**** July 2014 Mummies ****

Nice bump Lauren, so nice when you finally get something to show off.

Are you ok fos? You weren't hurt or anything? Feeling like he taking baby's clothes off his back, he's bloody lucky he didn't put you and baby in the hospital so clothes should be the last of his bloody worries.

Who was doing baking the other day I forget? I have decided that at the weekend dd and I will be making cola cake and maybe blokey snickers cheesecake loaf. I seem to have lost my sweet tooth so wont be easting much of it but I have been inspired by thoughts of lemon drizzle cake.


I have never heard of cola cake!! Sounds amazing lol x
 
Hey ladies, hope you are all ok.

Fos- hope bump is ok??
Lovely bump Lauren!
Science mummy- sounds like you had a lovely day :) hope you enjoyed your mr whippy!
Sarah- hope you are feeling more rested! Did you go back to yor parents?

Thank you for all your well wishes, it means a lot. Nothing new today to be honest, had a call saying I had to be back at the hospital first thing for more testing- it's not obstetric liver problem, which is the issue, they don't know why my liver is so bad and so different from my last bloods a month ago :( they don't know anything, which means I don't know anything, other than if it gets worse then they will prepare for an early delivery. I'm a state, but trying to keep it together so that I'm remotely calm for bp etc. just so worried and feel like my body is failing. To keep the most precious thing to me safe and I can't do anything to stop it happening.
I felt completely fine yesterday, and had no idea this was going to happen. I have to say my family, husband and friends have been amazing, my husband took today off so I wasn't alone, as did my best friend. Operation distract Clare is a go. Xxx
 
Coz - yeah I'm fine thanks, he was going that fast I didn't have time to break harshly so just pulled over. Was more shaken up and mad about the whole thing! But my garage have been really good aswell and trying to find me a deal! Thanks for asking though, you ok??

Sarah - he does sound like a prince! You actually married Prince Charming, you sure your not Cinderella? Lol! Yeah things are better thanks, he hasn't gambled as far as I'm aware, and even though I'm finding trusting him hard, he understands and is very open! Also it seems to have opened up a new communication channel between us and we talk more than we did before, which is always a bonus! Still leaving him in charge of some things so he can prove himself, but just keeping a close eye on him! A little further with book, just started on the hypnosis part xxx

Clare - really hope it's better news for you tomorrow love! What ace family and friends you've got! Just see every extra day as an extra day your baby is growing inside you and getting stronger! Xxx
 
Coz it was me doing the baking the other day like Fos said then doing the eating if you see pregzilla around that's me ;) this weekend I am making baked doughnuts with my stepson and Friday we are making Easter eggs for family etc x
 
Hi all,

Busy day had today but a nice one! Think baby is fine after emergency stop, lots of wriggling tonight. DD had a nice day with a friend she hasn't seen for ages, they met at gymnastics but her friend was moved up to an advanced pre school class without Phoebe (I think because she goes to school this year whereas Phoebe has another year before that happens). So they hadn't seen each other since but they are running classes that anyone in the age group can go to over Easter so they went together. Was lovely. Then had lunch together and a lazy afternoon, got lots of phone calls done that I needed too. Really tired from last night though.

MW tomorrow - my appointments seem to be out. I'm 26 weeks and have an appointment tomorrow. Had my last appointment at 22 weeks. She's going to have to give me a 28 week appointment though as they want my bloods done then.

Oh and I finally have an appointment for physio. Not until the 7th may but at least I have one!!

Sleep well all xx

Sarah - glad Super hubby came to the rescue. I was talking about 2 different friends. First one I saw on Sunday, left when DD had an accident and no longer on FB but luckily nothing to do with me.

Friend I saw yesterday was my very best friend for years. Then the year DD was born she had an affair and led me to believe the awkwardness between us was due to a falling out that she'd had with my brother and allowed me to fall out with my brother over it too when the whole time he was right in saying she was going to have an affair. (He said she'd come on to him, I didn't believe she'd ever hurt her husband like that, 9 months later it turned out she was having an affair in their bed with a man old enough to be her father that she'd met on Twitter). I've kept in contact with her for the kids' sake (she's got two by now ex-husband) but all my family disapprove of me staying 'friends' with her so it's really awkward and TBH I don't want to hear about her relationship with this man that promised to move in with her when she left her husband and still lives in London with his wife and children. So there's not a lot to talk about! xx


Sozzy - Happy 26 weeks! Thanks for earlier post, no pain and lots of movement from bump this evening so think all is fine. Thanks though xx


Kate - Wish I could wear maxi dresses but I'm so short they're always too long on me! Glad you had a good day! xx

Fos - Sorry to hear about the car! Glad you are ok and got something for it though xx

Lauren - Great bump! xx

Clare - glad you've got a lot of support around you. Remember what we all said to Rhea when she said her body was failing to keep her baby safe - we all told her it wasn't her fault and there was nothing she could have done differently. It's the same for you. You've done everything you can to keep baby safe. We're all here for you and we're all sending you lots of good vibes. Take care xx
 
Thanks ladies you don't think I'm too big for 6 months? Xxxx

No not at all doll, I was massive my last pregnancy, bigger than that. And I'm a tiny person (5'2)!

Not as big this time, but still got a sizeable bump now xx
 
25 weeks today xx

Size doesn't mean a lot anyway. I was measuring small with DD, they said she'd be 7-8 pounds and came out as 8 pounds 13! Don't worry about it! xx

Ditto other way around, I was big but she came out 7lb13! xx
 
Phoebes_mum Omg drama much!! Bloody hell that's all a bit crazy lol

Anyone else just completely off sex? I want it but really passively lol in never horny but the thought of it isn't bad... Just feel too much of a beached whale to contemplate doing anything about it and not gagging for it so feel I can go without. Feel bad for hubby but not enough to make myself do anything lol

I love my bump and how I look in clothes but naked I just feel huge and so ugly. Even though he constantly tells me how sexy he finds me... I just don't feel it :-/
 
This is me in April 2012 and today, 25 week comparison! Definitely bigger last time but I don't feel small so I'm fine with it! xx

Sozzy, Sarah last time we tried terrible pain in my hip that I couldn't help but let him know about which didn't help!

Just back from midwife. All good but I'm measuring 28 weeks rather than 26. She says it's fine. I hope it doesn't mess up my 3D scan!

Got a recording of heartbeat today. Tried last time but got interference from phone so hubby told me to put it in flight mode and that worked!

Going to try and attach it then you can see if you think train or horse as we're team yellow! Hmm not sure it will work :(

Hey everyone. Just popping my head in to say hi after a manic and exhausting week of work. Resting up now with a few days leave for my birthday tomorrow.

Hope you are all coping. I'll say coping rather than well as at a glance looks as though a few are having issues at the moment!

I guess we're all into tri 3 over the next week or so.

Gosh. Not long now till we meet our little ones.

xxx
