TTC for number 2

[Donna and aiden]

Thank you all, Married life is great....just the same as it was before we were married just with rings on our fingers....lol

Cant believe its Aiden's second christmas already, time has flown by, I can remember so clearly when i was in hospital with him for 16 wks, now it seems such a long time ago, and how much Aiden has changed, from being a tiny 2lb 70z, to and whopping 27 lb bouncy baby boy, He still is not crawling or walking, but he shuffles everywhere on his butt....looks so funny bless him.

Congratualtions on geting married and on ttc no2!!

You had pre-eclampcia didnt you with aiden, ive had it with both of mine they will look after you even more, i had weekly appointments from 26weeks (when my problems seem to start) then 3+ times a weel from 30weeks lol if i wasnt being seen at the docs i was at hospital either on day assesment or actually admitted loads of fun!!

bless aiden hes still only what 13months ish correct?? sounds like hes doing fine.xx

[Donna and aiden]

Thanks, Thats what the HV and docyor have said that they will monitor me more closely, I suffered severe PE and Hellp syndrome, and ended up in ICU for 4 days, Aiden was born at 28wks by c-section.
They said if he has stayed in any longer we both could of died.

Hey ho, its in the past they keep telling me and to look forward to the future and what is now and will be, not keep dwelling on the past, I do find it hard as I feel so cheated out on what a first time mummy should of had, I never got it, but I am hoping that with the next pregnancy I might get to go all the way this time.

Lots of baby dust coming your way hun.

I had DD1 at 24 weeks, by emergency C-section, as I had Pre-eclampsia and nearly died. So I missed out on certain things first time round. Louise was in Neo-natal unit for 4 months.

DD2 went full term and like you said, the ante-natal clinic kept a closer eye on me and I was given aspirin for a few weeks to thin my blood as a precaution.

Although when I had DD2, the midwifes automatically assumed that I would know how to BF as this was my 2nd child and didn't know my history, so they basically left me to it and I was in tears most of the time. DD wouldn't feed properly, so in the end I had to put her on bottles, otherwise they wouldn't let me go home. Trouble is as well, Good Hope Hospital are very "anti-bottle feeding".

When I asked if someone could give me some help, one of the mv actually said "well this is your 2nd child, so you should know what to do".

Sorry to hijack your thread and ramble on but I found the whole thing quite stressful.

[Donna and aiden]

Hiya all, sorry I have not been on for such a long time.

Hope everyone is doing ok, Well just an update really, 5 wks ago I found out we were gonna have a bubba, only for it to be short lived, at 8 wks I suffered a miscarriage, the doctor at the hospital said Ithere was no reason why it should of happened, it was just one of those things, so we are no activly TTC again.

Here's hoping it wont be long until we get another BFP.
