Pregnancy after miscarraige.........POWER to the Beanies!!!!

[oinker]

Ermmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..

Hope this is OK.

Please feel free to change it to something else if not totally satisfied.

DHW - What does life throw at you, so so sorry to hear this. I hope you get some answers why this is happening.

Congrats wills. You nicked the only name DH and I agree on! We can't agree for a girl at all, but for a boy just last wk or the wk before we decided on Jacob Joseph for a boy (JJ) but we'll not be shortening it to Jake. I don't think we will have a boy tho, I'm obv not programmed for them! Looking forward to seeing a photo of him, you must link if you've not already posted in member profiles. Sorry to hear of the thrush, personally in that instance I wouldn't blame you for giving up!

Congrats Wills!!!!

good luck for today arabica, thinking of you.

Mygirl - i heard about the clinic at a hospital visit, then accientally found them on the net. There is one in shrewsbury that was in my mother and baby magazine will try and find it for you. found it, its called babyvision, there site is www.babyvision.co.uk and the other one was www.mums.me.uk can't be bothered with the link, might nto work again.

DHW i am so very sorry for your loss, what an awful shock for you. makes me so that you are going through this again. our thoughts are with you.

wills - congratulations to you hun, fantastic news. hope you're recovering well.

DHW, just logged on and discovered your news, am so very, very for you. I will find your other thread and post on it but please don't feel you are 'bringing down the thread'--it's what we are here for.
My scan was OK, not as scary as the first MRI I had which was on my spine and took forever. Just waiting for results now, was told 2 days, but who knows.

Wills, many congratulations to you & family and baby Jake.

Thanks Diddle will check those out

Morning everyone hope alls ok.

the rain has pounded the mosaic pot i made for my babys memorial tree and loads of mosaics have come off! i need a day without rain to fix it. it seems to have rained since my babys birthday- seems fitting weather to how i feel anyway.

Can't quite believe how close this babys birth is to my last babys aniversary, there is only 1 exact week till i have the stitch out i am not ready!
Also my last babys funeral was on the 6th june 05 so i am desperate to get past that date before this baby is born which means i have to go a whole week after the stitch is taken out. i def don't want baby to come on 06/06/06, mainly because as thats a year since the funeral and also because i have had alot of bad luck surrounding 6's in my life, superstcious maybe but i lived at number 66 on the 6th floor when my baby died too.
so if i manage to get out of hospital after the stitch is taken out i will be on bedrest and annoying you guys all day.

arabica- glad the MRI went ok, hope the results come soon.

DHW- thinking about you today hun, let us know how you are/ how babys birth goes - if you want to, just letting you know were here xxxxxx

Slink - sorry the rain has caused havoc for yr memorial, and I for one hope you get past a week after stitch removal.

Oh slink sweetheart, dates are an awful thing arent' they. Dd2 was due 7 days after the due date of my first miscarriage so I do understand. However if your baby had lived or if she's watching you now she would not wish you to dwell on her death but would rather you looked forward to the coming of your next little one. Hope I don't sound too full of melodrama but am full of hormones so pleeease forgive me if I do. .

Instead of dwelling on the rain now, think about the sunshine to come honey. (that and the possibility of more stitches ).

Slink, thinking of you hun. My baby is due (by my records and why won't anyone listen!) the day before i had my m/c so getting a bit uptight about it. And its also the day my dh's sis died at 27y.o and his uncle died so hoping this will be one good thing to happen.

Does anyone know if its normal for baby to drop at 29 weeks? By hosp date am 30 weeks this Fri but he has dropped right down and getting nervous. Have a strong feeling he will arrive early, just have no idea how early! On the bright side, the pain has gone and i can breathe! Feels odd being able to actually do things without wincing in pain.

