its funny when I hear people say 'we dont know what we did with our time before a bub came along' Its sooooooooooooo true!!!!! I never realised just how much time we did nothing with - it certainly keeps you busy when they get here xx In a good way though

mmmm, got a phonecall a bit ago from my m/w. I had xtra bloods taken last week at my 36 wk appt as I told them I was gettin wierd dizzy spells & shakes etc. Apparently I have a low iron level so need to go n pick up some iron tablets and folic acid, great, that'll really help with the constipation!!! Glad I know why I was getting dizzy etc at least.

 

[vinnypeanut]

Caz for the record my iron tablets have the opposite effect on me and "loosen" everything up.

They might be a godsend if ur feeling a bit bunged up.

My BH feel different at different times, I get them round my back, like a quick tightening, and also I get them at the top of my bump, the bump goes all tight and it makes me feel a bit breathless! they can last anything from 5 seconds to 10 mins but there is no regularity. I mainly get the bump ones when I am sitting down.

I have been to the midwifes today and bubs is fully engaged, so thats what I am putting the period cramping pains down to, ouch it is painful when they start doing that, so could be what it is?

Vinny- you just made me LOL I really want a big pop to happen as well! I dont think it happens to many people though, I lie in bed wishing that it would happen quite a lot lately!

Lou lou, dont panic, not everything needs to be done the second they are here, we're not worrying about the nursery to much as baby will be with us for 6 months, we havent decided on a name, think will just decide when LO is here, so what if it doesnt have a name for a few hours! My mum and dad had me 6 weeks early, they were completely unprepared, the whole house was being carpeted at the time, they had no stuff bought, but they said you manage when you have to and I think thats true!

Thanks claire. I think you are rigth it is probably engaging pains. Bubs will be in our room for first 6 months too so I dont know why I'm panicking!! I think I'm just having one of those days when the reality hits you and you think "oh my god this baby wont stay in my tummy forever and will be making its way out soon and I will actually have a baby in a couple of weeks time!!". and I'm panicking that we wont be prepared and wont know what to do with the poor little thing! Ah, its times like these when I wish I coudl have a nice stiff drink!

I got braxton hicks back in the 20's but not had any since. Mine felt like tightening's and my tummy got hard. Now I just get the odd grumbling period pain/pressure from bubs.

Dont fret about getting everything finished Lou. My nursery is still a junk room bubs is sleeping with us for 6 months anyway.

Mine is a tip at moment. It was nearly finished, then my OH, bless him, decided to put up the curtains. To put up the curtain pole he had to drill a couple of holes. Apparently this meant turning the cot upside down, moving everything round and taking a load of stuff back out the nursery! I can hear the sound of him sawing now??!! I said "what are you doing?" he says "you dont want to know". OMG trying not to panic lol!

 

[lou_lou1979]

I am really wanting to meet my baby now, but I'm also a bit in denial, I keep thinking at some point anytime from now I am going to get a baby and my whole life will change forever and never be the same again. Obviously I mean this in a good way, but its quite daunting dont you think?

Me too, I flip from complete excitement to sheer terror a few times a day. I worry that I won't be able to look after him properly, or won't be able to tell what he needs. Hopefully it will be as instinctive as everyone says.

My cot bed was delivered today and I put it together myself

I'm feeling really overwhelmed at the sight of it though. Just making everything feel more real and I'm also terrified that I'm going to be responsible for a new baby in about a months time! xx

Well done you for building your own cotbed! I'm impressed No way I could have done ours. I am terrified also, I think it's kinda normal thing to go through at the end.

Gills- sorry you're feeling so bad today.

I have my follow up growth scan tomorrow, I'm a bit scared because I dunno what the consultant is going to say. Have everything ready though just incase baby does need to come early. xx

Good luck Katy xx
