July 2009 buddies wanted!!

Yeah, the thought of being a mom is a foreign (and traumatizing) concept to me. I cope by calling it my OH's kid :rofl: .

Me too lol, I keep saying "Your baby is kicking me/ keeping me awake etc etc"

I had the worst pains yesterday all day. I think they were stretching and I also had low dull constant cramps :( Seems to have settled down today. I assume that this is normal though and just baby growing again?! xx
 
don't worry whitelilly...i too have been getting some aches and twingy pains...think we must be stretching some more inside!
 
I get those aches/cramps on and off, too, and I've been assuming it's growing pains. I also get these weird pains (almost feels like getting bug bites) around my navel.
 
Hehe Godiva I am so doing that for a little while...Liam your baby is kicking me / keeping me awake...lovely hehe :D

Yeah I've been getting twinges and am constantly hungry so I figure baby is going through a growth spurt...maybe I'll actually start to get a bump now? :blush:
 
Hey girls, Im back, had a great weekend, got back yesterday, plenty to do for the wee man,

yay gem for being viable :cloud9:

:happydance::happydance: honey for 4d scan, mine is next week, can believe its flown in :cloud9:

WL hope your feeling better soon, Ive had them aches too :blush:

Ended up on h'pital last night with swollen ankles, hands and fingers :cry:, I rang the mat unit and they said to come straight down to rule out pre-eclampsia, blood pressure, urine etc was all ok, but Iv to take it easy for a few days, so off work till at least wed xx

Hope everyone else is well :cloud9: xx
 
Hey girls hope everyone's ok and having a great Sunday :happydance:

SJK - glad to hear everythings ok hun

Honey - oooooooooo exciting 3d scan! Yay! When I went for my gender scan the guy just switched to 3d which was a shock but lovely as we were only expecting 2d. DH and I just stared at the screen gobsmacked :cloud9:

Whitelilly - I have these feelings too, like a cross between a stitch and having eaten too much. I think its normal :hugs:

Bubs has been kicking like crazy the last week and can actually see my belly move - its amazing (and a little scary - makes everything so more "real")

I just need to sound off a bit :hissy: - hubby rang from overseas earlier and he was in a funny mood (tired I think) and we were chatting about the summer ball and how I would be very, very preggie by then and I was worried about finding something to wear and said if it was fancy dress then I probably wouldn't go and somehow we ended up falling out and he said he would try and ring back later when I stopped having a go at him and stopped wasting our "minutes" :cry: have been upset since as we only get to speak a few times a week, I know I'm being overemotional and normally I would just shrug it off and say he's just tired and its hard being in a relationship where they're away all the time but I just can't pull myself together today and I'm sat waiting for him to call back :( men - bet they don't let falling out bother them!! Does anyone else find that they get more emotional around the time you would have had PMT normally? I think thats my problem :dohh:

On a brighter note - I've moved up another box YAY! :happydance:
 
big hug hun :hugs:
i'm afraid i can't really help with the hormonal outbursts cos for some reason they seem to have evaded me for this pregnancy! however, i think from what you've said, lets be honest even if you weren't pregnant it would be hard and emotional speaking to your OH at the mo cos you feel like every minute has to count and you can't just have a laid back convo, so the fact you're emotional cos of pregnancy on top of that adds extra fuel/pressure

just make sure he knows you love him and vice versa and it'll help you get through x
 
whitelilly
i was like this all day yday,uncomfy at times, LO just must b growing :D

Thanks wishingonastar :hugs: I know I'm always more emotional when he's on tour because of the strain of missing him and being on my own - just let it get to me today :hissy: damn Sundays!!! Am thinking a bit straighter now - was :muaha: earlier!! xx
 
Hey all

I know i've not been around for ages but things have been mad and tbh i was constantly worrying something was wrong with the bay and being on here didn't help so i needed a break done me the world of good too.

I have to say i'm glad it's not just me with a "bump" mines like a bloddy mountain i feel huge but i love it! All the pain and sickness and not being able to eat meat has gone and tbh i've never felt better!

