taking baby away for it and you are trying to pack meantime and it was a bit overwhelming for me. Hope its better for you than that.
Keep well hun and thanks so much for the update! You're doing better than I did when K was born.

Me again. I have written a brief story of what happened etc on march april thread but I am on phone and can't copy and paste. So please in read there if u r interested. Sorry to do this! So little time, and don't want to be awol. But as u'll see from post that I think i'll be able to be around a little more from now.

Klk, Angi and Girly - thanks <3 I think she is the bee's knee's too.:-P
