hehehe would you mind not hogging it actually to be fair it does look like its brightening up a little

Gosh just walked to supermarket...feel like I've run a marathon you can see it from my house so its all of a mile round trip!! oh dear

 

[gertrude]

it's a glorious day here in brum too! wish I wasn't working today but it's my last monday before ML starts and I can't bloody wait!

 

[CottlestonPie]

It's sooo muggy here. Not sunny but I'm sweating like mad walking around the shops. It's like a proper workout... I'm having to stop for a breather every time I see a chair or bench lol!

Trying to get together the last of my hospital bits. I have giant pants from asda (maternity knickers looked horrid!), some cheapaschips strappy tops and leggings for my backup bag in case I'm there for more than a day.... I think all I need to add are last minute things like camera, charger, snacks/drinks... Woohoo!
Oh, and I need a bag to put it all in

 

[gertrude]

I haven't packed a bag yet. I'm hoping for a HB but will be doing a bag anyway (if I'm not prepared for it then it's more likely to happen the great law of sod ruling my life as it does ) but I'm going away to stay with my Mum for a couple of days at the weekend and will need everything for that!

Will do it next week - pickle has their bag sorted though

Aw he's so precious! And he looks so alert too. Ohhh... Hurry up Toby! lol
Congrats again hun xx

Happy Birthday!!!

MissFox, sounds like you guys have been so busy on the cabin, but will definitely be worth it. Glad Mom's man is taking care of a lot of the work, handy to have him around for sure. You'll have to put some pics up when you're done.

Cottleston, hope you're able to get in touch with a MW soon, must be very frustrating.

Gem, sorry to hear you're dealing with more bleeding. Definitely phone the hospital/dr as you planned. Really hope it's nothing but with the bleeding they will probably want you to come in.

Smeej, hope you feel better soon!!

 

[BrandiCanucks]

Thank you Bernina.

Ranbow, he's absolutely handsome!!

So, I did a Birthday Belly. I feel freaking humungous.

 

[MissFox]

Jen- if you have GD they would probably call you that day

gem- does sound like another hospital afternoon for you

cottleston- when I first started going ot physical therapy it hurt so much more the first day or first few days afterwards but I kept up my exercises at home and the pain got less intense after a few days. And it did help the pain for why I was doing the exercises. GL

Ben is so cute rainbow!!!

Bernina- they have been very busy. It will never look like a house but for half the amount of one months rent we will have a cozy little place to live AND it's only 5 minutes from the river.

So all last night I kept waking up to cramping and it hurt in my bum too! So hard not to get your hopes up now at every little pain. I've got to go drop my truck off to get the middle seatbelt in the backseat fixed- I LOVE AUTO WARRANTYS! -and then off to my growth scan to see how big miss Rosie is getting (they think she's GIANT!)

Happy Birthday Brandi! Hope you are having a lovely day.

Gorgeous video Rainbow, am so jealous!

 

[chocojen]

Rainbow he is just lovely, I want to meet mine now.

Happy Birthday Brandi, love the birthday Bump!

Just had a call from the hospital.......all ok so I am sitting down to a cup of tea and some chocolate!!!! Best news ever as it means I can go back to original plan of having bubs at the birthing centre I am so pleased! xx

 

[MissFox]

Such great news about the GTT Jen!!!!

 

[caro103]

Glad you got the all clear choco!

Rainbow...aww he's just adorable! xx

 

[AmethystDream]

Rainbow - Ben is so so cute, very aware and such long fingers!

Gem - Blimey Hun, your little one is making you work for him. You still going up when your Mum gets home?

Consultant for us on Friday because of lil guy flipping breech again. Feeling better in myself today than I have done in a long time, which is odd considering that I'm worrying!

 

[CottlestonPie]

Have they said anything about bubs being breech to you or is that what the consultant appointment is for?
I didn't hear back from maternity unit at the hospital... Bit disappointed as now I probably won't get booked in for a consultant appointment til next week and I'll be 38 weeks by then, hmph.

 

[2ndtimeAbz]

The ladies that have breech babies at the mo, have you seen a site called 'spinning babies'? they have a few positions there that you can do to help free-up space and encourage bubs to turn. I was breech at 32 weeks and did a few nights of the breech tilt and viola next appmnt cephalic and I'm 1/5th engaged. Don't know if that was the reason but it felt good to be doing something! xx

 

[CottlestonPie]

Yeah I've been trying things from that website... Positions, warming the bottom of bump, music etc. He's not turned back yet. Head is under my ribs right over on the right hand side at the mo. Fingers crossed something works to turn him. If not at least I can say I tried!

 

[reedsgirl1138]

Hey ladies I just got home from our dr appt. Scan was great Gunner did all his movements and breathing for them. He is so cute I can't wait to met him...which as it stand may be on the 28th of this month. I have my appt next week and then on the 28th he will do a amino and if his lungs are developed he will induce me that day. So I may get to meet my little man in 2 weeks. I am so excited!!

 

[MissFox]

Just got back from my ultra sound. Jayla (my sonographer, lol) said that there is NO WAY she could have gotten her face because it's so low down and face down (basically said I was lucky we didn't have to do a trans-vag for head measurments). We could see some hair though but it could just be peachfuzz.
Rosie is measuring 5-6 days ahead and 7lbs exactly. I want her to come soon now! I should go waddle around the block a few times. I'm hoping she makes her appearance this weekend! (doubtful at this point though)
