Wow! Serious! Did you tell them your high risk for preterm labor and they should do it sooner!
I need somersault opinions o this ... Totally unrelated to babies... But I'm pretty pissed off lol... So my neighbour complained to the property manager that I didn't know we had... We built our townhouse and it freehold and we own it so I don't know but anyways... She took pictures of my yard and sent them to him complaining about kids toys... We have two little tikes slides on our yard you know we uave kids they like slides... And then I keep ezras push car at the side of the house.... And we keep the recycling bin on the porch right now cause its easier for me right now... The property manager guy read the emails t DH and they were apparently really nasty she was calling us slobs and a million other things.... Anyhow is a recycling bin really a big deal? I don't know I don't even have time in my busy life to process that lol... And that's what bothers me is she knows ds2 is a lot to handle and to our face she's really nice but apparently she is ver two faced
So anyways this lady always let's her dog shit and piss in our backyard and never once did I complain... They cleaned it up like once a week so I whatevered it... She also walks her dog without a leash and he is always growling at my kids... So I did take it apon myself today and called animal control on her!
There has been a couple times maybe more than a couple times that the raccoon had ripped our garbage open and there's a huge mess... But its cleaned right away... When we notice it! Am I blind or nieve and really am a slob?
Oh gosh southern surely they can fit you in sooner that's an age to wait not even accounting for fact you may not be preggie then, surely you see someone else?
Wag sounds like a piece of work to me if your property is freehold dont see how you have property mangt anyway you'd know if you were paying for it so as your not makes no sense.... Lol glad you called the dog people ;-)
Took boys out without buggy and ds 2 completely in lazy mood and had to carry him about 3 miles ;-( feel awful and crampy now ;-(
Southern I hope your little boy can hang in there longer.
WAG what a nuisance with your neighbour, she doesn't seem to stop.
My DS1 just broke out with chicken pox and I don't know if I had it. Midwife is checking the blood for past infection, should know tomorrow. But again it's an extra thing to worry about.
Oh girls way poor you fx you've had it before thinking of you having to look after a poorly one my two are running me ragged at mo ;-s
Wag- wow what a piece of work! Sorry you have to deal with that.
Girlsway- good luck on your results, hope you don't get it!
So I was planning to call the cardiologist's office to see what I could do about being seen sooner but before I could my Perinatal office called and said the peri doc wanted me to be seen sooner. She actually made arrangements for a pediatric cardiologist to come to my peri's office on Monday to see me there. I'm relieved to be seen sooner but worried about why my doc is going through so much trouble to have me seen...
Oh and Fish take it easy! Put your feet up and drink plenty of fluids, hopefully the crampiness will ease
Southern I'm sure it's just because they know you are at a higher risk of delivering soon (which I hope you don't, at least not for a few more weeks) and want these appoints ASAP so they don't miss you altogether! Keep your chin up, thinking of you and take it easy. Try not to stress (easier said than done I know) and let us know how your appoint goes x x x
Salsa- The more I talked to DH about it I am thinking that may be the case too. I think they want to be sure I see the specialist before I go into labor.
I'm sure that's why southern even here on the nhs they saw me the next day when they thought she had calcification this is in the country where a six month wait to see a consultant is considered normal ;-s
Good luck when's you appt can dh go with you? Praying its a nothing xx
I'm back from hols and think i need another one :D. Had a catch up with how everyones doing.
Southern hope your little man stays put as long as possible. Must be a nightmare with all these appoinments too, big hugs x
Girlsway have you heard anything back yet? Hoping its nothing and your immune x
RE saving too, mine looks like a badly mowed patch of grass. I like to be "bald" down there but cant see anything now do just guess what i'm doing, not good. I do find a mirror helps tho.
Had a really great hol but suffered soo badly with hayfever and we went to a forest too but feeling slightly better now i'm back, just wish i was able to take something.
Maybe 2 TMI questions but does anyone suffer with thrush in pregnancy. I seem to get it every time and more than once too. Also when me and DH do manage to have sex, afterwards everything aches so much down there, its even painful to walk? Its really weird as i've never had it with the boys.
Lol nothing is tmi here. I've never had thrush. And sex is too painful on my hips so we can only to the spooning position but I feel bad because I'm sure DH is getting bored of that same old position.
Here is a pic of the pink white and grey blanket I crocheted Attachment 12089
I feel pretty bad on DH too at the min, i keep turing him down but theres so many reasons for me not to have sex at the min.
Thorz that blanket is lovely, people would pay a fourtune for a blanket like that. Have you ever thought about doing it professionally?

