Sorry no personals. My head hurts and i'm so tired the kind of tired where you just look mierable because it takes too much effort to smile.... laid turf in the back garden yesterday and rolls of that stuff are heavy! Then worked last night. Got up at 8 a.m and finished laying the turf. Having a 5 minute tea break then off to clean my car inside and out working tonight then off to Bristol tomorrow 1.5-2 hour drive so four hours driving zzzzzz.....
Can't not go though as it's my sisters birthday. Just so shattered.
Hope everyone else is having a more enjoyable weekend!
Auroara, I agree with you and don't think your crazy for having kids. Live your life like you planned to as your right Cancer doesn't have to be a life sentance. Sorry to hear about ur Cousin, life is so unfair. A workmate of mine is terminally ill, so sad. She's late 40's.
Lavender, what a busy 24hrs u have had and more to come!! Enjoy the party!! x
Hi to everyone else, feeling lousy today, think I have a sinus infection....painful and feeling sicky. :( Was supposed to go out with Dh to a 'family' thing, but don't think I'll make it. Is a 2hr drive to where we were going. I'll be cursed for not making an effort by certain members of the family.....past caring really!!!
Have a good day! x
Hi all
Lmw you sound like one strong lady! Sorry you had to go through all that so young.
Aurora - glad you got all clear. I did think I had a brain tumour / anerisum about two years back and had a MRI. Just thinking I had that possibility was hard enough. Can't imagine how you must have felt.
I think PDg should be legal over here but if you you already have one or two of the same sex or there would be a lot of boy only family's for religious reasons. I am not anti abortion - not sure if anyone watched it but there was documented on a few weeks back on ilegal abortions on sex grounds in the uk. I don't know how they can control that? If I got pg again, went private for a early cvs found it was a boy then asked my doc for a abortion as I couldn't cope with four kids how would he work out my true reasons? Not that I ever would but abortion is just such a fuzzy area. Abortion after birth is plain murder though. If baby was on life support with a poor chance of positive outcome then I personally think is ok to turn off life support as it's unfortunately something I know about. But a breathing child? What would they do??? How could you kill a newborn? Doctors are supposed to preserve quality of life. How is that within a doctors remit?
LMW, how did I miss ur post? You did have rough teenage years, but you are no doubt a better person today for it, with a better relationship with your mum. My dh was a bit of a troubled teen, his dad walked out aged 11, never to return. But he is the wonderful man and great dad today because of his experiences. x
Just checking in ladies, hope you are all doing well :HH:
TLM hope the sickness clears up soon
charlie- hope you are having a good weekend and enjoying your boys.
Lavender- hope you feel better soon ((hugs))
LMW- wow, what a story, I agree with the others though, it has made you into a better person no doubt and I'm sure you are far more wise and sensitive than most people your age.
Aurora- thank goodness you have the all clear, I'm shocked people can have opinions about whether you have children or not, it is up to you completely and you have to live your life and not live in fear and with 'what ifs'.
babymad- how are you doing these days hon?
Pinga- I have been trying to cling on to what you wrote about being thankful and focussing on what I DO have rather than what I don't, it has been helping a bit. Hope you are doing OK too.
sunset, maybebaby, petal, maybepink, inglwood all you lovely ladies :HH:
Hey guys!
Forgot to mention we had our 20 week scan this week, everything seems fine! Baby is growing nicely in there!
I have an anterior placenta apparently. Dp's mum came, she loved it!
Finally had my hair done today! No more grey lol
Hope your all having a good weekend! :)
kell - i have an anterior placenta this time too. i havent felt baby move yet which i think i did by now with the boys. Have you started to feel baby move yet? didnt you notice you had an anterior with your 12 weeks scan by looking at your ultrasound notes? or has it just recently moved into that position?
Lmw I have a note about feeling small movements but nothing substantial, the last 10 days I've been feeling loads! Dp can feel it as well, I've not noticed any significant differences in terms of when I felt movement.
