January Jellybeans 2013!...

Keep us updated Lauren!

Jaime - Totally normal for it to be that way. It'll take a while for everything to start returning to normal. Just keep trying the muscles every so often & eventually you'll start to feel they're doing something

Lilah - Don't worry about the cream! I had to use it after DS was born, when he was very small . I actually had nipple & milk duct thrush, but was given a cream that contained steroids & antibiotics and told to wash it off before feeds. It's totally safe for you to use it now & you won't have harmed your chances of breastfeeding. DS did great& there's no reason this should affect your little one

Nikki - looking forward to seeing what happens! Maybe Ella will be here soon!

Sassy - I'm not massively hungry either, though wish I was as there's so much lovely food around! I guess if you're ill that'll restrict your hunger too. Hope you're doing a bit better today

 

[sassy_mom]

Lilah sorry you are feeling bad. Maybe you and DH could do something together to help you out of your funk.

Lauren sorry about your headaches but yay for getting to meet your baby soon!!

 

[BlossomJ]

Good luck Lauren!

Sonia - Glad someone is listening at last. Hopefully you'll go on your own soon though

 

[sassy_mom]

So I was just thinking that unless Sonia, Melly, or I one go into labor within the next week, we will be the first to make it to our due dates and possibly then some. My due date is 6 days and I know you ladies are right before me. Either of you feel like anything is happening? Every time I think something is making a move towards it, it really is nothing. I think this is as bad as waiting to see if you actually are pregnant!

 

[mellywelly]

Nope don't feel like anything is happening here j ust backache. having a hot curry tonight, and if that doesn't work have told dh he can dtd on Sunday After 40 weeks of dtd famine, not sure he will last long though

 

[Lilahbear]

thanks blossom, that makes me feel better.

dh and I went shopping and I got a nice coat in the sales which just about covers my bump and which will look good post baby too. so feeling a bit better now.

Shopping is great medicine!

I've DTD silly. I've walked, shopped, cleaned ... no backache, no swelling, no nothing! I'm just super tired from coughing all day and night. I do feel pressure when she is rolling around and pushes down and I get those shooting, shocking type pains when her head is pushing down (or whatever she is doing). I told DH last night that I had the motivation to push this baby right out. I'm so tired of being pregnant.

 

[Soniamillie01]

Sassy - wow that's weird to think we may be the first to our due dates and we already have jellie beans with us I'm not sure when I'll go, I always said I thought I'd be early but just don't know, guess they say they'll come when ready for a reason. Due date Wednesday and consultant Friday, wonder if I'll make it to either!

Sorry about the back ache melly and bet your DH can't wait for Sunday

Lilah - hope you're feeling better after the sale shopping! I've bought a few bits but more for baby than me. I do have some vouchers though so will save them for post-delivery and get something nice.

I'm feeling really odd tonight, I'm absolutely shattered, my whole body aches, my left leg feels like a dead weight and I'm just cranky, emotional and had it. I cried earlier because I had to walk up the stairs and stopped half way for a rest! I'm going nuts! I've hardly done anything all day as well! I'm just running a bath, DH is cooking dinner then I'm going to bed! I'm feeling really heavy in my uterus tonight, like that pre-period feeling when you know AF is about to show. X

 

[mellywelly]

You sound like how I felt yesterday Sonia.

 

[Soniamillie01]

I've never really felt like this at all, I don't know what to do with myself, I feel shocking.

 

[DeedeeBeester]

Quick update: Dr says nothing has changed since last week... grrr! She even told me that he hasn't dropped... he is tucked up there and loving it... I'm just making peace with the thought of a mid Jan baby...

 

[ARuppe716]

Just had my ultrasound and baby is estimated to currently be 8lbs. Waiting for my actu appt to see what the dr has to say. I'm also having a ton of pubic bone pain lately and want to talk to her about what that could mean for my replaced hip.

I'm in the same boat today... I ache and im grumpy and just want to cry. I'm so over this right now and tired of feeling like crap!! My nausea kicked up today as well and I had an upset stomach with bm cramps and dry heaves

Sorry you are feeling bad! I think we are all ready to be done. Try and relax and maybe you will feel better soon ... or baby will decide to come on out!

 

[Soniamillie01]

Sorry you're feeling rubbish too Aruppe, hope the rest of the appointment is ok.

It really annoys me that in the uk from one NHS trust they have different standards, in my local area they scan for measuring ahead but because I'm delivering in the next district due to hospital preference (we are on the border) they don't. Surely it should be the same?

 

[Nikkilewis14]

No cervical changes ... But I'm def contracting... If they get worse to go back in.. Stupid false labor!!!

Could be a good thing though! Maybe a baby this weekend!

today is the new moon anything can happen!!!!!!

 

[darkstar]

They wont scan you Sonia? Thats crazy. My baby is showing normal size and about 6 pound 11 as at monday. I was sure he must be bigger and my fundal height is measuring 41 weeks at 37. I think fundal height is not done after 37 weeks by some docs because it gives no indication that late in pregnancy. Doesnt stop me feeling like an elephant or worrying I am carrying one though
