That sounds really good, I'll have a chat with the gp and see if there is anything else like that around that k could try.
I sometimes feel that doing nothing makes it worse too. It's so hard to know what to do for the best. I'm not too bad overnight (yet!!) it's just evenings once I start to slow down that it catches up with me.
Xxx

Hi all,

Sorry to hear that peoples works are being rubbish, mine is being stupidly accommodating, I'm a teacher and my risk assessment goes as far to say I should not use step ladders (well that's that lesson down the drain) and I'm not to lift pupils (who are aged 11-18 btw).

Back ache is setting in, and also past few nights have woken up with a super hard bump, like my uterus is a rock. It lasts about 30 seconds and then disappears, is it normal and if so what on earth causes it, I can't remember this happening in my last pregnancy.

bonlat, Thats braxton hicks! Ive been getting them aswell.
It didnt happen till tri 3 with my 1st.. But heard it happens earlier in future pregnancies.


LOL at no lifting teenage pupils ahaha! Xx

 

[bobkat]

BRAXTON HICKS! No way. Really? I'm only 19 weeks! Id rather not have that happening for another 20. I didn't get them at all last time. Doesn't mean anything bad getting them this soon does it?

Slightly freaking out now.

Noo nothing bad at all!!! I read up on it. I
Its actually been happening since about 7 weeks for everyone but we wouldnt feel it that early. Its just your uterus practising. Honestly nothing to worry about at all. And its very common to happen about this time for futher pregnancies xx

 

[bobkat]

Ok, thanks. I guess practice makes perfect!

I did think it might be them but thought nahhh cant be not this early. Pregnancy is full of surprises.

 

[babyslog]

It is indeed!!! Lol xx

I have my scan in the morning and I'm so worried that's somethings going to be wrong...I'm excited about finding out if we're pink or blue but can't shake the feeling that somethings gonna happen....I've just been comparing pics from my last pregnancy and I'm noticeably smaller even though my weight is about the same x

 

[Tigger87]

I think it's a totally natural worry Emma - this is the scan they check it's all developed correctly so there's good cause to be worried for it. I know I got worked up before my 20w last time and probably will again this time!! Have you always sailed to this point in your other pregnancies with no real worry?? Xx

 

[Eaw123]

Mines tomorrow afternoon Emma. I'm excited but slightly nervous too. Think it's just natural to feel anxious.

 

[Jojo84]

It's totally natural to feel anxious. I can feel baby wriggling away but still have a feeling of dread (my scan is Tuesday)

 

[babyslog]

Exciting that all the 20wk scans r coming up!

Yeah I've had 4 completely healthy pregnancies apart from emergency section with number 3 but that was purely because he was undetected breech.
The more babies I've had the more I've worried.

My scans at 10am so by he time we've done school run and had a coffee it will be time to head to the hospital x
