End of May 2013 babies CONTINUED..

[Zfbaby]

I find resting helps as I get bh when I walk too much. And drinking lots helps too. I hope lo will stay put for you. Are you all packed now just in case?

Pebbie- I'd say we are getting closer to being ready. Dh is off for 4 days so he's going to help with the last bits I want done. Yay!

 

[CLH_X3]

Omi and pebble hope your Both ok!

Am I the only one that's never had a BH?!

My contractions were only period pain last time, no tightenings or back pain etc...

 

[pebbie1]

It's great to have stuff done. Gives me a lot more rest as I'm not stressing about things that need doing.
Omi, I hope baby stays inside a bit longer! My friend gave birth at 35 weeks the other day and baby was perfect! It was probably just ready to come out, but it didn't need any special care

 

[pebbie1]

CLH I had no braxton hicks at all last time! Just started with period pains as well.
This time round I've been having loads but more period pains as well.

 

[OmiOmen]

I had BH's with DS1 and this time but only mild whereas now they are fairly painful. The period type back pain was worse yesterday though so I am hoping it is something bought on by the change of position. The lower back pain was so bad yesterday I couldn't keep track of the BH's but today I think they are ever few hours. Resting or standing doesn't seem to make much difference other than the pressure I feel can sometimes change a bit when standing up.

I have a overnight bag packed just in case and DH got panicked and dug out the baby stuff we are re-using today and ordered everything else we need to come tomorrow.

 

[Zfbaby]

I'm not the only ftm on here am I? I've had bh throughout from around 16wks. It feels like baby suddenly fills up my entire stomach and is pushing really hard everywhere and they can really hurt then my tummy goes soft again. They suck, if this is what labour is like then I already know I won't like it
Glad you're all sorted omni. I just have a couple more buys to get then my bags are done and will go in the car.

 

[babyface15]

Hope your babies stay cooking for a little while longer ladies.
I'm a ftm too
I had a few bhs (tightening sensation) at around 25 weeks and then period pains a few times but nothing major really

 

[charbaby]

Omi and pebble hope your Both ok!

Am I the only one that's never had a BH?!

My contractions were only period pain last time, no tightenings or back pain etc...

Nope I've never had them neither and this is my 3rd baby so thought I might this time. Glad I haven't tho as I would prob think they were real

 

[charbaby]

Only 13% to go now! 5 weeks and 2 days seems like nothing! I really can't wait to see what my baby looks like! I keep thinking I will have her early but maybe that's just wishful thinking! Hope your all well.

 

[pebbie1]

Woohoooo 13% left!!!
Madness. I keep thinking I'm going to have baby early too but maybe that's wishful thinking from my side as well hahahahahaha.
People are starting to get impatient though and that's not helping!!! All asking when baby is going to be here and stuff. My mum said she told all her colleagues at work it's nearly time the baby arrives as she really wants a trip to the uk to see me and baby. Plus she is dying to find out the gender!

 

[Zfbaby]

Morning all,
Feeling not quite right this morning I feel like I'm about to start a period. Not quite cramps but that aching deep in your pelvis. Had loads of discharge this morning (sorry tmi) and my back is on fire. Plus I feel really sick. For my consultant appt at 12 not looking forward to it at all as I think it's going to be a massive waste of time, the dr isnt very nice. God didn't realise how grumpy I was today sorry ladies.

 

[pebbie1]

Awe Zfbaby that doesn't sound very nice
Is it a constant pain?
I am under a specific consultant but I've never actually seen her before and I've seen a different consultant everytime I went!! Think they've got about 20 different ones. It can be quite annoying but the last 2 ones were very nice lol!
I'm digging deep in my brain but babybrain is winning. Why are you seein the consultant again? Sorry

 

[babyface15]

oh hunni you're allowed to be grumpy every now and again at this point
well hopefully you're consultant will shed some light on who you feel so off.

it's my first day off work I can't wait to do some laundry, there's so much to do. do you girls wash everything that's new? clothes, towels, sheets etc?

 

[babyface15]

35 weeks :O
wow i'm starting to get the feeling that birth stories will start rolling in soon!!!!

 

[pebbie1]

Yep I do. I just want everything to have "our" smell as in the fresh smell from the washing and not the factory smell. I got clothes from our friends and they are washed but I still washed them as it was a different smell to ours!! lol

 

[pebbie1]

35 weeks :O
wow i'm starting to get the feeling that birth stories will start rolling in soon!!!!

Oh I so agree! Especially now aches and pains are starting with some women. How exciting!!!!!!!

 

[babyface15]

that's a good point pebbie, i'm just going to wash everything too
ah I know, it's all so exciting!! can't wait for them!

 

[OmiOmen]

Sorry your not feeling good Zfbaby.

I felt okay this morning but after walking the pains have started again. On the bright side we had a house viewing that went well today and will be putting an application in. It would mean moving right around my due date though which isn't ideal but can't be avoided. Our baby stuff arrived today, DH is really happy with the travel system.

 

[babyface15]

some friends of ours moved the day after she had her baby. they had bought a house and it closed the day of her c-section. she just got her husband (& mine) to do everything, move, paint etc while she was st the hospital lol! you'll get it all sorted out hun. I hope ir works out for you

 

[CLH_X3]

Had my midwife app, all is well except I'm now measuring 2 weeks behind instead of 1 week ahead like last time so iv dropped 3 weeks, midwife isn't concerned tho.
