***June/July mummies to be!***

[Bythesea]

Yuck, feeling exhausted and nauseous today. It came on all of a sudden this morning and I can't shake it. Have literally zero energy...started googling symptoms and have diagnosed myself with all sorts!! Will see how I feel tomorrow, hopefully it's just a 30 week wall moment..........

 

[Lolie14]

Oh no, I hope it passes for you soon! Step away from Dr Google!

 

[Leighwiltshire]

i need to stop referring myself to dr google too!!

i am absolutely shattered! i cannot seem to get enough sleep even when all ive done over the past 4 days is snooze all day! also his movements are becoming very painful!

last night he wouldnt stop moving it made me feel so sick! was begging him to go to sleep i tried all different positions then this morning when i woke up he wasnt moving and i was begging him to move haha!

im never happy wish i could see into my tummy - nearly 6 weeks left im shitting myself

 

[Lolie14]

I hear you on the tiredness, my daughter is currently having nightmares so wakes up a couple of times in the night really screaming.

I'm loving all the movements, except when I get a boney butt under my ribs and a head pushing right down on my bladder!

I have a growth scan tomorrow so fx baby's growth has settled down!

 

[Leighwiltshire]

oh fingers crossed for you - i have a quiet week this week no appointments!!! this is unheard of!!

i get the foot stuck under my rib when im sat at work all day most painful thing ever.

currently experiencing the forward rolls which he seems to love doing at the minute!! little monkey it kills!

luckily there is only me and a very needy pug who sleeps in the middle of me and my partner like a baby lol.

 

[Lolie14]

Scan went well, baby's growth is under control and they are happy with my blood sugar levels, yay!

How are you feeling now Bythesea?

How are little ones forward rolls Leigh?

 

[Bythesea]

Glad scan went well, lovely news. X
this last bit is tough. Still feeling tired but also quite low. That may be contributing to the feeling crappy... hopefully it'll pass.
Getting heartburn lots, and I'm also experiencing lots of rolling around and pretty much constant wriggling.
Been slowly ordering bits in and will start to get the baby's room ready over the next few weeks....not that it'll be in there for a while I'm sure.... Although I do kick mine out early because they keep me awake with their snuffles and shuffles. Looking forward to lots more flip flop weather as bending to put on shoes is becoming an issue now!

 

[Leighwiltshire]

thats great news lolie!

i have my scan next wednesday see if they want to induce me early or not!

he went really quiet last night and so far today ive had a few but quiet, im not concerned yet as my placenta is at the front so i know i barely him move someday especially if he is facing towards my spine.

im getting hit with tri 3 nausea! 24/7 i cant seem to shake it off! ive suffered with heartburn from tri 1 it has killed me, he has so much hair it shows on the scans when they scan him lol

i think im pretty much sorted for baby, we are looking to move first week of may so everything is still in bags and boxes until we get moved so he has to stay put for a wee bit longer please baby!

i have a tiny bump compared to most but i am so done with being so uncomfortable

the end is deffo the hardest! xx

 

[Lolie14]

I too have an anterior placenta. Till now baby has been head down and I have had lots of kicks and rolls but yesterday at my scan they told me baby is now breech so like yourself I am having gentle nudges rather than kicks.

We still have everything in the loft from having our daughter so I just need to wash a few baby clothes and pack my bag really. I packed too much last time so just going to take the bare minimum this time around.

 

[Leighwiltshire]

im packing my bag this weekend just incase and going to put it in the car ready.

ive felt him lots recently then last night and today quiet, i can still feel him but its ever so slight and not as painful as it was lol - but again this makes you worry,

do you know what you are having?

 

[Lolie14]

No, we didn't find out with our daughter so going for a surprise again although I think it's a boy.

I had our daughter at 37 weeks so want to ensure my bag is all packed by 35 weeks, just incase!

 

[Leighwiltshire]

eee i knew before i had even had a scan i was carrying a boy - just mummas instinct i think never had any babies before.

yes they keep threatening to induce me so its best im prepared for what ever maybe xx

 

[Lolie14]

I had a strong feeling I was carrying a girl first time around and feel the same that this is a boy!

When are they wanting to induce you?

 

[Leighwiltshire]

they havent given me a set date as such, i could go to my scan on wednesday and end up being induced. i have a dodgy placenta so they are closely monitoring it and if they arnt happy with his growth or the blood flow they will set me off xx

 

[Bythesea]

Leigh when did you find out there was an issue? was it at a growth scan? Xx

 

[Leighwiltshire]

i was measuring small at my 28 week appointment i was below the the 5th line so was referred for a growth scan immediately.

and then the calsifications were picked up at the growth scan and the low blood flow though the cord was also so i was weekly monitored until my last growth scan in which he had put on a lb in the 2 weeks, i just have to be aware of his movements which is difficult with a placenta on the front!

the baby does play with the cord tho, which can be why the blood flow wasnt great, when i had my 4d scan he had the cord in his mouth sucking on it which obv would alter the blood flow xxx

 

[Lolie14]

So your boy could be here anytime? Exciting but scary I imagine!

 

[Leighwiltshire]

any time they feel he is no longer safe in there or its not beneficial to him they will whip him out!

terrified im so not ready for him to come yet! i need to wash all his stuff and everything is still in boxes as we are due to move the first week of may! all being well and contracts are sorted

 

[Bythesea]

Oh goodness.... well fingers crossed you get organised before he gets evicted! X

 

[Bythesea]

Bump size back on track, head engaged for now, least it's the right way round! And midwife making a referral to the consultant regarding my anxiety, so a good midwife appointment today.
How's everyone getting on? I think I've almost got everything I need for baby now-just need to buy all the lovely things for myself like heavy duty sanitary pads and breast pads.... lovely...
