Stressing!!!

Well this isn't a quilting or sewing post. Ad has just taken Madi of to the after hours clinic to see a Dr. She was complaining of a head ache near her temple at about 5ish, gave her panadol & she ended up going to sleep on me at about 6:30pm after complaining that her ear was sore, she woke up & has been screaming & VERY upset, pulling at her ear & seams to be in alot of pain.
I just so hope that she is OK, I hate not being able to be there with her, but I am not very good/confident driving at night, I get sleepy!!!

So now I just have to sit here, with Bray in bed sleeping soundly & pray that she is ok!!

Another Sneak Peak

Well the DQS is done, I just have to finish hand stitching the binding down & it is ready to go!! So here are a couple more criptic pic's, I have to be careful how much I show, or else it will give away the whole quilt. So enjoy :)

Not much else happening here at the moment, we have my niece who is 5 nearly 6 years olds staying with us for a few nights so that will be fun. Already tonight both girls have gotten up & been to the toilet about 3 times each!! Coming from Madi who NEVER gets out of bed at night! Oh well the joys of it, it will be a couple of busy days!!

EB DQS Update

Ok onto something a bit more cheery!!

I finished my EB DQS top today, woo hoo, doing a happy dance!! Here is a sneak peak:

I have never been part of a swap before, so I am just praying that my partner likes it & that it is up to there standard! I must say I am my own worse enemy at times! It is the first time that I have hand appliqued so I hope it looks alright!!

Anyway better be of, Ad has a movie ready for us to watch as there is CRAP on tv tonight! I am not in the footy at all!!

So until next time, take care :)

I'M LATE I KNOW I KNOW!!!

Ok so I was meant to update yesterday with results & I didn't get around to it, I'm SORRY!!!

Ok, scan looks good for this stage, 51/2weeks, can't really see much as it is so early, everything is where it should so I am booked in for another scan in 2 weeks, I will be 7 1/2 weeks my dates then so keeping everything crossed!!

Blood test was also good, Nicole (my Fertility Specialist) was really happy with then, my HCG levels are continuing to rise nicely & so is my progesterone (spelling??) so will have another blood test done next week as well & fingers crossed they are still going up!!

So at the moment everything is looking good, just have to wait out the next 2 weeks & see what happens, this is going to be a REALLY long 2 weeks!!

Pregnancy Update

Well I am 5weeks & 5 days today, I am of for a scan at 11am this morning & another blood test this afternoon, I started to spot yesterday, just in the morning. I have also spotted again this morning, more then yesterday. I really don't have high hopes for this little one.

I am just over it, I so want to have a large family yet have already had 7 pregnancies; 2 live children & 5 miscarriages, this one will take it total of 8 pregnancies with 6 miscarriages!

I am trying to stay positive, I had spotting with Bray from about 5weeks-10weeks so I keep thinking that hopefully that is all it is again, but I can't, I can't give myself false hope, I really think that this is all going to end badly.

To top it of, Ad doesn't think that at this stage he wants to try again, I am just so torn, I don't really want to have to go thru it all again, but at the same time I am not ready to give up just yet either!

AHHHHHHH this is all to hard!!

I will update when I have all my results, so probably want be until late tomorrow afternoon.

Quilting

I wish I was one of those people who think up some sort of witty title!!

Anyway, there hasn't been a great deal of "completed" projects happening here at the moment.
However I have completed a Dora raggy quilt for Madi, we found some Dora flannel at Spotlight for $3 a mt! I never buy licenced material as it is always to expensive, however I couldn't say no to $3 a mt!!

I have finished the Christmas quilt top for MIL, just need to sandwich/quilt/bind now, HAHAHA that won't happen for a bit, I still haven't done that to mum's quilt yet & it is her b'day next month!! Oh well I will get there.

I have finished hand appliquing a block for the EB DQS that I am doing, I just hope that my partner is nice, I have never hand appliqued before so I am bit scared that it won't be up to there standard! (insert nail biting emoticon!!), will see how I go I might do a sneak peak at some stage....

Long Time Between Posts!

Well I do have to apologise for it being so long between posts. I feel like I haven't stopped in the last couple of weeks!

Our house went on the market nearly 2 weeks ago now, it is a bit nerve racking selling it, mainly the questions, is someone going to like it enough to want to buy it, are we doing the right thing by selling,have we put a realistic figure on it! It is doing my head in at the moment! So I have decided that we can't change anything it is done, if is for sale & we ARE DOING THE RIGHT THING, for our family.

I also found out 2 weeks ago that I am pregnant again, so we are now up to pregnancy #8, hoping & praying for it to be our 3rd born child, I am now 5weeks & 3ish days pregnant, I am just counting down the days until I make it past 7 weeks, that is when I have lost the others. I am currently having weekly blood tests with my Fertility specialist & also weekly blood tests with my GP so I am having 2-3 blood tests done a week, I also have a scan book for Wednesday, I will only be 5weeks & 5days, so I am not expecting to see much, the lady that does the scans where I go leaves on Friday for a holiday for 1 week I think so that was the only time I could get in, I will also be having another scan done at just over 7 weeks & then maybe at 8 & 9 weeks, will depend when I can get an appointment with my OB at the hospital.

Man that was a whole lot of dribble!!!

I am going to end this post here & will do another one with what sewing & quilting I have been up to lately, all be it not much!!
