Hey Sindy! I'll pray your free of all infections asap..The last thing u want is an infection down there!!! It's already so uncomfortable and another infection to add to ur woes..Oh no!! I did go for my scan but docs said my fluid was still low so they wouldn't do a 3d. Just did a regular sonography and figured that my baby doesn't kick too much just shoves it's bum into me!! lol
Hey lucky you with the shower and all...Who is doing all the arrangements? Is it u? Don't tire yourself too much, alrite? You need to take plenty care now...We're almost at the end of it now...Where is the shower happening?? Good luck and keep the updates coming. It's really nice hearing from you...XOXO

Hey Sindy! Haven't heard from you since a long time...Hope you're doing alright and that everything's ok...I so have to share this...I was measuring myself for my nursing bra size and I've grown from a 34B to a 40B....!!! It's sooo scary! And to think I'm gonna grow even more after delivery....! How much more can my body take??!! lol
Pls lemme know how things are with u, ok?! Take care. Loads of hugs to all 3 of you'll!!

Hi Sindy!
Sorry to hear bout your hospital stay! Do they just monitor you when you have a urine infection? Hope your all better now! Aww a baby shower that'll be nice! Lots of pressies! Lots of lil blue things! The muscle thing only happens when i walk so i dont think its braxton hicks, i'll check if my bump goes hard next time tho! Are braxton hicks supposed to hurt? Hows the weather over in SA? Nice and cool for you? Its going crazy here at the moment, sunny one moment, snowing the next!! Ha ha!
Lots of Luv
Sarah xxx

Hey you!
Just thought id check in with you, see how your doing! Im ok, been baby shopping today so that was nice! Ordered the babys crib, im so excited!! You finished off your shopping yet?
Ooh quick question, do you ever have muscles in your stomache hurt when you walk? For the last 2 weeks i havnt been able to walk far coz the left side of my bump hurts, like the muscles are pulling?! It stops when i stop so i dont think its anything serious. I think thats the side the baby prefers aswell coz the left side of my bump is alway bigger than the right? Does that happen?
You gonna put any bump pics up?
I hope everything is well with you and your family, let me know how youve been!
Luv Sarah xxx

Hiyah!
Glad to hear your okay hun! I just cant imagine getting much bigger! I know i will but it doesnt seem real! D'ya know of a good way to avoid stretchmarks? Im moisturising my bump eveyday. Paul felt the baby kick last night! I was so chuffed!
I laughed when you said your lil guy is gonna be naked if you dont finish your shopping! Ha ha!
Are you feeling more tired now? You getting excited? 18 weeks just seems so far away for me! D'ya think you'll have your baby before your due date?
Hope your keeping well,
Luv Sarah xx

Hiii!! I didn't get the scan done y'day, just a routine check-up and from whatever my doc felt, things are looking good =) =) I'll be going for a color scan today in a few hours so that's when we'll find out if baby's all healthy and comfy...Atleast the growth is good and my doc is happy =)
After my check up y'day, I ws all over the house skipping around like a 12 yr old! lol... Can't wait to see my bub today...
Hey, your doc must be really good to ask you to go for a normal 'cuz every 2nd doc here is just waiting to do a C-sec. At my prenatal classes, we were told that a C is less painful but takes a long time to heal and could affect u later in life...And if you've had a normal earlier, stick to it...I'm sure the pain makes you love your baby even more, doesn't it??
As for my back being sore...Actually it isn't too bad 'cept post meals when I'm stuffed and the food and baby are fighting for place inside!!
Have you done up the nursery and had your shower and all?? Our customs here are soo different... We aren't allowed to buy any baby stuff till delivery and post delivery, I'll be at my mom's place for a coupla months getting used to the new role...So I don't get to do any baby shopping...but everyone else around me can... Sad isn't it??!!
Hope you're not in too much pain anymore. Must be difficult managing 2 babies. R u still working??

Hi sindy, hows you and bubs doing? Just thought i drop a quick message in to see how you are. Wow 7 weeks to go! Have you been busy working on the nursery? Im doin ok, i think my bump has expanded somewhat overnight! Its really filling out!
Hope to hear from you soon! Take care xxx


