I am dreading weighing in again! I had put 2 and a half on at 32 weeks! Since then I've slowed up on the activity front and had a 2 week holiday so dread to think what the weight gain is now!!..... Def wear them if they make u feel better!

Well u r 1-0 up so that's always better than trailing behind!!

 

[Mummy_midwife]

So we are prob the same on the weight gain front weight loss buddies perhaps? and yes always good to start winning, but I will still end up with no new ails by the end of the game xxxxxx

* nails

 

[mum2b410]

There's been so much pressure on Brazil tho! Not fair really!! Hope u have your fingers left by the end at least!!

Happy to b weight loss buddies! Lol xx

 

[Mummy_midwife]

lol me too, I will need to keep my fingers if not the nails xxx

 

[Zoe S]

thank you ladies for your advise today. I tried the whole on all 4's bit and he turned but is sideways! And its so uncomfortable ive spent 4 hrs in work hoping he would turn just a little so i could get comfy! I'm now laid in bed and still cant quite get comfortable and he's now up for moving!
mummy-midwife she basically told me there here they don't let you go into natural labour breech especially not with your first so my options would be c-section or trying to turn him i feel abit like a drama queen seen as this is my only real hurdle ive had this pregnancy but it the only thing other than loosing him that scared me.. Everyone around me keeps making out like its nothing and i should just get on with it think you lot are the only ones who have been understanding about
as for nesting i having about 2 days a week of cleaning urges but my god does my body tell me off afterwards! And never stays clean or tidy for long :/
mummy-midwife spanks would be a great idea but i don't think i could cope with being pulled in i don't really feel to comfy in anything that's not loose over my bump so be no good for me, but if they make you feel better Hun go for it! Xx

Argh!!!!!! Leg cramp!!!!!!!

 

[mum2b410]

Lol- mrsm!! Leg cramp is awful when in gets u lying in bed! (Assuming that's when it happened?) My calf seizes up and I feel like breathing through a contraction trying to stretch it out! Lol!

Zoe- I think that's really unfair of people not to be more understanding! Having any kind of surgery is anxiety provoking and a c section certainly isn't minor! I don't think u r being a drama queen about it at all hun! What I will say is that there r def some positives to an elective section like knowing when the baby will come, knowing in advance how it's all going to happen, etc and some people have amazing c section experiences! U can still have skin to skin and breastfeed too- my friend ended up with an emergency c section and she had a wonderful hour long skin to skin/breastfeeding session whilst in recovery! Her scar is minor and her recovery was quick and uncomplicated! .....I know its not what u have invisaged or wanted and like I said before he van still go head down again, but if its upsetting u to think of the possibility maybe focus on the advantages of it a bit more and see if that helps? *hugs* xxx

 

[mum2b410]

Hubby has given me a lie in this morning bless him!..... Last night bit better than the one before- only me up in the night, not Ethan! But I feel rough with what I can only presume is a cold or hayfever getting a lot worse
Nothing major planned today, just a few jobs and baby prep but tomorrow my bestie has organised a little baby shower type thing for me! Don't know much about what's planned except its an afternoon tea! So looking forward to that

Have a lovely weekend all xxx

 

[Zoe S]

Thanks mum2b,
I'm abit calmer about it today it's taken a lot to sink in like you say I do need to focus on the positives otherwise I think I'm going to drive myself insane hopefully he decides to turn around but if he doesn't I'm going to have to deal with the next step, probably doesn't help that closest thing to any kind of surgery I have had is having a tooth pulled out! :/
Oo enjoy your baby shower mum2b I have mine in 2 weeks ( though I'm having to pull a sicky at work for it as I tried to get them to finish me on the Friday but they want me in till Sunday :/ ) xx

Mrsm I feel for you with the leg cramps I've only had it a couple of times but they are awful! I just get hip ache if I lie on one side to long now xx

I got up this morning to no bread or anything for my breakfast and just asked hubby to go and get me something but couldn't decide what I wanted!
He's just come back with crusty rolls, bacon, pain au chocolat and soreen loaf for me bless him little feast for me this morning xx

 

[OfficiallyMrsM]

It got me at 5.30am!!!!! Stupid thing then I couldn't go back to sleep, had to pee. Woke hubby up when getting up. He then came and cuddled me for an hour and finally fell back to sleep! Hate leg cramps. Hope everyone is okay this morning

 

[mum2b410]

Glad u feel a bit better Zoe
Awesome breakfast there!

