Nik (Mercy) I too am swollen but do you know what F**k EM! You will have a lovely bubba in your arms in a couple weeks and they will still be stuck with smarmy comments in their throats - may a big berry eating birdie poop on them from height on your behalf and may they be wearing a pale colour thats difficult to clean the stain off or even worse if theyre very vain may it poop in their hair!
Keep the rings off and for the feet cold water does help a bit as does putting them up but TBH nothing makes it go away it just moves
for the hands please keep your rings off, I tried putting one back on and it got stuck, felt wrong with no wedding ring but ended up at local jewellers with hands in iced water whilst they removed it
Fortunately they are lovely in there as theyre the only place in town you can get batteries to fit Mogsters favourite plane! Try runining hands in warm water in the morning if theyre stiff - discovered it yesterday after weeks of agony and it gets them moving but they will still fel like you have ski gloves a size to small on or those funny chem suit gloves on - bet MrB has a pair...? OH put his on to eat dinner one night to make me laugh, wish Id known he was gonna do it as would have made spaghetti or something harder to eat!
Big
to all it cant be too much longer now especially if the October babies are starting to come!

ok... quick update while my bath is running....
olly arrived ! saturday bout 3 he got here... i wasnt ready, had jst stepped out the bath and answered the door looking a wreck i felt so uncomfortable.... all fat n preggers i wanted to look my 'best' but it just didnt happen.....
he didnt really acknowledge that i was pregnant just sort of wandered round the house mumbling bout work n his mum n dad n whatever he was doing on the plane n stuff.... i felt so awkward, like he didnt wanna look at me
that was saturday, he didnt kiss me or anything... didnt hug me or touch me or try to ! it was really getting me down tbh.... made me feel horrible. like it must be coz of the girls he sees all the time over there, that he came back to this big fat preggers girl with no make up on lol in sum ratty old dressing gown n he just thought 'nah'........... x
well last night he said he felt really uncomfortable round me.. and i felt horrible !! i didnt know what to say i was like, what dya mean, what did i do.......
he said nothing... he said he thought id gone off him... because i didnt look happy to see him saturday ! but course i felt uncomfortable myself, he said we'd been apart for so long he felt like we needed to be friends again n i cried.... said id been his friend all year didnt wanna be his friend anymore
n he said why dont u ever kiss me then u idiot....... were both as shy n stubborn as each other... waiting for each other to make the first move....... was so nice when he put his arms round me finally !!!!!!!!! even got to have an early night **wink wink** babys still where he left her tho lol didnt kick start anything......
but god do i feel so much better !! so hopefully things will be better now !! we can both relax more..... and try abit harder to no be shy........ its silly isnt it eh x

Wow, i don't come on for one day and look at the action i miss out on!?!?
Jetters so pleased for you hun. Big congratulations! And there was you thinking you would be one of the last to give birth.... Wonderful news xxx
So yesterday me and Mart cleaned like a biatch! Mostly Mart but giving orders was hard work too. Everything is so clean and tidy now. It's wonderful. I feel at ease now.
Can't get rid of these horrid pains though. They are really starting to hurt, back has given out so don't know what's up with that. Am seeing mw this afternoon so i'm hoping he can shed a little light on the subject.
As for me i'm treating myself to getting my hair washed at the salon this morning then in for a leg wax before mw. Trying to get myself looking abit decent just incase they tell me i'm in this week. I really hope they do!
Love to everyone

YEY for treats and for feeling all clean and tidy! and BOOO to pain! hope you're feeling better soon!
Congrats again to yas, its so exciting now that our little ones are arriving x x
WELL.... AFM. Last nigth I was sat with my usual aches and niggles and just as Mat was cooking the little sausage rolls to cheer me up lol, I was struck with the MOST HORRENDOUS pains in my upper chest and accross my back! I didnt think it was anything to do with bump, but it was so bad that it made me collapse on the bathroom floor! then i started vomitting like crazy! Mat tried to run me a bath and I just couldnt find a comfy position, I tried for a hour or two, then I had tightenings (which I think were more related to the stress than "proper£ contractions), So mat rang the labour ward and they told me i had to go straight in!
SO... Poor Riley gets dragged out of bed at 2am and (still in his little duvet) put in the car and we went off! I told Mat to leave me there so Riley could get back home to bed but I was sobbing when i was left on my own!
They seemed quite worried about me at first, found all sorts of protein, keytones,leucosites and nitrates in my urin, so there is rob an infection "somewhere".
The pain started to ease after I had been sick maybe 8-10 more times! and they put me on the monitor.
I had an internal and I am starting to dialate but she didnt record exactly "how" much! So I am guessing its was only VERY slightly! Baby's head was 3/5's palpable so not fully there yet!
I had tonnes of discharge so she took a swab, and there was bleeding around my cervix!
Baby seemd happy on the monitor, but the doctor was also concerned by the level of fluid in the iterus, she kept asking was i "sure" I hadnt had my water break or leak? I dont think I have!
Eventually after a few hours of being kept an eye on they let me come home! and I was so relieved to get back into bed and finally sleep! The pain has almost gone now which is crazy! She said she thinks it must have been some sort of tummy or gastro intestinal bug that started things in the first place (hence all the vomitting), but just to take it easy and that she thinks bubs is heading for freedom in the near future lol!
I feel like a Zombie today from lack of sleep. But Riley slept in until 10am, and he has nursery for 3 hours this afternoon so I am heading back to bed then!
Sorry for waffling on, I just had so much to fill u in on x x
Hugs
Nikki,
