Hey Keslo!

I just wanted you to know that I am reading your diary!

Good luck with your screening tests today - I was reading 'What to Expect When You're Expecting' this morning (a great read!) and it mentioned that all results should be back within a week but you probably won't be informed of the results unless you come back as high risk for anything.

Your little bump looks so cute! I am very jealous as I am dying to get a bump - I still just look fatter than usual and I can't get my trousers done up. I tried wearing maternity clothes yesterday but they were too loose and I felt like a fraud.

I'm glad that your friends are all happy for you - the word seems to have got round here now and we've really only a couple of people to tell.

Love

hi all

the appt went well the blood taken hurt, and i didnt get a lolly

she said they will only contact me if i am high risk. and then ill find out at my 20week scan darn

she listened for the babys heart beat. it took her a little while (with me getting worried) but then she found it. it was amazing. its the first time ive heard the heart beat

id say it sounded more like a train.

my mom was really kind today, and brought me the whole supply of pregnacare i need. it was 3 for 2 in boots, so she got me 3 im relieved im now taking them.

brought some bikinis for my holiday i wanted one saying im not fat im pregnant lol. but didnt see any.

so my next appt now is 1/3/07 it seems so far away.

valentine: the only real people to find out now are the people i dont really want to find out. people from when i used to go out clubbing. long story, but im just dreading them finding out lol.

im sure you will get a bump soon i dont have any maternity clothes. im going to live in combats lol.

hope everyone is well

take care all

Hey Keslo

I had mine yesterday too! That was one BIG needle, I nearly died when she pulled it out. Its funny reading your diary as you are the same stage as me!

Your bump is cute, you must be nice and slim to have a bump so 'well formed'

Ah well, glad you are ok after your needle trauma

my bump seemed to appear from nowhere too...sure you won't be in your combats for long lol

Hi Keslo

I am catching up with your diary after moving over from 1st Tri. I love your little bump it looks so cute. I'm getting a bit fatter but having trouble finding things to wear. I have a few of my old clothes which are ok but it's a stretch finding 5 days of work outfits! LOL

Well done for being so brave at the test today. I hope you get your results soon. Do you have to ring for them or will they call you?

You have quite a wait till your next appointment. I am getting impatient for my 16 week check up. Can't wait to hear the baby's heartbeat again. You are right it does sound a bit like a train. I bought a pregnancy relaxing CD for 99p in Sainsburys. One of the tracks has a baby's heartbeat in the background. It's great to relax to apparently.

Sweet of your mum to get your pregnacare tablets for you. They are quite expensive.

hi sabrina.

ill find out the results at my 21week scan. unless there is a problem, then they will ring me.

yeh i was really happy mom brought me them. so kind of her. i can use them while breastfeeding too. so thats great im sorted now

oh did i say that the results from my first blood test came back. the HIV, hepatitis ones.

she went down the list saying, neg, neg, neg, pos was like huh whats pos?, Whats pos!!

but it was ok, it was the rhubella, which i needed to be poss, as it shows im immune.

so thats a relief.

got lots to do today. got to get dog food, pack for america, walk the dogs and do some housework. and im so tired lol.


whats everyone up to this weekend? something fun i hope

right better go try on the 2 bikinis i brought

 

[Riley's Mommy]

[OverTheMoon]

oooh enjoy your hol and make the most of it! Your last one before the bubba arrives eh.... try to relax and put your feet up a bit, and don't forget to wiggle toes and circle your legs etc on the plane journey. Look forward to reading your diary again in a week or so...

 

[delmesgirl]

just in case you haven't left yet......

HAPPY HOLS!!!!

[Sabrina]

Have a great trip. Try to get some relaxation time in as well as doing all the touristy stuff.

Drink lots of water and take frequent walks up and down on the plane. It will help your circulation

Enjoy!

hi all

ive been abit laxidasical in updating this im afraid (listen to me using big words at 9.40am lol)

the holiday was really good. the first few days were lovely and hot, then we had a bad spell with abit of rain. but still alot nicer than here.

we went to sea world and universal studios.

