2014 January Rainbows

you're so right Lucy, and baby stuff is so small that a normal wash load is like 4 times as much to fold!!! Glad your hubby is helping you out.

Young I will definitely keep you posted. I have the same pressure feeling.
 
Megan so true we filled an industrial size washer since we wash at my jobs laundry room, luckily we also have industrial driers LOL

I have the pressure but was told its bc Ivan is so far down only when I walk for long periods or even if I'm in the apartment
 
I'm a bit swollen downstairs too!!! It's not painful though, just a bit of extra pressure.
I need to start washing my baby things- not that I have much yet! 31 weeks tomorrow so need to get on with things now!!
 
Rachel def get started I'm finally done now I need to remake his crib and pack his and my bags but I'm doing that tom I'm tired now

Oo and now one bb is leaking LOL just a bit but kinda weird it really made me think about getting of my meds and trying to bf I might talk to the specialist about that tho since he's the one deciding everything
 
I have a tmi confession too!

I'm a but swollen down there too, apparently it's just increased blood flow and hormones puffing it up!

But the worst bit for me is when I have sex. Ever since I found out I was pregnant after sex it s red, sore and swollen down there for about half an hour and then it returns to normal. By sore I mean stings! Obviously I had swabs to check for infection or a uti and nothing is wrong. It's only after sex and only since i have been pregnant. so now I am thinking oh lord help me if a penis is causing this much fuss imagine how it's going to sting when a baby comes out of there!

Is getting me down too cus I don't want to have sex cus of it and I feel bad for OH.
 
Emmy- I'm laughing but also feeling your pain. Sex is getting uncomfy for me too. We've been doing more 'other things!!!' to satisfy us lol. Don't feel like you have to have sex at all.
 
I miss sex !!! :(. But I didn't have any issues like that just a bit tight feeling :blush: I need to ask if I can indulge LOL I think they just didn't want me walking around but I'll ask if not I'm on a dry spell until way after delivery :wacko: poor hubby :haha:
 
Hmmm makes me worried why does it sting!? I have checked everything, all the doctor says is that it's sensitive and i must not be producing enough lubricant, but it feels wet enough to me! :blush:

I am going to try getting OH to "finish" not inside and see if that makes a difference. If not then I'm on strike!

Sorry for the TMI!

Also baby kicks me whilst we are doing it and I am sorry that is just soooooooo weird!!
 
Emmy- you made me laugh!! But I have the same problem. For about a half hour later it stings.. Then normal. I also think about what's gonna happen when baby comes if I'm already dreading what a penis is doing!! Lol and baby kicks too!!! I feel so weird like I need to apologize to her after. Lol
 
Haha glad we can laugh about this stuff!

Ahh young you have it too! I'm guessing it must be hormones affecting it, but a wee after sex is like pissing acid, it doesn't bode well for when a 10cm wide head tears through it!

Tonight I have become a vigilante neighbourhood watch! This is why I'm awake at silly o'clock. I live in London Canary wharf, an affluent area in a building that has flats worth over 1.2 million ( not mine but that's besides the point) on the river Thames and it's lovely. If I throw a stone from my flat I will hit council estates in every direction. And this is the borough with the highest rate of poverty in London. This means I get lovely visitors to the courtyard outside my building. Shouting, playing loud music, smoking, drinking, fighting, generally being anti social. Sometimes they even bring their cars and put the head lights on and open all the doors to play music like they are in a rap video. I see these same boys deal drugs in broad daylight on the street sometimes! I don't live in a bad area at all but that's London for you! Anyway they decided to wake me up (yes I had actually managed to fall asleep tonight) and I went bonkers! I called the non emergency police and was saying "I'm 7 and a half months pregnant and still go to work full time! They will just sleep all day tomoro and I will pay their benefits, move them along!" Oh gosh I was crazy! But the police were great and came and moved them on in about 15 minutes and u got to watch from the window peeping through my curtains! Now I can't sleep cus I feel like I'm an undercover cop fighting crime!
 
YAY emmy! Good for you though! But that's unfortunate that you couldn't sleep. lol all that adrenaline pumping lol :) Happy 29 weeks!

Thanks Lucy! 2 days from 30 for you!!

I have his this issue too since I got pregnant. Around 18 weeks I was frustrated so I did some research and due to pregnancy hormones some women can become allergic to semen during pregnancy.

I tested the theory by making DH wear condoms, sure enough the sting went away and I felt fine! I feel silly as a pregnant woman buying condoms but if it means it doesn't sting I will take it.
 
What?! That's crazy! Glad you found something that works...oh gosh, if I ask hubby to wear one, he'd comply, but boy, would he be disappointed..maybe it's worth a shot.
 
Yeah, I'm not thrilled about it. DH doesn't mind he says. Sometimes we still do without, but usually not back to back. I seem to be okay with one-offs.

With my UTI history and the semen thing and the fact that I tear easily, I feel like I have paid my va-jay-jay dues for the rest of my life. I'm almost 30 weeks and already ready for that epidural LOL!!

Emmy hope condoms work for you :D

Ivan is doing great according to the specialist, cord flow improved but still going to keep an eye on it, but the little stinker switched on me now he's breech and sitting literally on my bladder :/
