Keeping SAR in my thoughts.

As for sex drive. I don't thinks mine has changed but I think DH's has - he seems way less interested which of course I take personally. I have lost my confidence though and they say that if you are not confident with yourself it is a turn off for men. I just dont feel sexy anymore. We went from about 3 times per week to about once now. It is also getting more and more difficult now our choices seem to be very limited lately.

Cloth nappies - I really wanted to use cloth for many different reasons but DH wasnt having it so I backed off. We will be using disposables. I have bought one box of newborns and almost everythime I go into baby's nursery I take one out and hold it - they are so tiny and cute.
 
Hello ladies :hugs:

I was just thinking, which is unusual at the minute.. do any of you ladies have a way of contacting eachother if anything were to happen to any of us? I suppose what i'm thinking is maybe we could all have one text buddy, just as an emergency, so we could update eachother on here if any of our situations changed?

What do you all think? I know that if anything happened here my OH wouldn't pop on here to let you all know. I just thought, as we seem to be quite a good support network for eachother..

This is a good point, Faff. To be fair it's probably one of the first things my OH would do because he says I'm 'always on that bloody site' hehehe, but it could slip through the net easily.

Has anyone managed to find Sar? I found her thread the other day but no update. I'll look again now. Milward, I think it's called 'something's going on'.

There's been no post from her on there since 12:45 yesterday and loads of us have been on since then. Fingers crossed for her - my friend's waters went at 31 weeks and she just had the baby on Monday at 33+4 and she is perfect, little stay in scbu but breathing on her own etc - hope Sar's little one hangs in just a bit longer.

Lovealittle - I'm sure it's not you, he's probably like me - a bit freaked at the thought of the baby being there. My OH seems to think pregnancy is the sexiest thing in the world but I'm like you, I've never felt so unattractive. I'm sure you're glowing and we must all remember that it'll be worth it in the end! (and remind ourselves of that once they reach teens).
 
Excellent idea Faff, my OH wouldnt update on here as he wouldnt know where to begin bless him. Im up for this. Facebook if you use it is another option, I know other month groups use it for keeping in touch with others as well. Although would our OH's update facebook. I think in the long run text would be easier.

I suppose the situation with Sar has brought it to light really as no-one knows what is happening and whether she is ok.
 
i just had a look and no post today

im waiting for my blood results to come back no news is good news fingers crossed
 
Another one here hoping Sar is ok x x

I think it's a good idea to have text buddies too, especially as we're all getting closer now and RL could well rear it's head with christmas just around the corner! My bf doesn't even know how to turn the computer on, let alone find this website!

Evening all! Wow you've been a chatty lot today! Had 2 pages since I last posted this morning to catch up on. Soooooo where to start.....

LittleMrs I feel exactly the same as you about sex. The few times we have tried it does nothing for me and actually hurts quite a bit (and to say how much *ahem* discharge I get sometimes it feels a bit 'dry' in there sorry if tmi lol but you lot did say post anything :blush:). I feel really really guilty and in the beginning in 1st tri me and OH actually fell out quite alot about it. I think now he's just had to get used to it although he can still make snide comments about it occasionally and don't think he realises it actually hurts my feeling when he does that. Like today when we had been out and the first thing he did when he got home was get his big cushion out and turn xbox back on again. I saw him and said 'have you re-assumed the position again babes?' and he replied 'well you don't ever assume the position anymore so someones got to'. He doesn't say it nastily but it still gets to me. Honestly I do miss it a bit - the kind of pleasing my man feeling and the cuddles that come with it but hey hum. I do still try and make sure other more manual forms are still offered his way which seems to keep him satisfied in the week. Its the weekends when it feels like I'm being a cow by not putting out lol! I'm hoping it comes back after bean is here although am already dreading the first go lol!