niki3082 - Monday, 7 April
Hey Sindy! Hope you're doing fine and that the baby's growing normally too... I'm still bedridden.Will have a scan done tomorrow and if things r ok, maybe I'll be out of the bed but can't go back to teaching anymore...Makes me feel really sad but when I feel my baby kicking, any pain, loss, sacrifice is absolutely worth it...Don't you think so too?? Just a few weeks more and we'll have our babies...!!
In India, we've got some crazy laws that makes it illegal for the dox to reveal the sex of the baby. There are plenty of mad people here who prefer having sons over daughters and when they'd find out that they're pregnant with a girl, many times would abort the baby. This normally happens in villages and small cities and it's been such a serious problem that there are villages without girls...It's mad, I know but this way atleast the number of abortions have decreased. So I don't find out what I'm having till I have it!! The suspense is killing me but I like it this way!!!
I'd prefer having a normal delivery without an epidural (isn't it how our moms had us??) But then again that depends on a lot of things so as of now, just hoping everything goes smooth and my baby's normal and healthy.
The only thing I'm fearing is my delivery date-it's May end and that's when the climate's the worst here...It's sooo hottt and humid...Will try planning a better timing for the 2nd baby! lol.
How's the weather in SA? What city are u from?? And what kinda delivery dyu wanna have-normal or C-section?? Take care sweetie =) and hugs to your babies...

Hiyah! Me again!
Glad to hear your doing fine! Winter like our summer?! Now thats mild! lol! I didnt think SA was a primitive place, i just know that different countries do things differently, like the USA and Canada (Even England does things differently to Wales!). But having said that im really not a woman of the world! I dont get out much! Bless me! I dont know half the places in England let alone further away! Ha ha! Do you live in a city? Im a bit of a country bumpkin!
I think its gonna be a hospital birth for me just to ensure theres plenty of pain killers around!! Maybe i be more adventurous on the next one! The hospitals arent great round here, even if you pay for private healthcare you still use the same hospital you just get a nicer room?!! We have birthing centres that do water births but they cant do epidurals and seeing as i have no clue how painful it will be i wanna keep my options open!!
Have you themed your nursery? Do you get a good amount of maternity leave? Less than 8 weeks to go for you! Ive got 19 more, i guess thats not too bad tho! Is your daughter excited? Your spelling is fine! Mine aint great anyway and i cant type at all, takes me ages!! Take care, chat soon! xx


longed4baby - Thursday, 3 April
Hi Sindy! Its a lovely sunny day here in Wales (quite rare in April!). Im relieved to hear its normal not to feel the baby move all the time! The other night it was like i had a tummy full of goldfish and now nothing! When do you have your scans over in SA? Just wondering if its the same setup as over here. We have them at 12 and 20 weeks, but ive got another at 28 weeks to check the size of the baby because i was born rather big (11lbs 14 oz at 2 weeks early!). Im hoping mine aint that big! What were yours like? Brandon is a nice name too! I like names that arent the norm, ive got such a common name i'd like my kids to have summat a bit different. Me and Paul arent picking a name till the baby is here either but we do have a shortlist to choose from! I think your right about bonding better when you know the sex, rather than being an 'it', its a he or she.
My midwife always asks if i have had any swelling of my hands or feet, i dont think i have but is it subtle swelling or extreme unmissable swelling? Have you decorated a nursery ready for your son? Do you know what kind of birth you want? Do i ask alot of questions?! Ha ha! Well i guess ive picked your brain enough for one message! Im off to enjoy the brief moment of welsh sunshine! Hope everything is going great with you and your family x


longed4baby - Wednesday, 2 April
oops i just clicked the wrong button and sent that without finishing what i was writing! How dull am i?! Have you got any names picked out yet? Your daughters name is great! Really unusual! Hope your having a good day! :-p


longed4baby - Wednesday, 2 April
Hi sindy! I really wish i knew what i was having! My husabnd Paul (im Sarah by the way!) really wanted a suprise! I nearly burst when the sonographer asked if we wanted to know what we were havin and i had to say no!! Did you find out on all your pregnancies? So your heading into winter and im heading into summer! How crazy is that?!What is it thats made your 3rd pregnancy harder than the others? As for advice, i wanted to ask, at 21 weeks is it normal to feel the baby move more some days than others?


niki3082 - Wednesday, 2 April

Hey! Your daughter's adorable! I'm really sorry to hear abt your son but I'm sure this time round everything'll be just fine..You'll be in my prayers.
My pregnancy was going smooth until 3 weeks back when I developed this wierd fish allergy, 'cuz of which my fluid levels dropped real low and now I'm on bed rest...Can't wait to go out and see the world again! lol But then I feel a single kick and everything's worth it...I haven't a clue how my life's gonna change post delivery but I can't just wait! Lemme know how you're doing too. Take care and be safe =)


longed4baby - Tuesday, 1 Apr
Hi sindy, thank you and congratulations to you too! It seems so strange to be talking to people around the world! Its like everyone is just next door! Im gonna be 21 weeks tomorrow, any tips or advice welcomed!! This is my 1st! Do you know what your having? Not long now for you! I wish i was having mine in may, ive got to survive the summer heavily pregnant! (At least its only a British summer!lol!). Feel free to drop me a line, anytime, take care! :)
