Pregnancy #62

[AL10]

Hey all thank you all so much for your well wishes !

Baby Girl arrived at 14:42 and weighs 7lb7 and she’s perfect I can’t believe I made her (along with Mr10 of course lol)!

I’m doing okay but haven’t moved much but from the small bits I have I can tell it’s going to be a painful time ahead, going to the ward now and first night on my own as mum lol xx

Baby Girl 3 is here!

She arrived on Monday, followed the trend of her sisters and being born at 36 week (and 1 day), weighing 5lbs. She was born at home, delivered by daddy and we are all absolutely obsessed with her.

Baby shark is here and it’s a boy 🩵

Just popping in to say Baby # arrived this week, ended up going for a c section. Baby is all well and healthy but life is definitely overwhelming and difficult atm. Thanks to everyone on this thread you've all helped and entertained so much over the past 40+ weeks

 

[AL10]

On my way down the hospital for my C section now, wish me luck ladies! Scared isn’t the word lol I hope everything goes well!

Just thought I’d let you all know that baby Plonk arrived this morning after a very speedy delivery and she’s perfect

Posting here as I still haven’t told most people.. might just causally roll up with a baby one day

But I’m officially at 24 weeks pregnant / viability

It seemed like a lifetime away previously with me having had all sorts of complications and fertility issues and previous losses. I’m hoping time doesn’t fly by this fast once the baby is here though!

Hi everyone, just found out I’m pregnant yesterday 🥹 can I join the thread? First time mum here, no sisters and no friends who have had a baby and feeling quite overwhelmed!

 

[Jaybob]

Unfortunately the statistics have caught up with me. I had a 10 week scan this morning and the baby died at 8 weeks. I always knew that she had a miserable chance of survival, but I honestly thought I'd be one of the lucky ones. It wasn't to be.

I just had to come on and say, I found out today that I’m having a girl after 4 boys!!! (3 are mine, 1 is his and this is our first together) I’m beyond excited and cannot believe it

 

[Veebee123]

Hi all, found out this week I am pregnant. 5 weeks according to last period- terrified, exhausted, but alsp
Excited. I have an almost 5 year old and it makes my heart burst thinking how she will be with a new baby (all being well)

Any tips for colostrum harvesting and how to use it? Managed to do 2.5mil tonight for the first time so dated and chucked in the freezer. Feel so proud!!!

Well done! I never managed. I’m still in hospital (all ok but being observed) and baby is two days old, colostrum would have been handy as ive not been able to express more than 0.1ml and milk hasn’t come in yet. Baby has had to have formula which is fine but wasn’t the plan! Just bring it with you to hospital

Hi ladies

I found out I was pregnant this week and its absolute shock as we have been trying for over 3 years! Dr has assumed I'm 7 weeks today based on my last period, but I tend to have longer irregular cycles and I think their prediction might have me ahead by at least a week. I took a Clearblue a couple of days ago came back with 2-3 weeks.

The day after I found out I was very nauseous and many symptoms but for the past 24 hours I've just had cramping/food aversions!! I know it's pretty normal but I'm trying to not freak out lol. I'm really impatient and just want to be at 12 weeks !

Well, as expected, my parents have had a bad reaction to my announcement and I’m officially Disappointing Daughter of the Year. So glad I’m speaking to my psychologist in an hour.

Our baby boy arrived earlier this week via emergency c section
omg has it been wild and such a strange blur
It’s all so overwhelming and I feel like I don’t have a clue what I’m doing with him or if I’m doing the right things.
my milk still hasn’t come in yet which I think is adding to all the stress but hoping it will soon

Anyone waiting for their babies I hope they’re with you soon!
also I packed so much stuff in my hospital bag and used about 3 things
The best thing I took was a portable nightlight (just got off Amazon that does different colours etc) for when we were on the ward. Also if you’re hoping to breastfeed buy the silverette things - I decided to wait and see how I got on and holy moly did I regret that while I was waiting for Amazon to deliver them!

Had my scan at EPU this morning. Everything is fine and where it should be. Bleeding was caused by a little blood sac that's still there so they've said to expect bleeding to continue for a while whilst it empties. I am having the worst farts and trapped wind at the moment and the strength it took not to fart on the table whilst she's wiggling the wand round and pressing on everything was insane.

 

[anything at all]

We’ve been discharged from fetal medicine !

Need to go back to antenatal for scans later on because placenta is covering cervix. But everything with baby actually looks okay now

We did get some scan pics (had to ask) and did not have to pay for them

 

[Seeemm]

Hey all!

I had my baby 2 weeks ago and have been in the newborn struggle bubble since Baby See is doing great, me not so much but getting there! So glad he’s finally here safe and sound

 

[Shinythings]

Had my follow up scan today. Everything is looking good and got to see the heartbeat. It's grown so much in 10 days!

I'm finally joining this thread properly 8 weeks with my IVF miracle and I saw my little bean today. I have a teenager from when I was 16 so this all feels brand new to me again!
