Boo...More bad news. Looks like I have carpal tunnel syndrome in my knuckles and wrists. Apparently from extra fluids in my system at the moment. So not really allowed on here or to type. I'm having some splints sorted out at my next appointment on Friday to help ease the pain a little and get them sorted out.
This is all becoming a bit of a joke now.
But sorry folks, I won't be around much again.
Hope everyone is well.

Hey,
I am so sorry to hear that! You just cannot win, huh? Will the carpal tunnel go away or ease off once the baby is born?
Don't worry about here, just take care of yourself and that munchkin.
Hugs

Ike, you may not be wrong in that only child prediction. Never rains but it pours, eh? Ah well. Bring it on. I can take it now.
It should go away after pregnancy, either on it's own after a week or 2 or I can have a small procedure to get rid of it. They've been hurting for a week or so now, but I thought maybe I was sleeping funny, but no. Last night I dropped a full glass of juice on a cream rug and then was ordered to call the midwife today as Steph was scrubbing the floor.
And don't worry, I've had my hands soaking in warm water for a bit so they aren't too bad at the mo, hence my typing!

I've been wondering where you were It won't be long now Em...soon youll be telling another pregnant woman what you went through.
I swear Em, it's worth it. What you're going through will seem like nothing when you see your baby.
Aaah....when you hear that first cry, it's like angels are singing. I promise you, this is worth it. Im crying thinking about when I gave birth to my daughter, and I didn't have any easy time either...but I heard her...then couldn't keep my eyes or hands off of her...the miracle that I experienced. It's a very vivid memory, and the closest to heaven I've ever felt.
You will keep looking at your baby and thinkin "I cant believe I did this" this little person grew inside my body...you'll see. All the best Em.

Still alive. Have been reading posts, but hands are sometimes too stiff to type.
On plus side, Stephen has booked us on a long weekend to Budapest for our 1st anniversary/1st little family holiday as we've had a fairly rough 1st year of marriage and think we deserve it. How exciting! Travelling with a 3 month old will be tough, but as long as we're prepared we should be all fine. Nice to have something to look forward to though, as well as the end of this very arduous journey...

Good for you Em! Thats very exciting! You will love to take your baby with you. By three mos. you'll be a pro by then with being a mom.
I went away for a holiday when my daughter was about 7mos old, it was only for a weekend. But, I kept thinking my daughter was with me, looking for her, sitting up looking around.
My exhusband and I did nothing but talk about her for the first day and a half...it took me that long to get out of "mommy mode" by the time I relaxed it was time to go back. I wished she was with me the whole time!
I think that's terrific Good on you Em! I know your hands hurt like hell. I have the same thing. I did nails for alot of years. Holding a file for up to 12 hrs a day with my hands in awkard positions really did a number on them..When I cut hair, sometimes my hand just goes into a spasm, my fingers curl and lock... So take it easy soak them and not too much typing!!
I know you are so tired of being told to sit down, rest etc...but it well worth it...and it's only because you are so loved that we all say this to you.
