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

Katy - last time I was pg my littlest one who was almost 3 at the time decided running away from me all the time was a great game! One of the times she shot out of the childminders and down onto the main road before I got to her, luckily she didn't go off the pavement but heart in mouth was an udrrstatement!

I'm keeping my DH up at night too, mainly with all the moving I do. I've offered to sleep on the sofa so he can get a decent nights sleep but he's not having it. I think I turn about every 20-30 minutes due to hip pain, add to that getting up for the toilet at least twice neither of us are getting a lot of sleep right now.

Baby_maybe - that's my biggest fear, that she runs out into the road. They always like to keep us on our toes, don't they!

Hi ladies!! I'm really behind since I've been away all weekend! I'm officially done work!!! We went to the hospital this weekend to visit oh nana.. She has cancer and currently the drs are unsure what to do with her and how to treat her as they want to make sure what ever she gets isn't going to make her worse.. Currently she has it set in her head that she has another year.. She's such a fighter that you never know.. I'm really hoping that this lo comes on time or a little early so that we can take him down to see her on Easter.

So sorry to hear of those suffering hip pain.. I'm just beginning to feel more and more pregnancy aches by the day... Sleeping at the cottage this weekend gave me horrible hip pain.. And sleeping in a double bed proved to be difficult when oh and I are used to a king.. He said I kept him up most of the night from tossing and turning.

Sleet - congrats on finishing work! Hope u get to hav a rest now.
And your oh's nana sounds like a fighter, will b praying for u that she gets to c her great grandson.

Gorgeous Anna!

I was keeping dh up all night as well. About 2.5 weeks ago I caught a bug that I still cannot get rid of and was so sick and so tired and stressed from not being able to sleep well that he started sleeping in our guest room to allow both of us to sleep. Doesn't make much of a difference to me as I still average maybe 4 hrs a night but I don't have the guilt over waking him up too anymore. It certainly helps him sleep better which is good-one of us ought to be sleeping!


Athena - I agree, its the guilt of keeping oh's awake, that's actually worse than not sleeping! As he has to get up at half 5, and I know I can rest during the day.


katyblot:Share your frustration, my daughter has also decided that running is the best thing ever - even though for months she has known Mummy can't run! Glad she is feeling better from the chickenpox :thumbup:


AFM: MW tomorrow - must must must remember to ask about hospital tours! I went out today and bought 2 sleepuits with a matching hat and 3 baby vests all ready for baby's hospital bag. :happydance: Surrounded by sick people again at work, hope they don't pass it on, only 15 working days left for me and (this bit sounds bliss) only 2 more Monday's at work for a while after today!

Kte - why do they do it to us, so not perfect timing, to decide to start running now!
Hope yr last 2 weeks at work r ok, and u don't catch the sickness!


Anna - thank u for putting up the pics of William! He's adorable!:baby:


And to everyone, hope we get some restful sleep soon, before Lo's start arriving!
 
He's gorgeous Anna!!!! :kiss:

I'm still sleeping mostly alright...just get up to pee 4-6 times a night! But I seem to fall back asleep ok so I'm thankful. Once in a while I get a restless night but that's definitely not the norm :flower: My DH seems to sleep through my getting up to pee so thank goodness! I finished my final loads of baby laundry yesterday so I'm already to start packing my hospital bag. Exciting! :happydance:
 
Yeah, Im probably up 4-6 times to pee too, I think dh sleeps through it most of the time. Plus my 15 month old is still usually up once a night, thouh my dh sees to him since he figures I need my rest (I'm very lucky :cloud9:)
 
Hi ladies how are you all

I can't believe that we all should have our babies in the next few weeks :dance:

I can't wait to meet this little fella

Xx
 
Hi ladies, hope everyone is doing well! :)

My MW appointment went well, baby is 4/5 above brim and measuring pretty good :)
 
Hi all.

Hope everyone is well.

I left work on Thurs as took Friday as holiday and as of yesterday I'm on maternity leave. I'm making sure I have something to do each day. Yesterday was cupboard cleaning and today was lunch with a friend. Ironing and a hair cut are my tasks for later this week! Exciting stuff!

Can't believe I have 10 days until my due date! I'll be holding my baby in 3-4 weeks at the latest!
 
sharn: Glad your MW appointment went well :flower:

Lou1234: Congrats on starting your leave! Sounds like a good plan to have a plan - - - if that makes sense!

AFM: MW appointment went well. Although she said she wasn't on holiday last time so I was a bit confused as that's what the stand in and student said. Why lie?! If she can't be there fine. Anywho, she was back which I was glad of. Little miss was a gem in the room again. We have been booked in for a scan though on Thursday as she can't tell if baby is breech or not and I get all sorts of movements so it's hard to say. All will be revealed on Thursday I guess.
 
hey ladies, congrats to all those on Mat leave, i just started mine today, it feels so good!! i'm too tired to take on the task of chores today but tomorrow i'll get started. I think i've been losing my mucus plug, over the past week i've had a lot of gross discharge, last night and this morning i had huge globs of it yuck!
 
