Pinkin ~ good luck for Monday, hopefully your ob will take a peek for you. I will be stalking x
Well im not having a great day today, the vet specialist phoned today with the results about Niamh and they have confirmed she has canine lupus and she has the more severe/very rare lupus which attacks her internal organs. It is already attacking her own nose and vet says she has anemia and the lupus is already in her bone marrow :(
We have an appt on 22nd straight after our gender scan to see where we go next, it can be treated but cant be cured.
I dont know how much bad news i can cope with in one day :( so hope i hear girl at scan x
Happylea--I amso sorry about your dog. That is such sad news. I hope the treatments help her. Is your scan today?
TTC5, I love how you told your kids!! :)
I hope you are right!! :DS:Quote:

Hobbers, I still can't wait for the moment when you hold your baby :DS: in your arms! It's going to be so magical, when you meet your babe, and he's a blue one!
Bumblebee, I am still overjoyed that you get to end your family with a :DS: Boys are such huge blessings, and I truly believe it's great for the kids to have a mix gender sibling, if possible!
Pinkin, I hope you hear girl on Monday, but it's still super early, so the OB may not tell you anything. FX tho!
HappyLea, sorry about your dog :( When is the scan taking place?
I hate admitting this, but since i found out DD is on her way, I have really, really come to bond deeper with DS2. He was my GD baby, and although I loved him and took care of him well, I always held back a little bit, and now he's one years old, and getting so funny and so cute, I am totally, oozing in love with him! He has some hair growing on the very top of his hair and it's sticking up, looks so silly. Plus, he's getting a lot more fun to play with!
DS1 and I have always been tight, but I am appreicating him in new ways too. I am just so excited to be giving these boys a sister!! It is amazing.
I got my screening results back, and they were okay I guess--the risk for downs is 1:200, which is .5% chance. It is better than what they said at the 12 wk scan, which was 1:120. Has anyone had a risk like this? I am still kind of worried. They said the cut-off for "normal" is 1:270, so 1:200 isn't terrible, right? :nails: now I am kind of worried, even though the risk did go down from the first set of tests.
I was the same, my heart was racing and I had a bad belly ache and the diahrea all morning LOL!Quote:

I'm so excited for everyone that has scans coming up!!
Anyone else getting braxton hicks contractions? I am getting them already! O_O Definitely didn't expect it so early, but I've read that it's normal with subsequent pregnancies.
Yes!!! Last night they were soooo strong only thing that eased them was laying on my tummy in a warm bath.Quote:

Ladies, thank you all for your kind words about my doggy. My scan is on 22nd May, im counting down the days, but due to taking my dog staright to specialist straight after i wont be able to update you all straight away.
I will be back on later when DH at work so will catch up propperly on all posts x
I have been having them since 12 weeks. Each pregnancy I have had them earlier and earlier. It's normal!Quote:

Hobber, I know you would have wanted to see an even better result than you did. However, don't forget that even most women who get a positive down syndrome result according to the bloods turn out to have a healthy baby.
I guess I always remind myself that nothing is guaranteed throughout an entire pregnancy. When I was pg with DS1 a friend was due 1 month ahead of me, and then when she was 30weeks her baby suddenly died. They never found a cause, but it is always in the back of my mind that even when you appear to have a perfect baby, it can all be ripped away. I celebrate the milestones and u/s telling me everything is good, but I know that there are some things that are beyond my control. Hope that story is not too depressing for everyone.
Happy Mother's Day to all the other Aussie mums. (A bit longer to wait for everyone else!) I have had breakfast in bed and some very special gifts that my children made. I am keen to tell the boys that I am pg today, but I think DH wants to wait until I have seen the OB on the 21st. I have started to tell some people as my tummy is getting big I think they will be asking me very soon!
HappyLea, poor puppy. What a rotten thing to happen. I hope the treatment helps.
GL tomorrow Pinkin! You'll be just fine. Don't forget to breathe.
Thanks Peony... what a sad story about your friend! :(
Happy mother's day to you! It sounds like your family is treating you well!
Good luck tomorrow Pinkin!!
Hobber - that is 199/200 chance that the baby is fine. Sounds like pretty good odds to me!!
Hey ladies, I haven't really been around much the last couple of days. My twins turned 6 yesterday, and we spent the day at Niagara Falls, then today I had a big birthday party for them at our house, so I've been a little busy.
I just wanted to make sure I wished everyone a Happy Mother's Day tomorrow (or today depending on where in the world you are). I'm really hoping I get to sleep in tomorrow - that would be the best Mother's gift for me. My Mom's coming for a visit, which will be nice - it's wonderful to spend Mother's Day with my mom and my kids at the same time.
Mocha, how close are you to Niagra Falls? I have always wanted to go there. Happy birthday to your twins!! Happy mother's day!
Oooo Ooo I forget that you Aussies are a day ahead! LOL Me likey!Quote:

I CAN'T WAIT!!!!! :D
I can wait! LOL... I see my ob at 3.45pm IF i get in on time so I wont be home until pretty late.. And I hope she actually will do a scan for me.
I have had the worst tooth ache for 2 days seriously If I cant get in tomorrow I will be chopping me head off. My face is a little swollen on that side and OH THE PAIN I actually feel a bit better now i used some Bi Carb Soda with warm water and then I made it into a paste and rubbed it on my gum and tooth! That and some Panadol!! I hope I can get in, I have never had a tooth ache like it!
So how many hours sweetie?Quote:

Yeah they can fix it but no xray which may be hard for them to tell BUT It does look like I have a hole in my tooth.. So I have a fair idea which one it is.
