**** April 2015 Mummies ****

I get lots of pressure down there. It feels like he's sticking his feet in my ribs and pushing his head as far down as he can! It's very uncomfortable! Makes me wonder sometimes if he just does not want to be in there!!
 
I love feeling baby way way down. My son just wasn't interested in venturing down there at all. It makes me optimistic that this baby won't have to be dragged out like my son! I live in hope!
 
I watched my belly doing impressive ripples and obvious kicks and punches last was very strange but cool till it belted me in the ribs lol
 
It's so strange, I'm also on the small side at 5ft2 so maybe it is they just don't have enough room to play as much as they want in there.

Aimee it's just in the past few days I've seen belly ripples and kicks as well it just amazes me.
 
Always worth a check but my mw told me the rib pain is courtesy of our little darling lol sometimes it's so bad I can't breathe properly and end up in tears! Apparently it's normal especially if you have low ribs/ shorter torso.
 
I'm getting jabs down in my bum too, feel very strange! My baby is head down (quite low according to the chiropractor) but not getting hard rib kicks yet, but there have definitely been times when baby has been pushing up into ribs.

I've got my 28 week appointment with the midwife on Wednesday, so will know if I'm actually measuring big or not - I feel bloody huge! Has anyone had their GTT yet? I'm pretty sure I was told at booking in I'd need one, but not had it yet, so need to ask about that.

Xx
 
EmmaJane: I had my GTT the week after my 28 week appointment but only because the midwife forgot to do it at my 28 week appointment. Maybe worth phoning her to ask if she's remembered it needs doing.
You get bloods taken at 28 weeks anyway, so as well getting your GTT done at the same time. Xx
 
Thanks Hun, will try and get hold of her, but they are only in the office for an hour in the morning, so may not get to speak to her until Wednesday. Does it have to be done this week? Or is it a sometime around now test? (if you know what I mean) x
 
I don't think it matters if it's this week. I just ended up feeling like a pin cushion having to go twice in 7 days to give blood. Xx
 
If you've had the GTT and it was fine, do you need a 2nd? No one has mentioned a second test to me. But they did forget about me for my 1st.

I'm in agony today!!! Back hurts so bad, feels like sciatica. When I lift my left meg I get a shooting pain through my lower tummy/ pelvis and it hurts to walk!

Midwife tomorrow so going to speak to her properly and she what she thinks is the cause :(

I've been in work all day and just been on the till and pottered around the shop a little so I'm not going stiff and I'm still in agony :( xxx
 
You've already had a GTT in this pregnancy? I'm pretty sure they would only retest if you started displaying symptoms of GD. Xx
 
god this doesnt like me today :( only posting like my first sentence xxx
 
Ill try again, 3rd time lucky! had my 4d scan yesterday and it was lovely but they said baby is breech, i know theres loads of time for her to turn again but im scared now as really want a vbac birth, really terrified of another section! my bump seems to have tripled the last week or so too, wonder if thats because she turned! xxx

Gorgeous scan pic Hun! Soo cute!

Re breech baby: my chiropractor and I were talking about it, and she said the Webster technique is very effective. I think you would need to see a chiropractor about it, rather than it being something you can do yourself, but might be worth looking into.

Congrats Rebecca! Lovely photos :-) Is baby a girl? I can update the front page?
