Entering the third trimester of pregnancy for a third time, I should feel happy, but I don't.
Since reading the blue lined results on the test, I suspected that this time things were different.
I've put weight on all over, I felt really poorly, totally the opposite to my previous two gestations.
We put it down to the baby finally being a girl. Or twins.
I had a scary moment a while back, routine test results showed the baby may have been Down's but on the second set of tests, everything was fine.
Immersing myself in preparations and being fussed over like a princess made me forget any niggles I had that something wasn't quite right.
And it isn't.
A week ago, I developed a itchy rash on my left nipple. Speaking to my Midwife, it was determined this was nothing to do with the pregnancy.
As it only appears on the one breast, eczema and other conditions (my bra irritating me) seemed unlikely.
Yesterday, I found a lump underneath the rash and nipple.
At the Doctors this morning, I knew exactly what she would say before my consultation had even started.
That feeling of 'difference' this time isn't the baby, it is me.
My mammogram is a week away, the earliest date available.
It could be nothing but my instinct is to fear the worse.
The overwhelming saddness that sweeps over me when I think something could be very wrong, and I may not be there to watch my children grow, crushes me.
Uber is like a cancer hang out of late, I know, but fucking hell, I had to get this off my chest.
My other half is all positive and smiley but I see his face crumpled with worry when he thinks I am not looking.
I don't feel I can talk to my friends, they'd only worry, they have their own lives, their own problems. And this may all be nothing.
For the first time in my 30 years of life, I am scared.
Shitless.

I am most certainly pregnant, the date I have is 24th Nov BUT my second was three weeks early, they totally messed up the dates, I knew all along I'd have hm before Xmas, though they were saying he was sue in new year.
The dates you are given you can go under or over significantly.
I go by my and midwifes dates, not scan dates. I feel I am ready any day.
If you must know, I also do that whole 'add a few weeks on so I don't seem so much of a porker' thing, especially for instance, the other day when I was at the petrol station and the till lady went 'oh goodness you are big, when are you due?' and I said 'oh, about 6, 8 weeks' and she had the nerve to say 'oooh you are massive already!'
Why do complete strangers think it is any of their business to comment on my bump size or even come up and touch it?
Anyway, sorry to disappoint all you wanna be detectives, really thought you were onto some great Uber scandal huh? Sadly, I am very pregnant and a few months back I did have a lumpy booby which turned out to be nothing. And if we must split hairs 'entering third trimester' could have been I was half way through my second and 'entering my third'. Who cares? Why should you?
Funny, that those who want to pass comment on this 'indescretion' are normally the ones who abuse me for already having two kids and having a *shock horror* third.
The only thing that DID happen was when I first commented I was newly pregnant on Uber it was actually a false alarm, but not many people (I thought) noticed anyway, only to find out about 5 weeks later I was pregnant!
If it feels long to you guys, try being me, you have no friggin' idea. Or worse still, think of my poor other half, he keeps telling me to 'pop it out' he is so tired of me moaning.
And if I wanted hits, people, I wouldn't make up a pregnancy or lumpy booby. I'd tell you about my first boyfriend who went on to 'accidentally' murder his next girlfriends baby daughter, then hang himself in prison. Or my eldest sons dad who drunkenly beat a man to death outside a nightclub, unprovoked, only to be (to my relief, he was a total bully) fatally stabbed by some Asian guy whilst in prison. Or how, at around seven months pregnant, my other half came home drunk and broke my nose (never seen so much blood). Despite my posh accent and big house and nice clothes, my life is white trash enough that the idea of making up a pregnancy or lumpy booby for the sake of 'hits' is frankly insulting.
I have decided on Ethan, by the way. After a character in my fave John Wayne film.
the end.

They were both fine. Mother's was back when I was in Jr High, wife's was a few years back. My grandmother died of it, but that's basically because the Catholic church of the day wouldn't let her get a masectomy. With the technology they have today, breast cancer's much easier to detect and treat.

