Its June!!!!! 20 week scan next month!!! Whos with me?

[pops23]

Just a quickie post and will do longer tomorrow but in the past couple of days beans kicks have felt lower down for me too and less hard. As it's all of us feeling this I reckon that as we're all about the same along babies must be turning or something, seems to be the case for everyone!

I'm not doing my hospital bag till I'm back from holiday and 30 weeks, and will buy stuff then. But I like the idea of using changing bag for baby bits and holdall for all my bits, good ideas ladies!! xxx

 

[Scally]

Such a relief to talk to you all, I was getting worried about the kicks not being so violent but it sounds like it happens to everyone about this time, i love this group!

My little madam has definitely changed position, before she used to be all on my right hand side and my bump looked bizarre (even the mw laughed!) and now its more normal looking!

How is everyone this morning? I have no motivation to do anything!

Yeah I defo think there's some form of movement going on around the stage we are hence the quietness. Logan made up for worrying me yesterday but kicking me non stop all night so looks like he's shifted out of whatever position he was in yesterday.

Think today is going to be spent in bed, I feel horrid have some form of spontaneous flu, the continual sneezing kept me awake every second of last night so I'm currently exhausted. Just let my oh out (only one set of keys- I lost mine lol) and I'm off back to bed to feel sorry for myself lol

How you doing this morning ally?

 

[Scally]

Sarah- oh no! u poor thing, get yourself to bed and take some paracetamol. Illness is so much harder in pregnancy with no way of dosing yourself up properly! Take care of yourself and have lots of hot drinks.

I am ok, just have no oomph! I went through a couple of weeks of this then had a week where i had energy again and now the last couple of days I've lost it again! The house is a mess!

[Sarahcake]

Same here, I have a distinct lack of motivation right now, my poor flat is looking neglected at best hope it picks up again very soon as I have visitors coming next week lol

Illness is usually crappy but I can cope, in pregnancy though ughhh I just go into baby mode and feel sorry for myself I hate that I can't take decongestants, especially as my no 1 hate about having flu/cold etc is the blocked nose that comes with!!

Congrats on reaching 3rd tri Ally! Just spotted your ticker - I think it's 27 weeks here anyways?! Can't believe we were all say here waiting impatiently for our anomoly scans and now people are beginning the transition into 3rd tri! Insanity

 

[pops23]

Congrats on 3rd tri!!

I know what you mean about having no motivation, I'm definitely feeling that! But am working all weekend so need to find some somewhere!

Off to my mw appt today at 2, will let you all know how it goes xxx

 

[Inoue]

Congratulations Scally on being in 3rd tri

Best of luck at midwifes pops! xxx

 

[Sarahcake]

Morning pops

Ooh midwife, exciting! Should get to have a listen in today and hopefully she will take a fundal height measurement for you

 

[Scally]

Ooooh thank you Pops, Sarah and Inoue! I had a little look over there, it looks scary! lol

I am hoping i get some motivation soon as working tomorrow and then driving to Birmingham on Sunday for a christening!

Good luck at your MW app Pops

[Sarahcake]

Morning inoue didn't see you ninja your post on the same time as mine lol

3rd tri does seem scary with all the 'this is it' threads but honestly, I'm over 2nd tri now lol

Think it's coz all the milestones have gone by now, 20 week scan, finding out the sex, v day, double digits etc, so there's nothing else to look forward to in 2nd.

 

[Inoue]

Morning . Lol, not like me to have ninga posts. Takes ages tweeking my posts on my phone .

I have a look in 3rd tri but all I see is posts of waters breaking, mucus plugs being lost and "this is it'. Scary!! X

 

[kellie_w]

Morning! Good luck for today pops, enjoy hearing baby! Congratulations to ally on third tri, see you there tomorrow! Hope you feel better soon Sarah. Hi inoue!

No motivation here at all. Friday is normally house work day for me where I go through top to bottom but I really really cannot be bothered to move. Luke went from poorly to fine within a hour this morning, I think as I had resigned myself to a sofa day with him that now I can't accept it's not going to happen! He is currently eating toast, crisps and a orange, first food in 3 days and honestly the mess! Who wants to come and clean for me!? And oh is annoying me hugely. I seriously cannot put up with this money wasting on his car for much longer but as I'm not bringing in any money what can I say? Each time it's the last thing for this year, until something else comes along.

Sorry, I'm just feeling a bit fat and low today

 

[Scally]

Awww huge hugs Kellie! I take it its not essentials for the car? It really isnt on, even if he is the one thats earning, that money is there for his family, thats what he signed up for when you both decided to have kids!
I budget so much with our money my OH is not allowed to spend any money without consulting the budget! lol
Friday is my housework day where i do the same top to bottom, so far I have done laundry........... and thats it! I did do the water for the washing up but its so hot i dont want to put my hands into hot water! lol
Sounds like you need a chill out day Kellie! You are not fat mrs you are pregnant, growing a gorgeous little boy, you sit back and relax and get stuck into some choc! And give your OH a kick up the bum! x

 

[Sarahcake]

Sorry to hear your having a bit of a shite day Kellie
Sod the housework for today, I know you have a routine but well, it will still be there tomorrow right?

Get your PJ's on, grab a quilt + Luke and spend the day watching films or something Going off the routine isnt going to hurt just this once. Will be 10 times harder to do it all today if your having to force yourself to do it.

I second the 'give your OH a kick up the bum' suggestion too. He needs to see that now is not the most ideal time for him to be wasting monies.

 

[kellie_w]

Thanks girls, damn these pregnancy hormones! He just called and we "discussed" had the reminder of how we never go without and how he makes sure we always have enough to get by which is true so now I feel bad as he does everything for us. I'm going to get dressed, go out, buy something disgusting for lunch and then eat ice in the garden

Xxx

 

[kellie_w]

Ohhh and that has just cheered me up! Just noticed my ticker has moved, 2 more boxes to go!

 

[Sarahcake]

Sounds like a good plan Enjoy your 'something disgusting'!

As for the money thing, its really hard isnt it when its their money that's coming in. Im in the same situation with my OH. He brings in all the money, I don't bring in a single penny and he does make sure we are taken care of, but sometimes he is just so wasteful with the cash and because its his cash, its awkward to bring it up to him. Gah men!

 

[Scally]

Yay for moving along boxes! only two to go!!!!!!! aggghhhh!

Enjoy your something disgusting for lunch! I had leftover toad in the hole batter and mash potato sandwich! lol

x

 

[Sarahcake]

Lol Ally, that sounds like my idea of hell!
I love toad in the hole, I love mash, but the idea of them both between bread makes me gag

 

[Scally]
