[Tmum]

Natalie, Mothercare have a massive sale on atm! I've got so much in it it's been fab!!

ML I agree about the good karma lol!!!

Bubbles sounds amazing!!!!! I haven't been to the Merchant Spa but glad to hear good reviews about it!!

Last day of work tomorrow, can't believe it. Those of you who have finished work, when does it sink in that you're actually off work? xx

 

[JJ Mum]

Xjd, has your hearing returned? Sounds like a rude awakening to wake up with just one ear!!

Michelle- bargain on the video monitor there

Bubbles - your massage day sounded lovely, just what you need post work and pre baby as a treat, hope you enjoy yours ml600 and your dreaded thrush starts to go away by then , yours too Tmum - horrible x

Tmum- good luck for last day at work tomorrow, hope they spoil you rotten. It will take a week to sink in, but you will love it, let the socialising, relaxing and nesting begin x

Kumber- that did sound a scare last night, i wonder if dehydration was an issue, my uterus and braxton hicks reay get frequent and very pattern like if ive not managed to drink enougth on a warm day, they can drive you nuts - really charming of the staff tho to treat you like that! They say best to get checked don't they and then make you feel like a fraud! Xx

Still ticking off jobs to do before baby - huge list, sure im the only one in the house that cares!! Grrr
Completely Forgot id ordered sains shopping online today and just caught the chap by chance on way back from nursery pickup! Ooops

Ive just brought myself a new half year starting diary in fluorescent orange in the hope that ill use it! Im loosing track of appointments, dates and kids activities , orthodontist/school/scout stuff etc with my scatty preg brain!! I need to get organised...

I just cant wait to see little Griffin again on the 22nd at my 34 wk scan , wonder what position he is in? You guys sll seem to know, i have no idea ha

 

[kumber]

Wee came back with a bit of glucose and def not dehydration cus I'm averaging 3 litres of water a day! Roll on Tuesday.



Lolie - fx for baby moving. When ds was head down, I kept getting his bum sticking out under my ribs but movements were still all over my tum.

Natalie - Amazon sometimes have deals on packs of 6 Tommee Tippee bottles, we got 6 for £10 instead of £15 so might be worth a look?

Michelle - which monitor have you chosen? I need to start looking into them!

Bubbles - sooooo jelly of your massage, glad you enjoyed it!

Tmum - yaaaaaay for last day of work, bet you can't wait!

JJ - have you tried those multi-people calenders for the fam? Everyone has their own column to put their appointments and activities, let me see if I can find a link.

 

[Lolie14]

Thanks Kumber! Currently have a lot of pain under both ribs so I have no idea where baby is now!

 

[Balthazar1275]

We got the Motorola mbp36S monitor with an additional camera so we will be able to see both children. Used it last night in my little boys nursery and I love it. Picture quality is amazing I could see and hear him breathing it was fab. Usually we would go through in the morning as soon as he wakes up and starts babbling to himself but now with the monitor I can see that he is ok and happily playing in his cot so we don't have to get up quite as early!!!

Xjd, has your hearing returned? Sounds like a rude awakening to wake up with just one ear!!


No I'm still deaf, it's spreading to my other ear, I feel like I'm under water. Think I may need to see a doctor tomorrow just incase xx

 

[Lulu90]

Not long back from hospital, bile acids are 171 so going in tomorrow to see what the doctors plan is xx

Aww Lulu, really hope the Dr is more helpful tomorrow and you finally get relief. You have suffered far to much during this pregnancy.

I had this last year and it was just bad ear wax, had to have both ears syringed.

 

[Natalie_reid]

6 for 10 that's really good. I'll get a look x

 

[xjdx]

Tbh I have enjoyed ignoring the husband and kids today but I couldn't even understand my neighbour which seems rude. Fingers crossed I manage to get an appointment tomorrow xx

 

[Natalie_reid]

Only seen disposable bottles for 10 on amazon but seen ones for 13.49 for six which is still good xx

 

[JJ Mum]

Kumber- hope they can get to the bottom of it for you , horrible for hosp not to believe you
Thanks for thinking about me and those family calenders - they are fab but ive got too many kids ha ( there will be 8 of us when baby arrives) think that's the problem for my organisation now , fried brain keeping track of everything for everyone!

Lulu- hope today goes ok at hosp re your bile acids, that sounds much higher- maybe they will upp the meds or hopefully induce little Henry x

Xjds- that's def not right, hope you get a standby docs appointment today to chk your ears
My tean son had to have olive oil and cotton wool in his ears for a few days when he stopped hearing as it dissolves any wax buildup but seems odd to come on suddenly and in both!

Enjoy a uneventful sunny day ladies - enjoy last day TMum x

 

[Balthazar1275]

Happy Friday everyone. Hopefully it's a nice relaxed Friday for all us August Mummies.
Just on my way into work, finish at 2pm today so really hoping it's a quick and quiet one.
Is everyone else having labour/delivery dreams? For the last week I keep having a recurring dream that I go into labour at home after my waters break and have my baby girl at 38 weeks. It's weird that I keep dreaming exactly the same thing, premonition maybe???

[Tmum]

Happy Friday everyone!
Last day of work and they've decided to close the college at 1 so I doubt there will be much done today as they're acing a special tea for me at 10! Still can't believe I won't be vack for a year! I didn't have maternity leave when I had Tyler as I had him in June and started uni in the Sept so this is all new!
Couldn't get to sleep last night because hubby wasn't in from work until
Midnight then I took a terrible cramp in my leg at 5 this morning! Could've cried it was horrendous! Hoping for a tear free fun day today lol!!
Lulu hope hospital goes ok!
Jd I LOL'd at being able to ignore the kids and hubby but hopefully you'll get checked out today!
Kumber, how are you feeling now?
Xx

 

[Lulu90]

Up and waiting for 9am so I can call, so eager haha.

I'm on the highest dose of the medication so it can't be increased

I've completely gone off the name Henry, everyone decided to tell me the other day that they hate it xx

 

[Natalie_reid]

If that's the name you like Lulu don't let anyone put you off xx

 

[kumber]

Yaaaaaaaay for last day Tmum, hope they spoil you rotten with your tea! All fine my end, still quite sore but nothing as bad as the night before last.

Lulu, eeeeeep! Let us know how you get on. Ohh no, Henry's a lovely name!

 

[ml600]

Morning everyone!!
Tmum congrats on your last day!! Does it all feel a bit more real now you'll be on maternity? That's when it dawned on me that I'm Actually having a baby!
Lulu good luck! Keep us posted! I really hope they just induce you now... What big difference will a week make?!
Michelle it could well be a premonition! Or maybe wishful thinking
Jj I hope you figure out how to keep track everyone!! I can't imagine having to organise 5 kids with pregnancy brain! I struggle to look after my rabbits lol.

My thrush is starting to ease now. Not as sore as yesterday so that's a relief. I was looking forward to an antenatal class today but it's been postponed which is a bummer! Xx

 

[kumber]

Morning ml, yay for thrush symptoms easing buy booooo for your class!

JJ, could you use 2 of these? It would be a pain using 2 but might be easier than a diary cus it's easily viewable? Although a diary is handy for portability.

Is anyone else feeling the heat today?
