I wish I had some appointments lined up to start this post with but due to what happened at St Thomas' I don't now :( Except my next appointment to see Dr Hunt at St Thomas'
22nd September 30 days
Lets Start with what happened at St Thomas' : The upshot is she is not happy :( Dr Hunt my consultant has decided to increase my claxine dose from 4 to 6 the needles are twice the size now :( will try and get a pic to show you. The reason she has decided to do this is coz my babies are too small Caite was 5lb 4oz using 4 of claxine until i was approx 28 weeks Caitie decided to stop growing at 32 weeks and was born at 36 weeks, she wants me to grow a bigger baby. Georgie was only 4lb 11oz at 37 weeks without claxine and my biggest baby was Bradley born at 40+5 6lb 7 1/2oz again without the claxine. She also wants me to continue with the claxine till the end and possibly for 6 weeks after. She has also now labled me as very high risk :( when I had Caitie it took over 45 mins from the 1st cut to getting her out of me, I was told at the time this was cos I was "butchered" from Georgie's section. She told me that I had something called placenta accresha (sp) My bladder was attached to my womb, from what I have read online the last few days it's scarey and extreamly dangerous. Pipkin will be my last baby. I can't go through this again. I just want a normal pregnany and to be able to enjoy it without being scared. She is also re-booking me for St Thomas' now so I have to wait for a booking appointment with their team of midwives and ob's
When I had my booking at the local hospital the midwive told us that it was doubtful I would be allowed to go pass 38 weeks due to my history so it works out although Pipkin is due 10th April I will be 38 weeks on 27th March so it will prob be somewhere around there.
I had the follow up scan yesterday at the local hospital and saw Pipkin!! and his heartbeating away :) that made me so happy. Pipkin is mesuring right for my dates so I am now 7+1 :)

center>It was amazing and a relief to see pipkin on the scan stu had a silly grin on his face and was asking lots of questions bless him. The kids were fasinated by it all. Caitie now keeps asking if I'm ok and is the baby in your tummy being good mummy lol. Bradders kisses my tummy goodnight and says he can't wait to be a big brother again, as long as it's a boy mum lmao.I am really fed up of constantly being sick, everytime I eat I am sick, it's making me feel really weak. Finally gave in and spoke to my GP who has gien me anti sickness tablets - not that they are doing much good :(

Sorry that you have such a tough and scary time but glad that 'she' is looking good. I know yo were worried and seeing her beating heart must have been wonderful.
Keeping you all in my prayers. (And I want to know any names you have chosen for her?)