Yeah looks like a lot of us are working towards mat leave!

I've spent today doing baby laundry and organizing my crazy chaotic nursery! Every time I start to get organized I get more stuff! I plan on putting together my hospital bag this week too! Only problem is I can only do little bits at a time because my back is killing me!! Plus I've been dealing with a sick pup :( for the past 2 days she's been throwing up and had the runs everywhere!! She had me up at 5am this morning cleaning stuff up.. I finally caved and gave her gravol tonight as I'm sick of cleaning up after her.. I hope it works!! I can't figure out what she's getting into to make her sick
 
Just 8 more working days for me, I can't wait, getting up in the morning is just getting harder and harder every day!
 
13 more days for me! :haha:

I'm going all kind of hormonal and crazy today, I have been for last few days. My cousin had her little girl yesterday and I am just sick of the comments I am getting from family and even her on fb - I dunno she is just coming across all tacky to me and it's annoying and I know I just need to chill out and ignore it, think I will avoid fb at the mo! It still doesn't stop family saying stuff like 'I bet it makes you more excited to meet your baby seeing pics of 'x''s baby. Nope actually, I'm concentrating on my own pregnancy and birth, her's has sod all to do with mine so F-off!! :grr: See, hormones I know! :wacko: :roll:
 
Aw that must be frustrating kt! Don't they realise that comments like that only make us even more impatient!! I guess they are just trying to make small talk though.
 
They are which is why I am trying to keep my cool about it. :cool: Needed a mini vent on here so I can move on :haha:
 
Lol kte- I get those hormones!! I'm getting impatient for my lo.. And my friend having hers next week makes me impatient .. But I really do want a march baby so its probably a good thing I'm not having my lo yet..
 
I can't believe I have single digits left! 9 days! It doesn't seem long ago when I went from 100+ days to double digits.

My little task for today was a trip to Tesco. I'm off to the cinema later. Going to a showing just after 6 as don't think I'll stay awake to see the 8.40 showing!

I want to get my hair cut tomorrow but I'm worried I'll get really uncomfortable in the chair. I have a lot of hair so I tend to be in there for a while :haha:
 
Hi Ladies! :hi:

Good to see everyone is hanging in there with the aches and pains and being all kinds of productive. Unless you call baking a cake productive, I feel like I'm just floating through my days. My head is so fuzzy that I can't remember what I set out to do and I lose my to do lists and it's a big mess! I'm just so tired…even though I get at least 8 hours of 'sleep' time (I put that in quotes cause it's disrupted sleep with peeing, rearranging, DH waking me sleep talking, etc).

Had another NST on Monday and the baby seems nice and cozy and I only had like 1 contraction during the 20 min test. Of course now that I've reached term, everything has calmed down and with my luck I'll be late!!! :dohh: But he did another quick scan to make sure she's still head down and she is…she's no longer sunny side up so that's good…though of course she can turn many more times and even during labor…I just can't wait to have her out here in my arms!

Kte - good luck on your scan tomorrow! FX :hugs: And sorry your fb world is frustrating you…I sort of feel the pain as people keep asking "when are you due again" every day…I feel like I should just post a status each day that says "I'm not due until March 7th and still pregnant. Thank you." People are so mindless sometimes!!!! :wacko: Vent away :hugs:

heaveneats - how exciting about losing your mucous plug! I lost a couple bits of it several weeks ago but haven't had any such discharge since…so I think it's been rebuilt shut for now :shrug:

Lou - I'm so jealous you get to go to the cinema! My LO goes nuts in the theaters as the volume here is always set so high. I just end up feeling bad and covering my tummy with my arms and purse trying to muffle the sounds for her but it's not enjoyable so I stopped a couple months ago :nope: Hope you have a great time!
 
mrschezek- yeah i am so excited but i read that it grows back so who knows if i have even really 'lost' it

hope all is going well for you ladies. I totally sympathize with those of you dealing with family and friends pestering for the baby to be here. I know i get texts daily of 'ow are you feeling?' 'any news?' 'can you do anything to induce labor?' holy crap people take a pill and wait, it's better the longer she's in there! The only one who isn't impatient is OH because he's still so nervous about having a baby, he tells her to stay in there hehe
 
Hi ladies.

Hope everyone is doing well!!! I just started mat lave this week. Am trying to keep somewhat busy during the day as I find it a bit boring though I'm also trying to take advantage as I know i won't have much time for lounging within the next few weeks!!!
With about one week to go til due date, I find I am extremely impatient. I read into every cramp and bh contraction hoping its the real deal. Just can't wait to meet my little boy!!! OB offered a sweep yesterday though but I chickened out? Next apt is Monday so maybe I'll go for it then . I just hope LO is not late as I don't think I can take the waiting!!!

Lou- I think we share the same due date! :)
