Pumkin did you get your 20 wk scan sorted in the end?

BlackholesAndRevelations · 12/08/2013 20:09

Anda- will you ideally go past 38? Or do you want/need them out sooner? I know nothing about twins but am reeeeally excited for you!

Lieslvontrapp · 12/08/2013 20:21

Ops forgot to remove someone that had to leave us. Sad to do.

GuffSmuggler · 12/08/2013 20:30

That's great news kat. These first few weeks of waiting are HORRENDOUS but I'm slowly slowly creeping along the weeks and you will too.

MotorcycleMama · 12/08/2013 20:40

liesl would you be able to add me to the list please?

1mmc; EDD 17th March 2014

andadietcoke · 12/08/2013 21:04

rainbow we watched the trailer for that at my NCT class - it looked lovely!

blackholes perinatal morbidity rates increase after 38+0 so I desperately want to have them before then. The guidelines recommend between 37 and 38 weeks so that's what I'm going to fight for tomorrow. I really hate confrontation so I'm really not looking forward to it (and I woke up this morning with pre-scan doom)

IBelieveInPink · 12/08/2013 21:15

Omg diet - does that mean you are going to be having your babies.... Next week?! Eeeeek!

SaggyOldClothCatPuss · 12/08/2013 21:16

Christine, it is butter, sugar milk and vanilla essence. The James Martin recipe. Check your store cupboard! Wink

andadietcoke · 12/08/2013 21:23

ibip 38w is two weeks tomorrow, so yes, hopefully in the next two weeks. Terrified. Was having lower back pain and lower stomach pain that was coming and going earlier tonight and I just sat there thinking 'I'm not ready yet, I don't have a birth plan, and I don't know whether I'm have an ELCS or not'!!

SaggyOldClothCatPuss · 12/08/2013 21:24

Thunder isn't on that list.

IBelieveInPink · 12/08/2013 21:38

Wow. That's amazing. You will have much more clarity tomorrow. At least then you will have something to focus on. The end is very much in sight!

Lieslvontrapp · 12/08/2013 21:44

Aw Anda, hugs for the scan doom... Hopefully they'll honour your wishes. Can't think of any reason why they wouldn't. Best get writing that birth plan! Wink Flowers x

Thundercatsarego · 12/08/2013 21:59

Hello everyone

Welcome kjh and congratulations. And fantastic scan news today- brilliant! Not sure about fudge or knowing exactly what I want- mostly I find I'm eating about 12 times a day otherwise I get really nauseous and I'm not really enjoying any of the food! What a waste of eating!

Is it ok for me not to be on the list at the moment? Not ready yet....

RainbowConnections · 12/08/2013 22:08

Oh Anda how exciting. I had completely missed that you were 36 weeks when posting from your holiday. Its a busy thread, takes a while to see where everyone is at. I think its good you're at home now!
I hope you get lots of support with your plans tomorrow.

BumpKitty · 12/08/2013 22:16

of course it is thunder, anda wasn't on the list for ages and look at her now, almost having her babies Grin

anda I'm sure you will surprise yourself with how assertive you can be when it comes to your babies and if they do decide to come before you have a birth plan you will be fine. Do you think they are still in the same positions?

off to google fudge recipe now though I haven't had much success in the past so I may just go to Thorntons tomorrow :)

SaggyOldClothCatPuss · 12/08/2013 22:22

Sorry matey, I thought your absence was just an oversight!

BlackholesAndRevelations · 12/08/2013 22:24

I'm not on there either... Never quite brave enough!

JanieLovesLuckySocks · 12/08/2013 22:25

Ooh lots if good news here today!

Oh anda so close! I can't see why they would want to put you or your babies in any danger, Hope they agree to do the right thing.

All this talk of fudge and percy pig goodies made me NEED treats tonight. Decided peanut m&ms were the only thing, drive to 3 shops and none had any :( couldn't make my mind up and so got a snickers and maltesers and a flump thinking I'd have just one if the choccy treats. Who was I kidding...hoovered the lot oops.

Thundercatsarego · 12/08/2013 22:26

Oh no saggy it was me being a pussy laying low as I'm still scared witless. I used to be a pretty cheerful, robust person I thought...honest. Thank you for sticking up for me though my friend.

anda this has come around so quickly (for me at least), I can't believe it! Hope the chat goes well and you feel pleased with the outcome.

andadietcoke · 12/08/2013 22:37

thunder I only went on the list at 32w! blackholes though, you've got no excuse - you were supposed to go on when I did Wink

It's funny. It hasn't gone quickly for me at all, but when I think about pentagon and lucky in their third trimesters I can't believe their pregnancies have gone so quickly.

I'm really hoping I won't have to argue tomorrow, but yes, am definitely prepared to. There's no cost implication in me having the babies by 38+0 and it's clinically indicated so hopefully it will be fine - hopefully I'm just being pessimistic. I remember making tomorrow's appt and thinking it was ridiculous because I wouldn't get this far - I was convinced they'd be really premature.

Will let you know how it goes tomorrow.

GardenWorm · 12/08/2013 22:42

Ooh Anda lower back pain? I predict you won't need to worry about fighting your corner as a certain couple of girlies are very fiesty and know that they want to come out soon....eeek! (Sorry, don't mean to panic you my lovely Smile) xxx

SaggyOldClothCatPuss · 12/08/2013 22:46

Anda I think your PG has gone quickly. We were on the September bus together until my MC! Its hard to imagine that mine would have been due too!
I bet Ethel and Mabel put in an appearance real soon! Backache sounds really promising!

andadietcoke · 12/08/2013 22:55

saggy I know. I understand. I was the same at the beginning of July, even though I was pregnant. In the end it came and went without meltdown incident, and I've finally stopped stalking the 'due in July 2013' ladies. I'm so glad that you and ibip and jmf are here, and hopefully the others will be back soon.

I really hope you're all right about the back ache! Could really do with having a mode of delivery plan first though Smile

SaggyOldClothCatPuss · 12/08/2013 22:59

Birth plans are over rated! Things never go to plan anyway! Just go with the flow! Grin
Try climbing the stairs sideways. It helps to open the pelvis and get the first head well and truly down.
