Sunset, yay on the bp front! and she is so beautiful! what a cute picture!
LMW good luck today, i asked for a nub shot they didn't now what i was on about lol! don't be scared to ask! whats the worst the can say!
Just a quikie. Off to hospital as I have pre eclampsia again x
Sorry to hear that maybe, I'll be thinking of you x
oh maybe x sending you lots of love hope you and dave are all ok x much love x
Thinking of you maybe, let us know how you get on! x x
Maybe so sorry to hear that you have PE again, hope the meds get it under control. Thinking of you and Dave.
Interesting day this is turning into! About 2 hours ago I wasn't allowed out of bed or having the curtains around my bay closed or even top up my parking ticket. Doctors and midwives talking about me out of earshot etc. I was 167/109 but given bp meds and now it's 120/80! I am so pleased! Might get to go home yet! But it's finally dawned on me, this baby will be here soon!
Sunset - your high bp left you to stay with me it seems
oh maybebaby i'm so so sorry to hear you got PE again!! it truly is awful! i'll be thinking of you and praying everything goes ok! and even though i remember far too well how horrible it is to be in hospital at least you know it's the best place for you and dave right now. and when it's all over and you're holding your baby in your arms you know it will all be worth it regardless of how bad things may seem right now. sending you lots of hugs!! keep us posted! xx
glad the bp medicine keep it under control for now! and fx you get to go home :)Quote:

I had my midwife appointment today, it was so quick! And now have another 11 weeks till I see her again, just seems so long away. The heart beat definatly resembled galloping horses! Who knows maybe the old wives tale could be right! I sure hope so! :)
Feeling soooooo tried the last week but with Charlie being ill I've been up atleast 4 times a night, he's on the mend now but his sleep is outta wack :(
3 more sleeps till D-day! I'm getting nervous!
I had to defend gender desire this morning on another forum I post on, it's not a gd site just a normal mum and baby one, someone posted that they had discovered that gender selection in Greece only costs around 5000-6000 euros which they thought was very reasonable.
Another person pipes up with the usual we shouldn't be able to choose its against nature, what about the people who struggle to conceive or don't at all, they'd be great full for any gender.
I hate to say it but I did message back and gave my two cents worth, I hate that people are so negative about wanting one sex over another!
I must have put my point across quite well because soon lots of people were in agreement with me! Lol
It's so bad that we can't be honest without being ridiculed!
I'm glad your bp has come down maybebaby, hope it stays that way. Big hugs to you x
wow maybe bless you so glad it has come down!!! Hope it stays down AND i hope you are now signed off work x x Big love x x
LMW hope the scan went well x
Still looking promising to come home. Bp is now stable. Hospital is ok and everyone is being lovely.only thing is one lady has been here for six weeks and another for three! Makes me feel positively healthy!
Just been told I might be able to home tonight! Knowing my luck my waters will go on the way to the car....
Charlie if people want to do ivf as they can not conceive isn't that playing god too? Gods is alll powerful and therefore gave us choice. If I had 20k to loose I would do it in a flash
kell ~ good on you for sticking up for gender desire! :agree:
maybebaby ~ so pleased to hear you might be able to go home tonight! :) fx!
Littlemisswilko ~ how did the scan go?
Hi all, been such a busy couple of days this is the firs chance i've had on!
Maybe, so glad all looking better than this morning. Hope you get home tonight!
Kell, good for you for sticking up for gd! People should be able to do gender selection / ivf for whatever reasons suits them i believe. Its not like people doing it for gender purposes means less people can do it for fertiility reasons.
Sunset, little serena is just gorg!
Littlemiss, looking forward to update on scan!
AFM, just about sunk in that im pg! Been obsessing over the ph of my urine the last few days. Its as though now i neednt obsess over swaying, something else has taken its place! Anyway ph is heading towards boy zone and although Atomic and other ladies with far more scientific knowledge of mine have told me its a load of rubbish, it almost as if im trying to lessen the fall by believeing in it iykwim?!
Deaks we all have our own coping methods, mine is to completly ignore that it could be a boy, yours to look at ph etc Unfortunatly it's really a case of wait and see! You did a good sway the odds are in your favour in those terms!
Do you think you will find out what your having? Or stay team green?
Maybe Deaks both valid points, so far there's been no comeback from what I've said and tbh I don't think anyone is in a position to judge, especially this person who has one of each sex!
It's snowing again! Looks like we're in for another full night of it.
Lmw hope everything's ok? How did you get on with your scan?
First of all AAAARRGGHHH sick of being so busy I cant get on here, missed you ladies, finally finally it seems we have gotten over the coughs and colds although DH is still really coughing and DD is still waking up loads at night !Quote:

Mad I know!!
I did get rid of all my maternity but not my baby clothes xx
I would love to stay team green and before i got my bfp thought i might manage it. But the not knowing is already driving me crazy so id i imagine i will cave! you?Quote:

