Kirstie 23/11/05

My friend Kirstie had her baby this morning.
Abi was born at 11.45am weighing 6lb 7oz. I have had a cuddle already and she is so gorgeous and perfect!
Wishing Kirstie all the best for the next few days for a speedy recovery.

22/11/05 - Midwife

Hi all,
I have just got back from my midwife appointment. All went very well so I don't have alot to say, my kidney infection has cleared up nicely.
My blood pressure is still slightly low, but they prefer this to it being high. My iron levels have dropped slightly but not enough to worry about needing to be on Iron supplements - yay!
We heard the babies heart beat which is just so amazing it gets me everytime! The baby is a good size - actually measuring a week ahead of my dates!!
I don't have to go back for 2 weeks! I'm seeing the anethatist (spl) tomorrow. I will of course let you know how i get on.
Hope you're all well
Lots of love
me xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Bad News 18/11/05

Hi all,
Well I went to bed early last night all excited for my baby shower that was meant to be today 18/11/05. I fell asleep quickly as I had had a long day. I heard talking but I was in such a deep sleep I really didn't pay any attention, the next thing I knew mum had come in my room and turned the light on and came over - i'd slept through the phone ringing, steve's (my step dad) mum had phoned and his dad had suddenly passed away! So mum and steve were driving to Kent to go and be with his mum - who as you an imagine was in a state.
Mum told me to stay at home - but after being woken up and told something like that I couldn't go back to sleep. I was on the phone to Ed as I was worried that this could send me into premature labour!
Luckily he calmed me down and I watched Look who's talking too!
Mum and Steve got back with steve's mum Margaret at about 04.50am and I was wide awake again until about 06.30am this morning sorting things out.
It is very stressful around here at the moment as there is so much to sort out - all that we have been through already in may this year when dad died!
I have cancelled my baby shower this evening in respect - as none of us are really in the mood for celebrating the baby with this sad news.
Margaret is going to be staying with us for a while as understandably she doesn't want to be in the house on her own. That was where she came in and found him last night when she had gone out for an hour.

But on another note apart from being totally shocked baby bump and I are doing fine - a little tired as not alot of sleep was had last night. I just wanted to update everyone to let them know what was going on.
It will also take the hassle out of me having to go through it with everyone.
Thanks for reading

08/11/05 - Midwife

Morning all!
Just got back from my midwife appointment. It was at 8:50am! How stupid is that!!!
Anyway they have said I now have a urine infection (just to add to things)
They are now sending a urine sample off to get cultured before they blind treat me with more anti-biotics!
I have to also have blood tests to check if i'm anemic (spl)
I'm now 30 weeks so its getting really exciting! I have my baby shower on the 18th November (mums frantically trying to sort everything out)
The baby is doing really well, heard the heartbeat this morning and it's so strong now.
Think thats it for now, I'll update you again soon.
