Well I didn't get around to having DD take my picture, but I found this one from last week (my birthday actually). So I was 29 weeks in the picture.

Oh, and my midwife appointment was rescheduled for next week b/c they were having a birth at the center today.

More belly shots, please ladies...especially you, MBA!

Miriam! Glad you are off bed rest! I hope those little ladies stay put for a few more weeks and get big enough to avoid the NICU while also avoiding the induction/c-section.  goodvibes.gif  Totally thinking of you!!! 

 

Tear-- I hope that was not your PPAF!!! EEEK that would be early!

Just wanted to pop in an share pics of my Big Girl, who will be 1 on Saturday.  I really can't believe it!  All of a sudden the baby left and I have this TODDLER!  I miss the baby stage, but this part is way fun, too.  I love watching her walk around like a drunk sailor, and listening to her words (mama, baby, bye bye, go go go!, Grama, chicken, Ra (our cat), done!, and book) as well as her cute little babbling sentences.

 

She also starts daycare tomorrow, and I'm kind of anxious.  I'm blessed she could stay with my MIL this long, and I know it's time, but I'm still nervous, just the same.

 

Love checking in on you ladies, and always look forward to updates.  :-)

 

MUAH!

Nice pictures, everyone!

 

Kyamo, do you know boy or girl yet? It's so sad that they wouldn't just tell you at the scan.

 

So, updates. 27 weeks. I just got back from my latest checkup and passed the GD test (2 hour). Yay! The drink was the most awful thing ever conceived, though. Ick. She started kicking like crazy as soon as I started drinking. I guess we were both in agreement at how awful it was. orngtongue.gif Baby is estimated at 1.1kg and ~37cm, which is right on schedule. My son was always measuring slightly small (except his head, which was ahead by a couple of weeks). Maybe she'll be bigger than he was? I am hoping she's about the same size, though, because he looked so cute. smile.gif

I tried to update yesterday, but obviously my phone was not doing what I wanted.

I had a big bleed monday night, and yesterdays scan was history repeating.
7w5d bub with no heartbeat.

Yeah, I called my midwife today to see if the report was in yet. It was, and its a boy. But I wish I hadn't called, as they also detected a possible problem in the heart. Since I was just on the phone as opposed to a proper appointment, and because the phone makes me nervous, after I hung up I thought of a pile of questions I should have asked and didn't. She said it may be nothing at all, or it may be an issue, and that I should have another ultrasound later to check on it again. My next appointment is Nov 2 (appt with the midwife, not the ultrasound), so I will be able to speak with her in more detail about it at that time.

Dang, I was all ready to post this big happy message about MBA's beautiful belly, and then poor Milkshake and Kyamo... I feel for both of you so much. greensad.gif I'm tired of sad news.

Miriam, you look gorgeous.  Absolutely stunning!  And I love your dh grinning in the background too.  I hope things go smoothly for you in the last few weeks!!

Milk8shake--I'm heartbroken for you again.  Tear and I think of you tons, and so wish to see you with a healthy baby.  Much love from both of us.  For what that's worth--I know it can't fix anything right now.  Hugs.

Oh no, they are not doing anything wrong. Nov 2 is just my next regular prenatal appt, which was scheduled beforehand. It's not like they were refusing to discuss it, I could have talked more about it on the phone. But because I get kind of flustered on the phone, I am choosing not to call back with more questions, instead I want to wait for my regular appt. It is probably nothing, it's just impossible not to worry.

Kyamo - is it an echogenic focus? Just a blurry lit-up spot on the heart?
In all my experiences, I've only had those come back okay. The babies with actual heart thingies - uh, not detected on ultrasound at all.
I would encourage you to relax about it if that's all it is.

Milkshake - I am so sorry. This is just not fair. I wish you had good news.

 

Everybody else - I haven't checked this thread, like, ever... at least not since the last thread I think. I am not a BSL regular anymore... I have moved past the bitterness to someplace much more healthy. You are all so wonderful with your happy little babies and bellies. I am so envious. I am also happy for you.