Sea world was amazing. the whales where breath taking. i wanted to jump in wit them

i got to meet some doliphins. and they are so gorgeous. and inelligent.
they would only really come over if you have some fish for them.
very rubbery feeling.

they had loads of animals there. including some arctic like penguins and a polar bear (who was sleeping )

universal was not so good however. the shops there were amazing. but all the attractions said 'no expectant mothers' so i didnt go on anything. so it turned out to be a waste of money.

i finally got me an ipod its a 80gb white video ipod. really chuffed. got it for $349 brand new. so bargain

food was good. mac donalds was out of this world. such a better standard. id get a double quater pounder meal deal for $7
ill resent paying for mac donalds here now lol.

i felt my baby while i was in america. that bubbling feeling ive read about. first i thought it might be my tummy playing games lol. but im sure it was baby such a great feeling. and relief after the worry of flying

the flight back was long. and boring. the wait for the coach was tedious. we caught it from london victoria. and we had a 3 1/2 wait. it was Freezing! thought it might be warm inside

it was all worth it to be greeted from the coach by my parents. who id missed alot. and 2mins later i spot my sister walking up with 2 bouncy puppys never ran so much in my life.

after loads of hugs and kisses. we got the lo-down on what happened when we were away.


the first day we were away, sasha got runny poo's and then my sister noticed blood in them

my sister rushed her to the vets, and the vet prodded her abit and said he thinks she has colitis (sp) she had a shot of anti inflamitorys and a course of antibiotics.
she has been put onto a diet of chicken and rice, in small portions frequently.

she seems fine now. she has a good appitite. so we are seeing how she progresses, and she may need to have a camera up the bum and biopsy if she doesnt recover

my mom is a nursing assistant, and said it might not be that, as even if it was just an infection, or something more minor, she would have an inflamed bowel. im going to look the condition up on the net soon.


the next thing is:

our neighbour above us has been a right madam while we have been away.

im so mad its unreal.

the thing thats hurt the most about her behaviour is:

she felt the need to call the rspca and dog warden on me

as if i dont care for my dogs. everyone knows they are my life.

her excuse was 'she didnt think there was anyone here with them'

my mom invited the lady from the rspca in, even though she wasnt even going to bother checking on them. she told my mom the lady was wasting there time, they are well looked after.

that really upset me. i love my dogs. they dont need for anything.

she has been complaining to the landlord about noise. even though my sister hasnt even played music or anything. shes been listening to her ipod to make sure she is quiet.

she stormed down one time because my dad was changing the lightbulb. and she said her table was 'shaking'

she stormed down at 9am complaining my sister and the dogs woke her up at 9am.

my sister has had nothing but problems from her.

shes been really good about it. all i could do was apologise to her that she had to go through it all. all she said was she had a good time with the dogs. she didnt mind taking sasha to the vets, she just wanted her to be ok.

so a huge thanks to my sister for being so good about everythink.

she brought them new leads, as she broke one and couldnt find the other, she got really nice ones, leather. and got them a new toy which they demolished lol

i couldnt believe it when i got home and heard about everything.

it all happens when your away doesnt it. im just so glad my sister was here, rather than the dogs being in kenels. as sasha would have been alone without alot of comfort.

ive since found out yesterday that this neighbour has moved back to america.

sorry this is so long lots to report hehe

hope i havent bored everyone.

hope everyone is well.

what have i missed then? come on i want gossip hehe

Hi Keslo

Great to have you back posting on your diary. Wow certainly seems like you have had a busy time of late. Lots going on and not just because of your hols!

It must have been nice to have a break in the sunshine at this time of year. Did you get a tan? 8) Did you know dolphins are supposed to know when someone is pregnant? Apparently they act differently around pregnant women as they can sense the baby inside with their sonic hearing.

Sorry to hear about your neighbour causing problems for your sister. That was mean of her... she must have had nothing else to think about but how to annoy people. People like that make me cross. When my son was little my neighbour complained about him playing ball outside. It made the atmostphere really awkward for a while but I had the last laugh when my neighbours son grew up and was doing the same thing! LOL. At least your neighbour has moved away now so you don't have to worry about her any more.

Welcome home!

[Riley's Mommy]

thanks sabrina

i didnt really get much of a tan, as i didnt get much sunbathing time in.

i didnt know that about dolphins. how wierd.

its such a relief knowing she is gone. i can concentrate on getting sasha better again, rather than worrying about her.

only 4weeks until my next scan. getting excited now

ETA: a piccie of my bump now

what do you think? getting bigger?

 

[Riley's Mommy]

hi, i went to the docs today for my problem. have to admit, i was really embaressed and not sure why. i went in and she just looked at me waiting for me to tell her the problem.

so i whispered ' i have a yeast infection'

she then says 'ohhhh thrush' with me sinking in my seat

she then asks if its internal or external. wasnt expecting that. so i mumbel mainly external i think.

she gives me a big tube to last me for the pregnancy. and must have senced i was embaressed. as she said 'its common in pregnancy'

i pretty much grabbed the prescription and ran

so now im not sure when or how often to use it

i also got my downs and SB results. they came back normal bout 1 in 3500 i think she said. so thats a relief.

hope your all well
