***January Jellybeans***~ 35 BABY GIRLS & 23 BABY BOYS BORN ~***

[snowy-willow]

I haven't really been keeping up to date as have been on a househunt. We have found somewhere so now are just waiting to hear back about our references - I hate this waiting. Once I know I can either relax and enjoy things or panic and start doing more frantic searches.

Monday is v-day and I can't wait and I realised earlier that it is 10 weeks on Monday until my next scan. I can't wait to see Bean again.

Bean has been kicking quite a bit - well at 1:30am this morning was kicking like crazy and my bf was able to feel them for the second time (first time was Monday). Bean seemed to kick more when my bf spoke but then this morning was kicking to my voice! I love feeling Bean kick, it makes me stop what I am doing in hope that I will feel more.

hope everyone is well, not long until 3rd trimester now.

went and brought my bassinet today ,its gorgeous ,im in love with it so much so that had it put together even tho im moving in about 2-3 weeks time so it will have to come down only to be put up again but i could not resist ...hope everyones well xx

 

[blessed]

I made it! V day today! but I'm having period type cramping ever since I woke up... scares me a bit

 

[Jolene]

Snowy, isn't it amazing being able to share the experience with your BF!!!!????

Ama, I sometimes just stand at the door of the nursery and daydream, lol, it's far from finished so you're not alone, lol.

Blessed, I really do get concerned about the cramping sometimes but I try to tell myself it's normal otherwise I'd go crazy. Obviously if it is really severe of accompanied by bleeding then you should go to the doc immediately! Congrats on v-day!

 

[blessed]

Thanks Jolene I made a trip to the hospital today and they monitored me. Told me I was dehydrated and needed fluids and now I'm on bed rest until my next appointment (thank God that's on monday) *sigh* but LO is doing just fine!

Shame hun Glad to hear your baby is doing well though! Look after youself!

My son is just recovering from phayngitis (throat infection, ear infection, high temp, amongst other things) and obviously I have had to be with him 24hrs a day. I'm not one to get sick very easily but lo and behold it got me My whole body is sore. What do I do? It's obviously no use going to the doctor because they can't prescribe anything!!?? I just forced down some breakfast so that I can take paracetamol but don't see how they're going to help. I hope this isn't a dumb question but do you girls think this could affect the baby in any way and if not how is she protected from these germs?

Jolene your bodies response to illness and antibodies it makes will pass to your baby. She will be fine in there as long as you stay hydrated. She will take what she needs from you regardless so your the one likely to feel even worse if you can't get in what you need for both of you. So hugs and get well soon xx

Hye ladies! Sorry I've not posted on here much lately, it's all been pretty hectic over the last two weeks with the move, we've had a nightmare time! Anyway, we're all moved in in California now and yesterday we went to Babies r Us n ordered crib and glider and bought mattress, bedding, mobile and wall decals so am very excited to start getting everything in place!

 

[LittleMrs]

Congrats on the v days and sympathy to those of you not feeling too well. I get cramps and it's nice to know others do as well. I best start drinking the recommended amount of water if it could be dehydration related (I never drink enough, especially at work - I'm afraid of having to dash off to the loo all the time).

LO has been non-stop for days now, quite brutal at times but am happy that I can finally feel her properly. I'm also semi-convinced that I may have to become super-woman in the coming months and certainly after LO arrives. Today I have: been to visit OH's grandma; made two meals; done all the clothes washing and drying AND done a couple of hours of work too. Taking a quick break so that the tips of my fingers can return to a normal shape and then it's back to work for a bit until it's time to make tea. When LO gets here I'll have to fit all this stuff around her but I'm sue she'll be worth it. Besides, I always work better under pressure. Anyone else feeling a bit.....run off their feet?

Hope everyone is ok? I been without internet for 3 days OMG NIGHTMARE!!! C aine is poorly crap weekend,!

 

[blessed]

Hope you get to feeling better Jolene! I'm sure there is nothing to worry about

 

[naomicourt]

I have had a crap weekend too JMS. My daughter has been ill with a temperature, bless her, and has not been sleeping. also I went to hospital yesterday as I was a bit worried that my waters were leaking and I ended up waiting for five hours!!! Grrrrr!!!

Everything is fine though and cervix is tightly shut which is a relief but, I may have an infection so they have taken a swab.

Hopefully the rest of the week will be better.

 

[jojo-m]

Must be a week for infections, I got nurse to dip my urine cos thought was brewing something and it's got protein in it so been sent off, just wait to hear what I'm growing now I guess.

Hope jms, naomi and jolene all feel better soon and LO's too, then mummys get sleep! X

 

[lovealittle1]

Hope everyone that has been feeling not so great is feeling better soon

Just want to say that today is my V-Day

 

[jms895]

Happy V day hun!

Hope everything is ok Naomi x

 

[blessed]

Happy Vday dear!

 

[LittleMrs]

Happy V day, lovealittle.

Hope everyone who's not feeling on top of the world feels better soon. xx

 

[jojo-m]

Yay happy v day! Looking forward to mine on wednesday! X

 

[jms895]

How are you Jolene?

 

[smiffy85]

Gosh lots of ill people! Seems to me since Ive been back at work theres loads of germs flying around. The sckness and other end bug is going round again and I had it in february and soooo do not want it again!! Sending lots of get well soon messages to all the poorly mummys and their families!

LittleMrs - I feel rushed off my feet. Although OH has already said hes prepared to take up the slack when the time comes but is makin the most of me doing everything now whilst I still can!! The cheeky so and so! Lol. I don;t have it that bad though, he does help out and it's only me and him. No other little people to worry about till january!!

Bean has been going crazy in my tummy over the past week. His kicks seem less like one big hit now and more a series of jiggles and proper movements. Felt like he was doing a jig this morning when I woke up!!

Happy v - day to all those reaching the milestone and its midwife for me on thursday (sneaky lie in wooooop) xxxxxxx
