tlh: sounds like it could be PUPPPs. though im pretgy sure its not very common after you've already had a child.

can y'all believe we are getting so close?! im 34wks tomorrow, given doctor prediction and my past history ive got 3-4Weeks left. that is insane!! i really hope she doesn't come before 37wks cause if she needs NICU stay she'll have to be transported an hr away. ive only had one baby in the,nicu (he was nearly 40wks even) and that was awful enough and i got to stag at the,hospital while he was there. I couldn't imagine being separated like that it makes me nervous. gonna keep my legs crossed nice and tight for a while, lol.
 
ProudArmyWife: I have the same thing. I did get the support belt it was the Sarola SI belt. I actually wouldn't recommend it though. I used it for awhile and then decided to give what my midwife suggested a try. She told me to take Lecithin tablets. It's just a supplement no worry for baby and OMG it worked amazing. I've had the same pain with both other pregnancies and decided to just tough through it but after taking this stuff I wish I hadn't. You take 1 tablet 3 times a day. Tomorrow your pain will be next to nothing. Before I was taking this it was so bad I could barley walk.
 
I know, where does the time go!? Pretty soon our babies will be here, then in the blink of an eye they'll be starting school... and then, then i'll just cry!

Tlh I'm sorry that sounds miserable :hugs:

June happy birthday to your little boy :)

Anyone use a maternity support belt? My midwife suggested one for me for my excruciating hip and pelvic pain and lower bump pain. I hadn't considered it because it had been something I was able to grit my teeth and bare it but the past two days I've barely been able to walk so have been considering going to the maternity store to get one and try it out. This pain is awful :cry:

i got a maternity support belt to help with pelvic pain and hip pain but i think it made it worse..i dont even wear it because it is so uncomfortable..i dont know if i'm putting it on wrong though :haha:

In regards to my rash..i was up all night because i itched so i went to urgent care today and it is indeed poison ivy! i must've got it from doing my husband's laundry (we have poison ivy on parts of our property where he cuts grass)

they gave me a topical cream to help with itching and its not helping yet..im hoping itll be better before work tomorrow because that will be miserable sitting at work trying to not scratch all day!
 
sorry i've not posted in a while ladies :blush:

tlh, hope you get some relief before work!

proud...i'd say give it a go, can't hurt to try!

oneandtwo, wow only 3-4 wks left! crazy. I'm kinda hoping this one stays put until 39wks as i have a best friends wedding to go to on 5th july (edd is 14th) and i'll be really gutted not to get to go :), its a 3hr drive away though :wacko:

been on her hen wkend this wkend! was good fun but i did bail on them (along with her mum and sister) just before midnight when we ended up in a rammed pub with barely standing room :haha:, at that point it just felt way too personal with people squashed into me at all angles and being 7mths pregnant! she didn't mind though and all the others carried on drinking and dancing until about 3am...so glad i bailed when i did :haha:

seem to have got a cold today though...got DS to thank for that :dohh:
 
I'm having an uncomfortable day.

I bent down earlier to reach into the cupboard and got horrible pressure all in my bum! :wacko: no idea what that was!

Baby is also on one today, she is ALL over the place. Truth be told, driving me a little insane. All I want to do is go to sleep. I didn't sleep well last night so I am tired :sleep:

Got period pain back ache, and had a touch of period pain this morning :shrug: eased soon enough. Have pottered round the garden with my parents & tidied up the grass and flowers.

Hope everyone is ok! x
 
tlh97990 -oh my gosh!!! That's got to be horrible!! I had poison ivy the other year and almost went insane! Got it almost all cleared up and then stupidly used the same spoof in the shower from the night I was trying to scrub the ivy oil all off and reinfected myself! Apparently the oil can hang around on clothes etc for 2-5 years! Eventually had to get steroids to get through it. (on the bright side... if you do have to get them I'm pretty sure they're the same ones they give you if they think your baby is going to be premature to help develop the lungs.) It really is excruciating though and I have nothing but sympathy for you! I still have scars from when I got it.


Maternity belts - I thought about one. Asked my OB and she said they were better for back pain than pelvic pain. I was having trouble with achy hips/pelvis and she said it wasn't worth it....

AFM I'm not sure if this little one is turning or whatnot, but he sure is giving my internal organs and my bladder a smack today. It's strange to feel beat up INSIDE. Not inside like from the inside out to your belly, but inside-inside! If you know what I mean. :)

One of the pieces of the new sectional sofa is broken already. Have had it 3 days and it's making crazy noises when it reclines and moves in ways it really shouldn't.
 