Wow that was long lol! I've never offloaded about that before so Im so glad you lot have started talking about it!!! :flower:

Faff I think your idea to have a text buddy is fab! How do we pick? And make sure no one gets left out?!? Can I be yours lol?!?! Im hoping everything is ok with sar and her jellybean too. Maybe she's just being kept in for obs and can't post?!

abstermum Im hoping your results are good too hun.:hugs:

Fair play to all you ladies going with the eco washable nappies. To be quite honest I don't think I would be able to cope with all that extra washing! But really admire those of you taking it on. :thumbup:

In other news the OH went to bed at 9 so Ive been sat having some quality time with bean lol. He hasn't half been moving around. To amuse myself I put the sky remote on my tummy where the movement seemed to be coming from and he tried his hardest I swear to kick it off. The movement was incredible!! He kept making the ends lift up as he wiggled around and it was almost like he got frustrated at one point and booted it really hard lol!! :haha:

Maybe I should end the essay here! So glad Iv got you guys to talk to about stuff! OH, friends and family are sick of me going on about stuff now Im sure, even tho they are excited about bean too. Speaking of which they are doing my baby shower on satdy so really looking forward to a baby filled wknd!!

Many many hugs to everyone!! xxxxxxxxxx
 
I do hope she's okay. I'm happy to do facebook or text...

I'm so glad I'm not the only one sex wise. It was far too painful... I feel like its all got a lot tighter down there which is ironic seeing as we are supposed to squeeze a whole person out of there. Luckily OH is happy to settle for other options where everybody wins!! ;)
 
just went to Sar's profile page and it said last activity at 6.30am... I'm not sure what that means though. lol... trying to be detective!

According to a friend who has used this site for years, last activity is when you last signed in / visited the site.
 
I think I have missed some posts, what happened to Sar :(

Hope she is ok?

Am happy to exchange mob numbers if anyone wants a text buddy? I did this on BNB last time with my March 0-9 mummies and we were all rooting for each other in labour :rofl:
 
Jms - Sar was admitted to hospital 2 days ago with really painful BH's and when she got in was having contractions but these had stopped yesterday and she had had a steroid injection for babies lungs and was waiting for a scan yesterday. Was hoping to go home from her update yesterday but this depended on the results from her scan to check the placenta. Sar hasn't updated since the scan so unfortunately no one knows how sar and bean are.

I'm not in contact with Sar the info above was taken from a thread age started in 3rd trimester. Some-one (sorry can't remember who) posted a link earlier today on here for the thread
 
Thanks for the update, hope she is ok bless her :( xx
 
unfortunately, the last activity will show up in whatever time zone you're in... so for me sar's last update was yesterday a little past 10pm lol. but it hasn't changed since I checked at noon (it's nearly 9pm here now) today.

I think that having a text buddy is a great idea. Manda and I are text buddies since we live 10 mins from each other, but she's not on here very often. Is there anyone else in southern california (or at least pacific time zone) who would like to be text buddies?

As for sex drive... I fear I'm the opposite. OH and I used to have sex 2-3 times a week, and at the very least he would be pleasured 2 times in addition. I've been told by the doctor that I'm no longer allowed to make love to him. I still pleasure him, though, which is nice for him I'm sure, but I miss the intimacy of us being one. Last night I missed it so badly that we lay naked together and I just had him sit inside me for a while (sorry if TMI). I totally understand about the pain of sex... and I noticed beccybobeccy said it got tighter down there when she DTD. Just please be careful ladies! Many times, the pain is because your cervix is being irritated by OH's appendage and can throw you into some pretty severe contractions (I was sent to the Hospital for it the last time we made love, hence why I'm not allowed to have sex anymore) and the sperm can soften the cervix. I'm not saying not to DTD, but please be careful... our little beans need to hold on 'til January!
 
anyone else not looking pregnant from behind? We've all been showing off our bumps... but I wanted to post this pic from behind, because I found it super interesting (and a self-esteem boost) to realize that while I may look huge from the front, I've still retained my original figure! For all of those mommies feeling less than sexy, maybe taking a picture from behind to reassure yourself that you still have great- ahem- assets:dohh: and maybe it'll help you boost your feeling of confidence and sex drive!

Loving your work disney!!! I saw this on the bumps thread I think and the censored tushy caused some amusement lol!

As for the sex thing ladies I think it's best just to go with instinct really and if its hurting/feeling uncomfortable/odd then don't make yourself. I believe that if your OH really loves you he should respect your decision and your body and hopefully his sulking won't last very long lol!!! But if you have got a sex drive blooming well go for it! I know I would of mine was there lol!!! :haha:

Anyway hows everyone feeling today? Got any good plans for the wknd??? xxxx
