Hello everyone-
Had a few scary days in the hospital being monitored- BP spiked. I am off work now and BP is stabilized.
Babe had a growth ultrasound yesterday- 4 pounds! At 32 weeks! That is an important milestone for development and health.
I am on 2X weekly visits and a weekly...
Alright, I have hit the 30-31 week mark.
I am FREAKED by some of the movements. I think- is she having seizures in there? It feels like she has six arms they way she beats me internally!!!
Anyone else having this?
Bp still low. no sigs of pre-eclampsia!! god just get me past 33 weeks...
Oh Turbo! NG tubes are No Fun At All.... but I'd be surprised if a wee one that early didn't have a bit of jaundice. Don;t worry, you'll have a glowing space baby for a few weeks and he;ll be grand.
ULTRASOUND TODAY.... good growth curve! Good measurements! SHe looks healthy and happy.... I am...
Oh congratulations!! I am so happy he made it into the world and he sounds like he is FABULOUS for a 33 week baby!!
Take care and good luck on the feeding issues!!
Congrats and good work ladies! I am jealous and anticipating the sweet cuddly babyhead smelling times that await you!!!
It's a GIRL!!!! Did I say that yet?
I am naming her Cordelia and need a middle name.
At 27-28 weeks somewhere (next ultrasound to measure growth and uterine blood flow is...
Kellyhm- Go baby go!!!!
Thanks to everyone for the support. He just got home and went straight to bed. I am sitting here feeling like a scab has been ripped off my heart. Just sucks. I know it takes time to get over being dumped but geez it hurts hard at first. We've been together since we...
Having a very very hard day.
Had an ultrasound yesterday. THe ultrasound was amazing. I could see her little hands, even her face when they did the 4D thing. It was so so cool. She is so beautiful. She is at 24+ weeks and weighs 1 pound 5 ounces. Aawwww...
Husband did not show up for the...
Oh GA chckngirl, Olivia is just precious! I am so HAPPY that your docs took your Pre E seriously. She is such a delicate pretty wee bean!
On my plate, found out the baby is another GIRL...my record will be 4 daughters and one son. My boy is less than thrilled.
I have picked out a name...
kellyHM, don't tell her things like "you can have another one" or that "This was probably a blessing." I have been told both many times and NO ONE suffering a miscarriage finds those two statements helpful.
Just tell you you are sorry and you care for her and you want to do whatever you can to...

i did have PreE, but I will not go into what happened. You need positive energy. Being on your feet has nothing to do with it. EAT PROTEIN. Get your doc to TRACK THIS, get a 24 hour urine collection NOW. You would probably not be indiced if you get PreE (and it certianly sounds like...
Wow.... hope to hear about a fast and happy ;labor and bouncy baby soon!!
I see you are from Dunnelon... I have family there! My aunt and uncle run a quarter horse farm there.
Well guys, I am still hanging in there. It is a lot more reassuring now that I can feel baby kick. Had the...
Shadowhills, PLEASE make sure they are checking your blood pressure, checking your urine for protein, and that you don;t gain more than a few pounds in a week. My midwives ignored my BP and weght gain and it had tragic outcomes.
Ultrasound showed a healthy, happy baby, 21 weeks along, 12...
No redhen, you're not impatient.
I know the struggle of waiting and not knowing for a while what the news is. It's frustrating because it is RIGHT THERE in your OWN BODY and yet.... we don't know.
Just hold on and keep trying.
I am still injecting lovenox 2X daily, baby aspirin, folic acid...
Redhen- The biggest hurdle is over, there is a little fellow in there implanted and dividing. I'm still pulling and believing for you.
My biggest thing... I FEEL BABY. It's a lot better now that I can feel the wee creature, up to now I was going in for doppler heartbeats every week.
THe...
CONGRATS REDHEN!!
IVF is such a hard process, some of my relatives went through it. I am so happy its WORKED!!!
Still hanging on here- Lovenox injections 2X daily.
Now at 21-22 weeks. Hard to believe there are some babies born @ 23 weeks that live.
Stay put and good for 10 more weeks and...
Oh guys, wow, I am into the realm of high risk.
I am scared to death.
I have had 4 losses- 6 wks, 9 wks, 16 wks, 34 weeks.
Turns out I have anticardiolipin antibodies.... can cause blood clots between the placenta and uterus. I'm giving my self shots with blood thinners... $400 a month and...
I'm 16+ weeks along and I WADDLE and WIGGLE and have a BELLY.
After eight pregnancies (The last one ending Oct 7th, what do you expect)
Had a quick check today , still a happy heartbeat, cross your fingers for me.
Happy good night to all you wonderful mamas.... your body is now an...
Oh but Mrs TURBO! Don't you know we have to save all the money for bombing the Middle East! *sigh* As one who holds Irish citizenship as well as US, I thank and pray for the care option i have..... go to Ireland and get the National Health from the UK.
I had my first trimester scan.. IT"S GOOD...
