Aw mrs d have you taken a picture of your bloaty (twin) bump?! Start early as when you're almost 38 weeks you won't remember what it was like to have a waist!

I made the most amazing mac and cheese with shrooms and bacon for dinner! Carb coma alert!

 

[MrsDuck]

Haha twin

No I haven't taken any pics yet. Last time we put a white sheet up, I stood naked and shone a bright torch on me casting a full body shadow and I did it every week from 6-12 but then had the mmc so I've sort of lost enthusiasm to do it again maybe I should?

Oooh that sounds yummy, did you make extra to freeze?

 

[cupcake1981]

Yeah do it defo. I have done with each pregnancy. This one is different remember That sounds very artistic, wishing I'd had some nice preggo pictures done to remember my bump.

Well there are left overs but not too sure how it'll freeze tbh, one of us will have it for tea tomorrow.

 

[cathgibbs]

Mrsd start the pics hun!!! Soo excited to see them progress!

Cupcake is hubby going back to work tomorrow ? Xxx

 

[cupcake1981]

Yes he is! I love my hubby but him being gone between 8 and 5 is a lot of clearing up for me to do....altho he did put the Hoover round today and make up the moses stand.

Cath did the pink cm come to anything?

 

[cathgibbs]

Haha awww bless him. They dont realise how much mess they make do they lol

I had a load if evaps last night but af is on her way sadly but onwards and upwards! !!

Morning everyone! Xxxx

 

[baileybubs]

Is it deffo AF Hun? I'm still crossing everything that they aren't evaps!!

Well Emilia is deffo going through this 4 month sleep regression. She's waking up every 1-2 hours. All I have to do most of the time is put her dummy back in and she goes back to sleep but it means all I get is broken sleep!
She also woke at 9pm really screaming like she'd had a nightmare or something bless her.

My back is much better too, but these tablets proper make me light headed and dizzy! No driving for me!

How are you feeling today cath?

What's everyone up to today?

 

[MrsDuck]

Morning everyone

Cath evaps are nasty, I'm so sorry the witch is on her way

Bailey I'm glad the pills Are working and your back feels better. Aw poor Emilia having nightmares. I hope you both have a better sleep tonight

Cupcake enjoy your relaxing day at home

Cheryl yay for Leo sleeping well

Sath don't work too hard at work

Amy I hope all is goo with you and Emily

 

[cupcake1981]

Aw bailey poor you and Emilia, she was always such a good sleeper to. Sure shell go back to that soon. What painkillers are you on? They sound great! Did you get a nap yesterday?

Cath boo to evaps but like bailey said are you sure that's what they are?

Mrs d did you find something to wear this morning for work with your bloaty bump?

I've just woken up ( sorry bailey, you'll get me back very soon tho when I have a newborn!), now i had too much sleep and can't be bothered doing anything!

 

[cathgibbs]

Yay cupcake for getting up late!! Put your feet up and chill out hun, watch random crap on TV and relax :-D

Awww Bailey bless poor Emilia for her little nightmare poor thing!! Glad the tabs are working a lil bit!!

MrsD How you feeling??

Well I think they were evaps, temp was below coverline which is normally a bad sign but no AF?!?

Here are the EVAPS - which stand for - Evil Very Annoying Pointless Sticks!! xxx

 

[cupcake1981]

I can't see anything on those sticks Hun pic isn't clear enough. Temp did take a dive today but weird no AF yet......keep those fingers crossed!

 

[baileybubs]

I'm on my phone cath so I can't see anything on them either but I'll load up the laptop.

No I didn't get a nap yesterday cupcake, didn't get chance! Df slept on the sofa last night coz he played on his Xbox til 1.30am then didn't want to disturb me and Emilia. When I asked why he stayed up so late (coz if he says it was 1.30 it was more likely 2.30!) and he said he wasn't tired. Well......that was like holding a match to a stick if dynamite wasn't it lol?! Lots of things along the lines of "so I'm ALWAYS tired coz I get up with our daughter all the time and yet you can manage to stay up til the wee hours playing Xbox coz you AREN'T TIRED??!" Lol! Don't think he knew what hit him! I said telling him he wasn't tired was just rubbing salt in the wound seen as I'm always tired. Idiot. So I think he's realised that I'm a bit sleep deprived lol!
It's funny coz she only wakes briefly and goes back to sleep but it's every hour from 2am and then wide awake at 5.30am so it's the broken sleep that's my problem. But he just doesn't hear her when she's stirring.

