How about you, how has this pregnancy been for you?

Ive had pretty bad lower back pain, going to see an osteopath tomorow.

Congrats

 

[DeeM73]

Only 10 weeks for me!!! Keeping fine thanks,just taking bad doing everything at a slower pace and struggling to bend!! Just the usual pregnancy 'aches and pains'!!! lol Good luck at the osteopath xx

 

[Bats11]

Wow Dee, only 10 wks!!
My osteo went really well, he is my saviour.
Im out shopping with my elderst daughter today, she's just gone into smiggles shop, its a stationary shop, so im sitting on a bench waiting for her. We've had coffee & milkshake, love going shopping with my girls, my youngest daughter is having a day out with dad, he has a harley so they go for a ride.

 

[DeeM73]

I know it's going in fast!!!I was at my midwife yesterday and baby is lying transverse,had me up most of the night jumping and flipping about!!! lol Going in town for breakfast this morning and might do a spot of shopping too x

 

[Bats11]

I love going out for breakfast!

Yesterday when we were out at the park, we saw a family with 6 boys under the age of 6, two sets of twins!!! I had a little chat with her and she said that the last set of twins were an oops! & I said to her nothing is an oops they were meant to be! & she agreed, but did say its alot of hard work! Wow can you imagine Dee what a handful. And then I looked over to the right and saw another family with a disabled little boy in a wheelchair and boy does that put everything into perspective!

And Im not joking I just heard from a friend of mine that her hairdresser has just had their 7th daughter, Wow! BIG FAMILIES EVERYWHERE x

Did you end up doing some shopping?

 

[DeeM73]

Wow 6 boys under the age of 6!!!!! Now that is a handful but so worth it This is definitely our last so there will be no BIG family for us!!
It certainly does put everything into perspective.
Yes I got a little shopping Keep saying still have a while to go but the 'big' day will be here before we know it!!! lol x

 

[Bats11]

Sure will be here before you know it!

Had my general doctor checkup today & got to see my baby, he just done a quick ltl ultra sound in his office, was so exciting!

I get so excited & cant wait till she's here, but then some days i feel a little anxious, you know cause my girls are so independant now, not with everything but you know what i mean & then to have a newborn who is totally dependant on me just makes me feel a little anxious at times, only when i start thinking about it, how about you Dee?

 

[DeeM73]

Aww that was nice my next scan is at 34 weeks
I know what you mean some days I can't wait and others I'm so nervous and scared :shocked: my kids are very independent too and so used them just doing their own thing and now it will be like being back at square 1 but it will be worth it x

 

[Bats11]

yeah thats for sure Dee, all worth it!

Im in a cleaning frenzy at the moment must be nesting ha ha

Ive been getting cramps in my calves through the night, this morning I got a massive cramp in my right calve it hurt so bad grrr

Anyway we visited my parents yesterday and mum was saying "you know it would be nice for you to have another one close in age with this baby" and my eyes almost popped out of my head and I said "mum I know you like even numbers but we are very happy to have only 3, 3 is our magic number!"

How have you been feeling?

 

[DeeM73]

Feeling not too bad,had a slight sore throat over the weekend and hoping it doesn't come to much.I've been getting bad cramps too some nights I have to get up oh the joys!Sleeping is all over the place too but apart from that fine!ha ha
So funny about your mum!! 3 is definitely the magic number x

 

[Bats11]

I had a sore throat 2weeks ago & a cough, hope it goes away for you quickly.

Yeah my mum is a funny woman!

My sleep is all over the place also, some nights i sleep really good then other nights its not so good.

Yes the joys of pregnancy but we wouldnt have it any other way would we Dee, cause its so worth it in the end.

 

[DeeM73]

Sure is worth it
Well now woke up to a real sore throat and head cold just great!Too good to be true!How you feeling?x

 

[Bats11]

Awww poor you Dee, when being pregnant it is easier to catch colds, viruses, hope it goes away for you quickly.

Im feeling really great thanks.

My girls are so damn cute, they have drawn up their own little calendars and are counting down the days until they meet their baby sister. My youngest read a book to my belly last night, asking me "mum Anabelle can hear me, right? but she cant feel me kissing your belly, can she?"

Ive started cleaning out the study room as its going to be babies room, its so exciting to do this, sometimes it still doesnt feel real until she is here, you know what I mean?

 

[Bats11]

Hey Dee any feeling on the date you think bubs will be born?

Im thinking Anabelle will be here between the 17th & 20th of June, my due date is 28th of June, I have a feeling she will be a Gemini star sign, as Cancer starts from the 22nd of June.

 

[DeeM73]

Feeling a little better thanks but still full of it Last 2 days I felt awful
Isn't that so sweet of your girls!!! Kids are just amazing Not sure what room the baby is going to have,our study is downstairs and the other 2 don't want that room!!! ha ha I'm sure we'll find a way though,you just do.
Not sure what date to be honest,baby was lying transverse 2 weeks ago plus the placenta is lying low.I am at midwife today so will see if the baby has moved also have a scan in 2 weeks to see if placenta has moved.Have a feeling baby will be early though!!! Hope you're well x

 

[Bats11]

Hope all goes well with bubs & placenta at the end of the day you will be holding your baby boy or girl before you know it.

There's always a way Dee, we live in a 4 bedroom two storey house, so all rooms are upstairs.

I start my insulin on monday, just need to inject myself once a day thank goodness, i dont like needles but it needs to be done to keep my baby safe & healthy.

Hope u start feeling better!

Im going out shopping tomorrow with my youngest daughter & dad is spending the day with our eldersr daughter, we like to do this often gives them special time with each parent & they love it.

So Dee what are your kids interests?

 

[DeeM73]

Yeah that's the way I see it too what will be will be.At the midwife at my doctors surgery today and baby is still transverse but she said there is still plenty room to move around so fingers crossed!Yeah feeling much better today thanks,think the worst is over Do you have to take insulin every day until baby is born?Don't like needles either but like you say got to be done.We will work out the room situation when needs be it would be nice to have a nursery ready for the baby but we'll get there one way or another.
My daughter is into shopping and spending time with friends,she did go to dancing but gave that up after Chritmas,got a little fed up of it.My son loves football and most other sports.He is off to the football tomorrow not sure what our plans are for the weekend yet x

 

[Bats11]

Hey Dee, i also hope your baby moves for you, but everything will be fine even if he/she doesnt.

Yes i do need to have insulin, once a day till she's born. Ive been feeling tired lately, in the afternoons, but im so glad that i have no more back pain, my osteo fixed me all up!

So are you all better now?

My elderst daughter does ballet & jazz & my youngest daughter does singing & art & both girls love tennis.
