Yes bailey that's the one I'm on x

 

[baileybubs]

I had a body pillow (and of course my infamous air mattress lol). It does get hard to sleep on you sides.

 

[MrsDuck]

Have you had many visitors or have you managed to keep them away?

 

[cupcake1981]

No not at all, none today except mum and she did stuff!

 

[MrsDuck]

Yay you have done well. Did you tell them you didn't want to see anyone for a few days?

 

[baileybubs]

That's great Hun well done! How did you keep them away lol!

 

[baileybubs]

Oh I forgot to tell you guys, my SIL is going to be induced on df's birthday in 4 weeks time! But I think they are now saying she's measuring too big and testing for gd. I know being induced on that day doesn't mean he will be born then but with their daughter once labour started she was only in active labour for 6 hours so our nephew could share df's birthday!

 

[MrsDuck]

Aw that will be nice for df. I can't believe how quickly her pregnancy has gone

 

[baileybubs]

Think it's because we didn't know til she was 22 weeks mrs d lol! I'm excited and nervous, think we are all just ready for him to get here safely now!

 

[MrsDuck]

I bet they are, after practically being pregnant for 2 years, she must be desperate for him to be safe in her arms

 

[baileybubs]

Yeah I bet she can't wait now. It's a shame in a way that his birthday will be so close to his sisters as she was born October too.

I'm watching Sherlock Holmes 2 (with Robert Downey Jr) and its really quite boring (as was the first actually!).

 

[MrsDuck]

Yeah that is a shame as his birthday will always be bittersweet

I didn't know they had even made a 2nd one, I wasn't keen on the first one

I know you have got large too, where did you get your maternity bras from, my normal ones are getting tight already and they are underwired ones so I know that's not good. I need good support otherwise they will be around my ankles hehe

 

[baileybubs]

To be honest I found sports bras to be the best because I just couldn't find any in my size that didn't cost an absolute fortune! Maybe try one of those Belvia bras they are supposed to be quite supportive without wires.

 

[MrsDuck]

An advert popped up on here for those bras and they weren't too expensive either. I have a couple of sports bras but I find that your boobs just get squashed to you

 

[baileybubs]

Lol thats true mine did feel a bit squashed at times. I didn't buy a maternity bra though coz my kept changing size anyway and getting bigger so I didn't mind buying more of these cheap comfort bras you can get from Asda. They weren't the best for support though really.

 

[MrsDuck]

That's a point, I'll have a look in the supermarkets next week when we are in the uk

 

[cupcake1981]

Bailey did you use the baby monitor in your Moses basket even tho Emilia was in with you?

 

[baileybubs]

No we only got it when she went in her cot coz she was always with me and at night when I slept she was right next to my head. Strangely now I don't know how I will manage without a movement sensor for our next baby in the Moses basket but we found it fine. I think coz when they are newborn you are awake with them every 2-4 hours anyway so never really in a deep sleep. Plus I'm sure movement sensors won't work in a Moses basket.
Are you keeping him with you until you go to bed in his basket?

 

[cupcake1981]

Yes we move it into our room when we go to bed. I can't sleep cos I think he's gonna stop breathing and I wouldn't know. I need to find a way of getting a monitor on him else ill never relax at night.

 

[baileybubs]

Did you end up buying a crib to fit in your room? Coz perhaps if you put the angel care sensor pad under the mattress in there and then just have him in his basket on top of there rather than on the stand that might work. Have you tried putting the sensor in the Moses basket? To see if it works?
