*****December Babies*****

[Doob]

It's not in my booklet or anything and I haven't a clue what she's going to assess, me? the house? Baby stuff I have in? Strange x

 

[sophs85]

I can't find any info on what this blood test is next time I go?? Seems like they just do what they want. So confusing! Xx

 

[Doob]

Yeah that's strange too. I wish I'd have asked for more info but it didn't register until after I'd left. You're not high risk for anything are you? X

 

[sophs85]

No? I had a lot of protine and white blood cells in my urine today and the sent it off in a red lid container. I mentioned pre-eclampsia but she didn't seem bothered. Unless she didn't want to panic me?? Xx

 

[Doob]

Here's my booklet info in remaining visits. No mention if home visit or further bloods. I'm sure if she was concerned about pre eclampsia though Sophs shed have said something cos it's not something they take lightly, I think she'd have told you. Xx

 

[sophs85]

Hope so. She was worried about my urine so I just need to wait for results xx

I had white blood cells and a trace of protein in mine a while back, they sent it off to get checked and turned out I had a uti so hopefully it's nothing too bad. Xx

 

[sophs85]

Yea that's what she's thinking. Bloody pregnancy!! Lol x

 

[jodied]

Enjoy swimming Jodie! The HV just left it all went fine really and made me realise babies will be here in 2.5 weeks I think I'm still in denial about it all actually happening.

Thanks it was good Ella loves dunking her face in now and picking up her toys from the bottom. I thought the same today that if this one comes at the same time as Ella it's only 2.5wks! To be honest I don't think it will sink in until it happens x

 

[Sosie]

Oh sophs, I had to have my blood taken at my 34 week appointment. I hope you here about the results quick.. My next appointment is 36 weeks but its a bog standard one.. No home assessment, it's so strange how much each area and each MW differs.
I've still not heard from my health visitor.. According to my MW she should have already visited me.

Evenings girls, tucked up in bed and feel rotten. Nearly threw up eat and sobbed into SH arms as I walked in the house. Tired doesn't even describe it. I worked 8-7 today and I'm whacked. Added to which I had one of those painful kicks in the ribs too while I was driving home, just tipped me over the edge. Hopefully a good night sleep will sort me out! Hope you are all doing ok x

 

[sholou_uk]

Bless, try to get an early night. Know how you feel re working long hours. I'm meant to have finished work ( on Hol this week) but worked 9 till 820 today

 

[Doob]

Sorry you're having a rough time I don't know how yore still doing it, I finish this week at 35w and I'm tired. Hope a good nights sleep helps x

 

[klferrin]

Oh hun, you poor thing! Get plenty of rest, it's awful feeling so tired. I know we keep saying it and sometimes it's easier said than done, but you need to slow down. You may feel you have a sense of duty to your job (well that's how I felt anyhow), but you also have a duty to yourself and your baby - and it's your baby that comes first.

Hope you got your birthing pool today hun, just make sure your hubby gets that front room is ready for it!
Happy 37 weeks btw xxxxx

 

[Doob]

Ooo happy fully cooked day Dysco!! Xx

 

[sophs85]

Happy fully cooked!! Xx

 

[Sosie]

Eek.. Congratulations on being fully cooked, hope you managed to get some sleep x

 

[dyscochick]

So excited I'm fully cooked, just dragging myself up to face the day. Gonna try and make it a short one cos I'm shattered. Slept ok but how do you get a decent night anyway atm, loo breaks disrupt the best if nights as we all know! Should have had Monday off this week and Friday afternoon but had to cancel both. Will be more strict next week I hope! My mat leave cover is just going to have to manage with more than u'd hoped!

 

[Sosie]

Awwr dysco.. Make sure you do have your days off next week.. I know I'm literally up almost every hour now for the toilet .. (I think bubs is using my bladder as a pillow. ) and then I lie there worrying about anything and everything.. Last day at work today yay!
Xx

 

[Bliss days]

Hope work settles down for you Dysco. I worked 8-7.15 yesterday and I'm shattered today. Monday and Tuesday were both 8-6.15 too. It's hard isn't it? I do have that sense of duty to work but I know baby and I need to come first. Hope you can relax in the evenings.

I have a home visit tomorrow by mw and I'm 34 weeks. I thought maybe its because I want a home birth. I do feel like I'm going to be assessed and judged! The house cleaning has started today! Feel so tired it may take two days! Lol. Xx
