October baby

[little t's mum]

Hi
I have just joined this morning. I recently found out I am due with our second child on Oct 16th. So excited. We already have one 2yr old boy and can't wait for the second to arrive.

Look forward to sharing my pregnancy with other october mums.

Thanks
I am not really feeling pregnant at the moment. I have (touch wood) only had one day of morning sickness. Can't wait to see the doc and have a scan.

HI
Hey fablis and brideofjabba congratulations on your pregnancies. Cool that we are all due the same day. I have been slack and haven't yet been to the doctors yet. Have an appointment with OB so am looking forward to that and getting to see the heartbeat. Just need to visit the GP to get referral. Where do you both live and where are you having your babies?

I am going to North West Private in Brisbane that is where I had my first. I loved it there. I am seeing Dr Sheehan.

Hey Little T's Mum,

You're not far from me! I'm on the Gold Coast and will probably have bub at the Pindara Private Hospital at Benowa. My doctor is Dr Andrew Cary and he is great! In fact all the girls at my clinic (going through IVF) were fantastic.

Are you feeling any morning sickness yet? Over the last couple of days I think it has started to creep in for me. I am feeling really queasy when I am hungry, so I eat and then I feel full, bloated and have indigestion and then I start to feel queasy hungry again ..... I can't win! I am also struggling big time with fatigue. Hopefully this is as bad as it gets.... I don't know if I can handle vomitting.

I see Dr Cary on Friday for an early scan, hopefully I will see a heartbeat!!

Hey, i'm in Toowoomba and will just be going to the public hospital here, unfortunately we can't afford private care which i am miffed at! lol Since my dh works on commission +base wage, some weeks we could afford it and some we couldn't, kwim? So we can't really risk signing up for private health. Maybe in the future when we have some other debts paid off...anyways! enough of that! lol

I haven't gone to the drs yet either. I will in a few weeks. I'm hoping for an early scan since i had a m/c in Jan. I will go to the private hospital for that because they give you your scan on cd!! you can pop it in your computer anytime and have a peak! totaly cool! The public hospital only give you a few lame print outs. So i'm totally saving my money for a really good scan!

That sounds cool getting a cd of your baby. Last time we got a 3D photo, think they had only just got the machine when I had that. A friend of mine who is having (naturally concieved) triplets went to the same place I am going and got a video this time. She thinks it could have been because she couldn't stop crying.
I am going to ask for one though. Would love to be able to look at the baby all the time. A cd is good too though then you could take it to work.

I think the morning sickness might be creeping in. Thankfully it only seems to be late arvo early evening. Or if I have coffee instant seems to be worse than plunger. DH has to cook dinner though which works out good for me. :D Last time I didn't get it till 9 weeks and it lasted all day and was like a constant hangover for the first few months then got slightly better. Ginger Nut biccies helped last time.

My appointment with Dr Sheehan isn't until end of March. Very busy 4 weeks away tomorrow actually. So at least I should get a good view by then.


Talk soon,
Little T's Mum
