"knocking on buddies door"

[delmeg10]

Hello ladies!

Sorry I've been mia lately. We've been having issues with our internet, and today is the first day it's been working. Fingers crossed it stays this way.

I haven't spent any money on baby things, but I've been doing a great deal of window shopping! I'm looking for a larger diaper bag to fit everything for the LO and Luke. I'm also looking into double strollers/buggies, and a new bouncy seat. Luke had one, but he broke it, so that's something we need to replace.

My next appointment with my MW is on May 12th. The LO has been kicking up a storm lately, and I feel like I've gotten huge! It's getting harder and harder each day to get Luke in and out of his crib for nap time, and in and out of the tub for bath time. I also feel like I'm on a junk food diet. I keep craving fast food. I had 2 chalupas and nachos from Taco Bell for dinner last night, and today I had a huge burger and fries from McDonalds for lunch. I can't get enough of it! It's terrible! Anyone else having major cravings lately?

It started raining here today and looks like it's supposed to last for the next 4-5 days, so I guess we'll be staying inside for the next week.

Well, I'm glad everyone's doing alright, and can't wait to catch up!

Hey ladies, am still here, still at home and still in pain

Hope you're all okay.

Yay Sammy, 23 weeks today. Crazy xx

 

[sammynashley]

aww hun sorry to hear your still in pain. have you thought about going to the docters asking for some painkilers other than paracetamol??

[sjminimac]

I went yesterday hun, they gave me some co-codamol but said only take it if paracetamol absolutley not working because there's a slight risk to baby. Not exactly encouraging....took one yesterday, may take another in a bit but I can take 2 tablets 4 times a day so it'll be a small dosage so should be okay. Need something to take the edge off though

How are you? xx

I could live on Maccy D's at the moment as I'm really not wanting to eat anything other than cheese related products! It's not just you!

 

[sammynashley]

aww poor you, i hope the pain goes soon hun, have you tried a water bottle or anything like that. i have co-codamol but only take them when really needed.

i'malright hun had funny pains in my stomach like a constant stitch but just putting it down to stretching pains also my morning sickness has finally eased yaaaay.

seems everyone loves maccy d's atm i can't get enough of double cheese burgers and the salty chips yum yum

[sjminimac]

ooohhhh...less of the maccy d's now....i'm sad because I don't drive and am stuck at home and can't get one! Might ask hubby to bring me a quarter pounder with cheese delux meal with a side of another quarter pounder with cheese delux meal home from work
(joke by the way. or maybe not...)

 

[sammynashley]

they haven't given me a birth weight yet all they said at the scan was he's very long n measuring bigger than he should be so i have to go back on the 13th may for a growth scan, and back on the 8th july to see if my placenta has moved up. least i'll get to see him 2 more times before he's here. i have picked two names i like Caleb and Jake but not sure which one i like the most.


https://tickers.baby-gaga.com/p/dev230pb___.png

Beautiful bump Sammy!

I'm glad I'm not the only one craving fast food!

We ended up spending the entire night in the ER last night. DH has been complaining about his foot bothering him since last Friday, and when he got home from work last night, he could barely walk. I told him it's about time he goes to the hospital and finds out whats wrong with it. He agreed and we went. We got there at about 7pm, and after two x-rays, blood work, a splint, crutches, and two percocets later, we finally left at 1:30am. It was ridiculous! Turns out he has something that caused a lot of internal swelling. I don't remember what they called it.

Anyway, we finally got home and I put Luke to bed at 2am (fun, fun, fun). DH had to turn around and wake up at 6:30am for work, and I planned on sleeping in. Until the dreaded contractions started at 7am!! Ugh... I haven't had any for almost two weeks, so I should've known they were right around the corner, but why today?!? So, anyway I only got four hours of sleep and I'm still having contractions now at 11:30am. I'm sure I'll have them most of the day like I normally do, but I just wish they would give me a break today. Lol... They're only every 7-10 minutes, so I have nothing to worry about, but still. The MW constantly tells me to take some Tylenol if I start contracting. Well, I'm sorry but if Tylenol helped take away the pain of contractions, they'd give you that in the hospital instead of an epidural! Lol... Anyway, now Luke's up, and I'm miserable, and it's just a crappy day!

I hope everyone else is having a better day than I am!
