[catmummyof4]

It hurts really bad from my belly button up to my ribs ever felt something like this? X

 

[aley28]

I've not experienced that, cat mummy - are you still in hospital? Have you asked about it?!? Hope you and baby are OK!

MrsBump, I'm glad he's stayed put, I hope it was just a false start and he intends to stay put for 3 more weeks. Being able to breath easier must be nice though When Parker dropped out of my lungs, I then felt like I was carrying him between my knees though, so I don't know that its really any better.

Catmummy - hope you are okay and being looked after in the hospital how scary

LittleSteph - hope baby picks up for you

Mrs Bump - Wow Ben is keen to arrive eh? glad the breathing & sickness have eased up but hope he decides to stay put a little longer

AFM - 34 weeks and little miss was very quiet on Saturday but yesterday and Saturday night she just didn't stop moving but OMG she feels so low down the pressure on my pelvis is unreal front & back I am now definately walking with a waddle and my pelvis feels like it is breaking in two

Mrs Bump glad Ben is still cooking
Twag that sounds terrible, good thing we are almost there!


AFM: I had my son's 2nd birthday party this weekend and we did a Maternity shoot with the family. It was a great busy weekend. But boy were my feet killing me at night. And I had the WORST cramp in my left calf at night time! I don't remember my feet hurting like this with DS although my feet were actually more swollen when I was preg with him. How bout you ladies anyone else have foot pain and leg cramps?

I had a couple pretty intense contractions this morning. They were mainly in my back. Which is common for me. I had to stop getting ready and lay down for a bit till one passed. After the last one I told myself okay if I have another I have to call the midwife. But they went away so that was a relief!

catmummy, you'll feel so much better when you can get the gallbladder out. All the pain I had when I was passing gallstones was in my back though, up in my ribcage. And lots of vomiting for me. But it was a night/day difference within hours of getting the damn thing out!

Mimzy, I've got foot pain and leg cramps! My foot pain is not from standing too much, I don't think... its joint pain and I have no idea what brought it on, but its been lingering for a week now. Its irritating

My calves cramp up at night if I so much as think about moving them wrong. Massively annoying, and painful!! I've had a couple of cramps that go so hard that they make my muscle sore for a day or two after

AND I had swelling in my feet last week, but its gone down again now. Nothing extreme, and just looking at my feet you couldn't really see that they were swollen... but my sandals were pinchy tight, which gave it away. Anyway, that's gone for now, but we'll see how long that lasts.

I'm trying to drink lots more water to see if it helps with the various issues - from constipation to the cramping to the swelling. Seems to be helping, except with the leg cramps... gonna try some magnesium for that, I think.

I have been getting foot cramps, odd shin cramp and calves but also randomly my index finger on my left hand cramps

 

[Mrs_Bump]

These Braxton hicks suck. It seems like everytime I vaguely exert myself or baby gets really active they start and they're getting more painful too. Will see what midwife says on Thursday.

 

[Twag]

I have been having these too Mrs Bump when I get up and walk around from my desk or sorting out Elliot etc I get these painful BH where I have to stop and my whole bump goes rock solid
I am fully hydrated too (my urnine sample for my midwife today was clear like water) so it isn't that

Hope it isn't Ben trying to make an early appearance Mrs Bump - are you still working at the moment or have you stopped now?

 

[littlesteph]

Got to work yesterday after getting pains all morning to be told I shouldn't really be there, stayed anyway, got back from work and phoned triage as his movements hadn't been great either, after 2 hours of being at the hospital they admit me, baby is fine, they did a scan this morning, growing nicely, they still don't know what is causing the pain. Its all across my bump and sharp pains along the bottom of my bump and c section scar. Still in hospital now. Got to wait for the doctor to see me. Had bloods taken last night, and my iron levels have come back as 9. Didn't know they were that low.

Hope all you ladies are doing ok

 

[Maries_s]

Catmummy: Hope you feel better soon
LittleSteph: Hope baby and you are ok. Are you still in the hospital? Did they find the cause of the pain?

Tomorrow I'm going to take my 3hr glucose test because I not passed my 1hr glucose test.

31 weeks today!!

 

[Twag]

LittleSteph - hope all is okay with you and baby

Good luck for your 3 hour GD test

 

[aley28]

I hope everything is OK, steph

Good luck with your 3 hour GD test, Marie_s!!!

 

[Amcolecchi]

OMG I have been getting these cramps too!! It's nice to hear because I thought I was going crazy hahaha

I have been getting foot cramps, odd shin cramp and calves but also randomly my index finger on my left hand cramps

Appointment for me today! Nothing exciting - bump measures at 35cms, and baby heartbeat was like 145. Only gained about 1 pound since 2 weeks ago too, so I'm happy with that!

My next appointment is 36 weeks, October 7 ... and they start checking my cervix at that one! Then I go in every week. OMG... the end is near! DYING to see what/if I'm dilated at all at 36 weeks. With Parker, my cervix was so high at 36 weeks that he couldn't even touch it, then at 37 weeks I was dilated to a 4, where I stayed until 39 weeks when I went up to a 5. Is each labor radically different from the one before, or can I expect latent labor for a month again this time??
