I would have kicked off at the woman tbh. Honestly why a little old lady would need a big car like that god knows.

 

[_GG_]

I would hope the police got involved and she's sent for an assessment. Not knowing the car is not good enough. All cars have handbrakes. She shouldn't be driving if she's not capable.

By the way, Janey, nice to hear from you and I really hope things start getting better soon.

 

[malagueta]

Yes, there were witnesses that called the police and they were taking statements. Turns out the woman only got her licence 5 years ago as well. Her husband showed up too and went ballistic at her haha.

 

[Shanivy]

Mala so glad you're okay after that, I'm sure it was terrifying xx

Thanks for the well wishes ladies. Appointment didn't go so well here. Ketones at 4, I'm not sure what they go up to. Got a right bollocking from midwife for not calling triage. High pulse and bp so away up to the hospital for iv fluids now? She offered getting me an ambulance but had to come home and sort Ivy out first so heading now. Plus felt a little unnecessary. Anyone know how long those drips take? Baby is happy, head down and measuring at 32 now though so there's that. Mentioned my moods, anxiety and got upset too so in the end the appointment was almost 90 minutes

 

[PeanutButter]

Awh shan I've no idea how long they take. She probably offered ambulance to save you having to get there yourself. Hope it makes you feel better though. Really are in the wars with this pregnancy, she's making you work for her lol.

 

[PeanutButter]

Period pain and back pain has seems to have got worse today. Hope baby is dropping more.
Are you ladies proping yourself after sex yet for the semen to pool around the cervix? Might start now with my vag massage oil aha

 

[_GG_]

Oh my Shan, you're really not having a good time of it are you? Hope the drip doesn't last too long. X

 

[KHTW]

Oh Shan! Hopefully you'll be out in no time xx Glad you are being looked after tho xx

 

[malagueta]

Hope things go quickly Shan. I'm glad you made full use of your appointment though - 90 minutes, that's what they're there for. Hope you feel a bit better having spoken to someone about your low moods.

 

[KHTW]

How are you doing Shan?? Still at the hospital??xx

 

[JemRose]

Omg I'm sure we're the most unlucky bunch when it comes to pregnancy!!! Sorry to hear about pretty much everyone's shit time of it lately, hope it all gets better soon!!!

PB I have absolutely no clue what you're on about haha but I can barely reach my vagina anymore so no probing it after sex, if I was even having sex haha.

Has anyone ever had this feeling that baby is gonna come early? I just have this instinct that he's gonna come before I'm due and OH feels the same. Knowing my luck he'll be late, but I just can't shake the feeling that he'll be early! X

 

[Shepherdess]

Haha Jem I honestly thought that last pregnancy, and everyone else did to as I carried so low from 32 weeks but then I went 9 days over

Shanivy I hope you're okay, update us when you can what a time you're having

PB I've never heard of that, don't think I'll try it. I will start with my massage oil next week. I've stopped my raspberry leaf tea as baby is breech, I don't know if I need to but it says don't use if youve had a previous breech baby so I figured I should stop

Personally I don't mind her coming late I just want a smoother birth

Just had fish and chips for tea, that's two Fridays in a row, which for me is very naughty. I love cooking and try to avoid takeaways. Oh has had a well earned afternoon off in the pub with his friends, I'm about to pick him up and he's not drank since February so God knows what state he'll be in, hopefully not spewing or my fish and chips will make a re-appearence to

 

[Shanivy]

Been home about a half hour. They were very thorough. Gave me three doses of IV fluids. Bp is okay, pulse rate is high but they said that's expected with how dehydrated I am. Keytones were high and blood sugar was low so have to force down some jam on toast with the anti sickness meds.. Had to give a stool sample too which was lovely! And bloods show markers for an infection apparently. But anyway they gave me medication and if I don't feel better by tomorrow I'm back in for admission so going to do as I'm told to try avoiding that

Baby however went on a trace and is absolutely fine. They said as ill as I am it takes a lot for her to be affected. Her heart rate was normal and she was throwing herself around happily the whole time. I feel better knowing she's fine. Gonna throw myself back in bed, the hospital ride is awful and my back is killing me being in a low car through the fking potholes and speed bumps

 

[Shanivy]

PB ew lol but I told OH as soon as I'm full term we will be having sex a lot. I don't know if the sperm will actually make a difference to soften my cervix but I want her out so I'll try anything xx

 

[JemRose]

Shan what a nightmare of a day!! Get yourself into bed and relax! X

 

[Shanivy]

Thanks Jem, already been put in bed by my 4 year old lol. Oh as to feeling as if I'm going early, I did think that too, but knowing my luck I'll be still here 2 weeks over! Xx

Shep hope he's not too drunk when he gets home! I bet he does deserve it but I have no patience looking after drunk people at all lol xx

 

[PeanutButter]

Lmfao. No not at the same time hahahaha..
Like have sex and lay on a pillow so the sperm gets near your cervix. Before or on a different day massage with that oil stuff. I did think when I posted it if I should change how I wrote it.

 

[Shanivy]

Ahhh right haha. Got you, I did that ttc for this baby lol. I thought you meant playing around with the sperm after sex I was like huh? May try doing propping up again too...I'll be trying anything, pregnancy has not been kind this time around! As long as she's fully cooked I'm happy to evict Xx

Does that kind of thing work if you're having sex all the way through pregnancy?

Last pregnancy I walked 2 miles a day all the way until she was born and had sex 2/3 times a week so figured my body was so used to it which is why nothing I tried made her come early

 

[Shepherdess]

Glad you're home shaivy! Bless dd for putting you to bed, I really hope you feel better soon

My husband is in bed now lol. He was in a good mood when I got there, DD and I joined them in the beer garden for one before we came home. Came in the house, made dds wheatabix for her supper and when I walked through they were both curled up in my bed haha
