well just got back from hospital...again..lol

The plan of action is to go in for monitoring on friday and monday and then i have another growth scan booked for next friday (22nd) if he hasnt had a growth spurt or they arnt happy with his measurments, i WILL be getting induced...eek!!! The consultant isnt happy with the progress little man made in the 2 weeks from my 1st growth scan to the one i had on thursday. so if i have little change again by my next growth scan.. its baby time! really pleased that i will be practically 37 weeks then (well on the monday after the scan).. so just 11 days to go!!

Hope everyone else is ok?

Jen how is work going? (it is this week isnt it?) xx

Cant believe how quick everything is going! OH has 2 weeks off starting on the 25th as does Brookes summer holidays start, so could be a very busy 1st week for them both if i have to be induced...

I got my answer from your other thread lol!!

I have now got a cold and I'm having a terrible time breathing - I just feel crap after so little sleep , my bump is uncomfy (understatement) and now feel quite out of breath. Have taken my inhaler but just not working very well cos its more baby in wrong place and not asthma bothering me I think. I have made an executive decision to change my office opening hours to 10am to 4pm (I work in office alone). My kids now off on school holidays so no need to be up at silly O'clock to take them to school

i have a raging cold too, splutter cough!
can't breath, especially when little man is kicking me in the ribs too...
had bad SPD all afternoon, after walking around town for an hour, but feel better now that i've been sitting down resting.
have next scan on 21st to see if he is still laying breech, fingers crossed he will have turned by then!
hope everyone else is feeling good too x

You are having this little man in July for deffo! You feel OK about the induction? At least like you say you'll be 37 weeks and he should be fine when he pops out

Work is knackering, cause I'm sat down so much my calves & feet are swelling and it's SO hot at the mo and I feel out of breath just sat down!

Had MW this morning, saw another random one, not my normal lady and she was quite young. She wasn't as vigorous as the last woman I saw and she's put baby's head is free again which I'm not sure I entirely believe as the pressure I have at the mo is unreal, feel like I need to pee constantly and am getting lots of twinges down in my pelvis, it feels like groin strain, but who knows? Back again at 38w x

This made me laugh as i had a random MW today and she measured me at 36cm...PMSL.. and we all know thats not true otherwise i wouldnt be at the bloody hospital.. considering i was measured 4 days ago and they got me at 30cm...

Maybe Jen, but if i do you still wont be that far behind me if your OH prediction comes true! what was it again? 4th august??

I am very crampy and tight tonight, its like i have a constant period ache and its worse if i stand up or walk.. going to go for a nice soak in the bath soon and get a early night as OH is on nights this week, so i have the bed all to myself xx

 

[Emerald rose]

Didnt get any sleep last night my 4 year old has an ear infection so she was in too much pain to sleep. may help me get used to being woken up by crying in the night again though.
So our next mummy will most likely be kelly wounder who will be after her?

 

[Lulu_Laroo]

Eek! We have water pouring through our kitchen ceiling. OH called me and in my panic I just fell down the stairs. I can feel baby moving still - I only fell about 6 steps but fell pretty hard on my side/back and got such a fright that I burst into tears. I'm pretty sure I'm ok but OH is insistent we go to a&e just to make sure

 

[HeppiBean]

Hope everything's ok Lulu At least LO's still moving about xx

 

[KellyHook]

Omg! What a day! I had to phone MW today as I still had the constant ache and tightness under my bump that started yesterday! I also had very sharp pains that took my breath away and bought tears to my eyes, and I also leaked fluid, so thought it was best to ring and get checked out!! I was put on the monitor again, everything fine, no urine infection, doctor wasn't sure if my waters went, so he did a internal! Eek!! Turns out my waters are still intact, so looks like I just wet myself lol, he did say that my cervix was low considering I had 5 weeks left and don't think I will go full term, but couldn't say for definent as he could be wrong! they have no idea what the pains could be as I'm not contracting so just told to keep a eye on it as it could turn into contractions or it could just fade away!! I tell you now this boy of mine is such a monkey!

I'm so glad I've had a baby before as I was in a room next to the delivery rooms! Not great noises coming from there I tell you..lol was worth hearing it tho once I heard the baby cry

How's everyone today? Xx

 

[Emerald rose]

My waters are leaking midwife said its a slow leak but not to panic. Also getting mild contractions but i dont think im in labour yet.

oh no!
hope you are feeling better, it's nice that your OH is taking such good care of you x

 

[Lulu_Laroo]

Just got back from hospital, I ended up ringing the delivery suite who said I should come in just to be on the safe side. I was wired up to a heartbeat monitor for about half an hour which showed baby's heartbeat was nice & strong. Had a doctor check me over also. I've just got a really sore back now! It's good to know I'll be well looked after at my hospital - I almost didn't think it was worth ringing them but OH insisted I did and they straight away said they'd prefer me to go in. Home now and putting my feet up!

Oh, and managed to stop the water in the kitchen; plumber is coming tomorrow!

P.S Kelly - looks like you had a bit of a day like mine, although different reasons! Glad all is ok though

 

[KellyHook]

Glad your alright louise, must of been scary for you!!

Yer everything seems to be ok, I'm still in pain though, and it doesn't help I feel quite emotional, I just think everything from the past 3 weeks is finally catching up with me, OH is on nights and I'm just sat in my bed crying! Not really sure why, I know part of the fact is due to my damn MIL, whinging and slagging me off to other family members all because I didn't tell her how I got on at the consultant yesterday, fair enough I didn't tell her, but there was no reason, as to why I didn't tell her, didn't keep it a secret or anything just I had a lot on, then the pains started so just had more things to panic about! Plus everyone rang or text me to find out how I got on, she knew I was seeing the consultant so why didn't she ring me to find out! Its not like I want to be at the hospital all the time, because I don't!! Its doing my head in! I've had a lot of things to deal with (not just pregnancy related) theses past couple of weeks, just wish people would give me a break!!
O well that's family for you! (Well OH's family, mine are great ) sorry that turned into a rant! Lol xx

 

[HeppiBean]

Bought RLT today... Eager to try a cup but not sure if I'll like it... What's it taste like lovelies? xx

 

[KellyHook]

To me when I was drinking it, it didn't taste hardly of anything.. I wouldn't say its horrible, I'd quite happily drink it, but I've decided to stop taking it till I remember to ask my MW if I can! Just got for it xx

 

[HeppiBean]

Well I had a cup and you're right, it doesn't really taste of much... But is strangely addictive! Ha ha... Dunno whether it was coincidence of what but about 5 minutes after I'd finished it I had quite a long-lasting BH... lol Made me feel like it was 4 quid well spent he he xx

 

[Lulu_Laroo]

I liked the taste but I let it brew for ages!

 

[HeppiBean]

I left it for 5 minutes... And I didn't mind the lack of flavour, the flavour that was there was nice! Hence the "strangely addictive" lol xx

 

[Emerald rose]

My contractions are getting stronger and more regular. I may be heading to the hospital soon

 

[KellyHook]

Yer its not bad I used to leave mine to brew to!! £4 where did you buy them from, tesco sell them for £1 something.. Xx

 

[songbird]

Ohh Emerald i hope everything is ok hun.

I went to day assesment unit today to have my urine and protein checked and all is good. She is still head down and measurements are fine so looks like i will be here for a while longer yet
