Feeling The Strain!

[dannii87]

I went to a BBQ today, I stole the spotlight It was my cousin's 18th and everyone seemed more interested in seeing the 4D scan pics lol It wasn't my fault!! Though I did make sure I took the BabyBond bag in the garden with me so people asked what it was

Anyway, now that I have made my confession to you all about being a limelight hogger, I thought I would have my first 3rd Tri rant

I ate quite a bit (see below )... When I stood up my back really ached and I got hiccups which were pretty painful because when I eat a little more than usual, it's quite painful to breath in, especially sharply when you have hiccups! I also felt really off balance like the food I had eaten was tipping me off centre Wierd..

Anyway, so yeah, little rant about feeling the strain of the latter part of pregnancy... Grrr.

Maybe I should have cut out the 5 cheeseburgers, cheesecake and 2 hotdogs I ate!!

(No really, I actually ate that much )

I wouldn't worry about what you ate - i just looked at that and thought, mmm - I could just eat a cheeseburger. Is it too late to start cooking suasages I wonder?

I think trapped wind of ALL varieties is something we have to put up with. Hiccups, burping and the other, ( ), are rife on here.

Your pictures were lovely as well so you should be showing them off.

as long as you enjoyed yourself

one thing i would recommend is a bump band, i started feeling the weight from my bump when i'd be out shopping etc, my back would be agony. i got one of these -

I'm always eating like a pig, even though i know once little man is here i have my work cut out for me to lose it all again.

Yeah i am struggling with back ache constantly and pevic ache aswell, its a complete pain in the arse, i wear a support belt that was given me by physio, its not the same as the bump band but im guessing they are along the same lines. And it is a Life saver, especially when walking around.

Those bump band are amazing!!! I've been wearing mine since before leaving 2nd tri and i never really get back ache. I've also noticed that if i leave it off for any length of time it does begin to ache.

My midwife also thought it was amazing and had never seen one before, she didnt even realise toy r us sold them!

Our local one always has loads in stock, if not then theres internet sites thats sell them too. Mines off the internet but its the exact same one toys r us sell.

I wouldnt be concerned about food, i felt sick from eating too much last nite too

Don't worry about the amount you ate Dannii - it's prob the only time that we can eat lots and lots without looking too greedy

Xxx

Aww chick!! Forget the bump band...Elvis just wore jumpsuits when he ate all his burgers!!!

I am seriously feeling the strain already though.

Had bad problems with my hips and knees (arthritis) since I was 14, and now the weight is really taking it's toll...OH has to keep pushing me up hills, I walk so embaressing slow now!! x

I too am starting to feel the strain...especially if I'm running late for the train. So I ordered some the other day hoping that they will stop my bump lurching around if I walk at a reasonable pace. hope they work!

Seriously I did!! Not all at once, I was there for a while lol the hotdogs were really small and I didn't have much of the cheesecake, only about 7 slices (only joking!) nope, I didn't eat that much of the cheesecake

Thanks Bubalu! I'm going to order them now!!

I get pushed up the stairs by my bum now!! And i can tell i annoy shoppers in town etc with walking too slowly, worst thing is they cant tell it's cos i'm pregnant from behind and will push their way around me

Thing is, to me, i'm walking really quickly!!
