Oh dear …
… another 2 weeks … no chance of remembering really.
Lots of work booky type work (science, phonics, handwriting) & Study Dog. C has been drawing away & has got very good at the games on S’s phone
Lots of socialising.
Computer games.
Reading Harry Potter (she is really enjoying it).
Gardening (thanks Ady!).
Bloody library was shut today too.
Still feeling cruddy.
C is off with my mum for most of the week next week to visit her great Grandma - I’ll be clearing & reorganisng her room (& the loft).
Appointment today was actually helpful
BW calculated that my obstetric history puts me in a rarified group of about 1 in 800,000 women - nice to be special I don’t think. Both recurrent loss panels that I’ve had done in this pregnancy have come back normal, she wants me to come off everything except aspirin which she recommended I increase to 150mg/day. Not likely
I’ve agreed to stop the metformin, progesterone & steroids IF the next scan is okay. I will increase the aspirin - she says it helps with the second phase of placental infiltration that comes at the end of the second tri (hahahahaha) but I’m staying on clexane. I’m convinced the dex & pred have been important - I haven’t had IVIg but my NKs are low (<9% and all the CDs are great), I think the flares last time were due to my astronomical oestradiol levels & maybe I just do better on steroids than IVIg.
She agrees the high risk OB is probably the way to go and if I make it through the next scan the issues to discuss are clefting (from the steroids), placental insufficiency & IUGR, pre eclampsia and my cervix & PROM. Not much to worry about really.
Life is … good





Enjoyed the socialising
