*** June 2015 Mummies ***

[Lucyboo]

Aww I feel your pain with the heartburn... Gaviscon is amazing though.

We have decided I'm going to call MW first thing in the morning as bubba's kicks still are a bit all over the place. Yesterday all day had kicks like crazy..today still having kicks just not in any sort of pattern, just need reassuring.

 

[xxcharliexx]

My little one doesn't have a routine either. I don't get many kicks, mainly get stretches now because he has no room. I lay in the bath today and could see my tummy moving loads but some movements I could barely feel so I think maybe I'm just not noticing as much.

Best to get reassurance tho Lucy! Let us know what she says xx

 

[Ionaprie]

Hello all! I've been lurking around tri 3 for a few days but thought I'd ought to go official!! I can't actually believe we're here in the final trimester! How ridiculously quick has that gone!?!

Pants wise (good topic) my most comfortable ones are definitely my blooming marvellous seam free from motherboard. Well and truly granny pants Belfa, but THE most comforts ever!! Nearly keep my boobs warm too they're that high, but the extra support I get from them makes the slightly hideous appearance all worthwhile

 

[xxcharliexx]

I love my big Knicks haha! Mine are under bump tho. I've got some lovely over bump ones from matalan tho for after my section. Big Knicks are the best hahaha xx

 

[Rachyroo]

Im still in my normal pants....am I missing out on somethng quite exciting? Should I join the big pants party?

 

[emmababy1]

I'm still in My normal pants too, I feel like I'm missing out!

Well I had to go to hospital after my midwife check yesterday as my blood pressure was too high. Got to be monitored and maybe put on medication after next week. Might go some way to explaining the bad headaches though! This hasn't been an easy pregnancy, don't know if I'll ha've anymore after this little Angel arrives!

 

[xxcharliexx]

Haha big pants party!

I love nothing more than getting in from work, putting a baggy tshirt on (although they are not so baggy now) and just having my big pants on! Pure comfort! Xx

 

[Rachyroo]

Haha, Charlie, you may have just sold me!

Hang in there Emma, not long to go now x

 

[xxcharliexx]

Ahh Emma hope your ok! Hopefully will get sorted and you can enjoy the last few weeks as much as possible xx not long to go!

 

[emmababy1]

Not long at all. I can't wait to meet our girl now, ready for cuddles!.
I'm thinking that buying some big pants will make everything better so that's my mission today ��

 

[Coletteypie]

Oh Emma - that might be good that they have finally worked out the source of your headaches!! Has your blood pressure been raised through the whole pregnancy so far?? Fingers crossed for you.

Hahaha yes big pants party ! Sounds awesome girls! Tho I can't work out how some of you still fit in your pre-pregnancy pants!! Mines were too tight at the top and cutting into the bump - had to ditch them about 24 weeks! Went big pants at that stage and haven't looked back since hehe

 

[emmababy1]

It's steadily crept up over the last 6 weeks but was ridiculously high for a while yesterday. It keeps fluctuating which is why they're going to monitor it but looks like I'll end up on medication for it. I dont mind, it'll go back to normal once baby's here.

I think we should all post a picture in our big pants when we've got them! I never even thought abut buying them really. My normal pants sit under my bump so haven't had a problem Yet x

 

[xxcharliexx]

I've been in my big pants a while haha! OH is not a fan haha! Comfort before sexiness I'm afraid!! It's my arse that's growing the most!! I have my big pants under my bump x

 

[Heres Hoping]

Big pants party....whoop whoop lol

Hope your headaches and blood pressure improves Emma, least you now know whats causing it all which must be some relief. Dont let it put u off having more babies, all the pain and aches will be worth it when your lo comes.

I feel absolutely knackered. Lying on sofa here, no toddler so have opportunity to sleep but I cant......arghhhhhhh!! Why cant I sleep when I feel so tired x

 

[Rachyroo]

Collettypie my fave normal pants are cotton briefs with a lace band at the top, so maybe thats why they still fit, the lace is really stretchy and soft so not cutting in! Think big pants are a must for post baby though, an investment clearly needs to be made!

 

[buggy1]

I wear big pants anyway so maybe that's why mine still fit

DD has caught the plague from me, she was really ill last night, temp got up to 39.7, we nearly took her to hospital but it was late and sitting with her in A&E would have been rough for us all, fortunately it started to come back down and she's much better tonight. I'm tired though.

My pelvis has been hurting the most it has ever hurt the last two days, and my bump is achey too. Finding it really hard to walk now

On a brighter not the mw has just been round, she thinks baby is now head down
Heartbeat sounds good too and blood results all good.

 

[Lucyboo]

Haha.. Loving the big pants convo... Bubba behaving themselves again today and seems back to normal so will keep a close eye on it.

Good news about your baby buggy..hope your little girl is ok.

 

[Belfa]

Hello all! I've been lurking around tri 3 for a few days but thought I'd ought to go official!! I can't actually believe we're here in the final trimester! How ridiculously quick has that gone!?!

Nearly keep my boobs warm too they're that high, but the extra support I get from them makes the slightly hideous appearance all worthwhile

I had a look at these and I think, because they are high at the thigh, I'll have a fat bulge at the leg area however, these ones look good : http://www.mothercare.com//on/demandware.store/Sites-MCENGB-Site/default/Product-Show?pid=LC1549

Buggy that's a shame, poor soul, not easy when you've had a tough pregnancy either and are up all night.

Emma I really hope that once your BP is under control your headaches will be too.

Glad to hear baby is behaving again today Lucy!

Has anyone not ordered their nursery furniture yet? x

 

[Pismo]

Oh dear, pregnancy is definitely not glamorous. I don't know how the celebs continue to look fab big pants and all!

Had my 28week midwife appointment today... Wasn't my usual MW and she was fab, heard baby's heart beat, measured my bump (27weeks apparently but nothing said - three weeks ago normal MW said I was measuring slightly ahead), got weighed (only 2kg gained thus far) and had bloods/pee checked.

I'm still recovering from my cold so there was a little protein and ketones in urine but nothing to be worried about - It was quite obvious that I was dehydrated

Still in normal pants here - although I wore quite comfy ones anyway. Cant be bothered with nice pants riding up my butt all day when I'm at work

[Bethyboo87]

Belfa I haven't ordered any furniture yet. I've got the crib and that's it. We'll be moving house in the next few months, although god knows when, and it's just more stuff for us to move. Even if we were settled we won't be doing the nursery until baby is ready to move to their own room. Gives me a place to put my parents when they come to visit and means I make make it girlie or boyish depending on what I have xx
