Exhausted here as well. Was up til 2am and woke up at 6am... I just could not get comfy to save my life, then DH's alarm went off. Rawr. So I went and bought some cocoa butter and ate at KFC to make me feel better lol.

morning ladies

how are you all feeling? i hardly slept last night i keep having really bad dreams so all the kids have gone to school/chilminders and im back in bed with the tv and bnb making the most of it while it lasts!!!

anyone feel they are nesting loads already??? i am awful already... to the point when im waking in the night im thinking about what i need to clean/fix/paint/change etc etc

 

[x-TyMa-x]

I get the nesting urge alot!! .... Its strange cuz it happens most if i have been out of the house for most of the day, when i come home i got on 3hr cleaning missions!!!
Nothing is safe from the duster! lol

With my son at around 36weeks i took all my tins out of the cupboard and cleaned all the tops of them hhahaha..... they wernt even dirty! and i made OH put shelves up in the nursery at 11pm! oops! haha x

Strange isnt it why us pregnant ladies nest!! x

 

[Phantom710]

Funny that you mention dreams sad. Mine haven't been bad, but definately weird.

I noticed yesterday my boobs are leaking? i think? it's kinda a clear-ish fluid? and it's not tons.....

anyways, last night i had a dream that i decided to go ahead and start pumping before LO was here (so i'd have a supply) and it worked! but the weird thing was that i filled up 2-8 ounce bottles in like 5 minutes. hahahahaha

 

[katerdid]

Aw, no prob Michelle! Fun to make Glad you got it sorted, I too, can take forever tweaking my siggy lol.

I nest on and off. Mostly I just pine for setting up a nursery...can't wait til we move so I can get started. I feel like I'll never be ready!
Lol, cleaning the tops of cans? Lord, I hope I don't get that bad! Although if I weren't such a lazy slob I'd prolly have cleaned just about everything else by now

What an odd dream! I have strange ones too. Well, I normally have do anyway, but they have gotten quite odd.
Last night I woke up in the middle of the night in a huge panic because I had turned all funny in the bed and could not figure out where I was supposed to be! I woke up Tim and was yelling "I can't find the window!" cuz that's where the foot of the bed is. I didn't want to fall off or anything.

 

[Phantom710]

heheh wow we're a bunch of odd ones

 

[x-TyMa-x]

haha! We are lol, My boobs arnt leaking yet...... I didnt start leaking untill around 34-36 weeks with tyler.

I had to phone maternity yesterday, was in alot of pain from around 10am with what i could only describe as period pains ...but they were coming in waves, anyway around dinnertime they were no better so i phoned up and was told they tought i should be checked, they sent my midwife to see me, she listened to baby and heartbeat was all fine, checked my urine.... fine and checked my pulse etc .. again all fine.
she told me she was pretty sure it was braxton hicks!!!
I never got braxton hicks in my 1st pregnancy so i had no idea what they feel like.....but if thats what they were yesterday....... i didnt like them

 

[Phantom710]

i've ha d a few bh but mine don't really hurt, just sort've uncomfortable :S

well, i thought we were supposed to leak milk colored fluid? Mine is like clear kinda? and it's mostly at night, when the.....ladies are squished.

 

[x-TyMa-x]

Hmmm see thats what alot of people have said that braxton hicks are more uncomfortable than painful....... but these actually hurt , deffo uncomfortable too

Its maybe clear cuz its still early on, it will maybe go more milky looking as u get futher along .....LOL at the squished ladies haha! Mine used to only leak in the bath in my 1st pregnancy :S

 

[Mary Jo]

four months left, ladies. give or take a week or two

I wonder after all this, will any of us actually have an Oct 19th baby?

I leaked a bit with Adam, nothing so far that I've noticed this time. last time it was clear with orange bits in, quite weird. but normal, so far as I've read. don't recall any milky stuff till after my milk actually came in.

baby has been so active tonight. and I am getting pretty big... took a couple of bump pics yesterday (22+2):

the first is me sucking in, the second is no sucking (so all my fat + bump) and the third is me last time at around the same time (21+6). I think I'm going to be a bit of a whale...

[Phantom710]

lovely bump. i'll post some pics tomorrow hopefully.

 

[sam#3]

love bump piccys xx

the clear fluid is completely normal - its the nutrient rich colostrum... liquid gold! The milk doesnt come in until a few days after giving birth so you wont have any milky fluid until then, its the clear/arange sticky fluid up to when the milk comes in... but thats good, the colostrum is the good stuff!!

 

[x-TyMa-x]

Cute bump pics mary jo!

 

[Phantom710]

thanks sam i was really confused. thought the colostrum was gonna be white as well

 

[Phantom710]

So I just realized.....

according to my "what to Expect" book, they consider 23 weeks the start of your 6 month, so in 3 days we'll be in our six month :O

ALSO:

4 weeks and 3 days from now... we'll be in 3rd trimester :O

and then of course:

1week and 3 days til our V-DAY!!!!


CRAZY!

 

[x-TyMa-x]

Crazy!!! Roll on vday!! Yay!!

 

[sam#3]

im looking forward to V-DAY

i have a growth scan on thurs and fingers crossed she is growing fine and dandy, she is certainly active and seems to be following a pattern of every toher day she is active, so i think she really goes for it then has a rest day!!

 

[Phantom710]

Today I have my 23 week appt. They are also gonna give me another scan and hopefully get a better view of his lip this time.

Then after hubby and I are going to go look at some business real estate. ( We're opening a bookstore in a few months hopefully).

 

[x-TyMa-x]

Good luck for the scans ladies I have my next widwife check on the 1st july xx
