Oh Rosie I'm so sorry to hear the news about your DH's job loss. I really hope you have family and friends you can lean on during this extremely difficult times. I would surely miss you as I look out for your posts and was in the earliest TTC groups with you since 2013. I'm sending you lots of positive vibes your way. It can only get better from here.
I came on here to look for an update on you rosie
You were the first to encourage me when I didn't think I would feel symptoms at 3dpo. Sure enough I was pregnant that month. I was heart broken when I learned of your losses. I'm so sorry you are going through such a trying time especially now that you are expecting your rainbow baby. You will most certainly be missed. I really hope to read a positive update on you if you choose to come back. All the hugs being sent to you.
Pretty sad around here. I wish the best for you Rosie and can't imagine that things won't turn up. Try relax- be strong- this will pass.
I am keeping this as my mantra as I support my mom through chemo/radiation, surgery and more chemo. This next year will be trying but amidst it all I just know that things will work out.

2 boys what a hard time for you, my thoughts are with you, your mom and your family. Your mantra sounds like a really good way to cope with a very difficult situation.
Rosie!! I can't believe you think we would forget you, we were TTC about the same time and I too was devasted to hear of your miscarriages and so happy to learn of this pregnancy. I'm sure something will work out for DH but it sounds like a very stressful time for you big hugs Xxxx
Oh no I'm so sorry to read this - I can't keep up with the support threads just happened to see this. Sending prayers and PT, please update us when you can.Quote:

Well I'm 34 weeks today and can't believe I'm in final few weeks before baby! From the sway to now seems really quick in a way and I still smile so much when I remember we have a little princess in the oven lol. My friends threw me a lite pink baby shower on Friday and gave me a lovely pink basket full of baby girl things, it made it all so real and I was so touched!
I'm back at hospital on Tuesday for a growth scan and looking like might need weekly scans if baby still measuring a bit small, Will know more after scan this week. I should have been getting scans regularly all along but thanks to an incompetent midwife my last one was ten weeks ago. I will be very upset if I go Tuesday and something is not right and I could have been weeks ago. Anyway roll on Tuesday till I see more.
Think we have everything ready for baby now except haven't built up pram, it's at my mums for superstitious reasons lol.
Are you all getting prepared? It's so much fun! Definitely enjoying it more this time as I know this is definitely my last!
Oh also have arranged a newborn baby shoot to get photos taken in first 14 days, can't wait!! Xxxx

KTF,
I also can't believe I'm in the last few weeks, I'm 35 werks, so just ahead of you. That's too bad about your midwife not being competent, I hope everything is ok with the measurements.
I have been fludding ds2's closet with borrowed girl clothes lol and actually making some as I like to sew, it's funny, ds2 who is 2 years old won't even let me hold anything that resembles a girl clothing item up to him so I can see if I'm making it correctly lol.
I went for another fetal ECG and they said that one artery was still slightly enlarged, but that it's still within normal limits. I will have to take her for an echocardiogram between birth and 3 weeks just to be sure everything is ok.
I still have so much organizing to do! If this baby comes early I'm totally not prepared!
And I'm still in an absolute panic just thinking about the labour, I'm so afraid it will come on ultra quick again and I will have to drive myself to the hospital and I'm so terrified I won't receive the epidural for whatever reason, I seriously need to calm down!
I'm carrying much smaller and I'm thinner this pregnancy, just have a basketball in the front, and people who guess what I having all say boy, so there goes that theory out the window, I never believed in that one anyway...
I'm excited to have another year off with this little one (in Canada we get a year paid maternity leave) not sure what other parts of the world get, although I know the USA is only about 7 weeks or so, that would make it so hard, especially for the breastfeeding.
Anyway I hope you are all doing well, I have a feeling I will be the first one on this thread to go into labour! I'll keep you guys posted ;)
Hi well had a growth scan today at 34+2 and baby only in 3rd centile so they are going to induce me by 37 weeks if not before [emoji54]. Had to have a steroid injection today and going back for another tomorrow, also being monitored and scanned twice weekly to keep close eye. Baby is however healthy even though small and as I'm passed 34 weeks they say all should be fine. Maternity leave been brought forward and watch this space ladies our little girl be here within three weeks eek lol!!

Very exciting to hear how close this group is getting to having babies! I hope we all have safe deliveries, healthy mama's and healthy babes!
It's amazing that other countries get so much paid maternity leave! I am jealous, US needs to take notes! There is no promised paid maternity leave here. It varies on your employer. I personally have never worked any where where they will pay you but I have some lucky friends that have.
I am 28 weeks today. Baby is very active all of the sudden, she must be taking up more room now. She is constantly dancing on my cervix. At the park today I had a panic moment where I literally thought her arm was in my vagina!
I'm a little sour thinking of how I'm already feeling done and thinking that I still have 12 weeks, give or take. Feeling big and getting hard to do everyday things, like bend over, and it will only get harder!
Best wishes and hoping things start to look up for everyone!
I got my c-section date today! Baby will be arriving on September 15, which is less than 4 weeks away! Yikes.
