Our life with acute myeloid leukemia

Just a diary I'm keeping after we found out on 9th June 2010 (our baby's first birthday) that my other half has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer and how we get by (hopefully I'll be better with this than I am with a diary :giggle: )

Pregnancy reflection

Permanent Linkby 0_Lisa_0 on Tue Jan 01, 2019 8:50 pm

Ok so it's not really the end of my pregnancy just yet but I thought I best get this down before I run out of time. I'm how 34 +4 and I have to say other than clearly over doing some days this pregnancy hasn't been too bad. I had nausea in the beginning but no actual sickness and the pelvic pain from about 14 weeks was a real pain if I had a busy day but once I learned my limits it was much easier to cope. Overall it hasn't been too bad really.
I'm slightly afraid of what comes next. It's been so...

28 weeks with baby number 3

Birth Story: Holly Ann Taylor

Permanent Linkby 0_Lisa_0 on Fri Feb 24, 2012 4:05 pm

Holly Ann Taylor born 22.2.2012 @ 17.03 weighing 8lb 6oz, a natural drug free homebirth.

My contractions originally started on 21st at about 4pm, just as I was going to OH's parents for dinner, they were uncomfortable but bareable and by the time dinner was over they were starting to slow down though not easing so I just got on with my usual routine. They more or less disappeared over night so I got in to bed early and thought I best make the most of it as it was probably going to be my last decent...
