2019 Junebugs

Yay Mrs.JJ for viability! That's such a huge milestone!

I wish we would get a little snow where I live. We actually had two days of snow last year and it was amazing! Granted, you could still see grass poking through, but hey, beggars can't be choosers lol.

I have another appointment with my high risk specialist on the 19th to make sure my cervix hasn't funneled or shortened anymore! I'm sure my progesterone is doing it's job though.
 
@BellaRosa8302 isnt that always the way! Reduced movement and then you go to hospital and the baby starts tap dancing! I’m glad all is ok. It’s so exciting isn’t it!!! New babies! Eek!

@DaTucker hopefully all is well with your cervix. Will you continue to be monitored now? Will you stay on the progesterone?
 
DaTucker - Best of luck to you!!! Those cervical checks are NOT fun at this stage in pregnancy! (They checked mine at the hospital.... I don't envy you!) :hugs:

Mummy - YES!!! Right?!? At the hospital, baby was PISSED at the contraction monitor strapped around my belly. Kept kicking at it. I'm all "Oh THERE you are!!! Couldn't have done that earlier, could you have?" :haha:
 
Oh my stars. Anyone else dealt with insomnia? So tired but once I wake up to go to the bathroom, I have the hardest time going back to sleep. :nope:
 
Jules - YES! For most of this pregnancy actually. I can say the last 3 nights or so I've slept through with only minor interruptions when I turn over, (& hoping this streak keeps on going!) but prior to that, usually I'd wake up somewhere between 12 and 2 and be up for 2-3 hours. NOT fun!!! Hope it passes for you soon! <3
 
Oh I’m the opposite - I cant sleep enough. I can go to bed at 8 and sleep until 6, and still have a hard time getting up. I could nap after work, too. So sleepy!
 
Not sleeping sucks!!! Pregnancy is hard work and running on no sleep is rubbish. I’m crap at sleeping before pregnancy.... just think ladies soon we will have massive bumps which take some moving when in bed... and then the bladder the size of a gnat! :haha:
 
Wifey - I relate to that too! I have gotten used to the 2-3 hours of being awake in the middle of the night, going back to sleep and NOT wanting to get up! I'm exhausted during the day! Usually can fall asleep just fine at first, but then wake up. Again though, fingers are crossed that's over with! <3

24 week appointment after work today! <3 <3 <3 Counting down the seconds till I get to leave! I'm in the middle of testing students and I've had a couple of my stubborn ones today. Both silently refusing to work. I'm out of tricks & patience. Ready to go home!
 
Does anyone know anything about car seat expiring ? My friend mentioned this today never heard of it before Cannot check mine until DH gets it out!

Mummy2corban does your Maxi Cosi have a expiration date on ? Apparently it’s meant to be on the underneath near the manufacture date ?! Apparently Maxi cosi have a 10 year life span ?!

BabyBump - Yes! There will definitely be a date of manufacture on your carseat, if not also a date of expiration. If you just have the date of manufacture, you may have to look up how many years the brand/model is good for. We have two hand-me-down car seats in DH's car (from a trusted friend - just for quick daycare pickups when I'm unable to get the kids) & had to toss one and purchase a new one. The second one expires in October, so we have until then to grab a new one for DS.
 
Hi ladies!
I had no idea what car seat/expiry dates etc and got one for free from someone on the Freecycle website.
When my mum found out, she said we would need to get it security checked before using it as it may have hairline cracks in it or other damage that is not visible to the eye.
Apparently Halfords offer this service.

I had a thought the other day...I wondered if this website is Global and where all of you ladies are based!?? I'm in London, UK...wasn't sure if you are all from all over the the world of it is UK only!?

Finally, happy Valentine's day to you all!
Love was certainly in the air for us as we got to see our little fella again and his brain (which couldn't be measured at the last scan) was all as it should be!!

Oh wow thanks so much ! I always thought the seats were ok long as no obvious damage or been in a accident ! We bought ours in either November or December 2012 ... it’s no doubt expired !
 
Yes there is a sticker on the seat. If you google it you’ll be able to find out how to read it. Xx

Thanks ! I do remember there is a orange sticker on it somewhere so it’s probably on there!

I will need another Maxi Cosi as that fits the pram adapters we have !
 
Wifey- I am the same way. I went through a brief window of not feeling exhausted but now between chasing after a toddler, going to school full time and working full time I am beat!

LarZ- I am from the States, Syracuse, NY to be exact!
 
Pregnancy is exhausting when you already have children to look after , with all the school runs , household chores etc ! We need to remember to take five minutes with a cuppa and a biscuit !
 
For those interested about the car seat expiry . Email response direct from Maxi Cosi - ! Fingers crossed mine will be good!

Thank you for getting in touch with us here at Maxi-Cosi with regards to expiry dates with our products.

We are pleased to confirm that all of our products have 10 years of use from manufacturing date, this is all car seats and IsoFix bases. Providing they have not been involved in any kind of impact and stored correctly. After this time we recommend to upgrade to a newer model as the materials naturally degrade.

Should you require any further assistance please do not hesitate to get in touch with our Customer Care Team via email or telephone 01284 413141 Monday-Friday8.30am-5.30pm.
 
@Babybump87 with this I agree but I’m going off cups of tea again... and this pregnancy I’m not enjoy sweet stuff so much. Same as my other boys??? Hmmmm!!!

Is anyone having any symptoms similar to other pregnancies? Do you think you have the same symptoms for the same sex babies?! Or is it just random????