Heres the 3D pic of our little girl too, was so lovely to see her and people are saying she looks like DS1 already :)
Oh what a sweet pic she is smiling! You are lucky to get such a good shot! I'm the same way with always telling DH no for sex, I'm just never feeling good or fresh or excited for intimacy but when we do the spooning position I don't have to do anything, I know it's not exciting but it's better than nothing so he'll take what he can get.
I'm still a novice at crocheting so I can only do a handful of patterns and stitches, plus they take me a long time to do so its not anything I could do professionally. I only learned to crochet to keep me busy during bed rest while I was on strict bed rest with ds3
Thank you for your sweet comment about the blanket though
Thorz that is such a cute blanket careful we'll start placing orders ;-)
Daltag I had thrush at end of last two pregnancies the only times Ive ever had it ;-( oh I'd forgotten that joy to come!
I feel crampy after everything hot bath, sex, walking, carrying ds2 I am a physical wreck ;-(
Bump is below my ribs already seems kinda early any one else so low?
DLTAG- Welcome back! What a sweet pic, almost looks like she's smiling!
Thorz- Love the blanket too, are pink and grey the colors for the nursery? I think that color scheme is very cute and chic.
No action for my poor DH either as I'm not supposed to be having intercourse. He's used to it by now as this is pretty much always the case in my 3rd trimester.
...and since I'm bored I figured I take another bump pic. Here I am a few days shy of 30 weeks and up 40lbs eeeeek!

Yep the whole room will be white and grey with touches of pink! I am making EVERYTHING myself. So far I have the bumpers done and the sheets and a rug. I just finished the blanket (Afghan) and now I have the crib skirt to make and a toybox/bench to refinish and make a cushion to go on top so it is comfy to sit on. Then of course I need to address the decor on the walls, but for some reason that really intimidates me, I'm always afraid I will hang things up crooked or they will look dumb, so I don't ever do it. We have a traveling Medical student that will be renting her room for 2 weeks (extra $$ is always helpful) and then I can really start putting the whole thing together. I'm excited!
I love your bump Southern! I know it is hard to see the scale go up, but for gaining 40lbs you still look fabulous!
Does anyone feel mega moody and stressed? I have 2 boys and am this time expecting a girl, with my boys I loved being pregnant ! This time I'm so on edge constantly shouting and snapping at everyone, which leaves me feeling like such a bad mum!
Hey Mel snap ;-(
My boys are 2&3 thou so wonder if its that plus I already have sore back and pelvis which I haven't before ;-(
Me too Mel!!! I'm a grumpy mess and soooo much more moody this time round. I'm always yelling at the kids (well the 2 older ones anyway) my 1 yr old is a little darling angel who just always seems to go with the flow. Bless him. However my 3 and 4 yr old are hard work and I feel I'm forever fighting with them. Makes me sad. I hate grumping at them, but have no patience at the moment.
Thorz, gorgeous blanket! My mum crochets all my kids a special baby blanket (I'm no where near this clever) and so far all 3 love their blankets so much it's become a comforter. And they all sleep with it all cuddled up next to them every night. Super cute!
Southern, that's a gorgeous bump! You're looking fantastic!
I just did a major toy shop for my dd's 5th birthday, my ds2 birthday and started Xmas shopping!! There are big sales on at the moment and once
Bubs comes along and we start renovating there won't be much time to do these things!! DD birthday is in a few weeks so I feel great to have all that sorted. I'm absolutely exhausted so I'm off to bed! Night all x
Maybe carrying girls makes people moodier? I hope it's that as I'm worrying I'll never go bk to the way I use to be. It was my dream to have a girl but u wouldn't think so if u spent an hour with me! Not that I believe my scan I'm still worrying they got it wrong! I've got another scan on the 14th of July so hopefully I'll relax more after that!
Thorz love that blanket too, my mum knits blankets for me but I really think I'm going to give crocheting a go. How did u learn how to do it? Is it really hard to do?
Geez wait til ur boys Are 9!!!! he is by far my most difficult and he's my neurologically normal one! He is soooo disrespectful and never listens! No matter what I take away or ground him it doesn't seem to get better just worse! And I now just have a hard time being nice to him at all! I can't handle him! I'm at the point I want my mom to take him! She wouldn't but I can't deal with this much longer! I'm wondering if it's his "sperm donors" genes! He was a bad ass for the 18 days I knew him... Goes to show yu nature vs nurture! I am always screaming and yelling at him! I hate it! I don't want to be a constant bitch to him. But how can I be nice to him with how he acts? I've tried a million times to sit down and talk about his behavior and still nothing,... I know it could prob be that he gets the least attention but really there is not much I can do about that...
Anyways yes I am much more of a bitch this preg! With my other boys a was a bit ore sensitive and would be more emotional... This time I grew a backbone of steal lol
I've been extremely moody lately as well. Up until a couple of weeks ok I was my normal hormonal preggo self but it has definitely gotten worse recently. For me it is due partially to not sleeping, stress over the baby's health, and going crazy not being allowed to do much.