Awwwwwwwwwwww, Orphie. Usually those things turn out to be nothing but scares though. My mom went through one, and my wife went through a couple. Plus it could always be worse. Suppose you had a haunted period, and it turned out to be crabs, and it turned out you were made of liquid mercury, as in the story and video by THIS creative fellow: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfqZxmY1Rgc?
---------------------------------
It was nothing, thanks, and realise how common stuff like that is. I hope your mum and wife were ok. It is scary though. Sat in the waiting room, counting ladies in attendence at the clinic, statisically, two of us would have cancer.

Ever stop to think that she may be depressed and feel unable to try to work, maybe she has low self esteem and doesn't feel work worthy. I have always worked, even when financially it would have been better that I didn't, but I am as tough as old boots. not everyone is. i remember a lady who used my sons creche for the coffee morning session. She was incredibly fat and didn't work but you could see she was terribly unhappy with herself andher situation. I think she didn't know or how to ask for help, she had no confidence in herself, her determination and will had all but gone.
Very rarely have i ever seen or met anyone who is TRULY happy to be on welfare etc.
AND WTF is it with bad mothing people who have kids by more than one man?? I noticed a few comments below were '3 kids by 3 different fathers'. Are you all real?? I have three kids by two different dads, the first is dead and the second guy i am still with. Does it make me less of a person? Is it ALWAYS the mothers fault that sometimes relationships break down and the man WALKS away??

Also, don't call me orph as a pet name. 'orph' gets terrily upset and has indeed emailed bart on several occasions. See, he doesn't really have much writing skill, bless him, and he is incredibly jealous of my astounding abilities and accomplished use of the english language. He does try, but he is nowhere near my level.

I've heard of a procedure to relieve the stress of pregnancy... something about sticking an eggbeater up the cunt. Remember, it's YOUR body... not some foetus'.
----------------------------
When I first told my other half about the pregnancy, he suggested acupuncture using a kniffing needle up my tuppence to help ease cramps, but it didn't do anything for me.
And I believe the technical term is not foetus but parasite.

The kind of breast cancer that's indicated by a rash is actually quite rare and usually malignant lumps are lymphatic swellings (read: around the edge, especially close to the armpit or clavicle). I'm going to have to agree with everyone who thinks it's retarded hormones and the lump is milk gland blockage/your boobs screaming that they're fucking sore and please bottle feed the next one.
Good luck
-----------------
that kinda worries me more. I think experima said something similar about pain but it is under my arm (my 'pit' lord, I hate that word) that I have experienced pain. However, I have a cold and it could just be achey swollen glands. I am not pregnant enough to be lactating yet and Midwife was certain it wasn't hormone related, though she said breasts get lumpier in pregnancy.
Lumps in the breast are usually quite gristley (ugh) this is a moveable ball, smooth, so I am hoping it is a cyst. I hope they pop it out and let me keep it in a jar.
One hell of a camwhore.
=================
Well, just keep in mind, though your midwife is a medical practitioner of sorts, she is only experienced with normal pregnancy, childbirth and post-partum. She's also supposed to be trained to recognize things that are outside the norm but she probably doesn't know much about the conditions other than that they aren't normal. Obstetricians are the ones who deal with pregnancy-related illness and they usually have a degree (with specialization in gynecology)
In either case, don't worry yourself for what could potentially be nothing, especially on the advice of someone who isn't a doctor. =) Love?
On that same note, I got bitten by a tick a couple weeks ago in a Lyme hotspot and was scared shitless I may have caught it. Luckily it turns out the little christer wasn't on me long enough to be able to transmit anything.