Mrsm- I hate the cramps!! Nice of your hubby to give u a cuddle- I am like an oven right now so cuddles r brief! Lol! So very hot! Its like a furnance is blazing in me even though it rained loads here last night and its cooler today! Xx

 

[Lilmisshopeful]

Sorry baby is breach Zoe but there's a plus point to a section... Compassionate leave xxx

 

[Mummy_midwife]

Zoe, what you are going through is no minor thing, it is a major thing that your mind is trying to understand and make sense of. No drama queen at all. Baby could still turn, if not they can try an ECV if you wish so maybe don't assume you will have a section just yet? I am sorry to rant, but I still disagree with your midwife's approach, no where in the uk have the midwife or doctor the right to say you are not allowed a natural birth if your baby is breech, they can advise you but not tell you what to do, rant over :/
I am sorry you are going through this, it isn't a nice place to be where your plans might change completely ... Hope you enjoyed breakfast.

Mum2b, Glad you slept a bit better last night and got a lie in... I too got a lie in and woke up at 12 that's a major lie in but feel better for it; how nice to have a baby shower tomorrow organised by your friend, I had one with My 1st and then 2nd arrived a couple of days before hers, so ended up having a 'welcome baby' party instead when she was 2 weeks old... This time I won't have anything I hope you have a lovely one, so nice to get together with friends and celebrate baby's imminent arrival !

I haven't had any leg cramps this pregnancy, had loads with the other 2, glad I have scaped this time as they are horrible. But my BH are making up for it.

[Zoe S]

Thanks you ladies,
It has helped to get it out my system without being judged for it! Just waiting game see what happens I suppose.
My breakfast was awesome though I managed 1 pain au chocolat and 2 bacon rolls save the soreen for tomorrow!
Just been and picked up some bigger clothes as I starting to find nothing fits again causing another melt down! Not been a great week! :/ but they have sale on in peacocks and newlook so picked up couple of nice bits
I'm off to my friends wedding rehearsal later ready to be bridesmaid next week! But back at work tomorrow boo! Xx
Hope everyone has good weekend xxx

 

[Kaffee]

Afternoon all.

Been a fab day here watching Tour de France come through the village, now just chilling at father in laws till the roads reopen and we can head home. Was stood next to a girl who was 25 wks so we chatted baby stuff whilst waiting for the tour to come through. Awful nights sleep though, as his spare bed was so hard, looking forward to a better nights sleep tonight.

Have a good baby shower tomorrow mum2be.

 

[Happy84]

Hi all,
Today is officially rest day. Bradley is at his dads for the weekend and James is working till late. So I've pretty much done nothing but chill out on the sofa and watch re runs of the Kardashians lol.

Hope everyone is okay?

Zoe - How are you feeling now? I think it was awful the way it was explained to you!

Kaffee- My stomach pain started almost like bruise like pain, he was breech so his head was pushing right up and it felt so so sore! My torn muscles started in my last pregnancy so this one has just made them worse.

MummyMidwife - I think I'll prob need physio after too! Im a little worried about my options if I was to have another after this. I think I'll prob be trying my spanx like underwear on whilst getting back in shape too lol. Im already planning my fitness regime for afterwards too!! lol.


Hope you're all having a lovely weekend!

[keeptrying14]

Hey happy glad u had a relax. Haha u sound like me that's all I watched was kourtney and Kim take New York today lol

Anyone els get dizzy spells now? I know it's not my iron as that was all fine last week. I just come over all hot and dizzy lasts a couple of mins then goes? Xxx

 

[OfficiallyMrsM]

I get that keep trying. My ears go really warm and I get dizzy then sit down and it goes.

 

[Weezy]

Hi everyone

Zoe.. Any luck getting baby to turn? That's really rubbish of your MW and I'm sure I'd feel the same as you. There's still time, I'll be keeping everything crossed for you. Bless your oh getting you breakfast

Kaffee - hope you got home ok and got a better sleep last night.

Mummy midwife - spanx are a definite for me too. I'm returning to work quite quickly after so won't have a great deal of time to shift the weight. Hoping bf will help take some of it off too. Your pictures are lush ! I've still not had mine through yet and she's away on hol now. Secretly v annoyed !

This is the worst week so far for me I think.. Been sick, tired, dizzy and sore with PGP and stomach thing.
Also last few mornings I've been wakening up feeling real pressure and heaviness in the bottom of my stomach.. Like a seriously bad period pain literally feels like my insides are going to fall out. It goes within the first hour or so of getting up, don't think it's something to worry about, just hope it doesn't continue till the end as it's really uncomfortable. Had a few BH as well, they are a joy. Feeling stressed as supposed to be moving soon but letting agent has stopped all communication and won't answer any of my questions! Only really hut me yesterday that we've only 9 weeks at the very very most until baby, and we need to re-decorate most of new place still! Argh !

Weekends I always struggle with and feel really down. That's how I know I'm not ready to stop work yet for as much as I ache and feel fed up sometimes, it's a reason to get up out and about. I just lie in self pitty when there's not a need to do things.

Roll on the rest of this month.. Can't wait to say soon that we're having babies this month

Xx
