Irishrose that's amazing news!
I'm delighted for you (inwardly seethes with envy 
) and what a great size! Enjoy him!!!
Mel1, are you seeing a consultant this week as well? I'm a bit nervous about my scan and consultant next week (36 weeks) cause haven't a clue what's gonna happen, the last two were really just meet and greets and I'm starting to feel this **** is about to get serious :-0[/QUOTe
Hi piper,
Was supposed to see my consultant today but was sent instead to see a blood specialist. Been havin blood tests done on a regular basis as i have no immuine system of my own, so some tests came back that i have "BAD antibodies" he said the name but me being a feather head and startin to panic forgot it. Normally a persons own body can fight them but i cant.
So seemingly if they are still present in this test i will have to go for early cection because the antiboidies will reject the baby and try to abort it. Bit like a person rejecting an organ, the body sees it as a foregin object and kills it. He had his serious face on today and left me a bit worried. and worse again itll be 2 weeks before the results are back. So no scan:(. Again!
Oh yea and no joy on the early induction.0 -

Is it an ongoing medical condition or brought on by pregnancy?

Congrats Irishrose!! I'm delighted for you- it makes it all the more real- I can't believe girls on our thread are having the babies already!! Josh is a beautiful name and I'm happy your all doing well and back home already!:D 0 -
Aw mel I hope things turn out ok, if nothing else im sure they will deliver him early just to be on the safe side! Could it possibly have something to do with being rhesus negative?? They told me that if i fall or something I have to go to the hospital and get the anti-d shots since I'm a rhesus negative blood type and the baby could potentially have positive blood and my blood would then attack his blood kind of deal
either way best of luck and i hope all goes ok!
Ive finally finished packing everything i needed to pack minus a few last minute bits to grab on the way out the door. I have a smallish gym bag for the labor ward, the EU mums bag for my OH hospital bag for snacks and magazines and ect, and then a carry on sized suitcase with bits for me and baby in there. Honestly im not sure if i have enough in there, i dont think i packed myself very many clothes. I might be buying myself another pair of dark pj pants or something not sure
I will have some stuff set aside at any rate for my OH to bring to me if i need them!
my bump dropped...again! but no real signs of anything yet...sigh! always hopeful though, especially after irish rose's great news today! 0 -

my bump is very low too.
I will go pack my bag and minute now...
A travel mug fell out of the press today and bounced off my bump,it was a bit sore buy my poor 3 year old was so concerned it made the pain go away:)
I never brought a dressing gown to hospital,a cardigan and slippers were fine.
I found the small wheelie bags plenty big you really don't need much it is 3 nights max 5 for a section.
I decided baby can arrive on the 17th Dec a that would suit me!
LOLLL.... Mine can arrive anytime after OH gets here too... be nice wouldn't it
Your poor bump! and your poor 3 yr old that was so worried, the wee pet! how cute tho! My wee fella is the same, if he thinks I hurt myself he really looks after me.
I am only packing a small bag and still taking a gym bag to take to delivery room which will have mags or whatever to pass time, it it comes to that. I was only in delivery room for 35mins before my son was born! :eek: Hopefully it will be the same but I suppose I should be prepared if its different. with it being my second I'll only be in for 1 night so wont need much! I love the idea of the cardigan instead of the dressing gown! I find they take up so much room in a bag so will take a cardi instead 0 -

Oh its horrible when they are away isn't it
My OH goes away for 6 weeks at a time.. Then he comes home for 6 weeks.. All year, its awful but I suppose at least he has a job! Does your OH do a lot of trips away all the time or is it just for a while?
tonight I feel so down in the dumps, I'm sure its just hormones again and I miss OH so much... I can't get comfy in bed much and at the same time i'm tired. Of course sitting here eating digestive biscuits and a banana isn't going to do much for me (I hope it doesn't add on half a stone either!! lol) Ah well.. only 4 more weeks to go.....0 -

oh mel that is awful:(
Is it an ongoing medical condition or brought on by pregnancy?
you poor thing.God Mel that is worrying. Is this your first baby? I'm sure you will get the best possible care and they won't put yourself or the baby at risk.Hey Irishhorse, CONGRATS.... wow... soo exciting for you to have your wee baba!!! I'm soooo jealous

Seemingly its an ongoing condition which is only tested for (which is a bit shocking to my mind) when your pregnant. If i wasnt pregnant my antibodies would turn against my own organs so maybe this little baby has saved me a lot of problems down the line, maybe even saved my life! So i dont think it is the resus thing. I was hospitalised 3 times last year for internal pain which no reasons have been found and the sums are starting to add up i think!
Fortunatly the staff and docs in mullingar do seem to be really efficient at there job and put me at ease straight away. It wasnt the usual crap they give you of "it just a bad case of piles dear, your fine"
I have every confidence that i will get the best care from them so im not going to let this stress me out too much as that is sure to always make things worse. Im just very glad it was spotted!! To be fair i have had to deal with lots of these kinds of issues since i broke up all my insides when i was 16 after a bad fall from a horse.0 -

hey Rach, sounds like you are having fun... This morning there is just no way I'd be able to stand in the kitchen and cook! I made scrambled eggs and toast with a cuppa tea this morning and was so tired after I could barely eat it!!! I actually drove my son to school in my pj's!! it was just too much work to get changed! (we are only like 2 mins from school tho!)
how organised are you to cook and freeze before baby comes along!
Thank God baba is sleeping now! cause its starting to hurt when its kicking and squirming.. I actually think I am bruised on the inside of my belly at times!0 -

Think im going to go for it!!!
Am i mad to be putting up me tree on 22nd Nov?
Some will say so :P But others will say you are very smart cause its easier to do it now than when you are farther along
I would love mine up, I just love all the christmas decos up
Yikes sound like you've had a time of it honey!! I'm really glad to hear that they are good at the hospital and you are happy with it! You're right that its good to find it out now and deal with it.. Hopefully it will save you lots of problems in the future! Be well honey xxx0 -

haha im barely able for it myself- i was at work yesterday and I nearly killed myself cause someone called out sick and we were up the walls and im paying for it today! I just can't stand on my feet 7 hours anymore! I'm making pumpkin pies which should take an hour tops and im well into my second hour of making them and havnt started the pumpkin bit yet...gah!
oh i dont know if i will be that organized...im really hoping i get a spurt of mad energy before baby comes so i do cook all of this food i was planning on making!
I know how you feel about the baby hurting when moving...hes completely run out of room in there and has no qualms about pushing me around haha! I'm glad hes moving but OW!0 -
