Hi Everyone ! I am now 36 weeks and all seems fine with baby #5 xx ************************************************http://gallery.webfetti.com/webfetti/glitter/category/8/0/1123711/false/main.jhtml

The 12 week scan was fine and I can't wait for the 20 week scan on 7th Jan....and to see if I have a five a side footy team or a little girl!! (not that girls don't play football!!)

Had tht Triple test for Downs Syndrome and more bloods yesterday (11/12) they have put me in 'High Risk' because of last time with Pre-eclampsia and Hellp syndrome ( not much fun)

Fingers crossed it was a one off bad pregnancy and birth x

Starting to really show now and I told family and friends the news last week....mostly shocked as I said that I would NEVER have any more!!

IT'S A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT A COMPLETE SURPRISE XXXXXXXXXXXXX

Heidi-Jane Zoe Heydon XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Bye For Now xx

Zoe & Baby #5 xx 4BOYS AND A GIRL!!!!

11th Jan 08

Well not the best of weeks as they put me on medication to control my blood pressure which was 150/98 so it needed to be done but it knocked me sidewards! Headaches,feeling weepy , light-headed and generally fed-up (slightly better today!)

We were due to fly to Australia on 26th Jan and the Dr and midwife have both advised against me making the trip (v.sad) as it's too risky.

We were going to validate our visas in order to emigrate next year so Jerad is going with 3 of our boys and i'm at home with Keane (22 mths)so at least they will have their visas stamped..i'll have to try and find a way around it....somehow!

All is well with my little girl...Perfect ultrasound...good strong heartbeat and LOADS of movements so lets just sort her mother out and we'll be fine!!

Zoe & her 1st daughter!!!! (weird saying that!!)



Monday, 14 Jan
Thankfully BP is coming down and I feel alot better,loads of movement from this little girl xxWe have decided to call her Heidi Jane (Jane was my mothers name and she is no longer with us xxx) and i `m really happy with the name.... after much deliberation and not agreeing we come to a mutual decision and thats it!!! the boys also love it and keep referring to her by name ....so I can `t change it now!!

Wednesday, 16 Jan
Feeling alot better this week! The Medication must be working.....I am still really tired but that could be a combination of everything thats going on at the moment!! I `m so sad that my boyd are off to Australia without me :-( I know I made the right decision but it `s still a shame xI bought a few little dresses and hats and felt really strange doing it..as if it `s not really a girl !! Its so hard to imagine , i `m getting loads of movements and some are quite powerful!! My husband has felt her and watched my belly as she kicks and is as surprised as I am !!Heres hoping the Bp keeps droppping and I get some energy from somewhere!!Zoe xx

Monday, 28 Jan
What a week!After going to see my consultant the advised me not to make the trip to Oz and that was exactly what I thought they would say and I cancelled my ticket and felt so disappointed. I really pushed my husband to continue with the trip as it wasn `t fair on the boys to miss out because of me and they have been so excited about it.They left at 5am on Saturday and I was not prepared AT ALL it absolutely broke my heart seeing them drive off xxxxEveryone says enjoy the peace but it `s just too quiet i `m use to having 6 noisy people here to cook and clean for ( yeah I moan about it all the time!!)and I miss it.On the plus side I have no washing , no ironing I have cleared out my cupboards and bagged loads of stuff for charity. Keane has missed them and calls out `DAD ` and `Ryan ` throughout the day...poor thing ots just him and me and we have a routine!!!!Bye For NowZoe x

Tuesday, 19 Feb
Just got back from the hospital, all seems well so far.....BP 130/80 which is really good for me!! baby is measuring 27 weeks...Fab as I was `small for dates last time `.I go back in 2 weeks for Growth scan and bloods and then return the next day for the steroid injections (4 in all 12 hrs apart!) The care is fantastic....no complaints lets hope all keeps going this well and that this little lady comes when shes due with no drama!Take care Zoe xx (EXHAUSTED TODAY!!)

Thursday, 21 Feb
I have so far resisted the urge to weigh myself!! but as so many people are freely saying how much bigger I am this time I thought I would have a go. I started off at 125lb and I am now 140lb so I have put on alot I suppose but I think i `m doing ok!!! and Heidi is growing ahead of schedule so thats all good so i `ll perhaps slow down on the eating for 2 !!! Feeling breatless alot lately and my back is in agony ...but all that aside all is well!!!Zoe xx

Tuesday, 4 Mar
Been and had my Growth Scan....the images were brill..so clear (like the ones you have to pay for..but this was free!!!) I could see her eyes which were open and her little mouth looking as if she was having a good old chat!! more importantly all was well and everything was in it `s rightful place..phew! I always worry when I go for a scan. She is weighing in at 2lb 6oz so far and i `m pretty happy with that as she is on course and at a `normal ` point in the chart. I start my steroid shots tonight at 9pm and then 3 more 12 hrs apart!! YAY. Its a total hospital week...never mind I am having fabulous care so far so I can `t complain XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Wednesday, 5 Mar

I had my first 2 shots last night and this morning and they do hurt..not the actual injection but the site of it a few minutes later! 2 Down 2 to go ...the things we do for our little ones :-)Exhausting week and it would be the week that we have a big wedding evening Dinner/Dance!! Amazingly I found a really nice dress...yes I look huge but then again I am 28 weeks pregnant so i `m not going to look slim am I??Bye For NowZoe xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

All my Steroid injections are done!!! Yay, Just left me totally shattered as I have had 6 trips to the hospital since Monday......no appt for a week or so now so i'm going to try and relax and enjoy our evening out tomorrow...even if i feel huge!! I am now tipping the scales at 140lb aaargghhh!!!