Mine's changed position SnowBoo--it's breach at the moment but at 27wks it was head down. So I guess they do still move around quite a bit at this stage.
Still haven't heard from hospital with scan results BTW.

omg you never guess what have just realised im related in quite a close way to one of big brother contestants! won't say who as would be a bit stupid as the papers are already digging up dirt on her and my brothers.
she is my stepbrothers half sister

wills bless you hun for feeling hormonal, thankyou for your lovely words. hope you are not too tired and are recovering well xxxx

snowboo- so babys dd will be aniversary, although looks like baby wants to come early. my midwife did comment on how low baby was etc and asked me if i was ok walking around etc. this was around 27 weeks i think- since then though baby is not engaged when i go for my appointments. So don't know whether it means anything or not, although you must be feeling some pressure/cervix pain with baby pressing down so low- glad you can now breath though :)
i found an american IC forum - tis all american so has differernt medical advice but has answered some of my questions about cerclage etc. will link it if your interested:) some women have had 5 cerclage babys so theres hope for me to have another:)

Oh if you could give me the link. Am getting really uptight now, and to make things worse dh is away next weekend at his mates stag do. IN SPAIN!!!! He has promised if needs be he will get an earlier flight home and do everything in his power to make me comfy before he goes. (Think he's panicking too now )

hope that worked:)

Ta for that Slink. Will have a lookie tonight in the comfort of my home. Don't want the men here to have a look!

i know what you mean about dh gooing to spain- i told mine that he can only go out on friday if he's back early and only has 2 pints, as i need him sober just in case lol

Yeah so i'm not very happy. And to top it off we have just found out his work partners have stitched my Mat pay and me right up. They've got my payslips saying i've earned nothing when i have. Bastards.

oh no snowboo how can they do that? is there anything you can do about that? what B*S!

i have crazy pressure today in my bum and nethers, its really heavy. gonna have to take pain killers soon for it i reckon- wish i didn't have to cook dinner tonight grrrr

I liked your link, Slink (hey, am a poet) and just tried to see if they had a group for mums expecting babies with ventriculomegaly, but couldn't find anything.
Still no call from hospital so I am going to have to ring them myself, I really don't want to because a part of me feels the reason they have not been in touch is that they are going to send me out an appointment because what they have to report is too devastating to be told on the phone (call me paranoid).

Arabica, try and stay positive. Easier said than done i know but no news is (hopefully) good news?

Slink, pain down there. Yep. Am getting it now. Seems to have gone from one place to another! And everytime he kicks it makes me jump. Sure people at work think i'm a nutter.

slink - how exciting, almost stitch time. I've got it on my calender just so i don't forget. Hope they do let you out and you can chat all day long.
Can't believe your pot is coming apart, can't you stick it in the house?
Bet i can guess which housemate on BB you are realted to!

Arabica - any news?? i think if it were anything serious you would have heard by now, they wouldn't waste time with letters.

well i thought my DH was travelling a long way, he was 4 hours away on Tuesday, that got me panicing enough, i couldn't cope with him being in spain, not now i'm 38 wks.

No news, consultant not at the hospital today, & no other consultants around that can do MRI results, so definitely will not be getting a call today.

hiya all:)
arabica- hopefully you'll get a call tommorrow then, seems a bit off you having to chase this up, it must be driving you crazy.

diddlingdoodle - happy 38 weeks:) its kinda anytime for us now as theres a good chance my baby will come a tad early i wonder who will be first? or maybe we will have baby on the same day i am going to try my best to not have the baby until the 7th june then i am going to get up and around and bounce on my new birthing/gym ball.
i reckon you could guess which BB housemate it is too lol
I am going to glue my pot back together in a mo as for the first time in a week its not raining can't really bring it inside as is a magnolia tree which is an outsidey kinda tree, it would be in garden if i had one, so pot on balcony will have to do.

Diddle - good luck

Arabica - I don't suppose it helps but on the whole in the medical profession bad news is delivered fast whilst good news takes a long time. Why this is so is beyond me. It took ages for our consultant to tell us the news about dh's last lump because it was relatively good news but as I pointed out to him - how were we to know. Feel for you honey.
