March 2013 babies - we all have our beautiful babies :)

[iprettii]

hi ladies, today i've been feeling (sorry for my explanation it's the best I can do) but I've been feeling like a sore, slight burning sensation? maybe a tightening feeling on the middle towards the right of my bump. I was out and about today and felt it then a few moments ago I went downstairs to get something to eat and felt it again.

I've never felt that with my last pregnancy so this feeling is new too me. could it be braxton hicks? has anyone ever felt this before?

Quick post to share my 36 week pic - stealing DH's computer as I can't attach files on my iPhone or iPad and I dropped/broke my laptop a week ago (baby brain is getting expensive!!!). My work computer is upstairs and I'm not supposed to do stairs

Anyway, here it is...pardon the grimace and prancy pose but I was having a hard time getting the damn phone to focus and this is pic attempt 5 so the frustration is showing a bit

seeing all of these bump pics made me want to post one...i think i either look smaller or like it dropped??

Stelly: Thanks, I thought it was a bit of a daft thing to be said, even with my limited medical knowledge I knew it was very odd for them to say!

Kelly: Sorry to hear that your going to have to have your little man earlier that wanted / expected

Skeet: Yup you look to have dropped!

ipritti: Sorry no clue but hope you feeling better soon

MrsChezek: Nice bump pic too, even with the frustration! I end up doing loads in the mirror too and deleting most of them I hate how limited ipads are for uploading pics, you'd think they would be easy!

As for me, I'm feeling slightly better, only slightly but it's an improvement! Have to go to the shop to get milk and cat food and that will about do me in! Hopefully I can drag my cat back in, he was attempting to be sick and I usually throw them in the kitchen as it's moppable but decided to chuck him outside to be sick as I just couldn't face the clean up today. Then as he ran off I realised the stupid thing has eaten some plastic string that was attached to one of Chloe's hellium ballons. Just hope he gets it all up as I can't afford that vet bill!! Bloomin' stupid cat!!

Sounds possibly like round ligament pain? I got it the most when my bump started growing but I still get it occasionally now, if I move too quickly. It feels muscular and is a sharp pain around the bottom of my bump on one side, if I move suddenly. If its not this then I'm not sure sorry!!

Cute bumps ladies

Hope everyone is feel well again

My Bump has gotten smaller and hanging really low. Feeling fine, except for the continuous feeling of always wanting to go do the no.2 (toilet business) lol, but nothing comes out

 

[rose.]

I've still got the same problem Sharn!! Toilet time has become a bit less painful but I feel like I need to go constantly. Must be the pressure of our little ones. I am not sure if my bump may have dropped... Also getting less movement from my little man. He is still moving but the movements are a lot lighter. Hope this is not a sign that he's already on his way! It also took me a bit longer than normal to find him on the Doppler - ended up finding a hb in a different place. So I think he's definitely shifted! Not too worried at the moment as his hb is still good and I am still feeling movements. I've got 3 weeks left at work, and after that he is welcome to come at any time but not quite yet

For those of you with iPads/iPhones wanting to upload pics to here etc, you can do it using the app from photobucket. Just save whichever pic it is that you want in there and copy the img code that it gives you into your post, easy I've got an iPad and do it that way all the time.

AFM - I keep cramping and getting excited that he's coming only for it all to go off again I've got a feeling this is how it will be for he next few weeks, can't see him arriving any time soon, I think he's just teasing me!

 

[skeet9924]

Thanks ladies!! I'm glad you noticed I dropped!! I feel like have but people at work keep saying that i havent.

Sharn- I'm getting the same feeling!! I've actually been able to go a little bit the past few days and its been a nice break for me since I've been constipated the entire pregnancy. Sometimes though its just a false alarm!!

rose- i hope your lo stays in long enough for you to finish work!! I got a doctors note to finish as of this friday..I was sick of doing my hour commute in yucky weather!! I still would like the lo to stay put a few more weeks..I have a lot of stuff around the house I want to do still!

baby- thanks for the tip!! I had photobucket and deleted it ..i just didnt understand how to use it....might have to try again

 

[anna1986]

Been losing bits of my plug all day each time i go to the toilet theres a little when i wipe. And im now havin some pain. Is more constant rather than comin and going so hopefully its nothing!

Skeet - you definitely dropped! I hope to upload and put together my last 3 belly profiles tomorrow or Tuesday to see if there's a noticeable change in my belly. So cool to see! Thx for sharing

Kte - glad ur feeling better! Hope ur cat is ok

Baby_maybe - thx for the photobucket tip! I've used it to upload larger files here on my desktop but didn't think to look for a app!


So anyone else suffering from lightning bolts in their hoo ha?? Every night starting at about 8pm it starts and continues for 3-4 hours. It's SO painful! Shifting positions doesn't help much either...sometimes it makes my leg go momentarily numb too. The pains change from inner thighs, to hip flexors, to down outside of my leg or down my buttocks. My understanding is that's its because she's sitting super low in my pelvis. She tends to be quite active then too with a lot of kicking at my ribs too...it's the only time I ever wish for this pregnancy to be over Any advice??

 

[MrsChezek]

Oops missed the last page of posts!
Glad you had a nice shower Kelly! Great belly pic!

Anna - what would happen if you go into labor before your scheduled c sec? They just move it up? I'm hoping my LO holds out for 4 more days! Then I don't mind her coming...though 38 weeks would be nicer! FX for you

 

[iprettii]

Hi Anna, Keep us posted, maybe you'll be ready before your c section date.


Hello ladies!
Just a quick update, walking UP the stairs is painful.. well not painful but it's very uncomfortable, I feel like my lady bits will fall out from all the pressure while going up the stairs.
My baby bag is all packed up and ready, but my things are...... lol they're not packed yet, not fully, I just need to pack something comfy to go home in.
I don't think i've dropped yet and I can't believe I have 3 weeks to go.

they said if i went in in labour id be given a choice of an emergency section although a calm one or to go for a breech natural delivery.

well have been having stomach ache n cramps off n on all night. still in quite a bit of pain this morning and baby is quiet so think i may ring the labour ward in a bit see what they say. im sure all is ok though n ill just end up lookin silly again!

My 36+5 bump!

Excuse the mess I am having a bad day, as you can tell with all the clothes behind me and what I'm wearing! I'm a little fed up everything is making me look mahossive.
I just being a nark haha

Xx

 

[paula181]

I would ring the labour ward too, maybe your in the stages of labour! As you said you never went to your due date with your DD?

God luck Hun

Xx

 

[Lou1234]

Anna ring the labour ward and speak to them about it. Always better to just call and see what they say.

Paula I have those mornings as well. Not a lot feels right and in my case I just want to stamp my feet and cry! Some of the tops I was wearing a few weeks ago now don't fully cover bump so don't wear those anymore.

I have a core wardrobe now of about 3-4 tops that fit fine and they get matched with jeans or black trousers! Once I'm off work next week I'll probably just live in leggings and a t-shirt when I'm at home!
