Pregnancy Info HOME

hello Becky. Im glad to hear that your baby is doing well. I was hoping for better news for you as far as your sub c, sorry to hear that. Make sure you take it super easy and get lots of rest. I m praying for you and the wee one!

Hey Carla...Hows it going> thanks for writing back...I am still in good spirits...I got to get out of the bed and walk to the living room from were I am camped out in the house for all of 12hours...I started getting sick, I guess from getting up and the doctor says He def doesnt want me out of bed at least until he sees me on wednesday...So I am ok with staying in bed cause I felt horrible standing up...How is your little one coming along...How much futher do you have to go...I hope all is well with you, and I thank you for the support and encouragement you have given me...Thanks Becky

Carla -I am so glad to hear you are all cleared up as well. It is such a feeling of relief. Has your Dr. given you the same precautions about preterm labor? I've had a stomach bug over the weekend and it scares me so much every time I don't feel quite right. Becky - is your Dr. thinking you will only make it to 28 wks or that after that you will have a better chance of going full term? I bet your baby's daily love taps are giving you a lot of reasurance right now! Are you tired of watching movies and reading yet? :)

Wow what a happy little family we have here. So nice to hear that we are all doing so well! Carla - Great news on the cleared up sub c. You must be so releived! Your baby really wants to meet you. Sarah - How are you sweety? Becky - Kicking is great isn't it. Eases our minds doesn't it. I hardly worry anymore it is great! Great news on u/s but hope that abruption clears up and doesn't get any worse for you. Take it really easy ok. Monicagie - How are things? Hope your bleeding / clotting has cleared up for you and bubs is ok? Just wondering girls how far is everyone and where are you all from? I will start - I am 22 weeks 3 days today 23rd January 2006 and I live in Australia, Queensland Gin Gin near Bundaberg. Oh and we didn't find out the s_x, I am just happy with a baby a healthy one at that! Oh and also: Just an update on tiger and I. We are going well. Don't seem to be getting any bigger, but boy can this baby kick up a storm, even saw my belly move last night and so did wade when I was laying down. Just wanted to know though, everyone says I look high and really spread out, not really popping as such, but my baby is by no means high. I have a high placenta so I am thinking that is why I look high, but my baby kicks so so low, does anyone else feel it so low, thought it would have move up by now as my uterus is way above my belly b___ton now. Bubba must be so comfortable, and I can't even say it is lazy as it kept me up last night kicking and moving, even when I woke up after a restless night it was still moving and wriggling away. Gosh does it ever sleep, LOL. But I love it all the same, stops me from not worrying ie: re the belly situation and not getting any noticeably bigger. Take care girls

Hey Sarah..How are you...I am feeling great about the baby moving. he seems to do it, in perfect time from when I am feeling anxious...For some reason I have a seperation in the babys sac, which holds the fluid and the placenta has a small abruption...They arent sure if it was a twin that died early and my body was getting rid of it, or if the sac seperated from the hemorrage? So Just hoping my little bean doesnt kick his sack too hard...I have so much going on that the goal is 26weeks but 28 is better. I am the worst case they have seen, that has made it this far with baby...Most people have lost baby a day or two after going home from hosptial..So I am still challenged and eager to beet my odds...I'm thinking if everything doesnt resolve by 26-28 weeks then I will probably be in the hospital after that point if they want to get me further...I think we are all just taking it day by day..Hi sheree...I am 19weeks but the baby is measuring 20weeks, so he is a little bigger which is great...My first pregnancy, you couldnt tell i was prego until my six month..and then it was just a basketball sticking out of my stomach..This prego, is probably going to be the same way, not showing much but when i stand I just have a small basket ball sticking out...This is a boy also..My hips always looked the same through out my first preg..Preg from the front and unpreg from the back...My step sister lives in Australlia Portland Victoria..I live in Maryland, USA. Well hope all is well for everybody and hope to chat soon..

hi Sharee, Becky and Sarah I am 16 weeks prego with my third. I live in Sherwood Park, Alberta, Canada. I have only seen my physican thus far with respect to the latest u/s, I don't see my obgyn until the 31st so not sure as far as going full term yet. I ahd a bit of the stomach flu over the weekend as well and my dh now has a very bad cold so I'm staying away from him as much as I can, so that I don't get it too!! Glad to hear that everyone seems in good spirits. Talk to you all soon!!!!

Hey ladies. Glad to hear everyone if feeling good about their pregnancy. I am currently 22 wks. We go in for our indepth ultrasound on the baby this Wed. We aren't going to find out what the s_x is. We have a little girl already (19mo) and I don't really care if it is boy or girl. I just want to carry it as long as possible. I think I would even be happy to go past my due date this time! I live in Belvidere, Illinois in the USA. I think I cam carrying a little different this time, but mostly because I was still exercising quite a bit with my 1st and this time I was on bedrest for so long. I had to switch into my maternity wardrobe alot quicker this time too.