It is horrible..I haven't had it in years and I haven't been outside much to be exposed to it but I guess I got it from a towel my hubby used. TMI but its under my boobs, on my upper inner thighs and the top of my buttcrack so not only is it annoying it is in very inconvenient locations!!!!

OMG... horrible places!!! Mine was centralized on my right arm with a few random spots around. The reinfection was bad because it was between my boobs and on my belly. Can't imagine having it on my thighs!! AND being pregnant?? I don't predict sleep. Ever.
 
Thanks for the replies on the maternity belt ladies :) after reading lots of reviews I saw that most people were using them for back pain and thankfully that's not my issue this time. Guess I should have listened a while back when my midwife tried to send me to physical therapy :haha: I've had this pain since about 15 weeks and she tried referring me to see a specialist but me being me I was stubborn and said I can handle it... Def rethinking that decision now :dohh:

Tlh sorry you have poison ivy that has to be extremely aggervating :(

Caro sorry you have a cold. Colds and pregnant suck. I'm finally starting to get over mine. I have zero energy after this week of sickness
 
I am seeing a physiotherapist with my SPD... I am so glad I went to her she has been nothing but helpful! She got me a support belt @25 bucks so worth the money as it really makes a difference. I wear it when cooking dinner or standing for long periods of time. The rest of the day I just wear a belly sock. It creates some relief but not as good as the belt. But the good thing with it is I don't have to fully remove it when I go to the bathroom etc. The physio also gave me exercises to do each day and told me to use a heat pack/ wheat bag on my lower back for pain relief. She also helped me with some ways to get in and out of bed, getting up and down off the floor etc by bracing my pubic floor muscles correctly. I would highly recommend seeing one especially one who KNOWS about pregnancy issues. I have really noticed a difference especially at night and when walking.
Anyone know of anything besides Zantac that can help with heartburn...I was taking mylanta but it gave me the runs but the past few days the Zantac isn't being as effective and I have had literally about 2 hrs sleep each night.

i dont know if it matters where it is when it itches so bad at night at least benadryl makes you sleepy so i got a little bit of sleep

Hello everyone, hope you are all doing well.

I am really pleased that this is my last 5 day week at work, and I only have 14 1/2 days left. Not that I'm counting or anything…

oneandtwo - Keeping my fingers crossed your LO stays put until at least 37 weeks

tlh97990 - Rash sounds unpleasant! Hope you can get some treatment which helps. Happy birthday to your little boy x

carol103 - sounds like a fun weekend! Hope your cold clears up quickly.

sue_88 - Sounds like a rough day, take it easy & hopefully you will feel better tomorrow x

BeccaMichelle - Sucks that the sofa is broken already - have you spoken to the retailer to get them to fix it?

libbysmum - Good to hear the physio is helping.
 
Miss Bellum - how exciting. I bet you can't wait to finish up!

I have been so lazy today it's not funny. Got up late, took the dog for a stroll and i've been sitting down ever since... well I guess I was advised to take it easy, yeah, that's it. Solid excuse!
 
Yay for only a few days left Miss! I am counting down my 8 days - 4 this week 4 next!

July - I too have been super lazy today, I got up at 10:30am :haha: then went into town for a spot of food shopping & bought a new rug. The made some soup and flapjacks at home, chilled out, then put Millie's swing together :) I'm feeling very relaxed today!

Yep, I am looking forward to some R&R (hopefully!)

Sounds like you had the kind of day I am looking forward to having. x
 
Miss Bellum - They're sending a technician out to look at it but not till the 10th which is annoying. If they can't fix it they're replace it, but honestly... at this point we're worried about keeping a sofa that broke so quickly.. we have the extended warranty on it so we're safe but I don't want to be dealing with breaking pieces for the next year.


Still feeling light-headed and woozy!! grrr guess I'm just stuck with this until I have the baby. :(

On the bright side they were able to plug the hole in my tire instead of replacing it and it was only $15
 
yay for nearly finishing work missbellum and sue! july, i'd say you're just following Dr's orders ;)

fx'ed its a simple fix becca! not long to go now until the end to get rid of the woozyness :hugs:

afm can't say the day has been restful, but its been quite fun! DS has been mostly in a fab mood, took him swimming this morning, which he loved, and lead to a nice long nap ;), then we potted at home this afternoon, i even managed to get a bit of painting done while he played (he seems to be finally getting a bit more independent in playing, fx'ed!), then he shut his foot in a CD player (opened it and put on foot in, then stood on the lid with the other), which resulted in a lot of screaming, poor bubba, and i had to endure 40mins of 'the hive' :haha:. He's fine now, although def has a sore toe :dohh:
 
caro - oh no! Poor little guy! But other than that little incident, sounds like a nice day.
