I am finishing on 28th April, this is due to my DS coming at 34w and working over an hour journey from home, my DH would rather I didn't go that far after 35w, although I think this one is going to be late lol x
 
I have stretch marks from before pregnancy. Look like white scars and are just above hip area. Think it must be from gaining and losing weight. I have one pregnancy one, purple that's tiny but next to my belly button. What I do have is lots if bright green veins all the way down my bump! Looks vile to be honest! X
 
I'm leaving 11th April, that's with a weeks annual leave too. Due 3rd may so couple weeks of rest (hopefully) didn't wanna leave too early in case she's late and ill be bored stiff stuck at home xx
 
I know that one Hayley, if this baby comes late I'll regret leaving so early, at least I have my DS to keep me occupied! :-)
 
I'm self employed so my workload has dropped significantly since xmas as it's been so quiet (people not spending money it seems!) but I've applied for my maternity allowance and asked for it to start on may 5th. Not heard back yet so not sure whether it will or if they'll start it on my due date week. Either way because I can be at home it won't be too much of a problem. I just want it to hurry up. I've lost all enthusiasm for my work which isn't good as it was my hobby too but I think it's just because I'm excited to start this big new adventure! X
 
30 weeks today, the final stretch lol!

Having a lot of trouble feeling comfy in bed all of a sudden. Can't lie on my left as I get this strange pre-pins and needles sensation under my left boob and sometimes a really sharp pain right in the centre of my rib cage. Can't lie on my right as I wake up with a numb right leg. Arggh!
 
I'm planning on working until 9th May (39 weeks) but will have to see how it goes. I'm a nurse and already starting to hobble with pelvic pain and getting swollen feet :(

Oh hun, hopefully you'll get your enthusiasm back soon, it might just be "on hold" at the moment. I too have had to apply for maternity allowance, but this is due to working for an agency and not earning enough up to my qualifying week. I just hope they sort it rather quickly for us both.

Yay for 30weeks, sorry you're struggling to be comfy when you sleep :-( I always lie on my left which is useful as I physically can't lie on my right or back as I end up in pain.

I planned to work to 38+5 with my DS, he had other ideas lol. I relate with the swollen feet, mine were like dinner plates with him lol. X
 
When did you send your form off sproglett? I have no idea how long it takes to get any sort of confirmation back from them! Think I did mine just over a week ago. X
 
Time is going so quickly still I think! I have my 32w growth scan today so looking forward to seeing baby :-) everything seems to be coming together nicely just need some nice wall transfers for baby's room and going crazy as can't find any xxx
 
Sproglett how you been this week after visiting triage? Is baby moving plenty? Xx

I hope you are all well ladies and are enjoying the sunshine! I don't think the weather knows what to do today where I am, one minute its lovely the next its pouring!

Well I hit the 31 week mark yesterday, starting to take effect I would say. I don't have a massive bump or a massive body frame but I have gained 2 stone (not sure where lol) and I am beginning to get very uncomfortable..... I am cooking a very active little boy, he never stays still, which I suppose is good and reassuring but its like he is doing full turns, not just kicks here and there.

I am ok sleeping but today he has been under my bellybutton and then under my ribs and the way he moves sometimes actually hurts or is a bit uncomfortable. I went to make a cup of tea earlier and when I stood up my lady bits were throbbing a little, not sure if it was pressure or not - never had anything like that before. My tummy feels very bloated and tight today and I get some stitch like pain. Is this all part of getting further and further along with pregnancy? X

I can only help by saying that this little one is also making me feel bloated and very uncomfortable near the ribs, especially when I change position or eat. I didn't have this a few weeks ago! I feel tight in my chest today which isn't nice at all. For the first time last night I felt so full before my tea that I couldn't eat it all and it wasn't that much to begin with! Just felt sick and huge! I'm still loving breakfast and I do get hungry but after lunch I'm just not fussed. Must be just because baby is growing, there's less room and organs are moving about! 'Just' all that haha x
 
I have that bloated can't bend in the middle feeling, baby kicks the side of my tummy near my ribs and makes me jump sometimes with the big ones. Today feeling like I need a wee but don't go when I try. Argh! Is it wrong to be over being pregnant now? Got the 'over due fed up' feeling already! X
 
I didn't really think about it much but I haven't eaten that much today either, I always love my breakfast and I am really ready for it about 9 but today I didn't have it until 10:30 and haven really picked as much as I would today, baby is making me feel full then it would seem.

I sometimes feel like saying "aw I just want this to be over" but then I feel guilty as I have had a great pregnancy so far and can't complain about anything, I also like when he kicks as it makes me know he is ok in there so I shouldn't be complaining but sometimes I jump out my skin because its so sudden and a bit sore.

9 weeks and it will all be over, our prize at the end is worth it all :) . X
