Great news Isobelle is on track I had the same with Chloe she was always on the 5th centile. Ad she was my breech baby too!!!!!

I too feel really
Uncomfortable today. Some serious cramps
Going on today. Belly going hard with it too and it almost feels like I'm going to poo myself LOL!!!!!!! On a good note. Slept all night last night for the first time
In ages! Yet I feel dead beat today ?!?!?!?! Confused.com!!

On I was engaged with Connor or about 5 weeks!!!!! Chloe (my bReece baby) a few days and Katie was engaged for a couple of weeks so a real mix so actually probably isn't any help :/

They don't measure my bump nicola but she is measuring between 32 and 33 weeks depending which bits you're looking at. XxX

Hi ladies glad everyone is well!

I have been in hospital this week with suspected appendicitis luckily it turned out ok! Big relief!

Baby is now head down but not engaged and all good here.

Am trying to get hospital bag ready even though I want a home birth still need to pack just in case but all the washing and organising is taking forever!

I keep getting loads of hot flushes does anyone else? I am also quite glad the weather isn't so good surprisingly cause I don't wanna buy any maternity stuff just for a few weeks!

 

[dt1234565]

Ps. Wtf is a honeydew???!

 

[moggi]

its a melon lol. Glad you're ok now I'm in so much pain with stitch at the moment, don't know what to do with myself, come on here to try and take my mind off it. Had no sleep agin last night and feel i'm like im losing my mind. My cervix is so sore, how can that be? Back is in pieces, i can't cope with this for the next 5-6 weeks. Sorry for the moaning. Why wont this damn stitch go away?! XxX

 

[meganOUFC]

Hot Flushes here too! Yesterday was horrendous! I'm very pleased there's no hot weather!

I don't know how I'm going to cope the next 5 weeks either! I too have a very sore cervix. I out that down to pressure. Braxton hicks are getting worse and wOrse every day!
Is anyone else sick of people saying OMG how long left!!!!! You look like you're going to pop!!!


Never mind ladies. Not long now, then we will have our bellies back x

 

[moggi]

oh yes forgot the hot flushes too. Constantly out of breath even when sitting down, ridiculous! I'm pregnant not ill so why do i feel so bad?! Just goes to show what a difference of 15 years between kids makes! Nobody asks me how long i've got left as my bump is so tiny, since she dropped a bit i only look about 6 months if that lol.XxX

Lucky you!!! I look like an elephant!!!!!
I know right! We're pregnant not ill so why do I feel like I'm terminally Ill

I'll posts a bump picture in a mo!!!! Oh my!!!!

 

[minidancer]

Sorry to hear you were in hospital Debbie, hope you are feeling better

Rose I used to get a stitch pain earlier in my pregnancy, it was so sore and annoying! Hope you feel better soon

Megan I am getting fed up of that question too, which is usually followed by a look of disbelief when I say I still have another 4 weeks to go!! It's like they think I am lying or I don't know what I am talking about!! So annoying!!

I have been bouncing on my ball all afternoon and my pelvis is so sore now, I am hoping that means he is starting to move down further. From next Wednesday I will be on a full blown baby out mission!! Already have chillies in for a hot curry, a fresh pineapple and I told hubby that even though he gets freaked out DTD, if it comes to it and I am desperate he will be doing it. He helped start this so he can help finish it

 

[minidancer]

OMG after posting that I just had a sudden shock realisation that we are actually at the point of talking about these babies arriving!! Remember when we were only 4 weeks pregnant and worrying about everything, can't believe where the time has gone and in a couple of weeks some of us might be telling our birth stories!!!

 

[moggi]

I know i still feel like its an eternity till i'm due but its not that far away is it? She is being so active at the moment, its painful. You can see arms and legs sticking out all over the place and it scared marks 8 yr old daughter lol. There is not enough room for all this movement and she keeps hitting my cervix, bladdereven felt her thumping up my bum! I really think she wants out! XxX

 

[minidancer]

No it's not far away at all, if you think you are full term in just over a week!! Oh I know what you mean, seriously running out of room now and finding it hard to catch a breath!

