Hello ladies here I am in tri3 officially , hope u all have a lovely weekend xx

 

[Irishemma]

Hello ladies!

Hope you are all doing OK.

Well, I survived my weeks training in Birmingham. I am exhausted now though, a week of presentations, role play and being videoed as well as being away from home was hard. However, everyone was very lovely and I can now train people in using family therapy! I am glad that I have been keeping well enough to be able to do it.

Hubby and I went out for a lovely Chinese this evening for our belated valentines. It was great!

Well done Emma, glad it went well. Also glad you had a nice valentines meal, we went out last weekend for ours as hubby is on call this weekend.

Anyway here is a 29w bump pik for you from yesterday x

(DS vs peanut)

welcome across x

 

[frankie247]

I've completely lost track of how many weeks I am, until I look at my ticker, but I must be fairly close to tri 3, so I'm coming over now

 

[Sproglett]

Hey Frankie, welcome across x

 

[jojo3972]

Welcome over everyone , my baby is very very lively the last few days and sometimes feels like he/she is shuddering it's whole body it's so odd lol , and today the movements made my whole torso move quite violently like the baby is running out if room already it's like I remember my others but much later more like 35 weeks ish , I know I'm measuring 2-3 bigger and baby is 50th centile which for me is bigger than my usual babies so could be I'm not used to big movements this early but hell felt like was trying to escape lmao xx

Hi to all the new tri 3'ers! I have my 28week midwife appointment tomorrow. Very much looking forward to finding out how I am measuring so far, also very curious to know what position she is in. I have convinced myself she is transverse or breech because people keep telling me they are feeling uncomfortable due to kicks up by the ribs. I get lots of strong kicks but they are all lower down, I never feel anything higher up. Has anyone had anything similar? I know there is still plenty of time for her to turn, Im just curious! xxx
