Ahh I've missed so much with the holidays! Congrats on the twins, I can't believe we have 3 babies here already. I wasn't thinking about it but reading the posts I've missed, OMG a month to go!!

I've had a lot of BH this pregnancy. Not feeling quite ready yet so hope baby waits for another couple weeks. I'm with you Katiie, need to actually make a list of what I have left to do but pretty sure it's a lot.

Hope everyone else is feeling great and healthy!

Hey ladies! It's been a while things have been hectic for me. But good health wise thank goodness. Wow have I missed a lot! 3 babies already! Woah congrats to all the mommas with new babies

I have five weeks left and I am going to go crazy. I have just about everything set up already, bags packed and now just waiting for her to decide she is ready. But it seems she has decided she is just never comfortable any more and does these huge stretches and turns that hurt so bad! She pushes on my hips, pokes my cervix, and makes dang sure at least once a day she is nestled up in my ribs just enough to not be able to breathe and be very sore. I also have to pee every time I stand up but she hasn't dropped yet

She also gets hiccups at least five times a day lol. They are so cute I like to just sit here and imagine what she looks like floating around in there with her little hiccups

ALMOST THERE! Five more weeks to go!! AHHH

Oh also heres a pic I snapped of my 33 week bump!

 

[Katiie]

You look lower hun.

I'm at 5 weeks to go now!

Anyone else noticed at bang on 35 weeks you have 35 days left to go!?

 

[allforthegirl]

I did notice that! LOL

It felt so real to be at 35 weeks for me!! That we will have our babies potentially by the end of the month. So for me I could have babe in my arms in about 18-30 days, that is crazy soon!!

Hey ladies, hope you are all well, I am after a little advice really, not sure if any of you would be able to identify with the problem or suggest anything but worth a try.
I have been sorting stuff today, starting in the corner of a room and working out, well that was my plan, but it quickly came to a halt, I pulled dining table out to sort the stuff behind hubbys desk, and under our window is wet, on one side under the corner and on the other side under the corner again is a crack going down the wall to the floor, and it has been wet, but has dried. I then looked at the other windows in the house and 2 or 3 others are the same, cracks from the corner of the window to the floor, but no others are wet. Our bungalow is a wooden frame and timber building, and is a bit quirky in the way of slightly wonky floors and ceilings, but the cracks are worrying me a bit and our front door is warped, it is harder to shut, and has a gap at the top now I am a bit worried that the house is moving x

Where we live the soul level is very moist so our cement foundation is cracked from the house shifting. Most houses in our city crack and shift at some point. So for us it is normal. You just have to do maintenance on the house. We had to stabilize the one corner of the house after we had to replace the foundation there.

As for the moisture problem it is either from the inside of the house, which you will need to get yourself a dehumidifier to get rid of excess moisture. If it is outside you may just need to some maintenance on the window frame itself to seal it so it stops bring moisture in from outside.

I hope this helps you out.

I might mention it to the landlord when we pay our rent tomorrow
we were supposed to have the windows replaced in the summer but that never happened and then the man who was supposed to be doing it (he is the landlords family member) said it was only supposed to be the glass not the whole windows It never really bothered me before, but knowing we are going to have a baby here is making me notice all the little things wrong with the place I think xx

 

[allforthegirl]

That makes sense. It is weird how we get like this!! it is all about how we want to make a safe place for our little baby. Like cleaning it right down, or dusting the whole house, doing last minute renovations…. you get it.

 

[Katiie]

I have no idea about cracks and such.
We have a mould problem, and rent from a housing assoiation that won't do anything about it.
Today I noticed the car seat was mouldy. Not happy in the slightest.
I've spent all day cleaning it all, which to be fair I needed to do anyway. Now all the covers are in the washing machine and the base has been sponged clean with vanish and then sprayed clean with anti bacterial. It looks brand new! So I'm pleased.
Still a giant annoyance.

Nesting has hit me hard.
Still have a hospital bag to pack (still need to buy half the flipping stuff!)
But one step at a time.

I've just read Youngmamttc's waters have broken!
she's had a steroid shot and on anti bs. Labour hasn't started yet.
So we could have another blue bump arrive any day now!!

 

[ksilme]

I know, the amount of times I have gone back and sorted stuff again ... lol

We had a major mould problem in our old flat, but this place has been fine until recently, although we have had ALOT of rain so might be due to that x

I am gonna start washing stuff next week

Another baby so soon

I cannot wait now

 

[Katiie]

The mould was so bad. I have no idea how I didn't notice it.
It didn't help that the straps were all hidden and they were dirty from before...

But they cleaned up and look brand new! The left side has been done the right hasn't. But it's all cleaned now!! The left side was actually worse than the right too.
The liner is in the washing machine and looks gleaming too.

I know!!! I'm getting that way now.
The nesting bug hit me hard.

I sorted all my sons wardrobe, recycled old clothes, kept the ones I wanted to keep, put stuff away, put the Christmas decorations down, cleaned up in our bedroom....

Mega BH's and a tight bump now!
Had a little bit of plug loss but it's all clear coloured so nowt to worry about.
I hope my little one comes at the end of the month.

Belated Christmas and new year greetings! I'm sorry I've not had the chance to post much over the holiday period, I've been so busy with work, getting organised etc that I've not had the chance to post (although I've been reading daily on my phone)

Will update probably tomorrow. Firstly though massive congratulations to those babies and their parents who have already made their arrival! Hope they're all doing well

I can't believe were all in the final stretch now, not long to go ladies

Love gem x x x

 

[Baileeboo77]

Started washing clothes today! !! Can't believe I am hanging baby clothes!

 

[Batman909]

I'm about to do mine on the next sunny day coz I keep having freak outs of the baby coming early and nothing's clean.

 

[ksilme]

Meh Not sure what is happening now Been and paid the rent and took photos and explained to the estate agent who deals with everything for the landlord (he is good as gold though) and his response without looking at the photos was simply ' shit!!'

I have had to email the photos to him, to forward onto the landlord but may well be subsidence - now worrying that they will move us out with five and a half weeks to go x

It shouldn't be that much of work that they need to move you out. Should only take a day to fix!!
