Just as I was beginning to relax...

Post by Zed2003 »

Hi girls,

And just as I was beginning to relax about this pregnancy lark, some old blood decided to appear last night and today. I know these things are sent to test us, but could do without it.

Anyway, baby boy is fine, but cervix is irritated and could have ectropian? (sorry, spelling?) If so, this may come and go and I've not to panic (hah). He's also in breech ( which explains the kicking of places where the sun don't shine!!), but I know there's plenty of time for him to turn yet. Typical that this has happened the first day due back at work after the holidays, and on my last week...Just have to get through this week and try to take it easy... :?

Hope you all had a good Christmas and New Year. Can't wait for all these babies to arrive :D

Zoe,

I am glad that things was ok for you, the thing is when you see the blood it does panic you, I was exactly the same, I bled uptil 18wks of my pregnancy on and off.
Take Care.
Love

Thanks Shell. Panic seems to be part and parcel of all this, but I had hoped that when I stopped bleeding at 14 weeks, that was going to be it. I can't believe we are all so far on now, it seems like only yesterday I was wishing I would get through 12 weeks!
You take care too, won't be long...

I'm sure the panic is just getting us ready for being a mom at the end of the day. I have just looked at can't believe how many weeks you are now, it just seems to be flying by for all of us.
Great though.
Are you all ready? or getting sorted now?
Love
Shell.

You and me both about the time, Shell :shock: !

Ready - no chance. Keep thinking it's unlucky and still too scared to do or buy anything. I teach and finish up on Friday and the kids have been warned about buying things, but some of the seniors work in Gap and are determind he'll be trendy!

On saying that, have decided on a pram. My sister had her baby 5 weeks ago and has a fantastic pram where the car seat goes completely flat too -great for long journeys which we do when we travel North.

Oh, we decided finally on the name today too - going to the hospital cemented it for some reason. It was going to be Sam (Samuel) or Fin (Finley), but have decided on Sam. Seeing my new nephew makes me long to see what ours looks like. It's funny, but after today I just want him to be born now, my illusions of enjoying this pregnancy are well and truly over which I am quite gutted about. I feel quite guilty saying it, but I just want him born now safe and well.

I supposed I should think about getting vaguely organised - I will after next week. He looked so big on the scan today, but it's still bizarre to think he's inside me. I been having major Braxton Hicks for 2 weeks now, very regularly too and they've been very uncomfortable - I want to bury my head in the sand a little longer re: labour, but the BH's keeping reminding me of things to come!!! Mind you, like us all, I wouldn't change it for the world.

Anyway, enough waffle from me. You must be well and truly organised? Do you still have your scan on Friday? Are you on major countdown alert? It's soooooooo exciting! :D

Hi Zoe

Just wishing you luck for everything I know exactly what you mean about just starting to relax and something comes out of the wood work to worry you. I have just had my second threatened miscarriage and I just want to relax and enjoy being PG.

Sam is a lovely name. Good choice. I got given a baby names book for xmas and we are still deciding. We have got a fair way to go still. It is due in June.

Hope your last day on Friday goes well.

Love Dagny x

Hi Dagny,
Sorry to hear you are to having not so great a time. Just think of the little fighter you have in there though - he/she is hanging on in there. I can totally sympathise as 3 times I thought I had miscarried this cycle, but fortunately the bleed was due to other factors. It's amazing, but you do relax in between the panics, but you don't think you do until you realise how het up you get the next time something worries you! Ah, the things we go through.....
Take care of yourself anyway.
