I've seen episodes, but we aren't watching it. My dw is watching The Beginning of Life on Netflix. I've watch a bot of it with her. It's really interesting and informative, but more focused on early development. As I did my postgrad in Educational Neuroscience, so far it's been more of a refresher than learning anything new for me, but it is cute to watch.

I'm really struggling tonight. She's in a really uncomfortable position and it's making everything difficult. I've felt like I've been in and permanent contraction today I've felt so tigh. But it's worth it. Even if I do look like and house lol

 

[snowbee]

Ery that is one impressive bump. Mine has also been in an uncomfortable position on and off all day. I'm also really hungry at the moment.

 

[missyeovil]

I've been so uncomfortable today too! It's like baby us trying to stretch me sideways and some if the movements are taking my breath away! My ribs feel incredibly sore today too. Hoping it eases up tomorrow. I really don't remember it being this bad with the other two - the occasional painful kick but not all day!! Xx

 

[Dovekie]

Just a small house Ery. Maybe a bungalow x

I've just been playing "poke my belly" with the baby

 

[lisey]

I am the size of a house with a two storey extension on the side...massive!!

 

[nikkix86]

Ive been having bad cramps tonight and bad Braxton hicks. Baby seem lower aswell the kicks don't seem to be in my ribs anymore but around my belly button

 

[Eryinera]

Lol lisey! And dovekie!
Miss Yeovil I know what you mean this madam is trying to stretch me in every which way lol. I don't remember this with my son either!
I'm not feeling like she wants to hang around in there for the full time lol.

i am so uncomfortable i feel he has no room in there to move, i felt every movement yesterday he is quieter today.

i have his head stuck under my rib on one side and his bum stuck under my rib on the other with intense bladder kicks. OH was like lay on your side get him to move, but it just put more pressure on my ribs, feels like he is going to pop them out! i just want to lay flat all the time and let him wiggle.

i have my second growth scan today i feel he is bigger but im not sure by how much will see what they say, decide if they want to induce me or maybe book me in for a section at 37 weeks.

found out yesterday i have 4-6 weeks to wait for the house, meaning ill either have 3 weeks till due date or 1 im stressing xx

 

[nikkix86]

Hope your little man has grown leigh and the scan goes well

 

[snowbee]

Hope your scan goes well Leigh.

I've got the midwife again today, then growth scan in a week. My builders said they would finish today, hahahahaha I can't see that happening. Maybe tomorrow but as long as they finish this week I would be ok with that! My oh really wants to go away before baby arrives and we have been trying for weeks but something always comes up, I think next week is our last chance, either before or after my consultant appointment, sol fingers crossed these builders get finished before then!

 

[nikkix86]

Snowbee were having the same issue we wanted to go away just for a night somewhere but not sure how we are going to squeeze it in! Have a feeling this baby will be early or reckon ive only got till 39 weeks anyway so not long to try and fit it in!

Not sure.if baby is engaging i literally need to wee every 5 minutes and tmi something is pushing down on my bowels aswell lol got sharp shooting pains like serious fanny daggers! Dont see the midwife again till next Tuesday though

 

[Leighwiltshire]

we keep looking to go away also for a night just to relax before he comes but i doubt we will get anywhere - something always pops up.

i get that feeling nikki, but i know its his feet down there and im paranoid of weeing myself as his kicks come out the blue so im getting a bit obsessed with making sure my bladder is empty

thank you girls, hoping he has grown enough but im not convinced

Hope you manage to work out some time to go away and relax for a while
Will be lovely for the both of you x

 

[nikkix86]

Anyone else whos going away where are you going? Lol have no idea where to go and what to do. I can barely walk so cant do much really

 

[Leighwiltshire]

ive just been to the loo and it looks like i have slight blood in my discharge. sorry TMI, im at the hospital at 1.40pm just wondering whether i should call ahead and tell them or just wait till im there

the next hour is going to drag - i also have slight cramping but i have felt him move since.

 

[Emily0505]

What snacks and drinks is everyone going to be putting in their hospital bags?

I'd call them in case hun
Best to be safe than sorry

If you can feel movement from him then there should not be anything to worry about
But it's always best to notify them of things just in case... Remember they know what to expect more so than you do x

 

[Leighwiltshire]

i think i might, the cramps are short bursts but they are intense more than a period pain.

ill give them a call just as a heads up as well.

thank you - its all new to me

 

[missyeovil]

Good luck with scan leigh. Hopefully cramps and blood are nothing to worry about but definitely get yourself checked out properly! X
