how many times do I have to pooh today!
Are you having Diarrhea?
no just loose but then i was constipated for ages and seems to be no room for it down there as I feel the need often even after i go.
I thinik its all part of getting ready, baby quiet today to. Moving but not loads like normal. now I will crap myself for the next few weeks thinking everything is the start of it like last time only nothing was the start. But in all fairness this is totally different than william.
I hope feel better hon!
Sparklers, What's everyone having for dinner tonight??? 
I am making a Brown Sugar Meat Loaf Mmm!!! https://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Brown-Sugar-Meatloaf/Detail.aspx?washelp=1&rid=917286#917286
Potatoes and Crescent Rolls! Yummers!
will make a pizza since OH is out busy and i cant be arsed making a dinner just for me as its hard with toddler running about, I can make his spuds, beans and chicken but i cant eat his chicken with the bread on it so pizza for me.
Sounds Yummy!!!
got a phone call from mw I have got my iron up to 11
woop! birthing suite here I come! (hopefully).
Awesome!!!
i've just finished making caramel shortbread and i've yet to make some chocolate mint squares
last day of work tomorrow as well for 9 whole months.. yippee! 38w midwife appt next week too... lets see if little peanut has decided to drop that wee bit further and become engaged yet..
Those sound yummy!
FXed PEanut cooperates for next week!
Majm - Its just ridiculous! It makes me so p'ed off!
Well, just to make my crappy day better my dishwasher has decided to be broken. I am overly p'ed as last thing I really wanted to happen in my last few weeks of pregnancy. Granted doing dishes by hand wont kill me, but who knows when landlord will be able to get it fixed and when I have two babies for nearly 10 hours a day by myself, dishes are going to be the LAST thing I am truly worried about doing when I have free time. Which means kitchen becomes stinky .. whereas it would just take me 5 minutes to load dishwasher and I don't have to worry about it!
My house is a mess, OH spilled coffee in the hallway and carpet is stained. Tried to get it out the night it happened but didn't work. Any ideas? I have no energy, but tons to do. And baby isn't moving which is in the back of my mind right now and making me completely worried. Maybe I just need to have a rest to assure myself everything is ok in there ... yes, yes. That is what I will do before I go INSANE.
That SUCKS!!! I HATE washing dishes by hand!
I need to clean my house so bad! Almost, caught up on laundry, but dishes need to be done from tonight and I don't feel like it!
Also, I need to sweep, mop and vacuum BAD!!!
Beth wow that is really engaged and hopefully means something!
Soph, so sorry for your friend
.. and I cant believe you get to meet chunk by next weekend!!!!!
Thanks Lol I hope it is a ripening pain.
All the cooking and baking sounds yummy..
It is Ashton's 2nd birthday tomorrow and we are having a party for him on Sat morning so I have been baking loads today as well. Cant believe this time 2 yeards ago I had been in labour for like 18 hours and still had a good 8 hours to go!! All so worth it, and now I am sitting waiting for it to all kick off again-not that is ever kicked off last time with the lazy monkey having to be induced
Silas and April, I also get annoyed with MW's and how quick the appointments are. I understand they have more important things going on so need to hurry the 'textbook' pregnancies but still.
My little one is still not at all engaged .. booo.. if he/she doesnt come in the next 2 weeks or so we have to change our tickets for SA ;-(
So excited to be moving home but at the smae time, WOWEE packing up an entire house and 3 lives is very difficult when I'm so far pregant!
Hugs to all of you lovely ladies, and and GG keep us posted on the spotting.. (sorry if I missed anyone)
Awe! Happy 2nd B-day!
If they would have explained to me while I was waiting I would not have been so pissed. Then he could have just answered my questions and not just walked away like a jerk!
We are moving on post in January so I know what you mean! Gonna be CRAZY!!!
oh kelly i asked the mw about the spotting when she rang about iron - she agrees it was probs just a little irritation from the pessery and just to keep an eye out x
Glad you got to ask her about that!
Sparklers, What's everyone having for dinner tonight???
Bangers and mash here. Proper winter food
I want to do some baking, maybe I will tomorrow but the problem is that if I cook them, I scoff them. All of them
AFM: Had a really lazy day, I love being on ML. I spent most of this afternoon on the sofa practising my hypnobirthing so I am nice 'n' chilled out now.
My changing bag arrived today. Its soooooooooo lush! Its this one if anyone wants a peek:
https://shop.linandleo.com/products.asp?id=2846&type=1768&channel=26 It will look fabby with Herbert's denim pram.
I also had my first cup of RLT. I have had it for ages but couldn't take it while Herbert was not in the correct position. I have the tablets too but I think I will take it easy to start with.
The 2 week wait until EDD day has begun
What are Bangers?
I wish I could have a lazy day, but I have LOADS to do at my house!
Diaper Bag is Really Cute!!!
Is the tea good??? I wanna get some.
For dinner I am having Leek and Potato soup, I bought it for lunch but didn't have it. Also had some nice crusty baguettes too and a chocolate cake for afters. Yum.