Bye For Now

Zoe &Lil' Miss Heidi xxxxxxxxx

All was going sooo well.....and now they have found protein in my urine and my BP is high (as usual!) and I have too much liquor (amniotic fluid) oh great an di'm only 4 weeks from my due date...I really felt like i would go full term this time :-(

*****************************************

30/04/08

Went to see the Consultant yesterday and bP was high again (130/90)but no protein in my urine this time ......she scanned me a nd palpated my belly and proceeded to tell me that babys' head is 2/5ths down......meaning engaged.....OMG im so scared now...scared of what to expect......i have another appt in the Hospital tomorrow morning when they should also have the results of the blood tests from yesterday....I'll keep you posted!! Bye For Now , A stressed out Zoe xx

3rd May 2008

***************************************

christelle - Thursday, 8 May
Hi! Just checking in to see how you're doing? I saw your last entry on this profile and hope everything is ok! Things are going smoothly for the most part on my end, not expecting any surprises. The baby is starting to find his kicking groove (or maybe he's stretching). Until now he was always so gentle, but today he's little acrobatics kind of hurt! Still cute despite that though!


pargy - Friday, 2 May
Things have been going by fast for me too. The first trimester was slow, but after that things are whizzing by. Congratulations on having your first girl. I am also having a girl, and I am very excited about it. Take care.


magali - Friday, 2 May
thank you very much, how are you feeling?


magali - Friday, 2 May
thank you very much about the encouringing word i will go to visit my phichiatric today ans she will have the last word wish me luck!!


hoosiermommy - Wednesday, 23 April
how are you doing? I had my little boy a week ago!! Check out my birth story and pics on my profile... hope all's well with you and little Zoe. :)


christelle - Thursday, 17 April
Hi! How are you doing? Hope all is ok! I'm doing well and so is the baby (according to last doc. visit). Doc is saying 99 percent sure it's a boy! Still find that a surprise since I always pictured myself as mom of a girl, but getting more used to the idea. Don't know how you did it with four boys! Feel free to send advice :)


chicanamommy - Sunday, 13 April
hey girl thanks for ur comment and for voting on my name list! take care and keep in touch!


hoosiermommy - Saturday, 5 April
Hi, how are you and little Heidi doing? I hope you're feeling well!

Here I am at 38 weeks, ready and waiting for the action to start any time!


Christelle - Friday, 28 Mar
Hi again! I know I'm a few weeks behind you, but just thought I'd let you know we haven't gotten anything ready yet either!!! We haven't bought much baby stuff yet (though we have received a lot of clothes). We still have to clean and organize our house, buy what we're missing, set up the baby stuff and wash all the clothes. But I don't feel stressed about it. It'll all get done and if you do it too fast you'll be bored later (my theory!)


Christelle - Thursday, 27 Mar
Hi! I invited you to the friends network as well cause I didn't feel like it worked when I accepted your invitation. Hopefully it'll work this time. Hope things are going well with your pregnancy!


magali - Monday, 24 Mar
congrats on the pregnancy! i have 5 kids as well, how are you feeling?


cristty - Tuesday, 18 Mar
Thanks for the comments! Best of luck to you also!!! :)
have you done your 3D yet?


hoosiermommy - Friday, 14 Mar
Hi - I'm holding steady, just going mad with the bed rest at this point! The closer I get to the big event, the longer the days seem to last!!

How are you? You must be glad and relieved to get the steroid shots over with.


lilmomma - Tuesday, 11 Mar
My little man did not cooperate for the 3D scan so we didn't get any 3D pictures. But I did get to see him on regular u/s screen. He is almost 3 lbs and doing great. I also passed my glucose test which was a relief...I had it with my first pregnancy and this makes the 3rd (and last) time they have tested me with this pregnancy. I have to go to the doc today for my rhogam shot....I so do not like shots. Well thought I would also give you an update on my hubby situation. We had a good talk and got my parents to watch our daughter last weekend...it was nice and strange to have the whole house to ourselves for the night....I even went a bought a little black sexy number from a local boutique (for him and to boost my self-esteem a little)I think we both relieved a lot of stress this weekend..wink, wink :o) How have you been? Is your pregnancy going good? I read your updates...what were the steroid shots for?


mom@thebeach - Thursday, 6 Mar
Amelia is my favortie too! My husband said he likes it, but it's not his favorite, I am trying to change his mind!


dannii - Thursday, 6 Mar
aww congratulations on ur lil girl, u planning anymore?xx


lilmomma - Wednesday, 5 Mar
Thanks!!!!


lilmomma - Wednesday, 5 Mar
Thanks for the info....and I did instigate last night...but the whole time I was feeling insecure and thinking that he was thinking about those non prego ladies on the website that he was checking out. :o( I know it is silly...but I always assumed that if he did ever do that....he was picturing me not some fake bodied women.


tweetbabyno.3 - Wednesday, 5 Mar
Hello I was reading your comment on the blog lounge and I was wondering why are you getting steroid shots?
