I wish peeing was my problem! I maybe pee twice in the night? My hips wake me up, they're so very sore. Walking helps, so I'm a little grateful when I get up to pee! Haha.

Congrats allforthegirl! That's lovely news. xx

Yay! Congratulations on your rainbow!!

I hope everyone else is doing well? I really can't believe how quickly time is going. 30 weeks to me has always felt like the home straight and we're all either there or almost there! Exciting! X

Yeah I think the 30 week mark is a biggie too! Not long now omg.

Fantastic bump

Eeek I am almost down to double digits

Yay!

Gp lovely pics xx

I think everyone who even knows oh and/or myself would know not to buy anything religious lool xx

My arm has been quite sore from the whooping cough jab. Definitely worth it though x

 

[MissR]

Allforthegirl that is such great news! Congrats

Ginger I love that cake!! Did it taste as good as it looks?

Lovely bump pic dark star!

I'm almost at 30 weeks! Feels so unreal. Is everybody prepared? I only have a few things left to buy, mainly my hospital bag stuff, but I still feel really unprepared! Xx

 

[Charmed86]

Haha, we've bought most things but the nursery is not ready. We still need it decorating & the furniture is all flat packed still!! It's taken us *months* to find someone to do up the nursery for us & it's driving me mad. We still don't have a completion date for it. Argh. With my GD, Oliver might come earlier than we expect too, so I need it doing asap! Not that it makes any difference to the bl**dy decorators!!

 

[GingerPanda]

The cake was good! It was actually a grocery store cake (Publix), and only cost $18! It was originally a dinosaur, but they put little wings on it for me to make it a dragon.

 

[MissR]

Charmed, must be frustrating for you not having it ready! Have they not set a date for when it will be completed by? Luckily, we seem to finally be getting there with the nursery. I have been hand painting stars onto his wall for what seems like an eternity! But finally am coming to an end! We have his furniture in and just need to put the cot together now.

GP that's so cute they did that for you! Making me want some cake now xx

 

[Mississippi03]

Hmmmm maybe in a few weeks can we start an october owls nursery picture sharing thread? So we can just share pics of our adorable baby rooms??? Is anyone else into this idea?? Lol id start it but im not ready to share yet hah

 

[Dark_Star]

My baby room is just piles of disassembled things and folded used baby clothes right now. I'm not worrying about it too much before the babies come as they will be in my room for the first 3 months or so, and I will feel better about doing all the labor to sort it out after they are safely born.

 

[tallybee]

Ahhhh I wish we had a room! Baby will have her cot next to my bed! My oh is so crap at getting anything done I just know she will be a toddler before he gets his finger out do it'll all fall to me. It's really irritating as he has lots of handy skills but getting him to start jobs is hard enough never mind finish them! I'll have to save up the money I save from my bargains rather than buying brand new and get a man in to do most of it. We really need the loft space as a 4th bedroom so need stairs instead of the ladder access. But the whole loft is full of his crap!

Hi ladies - 29 weeks today!


Heartburn... Need I say more?!?!

Tums isn't helping not one bit

 

[CrazyMumma]

Scan in the morning and I am nervous as hell. Last time bub had dropped from the 32 percentile to below the 10th. Hoping for some good growth!

69 days to go here. C sec at 38-39 weeks means 55 days to go. That's if baby is growing well other wise they will bring baby earlier. Its feeling very real!

 

[Twag]

Good luck with your appointment today

 

[apreslaube]

Good good luck crazymumma! !!

So my MIL's friend gave her a stroller/car seat system for me. It expired December 2014. I told her it's awesome and I'll use it as a stroller but I can't put that in the car. Another friend gave her a used car seat but this one is good till 2018 and I looked it up. It gets really good reviews so I'm happy about that. Anyway, one of her friends is throwing my baby shower. At her house. I'm so confused! I've spent a little time with this woman but I don't get why she is throwing it! It's super nice but I'm just like, this is awkward. ... lol.

 

[DoubleTFun]

Well yesterday at my 28 week appointment I was measuring 39 weeks. Thanks to my huge bump. My boys have been more active the last 3 days and waking me up during the night having parties in my tummy. Now if I rest my laptop on my belly they bounce it off. They are getting stronger by the day!

 

[GingerPanda]

Good luck, CrazyMumma!

I have a growth checkup scan tomorrow.


I feel like Luci has been moving less the last week or so, but I've been so busy, it's hard to tell. She used to be most active when I laid down for bed, but that hasn't been the case for about a month, so I guess her pattern is changing. This stupid anterior placenta probably isn't helping either. I do still feel her move every day, and her heart rate is normal. We don't have the NHS, so I really don't want to go to the ER and get charged $2000 for them to tell me she's fine.

 

[apreslaube]

Ginger. I have anterieor placenta too. I was feeling decreased movement at my last appointment so they sent me for a biophysical ultrasound. Edison was kicking a ton, I just wasnt feeling mostly because I was a bit dehydrated. Are you drinking lots of water?

 

[tallybee]

Hey xx

Good luck crazymumma xx

Ginger, I second making sure you're drinking enough xx

LO has been moving loads still, she's turned fully round several times in the last week - I can feel the difference in where she kicks! I don't think the anterior placenta is making as much difference to feeling now that she's getting this big.

 

[GingerPanda]

I have been trying to drink more water. I find if I drink too much, I end up throwing it up when I cough or burp. I suppose I will keep on drinking more and just start carrying around my puke bowl from first tri again.

 

[3boys]

Tomorrow I have glucose tolerance test in morning and then I have to go to fetal assessment unit for ecg and heart echo they are worried about palpitations but I thought it was normal in pregnancy.

 

[MissR]

Mississippi I love that idea! I just put up the cot bed today... Baby's room is tiny, it is the box room but I am grateful my LOs won't have to share as my DD likes her own space! I am in love with his room and can't wait to show it off when it's finished!

Crazymumma - good luck and hope all goes well

I am another who struggles to drink enough water. I just kind of forget. But my Brixton hicks keep on getting more frequent so I should really drink more. I was told off by midwife at 28 week check so should deffo be drinking more x
