I was exclusively breastfeeding my first and Af returned at 6 months, pregnant the month after. With the second AF returned at 8 months (breastfeeding and BLW). With the 3rd Af returned at 6 months (exclusively brestfeeding). It's not impossible. Fingers crossed for you! x

Congratulations. xx

Congratulations, a proper little cutie! x

After 3 attempts of induction my baby boy arrived at half 1 Sunday morning 1hr and 15 minutes after going into active labour weighing a massive 10lb 4oz. Brilliant birth experience, unassisted this time and with only gas and air. Xx

I am not on the list but I thought I'd let the overdue September Mummies know they're not the only ones, 5 days over and........... nada! x

My first two were both 8 and a half pounds and the feeling is that this one is going to be bigger! Will have very chubby cheeks if it is!

Fundal measurement isn't that accurate and they normally allow up to 2cm each way before they may ask questions. I have measured 3 or 4 weeks big from 30 weeks and never had a growth scan or anything. 24 weeks is normally the first time you're measured with your first pregnancy and you may find...

I can't get out of the bath......... I actually got stuck on the loo the other day and had to should my DH to help me up as my back went into spasm! It makes me laugh now but didn't at the time. Being pregnant is so pretty sometimes! Don't get me wrong it is totally worth it but an hours break...

I would really like baby to arrive now! I went to the supermarket for literally 10 minutes today and I was in agony, my pubic bone felt broken. I can't sleep as I can't get comfortable (back, pubic or hip pain) and when I do baby decides it isn't. No position I sit in is comfy, I either feel...

Didn't know that but did know the hormones can make them leak a bit of milk. Never happened with my two though. x

You don't sound like a moaner at all Traci, going to hospital on your own when you have access to a car sucks (did it for my first consultant appointment), so I'd be getting myself into a tiz if I was in your situation. I made my DH feel so guilty he took the day off for my GTT but if the powers...

I'd certainly hope to get that little bit extra if it was the same here.

Sounds like your hospital is on the ball DW, I got given a biscuit this time but the time before (different hospital) they just told me to go. My blood sugar was lower 2 hours after the glucose than it was after fasting so no wonder it made me feel awful.

They're not the nicest of things to put pregnant women through, my only advice is to make sure you take some food with you so you can eat straight after your 2nd lot of bloods. I didn't do this when tested in my last pregnancy and it knocked me for 6, I ate straight away this time and I felt...

Thanks ladies, both of my last 2 babies were 8 and a half pounds so the consultant just said "you have big babies". I think they end up more concerned when they think baby is measuring small. It's just frustrating when we feel we're being fobbed off. x
