Just want to wish everyone a happy christmas - i know how you feel uki , i keep thinking my symptoms have gone and it all over like last time but i have to keep reminding myself to not be so silly and im not even 6 weeks yet so my symptoms are not going to be in full force and i never really suffered any bad ones with my Ds either!! !!!!
Im having stomach ache on and off but that is normally appetently? but im also a little constipated so that dosnt help either!

Im going to chill out andd enjoyed the next few weeks and also telling dh family over christmas so that should be fun

Happy Christmas

Evening all,
You might not know me, but I was where you all are this time last year (22 wks pg after a m/c). The bump is now a very wriggly 8 month old. I know that I spent last Christmas with the m/c very much in my mind all the time and went through the whole pregnancy worrying about every ache and pain.

I just wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas and want to send good vibes for your pregnancies in the future.

Hi All
I hope everybody had a lovely Christmas.
I haven't been on here for ages and I have just spent the last hour or so catching up (I know it's late, but DD has a terrible cough and I keep having to check in on her anyway!)
Congratulations to all the newbies. I am now 18 + 5 weeks and glad to say everything is going well. I have my 2nd official scan (3rd including my early scan) on 17th January and I can't wait to see how much the little one has grown.

Happy New Year and best wishes for a great 2007!

Just a thought, but there is a stats thread here , I am a bit lost with what stage everyone is at and wondered if anyone would like to add their details so we can update the list?

hello all

wondering how you're all doing, plus getting a bit jumpy now about the birth and what this long-awaited baby will be like. wanted to let off steam to people who understand.

It seems like I've been pregnant for a million years - and with the previous pregnancy and miscarriage taken into account (I got pg the month after) I have been pg for nearly a year, since the start of Feb 2006. Now I'm at 33 weeks on Monday, the baby moves around a lot and this is comforting. The VBAC/Elective CS was worrying me, but I really feel ok about it now, thanks to you all, about going ahead with ECS. Another friend who was really committed to VBAC had 30 hours of labour then another CS, so this has decided me.

Now I'm worrying about how this baby will be, will it be ok? particularly as this has been such a long haul, I feel emotionally exhausted. autism and other learning difficulties really worry me. Partly my DS is a such a sweetie, it really seems impossible that I should be blessed with such good luck in having a lovely healthy child twice... totally irrational I know. But I'm sure you good ladies know, the Eeyore mentality is difficult to avoid post-mc.

anyway, it helps to off-load. will do some gardening now (lovely sunny morning here) and try to think of some cheer-up activities. hope you are all doing ok XXXXx

Had a bit of a bleed on Thursday, not much but enough to panic me , went straight to doctor and he has gotten me in for a scan on Wednesday. My boobs still hurt which is good! I have read somewhere here that Cervical erosion can cause bleeding in Pg i know i have this as my nurse picked up on it in October for my smear so fingers crossed for me ladies! xx

How are the rest of you doing??

time4tea · 31/12/2006 18:43

doing better today, we took DS to the London Aquarium and he had a great time stroking the ray fish and laughing his head off. For a while I was sitting at the other side of the room and could still hear him! his laugh fills a room.

getting through all sorts of odds and ends tasks as well - my mum thinks the jitters is the nesting instinct. Can't ever see me cleaning the tops of cupboards etc.

how is everyone else? we're having a quiet night in tonight - schlepping off to parties just doesn't appeal right now, I am round like a beachball.

take care and wishing you all luck, love and bouncing beanies in 2007 XXXXXXXXXXXXX

Firstar- Hi, 3rd scan you lucky thing. i think you can officially start to relax.

Timefortea- You and baby will be fine, don't worry about the birth I'm sure the docs will advise and do what's best anyway.

I have one more week till 1st scan on 8th Jan, I'm going to be sooo nervous, i hope i survive.

pinkranger · 01/01/2007 13:09

HI Everyone,

Not been on for a while been very busy with xmas and New Year. The scan on the 22nd went well we saw the little one and a heart beat I couldn't stop crying throughout the scan luckily had a very nice consultant who was very understanding. It made our Christmas I am feeling more relaxed now but still waiting for 12 week scan and don't think I will really begin to enjoy this pregnancy until I can feel him (or her) wriggling around.

Pink _ I will be thinking of you on Wednesday

Hope everyone else is doing well.

Good luck for scan tomorrow firststar, how great that DH will see it!
I know what you mean about crying at scans stretchmarks, I thought I was OK until I tried to talk and my voice cracked and then the floods erupted!
Uki and pinkranger - good luck for scans this week, how exciting! Fingers crossed for you both.
Good luck for a safe and healthy birth time4tea. Not long to go now and the longer beanie's in there the better! Tell us more about the kicking, I can't wait until mine starts!
We've had the OK from our CVS, little lentil isn't a carrier (woohoo!) and we're all ok. Found out sex too but not told DH yet, so will tell you next time!
Good luck to everyone else and happy new year! May 2007 be filled with beautiful bouncing babies for us all!

great to hear good news with tests all round, and scans too! so exciting and its amazing how relieved I feel for you all (and I'm sure you feel the same way - one for all and all for one, like the Musketeers). I blubbed before, during and after scans in the early days (howled loudly in the ladies after the 7 week scan).

I'm finding it amazing that no-one else - particularly midwives, GPs, obst. team at the hosp. - has any idea how difficult pregnancies are for women in our situation. I mentioned once that it had been an emotionally stressful pregnancy and got an 'oh, really?' response from the GP. I don't know what I'd have done without MN.

love to all, and good luck for today's scan First Star - hoping for good news soon from Tickle.

Hello everyone and Happy New Year! Hope that all is well - lovely news for you firststar and 3 flights. And T4T - glad all is going well, and you've got things a bit settled.
I've got another scan next week to see if the placenta has moved a bit - not looking forward to it that much, though not dreading it like the last two. Other than that life is good, and our house is finally warm! And we have an oven! Just took 6 months...
Hope everyone keeps safe and well, fingers firmly crossed particularly for early people.

time4tea · 03/01/2007 15:02

great to hear from you Little Frog. Wondered how you are - feeling OK? you sound chipper!

much love T4T

pinkranger · 03/01/2007 18:34

Hi eveyone
Well, wnet for my scan today and Yipeeeee, we have a little bean with a Heartbeat, dated excatly 7 weeks today so my caculations were correct!!

The lady who scaned us was great and like you strechmarks, i creid and snoted everywhere, i know that with my missed baby died a 6+5 so already i have gone pass that bit, still going to have antorre scan at around 9-10 weeks i think for reasurrance (for me) - They couldnt see where the bleed had come from as eveything seems normal!

i know i will still worry but at least i have come this far!

One quick question - is anyone still getting belly aches that come and go, feel a bit like period aches and wind??

Thank you all
xxxx

stretchmarks · 03/01/2007 20:13

HI Pink,

So pleased to hear your scan went well. That's fantastic news. So you must be due about 2 weeks after me I am due on the 4th August.
