UK SMOG Wannabes ~ December

[Inglewood]

It's after midnight, now monday, so can now offically say my scan is TOMORROW!!! Wish me luck trying to get some lol x

Good morning!!

Inglewood ~ Eek, not long now!!!! one more sleep are you excited?
If you didn't catch H,F mouth disease last time i don't think you need to worry. It's can only pass through the placenta if you don't have the antibodies and catch the actual disease yourself.. but mention it to your midwife just to certain and she might send you for a bloodtest to check for antibodies.
Thank you, I hope she will born healthy too.. everything that can be done while she's still in my uterus has been done so now it's just to wait for her to be born and after that she will get an appointment to see a specialist who will check her eyes and ears and when she's 7 months old she will have to have a bloodtest done to check for chicken pox antibodies which will confirm if she caught chicken pox in the womb or not. Everything is looking good so far, none of her internal organs have been damaged and she's growing as expected, but unfortunately there are things they can't see on a scan, like skin scarring, blindness and deafness, so yes it's definitely a worry! I try to stay positive and think that the odds of it happening is only 2% so I still have a 98% chance that she will born perfectly healthy

Lavenderlime ~ I'm so excited for your first attempt! hopefully you will be a one hit wonder, what a perfect christmas present that would be

AFM, I can so tell i'm in the 3rd trimester now.. I need to pee ALL THE TIME and the most horrendous heartburn! I was up for a wee 5 times last night in the space of 6 hours! and during these 6 hours i also woke up 3 times from painful heartburn. I was tempted to sleep sitting up! I'm going to the shops in a little while to stock up on Gaviscon to keep on the bedside table! I'm also making a mental note to remember this stage next time I get broody in the future!

I've also told you ladies that my ds2 has been poorly, well i looked in his mouth yesterday and it wasn't pretty poor boy! he has 2 back molars breaking through at once :/ better to get it over and done with I guess but there's no wonder he's being poorly and super sensitive at the moment

Sunset, I wrote 'santa' on mine! Also should we say when they arrive, so the person knows they got there ok???

I think it sounds like a good idea to say when they arrive! I will definitely tell on here when my present arrives so my secret santa knows it got here okay! you just never know at this time of the year if there's going to be postal delays or not.

Hi all, been struggling to keep up with smog last couple of days! The rash went from bad to worse so i started the antibiotics on saturday morning but just went to the docs as things getting worse not better and the one i saw today is 100% convinced it is psoriorsis (which i have had before as a teen) and that the anti b's are pointless. So i am off those and have to take a cream (vit d) at nighttime. He said it will just need to run its course and should go by 5-6 weeks. Nice! Anyway at least i dont have to worry about my sway! Mind you i expect that the reason i have got this is because i have been feeling stressed and run down and that the shaving and swimming pool was just the trigger!

Anyway enough of me me me...feel like i constantly go on about myself on here! How are all you ladies?

Inglewood, good luck tomorrow! cant wait!

All those with poorly little boys, this time of year is a nightmare for bugs and bacteria...hope they all improve soon.

Right im gonna go finish making my SS so i can get it in the post today...unless it goes wrong....eek! X

About the Secret Santa, I think if you want to say who it is from you can of course, or keep it a secret. When we did it with IG we wrote who it was from and when it arrived posted a piccy of their presents which was lovely for everyone to see. Up to you of course but I think it is good to say that it has arrived just to reassure your SS. It will be great fun! Can't wait for them to start arriving!

Feeling absolutely cr*p here, forgot how bad ms is, ugh. Ds2 just down for a nap now so will try and get a lie-down myself.

Homebirthing princess ~ welcome back! so glad you found us!! I'm doing fine thanks, it's starting to dawn on me now that i could have a baby in the next 2-4 weeks.. scary! aw i can only imagine how upsetting it must be that your SIL is using your girl name ((hugs)) but as you say soon you might have a little girl on your own

Indigoviolet ~ thought i would say thank you for suggesting the SS! i've really enjoyed picking and making my present!!
so sorry to hear you're not feeling well MS is horrible!!!!!

Deaks ~ I hope it clears up quickly for you!! my mum suffers with psoriorsis and it's really not nice at all great news though that you will still be able to attempt this month. Good luck! i've got my fx for you!

HUGE hugs hun my BF moved away before i ds3 i used to see her everyday as our boys went to preschool together and have known her since antenatal with ds1 i still miss her loads but we skype all the time and still meet up x i hope you can keep in touch x she is still definately my BF

Been Xmas shopping today and sorting out baby things for my hospital bag. I have over two bins bags of 0-6 m clothes! Gosh not going to miss them and hopefully will not hord it all this time but get rid as soon as it's outgrown! Sister has my pram too but still doesn't feel real.

My best friend moved 400 miles away this weekend. I am so sad:-( just when I have lots of time off work looming am I will lonely as I have seen her every week since ds2 was born. We met at a Nct bump and babes group so I hope I meet new friends with this baby.

Urg heartburn made me sick in my sleep last night! Yuk! I had to sleep sitting up in the end.
