Beach Bumps - July Rainbows

[merristems]

Oh bd try not to worry yourself, im sure they wont keep you hanging on for too long because they wont want to do an emergancy csection either, it costs them too much! With your previous babies did you go i to spontaneous labour early? I know it probably doesnt make a difference as all babys are different but it may give you an idea of when bubs will go, having said that maybe breech babies last longer becase there is less pushi g into pelvis to trigger labour? Idk!

No I didn't go early with my two, that being said my youngest is 11 so I'm that much older and also hehas a different dad... when I do llabour however I labour pretty quickly I'm sure it will be fine, just typical parl anxieties raising their ugly heads xx

Oh merri so glad your bubs has turned! Clever baby!
Bd hope yor appointment goes well today and hope u don't have to wait too long for your section! That's the same reason I was stressing out about my mw situation- that she wasn't gonna even refer me to check position via scan till after 37weeks freaked me out as I'm terrified of him not being in right position and me going into labour!
That being said I woke up yesterday with my bump going mental - very uncomfortable and loads of movement. And when hubs came in he said my bump looked different - lower. The lump that was under my left rib (his head!) isn't there now, and I have loads of pressure in my pelvis... Sooooooo maybe, here's hoping, he's turned!!! Fingers crossed!! Xxx

 

[merristems]

Ooooh i hope youre right dolly that does sound promissing clever baby. Is the breathing an y easier too?

 

[BeautifulD]

Eeeee fingers crossed lo has turned! Xxx

Well mw says all is well bp fine. No animeia no protien in wee! And baby is measuring bang on the 50th centile line. She say skippy is head down with spine up my front, no wonder my pelvis is so tender!

Yay that's all good!

BD - GL at hozzy I hope they don't make you wait too long. I'd definitely mention how anxious it makes you feel the closer to the due date it gets.

Hope he's turned Dolly!

Anyone else been feeling a bit more 'damp' down there?

[merristems]

Lol fj! Yes i have i need to wear panty liners now! Hoping its a temporary discomfort though!

 

[flapjack10]

Oh good! When I wake up, I have split second where I think it's my waters have gone! Been getting a bit more discharge too! Come on babies!

Eeeee fingers crossed lo has turned! Xxx

BD, definitely express your concerns to the doctor. I'm sure they will assuage your fears

I've had pretty sore period pains which have kept me up all night. I'm so tired!

 

[merristems]

Oooer giy could be the start of things happening in there??

 

[girlinyork]

No idea. It could be the fact she is so far engaged making me sore and uncomfortable. I'm keeping an eye on it It's OH's birthday today so would be nice for her to be his birthday buddy but unlikely

 

[A1983]

Ohh how exciting giy!! They said at my nct group last week that period type pains can come and go...it's when they are combined with contractions which are regular and start getting closer together...coupled with back ache for some. But who knows-we've not done this before! Well..some of us have ;-)

Euurrgghh raspberry LT is gross! Guzzling it down and feeling a tad sick afterwards-but if it helps ill try anything! And briefly on the perennial massage as im sure some prob want to skip that-owww! I got oh to try last night and it wasn't what he was doing-its just my lady parts are SO sore-like ridiculously sore-inside. He only inserted the tip of his finger (sorry if tmi) and it felt like a burn and as if he had sand on it-I had to stop after 5 seconds and was sore for hours afterwards!? I know sex is a no-no as that started hurting for us back in second tri-but a finger tip now?! I had a look in mirror and im very purple down there with some bulgy veins on exterior lips..and I have been feeling very heavy and achy in that area for weeks and weeks really. I've read its normal but not all pregnant women get it..and it goes after birth. Any of you had similar? Will tell mw when I see her next week. It did frighten me though as ill have to be examined in labour as well as give birth...yet a finger tip had me howling in pain :-/

Oooof! I hope they mean something's happening!

I can't face another RLT - I don't 't find the taste that bad I'm just lazy and I'd rather have a Jaffa cake...

I found the massage difficult! My downstairs department hurts too, not as bad as you're describing, but it's definitely uncomfortable. Again, I'm lazy, but I know I should do it to help prevent tearing eeep. I haven't had sex since the second tri either. Poor hubby, it's because I'm so bloody lazy! Need to try to do it before cheekyface gets here!

[mackjess]

we haven't bd'd much either. maybe twice during 3rd tri. we had to use lube and even then I was too sore and didn't enjoy it. the terrible thing is my hormones are making me WANT to, but it's not good when I try. poor dh.

I just got some earth mama third tri tea yesterday and going to try out out today. I thought I'd wait till my scan Friday before I do the massage. no point if he hasn't turned yet!

 

[A1983]

Ha ha yes a jaffa cake is much tastier!! And lol re the pain-I do make it sound like ive been sewn up then ripped apart again-ouchy!!

Well if any of you do try the massage let me know how it goes! I really would love to dtd-but just CAN'T! x

 

[girlinyork]

Ouchies, cramps are definitely in my back too. I'll call my midwife in a bit I think

 

[Dollybird]

I'm sore down there too! And haven't bd'd since second tri either- mainly cause I spotting a couple of times so it really put me off. Missing it I have to admit.. Although we're intimate in other ways but its not the same!! I really wanna try the rlt but it says you shouldn't if you have a family history of breast or ovaries cancer.. Which I do.. Does anyone know why this is? I might ask and my next mw appointment.
Been doing a bit of retail therapy today- bought stuff for baby's hospital bag and some super cute sleep suits from next. Feeling a bit low today.. And annoyed at hubby too. He seems to think cause I'm off work that I should be doing everything (cook/clean/iron/walk dog) and the cheeky git even made me a list of things to be done for baby coming (cleaning etc). I wouldn't mind so much but he doesn't even appreciate what I do or notice it.. He's pretty stressed with work just now so I'm trying not to take it personally he's not normally like tht, but I just feel.. Well undervalued. Plus he keeps going on about how I'm off work till February.. Erm there's a reason for that!! I just want him to come in one day and comment on how clean the place is, or offer to walk the dog, or being me flowers, or rub my feet.. Not big things really!
Argh men!! I'm such a moan ain't I?
Oh giy I'm super excited for u!
Hope this is it for you I know how uncomfy you've been.. Keep us updated! Xxx

I'm fed up... didn't get the news I wanted. Baby is still breech which I knew but yet I have to have ANOTHER scan next week
