Had my 28 wk appointment today, took my Glucose test, I hope the results are good cause I don't want to take it again. My next appointment is in 3 wks (31wks)

 

[Disneydancr]

Aw, smiffy! Sorry You're not feeling well!

Angelblue, I hope all goes well with you and your baby girls. Yep, they'll be the first Jellybeans!

As far as emotions, mine have been on the fritz lately too. Spent about an hour crying in the shower today for no reason and couldn't get myself out of bed to work yesterday... I'm so ready to not be pregnant anymore!

 

[Jolene]

Smiffy, how are you feeling today?

Angelblue, You've had a tough time! I'll be thinking of you over the next few days. Can't wait to hear about the birth of your healthy little baby girls.

Abstermum, hope your appointment goes well today!

Hey everyone! I'm feeling much better after a good nights sleep - didn't even get up to pee I was so wiped out!! I am putting it down to some dodgy seafood in the fish pie I made seeing as I feel better today. I have eaten more toast and managed some chicken soup last night so all is good. At the midwife this morning for 31 wk appt so looking forward to seeing how much bean has grown!

Just wanted to say this place is such a lifeline for me and I'm sure a lot of us feel the same! I feel like I can say anything to you lot and you will give me your points of view and understanding! I just want to say that you're all doing such an amazing job at cooking your jellybeans and I am getting so excited that it's not long now before they will start to make their appearance into the world.

Angelblue - wow you've got amazing strength and well done for keeping your jellybeans safe and growing in there! Good luck this week and can't wait to see the first january jellybeans to be born!!

Abstermum - thinking of you too! Hope it goes ok!

LittleMrs - I feel your parents evening woes! I have got mine on monday night next week till 7pm! Gonna be one hell of a day!

Best get dressed now! Appt is in less than an hour! xxxx

 

[mum2be2011]

Smiffy - glad your feeling better today thanks for sending the sickness my way (only joking) feel so rough, no interest in food what so ever

On a plus note I'm 30 weeks today not long to go now how scary.

Hope everyone else and jellybeans are feeling ok.

 

[beccybobeccy]

Hope everyone is doing okay... sorry to hear there is a lot of sickness returning... week 12-17 of this pregnancy were dark days sickness -wise so I hope it doesn't come back like that!!

angelblue - good luck with everything! can't believe the first jellybeans are imminent!! eeek!
Abstersmum - hope the appointment goes well!

Disneydancr - my emotions are all over the place at the moment too. Completely hyper one minute/totally down in the dumps in tears the next... I feel sorry for my OH mostly... lol

 

[smiffy85]

Back from the midwife and all is well. Bean is measuring bang on at 31 cm and all my blood tests came back fine. Blood pressure is back up to normal too. So I'm very happy.

Sorry mumtobe!! Didn't know you could catch feeling sick through the computer hehe! :wink:

I've just taken some pics of my nursery this morning. Its not quite finished as I need to get the pictures up on the walls but gonna do a thread with the pics in so if you want to look, keep your eyes peeled from a thread from me!!

Thanks for all your support girls, there are still no free incubators in NICU today, but they are transferring babies out etc this afternoon so enless something happens this afternoon or tonight he thinks its looking like it'll be tomorrow. I really hope it is because OH will be here with me all day so I won't have to worry about him getting here on time (would take him 2 hours to get home from work and drive here) and the 5th is a cool birthday! so we'll see what they say in the morning!

Hello ladies. Please beware if you don't like stories about sick look away now!