If it was anterior at 12 weeks no one said anything and nothing is reflected in my notes, infact there's nothing in my notes after the 20 weeks scan either which seems a bit weird!
the only reason why i know i have an anterior is because i looked at my notes the sonographer filed in my maternity notes at the 12 weeks scan. it gives details about the nuchal fold and CRL and tells you what weeks and days you are. then says placenta: anterior.
she never mentioned anything to me so i only know by what she put on the notes.
hows the weather where everyone is?
Its snowing here in the NE (well it is near me, what about in stockton sunset?)
just starting to lay too so the boys will be hoping that they can get some sledging out of it. So different to what it was like a couple of days ago. it was warm enough to go out without a coat.
Lavender - how are you? how many DPO are you? any symptoms or anything as of yet? FX to a BFP!
My notes are rubbish I have barely anything from scans except pictures!
I'll speak to my midwife when I see her in April lol.
The weather is horrible! It rained all night and most of the day until about 2pm when it started snowing and has been ever since, it's suppose to carry on snowing most of the day but it's so wet there's no way it'll settle here.
It wa lovely here yesterday! Beautiful sunshine!
Maybebaby ~ MASSIVE good luck for tomorrow!!! I am so excited for you and can't wait to hear your baby news and see some pictures of your baby boy :) I'll be thinking of you tomorrow!! please do update us as soon as you can! xx

chocolate and kell ~ hello ladies :)
Indigoviolet, Pinga, Babymad, maybepink3 and Charlie, sending you all big hugs!!! i hope in time it will get easier for you all...
hello to everyone else!
i wouldnt say i worried as i bought a doppler and keep checking on baby with it ever now and then. does take a while to locate heartbeat but that most likely because of the placenta being in the way. I'm just curious about when ill actually start to feel something as when you google it some ppl say it didnt make a difference to a posterior and then ive read somewhere someone didnt feel anything untill about 24 weeks. i just carnt wait to feel something, just makes everything seem more real. i sometimes think i can feel something going on downthere but then relise its just wind! PMSL!!!!
Maybe good luck tomorrow hun :)
Can't wait to see your little man!! X
Maybebaby- wishing you loads of luck for tomorrow, I'm sure it will go smoothly for you. Can't wait to see little 'dave'! can't believe it is your time, it has been a long road. GOOD LUCK!!
Hello all,
Hectic weekend over sigh all went well besides the 5 wee stops on the way home from Bristol Potty training ds2 day 2. Only one actual wee but no accidents all day so all is good! Think he's got it but we had a week when he was 1 and half where he self potty trained and was dry. But he lost interest think it was more of a game for him than actaully learning to use the potty IYSWIM.
LMW and Sunset testing on Tuesday If my tests arrive on time only ordered them on Saturday. Not feeling pregnant just really tired so not that hopeful. What cycle day did everyone get their BFP with ds2 it was 2 days before a missed period.
Maybe massive good luck for tomorrow, you'll have a newborn eek!
Good luck for tomorrow Maybe!!! will be thinking of you, update asap hehe
Big hugs xx
Lavender mine was around 11dpo with ds2 but this pregnancy I let it till after my af was due as I didn't believe I could be pregnant, we only dtd once the whole month lol!
Have any of you been watching got to dance? I'm not normally one for those competition type shows but I love to watch dancing! A group of Irish dancers won it! I was do pleased I've honestly never been so impressed by Irish dancing ever! They made it really interesting to watch! Here's a vid YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.
I cried when they won lmao!
Thanks girls, don't know if I want to cry as it's my last day of being pg and all i have done is moan when I should have enjoyed every second, or be sick as I'm so scared :-(
Feel very emotional. I think I might text indigo and she can update you all depending on how things go.
