Hi Ladies,
I've just been quickly scanning through it seems like its been a rough time still for some of you ladies. Chin up things will improve there is always a silver lining.
Quick update on my part - Moved into my flat last Wednesday... although been spending a lot of time at mums because the heating isn't working properly -.- it's not too cold so i've been going back at night time but my days... going from gas central heating at mums to electric storage heaters has been a nightmare! They aren't working only the convection ones in the bedroom and they are just eating at my electricity bill so far £15 in a week! Waiting for the landlord to sort it out but they said i am on their urgent list and it will take upto 5 days.
Topping that i managed to fall backwards through a glass TV stand (No cuts Arya is still moving beautifully just a bruised arm and rib)
Trapped my finger in the join of a interior fire door -.- not broken apparently thats very lucky
And i am missing having a cat to cuddle in bed but i've just paid out a fortune for appliances so i can't afford to get myself and baby a kitty to keep us company just yet.
Otherwise apart from the shoddy lincolnshire weather it's been quite nice

I feel so stretched!! I don't know how our bodies are even capable of this, it's fascinating!
Jenni, what did the midwife say?? Hope you're ok hun
Sounds like we've got lots of tired mummies in here. I'm pleased it's not just me! Just over 3 weeks left at work for me and then I can relax. Not that I'll manage to do that, i'll end up nesting for 6 weeks before baby arrives! Can't believe how close we're all getting now

Glad to see I'm not the only one with bump ache! Assume it's something that's common? Mine seems to ache more when I'm lying down and I struggle to get comfy even with support pillows etc! Plus I have leg cramps too from the extra weight, so am now just thinking I won't have a decent sleep for like 10 years lol xx

Oh we're all suffering together! I think I had my first Brixton hicks the other day whilst shopping! Not comfy at all!! Go on maternity leave in 17 days and I cannot wait, really need it, very lethargic, got my WC tomorrow morning. Can't believe we're all on the home stretch now!! Xx

Holy crap! You're bloody right! It's highly plausible some of us could have babies next month!
2 years ago today I went into hospital to have my little boy! Scary!
I also went to see midwife today who informed me that my ligament pain may be due to baby being breech so when baby kicks it's kicking my public bone! Also he midwife I saw was the one who I dealt with in hospital after having like which was lovely!
I have my sons 2 year check tomorrow and also I've booked in for my whooping cough jab (had to reschedule as my uncles funeral is the same day)
Hope you're ok Jenni, sounds a bit scary, hope you got some answers from the mw.
I've been feeling it too past couple of days ladies, having loads of BH. Think I might have just overdone it though, went for a walk in the Peak District on Sunday (nothing too strenuous), followed by a full teaching day on Monday and then zumba class - felt like I had a lead weight in between my legs! Had to sit out a couple of routines due to the BH but seems a lot quieter today.
Getting frustrated by how much thought I'm having to put into mundane tasks - tried cutting my toenails last night, took ages!

Sounds like we're all really starting to feel the effects of third tri. I can't believe we're all so nearly there yet it still seems so far away.
Midwife eventually turned up after 12 and reckons the numbness and tingling was down to a migraine. Blood pressure was higher than usual for me but still in 'normal' range so she wasn't too worried. She said to get to the docs for some safe tablets to take if it happens again tho. I think I might just go anyway in the morning as I've still got the headache. It's not as bad as it has been but I've had it well over a week now and just fed up of it
Work isn't helping either, I honestly don't know how they think it's a good idea to leave one person alone with 10+ children (there's two other staff in the nursery but they're upstairs with babies), especially when I'm so pregnant and not exactly the most capable of running around after them at the minute! It really annoys me when I walk in at 3.30 and the managers are literally stood waiting by the door with their bags ready to leave (yes, they leave at 3.30 so we have no 'management' in the building for the rest of the day......!). There's barely even a 'Hi, how are you?' 'This is what's happened today.....' before they're rushing off home. It drives me insane

I've been going weekly since 23 weeks and i'm loving it. It's so nice being in the water, and the class is really relaxing too. It's a bit of a drive for me but i'm finding it's worth it! I'm now the 4th most pregnant lady there which is scary, but it's so lovely to hear that the others have had their babies now!
I've got midwife today too 29+4 for me.
I'm exhausted. I couldn't sleep last night. There's not even a small part of me that feels up to working today. I'd call in sick if i could but I don't want to let the team down so close to me actually leaving. Misplaced logic maybe, i doubt they appreciate it

This point is where it starts to get hard feel like I'm really starting to struggle (with everything!) so want to just give up work already, but can't afford it and don't want to feel like I'm letting people down. Although I don't know why I'm bothered really when they've turned so horrible at work. I've already had comments off people about finishing 'too early' at 34 weeks, really bugs me that people think they can comment when they don't know the situation.
Not long til we all meet our babies tho xxx

Believe me, it's soooo tempting!! The only reason I'm staying is to get a bit more money in. And the fact I don't actually have to see the managers when I'm there pisses me off, but at least I don't have to be pleasant to them haha.
Only 22 more working days.....if I don't persuade the doc to sign me off for a few days haha. Xxx

I feel like I'm the only one working in my place today, long story but we are very under staffed and when I leave they aren't replacing me and you know what I don't care that they will struggle, most of them deserve it!! Sound like a cow don't I? But they all so catty!!
