Hi ladies.

Hope you have a lovely day tomorrow Zoe and Helen!!!

Been to liverpool today and got to got to alderhey on Wednesday for a mri scan to check for tumours on Dexters brain..... made me a bit upset as in my head I had 5 weeks till I maybe had to face the reality of the situation and now if this scan shows tumours it'll be almost 100% that he has tuberous sclerosis. I know it'll give us time to get to terms but it's just bloody hard!! C section been booked for the 18th Feb unless something happens in the mean time that means he needs to come sooner.

Hope everyone else is ok

Thanks rachel I will have a look this week. I will be 36 weeks on saturday so might start straight away as ive heard it doesn't actually bring on labour, just make things easier when it does start.

Cant be easy for you MrsT, you seem to be handling it all so well - not sure how I would! Will be thinking of you on Wednesday. How long will it take to get the results?

 

[MrsT2711]

It's a struggle. Today has been hard because I think we got chance to take in info last Monday then a week to digest then it all hits home again today when we go through everything again and then we could potentially have a pretty serious diagnosis this time next week. Takes around 48 hours to report on the scan so i'll probably get the results at my consultant appointment next Monday again unless they are happy to do a telephone consultation on Friday but we'll see.

Oo mrst I can't imagine the worry ur going through thinking of you my love and thanks everyone for nice comments Helen still suffering with pelvic pain xxx

 

[beckyboo1]

Blondy...I'm with you on playing with LO's...so sore I just can't do it for long. Feel like a bad mum right now.

Had my 36 week appointment today...all is good, baby is head down, so back in another 2 weeks.

My bedside crib arrived today, so of course I had to put it up.. I'm quite impressed and hoping that baby lasts longer in it, than my first did in the regular crib.

So so tired....another early night coming up for me

Mrs T...can't imagine what you're going through, but I think the way I'd look at it, is it's best to know these things now, before baby is born, then the medical team are all prepared for you, and you'll just get the best care x

Pip...can I ask why you've changed your mind about BF? I know everyone has their reasons for not wanting to do it, but just wondered what had changed your mind. When LO arrives, you may feel different again xx

 

[blondy13]

MrsT I'm sorry you have had a hard day and I can totally imagine that you were hoping to deal with it in 5 weeks rather than now but like Becky said you'll know that the best care is coming to your little man, whatever the outcome. I hope the mri scan isn't too scary, will be thinking of you on Weds.
I'm going to start RL capsules I think, I struggle with drinking tea at the best of times. I'm a weirdo! But anyway going to start at the end of this week I think.

 

[Flickalicious]

I started raspberry leaf tea at 32 weeks. Haven't increased it as much as I'm supposed to because I struggle getting so much in but still have at least 1 cup a day. I really like it. It makes a change from normal tea

Full term tomorrow!!! 37 weeks. WTH? How??

I duno what's happening atm but I can hardly walk anymore, it hurts so much. Im getting incredible pain in my pelvic bones and nearly collapsed the other day, my legs wouldn't hold me up!
Are any of you ladies getting in that bad? xXx

 

[jazz1984]

Thanks for your help jnyfer, might give it a go myself!

Baby is 3 5ths engaged so not really feeling the wadle yet, still at hb stage

Mrs t our thoughts are with you and I think becky is right it would surely be better to know one way or another and then dexter can get the best treatment. Hopefully it will be good news anyway xxx

Anyone else really struggling to drink?

 

[Cosmogirl7]

Oh MrsT I'm thinking about you, must be a stressful time. Glad they're taking good care of wee Dexter though.

Have a great day today Zoe!!

In the past 2 days I've found out my SIL and best friend are both pregnant, soooo excited that we're all going to have 2015 babies!!!

Got the drs again this afternoon, I'm praying baby has turned and not breech or transverse anymore. I've not felt any kicks in my ribs though so not confident xxx

 

[beckyboo1]

Zoe- hope you and Helen have a lovely day today

Cosmo-fx for baby having turned this afternoon

Warning... Moaning status coming up: I've woken up feeling poo. Was shattered yesterday, so decided on an early night. Had a bit of a sore throat but thought it'd go.... But not woke up feeling like I'm swallowing razor blades

 

[blondy13]

Zoe enjoy today!
Becky poor you, sounds like you need a day in bed. Is there anyone that can have your little one?

 

[jazz1984]

Hope you both have a lovely day today zoe!

 

[bricey]

MrsT I can't imagine what u are going through as the wait is the worse part, keep positive and strong and take each day as it comes - don't feel you need to be cheerful or even get up some days, just be how you want to be and get through the next few days together. This could all be about a tiny little tumour on his heart that can be sorted - it doesn't have to be the worst news. I'm pleased they are looking after you

I have scan and two appointments today with the diabetes team, checking his size and then hopefully getting my induction date. The insulin has controlled my sugar levels so the appojntments can focus on the plan as I believe they don't let you passed 38weeks on insulin

Have a fab day Zoe - filled with love and happiness

 

[Zoe_helen25]

Thanks girls just changing it from civil to being married pretty much just signing some paper our best mates doing there too as govement are allowing people to change for free for 1 year I had my wedding day on the 28th October 2013 so just going out for something to eat after x

So bricey does that mean lil one is gonna be with u in less then two weeks xx

 

[bricey]

its still a special day - with a lovely celebration meal

well, I think so, I turn 38 weeks on 24th so I reckon they will book me in for induction w/c 26th so would happen that week. unless they don't let you GO OVER 38 weeks which means next week?! i'll know more tonight I guess! I am going to demand answers as need to prepare myself physically and emotionally - going from having a month left to max 2 weeks is a big shock

 

[JnyFer]

MrsT still thinking of you and I know it must be so emotionally hard at the moment but you are defo in the right place and have a good team of Drs looking after you xx

I have my consultant appt today and I'm 37 weeks today so full term. Bricey I get given my induction date today too. I'm looking forward to being able to prepare everything knowing when he is coming for defo. Makes it so much easier for me both mentally and for arranging childcare ect. After today I can get things in place and then relax xxx

 

[JnyFer]

Just wanted to show you my bargain nursery stickers. Got them from the 99p shop and love them xx

 

[beckyboo1]

[Zoe_helen25]