I'd have one boob, though I am most upset it is my favourite boob which is affected. Grant. The other is Phil.
I CAN see why you both see it like that. But here is the thing, and i know you won't understand or agree but this is my warped logic - what you posted about could have been avoided but like you say, we all make mistakes. It is mainly what you spoke about, to me, is far more sacred (for want of a better word) than this shit. I find it really hard to explain, but it was just too personal.
I nearly put 'email me' at the end of my reviews because there was something I wanted to say, too personal, that I felt I couldn't put on Uber but I left it.
Also, understand, that spookily, at that very same time, it looked like I may have to consider whether to keep my pregnancy or not as I had just recieved my Down's results, I even mentioned it on your post and put 'terminated by prostagladin' which I would have had to do if I chose to not keep a disabled baby (I regretted putting that as soon as I typed it but, maybe like yours, my head was a mess).
So yeah, I can kinda admit to being somewhat hypocritical, but there are some things I have been through I wouldn't post on Uber and haven't, far worse than my lumpy, scabby boob. I am sorry I wasn't supportive and came across small minded, that wasn't my intention.

Firstly, there was no moaning, I am fully aware of the choices I made, I am also aware that people disagree, but like corn nugget pointed out before - and what i was pointing out - you said quite clearly on my post that uber was the wrong place to post personal stuff of this calibre. That's all. No less.
I'm not trying to be mean, I hope you don't lose your tits, I hope you don't have to suffer through any kind of cancer treatment. Just a little perspective on your side is all that's needed.
Plus, posting on uber doesnt necesarrily mean you are inciting opinion, maybe that works for you or rob berg, hence why i didn't make any comments about anything on my post.
I do feel for you, how could there be any lesbian love trysts without any boobs?

I just got word it will be a mammogram. There is supposedly no (little) risk to baby, but I will worry anyway. Do you think they would put me through that for 'bullshit', especially when an ultrasound is totally safe.
Also, why on earth MY opinion bothered you so much is beyond me.

Fact is hun, corn nugget had an excellent point, plus, I never commented back to you on my own post about the 'abortion' for a reason - you came across as small minded, guess it must be easy for you living in 'never made a mistake land' It sucks that you might be dealing with that cancer bullshit - guess you finally realise that sometimes it's easier to put your sob story out there anonymously. Think about that next time you're mentally capable enough to judge other people.
------------------------------
Hmmm.
I never said on your post that I was anti abortion, I said I understood the reason you posted was probably cathartic and I actually wished you well and meant it. Until you are in that situation, you don't know what you will do. Also, I think my own condition at the time made me feel sad for you.
My problem wasn't that it was a personal post, I have read many 'personal' posts and do not have a problem. It was the subject - I thought you cheapened it, I didn't like the tone, and personally, if it had been me, I'd have kept it to myself. That is my opinion.
By posting on this site you invited comment and rating, good and bad. Now why you keep on moaning, weeks later, just because I didn't agree with what you did (the post) is ridiculous.
I do not know why I have to keep defending my opinion when you asked for it. I never said I was right in my opinion.
Small minded for simply not agreeing with the post is too strong. I never once judged you on the actual choice, I think everyone is entitled to an opinion, even those crazy right wingers.
This isn't a sob story. I just wanted to tell someone I am scared. I have been pregnant twice before this and have never had this rash, lump or arm pit ache. I do hope you are right and it is all 'bullshit' (was that a lame attempt to insult me?) because nothing would make me happier. Until you have children absolutely dependent on you though, I'd keep quiet. yeah, it could all be nothing, but it was enough to get a mammogram or ultrasound. And since members of my family have died from it and there is a tiny chance something could be wrong, I will be worried.
Posting on here was a last resort. I am not telling anyone my worries, my family rely on me to look after them and to be strong. That isn't ever going to change.
I am delighted I am pregnant, and also the idea that something threatens the baby inside me terrifies me.
I hardly think your few months of pregnancy qualifies you to say it is 'bullshit', I think I will stick with the advice of the medical professionals, thanks. Every pregnancy is different.
I never judged you Toe, I just didn't like your post. Maybe if it had been a fictional story I'd have still hated it. Deal with it please or go away. Thanks.

Hopefully it's just a hormonal thing. Pregnancy can do some pretty funky things to your body. The worst is waiting for the appointment.
My mom passed away a week ago from breast cancer. She fought for her life for the last 3 years. If you assholes think that is was a fun thing for her to endure, and her family watch, nada. Now you make jokes about it...well, I guess karma is the only word I can think of right now.
Enjoy. I hope your already tiny balls shrivel up into peanut size.
Grow up.

