X-x-X-x- August 2015 mummies -x-X-x-X

[kumber]

I'm getting just as many thumps bubbles, but it's less painful cus it's not thundering up my rib cage any more. Now he just tries to shatter my pelvis instead! Baby's activity shouldn't decrease hun so if you're worried keep an eye, even if you've already been in 50 times this week!

Today has been so manic, sorry for not updating Lulu's thread since this morning. We have a fly infestation in the kitchen thanks to someone trying to be 'helpful' with our rubbish a few months ago. It's taken forever to sort it out and with the weather getting warmer it's rapidly getting worse. I think if this last clear out doesn't work we'll have to get in a specialist. So annoyed cus we thought we had got them all but a couple must've been missed and now there's frigging loads in the space of about 3 days. I appreciate my friend was trying to be helpful but I do wish she could have asked first, rather than going behind my back while I was away overnight. It's caused absolute bloody havoc

Please say everyone's had a beter weekend than mine, barring pregnancy symptoms???

 

[kumber]

Ohh Michelle, what colour is the blood? I think you can get a bit of blood when your cervix dilates and your plug comes out but I would ring and check!

 

[Sugar10]

Oh it's so busy in August mummies now! Can't believe it! I'm not feeling any better, still getting bad cramps radiating from my lower back and feel very sore inside, I don't know if you can feel any dilation or not. Every pregnancy is different and I had a lot of niggles in the couple weeks run up to labour. But don't recall things happening at 35weeks. I'm also very irritable !! Everything has annoyed me today! Oh no MI600 I would get checked out with those contractions , hope you're ok? Michelle I would ring and mention the bleeding, could be anything this close to labour. Best to be safe. Oh no kumber !! Hope you get it sorted , I hate flies!! :/ horrid creatures!
I've been looking up back labour, because with my others ive always rang the hospital with a definite pattern of front tummy pains, but never had how I'm feeling before so thinking I could be having possible back labour pains. They're so crampy and I feel like I constantly need a poo (cringe), and I when I go the toilet I feel like his head is there and I could push hun out! Eeeek! I hope i haven't got 5 weeks of this.. We're all niggling away aren't we! Wonder who's next ?? It's exciting. 12 days left in July! don't think I'll be a July mummy but don't think I'll make due date x x

 

[Bubbles22]

Michelle I would ring just to check. You have lost a lot of your plug and it's likely to be that but they might want to check considering your symptoms over the weekend x

 

[Balthazar1275]

Thanks ladies, will phone the midwife shortly. It's streaks of dark red blood which I know is old blood. God this is worse than the TWW, knicker watching, symptom spotting and constantly checking your self when your going to the toilet it's insane

[Bunny432]

Hope your ok Michelle x x x x

 

[Balthazar1275]

I am fine thanks ladies, no more streaky blood so just going to keep an eye on things, still getting pains still the same as yesterday. They aren't getting any stronger or becoming more frequent which is good. It's going to be a long 4 weeks until our section if this keeps happening!!!

[Jess07]

Haven't been able to get signal all day!!! Gosh so much is happening!

All these August babies keeping us on our toes, looking forward to everyone's little bundles arriving! Some soon it seems!?? I'll be stalking all the time.

Really hope everyone's ok , xxx

 

[Sugar10]

Glad no more bleeding michelle . Keep an eye on things, we're all fast approaching full term and skme already there! I honestly don't know where these last weeks have gone! Hoping the next few are the same! X x

 

[JJ Mum]

So sorry Michelle and sugar and now ive seen since dolly all having trips to hosps last night- glad you all and babies are ok
Think I didn't go far enougth back on pages when I caught up last night!

Colleen, trying jogging, whilst eating pineapple and spicy curry followed bu a steamy sex sesion, bouncing on a ball, scrubbing kitchen floor and nipple tweeking really hope your next but these august babies seem chomping at the bit today!!

Ml600 hoped your contractions had stopped for you,

Make sure your bags are packed ladies and phones charged at all times xx

 

[ShowingPromise]

I'm still getting a few thumps but it's more lots of pressing against my tum and squirmy feelings. He still has quiet days which is worrying but I'm used to his patterns a bit more now so know it's just him.
Absolutely no symptoms and I'm sure he is still transverse so I think he will stay put until his due date and beyond!
Hope you are all doing ok xx

 

[JJ Mum]

Showing promise, didn't lots of june or july babies that were transverse get booked in for sections because of that? Have they dicussed this with you?

 

[H16]

Bubbles my movements are a mixture of violent kicks and lots of wriggles. My whole belly shakes when baby moves.

Ladies I have just been to the loo and when I wiped I am getting streaks of blood is this normal?

Michelle X

Hope you are ok hun. Bit different as I haven't lost my plug but when I had bleeding the other week and phoned hospital they said they will always ask you to go in for bleeding and get checked just to be safe. Let us know how you get on xx

 

[ShowingPromise]

Hi JJ yes I have mw appt on tues, if he isn't head down at least then they will offer to scan him to confirm and then either try and move him (I'm not sure I want them to do that though) or they will schedule a section unless he gets him self into position.
Have any mums had their baby turned manually? I've heard it's painful and carries risks such as the placenta coming away and distressing baby.. But id also like to avoid a section if I can!

 

[Tmum]

Evening ladies!
Michelle glad there's been no more blood! This is def worse than TWW lol!!
Sugar, hope you're ok. Sounds very uncomfortable!
Oh Kumber really hope you get sorted! We had flies a wee while ago due to something in our chimney! We were demented with them and I was ready for a breakdown!
More gutting out done here today but then from around 1 I have been in agony! My poor bump has ban constantly sore! Unfortunately baby's kicks aren't any less violent, if anything this baby's kicks are more painful! My whole bump moves madly when baby does lol!!

 

[ml600]

Ohhh ladies... I've been getting those horrendous pains on and off all night!! I'm so tired �� can't wait to see the midwife today! X

 

[JJ Mum]

Oh ml600 that sounds really uncomfy , really good you have a midwifes appointment booked tho so you can talk througth them with her as see what she says.

Im in team no sleep tonight too, my youngest just wont stay in his toddler bed tonight, he's been drinking like a fish in this heat, i feel armchair shaped - camping out in boys room - suppose I need to get used to it for when baby Griffin arrives, but slept in a bed once this week.

I desperately want my fetal anemia scan on wednesday but thats a specialist in baby not me and pregnancy chk etc and So I might book an appointment with midwife this week if I can get one as ive not seem anyone since 28 weeks and not goingvto till 37 weeks. I feel a bit in limbo between consultant and midwives tbh. I don't know babies position, ive only been measured once, seen a midwife twice and consultant twice, just feel a bit going alone if you know what I mean, and it makes me worry.

 

[Browneyed Girl]

Hi ladies, thought I would update that I'm a July mummy! I was induced on the 18th and my baby boy arrived by forceps at 1.10 this morning (20th July). He's a little beauty xx

 

[dolly26]
