Hi all

well managed not to fall through the bed last night but did have a restless night and OH said I was crying with pain evey time I tried to move/turn over. At one point he went to put his arm around me and I screamed and nearly karate chopped him. I don't remember it but bet it gave him a fright

Had my midwife round today.. my little 'darling' is STILL breech at 35wks He must just be sooooo comfy in there that he's in no hurry to move!! So now I have to wait another week and have a scan to see if he has moved and where he has his legs (legs are important when deciding whether they can manually jiggle him round apparently). I am now measuring 43w pregnant by the tape measure (thats 35w baby growth and 8w pre-preg tummy so all in all still on track)

Right I'm off to raid the fridge and veg out before the 11yo gets home and beats me to the yoghurts!!!!

Lea M - Cannot believe you are 35 weeks
Bexie - I promise to start texting soon and will be the perfect text buddy when Im needed in a few weeks
Rach - hope you had a wonderful PJ day......and are feeling better
To everyone else!!

Im just glad to be in Tri 3. Feeling a bit down today, DH started his new job on Mon, so been away all week. He was supposed to be home at 8pm and now wont be back til gone 10.30pm....ho hum

For the next 6-9 month he is going to be away Tues, Wed and Thurs everyweek and the days he works from home he will have a phone stuck to his ear from 8am til 8pm...... (severe case of deja-vu is setting in) so am trying to find some things to keep myself occupied and will hopefully meet some new people - live in a tiny village and having lived in France for a year, we dont know anyone in the village and its a bit lonely with just the dog for company

Anyway moan over, Im normally such a happy soul

Look forward to hearing everyones news and hope you are all well

Hey Liza (Elliebelle)

Great to see you on the chat thread. As you know I'm not so great at texting myself. (Message to self "Must text more") Really glad to hear that you DH has got a job, shame he has to work away so much, at least you'll have some money coming in. I'm sure once your LO arrives you'll make friends in your village, when you have a baby everyone wants to know you. I didn't really know anyone in our village before our DD was born, but now I know loads of people, just throw yourself into all the baby groups you can, you'll soon make friends.

It's weird coming on here in the evening, we've been without a computer for so long now I feel like a new woman, we've even moved into the Noughties and gone on Broadband!!!!

Right I'm off now to watch Never Mind the Buzzcocks, sleep well girlies.

[hennaly]

is it possible to run out of tears??!!!!
im sick of crying all the time but things are getting so desperate here financially etc i dont know which way to turn, i cried this morning as i had no money to give my son for rag day, luckily i found a bit of change i didnt know was there so he was none the wiser butn i just dont know how much longer this can go on for, im really pissed off that i cant work

 

[hennaly]

hennaly i know exactly how you feel i think everyone seems to be struggling just now dh is self employed and has always had a good income from contract work but it seems to be drying up just now and i dont know from week to week if he will have work. i am not even able to get maternity allowence or bennefit because he works.

yep same here, we put in a claim for tax credit and was told we would get it but because my ex husband has put a claim in too for children that dont even see him they have said i wont get a penny

[hennaly]

thanks Rach

[Bexie]

Hiya Ladies,

Sorry to hear your skint Hen, I know how much of a worry it can be. Can't beleive your ex claiming money for kids he doesn't even see, you should report him!!!

Babydust, love the name Zak Anthony, good choice.

to everyone else.

Well after logging off PF last night with the intention of watching Never Mind the Buzzcocks i heard Phoebe crying so made my way up to check on her and I was greeted by the strong smell of vomit. She was caked in it, poor little munchkin, so we had a team effort in bathing her and changing her bedsheets, washing them, we then had a repeat session an hour later, so I slept in her room as we were worried that she may choke on her own vomit! I had the morning off work to look after her and she was a little delight, really happy and sweet, so I thought it must of passed, then while I was sat on the sofa she looked at me with a worried expression on her face, so I picked her up for a cuddle on my lap, next thing, she had vomited all over us both!! All I could think was how do I manage to get off the sofa without it all falling onto the sofa and carpet. The house just stinks now. Luckily only a small amount of sick got on the carpet and sofa. Sorry if this is all TMI.

First time mums - you've got all this to come

I think this sickness bug is sweeping the area as I phoned my mum to warn her not to come round and she told me that her foster son also has the bug and Phoebe's not even seen him for over a week.

Take care everyone Becks x

 

[rach]

bexie hope DD is well again soon xxx

 

[ninjawomble]

Henn, sorry you are having such a crap time hun

Bexie, hope Phoebe feels better soon

Rach, yes deffo have to meet for a coffee, and I can meet those lovely little lads of yours!

Babydust, hope you ok hun

To anyone I missed or anyone that drops in!

I rented my Tens machine today, as am starting to finally realise that in a matter of weeks I am gonna be having a bubba!!
Also popped to get a wedding pack from the place we want our wedding..so slowly getting organised Just need to set a date!

Walked round town for hours withmy friend...and bump has dropped quite a bit! Has been lying transverse forever so am happy!!

 

[CH0C0H0LIC]

Well what another strange day... been having anxiety attacks (mostly at night) as been stressed about this medical assessment the DSS wanted me to have today. Walked the 2.5miles to the medical assesment centre to be told that A/ their computers were down and there was a long wait and B/ that they can't examine me anyways because it's their policy not to do examinations on women over 34w pregnant!!! I told them it was an interview more than an examination because it's due to anxiety/depression but thay were adament that I didn't need to be seen and sent me away til after the baby has been born!!!! So then it was another 2.5mile walk home practically immediately.... I should have got some flamin sponsors and then at least I could have been walking for a purpose!!

On the way home an Asda delivery van driver decided to beep his horn to acknowledge a friend he'd seen walk by... unfortunately the van was just behind me when he tooted and I nearly had James there and then on the B***dy pavement.... so Asda got a snotty phone call from me asking whether the van driver had got his license from the DVLA or legoland

I need a severe dose of chocolate/ice cream/cake/anything else I can shove down my neck thats bad for me!!!!

All junk food donations greatfully received

Hope you girlies have a good weekend planned.. what you lot up to?

[lea m]

Oh and I got the money back off the school straight away which was great! With all the problems we have had with them so far I was certain I would have trouble with them lol!

Rach YAY on 31 weeks!! I cant believe how fast its going for you!!

just a quickie this morning girls will catch up later when more awake could sleep for britain today well we had a very scary night last night was watching eastenders and had a massive contraction all of a sudden out of the blue was nothing like the braxton hicks that i have been getting lasted over a minute had awful pressure down below and back ache and really bad period pain and couldnt even talk through the pain had another 2 while eastenders was on which panicked o/h so he started timing them and they were coming every 10 mins on the dot after 3 hours panic set in and i thought shit im going to have to go in to hossie as the earlier you go the more chance of them being able to stop it so had a bath (no way was i going in without 1 lol) poor o/h was running round like a headless chicken and then it all stopped from the time i got in the bath nothing and nothing at all since thing is if these were braxton hicks ive never had ones like that before the last time i had ones like that was in labour on luke and then on Jamie my BH are very uncomfortable now and do make me wince a bit when i get them but like i said a comfort thing rather than pain so i really dont know what last night was all about theres a few of us here who have had a few children perhaps one of you can shed some light on it for me xxxxxxx

 

[lea m]

Oh gosh Rach Im so glad they stopped!!!
They sound like real contractions to me too! BH arent supposed to be regular etc! But then they do say if they stop when you have a bath then its BH?! I have no idea? Mayeb they were different for you as you have twins?
That must have been scary and Im glad everything ok but sorry Im no help at all lol!

 

[rach]
