Happy 34 weeks teal

VP- Good idea on the shaving it all thing, my only worry is that since I keep getting sent back and forth to hospital someone will need to do something down there while I'm all baldy For some reason I can't help but think people will think I'm really dirty if I have no hair there at all. I don't know why I think that, it's just something I've always had a "thing" about.

I'm the same getting out the bath, have to get on my knees first.

I also feel exhausted after trying to do almost anything, so I just let OH do it I feel bad but I'm just too knackered. xx

happy 34 weeks Teal, and Katy my fellow due dater- happy 35 weeks!

I also feel exhausted after trying to do almost anything, so I just let OH do it I feel bad but I'm just too knackered. xx

Katy you're too nice ...i dont even feel guilty now as i literally dont hav the capacity 2 bend down, i get exhausted from the tiniest things...and iv been doing all the work growing this buba for the past 8 months!!

 

[Dream.A.Dream]

Only 2 weeks until we're full term!!

Right, I'm about to leave for my growth scan because it's snowing so will no doubt take ages to get there xx

Well I am 36 weeks today and I've had pains on and off starting last night, kinda regular braxton hicks, also got continuous severe lower back ache, feel like i need a poo all the time and feel sick. Phoned delivery suite they think i could be in early labour, just got to stay at home and see if contractions get any stronger or last longer. So tired, couldn't sleep all night with pains - also got an 18 month old to look after aswell. xx

 

[twiggy56]

eeek! Katy, 2 more weeks sounds bloody scary to me!! Iv been waiting for February to come for soooo long, i cant quite believe its next month!! Good luck at your scan hun, hope buba is just hiding well in there, let us know if they give u an estimated weight!

Icside- sounds very promising, this may be it 4u! Good luck!

 

[teal]

Katy - hope your scan goes well!

I got measured again to check my bra size because bra starting to feel a bit tight - even on the last clip. Did I get a huge shock. For now my bra size has gone from a 32D pre pregnancy to a 36G. I'm sure you all wanted to know

 

[pinkclaire]

Good luck at your scan Katy!

Icside, hope your ok hun! fingers crossed for you xx

I'm ignoring how big my boobs have got. When I met hubby I was a 32e - I'm way past a 36H now and am wearing soft bras and ignoring the sizing lol Its depressing!

ON a brighter note, its feels as if my fanny is going to be torn in half soon. I'm going to take to using a belt to tie my legs shut in order to try not be in pain when moving. grrr.

RE: boobs and Bras- I had a breast reduction when I was 19 and absolutely LOVED my smaller breasts...now they`re easily as big as they were BEFORE the surgery. OY.

Anyone elses LO like NEVER stop moving? haha

I swear my little girl is ALWAYS poking and prodding at me, and it kinda hurts lol They say babys are suppose to slow down around this time but it feels/looks like shes trying to bust her way out ALL the time!!!

Yep, same here--- but mummy is a worry-wart so it helps to have a hyper baby

My boobs have hardly grown - was 36C before pregnancy, wearing a 38C now (not underwired) and have a 36D breast feeding bra. Also have only gained a stone since start of pregnancy - very different to last time (nearly 13 years ago!!).

By next tuesday I will be the mother of a teenager - agggghhh!! then a week or two later a mother of a baby and a teenager, OMG!

Have lots of pressure down below and really hope baby comes sooner than due date, am having dreams where its a boy, none of it as a girl - does that mean much at all....

This is really lovely, I wish sometimes I`d started earlier as now I feel the pressure is on if I want to have more. I`m sure it`s stressful to be the mom of a teenager and a newborn, but it`s really special too

My boobs are a 34F now I think. Can't believe they'll get even bigger when my milk comes in.

I'm back from my growth scan. It's not good news really I don't think. I wasn't too worried because I'd convinced myself they'd do their measurements and all would be fabulous. But not the case. He is measuring really quite small, pretty far below the 10th centile. I could see on the screen when she was doing his measurements and his tummy measurement was saying "EDD- 13th March" then another said 14th and another 18th March. So since I'm actually due 17th of Feb he must be really small I have to go back for another scan in 2 weeks and seeing the consultant then. In the meantime I think I'm going to book a MW appointment and ask her to talk through with me exactly what it all means and the potential implications. xx

oohh Katy - lots and lots of luck.. I know some just catch up xxxxx

Can I still post here - I know I am now technically a garnet but just cant give up my lovebugs!!!!

I am starting to get very jittery about the delivery now - sooo many people have been shocked I am delivering twins naturally I am beginning to get scared AARRGGHHHH. Mind you I guess none of these people have delivered twins and the consultants must know what they are doing mustnt they????????/

Vicky I thought I'd missed something and you had had them when you said that! A few of us could end up going into January/March thats just the nature but we're still Lovebugs at heart!

I think its fantastic your delivering twins naturally, of course its possible! My midwife was telling me she delivered 37 week twins over the weekend, she said they were gorgeous!

 

[Dream.A.Dream]

Of course you can still post here

I'm not surprised you're nervous. I know I would be, but as you said the consultants must know what they're doing xx

Hugs Katy xx

If they were very concerned the baby was small they would have done something there an then rather than waiting two weeks so that is reassuring. My friend just had a baby at T+10 and weighed only 5lb 3oz, noone had even picked up on the fact he was small, he had to go to SCBU because of the weight, but he is absolutely fine, just little! Hopefully your midwife will reassure you. I always find it good to talk over my scans with my midwife as they never seem to explain it properly when your there! xx

Hey Vicky- I'm sure all will be well but of course your nervous, that's only natural. In a way the 'suspense' before we go into the whole birthing process is harder to handle because we don't know what to expect--I'll bet that when you're actually in the process, challenging though it may be, you'll be less nervous as you then know exactly what you're dealing with.

I'm sure everything will go great !!

ok ok just googled slapped myself about a bit and now not scared - am strangely excited. I have always LOVED challenge and hell this is the first and last time I will be doing this so BRING IT ON - I am ready hehehehe (do I sound mad or drunk) hehe

haha nah just probably VERY naive - I just keep thinking - well pain only hurts doesnt it. Its what our bodies are designed to do and what the worst eh - a few days of pain and you get a gorgeous baby (or in my case two) who may go on to invent a cure for cancer, have babies of their own and be amazing people. I just keep thinking that and me being in pain seems a smal price to pay xx
