Any Scottish April 2013 babies out there??

I think some of them are great for girls and some are great for boys. I only tried pampers and huggies with Shaun and hated Huggies. I'll look out for the Lidl ones

We spent this avo moving our bedroom around and building the cot I dont know if we should get a new mattress for it. Its been in the attic for around 18 months. It has a removeable cover which we have put through the washing machine and Dave says its come out braw. Will try get some prices for new ones tomorrow.

Went to the doc tonight too and got some ranitidine so will see if that helps my heartburn. Although maybe I am expecting too much that the first dose to do anything. When i came out the chemist some dippy woman had totally blocked my car in. The ladies in the chemist noticed and sent the man who was parked behind me out to move his motor to let me out.

I got a pack from asda aswell as pampers lol i like the little angels brand from asda lol got maternity pads an breast pads in the brand to x

 

[lj2245]

Should be ok Karen. Maybe give the mattress itself a hoover? Just to remove any dustmites?

 

[Kaybee]

Ive heard good things about the asda little angels and the lidl ones. We have always used pampers and only had problems when we needed to go up a size. We did just recently try huggies pullups and they seem to be ok. Although K only wears them at night now.

I tried a few different breast pads and the ones I found best were by lansinoh - they were so comfy

 

[Kaybee]

Sorry double post :doh:

Oh yeah, will do that tomorrow

Speaking of breast pads...my breasts haven't started leaking yet. They started at 30 weeks with Shaun so it's strange!!!

Just been giggling at all the sex posts!! Ha ha!! Agree though, I definitely couldn't sit with one foot on the floor and one on the loo seat, no way!! Lol.

J and I haven't really dtd lately either. Last time was about 4 or 5 weeks ago and I was so uncomfy after!

I've bought a packet of tesco newborn size 1 and the same from asda. Bought a tub of cow and gate formula last night when we did our big shop as well, only cos it was a bit cheaper than sma and they had a decent ready made starter pack whereas sma only do single bottles from what I could find. I need to ask the midwife tomorrow though whether I'll need to take bottles in with me.

Ryan's gave me a stinkin cold and horrendous cough to go with it! Hardly slept at all last night cos of it. there's nothin i can take for it is there? Would never normally bother but the cough is making me sick

 

[Kaybee]

for boobs not leaking how are you feeling today Laura?

Emma I dont think there is anything you can take. I have some menthal chrystals which I use for steam inhalation which helps a little bit.

I didnt have any heartburn last night :woohoo: AND have not been sick today

Got the MW this morning. And kaiden's wee friend is coming here for the day after nursery.

 

[Cherrybump]

My boobs aint leaking either. They dont hurt or anything now either been like this for weeks lol.

I get random pains when sleeping now lol gett his shooting pain down my right leg to my knee and thnen it goes :S and sleeping on either side i go sore after so long. it was comfy on my left side right up until last night ....

 

[bbymc]

Damn. I thought there might be nothing. Think I'm gona go to my aunties later to distract myself lol. Otherwise I'll feel sorry for myself all day. Lol

My boobs haven't leaked at all either

How's your pelvis today Laura?

That's great news about the heartburn and sickness Karen!! Fingers crossed it continues to stay away!! Good luck at the MW. I had mine last week and had a blood test for anemia. She never called me back so I'm guessing I'm not anaemic

I get sore when I lie on one side too long too cherry. I just have to keep tossing and turning every time I'm up for a pee.

 

[bbymc]

God I'm so emotional today lol. I just phoned my auntie to check it was ok for me to visit today as I know she'll give me my tea and didn't wana just presume it would be ok. She laughed and told me not to be silly and of course I can visit any time. Lol. God knows why, but that made me burst into tears lol. Stupid pregnancy lol

 

[Cherrybump]

Awww hun, Thats one thing ive not done cried over stupid things :S i cry at tv shows lol.

Yeah i keep saying to myself should i go over to mums but im seeing her tomorrow and i dont wanna walk over get bored there and have to walk back here lol. Still pretty miserable outside. So looks like house day again and ryan left serve on so i can watch more charmed xxx

 

[lj2245]

It's awesome you haven't been sick today Karen And no HB either! Yay!!

A cold would be TERRIBLE right now so you have my complete sympathy Emma I've woken every morning for the past 2 weeks with a sore throat but it's always gone by lunch time.

I'm ok today. I think I managed to locate my cervix and there's nothing exciting going on there so any thoughts I had that I might go early are well and truly gone!

Shaun has his first confession tonight so I'm taking him to Nandos for dinner on the way to Glasgow. I think I'll pop in to Asda Living and see what they have while we are there (Glasgow Fort) They had Avent and Tommee Tippee nipple shields for 80p (with case) last time I was there months ago so I'll be getting more of them if they still have them! It must have been a pricing error as they are £6 in Asda and everywhere else.

 

[bbymc]

Yeah, this is a horrible time to get a cold. It's made me so exhausted, sore and way over emotional! I'm hoping some good food and company this afternoon cheers me up cos Ryan won't b home til 12am or something! think I'll have a bath soon to see if that helps!

I hope Shaun's first confession goes well! Be nice to have a wee meal just the two of you too.

I've not got nipple shields. Do you need them?

 

[lj2245]

No I don't think so but I have them because I have flat nipples and found it difficult to BF Shaun. Someone on here suggested them when I asked if there was anything I could do to help. I think the difficulty latching was what caused the infection that ended my BF last time! Some people like to use them if they get sore nipples so if you find them cheap enough it could be worthwhile having them just incase. At 80p I thought it was worth it but not sure if I'd have paid £6.

 

[Kaybee]

MW appt went well. Got more bloods to check iron but Ive still to take iron tablets.

Ive never been to Nandos. I keep thinking we must try it but we dont have one in Perth. Think dunfermline is the nearest.

Hope Shauns confession goes well.

I had to use nipple shields for a few days when my nipple was incredibly sore with Kaiden they did help for that.

Hope you get a lovely afternoon Emma. Maybe a bit of fresh air will help your cold a bit

 

[arlene]

Hi ladies, hope everyone is feeling better!!

I had the mw this morning and got blood taken as well. Having to see another mw at my 38 week app as mine is on hols so the week she comes back is totally booked. James is head down and engaged already!! Yay!! She did say before I left "good luck if you deliver before we next see you!" I was like say what now?!? Lol. Just a wee bit scary that we're now good to go, it's just whenever he feels cooked enough! Eek!!!

How long til your section now Karen? Xx