Hi every body all is well and hope everybody is having a good couple of days...I went to the doctors again and they say that the seperation in the sac is because of the bleed that I had..So no worries there, they say it will go back to normal once the bleeding clears up...My doctor is very happy about my improvement and says that I may be able to go back to work when everything goes back to normal...I hope so, cause I miss taking care of all those preemie babies..I however have an infection now that can cause preterm labor...So Im on antibiotics..Well all is good and I am out of bed only to walk around...Yeah thats improvement and my bleed went from 14x8cm to 3x2cms Yeah

Hi everyone so glad to hear from you and all is going so well. What little miracles these little treasures are! I must be the furtherest along by a little bit hey? I am 23 weeks tomorrow (friday). Is it ok if I vent, I am feeling a little down after feeling so happy all week. Well tiger has been kicking me to buggery! All week it has been going to town in my belly and on three different occasions I have seen my belly move and on one of those occasions it moved considerably. I was in total awe that what the hell what is in there, where did that come from seeing as I don't think I am big enough to have something kick me like that! But last night I hardly felt a thing and today but if I did it has been so slight. I am starting to worry, seeing as those kicks were keeping me so sane and a smile on my face. Now don't get me wrong I am feeling them, but they are so sedate I could nearly miss them. Is it possible that bubba has move up my belly and there is more cushioning up high where it is now (seeing as I had a chubba tummy b4 pregnancy). See the kicks I have gotten till now were mainly really really low but must admit some were a bit higher and I felt them then and still reasonably strong. What is going on? How can it change like that? Maybe I should eat more weetbix. Do any of you notice that you are not getting considerably bigger and it is a slow slow slow progression. I hear people that say my belly just popped, when does that happen. If I got considerably bigger I reackon I wouldn't worry as much!!!!! Sorry girls I was so happy now I am just getting worried again! Just hard I guess seeing as I have been through so much as you all have!

Hi Sharee, Boy those hormones sure play hard with our emotions hey? Now I'am not as far along as you, but there are days when I feel movement and there are days that I don't.The days that I do feel the wee one I also feel him are only when he sits right up front. And when I ddon't feel him I a__sume that he his more towards my back cause I don't feel nearly as much pressure up front. So maybe your wee one is just hanging out in a position that weakens the feel of movement. Not sure, I'am no doctor! And remember you have the right to call your doc anytime you want!!! Take care!

Hey Sheree..Hows it going...I wrote you and for some reason it didnt post...With my first son he would turn and I couldnt feel him at all even when I was bigger..As long as you are feeling faint movements all will be ok...I used to lay down and drink really cold water until he moved..It work...I do it now with my little bitty guy in my belly...Sometimes they turn towards the back and head down and your poor insides take all of the abuse and because there isnt major nerve endings you dont feel them that much...I hope you feel better, keep your head up and keep trucking along...Im always on here so if you want to write I am here for ya...Your support buddy becky

hey girls. I am now 31 weeks pregnant. I was diagnosed with scxb at 6 weeks and it didn't heal until i was 20 weeks. my postings are still on the board around october of last year. I haven't seen as to wether or not any of yours have healed. I panicked when i found out something was wrong and i just knew i wasn't going to be able to carry the baby.but i was wrong.staying positive had alot to do with it. this is my fourth child and there are days that I don't feel him move sometimes all day. and some days it feels weeker than others. I wouldn't worry unless you went a few days with no movement what so ever. good luck to all of you.

I have not posted in quite a while - I too had a subC and was petrified ! Things have since been great. I do take daily shots to prevent clotting but nothing really to do with the subC- I have a medical condition. Anyway, I am 25 wks and have been feeling movement a lot lately. HOWEVER, there are days when I barely feel it at all - when that happens , as did with my 1st, 2nd and 3rd children, drink some apple juice or orange juice and sit down or lie down. The sugar will usually wake the baby and you will feel relieved. It won't happen right away, just give it a little time ! Don't panic if you don't feel for one day - it's not unusual. I have noticed that I don't usually feel the baby moving until I sit or lie down anyway which is very common. Usually your movement puts them to sleep ! Good luck to all and don't stress !

I am so happy for everyone with great success stories. Sounds like a lot of positive information on Subchorionic bleeds. It has been weeks since and bleeding and I have been approved to go on my cruise next week. I am 19 weeks and all looks good to go! Thank you for all of the support!

Sorry girls for my whinge last night, you probably all think I am an idiot, I am sorry, I have now just re-read my post and realise how stupid it sounded. Yes I am still feeling something even if it is not much, it is certainly a sure sign everything is ok. I was just comparing too much! Sorry!!!! Thanks for your support Carla & Becky I really appreciate it! Jennifer - We all appear to be doing really well (Carla/Becky/Sarah and LMR), so glad you are yet another great statistic for our little group! Having 4th - thanks for the tip, and glad you pregnancy is progressing so well also.

Hello all, There are so many positive stories here lately, and even though we don't know eachother from a whole in the ground we all care so much!! Its so nice to see that.... Sharee don't be sorry for anything I know what it's like to get results like we all have, and it vertually impossible not to worry about everything! It's called mothering and you have nothing to be ashamed of . I'm sure all of us are doing it right along with you!!
