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

[ttc_lolly]

I looked up Caister Inoue, and looks lovely but a bit too pricey - £370 for this weekend we have booked with Pontins in Suffolk instead. Looks pretty good and the circus is there on Saturday which DD will love only £138 too so bargain!

Anyone else feeling a bit sore/achey ''downstairs''!? I am, only when sat on the toilet doing a pee though it feels like it could be pressure, but I think I'm carrying quite high so god knows!

 

[Scally]

Oooooh where in Suffolk?

I get that most definitely, it sometimes feels that baby is just going to drop out! lol x

 

[Sarahcake]

Yeah I get that too, its normal to me now but it worried me at first.

 

[time]

Oh glad that's not just me!! When I first got it I thought baby was going to come there and then haha

 

[Sarahcake]

Yeah it does feel like that doesnt it! Odd sensation!

 

[Inoue]

Wow, Caister has got expencive! Glad youve got something sorted though

I also have that heavy feeling when on loo . Not everytime but every now and again i wonder if shes going to fall out into the toilet! Is anyone also prodding there LO when it suddenly occurs that you havent felt them in a few hours? lol. Im sat here thinking i havent felt her in 2 hours so i need to go and prod her... what a cruel mummy x

That bolded bit seems more appropriate to this sentence . Off now to make Reimi squirm, lol x

 

[Sarahcake]

Damn, ive been busted lol

I always thought that I would worry less about him once I could feel his movements but nope...its come with a load of its own worries!

 

[ttc_lolly]

Glad I'm not the only one with the weird achey noonie It does feel like she might just fall out in the toilet bowl! Doing a Sonia Jackson

Ally, we are off to Pontins Pakefield. Reviews sound mixed, more good than bad so that's ok! Nothing like those of Martello Beach I'm really looking forward to it now, bit of a drive though but I might just sleep all the way there whilst OH drives!

time - was it you who also applied for MA? Just to let you know I heard back from them today to say how much I'll be getting took a day under 3 weeks so not to bad. Have you heard back yet? x

 

[time]

Hi lauryn yeah it was me! Been about 3/4 weeks now so hopefully won't be too much longer! Did you get as much as you hoped? I don't know how strict they are! Also don't know when they start paying it as I'm still at work and they didn't ask on the form when I plan on working until :s

 

[ttc_lolly]

I got more than I expected so was a nice bonus! The letter you'll receive will tell you how much you'll get and there's a slip to send back to let them know when you intend to go on maternity leave (or if you already have) and when you want payments to commence x

 

[time]

Ah that's brilliant thanks lauryn!

And glad you got more what a nice surprise!

 

[Scally]

I got my MA form back this week too! mine took 4 weeks. I am trying to work out the wording on the back about how to fill the form in and the sentences are awful, cannot work out what its trying to say at all! x

Lauryn- sounds lovely, hope you have a great time! When are you giving up work?

I have had a big debate with my OH about when to give up work, even though i only work one day a week it seriously kills me- 8 hours on my feet, next to no toilet breaks, stocking up cleaning etc. He wants me to finish beginning of Oct, I wanted to work until D day so we are coming up with a compromise of the middle of October- do u think thats reasonable of me to ask of the boss? It means i have three saturdays off before c section?

x

 

[ttc_lolly]

That's more than reasonable Ally, I'd probably go earlier but that's just me (I'm lazy )! I've already finished work, my OH got a new job which paid a lot more than his old job + my part time work combined, and buggered up our childcare so I had to hand my notice in. Wasn't planning on going back after bubs anyway so I didn't mind too much what do you do? I'm also doing open uni, but I don't seem to be getting much done nowadays as all we ever do is go to playgroups, meet friends and sleep!

 

[time]

I think that's perfectly reasonable ally! I wouldn't work any longer than you have to especially stood for 8 hours that's not good! Have a nice relaxing before baby comes

Happy 31 weeks!! Time is going far too quick eeek

 

[Sarahcake]

Yeah I can't see any issues with that at all ally tbh, it's not like your going off months in advance or anything.

 

[Scally]

Thank you ladies! I worry as there arent many people that work there but others keep saying to take what i am entitled to!

Hows your days been?

I have bought a few more bits for my hospital bag today aswell as a nightshirt for breastfeeding afterwards for £5 in Marks and Spencers outlet reduced from £20!

[time]

I went a bit mad on Tesco online today! They have the most gorgeous baby clothes in at the moment and SO cheap!! Got a load of outfits, mainly leggings and tops and a few more vests, and got myself some dark colored pj's for hospital and some leggings cos I know I'll be living in them once baby's born!

Now I need to get some cost slipper socks for hospital! May hit primary tomorrow

Is baby really 16/17" long now?!?! Just looked at that on a tape measure and it is HUGE!!!
