Well, our weather has been TERRIBLE so far this year so it hasn't been hot out at all (and I normally LOVE hot weather so I wasn't sure if the heat would bother me or not). So up until now, the heat was not bothering me (mostly because there wasn't any), but suddenly this weekend, despite it being miserable and rainy outside, I got struck by the Hot Flash Fairy! :p I spent pretty much all weekend sweating bullets and wanting to scream and rip all my clothes off (not super appropriate since I was at a family reunion). :haha: Thankfully my DH was nice and kept bringing me cool, wet cloths to drape over my neck. I have no idea why I was so hot since, as I said, it wasn't hot out (or in) at all, but I guess I finally understand what all these pregnant people are talking about! I suppose I've been lucky to only start suffering with this now! So, all you ladies who are actually experiencing hot weather - I feel for you!

Tracie - That is a scary experience! I'm glad things seem to have settled down now.
 
I understand what you are saying about being sooooo hot!!!! A few days ago I was going to a few stores with DH and DD's, and we was in one store when I kept sitting down since hubby was trying to look for shoes for you DD's. We walked into the clothing area and that is when I said, this store should have chairs in all aisles so you can sit down. My hubby looked at me and started to laugh. I was just so hot and tired, I couldn't wait to get in a store where it was cool, but that never happened. My DD's was cold but I was just sweating!!

My appt & scan on Wednesday went well. No issues which I am happy about except my blood pressure was a little high. I will go to my next appt next wednesday and another scan to make sure he is growing and doing well. Well now on to my weekly visits with my ob and the scans. I hope I can get all of them on the same day. As of Wednesday he weighs 3 lbs and 11 oz. The Dr said that he think that he might weigh 7lbs at birth. I guess that is not too bad since I was hoping for 6. Have any of you received the tdap vaccine? DH don't want me to get it until after I have the baby. He said both of our DD's was fine without it. My ob keep asking me to get it but I told him that I am getting it after I deliver the baby.
 
Been midwife this morning, I'm still measuring nearly 2wks bigger and baby is no longer transverse he is head down but not engaged but because this is baby number 3 he might not engage until labour. Iv been told I need to pack my hospital bag just incase x
 
Hey ladies, just letting you know the first August baby was born today, announced on the Facebook thread! The babies are starting to make their appearances!!
 
Just had pushchair delivered.... Scary! Now just need baby to put in it hehe :)
 
Congratulations mysteriouseye!! Hope you and your little one are doing well!

Thanks for the update clynn.
 
Random question, does anyone know if it's normal for just one boob to leak? My left one has started leaking clear fluid (I'm presuming colostrum?) But the right one isn't leaking at all. A bit worrying!
 
I've read its normal.

My left leaks a lot. My right has only leaked maybe once or twice
 
I think it's normal :) I haven't had any leaks except one at like 13 weeks out of one boob
 
Ive woken up twice now with my shirt soaked on one side and completely dry on the other- my husband thinks its hilarious :)

Haha I was sat at the table having breakfast with my dd yesterday morning and was wearing a pj top with no bra and my daughter (she is 3) gave me a funny look and went "what is that?!" I looked down and the left side of my top had a huge wet mark as my boob was leaking, I explained to her that it was mummy's boobies getting the milk ready for her little sister and she was like "no I don't want milk to come out, not yet...make it stop now please" haha made me laugh, especially the grossed out look on her face lol.

Today my boob has leaked almost none stop, just the left one still! My nipple stings quite a bit!
 
Haha wow - so many people with leaking boobs! Mine aren't leaking at all yet. It sort of makes me worry that there's no colostrum in there, but I've read it can be completely normal not to leak.

This is my third, and I have yet to leak before the baby was born. I also have never had trouble breastfeeding, or with supply. Don't worry, it will happen when the baby comes:)
 
I think I'm losing bits of my plug.... This child is determind to test me lol. Got mw on Monday so gunna ask for a full MOT. He feels so low now can't lift my legs without feeling like I'm squishing him :-(

I could have written myself...

I have lost a bit of what I suspect is plug twice now. But I have heard it just regenerates if it's not a lot, and it's not bloody (just what I have heard though). And she feels SO low, like... if she somehow hasn't dropped I don't know HOW she is going to get any lower. I feel her move behind my pubic bone... and I have never felt her kick my ribs.
 
Thank yourself lucky as my ribs are regularly used as a xylophone, and leverage to move. There isn't a part of my bump that doesn't hurt now lol, and I no exactly what's to come lol
 
I can't figure out why she doesnt kick my ribs! I don't understand it, as thats what everyone tells you to be prepared for! lol But nobody has ever told me to prepare for the pushing on the hipbones like she does! I wonder if she is a small baby and can't reach my ribs? I feel like maybe I have gotten one or two rib kicks before I feel like she dropped.
