September 2017 Mummas Thread!

Is anyone else really struggling with tiredness atm? Or sore hips? I feel like my hips are always heavy and sore, and I don't ever feel well rested in the morning.

100 days left for me and starting to feel like a beached whale. Is it nearly September yet??

Lovely bump!

I'm finding the tiredness is coming back, although it could be a combination of the heat and not being at work currently. My back, pelvis, hips and upper back/shoulders all hurt to be honest. I struggle to sleep some nights because I can't get comfortable, and I hate sitting on the sofa because it's just not supportive enough!

I could go on and on really but each time I feel him kick makes up for it.
95 days to go for me!

Yes and yes! Every morning I wake up in agony with my hips and toss and turn every night. Take care x

This is such a huge milestone for you, PB!
I'm so happy for you xx

Yes! I'm having more naps than the first tri now. I'm also having tension headaches on and off. Every now and then my calves swell but my nurse wasn't worried. Oh and I noticed some blood vessels in my, they are only faint so I think really I can only tell but wish they'd go away x

 

[misskth]

Morning all, how are we doing?! I'm 24 weeks today and love reaching each new weekly milestone. I have my whooping cough injection this morning too!

 

[Elfs Mummy]

Last week of tri 2 ! I'm 26 weeks today it's going crazy fast ! X

 

[kumber]

Glad it's not just me feeling the tiredness, the weather certainly isn't helping either I think. Warm weather seems to zap any small about of energy left!

PB, yay for tri 3! Really chuffed for you, the end is in sight and you'll meet your baby soon!

Pemsy, that's rubbish with your headaches. Have you found anything that helps?

Misskth, congratulations on reaching V day!!


Does anyone mind if I make a tri 3 thread, as some of us are reaching that point now?

 

[misskth]

Of course but please pop back for those of us not there yet! Xx

I seem to get really tired around 4pm. Slept until 10 this morn. I havent really been tried until the last few weeks. Im dreading getting to 35+ lmao specially with the heat. I dont know how were gonna cope giving birth in the summer aha.

Is anyone else thinking water birth? I want one but idk if my hospital does it. I think itll be amazing with the heat.

Go for it Kumber xx

 

[kumber]

Of course! I do like a good tri straddle

Hugely recommend a water birth if you can get one, they're amazing for the contraction pains. Great idea getting as much sleep in as you can now!

Thread is up for anyone who wants to toddle over.

PB I took the liberty of filling in your team pink as it was the first one I remembered!

The bf and his brother are currently setting up the furniture for the kiddo's room. So far, no injuries no swearing no arguments and they're 1/3 done. I'm impressed lol

 

[firstfreakout]

Does anyone else find their stomach is hurting when they go to sit down? Like an uncomfortable squeezing kind of feeling?


Also I appear to have caught a cold or a bug

 

[PeanutButter]

Depends how i sit tbh if i sit at the end of the sofa hunched over it feels tight, and baby doesn't like it she starts kicking. Sitting back normal if fine though.

Sure it isnt pregnancy related? I woke up this morn unable to breathe from my nose and sore throat lol x

Yeah I find that when I sit forward baby gets cross and starts poking me until I move! I meant going to sit down as I bend my tummy feels bruised. Maybe it's all the stretching. I am getting huuuuge.

I've had a stuffy nose and heavy breathing for a few months now, and even a nose bleed for the first time in about 10 years! But this feels cold-like; headaches, sore throat, sore/blocked nose, achey shoulders. And I'm not sleeping at night because I can't get comfortable between my bump and my sore back! Even though I have a pregnancy pillow, it doesn't seem to be helping. Oh dear, what a mess I am today!

 

[PeanutButter]

Round ligament? I get pain when i bend very low like under my bump, occasionally round the sides to. If i bend over loads it really hurts like to tie laces etc.
Hopefully it isnt a bug and just your body being tired!!
I have nothing to suggest for sleeping, i toss and turn all night to My best position is putting the preg pillow under half of me, then laying on my back but im not flat like / position. x

 

[kumber]

Could be ligament pain, with all the stretching maybe? Sounds very uncomfortable

 

[firstfreakout]

I'm guessing it is round ligament pain as i also get shooting pains when I walk for too long under my bump/pelvis.
Such a moaner xD