Thank you all for supporting me this far,I'm sure without some of you I would have given up hope of this baby a long time ago. You are all very speacial ladies to me xxx
Maybebaby what time are you going tomorrow? i'm sure it will go great :) i hope you get to have an amazing birth experience and that Dave dont keep you waiting too long. just know we'll all be thinking of you tomorrow and cheer you on from afar! :) x
I think it differs.. with ds2 i didn't think there was much difference at all to a posterior placenta but with dd it really was a massive difference and took alot of the fun out of being pregnant.. but i guess it was a blessing in disguise as at least i never got woken up by baby kicking.
Lavenderlime good luck testing on tuesday :)
with ds1 i didn't test until a week after af was due, with ds2 i tested the day after af was due and with dd i tested early and got my bfp at 9dpo
Good luck tomorrow Maybe, your emotions are bound to be all over the place today. I can't wait to hear your good news!
Thanks girls. Dh has made up daves car seat, had a bath, my bf has phoned ( I was her birth partner) feel a lot better now. Deep breaths - I can do this x
Good luck maybe - you'll be great!
I've got an anterior placenta too. I prob started feeling bump at around 19 wks. Sunset - baby still manages to wake me up with side kicks!!! I find I just don't feel bub as much as my other pregnancies. Some kicks seem a lot softer... but bubba is getting stronger.
Went to my friends little girls 1st birthday party and found it harder than I thought. One of my close friends was there too and she told me that she thinks I'm having a girl this time. (I haven't told anyone). Sigh - she has 2 girls and knows I'd like a girl... just hard when people say things like that.
Right must bath my 2 little monsters...
Morning all!!
Maybe, sorry I didnt get on to wish you GL for today and you prob won't see this message till baby here now. But wishing you a fab easy labour and lots of lovely kisses and cuddles with baby. Can't wait to hear ur news...
I didn't have an anterior placenta, but didn't feel movement till nearer 20wks, even with 2!!
Pinga, So many people told me that with ds2 'must be a girl etc' and I was so convinced he was, so finding out he was a boy was tough at the birth. Think had I known, then I wouldn't of had such a hard fall finding out he was a boy when he was born. It must be very difficult to hear comments like that when you know differently, but I hope by knowing in the long run it's easier for you. That's why I had to find out the sex and tell people, as I couldn't have people saying 'girls' and either me not knowing till the birth again, thinking girls and having boys. Think the shock of 2 boys would of been harder to take for me. I too have spent years being a boy mum around girl/mixed families and it is so tough. hugs.. xx
Hi to everyone else, been so so tired, think I have sinus infection and feel like I should be giving birth now as I'm so big and heavy. Took me forever to walk the boys to school and it's literally a 2min walk!! Have a scan tom and hopefully get my date??? We have bets on when my date will be ds1 and my SIL say 11th April, Dh- 9th, ds2- 12th and I said 6th, but think I meant 16th?? Just need to know when their birthday will be :)
Sunset, no recent bump pics....massive now though! Will ask my camera man (ds1) to take 1 later.
Hello to everyone else, think I might go for a nap! whileI can still do that!! x
Lavender, how was your sister's party on sat? were u knackered after ur busy few days before it?
I had my SIL's new shop opening night, which went well. Was tired, but nice to make the effort and go.
Hope im not too late to wish you masses of luck Maybe!!!! Been manic over here and just logged on to see its all action at your end! Cant wait to see a pic of baby dave! Lots of love XXXXX
Lavender, good luck with the testing!
Hi everyone else, will get through the pages asap!
X
Hope all is going well Maybe, we need some newborn boy pics xx
Hi I am on delivery but not much going on. Baby is floating free and cervix clamped shut so they can't break my waters. Had a pessery and they think i will be ready to break waters tomorrow. Feel better now I'm here. So not ready to give birth. Feels weird being in a delivery room when not in labour. Midwives are being so lovely. Will let you know what happens if anything x
Thinking of you maybe! X
It's all so exciting :) hope things move along at a nice pace for you!
