[Toni.C]

Woke up this morning feeling very refreshed compared to how I felt last night! OH was a saint and helped me get a load of cleaning done, the kitchen now gleams! Feeling headachey and tired tonight, not quite right but not sure why! Might be because I'm tired from doing so much today. Hoping this baby stays put until my due date as I don't feel ready at all!

 

[blondy13]

Aww baby c just seen the photos, so lovely! I love the signed nappies!!

 

[brumgirl81]

You did the right thing blondy glad everything ok.

Wow love the shower photos Baby C looks like u were spoilt! My baby shower was supposed to be next weekend, bit late now! Lol

Xxx

 

[Baby_C]

Glad everything is okay blondy.

Toni, you don't think your nesting do you? Maybe baby is going to make an appearance soon!

 

[Baby_C]

Thanks blondy & Brum girl! My friends were very generous bless them, so much effort went into it! Just a little late brum girl!

 

[Flickalicious]

I could have done an online shop but I need to get off my butt and walk around or this baby will get lazy and stay put

I wonder if us all feeling different is a sign that things are guna happen like really soon?? Ive been a right hormonal b!tch recently lol

Baby_C, the shower looks awesome, I bet that's got you excited!!?

Brumgirl, never too late for a baby shower. Everyone can have baby cuddles too! ^-^

More babies please ladies!!

 

[Cosmogirl7]

I'm struggling ladies, baby's head is literally right under my left rib and making sleeping, eating, breathing so uncomfortable. I've been doing everything I can think of to try get he or she to turn but it just doesn't seem to be happening. Xxx

 

[Nonabean]

Try sitting on your birthing ball for some relief, or if you can get comfy - on your knees leaning forward onto something (sofa/pouffe etc) so that bump is hanging down is also a good way to get baby out your ribs, even if it's only for a wee while xx

 

[blondy13]

Cosmo I can imagine it's v uncomfortable, it hurts with a foot in your ribs never mind a head. When is your next scan? Definitely getting on all fours helps and I just keep lifting my hands in the air which offers relief for a minute.
Brum girl a baby shower with the baby already here is lovely, cuddles will be the best bit! How are you and the lovely Grace getting on? X x

 

[brumgirl81]

We are great thanks, she is so quiet and well behaved we almost forget she is there! She does seem to come alive at night so not sleeping very well and can't really sleep in the day because we have visitors wanting to see her! Hopefully things will calm down soon and we can get into a bit of a routine! Really not looking forward to Lee going back to work though!
We have midwife coming today to do her 5 day checks, can't believe it's been almost a week!

 

[brumgirl81]

By the way ladies, the poddle pod and the perfect prep machine are well worth the money!

 

[MissyAK]

Aww, brumgirl she sounds so precious.. Im hoping my little bubba is a quiet one lol.

Im feeling soo rubbish today, don't have an appetite and finding it so difficult to get comfortable

 

[Rachel11]

Glad everyone okay! I have a bit to catch up on lol!!

It's my first day of maternity leave and I feel a little restless!!

Brum girl I looked at the perfect prep machines but was unsure! So you think get one?
Do you use it for night feeds, as night feeds are my worry lol don't ask me why hahah xx

 

[beckyboo1]

I've dropped massively- feel like it's happened overnight as I slept rubbish and was very uncomfy and sore this morning!

Am 38 weeks today so did a comparison photo from 36 weeks. Excuse my wobbly legs and underwear!!

 

[Nicipoo91]

Im a little scared now...
Had a really bad headache with light sensitivity yesterday so my mother told me to ring the midwife, i rung and got admitted into hospital. Had 2 urine tests and a blood test.
The urine was ok but my blood test results have come back with a massive circle round
C-reactive Protein (serum) 9.7mg (high)
And im waiting for a very high doctor to come to discuss some options...
I duno what options these are or why i need to discuss them as it is.

But has anyone else had anything like this or knows what it could be. I dont want to google again xx

 

[Baby_C]

Becky you can see a huge difference there, you really have dropped!

I hope everything goes okay Nicipoo.

 

[Flickalicious]

Wow Becky that is a difference! You can see your bump has got bigger and dropped in those 2 weeks. Exciting!!! ^-^

Nici, I thought incresed levels of protein in the blood was a sign of inflammation so your body is fighting something. Do you still feel unwell?
We all know protein in urine can be a sign of pre eclampsia so it's really good your results are clear! Hopefully you get some answers soon xXx

 

[mrsjohnson88]

Yeah nici a raised crp (if thats the same as what you have had meaaured) can be a sign of inflammation/ infection anything below 5 is normal so your only slightly above that so hopefully whatever it is has been caught sooner rather then later. Hopefully they will give you some answers soon and you are feeling better.

Becky my phone wont load your pics but good sign that you have dropped, hopefully wont be too long now for you!

Had my last antenatal class this morning which was a breastfeeding workshop. It was all quite overwhelming tbh, so much information and I dont think I will remember half of it when baby comes xx

 

[mrsjohnson88]

Sorry brumgirl just read back - glad to hear everything is going well. you sound like you have all adjusted into your new life perfectly xx

 

[brumgirl81]

Glad everyone okay! I have a bit to catch up on lol!!

Brum girl I looked at the perfect prep machines but was unsure! So you think get one?
Do you use it for night feeds, as night feeds are my worry lol don't ask me why hahah xx

Yep it'd a godsend for the night feeds, 2 mins or less and bottle is done and at perfect temperature!
