Katy iv got quite alot of everything in every size...i was given a huge amount from a friend who had a baby girl last year...but i would say you have enough if i was just buying what i needed iykwim?

I have lots of 0-3 sleepsuits, day gro's and vests....new bought. Think they're out of newborn quite quick...i suppose it depends on how keen on washing u are? As you could do a mid week wash and be completely fine with 12 gro's!

Just make sure u have enough for 2 changes a day until u want to do a wash!

Thanks everyone. I think I might buy some more 0-3 babygrows, and more vests in 0-3 but will leave the newborn because he'll probably grow out of it so quick xx

Hia

I am 32 weeks tomorrow and have had this spd for ages, although my midwives have not said it is that, its exactly what I have, its horrible, every time I get up it hurts, I cant get up if I go down to the bottom shelf to get something, driving is uncomfortable too! Luckily with the due date and using annual leave I finish up at work next friday 18th!

Hi All

Are we keeping well?

I have my 28 week appointment tomorrow with the midwife and plan to talk to her about SPD - as I have been in pain the last couple of weeks, getting worse and agony the last few of days

It hurts to sit, stand, walk, lie down... I cant imagine another 11-12 weeks of this

Is anyone else suffering and know if theres any guidance re: SPD and driving as Im not due to finish work til end of Jan and can do up to 2,000 miles a month for work.... Ive had enough really :O(

Could I join you love bugs?

I am due the 13th Feb with a blue bump.

Thanks

HI All

Just found this on the internet for those of us with SPD:
https://www.baby-pregnancy-ultrasound-3d-4d.co.uk/Pregnancy-SPD.htm
I am going to ring the midwife about it because my next appt is not till 31 Dec!

 

[Rach28]

Had my MW appointment. She has referred me to a physio for an assessment and said I will be fitted for a support belt re: SPD.

Everything else was fine which Im pleased about.

She measured my bump and it was at 29 - so im just right even tho I feel like a whale LOL!

I was expecting bloods to be taken today but she said she doesnt do that til 34 weeks.

I also had my MATB1 form and HIP Grant form and we are still on for a home birth - yay!!

 

[IvyBaby]

I am due on 27th of Feb! And 95% sure it is a girl

 

[twiggy56]

Think iv got spd too...insides of my thighs are agony, feel like iv been riding a horse for 3 days and just got off

Also horrible tension in my lower back, and cant stand on one leg as its literally impossible. Im guna mention it to my midwife at my 32 week app...im already having to 'take it easy' due to being a 'faint risk' with very low blood pressure so only thing i can get really is physio or a support belt

twiggy - hope your midwife can help xx

lol, let's compare blood pressure!

Yayness , OH got a job, after a year of looking ! I'm so proud of him . 28 week appointment was great , baby is a perfect weight and in a perfect position apparently .

 

[teal]

Glad your appointment went well blackrose and that is great news on your OH getting a job!! xx

.im already having to 'take it easy' due to being a 'faint risk' with very low blood pressure

Oooh, me too- mine's 90/43- what's yours?
lol, let's compare blood pressure!

Well i felt really awful when i get bloods taken and the midwife took my bp it was 80/50...she was surprised i was still sitting upright....then took again after bloods and it was 90/60.

Then after these readings i had to go back to my doctor the next day for more tests...he took bp sitting- it was 80/40 then lying down...100/60...then sat upright again and it dropped straight back down to 80/50...

so pretty much iv got a low 'trend' and thats why i feel dizzy, weak, tired and faint all the time! So got an OB consult and he said its only guna get worse as baby gets bigger and the pressure increases on my artieries

Only thing they can reccomend is rest!! And feet up when sitting...

 

[twiggy56]

woo! blackrose for OH getting the job!! Bet it feels like a massive weight lifted!! Just in time aswell for buba arriving!

xx

 

[blackrose]

Very ! gosh your bp is sooooo low . must be exhausting

Yeah blackrose, im exhausted all the time! and as OB said...its only guna get worse! You should see me trying to make it round the supermarket- i perch on any shelf that looks like it could take my weight!!

When do we move into the 2nd from last box?? Im getting all excited already and think im still a couple of weeks off xx
