[mrsolly]

Me 2. I'm knackered with the shifts and feel so uncomfy sitting behind the desks at work x

 

[tilly16]

Hello girlies!!! I'm in a very good mood today, 2 shifts left at work, get to see little bubs again tomorrow, mums made our tea and just come to my parents to pick tea up no one is home meaning I can push my pram around and no one is here to judge me ha!!! Not even my boat feet or candles can ruin my mood today xxx

 

[Bbybump16]

I'm waiting for oh to go food shopping I don't want too

 

[kim88]

My last week to and in wishing it away lol. Want to be at home sorting things out, im in nesting mode xx

 

[MiniVoid]

I've gone from nesting mode to being utterly shattered mode! Had to force myself to go shopping! Almost in tears at the bus stop haha but it's done now and now I need to find motivation to put some food on as I'm starving and put the laundry up on the radiator and stuff cause the sun is gone no more lines In case it has to be rushed back in when the manc weather decides to show!

 

[kim88]

Trying to do the last bits before shattered mode kicks in, i can feel it coming and i have a lot to do!
I know wish the weather would make its mind up, knew it would go rubbish ready for maternity leave! Typical! X

 

[MiniVoid]

You'll just see the sun will shine and the whole of England will be barbequeing while we're in the middle of labour! It's just so typical! I put my best bet on the washing line really couldnt be bothered with our ******* radiator and getting the house all humid!

 

[kim88]

oh god i don't think id like it to be boiling hot when im in labour, hospitals arnt the most cool of places at the best of times.

Im about to TMI but does it hurt anyone else when you have a number 2? Like my lower part of ny belly cramped up it was really unpleasant. If that's anythin what being in labour feels like i am now scared lol xx

 

[Bellarina]

Just got back from my consultant appointment!!
GOOD NEWS!!!

Im allowed to stay on midwifery led care YAY!!

Shes happy with everything, aslong as i dont have anymore reduced movement in the next 3weeks i can stay on MLC and have my waterbirth so happy!
I have an appointment in my due date with her again just to see if all is well.
She has said if i do get anymore reduced movement theres a high chance theyll just induce me. His measurements are fine as im talk and so is OH so they think hell be a chunk hehe!

But yeah all in all im a happy girly! Just hope he arrives in the next 3weeks lol xxx

thats wonderful news hun!!! so pleased it all went well xxx

Eeeeeeekkkkkkk!!

We have just got a date for our new house.. the 28th June!

I am so happy its unreal as I really thought we would be with MIL & FIL for a few months after Harrison was born and I was dreading the inevitable strain that was going to bring. But now its only going to be a few weeks at most & maybe not atall if he stays put!

Oh my jeez that has cheered me right up!

I will finally get my own kitchen!!

(We were house sharing for 18 months before moving in with the his parents so I havent had my own kitchen in nearly 2 years! - its the little things ey?!)

awe how fab is that hun!!! hope baby stays put and gives u chance to get moved in and settled before making an appearance xxx

Hey ladies just another update for you been in today to be monitored still getting pains and babies movement had reduced dramatically, they are sure I'm not in labour (yay!) and think I am getting braxton hicks as the baby moves which is disguising them still not sure what the pains are they are putting it down to the way baby is laying. Iv been in 3 times now for reduced movement so have a scan on Wednesday to check on bubs not sure if I will have the opportunity but very tempted to find out if its pink or blue xxxx

good luck for ur scan tomorrow hun xxx

Dani that's great news about mw led care!

Tilly I would be tempted to find out what team I was but then I couldn't wait so found out at 20 weeks lol

Girls, I'm really not getting any sleep at all, I'm in agony when I lie down, my bump and back are so sore its really making me miserable. Its my last week at work thank god but found myself really irritable and teary today. Feel like my colleagues must think I'm a diva. I almost burst out crying cos someone turned off the air con and I was boiling! Anyone else struggling with sleep and feeling emotional? Or am I the only hormonal nutter?

im hardly sleeping at all hun, feel wide awae constantly...and the PGP and bad back isnt helping matters either xxx



well girls it was my last day of work yesterday....and wont be going back after mat leave as redundant now collegues got me a card, bunch of flowers, £40 mothercare voucher, and a baby tatty ted dressing gown, so cute.

got in from work last night tho, and even tho my ankles and feet have been really swollen for about a week now....wen i got in last night they were like baloons and wen i took my shoes off and walked barefoot they felt like they were vibrating, so mum got me on sofa with fet stacked up on cushions and took my blood pressure (slightly higehr than normal)....i txt mw and she said t keep an eye on bp and if i get blurred vision or headaches i gotta go to hospital.
got an appt with her tomorro so see what she says whe she sees me. iv been good today tho and had feet up all day and swelling gone down quite a bit but feet are really painful wen i walk.

anyway hope ur all ok xxx

 

[Kay Kay]

Kim yep I'm the same with my no 2s, they have gone weird (soft) and all sore and crampy when I umm, squeeze. It has crossed my mind about labour a few times, sure it'll be much worse than squeezing out a poo lol (sorry ladies) its also such a weird feeling when you're on the toilet and baby is kicking and moving around! Too much going on at once! I'll stop talking about bowel movements now hehe.

Bella sorry you're in pain hun. You're doing the right thing elevating your feet. Do they feel hot too? I had that last week when the weather was really warm, my oh wrapped my feet in cold wet flannels which helped. Hope they go down soon, at least you're finished work now yaaaay

 

[kim88]

I know i was thinking if i cant cope with this pain im guna struggle haha. Yeh it is strange when they move when you are on the loo, its like they are thinking yay more room at last lol xx

 

[Clairabelle]

Ooh I'm so envious that this is the last week of work for so many of you ladies. I've still got 2 weeks after this one and I'm starting to really struggle now. I'm so uncomfortable and not sleeping well. I'm literally getting up for a wee every hour !! What with lack of sleep and my raging hormones I'm constantly on the verge of tears at the moment.

On a brighter note had another growth scan yesterday and my little fatty is already 5lb 11oz with another 6 weeks to go !! Hope she slows down a bit lol. she is also head down again which I'm really pleased about cos at my antenatal last week midwife said she had turned and was breech !!

As for bowel movements, after my experience trying to push my mega poo out last week childbirth is defo gonna feel a lot easier lmao xx

 

[Bbybump16]

Sara Louise when's your next scan I wonder if our baby's have been good and are growing

 

[SaraLouise]

Thursday at 12.30pm, I'm soo nervous I really hope he's doing okay!

It feels like I'm just counting down to it at the moment haha, although I do think my bump has grown a little soiI'm holding out hope.

How about you? X

 

[Bbybump16]

I tried to measure my bump few days ago seemed the same but it seems to have popped today my scans not to Tuesday !! X

 

[SaraLouise]

Yeah I tried measuring mine today & I think its gone up by 1cm, but I'm not sure.. I'm feeling a bit more positive about the whole thing though, as I think even if he does have to come out early I know he will be okay

 

[Bbybump16]

I had this happen with my first and he was 7 pound I got told he was going to be small x
