Wow looks like everyone is ready huh :) Hassli u r only 37w4d enjoy ;) I am 38w4d and still feel like far away... Tomorrow is my appoint-t and if baby is still breech they ll schedule CS .. Lets see.. Or and all I can recommend is to focus on your breathing during the labour, they say the right breathing helps ease the pain. TDB I am sorry to hear you had food poisoning. i hope u completely recovered. Drink loads of water. Let us know how your dr appoin-nt went today. If not mistaken our due dates are the same 7th Dec ..? Moaca i heard only about dr Shiva in Medcare - my colleagues' wives delivered there. What kind of complications you got? Ladies, who are you greeting with the babies already? I think i am missing something. Has anyone "December due date" delivered?

Hello ladies. Cant believe we r getting closer to a Big Day. Mixed feelings - excited and scared at the same time.. How was your meeting on Oct 20? Did all of you meet? I was planning to come but the day before we went for overnight camping and came back on 20th at 2pm soo tired. Are you planning to meet again? I had two baby showers both were surprises 1 from colleagues 2nd organized by close friends. Both times almost fainted from the shock :))). Got huge diapers cake and beautiful bouquet of flowers made of tiny socks and bibs which till now feel bad to destroy :))) so kept as is till the time comes. We moved to weekly appointments. The latest was on Saturday. I am on 36w5d. The baby havent dropped yet :( thou being so active and moving a lot , thanks God :) . On Friday we went to Dreamland aqua park where i allowed myself to enjoy only dead sea pool and a bit of waves :)))) Or and forgot to mention that went to Barasti for the Halloween party dressed as a witch ;) and some of guys (strangers to me) came to ask whether the belly was real or part of the costume Lol!!! I shouldnt be wondering why my baby is active right ;)

Ladies , do you experience any leg cramps in the nights? Oh my God, I had the 3rd one for the past month tonight and i screamed from the pain (poor neighbours). My DH was massaging the toes for like half an hour before the pain gone :((( .... What do you do to prevent such "alarms in the night" ?

Hello mommies! We had our morphology scan 2 weeks ago at 18w5d, thanks God , everything is normal, the baby gender was confirmed as well. (we knew the gender from 13w but it was 80%) While checking the baby's face suddenly caught him smiling, Dr Ulrich captured that moment and gave us a nice colored pic. Yesterday we had appointment again with dr. and this time baby showed off his "treasure" :) Soo cute!!! we got this pic as well. Now we are hunting for a good baby album to keep all the records there , anyone can suggest where to get one? Our baby is very active - keeps on kicking, sometimes i can even see the kicks :) Reg the bathrooms issues - I have a spoon of milled flax seeds with glass of water every morning - it helps me a lot. <em>edited by Molu on 26/07/2012</em>

Thanks to all of you for replies. Looks like we r late for that NT scan... we are 16w now But when i was on my regular appointment on 13w5d i asked Dr to check the baby's neck and she said that it was normal. She had never mentioned any scan or blood tests. Yesterday i went to see another dr - Dr Ulrich from Wellcare and i think i am gonna stick to him. I liked him, he wasnt not in rush, asked me many questions and answered mine, unlike my previous dr, thou she is also good, but i always felt with her as if i am just another patient. Dr Ulrich told me that the next appointment he would do that special scan which they do at 18-23 weeks, which not covered by insurance and cost 1200 but might be reimbursed, not sure thou.. By the way I googled the Fetal Medicine Centre and on the website you may find all info on the scans they do ... so if interested read about it.
