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

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

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

Hi, Thank you for your message on my page and congrats on having a baby girl!!!! I am also having a girl and me and my hubby could not be more excited about it.

I am so glad that your ultrasound went well. We are all going through the normal emotions associated with being pregnant. Take care, Margy :)


kellyann - Tuesday, 15 Jan
Hi hope your well .Heidi Jane is lovely and very feminine. Im having the same problem with names. I really wanted to call our baby Charlie but my husband wants to call him William (Billy for short).Our last name is Beckett and im not sure if Billy Beckett sounds right.


margysd - Tuesday, 15 Jan
Hi, I had my “big” ultrasound on Wednesday, January 9, 2008 where they take all of the developmental measurements. I just put the pic on the page. In the next few hours, my husband will be adding the measurements on the page as well. (He has then saved in his palm pilot) The tech was not able to get all of the measurements that she wanted to get because of the position that our daughter was in, and will get the rest on our next ultrasound appointment in a month. We did get the most important news of all, and that is that she is progressing as expected and is healthy. We have been so incredibly happy to hear that so far everything is normal. I also really like seeing her personality start to come out. During the appointment, she was moving her legs and had one arm behind her head. It was really cute.

How has your pregnancy been going? I wish you much luck and look forward to hearing your latest baby news. Take care, Margy :)


mz.mocah5 - Monday, 14 Jan
Yeah its really weird, especially shopping for a lil girl. They have so much cute stuff. I just hope they were right bcuz I'm so ready for a change. And not to mention all I have is girl items.


mz.mocah5 - Monday, 14 Jan
Just wanted to stop by and say CONGRATS on the lil girl. I have the same situation 4 boys and now a girl. I thought all I could have was boys, guess I was wrong and I'm too EXCITED.


betsyclark - Friday, 11 Jan
hey..yes...we already have a name for a girl and a boy, but i guess the boy name is out the window for now. Our little girl will be named Lacy Joy Clark after my dad's grandma. let me know when you think of a name!


emma3 - Friday, 11 Jan
Congrats on your Girl.I am having a girl after two boys and can't believe it.It feels weird but lovely to be thinking about pink and girlie things this time.


Teresa - Thursday, 10 Jan
Congrats! I'm having a girl after 2 boys and am tickled pink! I can't imagine how excited you are. I know we love our boys, but it's nice to at least have one of each. Enjoy all the pink shopping......IT'S GREAT!!!!!!!!!!


betsyclark - Thursday, 10 Jan
i am on blood pressure medicine too. It's nothing to be ashamed of or sad about, you just want your pressure to be maintain at a healthy pase for you and the baby.


Buckaroo - Wednesday, 9 Jan
Congrats on your little girl. I am also having a girl. What are BP meds?


bdubb - Wednesday, 9 Jan

aholmes - Saturday, 29 Dec

hotcaligirlz - Friday, 21 Dec
Gosh im getting such postive feedback. I really apprecaite your kind words. Very reassuring!! (sigh of relief)


margysd - Wednesday, 12 Dec
Hey--- Thanks so much for the congrats. This is the first pregnancy for both me and my husband so we could not be more excited about it. We have been enjoying every step.

I am looking forward to hearing whether you will be having a boy or girl for #5. Please post a message when you find out, so that we can congratulate you.

I am also disappointed that the messages disappeared off the board. Not everyone's messages disappeared, but mine did. I noticed that your messages disappeared as well. I was disappointed because i had so many messages from great people that i have enjoyed keeping in touch with. Any way, i am still here as well. Take Care. :)