You hit the nail on the head there, not knowing is terrible as I can't be constructive either way.
I am certain it is nothing.
Sorry about your mum. I had relatives an family friends pass away from cancer and knowing the end will come doesn't make it easier when eventually does happen, nothing can prepare you.
The pain doesn't get better, like people say, you just find better ways to cope with it.
Just look after yourself, and check regularly.

The kind of breast cancer that's indicated by a rash is actually quite rare and usually malignant lumps are lymphatic swellings (read: around the edge, especially close to the armpit or clavicle). I'm going to have to agree with everyone who thinks it's retarded hormones and the lump is milk gland blockage/your boobs screaming that they're fucking sore and please bottle feed the next one.
Good luck
-----------------
that kinda worries me more. I think experima said something similar about pain but it is under my arm (my 'pit' lord, I hate that word) that I have experienced pain. However, I have a cold and it could just be achey swollen glands. I am not pregnant enough to be lactating yet and Midwife was certain it wasn't hormone related, though she said breasts get lumpier in pregnancy.
Lumps in the breast are usually quite gristley (ugh) this is a moveable ball, smooth, so I am hoping it is a cyst. I hope they pop it out and let me keep it in a jar.
One hell of a camwhore.

Yes, maybe 'ashamed' was the wrong word but I can't articulate myself properly sometimes.
I'd want to keep it secret for it is so intimate, and I know peoples attitudes towards it can be frightfully right wing (?) and like I said, spreading word cheapens the whole thing? I don't know, too hard to put into words. But I'd also be embarrassed slightly. Nothing to do with maturity, just a mixture of the way I have been bought up and my own personal opinion. It is all subjective, I ain't saying I am definitively right.

I've thought about children, and having them, and for many reasons decided against it. Not even for the reasons I've been telling you, I really just hate kids, and I'm entering a dangerous field of work which I'm already feeling guilty about due to my fiancee's constant worrying. A kid would just add to that.
I guess you can have a third kid as long as your government kills enough foreigners to compensate. And make sure one of em invents some sort of mass producible synthetically created water/food stuff.

I can't wait to have babies. And mostly, my upbringing was great, if a bit too strict- but my dad's soft ways offset my mom's stricter nature. My parents worked very hard to raise us the best way they knew how and were very involved in my life and they made sure I had a loving environment with lots of activity, I definitely don't mean to imply otherwise. I just really hated that homework right after school rule!

My comment was probably more just catharsis for myself- you sound like a very interested and involved parent and that's something a lot of kids unfortunately never have.

That is sad. I think a childhood should be filled with activity, sunshine and laughter.
Oh, I am not that good. When they get home, I ignore them and order them to fetch me things whilst I slob on the sofa, eating toffees.

I am a pushy mum. They have after school lessons after school.
===
I'm probably exagerrating in my interpretation of this comment, but my mom was 'pushy' too. I was one of the best students in grade school, in the gifted program, and was president of student council. She ordered me fucking summer homework from somewhere so my brain woudn't rot while on vacation. I did all the read/mathathons, anything that was academic and extracurricular. I had to do my homework as soon as I got home every day. You know where it got me? The minute I changed to public shool for high school, I had a scholastic meltdown and gave up. I didn't learn or perform well to better myself so much as I did just so that I wouldn't get the wrath of mom. I loved her and I know she thought she was doing the right thing, but making me sit down and study anything after I'd been sitting in a classroom for 8 hours was considered cruel and unusual to me. Fresh air would have done me much better. *end rant*
--------------------------------
The extra curricular stuff they do is there choice and mostly fun stuff, like swimming, basketball, football, art club and guitar (my 8 year old loves his guitar and chooses to practice for ages when he gets home anyway rather than stare at his PS).
Some of the stuff I attend too. A lot is outdoors.
No summer school, though my 8 year old does choose to go to Football school during the 6 week holiday.
Maybe not pushy, but I encourage them to take an interest in hobbies. I live just on the edge of Sherwood forst and the area is crime ridden.
It is very easy to fall into the 'wrong' crowd and if I can keep them entertained while meeting like minded kids and parents all is good.
My parents never encouraged me to take up a hobby or practice a talent and I find myself terribly dull company because of this.

