Beach Bumps - July Rainbows

Get those Venus razor blades with built in gel. I wad shaving blind with those two days before elodie was born and not a single nick or sore patch. I'd get Chris to check my handy work and the blades were so good he would get any bits I missed without incident :) x
 
I'm feeling all inspired now.. Just tweezed my eyebrows and think I might now tidy bikini line and maybe even pop on a bit fake tan for good measure! I feel surprisingly energetic this morning.. Cleaning, washing clothes etc.. It won't last! Hahaxxx
 
Wish i had some get up a d go! I have do e our laundary today, plus washed my fabric i have to make a moby wrap! But mostly i sat in garden eating biscuits!
 
Mmmm biscuits....

Yes I normally have a crazy 2 hour nesting period after breakfast-cleaning, washing, list making...then I exhuast myself and eat for the rest of the day! Just been sick tho :-( and bit of loose tum. Feeling a little better but nausea coming and going. Just want to make it to nct tomorrow eve as were having the hospital tour then all going for an Indian afterwards! Will stay in bed today x
 
I worked from home yesterday, and literally stayed in bed all day with my laptop cause my feet are so swollen. =(

I use the Venus razor as well, and I bought a cheap wet dry electric razor off amazon to get a close trim on the bits. used it before my last app since she was checking my cervix, and it wasn't too bad. my skin is too sensitive for even my lovely Venus razor in that area right now.

should get my epo in the mail today, and got some oil last night to start the massage. I actually have to go into the office today so we will see how much energy I have for that tonight.
 
I know I don't have much prego time left, but I'm seriously considering buying some compression socks for my feet/ ankles. not even out of bed yet and they hurt. has anyone tried them?
 
Ouch jess, never tried them but im sure they would help. When mine were bad the otherday i put feet up on pillow an lay on back for a bit, also did some yoga stretches which helped
 
I laid back all day yesterday with my feet up on pillows, and my laptop propped up like pillows like a desk and more pillows for my arms like armrests. My dog was in heaven snuggling up with me! lol

I had a pair of tall athletic stretchy socks that I wear when running for my shins, so I wore those around this am while I was getting ready. It seemed to help, but they aren't quite long enough. I might try a pair of knee-high ones since they helped. It's in the upper 90s and super humid, so I took them off to wear my flippy floppies, but I think if I wear the socks around the house I think they'll help. I'm just going to get the ones they sell for diabetes and stuff at the pharmacy. They are much cheaper than the maternity compression socks.

I wish my hubs didn't hate feet so much. Got a mani/pedi yesterday and it was AMAZING and the slimmest my feet have felt in awhile. I can't afford to get those every day or I would! :haha:
 
I am two weeks from my due date, however, unlike some of you ladies who are dealing with swollen feet, mine aren't swollen but are painfully sore. Sometimes it hurts just to walk. Anyone have that happen to them and know why??
 
Mine were like that before I got to the swelling problems I've had the last week or so. I'd roll them around on a tennis ball or something. I also had to buy a gel thing to put in the bottom of my shower cause standing on the hard surface was so painful. Do yours feel more like pins and needles? Happened to already own have a spiky massage roller thing that helped get the circulation going in my feet/ankles to help that pain. Even a hair brush felt good.
 
Hi thero, sorry but not had that problem...yet! What a weird symptom though. Hope they get better xxx
 
So the immac/veet was a disaster ladies! I couldn't really see what I was doing (or reach for that matter) and now it appears I have bald patches with the odd "tuft" here and there. If I go into labour anytime soon the midwives are gonna get a right laugh! Xxx
 
I was keeping up with the shaving, I did it blind and it was scary...then I thought I wouldn't risk again until I was closer to due date so gave up..... Then I gave birth.. Typical !!!! I did tell the MW sorry and I didn't have time to shave and she laughed, but I'm the kind of person who washes my hair before going to the hair dressers !!!

I'm starting to get over the boob pain finally, but have slight flu symptoms so I'm a little worried its a infection, MW over tomorrow so will mention it to her, it could be just lack of sleep.

We registered his birth today, he is now official and filled out the CB form.

Hope to see another baby announcement soon on here xx

Sorry dolly.... :rofl: :rofl:
I also missed out a great big line of hair when I attempted to do my legs*myself a few weeks back.

I told hubby last night that he has a few maintenance jobs to do for me at the weekend.... I'm so lucky really he said no problem without even a roll of the eyes lol.

Not sure about foot pain, I have a very high instep and have noticed that my feet have flattened with thw extra weight which causes me some pain. Could be that?
