Hey rach, sorry that you feel so bad again I have had a really busy weekend, it was MIL 60th biorthday yesterday, Friday night we went out for a meal and organised a limo - everyone was drinking the champers except me we had finished our meal by 9.30pm and the limo wasn't picking us up again till 11.15pm - but it didn't turn up till midnight, I was shattered and had a really bad back ache from sitting in the hard chairs - everyone else was drinking so I bet the time went really quickly for them.

We organised a surprise party for her last night, so spent all Saturday rushing round sorting out balloons, food and decorating the function room - the party was great, everyone enjoyed themselves but again it was another late night, didn't get home till after midnight - I am really really tired today, aagh!!!!

Am going to go to Tesco shortly and get some chicken and veg for dinner - making the dinner myself today which at this moment I really can't be bothered with!!!

Have a good day and I hope you feel better soon...

thanks lindsay hun think am finally on the mend after spending most of my time in bed since thursday not back in work till tuesday so got today and 2moro to get better. sounds like youve had a fun but tiring weekend
wow can you believe its only 2 weeks and we will both be in the third trimester? am starting to get a little nervous now about the birth i dont know if its worse this time or better i thought it would be better as ive been through it all before so know what to expect but all i can think about at the moment is the birth of my son even though i know all pregnancies and labours are different it can still be a bit off putting worrying that my labour might be as bad as last time hope you have a good day xxxxxxx

Hi Rach I know I can't believe that the third trimester is nearly upon us, it's scary and exciting all at the same time. I am absolutley petrified about the whole giving birth thing, really scared but as my dad told me the baby can't stay inside forever!!

[rach]

thats true lindsay hun oh well not much longer now xxx

 

[rach]

well flu is almost gone just left with a bit of a chest infection now on the whole feeling pretty good
seen midwife today and oh my god am measuring at 32 weeks midwife said its prob as im carrying high but might have to have another scan to check size of baby before its due heard heart beat again ooh its lovely so clear head is down although this means nothing at this stage urine clear blood pressure perfect (not low like last time) got a few exercises for hip pain and lots of advice to try and prevent it getting any worse so all in all a good visit just concern over a maybe large baby lol dont have to see midwife again now till 30 weeks as i got diabetes test at hospital at 28 weeks and they will do my iron tests at same time
hope everyone else is well xxxxxxx

Have been going to meetings that are quarterly, the next ones that they were scheduling were in May when I will be on maternity leave, made me feel great - although we still have a while to go, it should come round really quickly!!

well girls dont know whats wrong with me today got up at 5 this morning crying and still cant stop and its now gone 7 what on earth is wrong with me got to go work at 10 so need to try and sort myself out just cant stop crying feel like everything is terrible am sat here thinking all sorts of rubbish about my life oh my god somebody give me a slap feel like going to bed and staying there forever sorry to moan just needed to get it out of my system perhaps better if i do go bed xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

[Lindsay]

Oh sweetie hormones are wonderful things aren't they, one minute your up the next your down, DH says that he sometimes feels like he is living with jekyl and hyde, lol!!!!! If you can't face work then ring in sick and get back into bed and curl up under the covers for as long as you like, does the trick for me!!! Am here to talk if you need to..........

Xxx

 

[rach]

thanks lindsay hun dont know whats up with me today did go to work thought it would occupy my mind a bit managed to stop crying while in work got home and burst into tears again not so bad this afternoon though think im just gonna lie on sofa the rest of the day under the duvet and watch films on sky im probably just over tired sorry to be such a miserable cow xxxx

 

[Lindsay]

Don't be apologising sweetie, there really is no need!

I started the day in a strop because DH told me that one of the lads he works with had got a transfer and so was having his leaving do next Friday night - now normally this wouldn't have bothered me but for some reason I went off it he will be working nights Saturday and Sunday and out on Friday so I wouldn't see him all weekend, I think what is getting to me the most is that no-one bothers with me anymore, it's like since the girls found out that I was PG they haven't asked me to do anything so I am always in the house. Anyway Dh rang me from work tonight and told me that he had put in a public holiday next Saturday so would be off work now, what a witch I am hope I wake up in a better mood tomorrow!!

Anyway after having our argument this morning (which continued all the way in the car!!) we went into town and bought stuff for the nursery, this made me feel happier my brother is going to get us on wireless next week so that we can start to decorate the what is now computer room into a nursery, whohoo we have gone for the Zeddy and Rhubarb range, painting the walls buttermilk and putting the border round - will post a piccie when it's finished!!

Right, am off to bed now - possibly my tiredness is adding to my being irrational, night night hope you feel happier tomorrow too!
