*** July mummies to be ***

[Aurora_J]

Apparently its ment to be cooler tomorrow. I just hoovered the front room and i'm sweating like mad.

 

[Onedaysoon25]

I'm booked in for the 7th but I have a strong feeling she will turn, don't know why.

Def suffering with swollen feet and legs from this heat, shade is my friend x

 

[JulyBug]

FX'd she turns for you, there's still time!

I'm chilling in a nice cool bath, it's lovely.. really hoping it's cooler tomorrow, can't handle much more of this heat!

xx

 

[Aurora_J]

Well its now raining here. Heartburn seems to have got really bad this week

 

[SalisburyMum]

I'm so glad it's cooler!!

I'm not sure why they need to book in a Caesarian for a breech, surely better to allow the body to naturally go into labour then do Caesarian if baby hasn't turned?

Today I've been and had a nude photoshoot done, I've spent a little time pottering in my front garden (which is actually all I really WANT to do) and have made a list of things for the weekend.

Going to take the kids to climbing club, which means bath and bedtime later on my own (husband doesn't come round on Thursdays) and I will fall into bed tonight!!!

Tomorrow morning is equally busy but then a blessed weekend of family and (hopefully) moderate sunshine!!

 

[JulyBug]

Very very crampy today, woke up with all sorts of aches and pains, hip pain kept me up last night so exhausted today.

Already getting a bit fed up being off work.. it's so boring! Especially when your limited to what you can do.

I feel like such a slob just sitting around..

[Aurora_J]

I woke up with intense pain thought it might be the start of things but it stopped as usual. The next 10 days are going to drag.

 

[SalisburyMum]

July I am bored stupid too. I don't know how people CHOOSE to live like this!! At least it's cooler today/over the weekend so I can get in the garden xx

 

[SalisburyMum]

Baby dropped last night (and made a right song and dance over it.

Well looking forward to a lie in!

 

[JulyBug]

I agree, so glad its cooled down, lovely and sunny but with a nice breeze.

I'm getting pains down below every time this LO moves, having lots of period type pains too, guess it's everything just getting ready.. feeling pretty nervous now!.. Feel like I'm a ticking time bomb.

[Aurora_J]

I agree with you Salisburys mum how do people manage being at home all day not have jobs i would be bored out of my mind.

 

[SalisburyMum]

I just need her to stay in another week so we are all cleared for a home birth...

But I hope she stays in til nearer the due date!!

 

[Ab202]

Feeling very sorry for myself at the moment!

Lower stomach feels really groggy like it does when I'm about to start a monster period, I'm getting a silly amount of pressure on my cervix and in my bum (sorry!) and I feel really rubbish and unwell

Anyone else feel like this? Having lots of period pains that affect my stomach and my back and lots of Braxton Hicks but nothing regular or productive yet!

 

[Aurora_J]

The sharp stabbing pain in the bum is horrible. Dont know whats worse the constant pain in the cervix or the bum.

 

[Ab202]

Haha it's awful isn't it! I'm 38+2 today and soooo ready to have this baby!

 

[SalisburyMum]

The constant clawing at my cervix is a little uncomfortable I have to say!!!

She's fortunately been awake a bit more today, so I can actually get s decent nights sleep tonight I hope!!!

 

[Aurora_J]

3.20am and im wide awake. Woke up because i had rolled on my back and now cant get back to sleep.

 

[JulyBug]

I had an awful nights sleep! My stomach got really itchy again, it seems to flare up at night and itches like mad if anything touches my bump, the only way it eases is if I lay on my back with no cover!? So annoying.

Also feeling a bit rubbish today!

I had the worst night ever last night. Back ache and cramps and then puked up a whole load of stomach acid. Now spent 90% of the day on the loo with really loose poop (tmi). Got bad daggers too. Wondering if this is the start of something but not 37weeks until Monday. Anyone anything similar? Had a section last time so never experienced labour or anything so don't know what to expect.

 

[Aurora_J]

Good morning Shayton have things settled down since yesterday?

Ive been having loose stools for a few weeks now i think from around 36 weeks. Usually get period like cramps in the evenings but settles down eventually. It does mean your body is getting ready, gets my hopes up everytime that baby may be on its way and then nothing happens.