I went and weighed myself today and I have put on 3 fecking stone!! Baby puts on half a pound a week so I wonder how much I will have put on by the end! Has anyone else weighed themselves? Everywhere I look says that is far too much to have put on and I has nothing to compare it to as I never weighed myself at all last pregnancy! Kind of wish I hadn't checked now.

 

[moggi]

Last time i weighed myself i'd put on about 2.5 stone but that was a few weeks ago now, dread to think what i am now. I know i've got a load of fluid retentionbecause it appeared as soon as i found out i was pregnant. She keeps sending those shooting pains downwards,feels like its her head. Thinking that she'll do it one time too many and pop the waters, hopefully not for another week and a bit tho lol. Although if my membranes are anything li,e they were last time the midwife had to pop them with a pair of scissors they were mega strong and emma was almost crowning with them completely intact. XxX

 

[meganOUFC]

I'm told that's good luck!!!
That made me laugh about baby out mission hahahahahahahahahahaha but actually there is truth in the sex thing because Apparentley the seman has a chemical/substance in it that is also present in pesserie they use to ripen your cervix. Hence why midwife recommend a bit of nookie. To soften your cervix.


And wow...... It will be just a few weeks until we tell our stories. Imagine if we did a conference call. Our phone call would last hours!!!!!!!!!

New thing now. Nose bleeds!! I've had 3-4 this week already and a mega one today!!! Should I get it checked out??

[minidancer]

Rose I think I have fluid retention too, in the last couple of weeks I have noticed my face has filled out and my shoes and rings are much tighter. That happened last time, and it disappeared really quickly after baby arrived, even the midwife commented on the difference on the size of my face about a week after baby arrived I hope it is the same this time!

Bloody hell sound like you have membranes of steel!! I have heard too that it is good luck for baby to be born in their membranes.

Megan yeah the midwife was telling me that too, I wonder if it does actually work. I wouldn't worry too much about the nose bleeds. I used to get them last time and was told it is just the increase in blood volume. It is the same reason for bleeding gums, which I have bad, when I brush my teeth my mouth pours with blood-yuck yuck yuck!!!!

Leanne not long now and you can out your feet up and relax-woohoo!! Haha you should have said that you weren't pregnant and seen her reaction. I did that once but felt a bit guilty afterwards with the look of total horror on the woman's face That is brilliant that you have been able to maintain your weight, although not so good that you're still being sick. That will all be a distant memory in a few weeks.

Soon we will be coming onto the thread and seeing this is it posts-so exciting!!

 

[dt1234565]

Yea just a few weeks left, soon it's May and our due month!

The next few weeks may go quite slow waiting for baby to pop out but once they are here boy does it go quick!!!!

We dtd last night for the first time in weeks, DH seemed miles away from me cause of the bump!

I have a nose bleed nearly every morning it's just normal, dunno what the explanation is though as I've never looked it up.

My bumps also fairly small I think but then maybe it's not! I have only put on a stone on so far which I am pleased about, I think it's cause my dinners are quite small, I am never over hungry in the evening.

I have finished all the baby washing so everything's ready, I just need to get some newborn hats.

I picked up the new Moses basket and crib mattresses from the post office this week, chuffed as they were free! Where I have been away from home so much lately I never noticed the card from royal mail, so I got a refund for them, then found the card 2 weeks after it was delivered and picked em up!!!!! Lovely!

[meganOUFC]

Oh we all love a freeby!

 

[dt1234565]

I know! I just put the £40 towards a babybjorn babysitter! Hope they're as good as the reviews say they are! I'd never splash out the £100 on one but as I've only paid the eBay price I guess it's a bargain!!!


Babies due in December threads are starting!!!! Seems a long way away, our little ones will be 6 months old by then!!!

 

[moggi]

I know i can't believe the December threads have started already! Also can't believe its a month today till shes due! Really feel crap at the moment, got so much gunk coming out of me and hospital just make you feel like an idiot if you ring them for advice. Really wish there was somewhere else I could have booked in at Do you think it could be the group b strepcausing all this discharge and its actually nothing to do with plugs? There is that much now that i'm wearing a proper pad not just a liner. Feel so yucky and dirty all the time. Enough about me anyway, how is everyone else? XxX
