***********December 2015- Final Leg***********

[Becky1]

I finish on 20/11 but they have been so unsure of my due date I could end up going off earlier if she is impatient! They are so clueless that we worry about our job and training someone up for going off. I am officially on the count down though because I have had enough. Think the lack of sleep doesn't help my mood haha x

That's my last day at work too! Also counting down! Sick of the driving, sick of traffic, sick of feeling like I'm being judged if I feel tired or achy!



I don't know what we are having but I bought gender specific clothing on mothercare last night just in case as it was on sale! Lost the plot! X

Hahaha! Blue or pink?

Positively relieved to have my bloods come back with anaemia. Only borderline, but enough to treat. I was just thinking how knackered I had become and was worrying that this would be it for the next 10-12 weeks

Hope you start to feel better soon Hun. xx

Pink! My midwife made the mistake of saying she thought she knew what we were having & then referred to the baby as she..now I'm 85%-90% erring in side of little lady! X

Whoop whoop officially tri 3 today!!! The home straight!

Hope everyone well xx

 

[Becky1]

Woo hoo how you feeling hun? Not sure how everyone else is finding it but for me time has definitely slowed down from how quick tri2 went! x

Hi Becky. I'm ok. Tired, feeling huge, baby likes to rave pretty much all day but specifically at 3am! But loving it all the same.

On countdown to mat leave. 9 weeks on Monday whoop whoop, can not come quick enough.

But yes time defo slowing down. I have growth scan on wed so looking forward to that. Hope your ok ? X

 

[*glow*]

HI!! sticking my head in until I am officially here on Wed. Time has slowed last two weeks, I won't lie I am clock watching to finish work!

Nesting instinct is amusing, not clean ing necessarily, just acting as if armageddon will happen in Dec ha ha!!

Got my 4d scan in a couple of weeks so looking forward to that, I am team yellow so really can't wait to see babys face, anyone think I will be closer to telling?

Other than that just realised I have bought pretty much everything apart from monitors, clothes and bedding..eek! X

I'm ok... Like you tired and huge! I'm so unsure of when I'll finish depending on c section date, somewhere between 4 weeks and 6 weeks left at work - ideally 5 weeks to take me to the end of Oct...wow I've just realised how soon that it!

Although I really am struggling at home entertaining a 2 year old! Hoping that my in laws will carry on having him a day a week.

Is your growth scan because you are measuring ahead? xx

 

[JillMcCoy]

I am with you all on things going slowly. It's all flown in until this last 2 weeks and I am officially counting down. I too am going on Armageddon mode! I've not been too mad on baby stuff, I panic every so often at time and getting stuff but I have been very laid back about it all. I have just done a tesco delivery which is bulk buying cleaning products and pet food... So random!! X

 

[Becky1]

My panic is Christmas presents! I've got loads, lots more on order or at least I know what I'm buying. Started making Christmas cards last week with my little boy too - I'll have the tree up next lol.

It's like I think all shops will cease to exist once baby is here! xxx

Hello,

New to this forum but thought it would be nice to share the excitement with other mums.
I will be 27 weeks in 2 days so technically in my last Trimester . I'm due on the 27th of December and honestly can not wait! I'm so excited, my first baby so enjoying every minute. Already planning my second!
Any one else having a Christmas baby...

Oh I feel your pain, I have a four year old who isn't quite understanding mummy can't so everything she expects. At least she's at school during the day. I feel for you having one at home all the time.

No my growth scans are because my Dd was unexpected/unexplained low birth weight at 2wks late and 5lb 7. So they keeping a close eye and I have scans at 28,32 and 34 weeks booked in.

So glad it's Friday! Another week down x x

 

[Becky1]

Lots of scans - hopefully all on track with this baba.

You did the sensible thing leaving a bigger gap!! I'm enlisting the help of grandparents today as hubby is off out!

Had my whooping cough and flu jab yesterday - wow my arms hurt!!!

Welcome DeeDee15

 

[Lucylastic]

Why oh why is it that my body insists on waking at 4 & refuses to let me go back to sleep? I am so tired! At least I can get some stuff done but still I'd much rather sleep longer before I have to get up to do a full day at work!

Got my 28 week appointment Tuesday, going to ask about vaccinations then. Looking forward to getting my bumpy measured!

Personal question & obviously would depend on person but roughly how much weight have ladies put on? I'm almost 2st heavier at 28 weeks today.

 

[Becky1]

I weighed myself the other day and worked it out (I've avoided the scales for weeks and weeks!) I've put on 2st too and I was 30 weeks yesterday. x

 

[Melissa Sian]

I'm a four am waker too, ready for bed by 6pm!

I haven't weighed myself for about 4 weeks, I'd put on a stone at that point (23 weeks). I expect it to be a lot more now. My plan is to deal with it in January I'm not gonna worry about it now.

Deedee I'm due 24th December, gonna be a very different Christmas this year! Hope everything going well for you x

Hi girls, I am officially here! Can't believe how quick time is going, it is scary. Have so much stuff to sort before baby comes along, including getting a new boiler fitted, decorating nursery and buying a new car, I have a street Ka at the moment :s

Last time I weighed myself I had gained 1st 3 pounds, but that was 2 weeks ago so will check again later, bump has grown a lot i the last 2 weeks.

Has every one had their flu and whooping cough jabs yet? Can I ask if it made anyone feel ill afterwards?

xxx

 

[JillMcCoy]

I haven't weighed myself at all through out the pregnancy. I got my whooping cough jab on Thursday and it's still swollen glad I didn't opt for the flu jab at the same time or I wouldn't have been able to sleep on either side. Xx

 

[lisa1985]

Can we have the first page with all our due dates on and what team we are? xxx

Totally, I'm not stressing about my weight so much as majority of it seems to be baby, just curious as don't want it to get too out of hand!

Feeling really tired & uncomfortable today. Feel like there is a lot of pressure at the bottom & sides of my bump. Could do with sitting down with my feet up this evening but going out for a family meal for my dad's birthday.