Well I took a turn for the worst after my post last night. About half 8 I started to feel really sick and I thought it was because I had a bit of heartburn but it just seemed to get worse and worse. So i went to bed feeling really crap but luckily wasn't worried about the baby cos he was moving around still. Woke up again at 1am and that was when the fun started. I went to the loo cos I still felt really sick. At first I just sat on the bathroom floor and nothing happened so I went back to our bedroom and got my glass of water, had a sip and that was me done. I had to hotfoot it back to the bathroom and just made it before I lost my tea. It was awful but I instantly felt better. OH got woken up - I am so not a quiet puker - and he brought me some fresh water. I got back into bed only to start feeling sick again 10 mins or so later. Bean was still kicking me so wasn't worried about him being affected. Managed to drop back off before I had to run to the bathroom for another episode at half 3. Decided to go downstairs and lay on the sofa so OH didn't get too disturbed and I made myself a glass of very weak orange squash and tried to eat a dry biscuit whilst I watched tv. Bad idea as that all came back again about half hour later. So remembering that whenever your sick you should replace fluids, I tried some more water and again that came back. This was about 5am so had been ill 4 times in 4 hours!! I managed to fall asleep watching tv for a couple of hours and woke up at quart to 7 when OH got up. Since then I haven't been ill again although I feel really crap and still very nauseous. I went to sleep when OH left for work at half 7 and woke up at 11 and have just tried another dry biscuit and some weak squash in the hope it stays in.

Needless to say I'm not at work lol! Officially on a PJ day now, house is a tip but tryin not to worry about it. Bean is still moving lots and I managed to take a healthy start vitamin a while ago so all in all I'm not too worried about him. More about me lol cos I hate feeling and being sick!!!! Anyway I'm taking it easy but do you think I should give midwife a call just to check if there's anything I can do to make sure bean is getting what he needs or have I done what I can?!? I can't make my mind up!

Hope you are feeling better now hun xx

 

[jms895]

Sorry to hear you are sick Smiffy....make sure you don't hurry back to work, I know what us teachers are like!

I've had a really pants day at work and am now at home feeling very tired and tearful....maybe it's the hormones. I don't know what to do really ladies....I'm three days in to the half term and feel so slow and tired and emotional. Like I just can't cope with the demands of 28 four/five year olds. Today the whole unit (open plan for two reception classes) have just been wild or whingy. Very disruptive in terms of teaching and like I need to be in four places at once. I don't normally feel unable to do my job properly even with the demands of working in an area of high social deprivation. My maternity isn't due to start till the Xmas holidays but I can't see how I'm going to last. Should I just press on and cry at home time or think of something else (don't know what though) Hate to think of taking time off sick because I'm not actually sick, just pregnant!

Do you have any hols tp use? Cant you start mat leave earlier hun xx

Smiffy - glad your feeling better today thanks for sending the sickness my way (only joking) feel so rough, no interest in food what so ever

JMS - Happy 31 weeks Jade Hope you had a lovely meal last night and a lovely lie in this morning without having to worry about getting up to sort Caine out.

 

[abstersmum]

Thanks for all your support I saw a gastroenterologist today and he has no idea why I'm not feeling ill apparently I should they still don't know what's causing my bile acid levels to rise but I will have a blood test everyday and will have a scan on my spleen at some point on the plus side baby is doing well and I had the best nights sleep ever I didn't wake up once thanks again for reading and keeping my spirits up x x

I dont know Naomi but it sure does suck. Im wondering if mine is morning sickness as I dont feel as sick anymore although if I smell food then I get a sudden wave of nausea. I was like this from 6 weeks up until weeks 18-19, feeling sick but I was actually being sick then (lost over 10lb in that time). Hayley is unbelievably active today which isnt helping the sickness and she is jabbing her foot in my ribs. Sometimes if she gets me just right it feels as if she is trying to break my rib out for more room

Naomi - cant believe you've only got 7 weeks left.

 

[LittleMrs]

31 weeks today -single figures (though OH has been referring to us as being in single figures since 30+1). Thinking of going for a lie down before doing some work to give LO a bit of room to stretch in because she's giving me some real pain today.

Smiffy - glad you feel better.

Mum2be - sorry you feel rubbish.

abstersmum - glad you feeling better, jealous of the good night's sleep. Up 3 times last night and can't get back to sleep for an hour each time - at least.

 

[Disneydancr]

Blech!!!!!!!!! I think the sickness has reached the United States! Up all night with a fidgety LO, headaches, tummyaches, and nausea!
