Okay a 30+3 bump shot - feel like I've ballooned in the past 1.5 weeks. I can't remember if I'm loads bigger than with DD or not. My DH thinks I'm about the same but my mum made a comment about me being really quite big



By the way this is bound to post the wrong way round - oh and sorry for the terrible slippers - was at my parents and borrowed my mums lol!

 

[TTCBean]

You look amazing Hann, your bump too!

jules, thanks for the tip. Can't really go wrong with something like that, I'll look into it!

 

[Hann12]

Thanks TTC - I feel like a big lump at the moment, I really wish I could find my bump photos that I had with DD as that might reassure me a bit!

Looking good Hann! Loving the fluffy slippers

Ha ha thanks Jules - actually surprisingly warm and comfy!!

Love the bump pic! I live in my slippers. Maybe it's a 3rd tri thing, LOL. Add me to the "no sleep" camp, I had a rough time all week. Lucky I was able to catch a full 8 hours two days in a row, I made sure to eat a little closer to bedtime (which is counterintuitive, but it makes me sleepy when I eat and I don't get heartburn...yet).

I've not had a baby shower, so I don't know what you'd get a hostess but if you're good with sewing you could make her a neck warming pillow? I have a Pin for a tutorial if you want it.

ttc, my sister in law hosted mine, too. she's a huge healthy cooking fan. so i got her an adorable apron from anthropologie

https://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/product/home-linens/25125527.jsp

and a cookbook my brother said she'd been wanting. i was nervous about the whole hostess shower gift too. does your DH know what she's interested in?

 

[TTCBean]

That is such an adorable apron! Love it! DH doesn't really know what she's into, they aren't very close and she lives across the state so I've never been in her home or hung out much to know myself. DH said she likes Sephora, but I don't really want to just get her a gift card because otherwise Sephora is pretty item-specific. I just looked at her FB page and she seems to be into organic products and stuff like that, I could make her up a gift basket with different organic beauty things maybe...

So sorry for the no sleep gals. I'm not sleeping well either. Just too uncomfortable.
Thanks for the info on the shower host gift. I was in the dark. Were going to start shopping now.
I've been feeling lately as if someone punched me in the crotch. What's up with that? Any ideas on how to make it go away?

 

[Hann12]

Sass that's probably just the baby getting bigger and getting into position, unfortunately it gets a lot more uncomfortable as the weeks go on. I remember everytime I got up after about 36/37 weeks I would think I needed the toilet, would then go and only a trickle would come out, you also feel like the head is going to drop out of you. Uncomfortable is the only way to describe it! Sorry not better news!

 

[pinktiara]

Ugh this acid reflux is killing me sleep isn't too bad besides the joint pain and the acid reflux all night lol

 

[TTCBean]

My poor hips... ugh! I must have woke up every hour last night. Whatever side I lay on my hip goes numb... Hope my boy comes on/around his due date, not after! I want to meet him SO BAD and feel normal again haha.

I was wondering, I can't remember, are there any other Clomid May babies in our group?

 

[jtink28]

i had the worst sleep i've had yet last night. or i guess you could say lack of sleep. i probably slept aroudn 3 full hours, and i have to work an 8 hour day today. only 7 more weeks of work...i can do it, i can do it...

Ah sorry to hear that jtink... You totally have my sympathies as that was the WORST having nights like that and then having just to get up and go to work. I was like a zombie... x

Mine's a gonal F baby Actually good point - are there any other IVF babies too on this thread?! x

 

[kezziek]

Such a cute bump Hann i'm very jealous. I need to do a bump photo soon to show you how massive I am, i'm really getting worried about the size of baby. I'm hoping it's all positional and things will slow down. Sleep is a nightmare so I really feel for you ladies i toss and turn and get achy hips, acid reflux, hot sweats and wee about 5-6 times. Lovely stuff. Just gotta grab those afternoon naps where you can- man I can't wait for maternity leave!

[Hann12]

With you all on the aching and no sleep.

Jtink - you are doing great, I really hope the 7 weeks goes fast for you.

Not getting indigestion (but didn't the first time either) - they say its linked to amount of hair the baby has - my DD had none so that was true for me!

Would be interesting to see if it holds true for you all! I do get reflux if I lie down soon after eating though which is less than pleasant but thankfully not often!

Had a busy day but managed to fit in a workout DVD - for any of you wanting to do something that isn't too strenuous but you still feel like you've done something the Erin o'Brien complete pregnancy workout is good. It's only 40 minutes too so not time consuming and it doesn't make you out of breath (as you shouldn't get out of breath anyway especially in tri 3). It was only £7 on amazon so a bargain! I feel more awake doing it. Not sure how late into the pregnancy I'll be doing it but its good for now.

 

[pinktiara]

i didn't have any acid reflux with my first but than again i didn't have gallbladder issues or diabetes haha this pregnancy is by far the worst I will be so happy when hes out my son is super excited he kisses my tummy all the time and talks to Mason its so sweet

 

[Hann12]

That's so sweet pink! My DD is too young to realise that anything is going on! Think it will be a shock when the baby arrives for her!

 

[Sass827]

Hann, you look so cute. The workouts are def keeping you in shape! DH bought me a baby and me workout DVD for after delivery (hint, hint) .
Love the apron jt!
My sleep took an odd turn last night. Had a hard time falling asleep, kept peeing. Finally passed out around 11:30, fully woke up at 4:30. Ugh. Went and had cereal. Felt so awake, but forced myself back to bed, only to be woken at 10 by the dog feeling exhausted! Wth?!
