Wow not been here in awhile ,hope everyone is well cant believe iv only 8 weeks leftctill bubs is here ,its come so quick now p.snever moving house whennpregnant again talk about exhausting

Naomi - woohoo for head down!!

My LO flips over from breech to head down like... 3 times or day or more! Eventually she's going to have pick a side and stick with it!

how can you tell?

ive started to pack my bags now and sorted out baby clothes, i got loads as gifts from work and lost track of what i had, i dont think i need to buy any for a few months now

I can tell two different ways.... one by where her kicks are... and the second when she is flipping over IT HURTS... My belly will feel like its stretching sideways, I'll look down at my bump and see 2 humps.. One is hard and its her head, and the other is her rump! after about 30 seconds or so, the two humps will be gone, the stretching sideways pain is gone... and her kicks are either up top, or down bottom.

I'm trying to figure out how she has the room to move around like that!!

I felt baby move head down about a week ago and it seems to like this position now. I used to get loads of pain in my ribs and felt like my lungs were being crushed but that has gone now. Just get kicked in my ribs every now and then! lol

Baby Millward did not let his Mummy sleep, every two hours up for the loo.....oh well it was worth a try! Maybe I should get a bladder shaped pillow for when he pops out. Got to be up early tomorrow for the gestational diabetes test....no breakfast till 10:30 : ( Anyone else had it?

 

[mum2be2011]

Hi Millward, I had the test 3 weeks ago now. The drink isnt the best but there isnt that much of it to drink. It tastes like lucozade with a couple of extra teaspoons of sugar.

Take something with you to read/do whilst you are waiting for the hour to pass before the next blood sample and a bottle of water as you will get pretty thirsty. Afterwards they tell you to get something to eat and drink before you leave, I took a sandwich, pack of snack a jacks and a bottle of ribena with me. You may feel light headed so eat something as soon as you can.

Does everyone get the Glucose screening test as routine?
My next appointment isn't til next monday. Maybe they'll mention it then...

 

[LittleMrs]

Glucose tolerance test is only given in UK if they think you are at risk (if you have a high BMI - over 30 I think, if you have a family history of diabetes or if you had gestational diabetes in a previous pregnancy. There are other things but I'm not sure what they are). I had the test last Monday and it was a bit ew (they gave everyone the same cup - not very hygenic for a hospital) and I've not heard from them yet. They did say that I wouldn't hear if everything was ok so so far so good.

Sar, I'll be thinking of you!!!

I went for my check up this morning and got to see our little girl She is now weighing 1.6kg (1-2wks ahead, big baby thankfully I'm having a caesar so I don't need to worry if she keeps growing at that rate, lol) My doc gave me a prescription for magnesium tablets which will hopefully help with the leg cramps I get every morning, they are excruciating

 

[smiffy85]

I've just had a phone call from the doctors after my trip the hospital on friday. Because the doctor who saw me insisted on an internal examination *shudder* and he took a swab it turns out I have a little infection down there. OOO eerrr lol. Nurse on the phone did reassure me it was gonna harm me or bean though lol so I'm guessing thrush maybe. Although haven't been having any symptoms! Crazyness!

Sar I hope everything is ok with you hun. Fingers crossed for you!

Gonna go take my bump pic now! xxx

 

[blessed]

Sar hope you get to feeling better!

Boo for infections Smiffy It will clear up!

 

[smiffy85]

Just posted bump pics on the 3rd tri your bumps thread but thought I would pop a few here too just for you special january jellybeans!! I have just taken these. The first pic is from 27 wks to compare what has happened to my tummy over the last 3 wks! Although the 2nd pic is last wks 29 wk one and don't think that much has happened this week!! The last 2 are from just now!

O I know what I was going to ask! Has anyone noticed any particular foods or drinks that set their jellybean off dancing and squirming more than normal?? Tea and coffee (decaf lol) seems to set my little mr off. Just had a cuppa and it's like he's having a party in there!!!!