My 10 and 8 year old certainly have their moments where they are at each other but for the most part I've been very impressed with how much they are willing to help out. My eldest will even sometimes fix breakfast or lunch for the other 2 and they've taken on extra chores.
Thorz, the nursery sounds like it's going to be amazing when finished! Can't wait to see pics of the final product.
lucky you southern... i dont know where i went wrong with my eldest... but its issue after issue....
Crocheting is actually super easy and I learned how to do it off YouTube lol!
Hey he's is not all angel, trust me! He went through a horrible phase last year when he was 9 also. It was like he had suddenly turned into a teenager and thought he didn't need to listen or be respectful and sure ended up with quite a few groundings. I wouldn't say you "went wrong" as I think all kids go through phases like this (mine included). Hang in there and I'm sure he will start to turn a corner. I know it's tough though.Quote:

I would personally refuse vaccines unless their is an outbreak ... But that's my super paranoidness... I have to get rhogam every preg and it freaks me out
I'm going to get the adult pertessis vaccine after he's born... I will also be delaying his shots till at least 6 months... Ds3 just starting his vaccines in june I think I delayed them too long as I was a constant nervous wreck of him getting something... But for me I saw the whole vaccine or delay vaccine a lose lose situation for me and I really didnt want the what ifs
This pregnancy I am also moody and annoyed with everything. DH is always of energy which irritates me, he wants to do everything at once,he managed to get the whole house under the reconstruction and frankly I am loosing my cool. I can't find anything, cant use kitchen, everything is dusty and dirty. Just counting days down to holiday. 11 days to go.
Ok ladies I have to tell you a little story that happened yesterday. We are a spiritual family, and we pray a lot. As you know I prayed and prayed for a little girl but I also prayed that I would get the baby that was meant for us and that no matter the gender I would love that baby! Well you gals also know my story of how the name Macie Anne just came to me in a dream (sort of) I was sleeping and not even dreaming of a baby at all when all of the sudden I HEARD the name MACIE ANNE out loud and it made me sit straight up from my sleep. This was before I even went to my first gender scan. So when they told me boy, I was sad for a bit, but I moved on quickly getting my life ready for 4 sweet boys. However, I could not shake the feeling that something wasn't right and part of that was "why would I have had that experience with the name Macie if it really was a boy" (you have to remember I wasn't even looking at girl names, because we had had our girl name picked out for the last 10 years) anyhow, as you know later the baby ended up being a girl and then I understood why things just weren't sitting right with me when they said boy. So anyhow, then DH and I couldn't really agree on the name, I wanted Macie because of the spiritual experience I had with it. I truly felt that I was given or told that name, and my husband just chalked my experience up to a mom wanting a girl so bad and having normal dreams about it. I knew better. DH wanted to stick with the name Anessa which we have wanted for years. So for the last 7 weeks we have gone back and forth. Yesterday, he said, "Well we should finally decide on a name, you really like Macie, huh? I don't mind it, but we have been calling our little girl Anessa for years now, and I'm not sure I can switch." Then I explained to him again how I felt about my experience, and he responded, "well what does the name MEAN?" I told him I didn't know and I hadn't looked it up. He looked it up right there on his phone, looked up at me and said, "Macie is the perfect name, her name is Macie with out a doubt!" Then he read the meaning to me. The meaning of the name Macie comes from Matthew and it means "A gift from the LORD" we both got choked up and he now believes my experience with the name was real and not just in my head.
I have since looked up the meaning of Macie myself and have found a lot of different meanings for it but the majority of the websites say it comes from Matthew and means a gift from the lord, so that is the meaning we are going by.
Anyway sorry for the long post, It was just such an neat experience that I thought I would share it. I'm so excited for Macie Anne, my little gift from the lord, to make her debut in our family. Our family will finally be complete!!
Thorz that's an amazing story, it's a beautiful name and little Macie is a blessed girl.
Here is a 3D photo we had taken yesterday. She is still a girl:) and looks a lot like the boys when they were babies!! I have been looking at their baby photos ever since we got home yesterday.

Aw Thorz that was such a lovely story and its great that your name has such a special meaning.
Wow wanting she really does look just like your first son. Arnt the scans amazing, i loved every min of mine :D
I have to have the whooping cough jab next tue and i'm really dreading it, i hate needles and injections. I really hope DH can take an hour out of work to be there with me :( There has been an outbreak of whooping cough in the UK, thats why they are giving it out to expectant mums otherwise i'd be saying no thanks too.
What a sweet adorable and perfect pic of your little girl wanting! She looks just like her handsome brothers!!!
