Forums New posts
WOO HOO! Only 5 weeks to go, 2 weeks til full term! Happy 35 weeks!!!!

Oh and I'm back drinking tea too. Pre preg I drank 6-8 cups a day, totally went off it in first tri, had the odd cup in 2nd tri and have 1-2 cups now. I have decaf if I can but it's not the same!
 
Lovely bump :) DH will take my bump pics after work, and you'll all already be in bed. Silly time zone changes. hehe.
 
My 35 weeks- cute bump mummy!


So last night I was up awake alllll night with cramps. Felt aweful. I couldn't make them go away and they were too uncomfortable to sleep....

anyone think something could be wrong or is this just the way it goes?

I think unless it gets much worse and you are contracting.. losing water... losing blood etc then yep its just end of pg cramps... could be baby engaging, could be cervix thinning, could be stretching of the uterus and softening of ligaments etc....
i have been having lots of uncomfortable nights lately too, i think its our bodies way of preparing us for the sleepless ngihts we are about to get!!!
 
I just noticed something..... for the first time, I don't find my ticker funny.

Is my uterus really that big? :help:
 
Thanks sam- Its not contracting. Just constant cramp pain. Wish it would let me be for a bit, im feeling super icky! Like horrible period and I dont want my period!
 
I thought earlier as much as i cannot wait to have my cookie i am not looking forward to bleeding again!! Im hoping breastfeeding will hold it off for at least 6 months again like it did with harry!!
 
I am NOT looking forward to period at all. I hate hate hate that time of month. And its what I feel like now so it isnt pleasant! I will BF just to keep it away. Haha
 
Definately not looking forward to that. Hoping I can keep it off at least until I get on BC again, because I have horrrrriiibbbllleee periods. I don't know if i'm going to be lucky nd hold off since I'm BF-ing. my mom BF exclusively and she got her period at 8 weeks, and every month after that.

But I've also heard of people holding it off for upwards of a year/ year and a half. :shrug:
 
Ny- Your bump looks fab! :)

My periods will prob come back quicker than you ladies as i dont plan to BF , I tried with Tyler and then stopped after 3 days but he got the chlostrem stuff which is meant to be important, If i can i will try give this LO the chlostrem stuff too but if i find it as painful as i did with Tyler then i wont be carrying on.
 
I didnt last with my daughter either. I tried but with a c section I was in so much pain already, we will see. This time I feel more like I actually want to do it so I may be able to manage, but will keep an open mind.
 
mine didnt return until 6 months exclusive breastfeeding and i didnt ovulate until 8 months ebf
that would be nice to have that again - especially as once im ov'ing again im getting a copper coil fitted and they are rumoured to make your periods heavier and more painful

I'm probably going to get an IUD as well, not a copper one though. This one, Mirena, is made of plastic. But I want to talk to my doctor long and hard about my options first.
But hopefully BF will keep the :witch: away for a while!!

I've been getting constant period pain cramps as well. I've got a dr appt today, so I'll ask and see what's what.

Here's my 35 +1 week bumpy (it's a right proper shelf now lol):

Great bumps mummy and kate! Love it

Kate- let me know what doc says about AF cramping. I'd be interested to know.
glad you are still pregnant, you are doing great keeping him in there!

I did an xray of a woman whose IUD pierced through to the abdominial cavity. SCARY!
 
Okay so here is yesterday's bump, along with one from 31 weeks, just wanted to see a side by side of how much i'd grown in a month :)

and holy crap :O
