***(61) 2015 November Sparklers***

Catmummy - I am exhausted I wake up in the morning absolutley knackered and it doesn't go away :nope: I am zapped of all energy and no idea why as at my midwife appointment on Tuesday my iron levels are fine although I have low BP of 95/50 but it has pretty much been that the whole way through :wacko: I feel like I need to sleep all day long

I have been having a lot of BH today seems to be everytime I get up and walk about my whole bump goes tight and ouchy! also finding walking to be painful but that will be because madam is so low down :wacko:
 
I struggle to get up and walk straight away too, cause of all the pressure down there! I get my BH mainly in the evenings when I (finally) sit down but standing/sitting too fast also causes me to have them!
 
Almost there ladies!!! Can't believe we will have a baby in about 2 months.
 
It is scary but also I cannot wait 5 more weeks at work :wohoo: scary to think that next month I could have a newborn again :wacko:
 
Had my midwife appointment this morning and I'm a bit concerned. My little guy was always measuring a week or two ahead and now this time he was measuring 30cm which is what he was measuring two weeks ago. I said something to the midwife and she said not to be concerned that it can vary 1-2 and that it doesn't look like I'm having a very small baby. I also gained 3lbs in two weeks :wacko: Which I'm not too pleased with. I've gained a total of 24lbs. Don't think I'll be able to keep it at a 30lbs max weight gain like I was planning :dohh:

But other than that baby's heart rate is good and he's still head down:thumbup:

I also get braxton hicks mine are more intense when exercising, walking, and I had a pretty intense one after giving DS a bath last night. The more active I am the more I have. I'm tired but I can fool myself by staying active, the moment I let myself relax though...I"m out :haha:

Anyone else feeling emotional? I have been looking at DS and getting all emotional thinking abut how different things will be when the baby is here. I really hope he adjusts okay because he is SUCH a momma's boy :nope:
 
:hugs:

I have cried 3/4 times today and I have to stop myself from crying as feeling very emotional today :shrug:

:hugs:
 
I'm really weepy today, but I'm attributing it to being exhausted - I've not got much for sleep the past couple of days.

I remember feeling really emotional about everything when we were expecting Parker - I felt guilty for having a second, I couldn't imagine loving #2 as much as I loved #1, I thought Ethan would despise me for making him have a sibling, etc. Everybody assures you it'll be OK but it just doesn't seem like it can be! But it will be.

Its a relief - I don't worry about any of those things this time. It all worked out last time, and it'll all work out again this time. :thumbup:
 
Ha glad im not th only tired one

anyone else NOT really having any tightenings? Il get the odd one but not every day at all. However she is still veeeery low and iv had lightning crotch like mad today lol

getting excited for tomorow now i have my scan then ctg and then consultant so hoping i can find out when ther going to induce. Looks like il possibly be having an oct baby but iv got to know u guys so im hoping ul let me stay if i do have her early xx
 
Ended up at the hospital last night with reduced movements. when I was hooked up to the ctg the midwife said i'd be on there 20 minutes, that ended up turning into over an hour. Baby's heart rate was all over the place, at one point it reached 210 luckily not for long but his heart rate varied more between 110 and 180. So was kept on there till it became more stable.
she said she was going to get me sent for a scan and said it would take a few days to a week got a phone call this afternoon asking to come in at half 4.
Baby seemed fine but now they have rushed my consultant appointment through, so now instead of waiting till the 28th i'm now seeing one on Tuesday. if there was nothing wrong why would they want me to see someone so soon?
 
I think its good you listened to your gut and went in to get looked at:thumbup: They are prob moving your appointment up due to the reduced fetal movement and his rapid heart rate. I would take comfort in the fact that they are taking it seriously. Did they give any sort of explanation for the rapid heart rate? Good news is you're almost there :hugs:
 
nope, they couldn't find a reason for it, the guy doing the scan said that his heart rate was fine. work are gonna like me, my next shift isn't till Monday and have to tell them I can't go in Tuesday. just have to pop in tomorrow I think.
 
Scary, steph! I hope everything is OK and that it doesn't happen again! :hugs:
 
thank you, chances are it might do :( I had a lot of reduced movements with my second but they never did anything about it. This time they are a bit more concerned because of how his heart rate was.
 
O i hope ur ok littlesteph if thy was overly worried thy would have done something there and then. Did u not get reviewed by consultant? Thts my hospitals protocol anyway :/

no, they are doing that Tuesday I guess. my consultant was meant to be on the 28th after my next growth scan but they cancelled that appointment and brought it forward to Tuesday. the fact they've brought it forward so much is a worry,

try a hot water bottle, it should help to relax the muscles a bit.
 
Also try some back extensions, catmummy... they work fairly well for me most of the time! Just lean backward over a counter/table that is about hip-height for you.
 
Oh dear Steph. Hope your appt goes ok tmrw. My scan and appt is today. Everything crossed that she's growing ok. Bump seems to of suddenly got bigger and she has been very active so hopefully these are good sign. I still haven't gained anythig. Have also been extra tired and nauseous and been sick a few times. Ppl keep telling me I look awful. I'll put up with it though if she's ok.
 
Mrs bump im sorry ur feeling so terrible! Youv had such a hard time of it, can i b nosey and ask what your booking in bmi was to start with x
 
Sorry to hear about your scare Steph :hugs: hope your appointment goes well tomorrow at the consultant :hugs:

Mrs Bump :hugs: good luck with the scan today and the appointment I am sure she is just perfect in there :hugs:
