I have no idea what why my baby is lying. Sometimes i can tell on the doppler where i pick up the heartbeat (above belly button - baby must be breech, just above pelvis baby must be head down). I cant determine if im getting punched or kicked either haha! xx

 

[Shelly1812]

PS I just noticed my ticker 90 days to go, i cant believe how quickly the past 9 days has went .... it seems like it was only couple of days ago i posted saying double digits and somehow 9 days have passed.... lets hope the next 90 do the same x

 

[KHTW]

90 days! Oh dear! And that is if you make it to week 40! Actually we could all give birth anytime after week 37, right?! Now, that is a scary thought! x

My MIL keeps saying that she doesn't think I will make it to my due date Not sure where she gets her info from...

 

[MrsS143]

I'm pretty convinced I'll be having a November baby knowing my luck lol

 

[petchy]

One week till tri 3!

I THINK I've figured out how she is positioned. I think she is facing forward with her head up in my right ribs, and her feet kicking my bladder like mad. It's the only way that makes sense with the movement pattern. The thing pressing up into my ribs COULD be her bum, but that doesn't add up with the strong kicks to my bladder in combination with what I reckon are punches to the front/sides.

 

[KHTW]

It really is a guessing game, isn't it? :lol

My stomach sometimes looks square!!!!! I guess it's maybe when the little bug is stretching

Ladies, MOTHERCARE has a huge SALE on atm. I got two pairs of adorable dungarees yesterday x

 

[CarrieMarshall]

Hi everyone, got a week off work this week and using the opportunity to rest up a little. Baby has been moving lots and is so great, can't say I'm able to figure out how is lying, but it did an almighty somersault the other day that was so strong I suddenly felt queasy and needed a wee! Strange, normally that sort of feeling shouldn't make you happy!

I feel like I've ballooned myself behind the bump recently. I know I haven't been eating great, but I'm still keeping active etc so can't believe is all fat surely? ! Will you retain fluid absolutely anywhere on your body? ?

 

[mumagain@37]

Morning, retaining fluid!! yes it will hide anywhere!! it is hot so your body will soak up and store any water you give it, the best thing to do is stick to it, drink more water, it eventually flushes the system and even if you are keeping hold of it, it is a very good thing to keep hold of

Hope that little ramble makes sense! enjoy your week off xx

 

[KHTW]

Re. fluid retention - yes - water can be retained anywhere in your body. A friend of mine ballooned up all over when pregnant; I mean - face, legs, arms, stomach, breasts! She hated it! But she lost is right away after the birth x

I have my nursery still decorated from daughter number one. It's very plain, and will jazz up with some new wall art and stickers. We moved her into another room which has been made into a princess room.

I'm really struggling with tiredness this past week. I just cannot seem to shake the tiredness off. We are off on a week holiday soon so that will be a good break. I may look at reducing work hours in the run up to my maternity leave.
When is every one finishing up?

 

[Georgesmum]

I finish on 25th September, but that includes 2 weeks of holidays before maternity kicks in. Can't bloody wait!

 

[mumagain@37]

I finish on the 9th October, although I have lots of holidays in between now and then aswell as I have to take it all before October!

 

[KHTW]

My last day at work is 18th September, can't wait!!!! I'm also taking holidays before mat leave starts, hence no time off for me before the 18th!

 

[petchy]

I finish on the 24th, possibly 25th if I still have loose ends to tie up...

 

[ChloeSmith]

Same as me Petchy xx

 

[Sharmon]

I'm also been feeling super tired this week. I'm hoping to finish up around 11th Sept (2weeks hol & maternity officially starting on 25th), though last time out I was induced early due to PE, so this may not go to plan! But I'm hoping I will have 3 weeks off before new baby arrives.

 

[Georgesmum]

woop. V day is here! X

 

[mumagain@37]

YAY Congratulations!! xx

 

[petchy]

Happy v-day!

 

[first_time_mum]

V-day at last now just another 3 weeks until tri 3 haha xx