You do have a problem. you are mouthing off at one mother, probably the first person ever to have paid attention to your cockeyed theories. You are not going to change the world by doing this so why not shut the fuck up?
The second part of your first review (something along the lines of 'if you are so worried about your lump, lop off your tit') demonstrates your evidentally very limited intellect.
Food won't run out in this generation, or indeed the next. Your point of view is very warped it is the same as saying 'how can you bring humans into the world when there are countries with no clean water or food'.
It is a lame assed argument and it tickles me you are so riled up.
Now, unless you are an only child, like I said before before, toddle off to mummy and tell her what a disgrace she is to human kind.
Then, switch off your energy draining PC, jump in your petrol guzzling car, go home to the house on an that was built onto of green pastures, flick on the airconditioning and SHUT THE FUCK UP MORON.

They will starve because only so much food can be made at one time, and we are rapidly reaching the max. It has been reached in some parts of the world. And this next generation won't be solving any of our problems. They will be even bigger pussies than my generation, who regularly raise my blood pressure to unsafe levels.
It would defy logic if a bunch of lazy, self centered, poorly educated slobs raised a generation that could fix the heap of problems we've created. And since most the people I've met fit into that description, any attempts of smart people trying to out breed them will fail utterly.
The one child policy might have its flaws (the younger generation having to support the older one which is many times it's own size), but the solutions to that set of problems are far more manageable compared to overpopulation's.

Of course you're not responsible, and I didn't mean to imply that at all. They are incredibly seperate and different situations.
My point is that you had a hard time understanding WHY she would post something so personal on uber, and now I suppose you know?
And I am sorry you're going through this. It must be very hard to keep your wits about you in such a situation. I do hope everything goes well.

I guess, it wasn't that it was personal so much as if it was me in her situation, I might have felt too ashamed to tell anyone.

Of course you're not responsible, and I didn't mean to imply that at all. They are incredibly seperate and different situations.
My point is that you had a hard time understanding WHY she would post something so personal on uber, and now I suppose you know?
And I am sorry you're going through this. It must be very hard to keep your wits about you in such a situation. I do hope everything goes well.

You may have seen this: http://www.webmd.com/breast-cancer/benign-breast-lumps
Over the last 40 years my wife has had six breast lumps discovered. She had a biopsy done for every one, and they were all benign. Don't panic until you know for sure. Most of the bad things we worry about in life never come to pass. Good luck.

I sincerely wish you all the best chick, you seem like a very nice person and bad things shouldn't happen to very nice people, karma will see you right. My mum had a dodgy nipple not so long ago resulting in the big cancer scare and the doc made her go for a mammogram. Turns out her nipple had sort of dislocated itself from the gland and there wasn't anything to worry about.

I WOULD be worried about a dislocated nipple. Well not so much if my nipple was dislocated, because, to be honest I don't care much about my nipples but I would be a bit repulsed to see a nipple just sort of drift around.

Don't be frightened, despite what they say on the news we have the best medical care in the world. You are in good hands my dear whatever the outcome and if they don't treat you right give me a call, I'll give you my private healthcare policy number, you can pretend to be me and get BUPA to sort you out. Unless you've already got it in which case don't worry about it :)

those down syndrome tests are a fucking joke. Scare tactics to make you hit up the specialist and pay more money for shit you do not need.
If your baby had been positive, which in my babies case was a 1 in 170-180 chance, would things have changed for you? Would you have terminated the pregnancy?
Sorry about the bump and all but this line made me giggle a bit: "Uber is like a cancer hang out of late, I know, but fucking hell, I had to get this off my chest." Choice words. I hope I don't get the cancroid-carcinogenic-carcinomatous-malignant-sarcomatous-terminal-SusanG.Komen-JimmyVness for laughing.
Oh, and for a laugh just think of farts. Works for me I hope it can work for you.

