everything aches!

[Gracey&bump]

my back, my belly, my legs, my feet...
i cant walk to the other side of my village without getting a stitch
i feel huge.

i wake up practically every morning with cramp
i feel like i cant do anything anymore, without getting out of breath or just generally exhausted.

im way too hormonal & just want to meet my little girl!

im really not enjoying these last few weeks

sorry for the rant girls, just needed to get it all out!

 

[bbyno1]

i feel useless atm and everyones telling me to just keep active but its like where is the energyy?
your a week ahead of me tho so im jelousx

 

[Gracey&bump]

ahh your full term tomorrow!
& i know! everyones like 'go for a long walk'
ive tried! but i get a stitch and my legs ache so bad that i have to keep sitting down
it feels so weird to be this unfit.

 

[bbyno1]

yehh i cant wait fro tomorrow lol
it does dont it!my OH still thinks im just as capable now as ever before and its like erm no im not i need you to help me lol he thinks i just exaggerate i swear!
have you been doing anything to try getting her out like the curries n that?lol x

 

[Gracey&bump]

haha they just dont understand!
yes! ive tried curries (yuck!) pineapple, birthing ball, hot baths
but nothing...

i guess she'll come when she's ready, but i wish she'd stop being stubborn

 

[bbyno1]

ooh how have you found the birthing ball?
im going to get mine tomorrow
i havnt tried nothing yet coz im not full term but dunno if im gunna be wasting my time or not lol
i think they do come when they are ready ,we just wish they would be ready a lil sooner !

have you got any stretch marks yet?x

 

[Gracey&bump]

i love the birthing ball!
it helps my back sooo much, it almost stops it aching
& if you get painful BH's it helps too

& yes
none on my belly (yet) FX'd i havent just jinxed myself!
but i've got them on my bum, they're only little ones but they feel deep & they're a dark purple/red

have you got any?

 

[bbyno1]

oow looking forward to trying it out!
i got light ones on my bum lol and i found a red one on my hip yesterday! i thought it was a scratch but nope i hope it doesnt mean more red ones to come tho!all iv been doing is putting a few drops of bio oil in my bath and thats it :/ x

 

[Gracey&bump]

really!?
ive been smothering myself in coco butter & i still got them
aslong as they stay off my belly and back i guess its okay

are you taking your birthing ball to hospital with you?

 

[bbyno1]

you would think out of anywhere to get them you would get them on the belly wouldnt you lol
im not taking mine to hospital because they already got loads at mine for us to use..
im gunna be finding out on sunday if i get my water birth but im prepared for a no

you getting nervous now about the labour part or you just dont care you wanna meet her now?lol x

 

[aob1013]

Ditto, can't wait for this to be over. Really can't wait x

 

[Gracey&bump]

why do you think it'll be a no?
well im not exactly looking forward to the labour part lol, but cant go back now!
i just want her out all safe&sound

 

[bbyno1]

well my iron levels have gone really low apparently so im on 3 tablets a day
aww she will be totally perfect and healthy!
iv gone into mad mode lol i really wanna know what it feels like to be in labour and im well excited for the pain nowx

 

[Gracey&bump]

excited for the pain?
that is mad!

i didnt know low iron meant no water birth
i hope you get it

 

[bbyno1]

well thats what my midwife said if my irons low then no can do
if not on the bed it is for me lol

madness! lastnight i had this really weird feeling in my belly..like a belly ache but much worse and not a period pain type one,its really hard to explain..have you had anything like that?x

 

[Gracey&bump]

is it in the middle of your belly or high up?
ive had an achey belly for ages

but ive had period type pains too & BH.

was it a tightening?

 

[bbyno1]

not up high no..like in the middle and down below..
i get braxton hicks apparently but i can never feel them so i dont know :S
it felt like someone had been sitting on my belly for a hour then just got up..if you know what i mean lol i was trying to explain to my mum and just couldnt but one minute it wasnt soo strong then it was getting stronger again then back down again?x

 

[Gracey&bump]

maybe its baby engaging?
or maybe its BH except you're actually feeling them this time lol.

have you had any signs?

 

[bbyno1]

yeh maybe lol
nope no other signs i dont think other than im not even sure if i lost my plug or not..tmi but i lost this snotty stuff but it was only white not no red or pink tinge to it but i lost that weeks ago now :S

have you had any signs?

 

[Gracey&bump]
