June 2012 Babies

Hi again
I haven't been on here for a while - herewegoagain - I can relate to you. After 1 mc I guess I'm a bit worried until I know the blood tests and scan all come back OK. I'm booked in for the scan next Monday, then have an appointment with my specialist just before Christmas so I hope its good news.

Still have morning sickness - although its more like all day sickness so I hope its all for a good reason!

Weather here in Wellington has been crazy - so hot on Monday night so I couldn't sleep and today its been pouring with rain, misty and southerlies - like Winter time.

Bye for now - good to see everyone's good 1st trimester bloods/scan results! Well done

hayley, sorry you had such an awful wedding anniversary. Memorable but for the wrong reason. I hope you can get some answers about your DS, surely it can't be "just a virus" that's lasting this long. Have you got a different GP you can as for a 2nd opinion? And regarding the scan results, no news is good news. If it's a high risk result they phone and tell you. That's what my MW did.

Herewegoagain, glad to hear your scan went well and bub is fine.

capelbach, boo for DD getting sick now too. You are not having a good time at the moment. Hope they all recover in time for Xmas, or rather, so you can move without having sick kiddies!

BnT, glad to hear your scan was good too, and that bub looks fine.


Ajay, sorry the MW appt got postponed. I always hope that it doesn't happen, though I know it's for a perfectly valid reason of another mum being in labour, but you kind of get your hopes up about the MW appts, and hearing the heartbeat, etc. So always a bit of disappointment when it's postponed.

KiwiAtHeart, sorry to hear you've had the tummy bug too!

Lucylou, that is good service by your MW. Hope the pills help.

Kelz, yay for a good scan!

I had a phone call from the maternal fetal medicine clinic today. She basically said "so what test do you want me to book you in for". No mention of seeing the specialist beforehand to discuss things, just straight in with testing options. So I said we don't want to do any further testing. So that's pretty much that. They apparently don't need to see me unless I'm wanting to do testing. Which I guess is good, as there's not much else they can do yet. The anatomy scan will be presumably checked over for downs indicators, which won't be till mid Jan.

I forgot uti=antibiotics=thrush. Grrrh woke but last night with a burning who-who.

I think I'm starting to get the super in love feeling you get with your DH when your UTD. I just want to kiss him and touch him all the time and that's all I can do too hehe. I've even been dreaming about just kissing him lol. I guess that's because the whole of the 1st trimester every time he tried to kiss me I wouldn't coz I felt so sick.

Righto off to work now. Have a lovely day ladies

It's great to feel so happy again yay!!

Hi everyone I haven't been on in a while

12 weeks today yay did the toilet paper thing and in 11 squares I think thats what I was last time.

I just skim read the last few pages and saw Atiamuri is a physio?? My back is killing me already and I posted on Facebook and my friend who is a nurse said go to the doctor and get a referral to see a physio. What exactly would they do?? I am taking DD to the doctors in about 10mins but its not my normal doctor so am a bit nervous to ask her about it.

I will be back later to read a few pages back and catch up properly

Brrrrr..... cold in Wellington today, where is summer?

My daughters christmas concert was lovely, the children were soooooo cute! All singing away, brought a tear to my eye

Hope that you are all warmer than I am today!

Im with you on the eating all the pies Daynak, when i told my mum on Monday she said to me ' oh i was telling your father i thought you'd put on some weight in your tummy' I visited them on Saturday.
Dad being dad said 'dunno didn't really notice' lol

Haha Daynak, I know just what you mean about looking like you ate all the pies, so annoying. Tho, to be honest I have been eating more than my fair share of pies lately!

Ewwww pies!

Mmm. All this food talk is making me hungry and I've just finished tea! I've been going through a cheeseburger stage too but have recently discovered a kebab shop in town that cooks the meat on a grill (not the turny things) so I feel like it is safer to eat. I've been there every day for lunch for a week - I think the guy thinks I'm a bit weird!!!

Cute about the show LuRo. My 2 year old performed in the Tuwharetoa Festival a few months ago doing kapa haka. It was actually one of the first times I realised I was pregnant because I was crying before I got in the door and watching the other kids, let alone watching him!

Scan on Friday. Can't wait. Am feeling very uncertain about it. Tried to bring it forward last week but there were no appointments so have to wait (not so) patiently.

dneyn, boo on the thrush! I always get thrush or fungal skin infections after being on anti-biotics too. Are you taking a pro-biotic at all? Probably best to wait till you're finished the course of anti-b's, and then dose up big time on a good quality pro-biotic to replenish the good bacteria in your body.

capelbach, 5 weeks in the UK! Wow, that'll be a long holiday. Guess you need to, because of the distance. We haven't ventured back to the UK since we moved to NZ 4 years ago. Did say we'd try for every 2 years, but then had DD and went to one income, and haven't had the chance since. Not that any of DH's family have come to visit us either! (he's the Brit, I'm the kiwi.)

LuRo, glad your daughters concert went well. I find myself tearing up over things too. I'm not an emotional person, so preggy hormones catch me off guard a lot! Even reading a story to my DD about something sweet/cute/sad etc, will have me almost tearing up.

KiwiAtHeart, laughing (at the irony of it) at your mother's comment about you gaining weight before she found out you were pregnant. How did you react to that?

Love pies!! The bakery near our place does great pies.

My DD has her first day at kindy on Friday we're using a daycare instead of a kindy, but it's the first time she's been away from me, other than DH looking after her for a few hours. Not sure how we'll go, but hopefully she'll like it, and be ok without me.
