It's getting so close now, can't believe how quick it has went in.... Glad u girls are liking ur antinatal ours started on mon at wishaw they were good.

Found out last week our boy is in frank breech I've to go on the 20th to maybe get a scan and they will decide whether its a section or not. Xx

 

[Cherrybump]

Heeyy, i love the classes but yesterday but i was in pain i mess up my card thing i was to read out lol

I had to wait back as she was calling the doctor to get me Antibiotics. Turns out i have a UTI she found blood and white blood cells in my urine. Glad i got there early enough to tell her lol She ask me if i was having any contractions but i said i dont think i was... Lol wasnt to sure what they felt like to say yeah im having them but good news is the pain killers are working and the pain as left my back lol. Need to take them for 7 days lol and i see Anne again on tuesday for my 36 week update.

Yeah there was defo alot of questions being ask and i think most parts were covered lol. If my contractions are anything like those back ache pains i got to start with i think ill be up'ing my pain relief lol but will try and stick out the gas and air for as long as poss. xxxx

I had stupid BH contractions all night last night. I had heard they were worse 2nd time around but didn't really realise how bad they would be!

Glad you're all enjoying your classes

Cheryl, there's a site called spinning babies, have a look at some of the exercises on there and see if you can get him to turn!

My baby's been head down at every midwife appt but recently I've been stressing that he/she isn't head down anymore. Duno why. I guess all the prebirth worries are creepin up on me!

 

[lj2245]

I think mine has engaged a little over the past hour or so. I have had constant BH's. It's soooo painful. They dull down then peak again but never seem to go away completely. Oh the joys!

 

[Kaybee]

Cherry hope you start to feel better soon.

I am exhausted today. Kaiden snuggled up next to me on the sofa and I thought he was going to nap. Nope, as soon as I got comfy he started prodding me in the face.

Baby has been head down for me too. At my scan yesterday they reckon it won't be able long before they can't get the artery in the brain they need to measure as baby he is getting to low. Scan went well though. Although I felt really light headed during it. Don't know if it was the way I was laying on the bed or the hour wait. Maybe I hadn't drunk enough. I know that I am not getting enough fluids cause they just make me sick if I am not eating too. Thank goodness the end is getting near.


I'm not craving it but I would really like an indian. Chicken Tikka Chasni, with naan, poppadoms and spicy onions. The heartburn would just be too much though. That is going to be my treat once baby is here I think. Maybe a wee slurp of rose too

 

[lj2245]

I was thinking about having a chasni with peshwari naan tonight Stephen is on another long day so won't be finished until 10pm. He has worked 7am until 10pm 2 days running, so we can pay off this credit card. Poor guy.

 

[Kaybee]

Aww no I'm so jel. Well not the naan cause I don't think I like that one. Does that have coconut on it? We are having spag bol & garlic bread tonight. Got mince to use up and its Kaiden's fave. Got some mint choc chip ice cream for afters. nom.

 

[Kaybee]

Ooo baby is a watermelon now

 

[lj2245]

Ooohh so he is! Yay! Watermelons are pretty big so it's maybe the most accurate of all the fruit sizes we've had hehe

Yeah it had sugary coconut in the middle...all gooey and sweet. I love it! The supermarket peshwari is different. It's not as sweet and has flaked almonds so it's kinda nutty.

So jealous about the mint ice cream. I think I'm going to have to go to the shop for ice cream and some magazines so I can stuff my face and then lie in the bath for a few hours hehe

We had spag bol on Thursday. I had mince to use up too lol. Shaun loves it. Steak pie is his favourite though

So excited about tomorrow! We are being a taxi service to need to go to Lanark to pick up Stephen's mum in the morning then to Edinburgh to drop her off, then drop Stephen off then I'll be heading to meet you guys I've to pick Stephen back up at half 2, 3ish The 2 course lunch menu looks awesome. £11 for either starter and main or main and dessert

 

[Kaybee]

<off to check menu>

 

[lj2245]

It's the 'Specials Menu'. I haven't decided on a main but I want the chocolate waffles for sure haha. I'd actually like the bruschetta and waffles but you cant have starter and dessert lol.

 

[Kaybee]

Mmm see I'd normally go for starter and main and was thinking bruschetta as well until I spotted the waffles Think it says you can go for 3 courses for another £2 something

My mum is having Kaiden for me as DH is working. She is thinking of taking him to the zoo so she said they would drop me off so I should have a couple of hours. I'm quite glad they are dropping me off since our car isn't booked in to get fixed until Tuesday and I noticed yesterday that bump must of gotten quite a bit bigger/firmer in the last week as I really notice him getting in the way when I am driving.

See, I like coconut I just think it needs chocolate with it.

 

[Cherrybump]

Ooo congrats to been 37 weeks hun. Ill be 36 weeks tomorrow got another midwife app on tuesday .

Im feeling much better thanks. think i should have some boucing time on this ball lol when i normall feel around above my pubic bone area i can normal feel what im guessing is her head but it doesnt seem to feel the same pass few nights so i said to midwife yesterday about it but that subject kept getting change lol so its a good think i see her tuesday so she'll feel better than me lol xx

 

[lj2245]

Could we manage 3 courses at 12?? Would that be shameful?

Glad you're getting dropped off. I just decided to go to the indian instead of getting a delivery...more so I could get mags and chocolate Got home and they have given me the wrong thing :'( I just phoned them and they are sending me the right order but wanted me to pay a delivery charge. I told them there was no way I was paying to fix their mistake lol. My dinner will prob be freezing and spat in by the time it gets here lol.

Stephen just realised he hasn't got me or his Mum anything for mothers day. I told him not to feel bad, he has been working such long hours and honestly hasn't had time to sort anything. His Mum will have a right moan at him though so he will have to get her something in the morning before he picks her up. I don't normally see much of Shaun on Mothers Day anyway, he gets home at 6pm and goes to bed at 8. I like it best when he makes me a card so maybe I will get one of those It's just a crappy excuse to make people spend money anyway.

 

[bbymc]

I think we could do 3 courses at 12 lol. It all depends where baby is lying for me though. Sometimes I can eat loads, sometimes next to nothing lol.

Ryan's just watching the game in a pub in south queensferry. So I'll be there until the game is over and he comes to get me.

That's such a shame Stevens been working so hard. When he's on paternity leave, I bet even with the baby, it'll feel like a holiday to him lol.

 

[bbymc]

I agree about pashwari naan btw. It'd be awesome with chocolate in it lol

 

[lj2245]

He's got a week holiday starting the 28th March then he's going on to nightshift His boss has said he can take his paternity leave the day baby is born. He's then on a 6 week stint of nightshifts before he moves on to another line.

 

[bbymc]

Aw that's not good. That'll be very tough on both of you! still, at least you know it's only for 6 weeks. Not that that's much consolation.

 

[lj2245]

Yeah he only needs to do one 6 week stint a year It's just rubbish that it's when baby will be newborn. I guess newborns don't really know night from day right enough
