****July 2018 Mummies - Tri 2****

Morning ladies.

Enya, I feel for you. When my best friends kids were all undee 10 years old, they all had norovirus at the same time on top of already having colds. Friend had it too so I went and stayed for a few days. OH MY GOD!!! Sometimes, being a bit of loudmouth is useful, they all got ordered into their beds, I ordered potties from a local hardware shop and paid them to deliver within the hour so friend and all kids got a potty by the bed for sick. They all had a bin put next to the potties and a roll of kitchen paper for snot (or bottoms, hence the potties with 5 I'll and two toilets).
It was just non stop emptying things of bodily fluids and chucking them under the shower repeatedly. How I didn't catch either the cold or norovirus then, I have no idea. Two months later, I went to see my dad in hospital, I touched a fucking trolley...next day, bang, norovirus!

I really hope your babies are all better soon as I wouldn't wish that chaos on anyone.

Shan, I get quite strong tightening if I've done too much. Lasts anywhere from a minute to half an hour and is my cue to chill out a bit.
Hope the appointment goes well

Shep, hope you have a lovely afternoon with dd throwing glitter at each other, lol.

I've now forgotten everything else, lol.

Oh, car...yes, I need a new one too. Been looking at the Nissan Quashqai or however you bloody spell it. Not new, but new to me. It'll be something like that or a half decent pick up.
 
GG I love the Nissan Quashqai!!!
My mum has a Renault Kadjar which is quite similar and it's beautiful.

I love cars like that, but OH is more into estate cars etc, which I hate! He can't even drive so he shouldn't get a say lol x

Hahaa, we already have an insignia estate and it's awesome. Ideally, it will be a pick up as I can still use the flatbed for horsey/farm stuff but we do have the land rover for that. That's not baby friendly though as we removed the back seats years ago. It's a proper farm truck now, lol.
 
I do like the Insignia actually, but I don't like estate cars because I can barely manage to drive my tiny Corsa Sport haha x
 
Yep we have a 3 door old corsa too, I'm dreading it!! It's a sport edition too and it's difficult to even get something off the back seat if I chuck something back there.

My car seat isn't Isofix either, don't think my car is compatible with isofix either. So we've got a seatbelt one and just going to have to make do until we can afford a different car. It's definitely near the top of our list of things to get though, just so expensive!
Oh yes haha we have a running joke that things go into the back of our car to die cuz u can be sure if it gets chucked there it won't come out for like 3 months haha we tend to never put anything there cuz we know it's such a bugger to get out xx

My hubby doesn't drive either and he left the car choice entire up to me. Of course I will ask for his opinion, it matters to me he like the car but at the end I will make the decision.

We are looking at Vauxhall Zafira Tourer. It is a 7 seater when you need it (like when my mum visits) or if you fold the extra seats you get a huge boot space. It is not pretty but it will do the job like a pro :D

We have a sporty Corsa and the most difficult thing was taking the car seat in and out of the car - it literally gets stuck and you have to pull-push to get it out!!!! And the boot space is just a joke x

Well no heartbeat today. A bit gutted. OH came and sat outside just incase and it didn't get done and with all the other stuff I forgot.

I met my other midwife today and she's lovely. She's from Belfast too so that was weird. Literally knew all the same places I did lol. She's the one into the homebirths so we discussed it a bit today. I'm so tempted with the pool at home seriously. She doesn't think I'll move from the green pathway so wants to come out when I'm a bit further on to go through it all and see what I think

BP was good. She's not concerned about my weight at all. Which is good because they were the two things I was worried about. But said my sugars in the last bloods were a bit high for my weight so she wants me to do the gtt on 6 Feb I think:/


Also got booked in for whooping cough for wed? Anyone else?

Mentioned the tightening and she said it could be my uterus still moving out of my pelvis. And that it's probably nothing. But if it happens another 3 times today to phone triage and get checked because it's a bit too early for Braxton hicks? I don't know what to think about that

That's nice! I hope you get your home birth. Did they listen to HB?
I get tightening aslo, usually on the right side only?

Is it weird that I was not ask to get on the scales???

Lol you always quote me before I edit my posts haha. No! With everything we went through today I forgot about the hb until I walked out to the waiting room and saw OH lol. I'm not going to hear anything now until my next appointment. Gutted now though :/

They didn't ask me to get on the scales either. She said I'm safe to put in 2 stone before it's an issue so maybe with 2nd they aren't as fussed? Have they asked you to get whooping cough yet? Xx

Hahaaa, I mentioned a 7 seater to Dan and he said, I quote, "fuck no, we'd have room for my family then, they can use their own car and give us some fucking peace" lol.

You're tiny and definitely look pregnant in this lol. Seriously cute bump xx


I wish it would bloody stay though ha! Xx

Ooh see what you mean about the difference that is weird. I've too much stomach weight to notice if mine does this or not haha. Its probably totally normal though Xx

Its odd isn’t it! Normally happens after a little cramping. I really think it must be to do with the strain over the day of holding it into place and by evening my bodies gone fuck it just let it drop haha! Im not worried about it, just annoying as by this point with my other 3 that tiny bump was here to stay! Im sure if be sayin different in a few weeks!

I have a vaxhaul zafira 7 seater but with my brood i need it! Only down side it the extra seats are in the boot space, so once they r up it leaves u with a tiny boot! I could JUST fit my pram base in it althtough squashing it in there did damage it a little but nothing that effcted use. I love my car, its cheap to run and fits us lot in nicely x
