October/November Conkers 2021***

My first was 9 days late so not imagining this one will come any earlier haha! Gonna give it a good go tho!!

how interesting about the food @Reiko_ctu is there anything thsy is tasting ok?

yes these last few weeks of pregnancy is unbearable isn’t it! I’ve had a facial and my hair done so now feel ready for baby to be here! Anyone struggling with going for a poo? I’m on the toilet for hours every night! I dread nighttime!!
 
I had my follow up growth scan today. Baby dropped from 42nd percentile last scan to 22nd percentile this scan. She’s weighing in at 3 lb 12 oz and I’m 32 weeks today. They said anything above 10th is not a concern though. I go back in 4 weeks at 36wks and at that point will get weekly ultrasounds and non stress tests until she’s born.

@sil what a fab scan pic. Sounds like she is doing OK then but you will need some small baby clothes
 
@daniyaaq fingers crossed that they will induce a 37 weeks! I definitely don’t feel cool as a cucumber!!!! Haha! I’m such a mixed bag of emotions

@Reiko_ctu I’m so sorry about the whole taste and smell thing! Can you get a sweep any earlier!?

@angie90 firstly happy 38 weeks! And secondly yay to finishing work!!! Great news you have a plan in place! Hopefully you won’t make the section date and he arrives early enough for a VBAC!
 
@sil what a cute scan picture of baby girls little face. Sounds like she is just going to be a little dot! Sounds like a busy few weeks towards the end but at least they will be keeping a close eye on her!
 
Wow! We already have babies born! Catching up here today. It’s been SUCH a busy pregnancy for me. We sold our home and moved which has left me a little depressed but starting to feel better! I go in for a 34 week scan next week!

@sil What an adorable face pic of baby!!!! Love it
 
@playgirl666 Good luck, can’t wait for pictures

@sil sorry baby dropped in centile but glad they not to concerned and they are keeping an eye on both of you, the scan picture bless

@Reiko_ctu How weird with the taste and smell it must be awful for you, sorry you had such a tough time with it all

@angie90 so jealous you finished worked, hope you get some time to relax and enjoy the last couple weeks.. I worked out I have 19 and half working days left of work.. not that I’m counting lol

@Mummy2Corban Hope your doing ok

@RachRav Hope your doing well and the move went all to plan, exciting times to see baby next week

AFM- I wish these pregnancy headaches would do one.. I wake up in the night with them and they last all morning.. sometimes disappear on there own and other times I have to take paracetamol to shift them.. had them since 15 weeks on and off, been keeping an eye out for swelling and all my midwife appointments she not been concerned with them but told me to keep an eye for certain symptoms start to develop
 
Well I started feeling like I had a cold last night and my lateral flow is positive this morning. Just what I need.

Oh shoot. That’s awful. Praying your vaccine gives protection for you and baby xx. I’m not vaccinated and I’m at the emergency tonight with a croupy kid and now I’m terrified of catching it.
 
@RachRav lovely to hear from you. Sorry you’ve been a bit depressed but I’m pleased to hear your starting to feel a bit better. How’s pregnancy been? Let us know how your scan goes next week.

@Penguin20 headaches suck! Sorry you’ve been having to deal with them since 15 weeks. Are headaches a sign of pre eclampsia?! Hopefully they don’t develops into anything serious. When do you see your midwife next?

@topazicatzbet oh no! Sorry to hear this lovely! I’m hoping that it’s just a mild case. How have the boys been?

@playgirl666 thinking of you! Hoping you get to go in early and things get started and baby boy is hear real soon! Goodluck!
 
Thanks everyone. Yeah I'm double vaccinated so hoping that helps and I dont get too bad. The kids seem OK, also just like a bad cold.
I ve had to rearrange all my midwife and pre op appointments so hopefully it won't push anything back and baby stays safe inside and we are clear before he arrives.
 
@topazicatzbet I get confused with all the changes but are you 10 days in isolation from first symptoms or test? When was your pre op? And midwife?

@Weemcb26 sweeps aren’t the nicest at best of times! But yeah I agree you might aswell get in there and get a good one!!! Hopefully this will help stir things up! If not you’ve only a few days to wait! Go go go!!!!

It works out as the first day of symptoms then 10 full days. So I will be allowed out on the 10th. So mrsa swabs have been rearranged for the 11th. Midwife pushed back from the 8th but should be OK for c section on the 18th thank god.
 
So just back from final consultant appt. 2cm dilated and 1/2cm long and I got a sweep. Told her not to worry about hurting me and just try her best but golly god it hurt something stinking haha xx
Oh they can hurt can’t they!! Gosh it takes all your strength not to tense up all those pelvic floor muscles. Hopefully something comes of it today :)
 
So miss 5 has croup and got her steroids after waiting 3.5 hours. They did a Covid swab and it was horrific for her poor thing. But she got a pink popsicle afterwards and was right as rain.

Got back to the van at 3:30 and it’s got a completely flat tire so now waiting for roadside assistance in the middle of a rain and windstorm at 4:15am. Absolutely no bloody sleep tonight at all and I’ve killed my pelvis by sitting in the hospital waiting room chairs and also carrying my 45 lbs child when she couldn’t breathe. Just a brutal night! When it rains it pours right!?
