Welcome Noelle!!! Well done bettymm, I hope you are getting rest where possible, lots of support and lots of precious time with your new bundle. All my best to you both. I am so pleased for you!


PS Zantac is amazing stuff.

[Nicole7]

bettymm - congratulations on the birth of Noelle!

Kellz - good to hear from you. Glad you're ttc again and hopefully this time it'll be hg free.

doctorseuss - vomiting is horrible when you're heavily pregnant - I hope it doesn't last long.

pookems - sorry to hear that there's a problem with the umbilical cord. Hopefully things will all work out OK. Don't beat yourself up about the vitamins - it's nothing you've done or haven't done.

Sorry I haven't been on for a while - not a lot of time at the moment. I can't believe Jack is already 4 weeks old. The time has flown by. I'll hopefully come back soon and write more. Has anyone heard from spinninggirl?

[Chedasha]

Congratulations Bettymm sounds like an ordeal but all well in the end.

Drseuss sorry you are still so sick. It's not fair we don't get decent pregnancies and it's such a battle. Yes 8 weeks sick is friggen long time.

Lvbngmum glad Lily is sleeping through. It's funny everyone who seems to have a night sleeper has abad day sleeper. Estella being the opposite lol.

Nicole wow 4 weeks already hope all is well. No haven't heard from her I hope Felix is alright.

Hi ladies

On the count down to christmas now & I still haven't finished christmas shopping urgh. Why are some people so hard to buy for, especially husbands & 17 year old boys..

Congratulations Bettymm, what a gorgeous name..

pookems - sorry to hear that there's a problem with the umbilical cord but I'm sure you are in good hands especially now they know. Please be gentle with yourself this pg & parenting thing is hard enough without blaming ourselves.

Kellzz - So pleased you can ttc again, sounds you like you have a good team looking after you. I've been where you have been so if at anytime you need to chat I'm happy to.. Here's hoping you get that BFP quuickly & a HG free pg.

doctorseuss - sorry you are feeling so yucky again & I had reflux with DS & it sucks big time. Heres hoping time goes quickly for you & this bub suprises everyone & doesn't wait till 41 weeks.

Luvbngamum - I'll try to pm you hopefully it works.

Hey to chedasha & Nicole7 & everyone else else I may have missed..

I too have been thinking of spinninggirl & little Felix, I hope all is well.

AFM - well feeling a little more settled in our house which is nice vomiting & nausea seem to have settled down still have yuck days but they are less than the good days so hoping it stays this way. Time seems to be going quickly & I haven't even had a chance to think about this poor bub which I feel bad about. I keep thinking next week I'll be able to but things just keep coming up, so hoping I can start to bond soon..

I have been having some dramas with my 13 year old DS he was beaten up pretty badly a few weeks ago at school & now is being bullied by a group of boys urgh so this is waying heavely on my mind. I just want to pack up & leave this place but DD is in year 12 next year & doesn't want to, which I understand. Sorry for the vent I know this is really not about hg or being pg but just feel a little lost at the moment & really have no one else to talk to...

Anyway sorry about the downer will go now chat soon... And if I don't get back in before christmas Have a WONDERFUL CHRISTMAS especially those with new bubs to spoil.

Congratulations Bettymm! Love, love the name! I'm stalking facebook for photos. Though I'm sure you have your hands too full right now for posting pics. What a lovely Christmas you'll have with your two girls. I hope you get some rest and relaxation, you deserve it.

JA - very sorry to hear about your son being beaten up. How awful for him! And you. You must be tempted to go down the school and give these boys an ear bashing. I hope the school is helping you with this matter and taking it seriously. Your son doesn't have to put up with it. Can you contact the other kids parents - or are they too feral to care?

[doctorseuss]

Hi Girls,
Good to hear your news...mostly. Sorry to hear about your DS getting bashed though J-A, how awful. Hope he's coping ok.

Still sick here and counting down. A friends baby girl was born today and she is just so gorgeous, made me realise it's just so worth it.

So glad to hear all your sympathetic words, I feel you really understand. It's going to be a long 8 weeks, the end of a marathon. DH is over it, just keeps saying he wants his wife back, he's burnt out and grumpy. He shows no enthusiasm towards the baby and won't even discuss names now. I think he regrets our 3rd child

[bettymm]

aghhhhhh
just wrote a big long post then accidently deleted it all

just wanted to wish you all a merry xmas and happy new year and hope you were able to enjoy it somewhat.
we are all ok..still away up the coast..which has been both good and bad..kinda looking forward to just being back at our little quiet house again. Though it has been nice having lots of family around to help entertain our older girl.

Will pop back on later to re do the personals.

Hi All

Just popping in quickly to check how everyone is going.. Hope you all had a lovely christmas.

bettymm - urgh I hate that whe it happens & I can appreciate you just wanting to be home.

doctorseuss - How are you going?? Sorry to hear about DH, I'm sure once number 3 is here he will forget all about the pg. I know my DH seemed to be much more sympathetic last pg & I reckon I need more TC this time.

memmie - Thanks it's been a horrible time for us & DS. School are now aware so fingers crossed they'll act if anything else happens. I was happy that assistant principle gave me numbers to contact him during school holidays in case something else happens. No point speaking with parents as the kids don't fall to far from the tree unfortunately.

AFM - had a lovely quiet christmas, but I have been struggling with my emotions lately, feeling REALLY down & not sure what to do about it. Unfortunately DS getting hurt has tipped me over the edge just feeling very down about everything & not able to see any light at the end of the tunnel. Just seem to be in tears all the time and not really getting any joy at being pg.. Not sure what to do, has anyone else felt like this??

Anyway sorry to be a downer, just wanted to check in..

[Pooks*potters]

J-A I've been feeling like sh*t lately too. Everything problem seems insurmountable and I get SO UPSET over everything. I'm just trying to step back a bit and separate myself from my emotions. I'm sorry things are so rough at the moment. I hope things improve for your DS soon, he's lucky to have you

doctorseuss- the countdown is really on. Please take care.

Wishing you all a safe and happy welcoming in of the new year! May 2012 be kinder to us all.

Hi girls, just checking in on you. I followed this thread a lot at the start of this pregnancy, checked out for a while and then felt too good to come in - I felt bad that I felt good and I knew exactly how you all felt! Now that I'm close to the end of the pg I wanted to see how you were all doing and add some words of encouragement. The hypnosis really truly made a huge difference to me, I credit that for the 5 months of hg first pg being 6 weeks of not-so-bad-hg this time around.

Congratulations Bettymm! Noelle is such a beautiful name.

Doctorseuss, that must be so hard. It's a really rough time, especially since it takes SO long.

J-A I hope it settles down especially with the principal onside.

Love to you all.