WAVES 3LM yay for maybe more babies :D
i have an intelligender!!! I will post the pic tomorrow oh and tell the snow to DO ONE i want to go get my car tomorrow x
http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n...ODQ2LmpwZw.jpg
could it be ANYMORE boy.....i think not lol
yellow for girl x it is so just your FMU PH and mine is very high PH at the mo - never tested it before getting pregnant though........think it was about 8 last time i checked
Charlie isn't that only for early pregnancy? Before 8 weeks I thought?
testing ph using fmu is supposedly only reliable before 8 weeks but for some reason intelligender states otherwise and you can test more or less whenever..Quote:

threelittlemen ~ wow what great news!!!! i would love to have a big family one day too :)
maybebaby ~ how did it go last night? did you get to go home? how are you feeling today?
littlemisswilko ~ hope you're ok!
hiya girls! just to let you know the3 scan went well. baby is fine and was moving around loads!
took the lady ages to be able to measure the fluid behind the neck as it wouldnt stay still. she then stopped and told me to thrust my bum up and down as this can move the baby upwards. so embarressing. didnt see nub at all as bubs wouldnt stay still so didnt get a good look. will post a pic when i can!
Told ds1 yesturday and he's so excited. first thing he said this morning was has the baby grown more and is it kicking bless him and how many sleeps till baby is here.
i bought one of those intelligender test when i was pg with ds2 and it was right for me. i think i was around 15 - 16 weeks pregnant when i did mine as i couldnt wait untill the scan and didnt know you could actually go for an early gender scan.
where did you get yours charlie? i had to buy mine from America but saw someone on ebay who was in the uk selling them a while back
Glad everything went well at your scan LMW. How cute of your ds1 asking if the baby has grown etc. My ds1 had to come to my 12wk scan has had no babysitters and after the scan shouted infront of everyone in the waiting room that he hated me, dp and didn't want a baby!
x
ahhh hope your ds comes round to the idea. we had sort of planted a seed in ds's head as we kept asking him if he wanted to have a baby and what would he want, a brother or a sister, and he always said yea he wanted to have a sister so i knew he was going to be okay about it all.
LMW - so glad the scan went well hun! Funny you have to thrust your bum in the air!!
Charlie - i dont think i would worry too much about the intelligender. Have been doing masses of research into these things the last day or so (obsessive!!!) and there really are as many false outcomes as true ones! Apparently the intelligender is based more on just ph of urine (some kind of chemical reaction apparently) but they still use urine ph as part of their testing so if you have changed your diet drastically (im assuming it was boyish before swaying and so has probably gone back to being boyish since) then it wont give an accurate reading for you compared with someone who's diet hasnt changed much throughout iykwim? anyway, i just wouldnt worry!
Just to let you know that nini got her bfp too and is due the same day as me 17-10-12! just thought id let you know as she cant get on here much to keep up!
HI all!
Been AWOL for a few days, felt rotten and lightheaded yest and today and just rubbish! Dh and ds1 have the cold/man flu...so guessing that's what's coming my way!! :(
My scan was great, no pics sadly as the sonographer that havs done the past 3 scans says the hosp policy is no pics after 20wks!! Crap! I got a pic at 22wks, she just obviously doesn't want to waste money. Dh managed to come and it was nice, she is a nice sonographer despite the pic issue and always spends alot of time showing us stuff and explaining what things are etc.... she always asks us if we want know what their gender is? or if we know? she checks as she must forget she tells us each week...NO complaints here! Got good sized babies too.... Twin 1 is 2lbs 10oz and twin 2 is 2lbs 11oz!!! ds2 calls then cheeky (kicks me constantly) and chunky (bigger twin) Still 8wks to go! to get my section date on 21st feb!!
Charlie, I got SYTRON!! saw the registrar after my scan at the clinic and told her how painful my oesphageal spasms are on iron tabs and she gave me a script for sytron. 'touch wood' so far better!! not 100% better, but better! Was going to ask her about it when she mentioned it to me! Try not worry about the urine test, I don't think they are all that accurate, my urinary Ph barely changes pg or not! Will u find out the gender at ut 20wk scan?
Deaks, still so chuffed for u!!
Z, sorry to hear ur poorly!! Is it a cold? or pg related?
Maybe, hope that's u off work now? take it easy mama, not long!!
Lavender, hope ur Gp gets to the bottom of why ur often unwell! Know it's winter, but to be ill as often!! and gets to the bottom of ur long cycle, prob due to being ill so often!
Babymad, hope ur ok and had a nice b'day? Loved the pic of u and the boys at F&B! gorg boys, ur 2 youngest are so alike!!
Past 2 days other than feeling tired have been filled with a broken washing machine....fixed today!! Yipee and a filling at the dentist :( Not much else. MY SIL gave dh a boot full of baby toys, clothes etc... and my SIL's bf gave me tons of nappies and bits and bobs she didn't use up, so feel so lucky once again that people are being so kind! Have alot of things now.
Sunset, she's ur double! She's doing so well and so cute.
LWM, glad u had a good scan! x
Kell, are u getting excited?
Off to tidy my bedroom, bit of a mess!! pop in later.... sorry if I missed anyone had about 7 pages to catch up on!!! xx
Hey everyone, missed 6 pages, wow!
Fab news nini is pg too :-)
My scan came through for next week, Tuesday, at 11 weeks so need to see if the nub can be seen then.
My 15 month old is ill with a sickness bug so not looking forward to getting that, also have an achy chesty cough like DS1, not a well household at the moment.
