*** July mummies to be ***

[SalisburyMum]

God I am in So Much Pain this evening! Still loving the heat though (sorry ladies who are suffering)

Room is now prepped for painting this weekend, which I am So Excited about!

Mums coming on Tuesday so I'm going to take her curtain shopping, which will really help too. Just hope Mat pay comes in

 

[SalisburyMum]

Okay every poo has become a mini labour... I think once I've completed my chores today, I'm going to smash a load of senakot and see if I can release the bowels!!

Also going to add 3 pieces of fruit to my day

 

[JulyBug]

I've not been constipated once - usually the opposite!

I do eat a lot of fruit so maybe that's why.

OH busy getting on with building works, not much I can really do so all I can do is lounge around - so boring though! I'd usually be getting stuck in and helping but no-one let's you do anything when your pregnant! Lol

Oh aurora, I hope you're okay! When did that happen? Fingers crossed all is okay xxx

 

[SalisburyMum]

Oh No, Aurora! Keep in touch xx

Baby is well cushioned but glad you're getting checked out xx

I have just had a second letter from DWP, they have asked me when I plan to finish working. I finished working on the 29th April!!!! I NEED to get some money sorted I've been relying on everyone else for bloody money!

I've had not a cent from them and its been a month and a half!

They have said I will get the full £140 a week though, which is a bonus but man, how long until I get some cash in? I've so much I need to buy!!

I need a baby chair, a breast pump, I've not even got any cot bedding Its a bloody nightmare

 

[Meggiiiii]

Hope your alright Aurora!, I'm still lingering around just been very busy! I had a 4D scan the other day so glad I did as was unsure wether to do it but was definitely worth it. It's made me so excited now , 6 weeks to go! Xx

 

[JulyBug]

Oh no Aurora, I hope everythings ok xxx

 

[Aurora_J]

Looks like im staying in hospital till i can have a scan. My left leg and the left side of bump is badly bruisdd and baby heart rate was low during trace so they keeping an eye on me for now just incase.

 

[violet13]

Aurora, I hope all is okay. Keep us updated and rest, baby is well cushioned but the fact you've bruised so badly already is just awful hope little man is moving and things are better today xxx

 

[Aurora_J]

So tired today dont think i slept much with all the babies crying and the hourly checks.
Had some strong contractions according to the monitors so was given a steriod injection just in case but i didn't feel them so assume they wheee braxton hicks.

Phils got a plumber coming out today because i ripped tge bath off the wall when i fell, no idea how i managed that.

 

[Onedaysoon25]

Hope you're doing ok Aurora, sounds very painful. Must have been one hell of a fall to pull bath tub off the wall, or you are freakishly strong lol.
Hope baby is ok and stays out for a little while yet. Keep us posted x

 

[JulyBug]

Hope everything's ok Aurora and your resting and recovering xx

I'm exhausted today as usual.. sleeping very well but still waking up exhausted.

And the constant need to wee is driving me mad! I literally need to go again as soon as I've been!!

xx

 

[SalisburyMum]

Yay!! My room is painted!!

It's taken all weekend of sorting but things really seem to be coming together now

 

[JulyBug]

Looks lovely

Wish my house was coming together instead of coming apart - knocked another wall down this weekend ready for the stairs to go in.. it's great seeing progress but godddd it's messy work! Xx

 

[violet13]

I'm so tired. Ended up in tears this morning and screamed and the wall that ajoins next door I'm so fed up they've been banging and slamming doors since 6:30!! They woke up our toddler who began screaming and wouldn't settle I wouldn't mind if this wasn't a daily occurrence now I'm in bed by 9-10 every night and I'm sick of being woken up like this all the time even during our sons nap they slam around bang I've called the right people and complained time and time again so I'm now calling the council I've just reached breaking point. I can't hack this with a new born as well! Xxx

 

[JulyBug]

Oh Violet, I feel for you, you definitly shouldn't put up with it you can't live like that.

I'm finally getting my hospital bag finished, I'm just confused at to what clothes I need to take for myself? - This is probably a stupid question but when you go in do you get changed straight into a nighty etc? And after labour what do you usually change into, another nighty or normal clothes?

So far I've packed the essentials dressing gown underwear etc plus two nighties, a pair of comfy shorts and t-shirt and I suppose I need something to wear home? Does that sound ok? I could always ask OH to bring extra clothes but the chances of him bringing back anything suitable are slim! lol so would like to be as prepared as possible!

On my antenatal class they recommended a short dark sun dress as it will protect your modesty while also providing easy access where required. I've got a cheap black strapless one I'm taking with me and then a sports bra for the pool if I can get in it!

 

[JulyBug]

yes, I have a black nighty I'm thinking I'll just take a couple of basic comfy dresses for afterwards as it should be warm, I think that'll be most practical and comfy?

Getting lots of daggers and pressure down below atm, especially when I'm walking, I'm still walking the dogs twice a day but I may have to stop soon as its getting uncomfortable now.

[violet13]

I've got my nighties and pj pants and tops as I'll be kept in for 48 hours with baby due to blood sugars. Also my period knickers to hold my pads etc I slept most of today! So did my wee man, I had a day of continuous braxtons yesterday and had pains today too but lower bump and hips think he's getting ready xxx
