HI all, hope you are all OK.
Expressmummy, hope scan goes well, but I do know that treatments have moved on for CF now...really thinking of you xxx

Cadmum · 03/10/2005 15:05

newgirl: I am sorry if I upset you. I was really just trying to wind Munzie up...

munz · 03/10/2005 15:07

munz · 03/10/2005 16:54

will email u back tomorrow from home - DH on nights again this week won't see him for the next three days after today

Frizbe · 03/10/2005 17:00

Expressmummy {{{Big Hugs}}} Huge shock, really hope things look up after the scan, I do know twins who have CF and they're both fine most of the time unless run down... scientists are also very close to finding a cure for it (according to a friend whose a Dr) and can treat it very well these days.

Munz, look on the bright side, whole bed to yourself, no snoring to put up with, eat what you like, when you like etc, etc....

Hi to everyone else, hope your all ok, I have a stinking headache, but am fine bar that!

munz · 03/10/2005 17:01

lol - I know friz - fish and chips tomorrow for lunch!

Frizbe · 03/10/2005 17:03

did you have to say that Munz, now I want some! must dash, dd to pick up!

RosiePosie · 03/10/2005 17:36

It's good to hear people have more positive experiences of CF than me. Sorry mine was so negative. This was over 15 years ago that I knew the sisters - I'm sure things have improved for CF sufferers a lot in that time.

expressmummy · 03/10/2005 18:34

chellebelle · 03/10/2005 20:13

Expressmummy - please bear in mind that all the blood test has shown so far is that you're high risk - that doesn't mean that your baby has it. You may go and have the scan tomorrow and it be all clear. At least they've booked you straight in for a scan tomorrow - have to say for the NHS to get you in for a scan the next day is doing very well! Praying for you loads.

{{{{{big hugs}}}}}

romilly · 03/10/2005 22:28

expressmummy - wishing you all the best for your scan tomorrow.

cadmum - gorgeous piccie! another photogenic bubba

munz - glad to hear you havent had to resort to prunes - what a relief for you

dene - YES, i know exactly how you feel, i have been horrendously sick since week 6 and i am now almost week 18. i couldnt eat a thing, so i am looking forward to the ravenous stage.

desperatehousewife: thks for welcome - my stats as follows:

rom - 38 yrs old
second pregnancy, but first sadly ended in m/c
due date: 8th March - so 17+3 (same as Cadmum and Munz (depending on which date munz has chosen to believe )

friz - how did the jeans shopping go?

RosiePosie · 04/10/2005 07:54

I felt very sick for a long time in my second pregnancy - until 18 or 20 weeks. It resulted in a girl. My first and this pregnancy, the sickness was not nearly so bad, ending at about the 12 week mark. First was a boy, and I can't wait to find out in two weeks time if this one is another boy, like I think it is!

munz · 04/10/2005 07:59

good luck today EM- i'll be on looking for u ll morning if u want to chat. ((((hug))))

rom - depend on my mood! lol - at the mo i'm beleiving the hopital date - but only co it' further along, and i'm an impatient mare! - even though I know thye're def wrong! have u got the date thru for ur next can yet? mine' 21t oct, i'll be exactly 20 weeks by my dates so we'll see what they have to say then. been getting a lot of aches and pains under my bump, and ahem my foof! lol - but am assuming all is normal - hopefully it comes an goes, no bleeding or anything, (and am trying my up most to relax now about things - but it's so hard to)

on the plus DH's friend's wife went into labour yesterday - he's hoping for a boy but the hospital have said a girl!

lol@ friz! chips today i it honey? he he

Frizbe · 04/10/2005 09:08

Express Mummy thinking of you today xx
Nooooo Munz, I'm avoiding the chips! but they do sound nice tho honey, you enjoy yours! actually don't have a clue what to cook for tea, must go and stick head into freezer and get something out to defrost! Lamb maybe, mmmmmmmm
Rom, didn't get jeans in the end, I have on a nice slouchy pair of next combat type things in green am still looking for anything else that takes my fancy!
Hope everyone else is well.

Dene · 04/10/2005 09:47

Expressmummy - good luck for today. Let us know how you get on.

I'm feeling quite energetic today so I'm going to go and do some ironing before the feeling passes!

newgirl · 04/10/2005 10:13

Munz - fantastic!! You are a computer whizz. Can you tell me what this means? R2 - Will only play on European Region 2 or multi-region DVD players.
I have a DVD player bought in the uk in boots 1 year ago, so do you think it will work?

Cadmum - no worries at all - it all made me laugh a lot!!

will check in later to hear em news

munz · 04/10/2005 10:15

erm think so will double check with DH thou, region 2 is our one I think, region 1 is for america and 3 is for anywhere else - I assume it will wor cos it's an english company.

munz · 04/10/2005 11:36

EM - any news yet ((((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))))) fingers firmly crossed for u honney.

poppyh · 04/10/2005 12:41

Alot seems to have happened here over the past few days.
EM am thinking of you, hope you have some good news today.
Hope everyone else is okay.
Dreamt I had a little girl last night, dont know if it means anything though!!
Going clothes shopping now will check in later.
Take care everyone.xxx

expressmummy · 04/10/2005 13:03

hi all well after a 20 scan of my baby boy everything seems to be fine we had a good luck at his back and there are no breaks or wholes it was actually spina bifida they thought it was !!!!!!!

i feel great now knowing he is fine and to find out its another boy is great

they are going to scan me every 8 weeks now because women with high hormone count are at risk of small babies

thanks for all your kind words yesterday
em x x x x x

expressmummy · 04/10/2005 13:04

20 minute scan that is im to overjoyed to type

Cadmum · 04/10/2005 13:14

Oh, EM you must be so relieved! Thank goodness for the all-clear and a scan eveny 8 weeks sounds nice too.

Congratulaions on another son. It will be SO hard for me not to find out the gender at my next scan...

Cadmum · 04/10/2005 13:15

I meant to add that I fell down the stairs this morning at 3:20. OUCH! I am bruised on my right forearm and my left shoulder and hip. Thankfully I didn?t land on my bump but I am some sore this morning!
