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

thanks weezy so far no joy he is still insistant on staying side ways and booting me in the side!x
sounds like your having a time of it at the minute, hope things start to get sorted for you soon with the move Hun x
ive had worst night sleep so far last night waking up atleast 5 times to wee or get a drink or gaviscon! Seems to just get worse!
2 weeks left before maternity leave starting to feel it now though i have permission to wear my crocs now as my feet swell so much i cant get them back out my work shoes when i get home xx
 
Hey weezy :( sorry ur having such a crap time. Like u said roll on august. I for one can not wait to get my body back and my brain I seemed I have lost that too along the line! Just keep thinking u have done the hardest bit ur on the final push now.

Hey Zoe I'm with u on weeing it's driving me crazy! How's bubs does he feel like he has turned?

Officiallymrsm it's good to know I'm not the only one I hate it when it happens xxx
 
Keep trying it's bonkers how much we have to wee isn't it! No sign of him turning he seems to content sideways at the moment! Though where he is I can feel every little squirm! He Such a little monkey! Xx
 
Hi guys,
34 weeks for me today! Bump pic to follow.
Enjoyed my rest day yesterday, much needed. Off to the in laws for dinner today so luckily I don't have to cook! :)

keeptrying - Haha yes thats exactly what I was watching all day!! lol.
Yeh I get the odd dizzy spell now and then but they don't last too long thankfully!

Weezy - Sorry you're having such a bad week hun! See Im the opposite, Im more fed up and stressy when Im up and about, much more relaxed when Im resting! Funny how differently hormones affect us isn't it!

Zoe - Hats off to you for continuing to work this long tho hun!!! Cant believe you're still going! :) Hope today is a better day for you!
 
Yep I'm in the weeing a hundred times a day club !
I can't wait to get a decent sleep!! By decent I of course realise that I will still be crazy sleep deprived but hoping the PGP pain will go and at least I won't be sleep deprived and sore!!

Zoe when's your next appt hun? I'v read loads of stories of babies who were breech right up until the last second (sure there's been a few on OBEM too) so try not to worry too much. I'm fully expecting mine to be breech soon as he's been head down until now but starting to feel movements much higher in bump.
Also, keeptrying.. I find I get dizzy when I've not eaten properly/enough. Remember you need extra calories from now on in as this is when baby puts the fat on. I think they take more from you in the final stretch than any other time (I think that's right- sure I read it somewhere..)

Mum2b hope your having a lovely baby shower :) xxx
 
Thanks Happy
Feeling a little better after a moan here and to OH. I'm sure he thinks I'm being dramatic (and I prob am) but he humours me well :)
Lucky you getting dinner cooked. I so miss my mums cooking that's the worst thing about living so far apart!

Off to get cleaning and chores done, OH has been helping loads but unfortunately manages to miss any mess not staring him in the face!! A bit of nesting also bound to put me in a better mood

Crazy hormones!! :) xxx

34 week bump shot.
 
Hi ladies, I had my baby shower yesterday.thankfully the sun came out and we were able to have the garden party as planned.my mum had made some fab decisions all the hunting was hand made it looked fab.
We played lots of daft games, had nice food and drink. Juice for me. Baby was totally spoilt, we got tones of clothes and two people made me gift sets with baby clothes, bath thing's, nappies,rattles, everything. I'm not sure I have room for it all. Really was a fab day.
I will post all in my blog with pics soon.

Been ordered to relax today by OH so he is cooking dinner.
similar to most of you got leg cramps through the night by gosh they are intense, pain turning over in bed and laying too long on either side causes leg pains. Oh the joys.
Got the parenting class tomorrow at the hospital hope it's informative.
 
Happy - Lovely bump Hun! I'm just about still going been sent home early today with the worst BH I have had so far! Maybe this is him moving round as I'm feeling loads of pressure down below and twinges :/ but my bump still looks square as if he is sideways still!
Weezy- my next appointment is 18th hopefully he will turn dans family have a history of boys turning 2 days before they appear apparently but still not getting my hopes up just incase xx
Mummy bear sounds like you had a nice day at your shower :D xx
 
Hi all!

