October mummy's-are you ready?!

[Esoames]

It's quite unreal that we're having babies next month!! I can't wait I'm ready room is done, bags are packed , and I can't wait to be able to bend over again!

I think I might be early too as she is head down and has been for ages and my job is pretty stressful. I'm not on maternity leave until the 25th of oct but I am working from home from the 20th of Sept. That'll stop me buying things!!

Ooo whats the bet that now school is starting back up today i get asked EVERY day now..'How long you got left', 'getting big now', 'how you feeling' etc...lol

 

[isobel84]

i almost got everything for hospital bag, still need some sort of nightdress and a few small bits. I have got my EPO and RLT and my ball ready, and today i have put the first load of babyclothes in the mashine!
its getting more and more real now, i think next week the cot will come up and as soon as i stop work i will do a big clean and sort the temperary changing unit (my mum bought me one but we are not setting it up until we move house)

im just sooo sooo tired al the time

 

[MrsR]

I've gone from being constantly tired to having reams of energy! Woke up at 4 am this morning and decided to clean kitchen and make some more to do lists! Lol!

Yes mine is always hiccuping, i nearly started patting her on her back but not sure how it would help!

 

[MrsR]

He gets then like twice a day for ages and I have to admit I hate it! I hate the feeling and I feel so sorry for him even though he doesn't know it's frustrating! Lol x

 

[tinkerbell86]

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! i can't believe it's next month!!

I am totally excited and yet still think i am somewhat in denial that i have to go through birth to get little one here!!!!

I want to know what it is and what it looks like as am bored of neutral clothes!!!

I have now moved and am starting the task of unpacking and getting babies room sorted!!!!

This morning woke up with a sharp pains in my left side of my bump is this sound like braxton hicks?

Also wondering if anyone has had baby's head not engaging at 34 weeks as found out baby has not moved into position yet......

 

[MrsR]

My midwife told me she won't check position and engagement until 36/37 weeks as babies can still move and change position at 34 weeks and hearing that baby is breech at 34 weeks can be upsetting for some people x

 

[isobel84]

my midwife only checked cuz i asked her on my 31 weeks app. then he layed in right poss, but she said he might move around a few times still XX

I think we should soon do a thread with all octobermums and our duedates but also when we think our bubs will accually come

And how much we think they will weigh x good idea x

 

[Naaat]

Omg this is crazyyy. Had my driving test today, thought it'd be nice to pass before baby comes. Unfortunately I failed. And am extremely annoyed about it!! Ahah but now I've had to book another test and the earliest test available is 5 days before my due date!!! Ahh! Hahaha that'll be... interesting. Will have to keep checking for cancellations. Don't want to go into labour during the test rofl!

 

[isobel84]

ohh hun! sorry you failed! but if you do something wrong on next test just pretend you got a contraction! I almost drow down in a ditch on my test but he past me anyway!

Fab idea hun!!

Lol I am soooo POed haha. The instructor was bloody awful aswell. Didn't like him. He made me do an emergency stop, knowing fully well that I'm pregnant. -_-
A damn bloody ice cream van came round a very narrow corner doing about 60 on a 30mph road when I was in the middle of pulling out of a junction... grrrrrr. And doing a three point turn a car came out of nowhere... ahjhdsjkd oh well will have to try again lol. But omgggg this pregnancy is making it hard for me to actually have the will power to keep trying lol. I'm just so tried and can't be bothered ahaha. But I will not give up as I've already spent sooo much money learning haha. It's a bloody money making scheme!!

 

[MrsR]

Aw sorry you failed honey x my sister passed second time round whilst heavily pg and she still maintains he only passed her because she was sooooo expectant! Lol x

 

[Naaat]

Lol I wish the tester had been that kind today. He could've been all "Oh you're pregnant so I'll pass you." haha, but nooo. He had to be a knob didn't he? XD I really hope I pass next time. It'd be well handy to get around with the baby.

 

[MrsR]

I can't drive and I don't notice how 'hard' it is as I have never been able to drive/have never owned a car so I don't miss it iyswim x I'm sure it would be easier but I got through it with DD easily enough so I'm not fazed x plus don't tell anyone but the mere thought of learning to drive absolutely terrifies me! I'm less scared/nervous/terrified about my back operation I need!!!! Lol x

 

[Annie050408]

My DH has his test 4 days before my due date as that was the earliest he could get. I think he'll do fine but even if he fails he'll still drive me in to the hospital with L plates

 

[Yodabo]

Just had a huge wake up call...looked at my ticker and have 48 DAYS LEFT

HOLY CRAP! Need to get everything finished me thinks!
