***** May 2015 Mummies to be *****

[caseysmummy11]

Mines at 9 jessie. My letter said 12 hours but I think it does vary depending on hospital/area. Im currently on water it says on my letter im allowed water so sipping it. I've put my kindle in charge and packed my crochet hooks and wool ready. I just want it over and done with now. Not struggling as much as I thought I would without food but I still have from when I get up til after the test to go so think that will be the hardest part. The piles only lasted just over a week or so and touch wood I haven't had them since so hoping it stays that way now. It's always the way hun once your down with something everything else seems to pile on top to make you feel worse xxx

 

[blueeyes34]

Jessiecat and caseysmummy hope your tests go ok in the morning.

Jessiecat I had piles early in the pregnancy, never suffered before (the joys of pregnancy hey) I used anusol cream and ate prunes when I couldn't go, touch wood the cream worked and I've been ok since.

Sorry to moan again, but so sick of this chest infection,wish it would go now xx

Morning ladies

I think I might be developing spd? I keep getting a sharp pain through my pubic bone area when ever I change position, get in or out of the car, roll over in bed etc. I didn't have it last pregnancy, so wasn't sure what was causing it. I actually yelled in pain turning over last night

Busy day for me here too, I have my anti D at the hospital, we're taking Blake to stay at Grandmas and heading to Coventry with the cat. We're staying in a hotel tonight and showing the cat tomorrow, wish us luck!

Hope you poorly ladies are feeling better soon, I can really sympathise as it was me all through the second trimester xxx

 

[Elliott]

Morning, sounds like lots going on for people today so hoping all goes well for everyone and we can all enjoy a nice weekend

Just standard mw app for me so hopefully all straight forward. X

 

[Mayflower85]

Hope all goes well with your GTT Caseysmummy and Jessie! I had to fast for 12 hours beforehand, and my appointment was at 9.10am. I did brush my teeth in the morning though, didn't cross my mind not to!

I have a growthscan and consultant appt this morning, looking forward to seeing baby again!

Morning all. Not been around much. Got so much stuff to sort in preparation for moving! Hopefully we can sign the tenancy next week & start moving everything. Gonna do it in stages n unpack as we go.

Managed to bag myself a double sofa bed from a local selling page for £25 delivered. Now I'm looking forward to night feeds will be comfy & lying down so no problem if I fall asleep baby will be safe too

Will try and catch up & get on as often as poss but loads going on as u can imagine xx

 

[caseysmummy11]

Morning ladies, thanks for the well wishes. I have just over an hour til my appointment. Will update when I get home.
Glad everything's going well with the move larly and what a bargin!
Im just going tp brush my teeth as it didn't say not too I think, it only crossed my mind when I brushed mine last night and couldn't remember from last time lol.
Good luck with your scan and appointment mayflower!
It does sound like spd Durham that's when I get most of my pain on my groin and I also have trouble lifting my right leg to put anything on not sure if that's spd related or not. Im going to mention it at my next consultant appointment as most days at home I now have to walk against the walls to stop myself bearing weight on my left leg/hip. Think I might possibly get a bump support soon to see if that helps. Xxx

 

[Flosi]

Morning girls! Hope everyone's day goes ok and tests go well. I will officially be joining you on Sunday!

 

[Orion]

It'll be nice to have everyone back together again when all the tri 2 peeps come over

 

[buttonbear]

Nearly fainitng in the school playground was not my finest moment!! Urg I feel awful, feel like I cannot get enough air in my body even while lying down makes me all panicky!! Stupid cold is still here which probably isn't helping things

Good luck to all those getting tests and appts etc today and to all feeling crappy xx

 

[Durhamchance]

Oh no Button, hope you're ok x

 

[TashaWink]

Hope everyone is enjoying their day so far! It's beautiful and sunny here so we're going to head out to the park soon.

Technically not over here until Sunday but I keep popping in.

Hope everyone's appointments go well. When I had my Test 3 years ago all I needed to go in for was the blood test after the lucozade. Hope you're not bored waiting about!

 

[Elliott]

All good with mw this morning. Blood pressure back to normal and measuring exactly as they'd expect which was nice to hear after all the recent comments ive had. She had a listen and a feel and baby was head down and she let me feel where the bum was hehe I could feel something where she said but I'd never be able to identify it again! So just waiting on blood results for iron levels which I should hear about next week.

Hope everyone else is getting in well xx

 

[Jessiecat]

Woohoo i'm home after a long morning.
Tests went fine, just waiting to hear now, should know by 3pm apparently. I was sat in the waiting room with about 4 others getting the same test and I was a little jealous because I know they'd all be around the same gestation, yet when they were shouted they hopped up and walked off with a spring in their step whereas in took me 10 minutes to lift up on my chair and hobble over on my crutches lol.

Sounds like a busy day for May mummies with so many appointments going on, hope everyone's getting good news x

 

[caseysmummy11]

Im back there was only me and another lady it wasn't too bad bit I felt well past food but forced some lunch down and I feel a lot better now for it. Just feel a bit tired now! May have an afternoon nap on the sofa. Glad you got on well jessie, don't worry I hobbled to the room too hun so your not the only one chick xxx

 

[blueeyes34]

Hope the tests went well Caseysmummy and Jessiecat.

How was your appointment Mayflower, all good I hope.

Hope you're ok buttonbear, sounds like a few of us are suffering with colds, viruses, chest infections

Glad to hear all went well at your appointment Elliott.

I'm still feeling awful with this chest infection, every so often my heart feels like its racing so fast and beating really hard in my chest. It really worries me, should I make another doctors appointment? I saw the gp Tuesday, I know they can't give me anything, but maybe somehow check my heart??

Hope everyone's ok xx

 

[Nm1979]

Hope every one is well
Had my whopping cough jab today
Waitting to see if I get a dead arm
Going to get my car seat and base on Sunday what's every one gone for

 

[Orion]

The day of my whooping cough jab my arm felt great. It was the next day I had a sore red lump. Still waiting for it to go.

Had a busy day - repairing a cupboard, shopping, walking the dog, cleaned the house and my neice is coming over to play this afternoon.

 

[buttonbear]

Well I managed a bit of a nap, dont actually feel any better really and woke to the most painful cramp in my calf! Never felt anything like it still hobbling on it now!!

 

[Jessiecat]

Blueeyes if you're worried book back in with doctor, better that you keep going then don't go when you should have. Really hope you start to feel better soon.

I had a sleep too button, though they never end up being as good as you imagine d they lol.

Good news!! I don't have GD! Bring on the sugar!
Come on caseysemummy, follow with the same news xx
