Hello!
It's weird thinking we'll all be giving birth in the next few weeks. I said to my hubby two days ago: next month there'll be 4 of us! MAD!!!
Hubby is in France for work this week and I think Marielle is not liking it! She's been so cheeky. So I dropped her off at nursery this afternoon and then went out to get myself a brand new big changing bag! Thought I'd deserved it hahahaha. But then ended up buying Marielle some new Clarks Doodle shoes. I just can't help myself lol :)
 
first pic 30 weeks and 2 days
second pic 32 week 3 days ...

the first pic im carrying so much lower.... so weird to see how my bump has completly changed shape
 
CHL I thought your two pics were the other way around at first! Lovely bump though, very jealous!

I should think I'll be heading up the rear with Omi in terms of birth stories on here, as im due right at the end of May too. Having said that, Ive had the cot out and the nursery done for ages LOL. First time parents and all that :D Still lots to get though.

I had my midwife appointment yesterday, she's leaving and someone new is starting in May, so until then its a temp :( Just managed to get signed up for my anti natal class though, and also for a breast feeding class. Midwife said Little Duck is head down so thats good, I hope he stays that way!
Has anyone else bought a birthing ball to bounce on? I've just bought one, think it might come in handy during labour too.
 
CLH looks like bubs has moved head down and the bum is up higher now? When are you seeing the midwife again? Would be interesting to see what position baby is in.

Ducky are you doing a hospital tour as well? It's good to see everything before.
I've got a fitness ball which is basically the same but it's in the loft. I'll get hubby to take it down when he goes up to put the winter clothes away :)

I think it looks so weird, how different, one bump is much lower...

Well i had a 3D scan at 30 weeks and 5 days something (Again, as they made a mistake on the DVD of my prev one) and i was confirmed head down.... so head was defo down in the first pic...

I have a funny feeling he’s now breach and it’s his head that’s made my bump so high... I feel a lot of movement going side to side but its like a solid ball (e.g. either head or butt!) and my guess is its the head now..!!

I have a birthing ball (Exercise ball) that I had from last time! I’m sure I seen it under the stairs the other week, might have to fish it out and sit on it! ...
My next app isn’t until 34 weeks! ...so not next week but the week after on the Monday or something so il see what the midwife says then! ..

Also excuse the first pic, these pics wasn’t meant to comer on here and i have no bottoms on! Haha ... but it’s so diff i wanted to share!
 
Yeah I can feel babies bum, but it's always sort of in the same place at the top if my bump. Hope he hasn't turned breech for you now!

Don't worry about the pic! It's how I would like to walk around all day long!!! Plus I didn't even notice as I was looking at your bump ;)
 
Great bum CLH, it looks really neat. I am already bigger than I was full term last time. I hope he isn't breach for you.

I can feel DS2's head at the top of my bump, I can sometimes see it too which really scares DH. It hurts so much, like the top of my bump is tearing apart but that happened with DS1 who was breach too and I was told then that can be normal.
 
CLH your bump pics are crazy, they look so different. Mine just gets bigger and bigger lol

Hope everyone is well today :)
My hips are really hurting at night time. I think it must be the weight when I lie on one side for to long :/
 
Anyone fancy getting a tape measure and measuring there bump the whole way around so we can compare size ? pictures are good but i thought if we can measure it then others can see if our bumps is smaller/Bigger etc! ...

Il do mine tonight when i get in ........... working at the moment

As a rule (so everyone is measuring in the same place and not further up/down) measure around and make sure the tape measure goes across your belly button! ...

I was 42cm on my due date with my first, Never measured with 2nd as she came early, I am already measuring 45cm now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just editing this as realised I put 42cm LOL! I wish :haha:
42 inches! was what I ment and 45 inches now x
 
Oh good idea. I will dig the tape measure out later.

I can feel bubs' head moving side to side above my pubic bone. I think I will give birth to a long legged giraffe. The distance from the butt sticking up and the feet pushing out is quite amazing.

Bubs is so much lower than DS.

DS turned 14 yesterday. We went to Taunton racecourse and had £20 each to bet on the horses. My dad made £150!! Just by choosing names he liked. Lol. Was a great day out.

What concert was it zf? I would happily take bubs to a music festival.
 
I wish I had a tape measure on me now! .. I want to measure myself!
I never done it with my daughter so I don’t have a clue to compare! ...

Do you think your get much bigger char?

About 3 people in my work have said im not that big for nearly 33 weeks ...
At my last app i was measuring 1 week ahead and people said i was big then :S
I wonder if I’m back to what it should be instead of a week ahead! ..

Anyone got anything else they NEED to buy? My OH said the other day about buying a new bedding set for the swinging crib in our room that he will be using for the forst 5-6 months, i told him there was no point as it wasn’t used loads and the one we had for our daughter was a lemon colour from mamas and papas (zeddy and parsnip range) so just to use it again, the blanket hardly got used as she kicked it off and i switched to a sleeping bag and i now have 3-4 of them in size 0-6m! And its only a bumper and bottom sheet ur payng for then! ..

Iv gone through some of the clothes that i got given second hand and i bought a bundle or two of ebay for like £5, i now have a massive bag full of stuff i dont want/like! Think il ebay it all!
 
Char it's a festival of sorts with punk and rock bands. The band he's most interested in is a band called rise against. Tbh I'd love to go but I really wouldn't want to take the baby they can get quite rough.

Clh- still need a couple of items for my hospital bag and we haven't actually bought a crib/cot yet as baby will be in our room in Moses basket for a bit. I've got a couple of "might be nice to have" items in mind too but nothing that won't save if I don't get around to it.
I'm feeling tired today thanks to dh snoring all night and he seems to have a touch of food poisoning which meant he was up and down all night too. :(
On the bright side the nice asda man came this morning with my monthly shop and even put it away for me :)

Char- you're not the biggest :( think I am, I'm 47inches at 34wks. I'm Putting it down to the fact that I wasn't exactly skinny to start with though so I'm not going to beat myself up too much
 
Is that standing up or lying down? Lying down I'm 33cm as that's what they measured in hospital. It'll be more if I stand up but can't find a tape measure! Lol
