Hi Ladies
Haven't posted in a while due to a few BP issues. Was in hospital last week - and they kept me overnight to get a 24 hour urine sample (which came back abnormal ) Doc has me on Hy po Tone and I'm monitoring my BP daily - feet is still swollen but she says that that is normal. I'm seeing her next week Thursday again (17/11) I'm just glad that she also checks up and if I have any questions I"m welcome to email her and she responds as soona s she can. She said that the Hypertension is not gestational but genetics (both my parents have it ) and also because of my age.
I've just played catch up and Congrats to all of you reaching the halfway mark - I'm so happy for you all!!!!
AFM - I'm 26 weeks now and next week I'll be in the Tri-3, baby is getting more and more active by the day. and I'm loving it. I'm getting some paint this weekend and then my father in law will be painting the cot - gonna stick with grey and white (but thinking that black and white is also an option) (Baby A is rooming with us - so once I've giving it sufficient time - we'll move the cot up to our room and get everything sorted there - I'm thinking of putting up a few murals in his little corner - still deciding though)
I have the pram and car seat - and got a few clothing items - but not much as I want to see what I get at my baby showers (my sis is organizing one for the end of Sep and work will be throwing a little party end of October - I go off roundabout the 10/11 (baby is due as of the 17/11).
Just a little heads up re Edgar's 2 pack receivers - they retail at R100 but I don't think that they are worth it - because they are so thin and are more like muslin cloths - i'm going to go have a look at what Woolies has.
That's it for me...and don't worry some days I dont' say anything but I do check up on you ladies.
