  • Good luck tomorrow Wallace!  

    I'll post even though I'm not officially on BR anymore.

    QOTD:  I treated myself to milkshakes (and still do!) and also to long phone calls that I'd usually put off.  I caught up with OOT friends and family in ways I hadn't in years :)

  • Hello ladies. I'm still here. Doc decided not to do cerclage removal due to his fishing trip. Which I'm okay with b/c I was going to stay here in bed anyways waiting for him to get back. So I'm still on BR.

    Also, at my exam I had an asymptomatic yeast infection. Bummer. So, he wanted to get that cleared up before we did the removal. He's a little worried about scar tissue so I'm praying for braveness and no scar tissure come Monday at 11.30 AM! I get any cavities filled without Novocain...maybe I can handle scar tissue too...? Or maybe there won't be any!! :D

    Hope to hear from Aiche soon!! :D

    QOTD: I...want snacks but with this YI I'm avoiding all sweets and grains...so I spend too much time cruising the Internet as my indulgence.
    Married to my dream husband
    Mom to 2 year old BG twins (Incompetant cervix, cerclage, and LOTS of bed rest)
    Pregnant with our next!

    Hey ladies, doing good here. All the changes with the bump have prevented me from getting to this board until now. My mom paid for someone to come do a deep clean if my house and they did a great job. I'm so excited!

    Thoughts to Aiche!

    How exciting and nerve-wracking Wallace, will be thinking of you as well!

    Crossing fingers for no scar tissue Mrs.Casey!

    Slept ok last night, today my LO is down low and dancing on my bladder and generally playing around with my cervix which is uncomfortable and nerve-wracking!

    My indulgence is my SO rubbing lotion on my belly and running me warm baths on the bad days.

    Happy Day, everyone!

  • I would be much better at home!

    I woke up this morning at 4:45 to pee, and  my underwear were full of blood. I am back at the hospital overnight for sure, then we'll see. My doc is out of town, and the doc covering made it sound like he was going to send me home tomorrow. We shall see what happens tomorrow.

    I haven't done anything yet to treat myself, that will depend on where I am now.

    Thanks for posting the check in CNYBride! Still thinking of Achie, hoping to see an update soon.

    Todays check in for me is a bit of a xp from the multiples board: Tomorrow will be our first appointment at CHOP (Children's Hospital of Philadelphia) for Baby A's Tetralogy of Fallot. We will be meeting with the Fetal Heart Programs team, have another fetal echocardiogram, some more consultations and hopefully a tour of the facilities. I will admit I am slightly anxious for it all, but mostly I'm excited to find out what the game plan is for our girls birth and their after birth care. Hopefully it won't be too scary to learn exactly what is going to happen and how the surgeries will go for Baby A.

    Hope to update and check back in tomorrow or saturday with you all!

    I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers!

    Yes it has stopped. It wasn't as scary as the first time, even though it was more blood, and a bunch of clots. I have complete placenta previa, so it's something that happens with the pressure on the cervix. I was put on bed rest at home after the first time, which was june 27th. If they don't keep me this time, I'm sure they will if I have another bleed.

  • Hi ladies

    What's with the bump yesterday I couldn't access it and most of today as well.

    Had 3 doctors appointments today , got some good news and some news I wasn't expecting .

     

    I know when I'll be having a c-section next Thursday due to the size of the baby.

    I also found out that I'm bipolar still scratching my head   as to how so m any doctors have misdiagnosed me my new mental health psychiatrist says it's quite common in people with bipolar , she's just wondering as to why no one saw the signs as they have always been there.

    as for the QOTD I watch a lot of tv and read a lot not really been very hunger  

  • New to SBR as of yesterday, still in the hospital today but am going home tomorrow if everything works out well. 

    I guess our "splurge" is sending DS to daycare, or "school" as he calls it.  I don't want to send him, but I can't give him the best attention and do things with him on SBR.  I'm super sad about the whole thing.  

    Oh, apparently I'm a Debbie Downer. nice.

    don't be to hard on yourself bedrest is very hard on all not just the person on bed rest , you are lucky you have childcare arranged to keep your little one busy .
