hey all, not been online for abit. have i missed any births? how is everyone?
well i had my midwife appointment on 15th and it went well. baby is fine, heartbeat is still good, and hes nearly fully engaged (4/5). my womb is fully developed, but its been that way since 32weeks.......my scan showed it was fully done. suprises me though because i was only 32weeks at the time.
makes me wonder just how long he will go for, if my womb is done already then doesnt that mean that theres not much more room for him to grow?!
i dont know. my OH asked the midwife if theres a chance that he'd come early because hes measuring 2weeks ahead and because of my womb.....she said that on my next scan (3rd august) they will see how much hes grown etc, if hes measuring full term then theres a chance they may induce me. but we'll see. well other than that, shes sending me for physio, im not sure when i'll get the appointment though. i have been getting bruise like aches in my pelvic area and it also cracks alot, which hurts. plus ive been suffering with my legs, so the physio may help me. i hope so.
anyway, it was my birthday on 16th. i turned 22. it was pretty good i suppose. my mum paid for me to have my hair cut, then i went to visit my sister. i got a few cards and presents/money. was sweet of people, as i know these are the ones who are low on money. i was p*d off with my dad though, i havent had anything from him for 4 years, not even a cheap card, i dont mind not getting presents from people but it doesnt cost too much for a card. its the thought that counts, even last year he didnt even text "happy birthday" to me, my mum had to text him first. hes acting more and more like a prick each day, im not saying that just because he didnt get me anything for my birthday, its other stuff, years of crap....but thats a loooooong story.
he makes me so angry, and sad to be honest.
well it was a good day really, had hair done, got visits from sisters, had a lovely nap with my fiance then we got a take away
lovely. i love chinese food.
im going to leave it here because im waffling on.....
oh erm, does anyone suffer from Braxton Hicks?? i have had them on/off since i was 28weeks. first load was at 2:30am and were painful (mainly at top of stomach). then i didnt have any pain from then, i just had the hard stomach. but then from 32weeks i was having "period" like pains low down in my pelvic area, my midwife said they were B/H but theyre completely different pains from the first ones at 28weeks.....so i was confused. my mum said the period pain was probably just baby getting engaged.....i think that sounds more right than what the midwife said. i stopped having those period ones around a week ago. but then last night i had those really sharp bad pains again in top of my stomach, working down and all over. i couldnt concentrate on anything other than the pains, i tried sitting at an angle and breathing deep....didnt help, i tried standing up.....didnt help, i even tried leaning against my stairs banister and rocking a little but even that didnt help. eventually they went, so i knew it was Braxton Hicks. but its doing my head in that im being told different things so i was wondering what you ladies thought......from experience. i know each pregnancy is different but surely someone should understand me. are those sharp pains the actual B/H or are the "period" pains B/H?? how are you supposed to know the freaking difference lol.
sorry for long post. im off now.
