Yeah I don't like that bit. I can feel so tender after an appt.

Well dh turned out to be more productive than I thought. He got up and cleaned the car and is now currently painting the landing. I on the other hand mangaged to put the lamb on to roast and made a couple of burp cloths and I'm done! :(
I'll try and be better tomorrow ;)
 
I went two days over with faith

My oh is convinced il go a little bit early this time but I don't know ...

Had the shower, was very good and got some nice gifts (mostly clothes)

Does anyone know if the midwifes will kick up a fuss if your anemic a lot or anything ... At my last app I had iron stores of 11 when the range started at 19 or something and I haven't took anything for it, keep forgetting! ...

You need to take the iron tablets if you have been prescribed them because being anemic when in labor can cause more bleeding, Heavier and more risk of heamorage (spelt wrong lol)
I have been anemic every pregnancy, I have made sure I have took all my iron tablets this time as low iron levels will mean I have to go into hospital so I need to get them up. x
 
I am constantly turning over too in the the night :/ I just want it to stop but think it's going to carry on till I have her now, I get the pains in bump when they feel position also, it seems to me they push really hard! Midwife on Wednesday so going to ask her about my hips see if she has any tips for me x
 
CLH yeah, take the iron tablets. I'm on iron tablets too and it's safer for during labour.

Char I'm seeing the midwife today. They'll probably give you the standard advise as in put soft pillows or blanket under you and a pillow or blanket between your knees. I've got both and it still hurts so I think it's one of those that'll stay with us till the end :(

Yeah this is what I thought :/ I have pillow as well but doing nothing for me :(
 
sorry about your hip pain char :hugs:
when I was flipping about last night it felt like I ripped something in there ... hope it was nothing!

omg my shower went incredibly. my mom, mil and sil did such a great job. I can't believe how generous all my family and friends were to us :')
i'm not sure we'll need to buy anything else, but if we do we also got a huge amount of gift cards for babies r us. still in shock!!
 
Awwwww brilliant babyface! Glad to hear you had a great day :)

Char I asked my physio about the hip pain and she said this: it's your body telling you you need to roll over to the other side.....
Errrrrr yeah, I thought so but what can I do to make it better???? Not a very helpful answer hahahahaha

We're nearly at 90% complete by the way! Mad!!!!!!
 
I'm also potty training Marielle :( Any tips or ideas are welcome! She's just walking around without a nappy at the moment

I watched a baby programme about potty training where they said the trick was to make it as fun as possible so they suggested letting the child choose her big girl pants and if you've got a regular style potty to buy some pretty stickers and every time she goes she gets to choose a sticker to decorate it. That's all I got :)

My iron was 11 as well and the midwife wasn't bothered at all. Dh asked about iron tablets and she said only if you don't eat healthily. She's never mentioned anything about bleeding in labour. I'll ask again when I see her at 36 wks as I've had more blood taken.

So glad your showers went well girls. Wish I had one? Super jealous! ;)
 
Thanks zfbaby! She's got a regular potty and its covered in Peppa pig stickers and she has a potty that sings and plays music whilst she sits on it. See how things will go! Hahahaa
 
I can't offer any advice pebbie, DS1 first asked to use a potty (not in words) at 6 months old and then just picked when he did and didn't want to use it until he was fully out of nappies on a night by 2. I am slightly dreading having to actually train DS2 in the future. I hope it goes well though.

I am glad the showers so far have gone well.

DS2 has has moved over the past few days. I have no idea if he is breach or not now but he is lower and I am in a lot less pain now. Although I now have rib flare on the left side as well as the right. We will be starting to buy baby things in a week or two I think, we was waiting until my dissertation was in which will be in a few days.
 
Second the hip pain!

Is anyone else getting booted at the side? I haven't had anything up by the ribs at all. It's like bubs is pushing out the sides.

I was disappointed about the crib but found a gorgeous one with bedding for £80 anyway and we can keep it for next bubba.

I think I need to relinquish control of the shower and let my friends plan it!

Its not anemia untill 10.5 or 10.8 one of them so at the moment you are ok. I imagine she wont say anything until it drops below this.
 
Spoke with my sister this morning and my baby shower is all arranged for the 29th April. Can't wait now 3 weeks today x

Is she interested in using the normal toilet? My little girl didn't like the potty she wanted to use the big one (as she would say) She was so good and was nappy free with in a few days 2 weeks after her 2nd bday. Where as my son was still in nappys till a month after his 3rd! He was well lazy x
 
O/h picked these up today after work too cute :) Hope the weathers nice when she makes an appearance x
