July 2009 buddies wanted!!

[Elliebank]

Yeah, that's it, I'll be having lots of, um, curry.

 

[maybethistime]

hehe G

I really cant stand curry so im goinna have to try lots of the laying down jogging lol

 

[wishingonastar]

sorry i've completely forgotten godiva...remind me of the timeline of your OH returning? he's arriving home soon isn't he? how long for?

well my OH has said a total big NO to laying down jogging...

 

[whitelilly]

I would quite like to try the laying down jogging now that I am full term on Sat- however, with baby being breech I'd rather not induce labour! I would shit myself if the chord came out first or something!

Guess what? I don't have one stretchmark BUT I now have burst blood vessels around my tummy button cas bambino stretching me so much with his breechness... not fair!!!

I am shattered now- been out since 10am this morning, B&Q, Sainsbury's, doing washing etc. Got my shorts on now, vest on, bra off and I am going to slob with my bog fat feet up on the couch!!! xx

[geogem]

OMG I wish we had rain!! It hit 30 degrees here this afternoon and they reckon its only gonna get hotter!! bin sat with my feet in a bowl of cold water for the past hour!! #

Well nursery is finished, I've just gotta put all of Blakes clothes in there then all sorted!! looks amazing.

Hubby is currently fitting the hall, stairs and landing carpet we got today, bargain at £65 for an end of roll piece that was just the right size and colour!! then all I need to do is change my bedroom round so the swinging crib fits in there better, which I think I will get him to do tomorrow, then all ready!! how exciting!!

Godiva, I agree - I think you should get some serious horizontal excercise done!

Oh and by the way - my cankles are back with a vengeance!! bring on the blobby!!

 

[SJK]

girls Im home, I got the sweep and Im 1cm dilated, so if nothing happens, Ive to go back and see her on friday am

 

[Elliebank]

Woo hoo SJK!!! How was the sweep?

Can't wait to see pics of the nursery Gem!!

 

[geogem]

will get the nursery packed away and hoovered tonight and will hopefully put some piccies on tomorrow - If I can find my camera cable!!

 

[shelleylu]

Hoe exciting SJK! I agree - how was it? did it hurt?

Good news about the nursery Gem - post some pics asap!

I have suffered today big time. Went to B'ham for a walk around with OH and spent most of the afternoon there. It was sooooo hot and horrible. Just sat while OH had his hair vut on the most uncomfy chair for 45 mins and come out in agony.
I swear Ive nearly been in tears. The pain is in my bum(sorry!) and inside of me - like my cervix is badly brusied. Keep having these awful shooting pains. It feels like something might be trying to start happening. I have a bad head, swollen all over and a paain in my ass - YES EVERYONE - I AM LOVING BEING PREGNANT - AND NO - I HAVE NO IDEA WHEN SHE'S COMING OUT - NOW SOD THE HELL OFF!

Ah, I wish I could have said that today about a hundred times!!!!

Girls I gotta go and cry a bit. I feel like Im leaking a bit too - is it me sweating? Anyone else getting the same thing? Seems to be really bad today....???

 

[Elliebank]

Shelley

Leaking from where? xx

 

[Twiglet]

Yay SJK

Aww Shelley sending you big !

Well I have pains in my woowoo, inside of my legs and it shotty and stabby! Not fun...have had it before though so dont think its anything! Today for once I do not want her to come out as I am not pushing a bubba out in this weather.

 

[geogem]

Oh shelley - poor you. I hope for your sake something does happen soon as I know how low you are feeling, will just be nice for you to meet your little girl and get it over with!!

dunno about leaking as such but I have had a massive increase in discharge these past couple of days!! sorry if tmi but just feel constantly damp down there, makes me feel kinda icky and dirty!!

 

[Twiglet]

Increase in discharge too! Am bathing twice a day at the moment as I feel so dirty oh the lovely business of pregnancy eh?

 

[maybethistime]

Oh SJK Im so happy for u.. wat these sweeps like ne ways im so talking to me midwife about one on monday if I dont start by my self. I spent the afternoon sleeping only got up 2 make Dh tea how good am I. It aint as hot as it was its hummind now. but at least im not sweating like I was before.

I know wat u mean twig bout not wanting to have her in this weather? silly question tho when we take her out in her pram i leave the foot muff at home right cos im sure she would swear like god knows bless her.

I am contumplating going in2 uni 2mo If i get soo board lol so i can see what is happening on here and oh yeah do some work cough cough lol.

If i dont keep me updated kids and i wont forget ya due dates well Ill try not to ne ways haha any movements I want to know no matter the time lol

 

[Sarah+]

OMG! July! Finally here!

We're only days away from due dates....

I must log on more (and kick hubby off computer more) as it takes too long to catch up on all the chatter. We're up to our 400th page!

Well, had ob-gyn on Tues. Thank goodness LO's growth has nearly stopped. Only just 8lbs now (and he was 7.8 two weeks ago). So not such a giant baby after all. Baby is engaged - "as far as he can go before birth" according to dr, didn't get any numbers like you girls seem to. Had my strep-B swab (only vaginal, not the other... thank goodness). He didn't do an internal to see if I was dialated or anything. All looked good for bubs.

I had to laugh at all this talk over the heat wave. It's mid-30s and 95% humidity for four months of the year here! But I guess we're set up for it with aircon in houses etc. which the UK isn't so much, this weather not being the norm. Make the most of shopping centres and movie theatres (if you can stand to sit still for that long), with their free aircon. Take care girls.


Love the nursery Shelley. Can't wait to see yours Gem.

Congrats on the sweep SKJ..... fingers crossed. Well done on your degree Twig.

Glad to hear it's not just me with the weird dreams and feeling that a bowling ball is trying to push it's way out while I walk. The uncomfy, downright painful, I can't sleep, get him outta me stage is def here now. I ignore the doorbell too. I figure anyone I would want to see would ring first!

My 30th b'day is only 11 days away... kinda seems insignificant with another event only 16 days away....

Wishing everyone a great day!

I thought my waters broke today.... I had a bit of a 'gush'.... and looked down to see a puddle of water. I was overcome by panic (nice to know I can stay calm, lol) and started grabbing at my legs to see what was going on.... Shortly after felt rather embarassed as it was just a rather large gush of mucus and the 'puddle' was, well water..... as I was in the bathroom and had had a shower not long ago. Felt a little silly!

 

[Elliebank]

Sarah!! I think I will panic when my waters break!!!

You never know - you could be in labour on yr 30th birthday!!