My bro is Down's. He was made to attend mainstream school and has a ragular job. He has his own wing of my folks house.
I witnessed the shit they went through to give him the kind of life he has.
They also have substantial wealth to support him. Sometimes love isn't everything.

Orphelia-
I hate when people say 'I know how you feel' when they clearly have no idea.
But I do, to some degree. It was just about 3 weeks ago that I received my first callback on a mammogram. My mother and her mother died of breast cancer, so I've been sort of fatalistically waiting for some shoe to drop since I was a teenager.
I was called on a Thursday, and had to wait 6 days for an appointment. I was quite literally sick with fear. I was retested, and I am fine.
Breathe deep. Distract yourself as much as possible. There are other possible explanations for what you are experiencing. My thoughts are with you.
------------------
I am glad you are fine.
It is the not knowing which is the worse thing, and I am such a worrier.
All three of my dad's aunts had breast cancer, two of them died as a direct result of the disease.
My mum also had a lump removed in her twenties, but I think that was ok.
I did think about mastitis, but I am not swollen and feel totally fine. I have a sore arm pit but I have a cold, so it could be just my glands?
I dare not google it. Not this time. I googled my stomach ache (a simple 24 hour bug) in Feb and I swore blind I had gall stones. I didn't.
I am glad you are ok though.

orphelia,
sudden itchy rashes with lumps under nipples sound like milk gland changes or cyst-y swellings due to hormonal overload. cancer is accompanied by unexplained discharge and an 'orange peel' thick texture and darkening of the skin over the breast, and it happens more gradually than what you describe. So think about these things and maybe it will help you get through it a bit easier, because worrying doesn't change a thing and it could just be an itchy bugger of a rash or a blocked-up gland.
the reason i'm telling you all this is because i know from personal experience that when you're scared you really really want to hear some facts, especially facts that help you relax a little.
take deep breaths from your belly.
and before anyone rips me apart i know there are other symptoms and everyone's different but the orange peel symptom is one of the most common, and it's not a rash nor does it happen overnight.
<3
---------------------
I have had other symptoms for a while, but I guess I didn't want to go into that much detail.
Facts is exactly what I want and I do feel generally happier regarding everyones comments.

WOW you sure came to the right place for sympathy and great advice....
I have sympathy. Tempered with a cynical comment...Stop having kids now!! I'm all for creating more white people but three is plenty for one woman to handle.
My great advice is; It's probably an infected booby. Cancer usually hits when you are about to enjoy life for the first time in years. Example: People in prison never get cancer until they get parolled.
hang in there

Also, I'll tell you that as tempted as you might be to start googling and self-diagnosing, it might only serve to worry you. But your symptoms sound like it could very well be mastititis, which is an infection usually related to breast feeding. Some symptoms are:
Breast tenderness or warmth to the touch
General malaise or feeling ill
Swelling of the breast
Pain or a burning sensation continuously or while breast-feeding
Skin redness, often in a wedge-shaped pattern
Fever of 101 F (38.3 C) or greater
Although mastitis usually occurs in the first several weeks of nursing, it can happen any time during breast-feeding. Mastitis tends to affect only one breast — not both breasts.
It's treatable with antibiotics.

my friends dad had a gas tank for his old bike that had two fiberglass breasts molded onto it. painted it a nice fleshtone colour. even gave it a nice butterfly tattoo. his wife was a monster. giant cross eyed german woman with a hunch back. i guess she would have eaten him if he fucked a real woman so he satisfied himself with that thing.
the nipples they painted on it were horrid. some sort of purplish maroon hue.

Oh Orphelia, please don't worry until the doc tells you you have a right to. You're pregnant and its more than likely its something to do with your milky glands rather than cancer. It may just be an infection or a little cyst or something.
Chin up hun, you'll be fine and in no time you'll have another baby to fuss over and the 9 months will probably again feel worth it.
I don't envy you the mammagram though, mucho titty squashing.
