November Mummy's - It's nearly time

[alice&bump]

evening ladies! am sat waiting for mummy and daddy in law bouncing on my balla nd eating pineapple! i bought 4 earlier, they're on offer in tesco! only a quid!! i've not even had one yet and i've got heartburn, think i might get OH to do me a sweep at bedtime and then eat the other three for breakfast! hopefully katie's been waiting for her nana and nannu to come before she does! hope everyone's ok, charliebear, the backache and BH sounds very good indeed!

past couple of days i've been so so so stiff, all my joints just ache, gettin out of bed's a nightmare!

i'm worried about a big baby too, went into work earlier (its a bugger when your local tescos is where you work!) and everyone i saw was like, bloody hell you not had te baby yet (which tbh i didnt really mind) and then everyone said how huge i am and that its gona be a big baby. i'm hopin its just all water!

hope one (or all) of us has some baby action soon!! xx

Evening ladies
We have a brand spanking new car parked out the front It's gorgeous, we tried fitting the car seat, but didnt happen to well, so will be playing around tomorrow when it's lighter!! Mark and his mum have had a massive falling out, she is a total cow, and im glad he has seen the light!!
Well midwife today, i am 4/5th engaged, whatever that means, good or bad, but i never really take much notice. She said all is well, and is happy with progress. If i go over then will be offerred a sweep after 7 days, that sucks, but if it hasn't worked within 3 days of that then i will be sent in for induction.

Alice - you're going to look like a pineapple soon! I couldn't eat one - way too acidic but heck I might go and buy one if I get desperate.

Luvbuns - That's good news, I think 4/5 is very good. OH got a new car, but despite ISOFIX being 'standard' apparently you have to as for it ... He's not happy and will be gong around to complain and get it fitted.

OH just rang - he is soooo drunk. I am so glad JJ didn't decide to show up tonight. I would have been worried stupid that Jonni would attempt to drive here, or fall asleep and forget that he'd spoken to me. Or if he'd have gotten here he'd have been so hopeless as a birthing partner. I got half a conversation off him, and could hear the people in the hotel lobby in the background, so I've told him (it's like talking to a five year old) to say goodnight and go to bed.

He won't even have a hangover tommorrow - he never does.

I almost want to be mad with him for getting so drunk so close to DD, but equally he never really goes out and it was a late meeting followed by his boss's leaving do so I guess since LO didn't arrive I can let him off the hook..... eventually.

 

[Ria_Rose]

Just talked to him again, ended up in tears. Not his fault. I was just asking him about the shirt he had packed this morning ... and suddenly felt very lonely. I could hear all the people in the background laughing and having a nice time and suddenly wished I was out somewhere having a good time with my friends. He's drunk enough to be slurring his words and will probably not rememeber talking to me in the morning, but he did notice I was crying.



Still having a good cry, which is stupid because I was really enjoying my evening to myself. Guess it's just hormons ... could it a 'sign'? lol.

I mean we have moved to the other side of the country and I don't know anyone here, except OH's friend and sister. And this is only the 2nd time I've felt lonely, been doing very well really. Lots of people rang me today - including my friend from back in Lincoln (think I talked her ear off). *sigh* Maybe I should make the effort to go to the NCT mums and bumps tea morning next week.

 

[charliebear]

Big hun.

I think the NCT mums and bumps tea morning sounds like a good idea, at least you'll meet some other mummys and may even make a friend!!

 

[Ria_Rose]

Thankyou. No idea what's wrong with me, think OH having a good time without me upset me more than I thought.

Was also worried LO hadn't moved much today earlier - but luckily just as I was panicking he booted me in the side.

 

[charliebear]

These LO's do like to worry us dont they!!

The hormones are to blame!! Just think he'll be back tomorrow.

[charliebear]

Good Luck Tootsie and AC81!!!!

 

[Ria_Rose]

Good luck Tootsie and AC81.

4th bump, 9 days to go!

Well, I've decided my cervix is well and truely bolted shut, and LO is far too cozzie in there to make an appearance. I give up! He'll be in there until he's 18.

Also made the mistake of watching some birth videos online last night, for the first time since being pregnant ... to be honest I think I'd been putting off actually thinking about it ... obviously I know it's going to hurt and I know the whole 'trying to get a water melon out of a keyhole' thing, but it's quite different to watch it. I had to cross my legs when they did the episiotomy. Eeeek!

OH rang this morning, and as predicted couldn't remember talking to me, lol.

 

[charliebear]

Well, Good Morning everyone!!

Managed to get some actually more than I thought I would, up now and STILL have back ache and BH!!!
I hope they turn into something soon!! OH off to do a job, so think I'll get on with some housework and see if I can move things along a bit!!

Hope everyone is ok. x

 

[MummyJade]

Good Morning ladies,

Good luck Tootsie and AC81. thinking of you both.....
hope we are all well? I have a achy bump and feel sick......but not reading too much into it! easier said then done... i got my back pay of maternity allowance 11 weeks later! so i am already done a bit of shopping on line! and if weather holds out i will be going to town to get new camera and mobile.....
whats everyones plans for today? xxx

 

[Ria_Rose]

Morning!

Have a great time shopping. I'm pestering OH to get a video camera, but not sure we can afford it.

My plans today are tidying the house and cooking Very Berry Scones in avance of MIL visit tommorrow. Although I really can't be bothered baking properly so am cheatting - For anyone who wants to impress the In laws with very little effort or at short notice all you need to have laying around is 1 bag of scone mix, and some frozen summer fruits in the freezer. You make up the mix, shape the scones, cut in half and shove some frozen fruit in the middle, sprinkle sugar on the top, cook and then sit back and take all the credit

 

[MummyJade]

I must get my bum into gear! i have just potted around got washing sorted.... but cant be bothered with town.... but i must go or i will be kicking myself if i go into labour! lol!
loving your idea Ria..... very sneaky! Dixons have some deals on at the moment i think so try looking there... or Argos did have a sale not sure if they still do tho.... xxx