Will have a proper read later, have had a kip this afternoon and felt pretty crapy about my friend
But thank you all for the kind words. she's a real tough cookie
I LOVE Leek & Potato Soup!!!
For you and your friend.
Sophie, I had to be induced for medical reasons (high BP) when pregnant with Ash at 39 weeks and for what its worth, it was ok as my contractions built up slowly no different than if had I gone naturally and my labour lasted 5hrs and 45 minutes, so don't think you are doomed to a hard labour chic.
If I need another induction for medical reasons, hell I will stick the pessary up my chuffer myself
as our babies well being is the most important thing of all, but seeing as its so far so good with me and Herbie, like Kelly I would rather wait, although remind me I said that when I am 40+ weeks
I was induced 1 week early with Jace and My labor was only 5 1/2 hours too!
just need somewhere to unload ; soz girls
Lost my nephew today and just feel so numb
first i loose his mum and now him its like a pattern repeating itself xxxx
Hope u girls are all ok xxxx
Oh no!
I am so sorry for your loss hon!
To DF - Sorry, didn't want to unload on facebook as would like to keep drama and specifics to a minimum on there. But this girl my OH used to be with for a while, who is kind of close to some of his family, was commenting on his cousins page to wish her a happy birthday and said something to the effect of, "we were supposed to be cousin in laws lol sad day". Pretty much just an unnecessary smart remark to the fact that my OH and her did not work out. I think it bothers me so much because all of his family can remember her name, but when they call to talk to him these days I am referred to by a lot of them as "whats her name?". I just dont get it!
Just p's me off anymore.
Wow!!! That is so rude! & Shame on her for leaving that childish comment!
Course nnot Kelly
I am worried as anyone would be that it may end in a section. But I'm not too worried about the pain and am happy to have an epi anyway!! Have heard more positive stories than negative about inductions
now I have to decide whether to tell u all the date or keep it to myself and let my bump buddy update you all!!!
You guys want to know or want a surprise ?????
OF COURSE we wanna know! LOL I am too impatient for surprises! :lol
So sorry Chella
Just back from being monitored at the hospital, BP was up again this afternoon at 120/90 so they sent me in, had a CTG and took my BP over a half hour. Happy with everything so sent me back again, baby is still breech so more bouncing needed. Got to go back to MW on saturday to be checked again, hoping that once I'm not being stressed out by my idiot boss it'll go back down again.
Oh no! I hope your appt on Saturday goes well Love!
afm......can i kill my dr now or later??????? just got back from my appt, no c section date in hand. He says my pelvis has widened ALOT so we are going to see if my body can go through having her vaginally. unfortunatly, my cervix is still thick and extremely closed. What killed me the worst, is the fact that he said if I had been dialated a little bit I would have been induced TODAY!!!! BLEH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im pissed. I seriously BEGGED him to take me today or even next week, but he wants me to give my body and baby a chance to go through labor. EFF! Im going to go walk a hundred miles now.....
I'm sorry Love! How aggravating that is!
I have a doppler and can hear heartbeat and moving loads, never felt like this with my others but this hasnt been easy pregnancy either which my other two where. I'll give em a ring over weekend I think, I go to see midwife again next week and went last week and they said all good. Think i'm just paranoid!!
I think it is normal to be paranoid!
I get paranoid when I don't feel her so I wake her up and Mark gets mad at me!
SO I went to the doctors yesterday and he completely freaked me out. He didn't mean to and he is taking good care of me but I'm very scared now.
First he talked about how my blood pressure keeps rising and asking me if I had any BP problems last time which I didn't. Then he said the ultrasound came back with the baby fine but a lot of extra fluid but didn't tell me why thats a bad thing so when I came home I googled it and now I'm totally freaked out about it. And then he thought about having me come in in only 3 days as he "wants to keep a close eye on me" but then ultimately decided id be fine for a week and to call him if I feel less movement or any bleeding or anything which scared me...and then to finish up told me next time I see him he might change my c-section date from the 16th to the 13th just because of the extra fluid and stuff so I'm pretty well going to be going crazy till this baby comes out thinking something is wrong
Why didn't he tell you more about it!?
I'm sorry Love! Can you call back and ask them?
DF - I haven't really noticed much change since baby has been engaged some people mention a massive pressure in their pelvis or their bump physically looks lower some women have increased toilet trips because baby has dropped onto their bladder, I also hear that heart burn should let up as the baby is now lower and I guess I haven't baby up in my ribs like I used to. I haven't been able to tell at all. Sometimes when I sit it feels like something is in my pelvis and sitting is squishing it.
Love
I don't know when I would know myself. She hits my bladder and low down there all of the time. She was making me ache pretty bad today down there!
Well we DTD last night after recommendation from our MW.
Afterwards i felt so much pressure like bubs was gonna pop out and found it hard to sit comftably afterwards.
This morning, still feel a little like that and have mega lower back pain.
I wonder if it actually works? Anyone ever found it got things moving?
I'm not sure if it works. Mark and I do it almost everyday still!
Bet it would not make a difference for us!

haha!
