How are you doing ttc? Hope you are ok and resting up xxxxxx

I'm gonna stick a load of stuff on ebay later, just to see how it all goes and see if I can make a few quid just to help keep us ticking over the next few weeks. Although I'm worrying I will sell stuff on ebay then wont be able to post it coz I'll go into labour haha!

i'm ok...still very sad and just trying to keep busy...thank you for asking. doing laundry today and cleaning a little...and just realized i haven't eaten yet today...need to do that. i've lost 4.5 pounds since last monday...i'm sure it's depression related and will return quickly once i'm back t normal but i do want to lose 25 pounds before getting preggers again as i'm a bit overweight.

Ttc, make sure you are eating Hun as hard as it might be. You have every right to cry, you lost your beautiful babies. Keeping you in my thoughts.

Well tomoro is my baby shower so I'm looking forward to it, it's at my mums house.. I just want my furniture now I think m&ps hav it in now but the hav now been closed cos of the bad weather

Hey Cheryl!

My df is like your dh, thinks he's doing me a favour taking the Hoover upstairs for me! He tuts at me whenever I ask him to Hoover, but then if I get a bad back or tired from doing it myself he tells me off coz I should have waited for him to do it lol!! Men lol!

I hope you get your nursery furniture soon Cheryl!!

I'm wondering if I should time my Braxton hicks, they happen so often lol! But I'm not in any pain so it's probably pointless and me just getting my hopes up that something's starting lol!

 

[MrsDuck]

Haha doing you a favour carrying the Hoover up and down the stairs xx

Cheryl I'm glad you had a nice time at lunch with your mum and dad today and I hope you get completely spoilt at your baby shower tomorrow xx

Bailey are you still getting bh, maybe it is real contractions now? xx

Nope still not pooed not sure how long stuff takes to work, I'll have some more shortly if still nothing x

 

[baileybubs]

Oh no mrs d that must be crap (excuse the pun!). Nothing working? Maybe try a hot water bottle across your back or hot shower/bath to relax your bowels.

Nah they are completely painless and are irregular these BH, sometimes they are every 5 mins, sometimes every hour or so, must just be getting more practice. It's strange that I can't wait for them to start hurting lol!

 

[baileybubs]

And I forgot to say Cheryl, so excited (and jealous!) of your shower tomorrow! I bet you can't wait!

 

[AmyB1978]

Cheryl, happy shower day!!!

MrsD, hope the meds worked and you were able to go!

Bailey, hope you are feeling okay.

Hope everyone else is doing okay!

 

[baileybubs]

Hey Amy how are you? You were awake very early again Hun! Hope you are getting some sleep.

Cheryl - I hope you have a lovely baby shower today!!

Mrs d - has anything worked to help you "go" yet? I saw your pics of your treatment on fb, that looks so painful! And did you say technically it will carry on "cooking" for another 3 weeks before it starts to heal?

Cupcake - how are you feeling today Hun?

Cath - hope you are ok after bffn, and keeping busy with your little gemz.

Tawn - are you busy being a domestic goddess as usual lol? Hope you and Maddie are ok!

Hope everyone else is well today.

AFM - well my df must have finally realised I'm pregnant and about to give birth lol, I got breakfast in bed this morning!! It was just tea and toast but the thoughts there isn't it? I think Thursday really did hit home for him and make him realise!
I've had cramps going on through the night too. But I can't say I can feel my stomach tightening when I have them? They are like strong menstrual cramps and they come and go but I wouldn't say they have a peak like you would expect a contraction to! It's very confusing, I keep thinking that surely I will KNOW when it's a real contraction though.

 

[baileybubs]

Df has now run me a bath too!!! I'm amazed!

 

[cupcake1981]

Cheryl enjoy your shower hun! I hope you are spoiled!

Bailey wow what's happened to your df?!? Still enjoy it whole you can hun! Is he off with you today?

 

[baileybubs]

No he's at work today, but turns out he was supposed to be being picked up at 8.30 and his friend was late so that's why I got made the breakfast and a bath run for me. But still at least he thought to do it whilst he had the spare time, he could have just sat watching tv or something lol!!

I really don't know what to think of these cramps. Hoping the bath might ease them a bit. I don't want to get my hopes up that something is happening but I also don't want to be ignoring it when it could be the start!! If only it was like how you see it on tv where all of a sudden the pregnant lady's waters break with no warning, or they suddenly get a massive contraction out of nowhere lol!! They don't tell you about all this guess work beforehand lol!!

 

[Tawn]

Wow Bailey! There is hope for DF yet So glad he is wising up and taking good care of you! And I know what you mean, I was just googling the other day "how will you know if you are going into labour" because us FTM don't really have a clue what it will feel like, do we?! Hope the bath helps!

Cheryl, happy shower day! Make sure to post pics of all your lovely gifts!

Cupcake, how is your sickness bug today? Feeling better?

 

[baileybubs]

Hey Tawn! what are you up to today? Any nice plans?

Yeah I feel silly asking the question "will I know it's labour?" Coz you just assume it will be obvious lol!!

 

[CherylC3]

Hey ladies :wave:

Thanks guys I'm looking forward to it today I'm just hoping not to slip out tht we are team blue..x

Aw bailey a wee bath sounds good to ease ur cramps, the other day I really struggled to get back out tho..x

 

[Tawn]

Oh I forgot you weren't telling you were team blue Cheryl! I would totally mess up and spill the beans! Lol!

Bailey, I had a friend tell me her contractions were just like period cramps the whole way through. Not what I expected at all! So now I have no idea! Lol. Plus, I never really feel my BH (I only notice if I have my hand on my tummy and feel it go tight) so have NO CLUE how many I get at all! I believe how close you are though, are you going crazy being on labour watch yet?

 

[Tawn]

Oh and to answer your question, no big plans here today! There are a couple of inches of snow on the ground, which is my perfect excuse to wrap up warm and do nothing today! Stepson is off after lunch to his grandparents house for a few hours, so I will be enjoying being able to watch some grown up TV and lounging lol!

 

[baileybubs]

Aw that sounds like the perfect plan Tawn, thats what I'm doing too coz we still have snow as well.
It is driving me bonkers being on labour watch, its really hard not to get my hopes up coz I can just imagine I will still be waiting in 3 weeks time lol. I can tell its definately leading up to it but the question is how long is this lead up?? I also have a really high pain threshold so sometimes wonder if I am playing down how much pain I am in!

Cheryl - I dont know how I would cope not letting it slip about little Leo! If you accidentally mention his name just say thats the name if its a boy and have a girls name ready too.

 

[CherylC3]

Aw I kno our names are a secret too.. So hopefully I won't slip up.x

Aw Tawn sounds like a nice wee day u hav planned...x

Bailey can u not call triage to ask about ur cramps...x

 

[baileybubs]

I mentioned them on Thursday and they just said its my body preparing for labour Cheryl. Unless they become regular and more painful I am guessing.