Oh and my ice packs still haven't come. But my back is still getting better which is good.

Cupcake are you having a lazy day today and resting for a change?!

Sath how are you today Hun? Glad you enjoyed Lone Ranger after all!

Mrs d any sign of your letter for an early scan Hun?

Cheryl how's the weaning coming along?

Amy hi there I know you'll read this at some point and I hope you are ok x

 

[cupcake1981]

Oh your df really doesn't help himself does he!!!! When is his day off this week? I think he needs a 'day in the life of bailey' experience! Then he'll know what it's like to be tired. Keep meaning to ask you if you took your engagement ring back in the end after the weekend?

Rubbish about those ice packs, chances are your back will be better by the time they come but at least you have them ready for if it comes back? Are they the ones that can be made hot to? At least you can use for AF pains then.

Sorry to say this but I feel awful for sleeping so long, need to start setting an alarm on days I don't have plans. When I woke up I was so dizzy from not eating or drinking for so long. Still have jobs to do but I just feel the need to veg today!

I was just looking at my antenatal notes from yesterday and my FH was 36 yesterday, at 37+5. Is this because he's 3/5 engaged and dropped down? He's still plotting on the average line. Im also a bit cross cos we discussed my birth plan last appointment, but all she's put in my notes is a tick by each box saying we've discussed things, nothing about my preferences etc!

 

[baileybubs]

I get what you mean about sleeping too long (I can just about remember lol!). You just for want to do anything do you? I feel the same sometimes after a nap.

Yeah they are they exact ice packs you gave me a link to, it's the same seller but just their eBay site which was slightly cheaper lol! So they will deffo still get used.

He sets himself up for these things my df doesn't he? I did put my ring back on the next day actually, I hate staying mad at him, I always think life's too short, but that's how he ends up getting away with murder lol!

I'm just watching midwives episode 1 and it made me cry, in a good way! Just completely took me back to having Emilia and hearing her first cries (I'm tearing up just thinking of it!) it's such an amazing thing! I shouldn't watch this really coz it's making me broody again lol!

 

[cupcake1981]

Aw I haven't watched those Midwives shows yet, someone said not to. I'd like to. What do you think?

I'm working my way through my Netflix today, did you get it yet? I'm hoping I might get a burst of energy later on and get a job done!

I was really lucky, the company that sells those ice packs is a 10 min drive from where I live so I went and collected them. Prob woulda been quicker for be to collect and send to you lol!

I had to take my rings off about a month ago. I miss them so much. I have a plain silver band on my ring finger that looks like a wedding ring but it's not the same

 

[baileybubs]

I say no don't watch it Hun, it's lovely to watch earlier in pregnancy but I think when you are so close some parts could be more scary for you, not that it is a scary experience Hun it's just the unexpected because its your first. I watched an OBEM the day before I went into hospital before having her and it really got me freaked!
So I say wait and watch them once lbcc is here.

No I still haven't got Netflix but I had a shock this morning and my gas payments have gone up to £149 a month!!! So trying not to spend money lol! But might just allow myself that, it's not exactly much is it?

I think I had to take my rings off at about 36 weeks, my hands were all pudgy lol! I was back in them just a couple of days after she was born though.

I wouldn't even bother doing any jobs Hun you are allowed to do nothing you know, you are pretty much 9 months pregnant Hun!

 

[cupcake1981]

Yeah ill avoid it I think. Im in an ok place at the moment about the birth etc and I don't want to go back to fear! Altho I'm expecting it to be horrendous lol!

£149 a month! Just for gas?!? That can't be right?!

I'm hoping I unswell quickly so I can put them back on.

I just feel so guilty being lazy when there's stuff to do.

I've decided we need to either replace or get our hallway carpet cleaned. Is it bad to replace the carpet so close to having a new born in the house?

 

[baileybubs]

We somehow paid just £35 a month for the first 18 months we lived here (I knew we should have been paying more but at the time was feigning ignorance lol) so we owe them £500 now, that's why it's so much. I'm gonna hopefully just pay that off next month from savings but that's annoying coz it feels like all we do us save for it to we spent on something else (ie not a deposit for the mortgage or the wedding which we are trying to save for!).

I wouldn't think having a new carpet would be a problem as long as dh gives a good Hoover afterwards.

And don't worry Hun I'm sure your labour won't be horrendous
