*****August 2014 Mummies*****

Keeptrying - ive also noticed a change in bowel but half put it down to the amount of rubbish i cant seem to stop eating the past few weeks. But could well be normal. As mum2b said better that way than constipated!

Mum2b chin up as you say 3d scan to look forward to, i bet that will be lovely. Hope nothing to serious.

Georgie i would say don't worry too much when i saw my mw earlier in the week she said its not unusual to be measuring a few weeks either way. Good thing they have you in for a scan though to double check. I would just ask the nurse when you go for your jab see what she advises.

Im really struggling with pelvis/back today - FINALLY managed to see a physio yesterday after kicking off big time after waiting 10 weeks. So have some small exercises and tubigrip. But i have just taken that off as when sitting down it seems to roll down/up and digs in. But she did advise to get a fembrace online as they are better. So if anyone else is struggling with spd etc it might be worth a shot. x

Thanks HanSam- its nothing serious- just my anxieties getting the better of me right now :-/

Great re the physio appt- FINALLY!..... I don't think many people find the tubigrip an amazing help! The braces always look like they do much more for support! Hope the exercises help too xx

I can feel it supporting as i did find myself quite often when walking holding under the bump to give more support. So its good in that sense but soo tough getting it on in the first place and then trying to get them tripled up and without rolling.! Argh lol

Sorry to hear that hun x

Hey ladies,
Hope your all doing well.
Had my appointment at hospital yesterday, my anti D habits hurt but then I'm a whimp and they put it in my shoulder is that normal? My midwife hadnt put me down to have a glucose test which apparently I need so now back at the hospital on 5th June does anyone know whether I have to completely fast as I can't remember what they told me :/ xx
Other than that my bump is measuring big which I kinda knew but everything is perfect other than that xx

I have my gtt test next week and it says nothing to eat/drink after 10pm the evening before hun.

Glad all went well with mw. Im measuring 2 weeks bigger which i also knew- half expected more due to ppls comments but think that has something to do with the over 2st weight gain lol x

 

[mum2b410]

Nice to hear from u Zoe Glad all well with baby! Not had a gtt hun so no help there I'm afraid!..... Do u have to gave more anti d injections now?? Hope it doesn't hurt now xx

 

[mum2b410]

Done my weekly bump pic! Can't believe I'm 30 weeks now!! Starting to get a bit scared!! Eeeek!!

 

[magdalena87]

Georgie don't worry I am like you was measuring 25 at my 28 week appointment and baby was breech so I think it is down to how they lie. I am sure everything is fine.

 

[Zoe S]

Thank you hansam I'm fasting from half 8 night before because my appointment is at 8:30am as long as I know I can't have everything bit rushed sorting it so I couldn't get my head round it! Haha
I had put on quite abit but I have lost a little since I started working so the fat I out on must just be working off abit now
Mum2b I have to have another one after birth and if I have a knock to my bump or anything it's ok now just sent my arm abit dead yesterday and felt like it was bruising when she was doing it! Probably didn't help they had just took blood from same arm! Xx I have to have whooping cough one at 31weeks not looking forward to it :/
Can't believe you are 30 weeks already mum2b mind I'm still getting my head round the fact I'm 28 now eeek!! Not long for us now ladies soon have our babies here xx

 

[HanSam]

I have my whooping cough next week. Im not a fan of needles but just think of the good it will be doing for baby! its the gtt im not looking forward to - all because my mum has diabetes. I eat all hours of the day so no idea how going to cope not eating until 10/11 after the testing!

Wish i was loosing some weight lol. But tbh i put on 4st something during first pregnancy and managed to get back down to original weight without too much trouble so will just tackle it after.

Wow 30wks mum2b! That is a milestone. Countdown in single figures now x

 

[Zoe S]

Yeah tbf I'm dreading not eating I feel I'll if I don't eat breakfast by a certain time now could be a bit of a long day! X

 

[mum2b410]

Just writing it on here has made it more real!! Arrrgh! Lol!! I will prob go way overdue again so pretty sure I won't b the first (think donnah is getting induced at 38 weeks so unless anyone goes prem I think she might b first!)

Zoe- good luck for gtt! And at least no more anti d until after baby! I had my whooping cough and blood taken on same day! Whooping cough one def the worst (especially next day after!)..... Lucky u managing to lose q bit of weight!!..... I'm like HanSam- hoping not to hit the 4 stone mark this time but at least I know I can lose it if I do! Xx

 

[georgie20]

thanks magda will update tomorrow xx

 

[keeptrying14]

Hi Georgie let us know how u get on I was measuring 2 weeks small at my 25 got my 28 next week so be interesting to see what I measure then. I'm sure all will be fine seen lots of posts like this in tri 3 and they are all fine xx

 

[Zoe S]

Thanks mum2b I'm not too worried they haven't picked anything up in my urine so far but my mum and dans mum have both had diabeties due to pregnancy so I should have been properly tested but my midwife here didn't check my notes or copy them on to there system properly so they didn't pick up on it just good job I took my notes from Wiltshire to hospital with me to be sure I did have concerns at the time that she hadn't looked at it all properly x
Ahh I'm sure we will all manage to get any weight off quick enough after I know that it's cause I started work 5 week ago that I've list it as I have had that but extra activity most days xx

 

[Zoe S]

Has anyone else had a bruised feeling round top of their bump I can't work out whether it's because baby boys been kicking a lot or if it's from having Braxton hicks this afternoon :/ it's not unbearable just uncomfortable x

 

[mum2b410]

I get sore parts on my bump sometimes- I think its where they push or kick in one place for a while! U know your boy is head down so that's gotta b his feet prodding u making u feel bruised :-/ Still, best he us head down!...... For the first time last night I think I had the 'fanny daggers' that ladies talk about but I don't remember having with Ethan! Felt like his hands were prodding the top of my cervix!! Was a bit painful and weird tbh!!

Anyone else got a 3d scan booked? I'm nervous to know all is ok but still v much excited at seeing my baby boy tomorrow! Really hope he is in a co operative mood and we get some good pics! B great to have a DVD too- feel like I never spend much time focusing on him coz of Ethan and hopefully I can find time to play the DVD each day to help me bond a bit more!

Any nice plans for bank hol weekend??

Happy Friday all