Have had a lovely time at baby shower thank u :-)
Went for afternoon tea at a place locally called The Kiln. Its a cafe but u can chose anything off the shelves to paint and decorate from piggy banks to plates to wooden letters or plaques! We ate and I got loads of presents (which I really wasn't expecting- especially as its my second!) Then they got a wooden plaque and I painted the base whilst they each painted a star to go on it- going to finish it off with writing when baby here (didn't do it today as we r keeping babies name a secret!). My best friend chauffeured me there and back! I'm full, knackered and feel thoroughly spoilt!

Sounds like everyone is suffering with something now! Its def that stage where we all start to feel it!!.... Got asked again today if I'm having twins 'yawn'!! I know I will still get bigger too :-/ I'm looking forward to getting past giving birth and being able to try and lose weight and get smaller again! Pretty sure my body has almost had enough now! Xxx
 
Hey everyone
I am shattered and fed up as can't sleep, my SI joint is so painful I cannot get comfy on bed and then have to get up to pee, then I can't get comfy and can't sleep and is then 7:30 am when the kids are up so I just get up cause I can't sleep anyway grrrrrr I know I felt this fed up before and then the baby comes and has me up 40 times a night and I wish I was pregnant again ... I have no clothes that fit over my bump and dresses make me look like a church bell.

Weezy, I love my pics, she is so good. She posted the disc and prints on Friday to me so looking forward to having them without the bookmarks hopefully tomorrow or Tuesday :) it's been a long 3 weeks waiting for them, hope she can get yours done soon. Sorry you feel down, I too hate weekends but don't think it has anything to do with work as I usually work weekends :/ I totally am trusting breastfeeding will help me to loose weight and til then spanx it will be :)

Zoe, I have everything crossed for baby boy to turn to head down, good to know that's a family history to it so it may just follow the pattern :)

Happy that's a lush baby bump, it looks gorgeous :)

Mummy bear and mum2b, sounds like you both have been very spoilt on baby showers, that is so lovely to hear. So nice to have friends to share the excitement with. I have isolated myself in a bubble and haven't allowed many people in!
Mummybear, I hope you had a lovely cooked meal and that class is good tomorrow.

Mum2b, lovely presents and card, love the star idea, so lthoughtful and special :)
I just roll my eyes now on the twin talk or that I look overdue lol

Mummy_midwife- u have my sympathy! I don't get any symphysis pubis pain but SIJ is awful when its bad- makes me limp!..... So with u on the clothes front too- its depressing! Seeing pictures of myself today just makes me face up to the weight gain and how big I look all over- not just my bump :-( Hate seeing the weight gain on my face!

I think I will invest in a magic wand tomorrow and magic away everyone's aches and pains and woes, make Zoe's and Lianne's baby turn and fast forward time to when we can all have our babies here safely and get our bodies back! Sound good everyone? ;-)
 
Be great wouldn't it!

This is an interesting news article mummy_midwife! You seem to have a good system up where u r- so wish we had the same, but it seems our situation down here in the south us v common! Sad really :-/
 
Ahh mum2b that would be amazballs if you could! Ha a girl can dream!

Well spent since 4pm suffering with Braxton hicks got that bad before I wasn't sure if he was actually trying to make an appearance! But after a hot bath and some cuddles on sofa with hubster it seems to have stopped! Xx
 
Wasn't going to bother posting as nothing nice to say lol but as everyone else is moaning I'll join in haha. I also have a sideways baby and he is quite comfy there. Bum down sometimes and loads of pressure. My back hurts my belly hurts been having period type pains since last night and my feet are so swollen even my slippers don't fit lol. Also developed pregnancy rage and want to kill everyone so think I'm best off locked in my room. Oh and what's with the boobs. They are nearly as big as my belly lol oh blah xxx
 
Ahhh lil miss everything you have just mentioned sounds like me atleast we know we're not alone! Xxx

Can Braxton hicks hurt? Had 4 in the past half hour and are a bit nippy :/

Sorry your feeling it too. Keep reminding myself how happy I am and it's a small price to pay for my rainbow baby but ouch xxx
