[merristems]

Oh great weights Amjon!! Well done mamma hope bf gets easier xxxx
Lk hope little Taylor is doing well, poor boobs it must be a shock to them! At my antinatal they said you shouldn' t get pain if baby latches correctly and at right hight! Not sure i believe that! my boobs are sensitive at the best of times!

Aw lvn congrats on getting Maddox home today that's lovely news! Hope breast feeding gets easier for you ladies!
Bd glad things are getting sorted out for u!
Amjon lovely names and brilliant weights!
Hope everyone else is well!
I'm ok although my tummy very tender today- not too sure why, but a bit worried as the pain is up high under my ribs and its not easing. Have doctor appointment this afternoon (conjunctivitis) so might ask him to check me over.. Do you think he'll do that with the problem being unrelated to my eye??
Anyways the babyshower yesterday was amazing! Never got home till 10pm last night. We had a big BBQ, loads of games, weather was fab, and it was brill catching up with my workmates- I'm missing them loads. Plus I got loads of lovely gifts! Feel very spoilt. Gonnna sit and make lists for thankyou cards today before I forget who gave what. And I still have my family/close friends babyshower to look forwrd to on Sunday! Excited! Xxx

Monro - I hate dreams like that

MJ - glad everything feels ok with bump, it's best to be vigilant though

BD- I'm still so annoyed about how you've been treated, at least the RMC are on your side!

Dolly - how was the baby shower?

Yep I think you have it on the money there fj! Who's next I wonder....

Amjon wow what fantastic weights, I love their names too

 

[flapjack10]

I don't think it'll be me! Le sigh xxx

 

[BeautifulD]

Or me lol xxx

 

[Dollybird]

Wel I think you might be right bd.. The pain is were his head was at my last check and if I press there there's a big hard lump (?head) so maybe just that. Maybe I should get my birth ball out for a bit see if that helps? Xxx

 

[Dollybird]

Hmm think it maybe was his head! Just spent 20 mins leaning over the birthing ball and the pain seems to have eased a lot. Will still ask doc later, may as well, but don't feel so worried now xxx

 

[merristems]

Looks right fj! I love seeing there names and weights down
I made beetroot a d chocolate brownies omg i want to eat them all!!
1 more day of work then maternity leave hurrah!

 

[mackjess]

my ribs get a little sore too dolly, and my naughty boy is still breech.

fj, good work on the dates. I can't wait to find out who is next.

bd, thought about how rude your consultant was about you not trying ecv and got mad again! hope you hear back from them today.

lk, just had my breastfeeding class last night and they said nipple soreness can happen early on due to all the hormone changes, but if they are still painful and sensitive after day 4 or 5 to ring your doctor. hope you're feeling more comfortable now.

afm, I was pretty pleased with myself for realizing baby was transverse yesterday. 1- it explained me feeling less movement as that would be more crowded. 2-being sideways is halfway to being turned. 3- it explained why my side hurt cause it was where I could feel his head. so last night after I got home i feel more movement than I had in a few days. I immediately hopped on the ball and did bounces and rotations in case he was trying to go head down. got up after an hour, and he was back to his wiggly self, kicking me in the pelvis and I feel his head back under my ribs.

my appt isn't till late this afternoon. i figure I will sit on the ball more today since I'm working from home and see what happens. if he's breech today, I will get my surgery scheduled. I'm a little more hopeful that he could turn in the next few days though. he's never been sideways before so I think he was trying, and if he had room to do that he might have room to make it. I just wish dh was here for my appt later.

 

[BeautifulD]

Dolly - Yeah I would say its his head then.... These naughty boys! just goes to show men are trouble from the word go

Mj I really really hope he turns for you. My little dude was having a crazy time in there on monday I think it was and I could feel his head in my side, I got a little hopeful but after another few crazy movements he was back to usual position. Frustrating! I really don't think my lo can turn, apparently (according to the bitch registrar) he's a big baby so that would explain why (if he even is a big baby!) I don't understand how he can be huge as she was trying to suggest as I'm carrying smaller than I was with either of my girls and they were 6lbers.... or maybe he just likes it where he is... Closer to my heart

I really hope he turns for you, for both of you and they stop being stubborn

Afm.... I think I have a sty coming, my eye is so damn sore! Cor all I seem to do is moan lately, sorry ladies!

 

[flapjack10]

Glad that all seems ok, Dolly. Let us know what doc says.

Mmm beet root and chocolate - sounds amazing! Yay for mat leave!

MJ - At least he tried - bless him! All these Breechy boys!

BD - sorry about the sty! They are so sore! You moan away my love! I feel like all I do is moan to my OH recently. He must be sick of me, except I promised him I would attempt to DTD tonight! He joked that all I wanted him for was to put a baby in me and then try to get it out! It's so not true! I said, who knows what happens during birth or when I'll be able to do it again. So I wanna do it now while we have the chance!

Hi ladies, see my consultant today and even though consultant wanted me to have c-section at 38 weeks, they are fully booked so having her on the 17th of July, so 39 weeks exactly. My kidneys are not functioning properly and have alot of blood in my wee, so waiting now for an emergency scan on them, so painful but I keep thinking just 3 weeks and 5 days left, I hope it goes quick, how is everyone else doing xx

 

[flapjack10]

Eeek Kelly. I hope the time passes quickly or a slot opens up earlier! Sounds painful

xxx

 

[BeautifulD]

Bahaha oh I still have a problem getting dh to get in the mood... he really doesn't like pregnant loving. I won't lie, I REALLY can't wait to get our sex life back!

Ewww beetroot and chocolate sounds rough! Lol.

Ugh I've just been stung by a bee in my foot putting the washing out, the pain! I haven't been stung since I was a kid... you forget the pain those little buggers cause. Needless to say it got the full forceof my foot on its head once I realised

Not long kelly

 

[merristems]

Ouch kelly i hope they sort you out quickly poor kidneys glad you have a date now xxx

Bd that sucks about the bee, i guess the on ly conselation is the die once they have stung you!

I keep thinking yeah tonight we will do the deed but then my head hits the pillow! Beetroot and chocolate is flippin Awesome! Plus you can feel self rightious about it being one of your 5a day! last day of work tomorrow woooooowhoooooooo!

 

[mackjess]

BD, you're hurting from eye to foot! Girl, take it easy today.

FJ, I have been a moan lately too. I told DH he was probably glad to be out of town for a week, but he said he didn't want to leave me. He's texted and called more than ever to check on me a lot so I believe him. Cute fella, but I wish he was here to carry my laundry up! I did it, but keep getting dressed downstairs cause I didn't carry up more than a basket of my underthings.

6/19 here.

 

[Dollybird]

Well just back from docs! Got some eczema around my eye bizarrely so been started on cream for that. Said to him about the pain. He felt my tummy and confirmed bubs still breech but wasn't sure about what was causing the pain. He sai if it continues or gets worse he wants me to contact the maternity unit as its not his area of expertise. So not a whole lot use really! Gonna see how I go- pain has eased a lot but I'm still tender so guess ill wait it out but I'm a bit paranoid now so if it doesn't go completely then I will be contacting the hospital definitely! Xxx