I also found out am having a little boy!! So excited i got what i wanted and so did OH! All his nursery is done and he has loads of little clothes here waiting for him just need time to hurry up a bit more although it already feels like it's flown by! Just need to buy my pram now and we'll be all sorted i feel so organised lol!

I hope everyone is ok and doing well!

Well, as you know I hadn't been feeling great so I went to the docs this afternoon and I have protein in my urine :( I have a flipping kidney infection so I am on bed rest and antibiotics! No wonder my back was killing me.

Boy, I am pooped today.

Day started out horribly. I had been meaning to mow the lawn, which had gotten really high, very fast due to all the rain + sun. Went and got gas for the mower, made sure the tank was topped off, got on and went to start it...and it wouldn't start. Sounded like the battery was dying.

Now the mower was in an odd place in the garage...I tried dragging it out (it's a riding mower). I moved it a little bit. Called some old neighbors, who said if I ever needed help, to call them. I've never jumped a mower before, so wasn't sure what to do. Anyway, they called some of my other neighbors, and a couple of the men came over and pulled out the mower, hooked it up, and jumped it for me. That did the trick and it started.

Then one of the men proceeded to cut my lawn for me, which I thought was very nice of him, especially since he'd been in the process of mowing his own lawn when he came over to help me.

Then I had some errands out on the town, had to pick up the box springs for my new mattress for the guest room. Got that home, and drug it in by myself and got it and the mattress on the guest bed.

Got through with that, and was just settling down and my dog started barking ferociously at the door. I hear a knock.

Some of my OTHER neighbors had come over to help secure the big gate on my fence that is faulty and would come open every time it stormed and the wind blew a bit. I was soooo grateful, since I couldn't budge the gate myself.

It just made me so grateful to those neighbors. And the one couple who fixed the gate, when they found out I was going to have a baby, said to come over and take my pick of their baby stuff since they weren't going to need it any longer (they'd had their last kid).

Somewhere in-between all that, I managed to get my kitchen semi-clean, and swept and mopped the floors. Spring Fever. It's on me (and I think everyone else, too).

Oh yeah, and thank goodness for nice neighbors!

So now I'm pooped. It's been a busy day. Tomorrow will be much quieter, since it's supposed to rain.
 
Morning! I wish someone would mow my lawn! It's like a jungle now.

Well, I am feeling marginally better this morning. I managed to sleep for almost 7 hours straight which is a miracle considering I was in agony. Pain still sore today but a bit better. Baby is kicking lots so I am hoping he is ok and unaffected by how rubbish mummy feels! Plus my appetite is coming back, I just had cereal and am considering a big slice of chocolate cake but it's only 8am!!! Maybe I will just have a banana!

Hi ladies,

not been on for a couple of days and thought I'd pop in to say hi!! I am feeling really good at the mo!! me and hubby seem to be getting on a little bit better - I think I might have been taking some hormones out on him!!!

Well I have a week off work!! Yay!! its soo nice to be able to pick the kids up from school and walk the dog in the day and relax!!

Spoke to Shelleylu last nite - hopefully she is moving later on this week and should be back on the internet, so will be in to chat soon!!

She seems to be suffering a little from hormones at the mo, said it feels like 1st tri again (sore bbs, feeling icky etc!!) so sending her some love and hope she picks up again soon!!

Well midwife appointment on Friday - will be 25 weeks!! Yay!! get my grant form and hopefully my Mat B1 as I still havent got it and work are starting to complain!!

well have babbled a bit now - spk soon!!
 
Hi girls - Elley baby congrats on team blue & happy birthday for last week :hugs:

WL glad yr feeling a little better, hopefully you'll be 100% soon :hugs:

Godiva you have verey nice neighbours!!!

Gem - say hi to Shelley for me & glad yr enjoying yr week off.

Think I'm gonna have to ring the hospital - I was talking to my OH earlier & all of a sudden my vision went weird - I could see loads of silver specs everywhere I looked. Worried that it could be pre eclampsia. Can't ring midwife as they're only there on Mondays :hissy:
 
EB- my vision was really funny last week... definitely get your BP checked. Mine was fine and apparently vision probs are quite common in pregnancy. xx
