Forums New posts
Congratulations Sea, that's brillant news! Taking leave to make a four day week has worked wonders for me (and a five-day week this week is really taking it's toll). I'm working 3-2-2-3 days in my remaining weeks, thankfully.
 
Thanks girls, luckily we're on flexitime so I can do a short day if needed, can't wait to start having days off
 
4 day week sounds like a plan sea - congrats on Vday:) and Nic happy 30 weeks :)

ive been up to Medcentre and gotten my iron tablets - lets see how i go - wonder if they'll stop me wanting to sleep all day every day? gutted i have to watch my milk intake with them tho - as milk is my craving!!

hi ladies... checking in to say :hi:

i'm feeling tiiiiiired too! i'm struggling to get through the days, and have started counting down the 10 weeks that i have to make it through until mat leave! it can't come soon enough...

anyone else find they have restless legs? i've had it since first tri if i get tired at night, but now i have it most days much earlier. it feels like i have discomfort in my legs and i have to shake or stretch them to make the feeling go away... for like 2 seconds then its back :(

glad to hear all are well!
 
Thinking of you today H xx

As for me, well im not coping very well, im going through the paranoia stage. I had an awful nights sleep as didnt feel bubs move, I got up at 3am with the doppler and found him straight away. I am having all sorts of thoughts and its driving me nuts.

I just wish the next 3 weeks would hurry up because that is when I will relax and start enjoying it. I never thought this stage would be so difficult all I wanna do is stay at home and cry - sorry to be such a wus bag xxxx
 
Congats on viablity sea :D

I can't beleive its only 5days until im full term just can't wait to get there now, then me and OH will be doing everything we can to try and get baby out even though im not being too hopeful it will work. I'm finding its really starting to drag now :( i just want her here. Knowing my luck she will make me go the whole 2 weeks over :(
 
:hugs: fluffy - I think PAL mummies are programmed to get past one milestone and start worrrying about the next one. I know I have said 1) I'll stop worrying when I see a heartbeat - nope, 2)I'll stop worrying if our 12-week scan is ok - nope, 3) I'll stop worrying when our combined screening is ok - nope, 4) I'll stop worrying if 20-week scan is ok - nope! Now I'm paranoid that by buying stuff and planning for baby I'm somehow jinxing it. Hope you're paranoia eases a little hun but don't worry about worrying (its out of your control).

Hope you get your early arrival due - any other signs?

Hope you're well hannah (apart from the tiredness and restless legs) - oh maternity leave... hurry up will you!

Looking forward to hearing Oliver news h!

I've been planning going-home outfits in my head and thinking about vests - how dull but bring-a-smile-to-your-face exciting at the same time!

Thats very true triple. I had my 12 week scan, then becuase i was 11weeks 6days kept worrying something would be wrong by the 20week scan ect. And it just kept happening. Even now when im so close to having her i still worry something will go wrong. Either before labour, or in labour or once she is here.

Ive had back ache for a day or so now but thats it. I will be doing lots of evication stuff once i get to 37weeks just hope it works. As knowing my luck it wont. I know its not long 5days until term, 3weeks 5days until due, but then when i think if i go over it could still be about 5weeks 3days it makes my heart sink i really dont want to have to wait that long.

Yes ive got chloes all in a hospital bag downstairs where im hoping to have her. Then if there were any probs i can just take them with us. If not OH can jsut take them out of the bag once we need to dress her.
 
And I've got a feeling due that once they are born that's when the worrying really starts!

Backache is a good sign I think. My friend woke up at 38 weeks with awful backache. When it got so bad she went to the hospital it turns out it she was feeling contractions in her back rather than her bump and she was 5cm dilated. Her gorgeous little boy was born a few hours later! Sounds like you are all prepared. I will be starting my maternity leave at 36 weeks so I'm really hoping my little one doesn't put in an early appearance, I would like some time to nest!

Beadette - your first tri seems to be flying. Do you have another scan soon?

Yes ive been nesting loads, but its good as it keep me on my feet so gravity is helping get her lower :haha:
I just think becuase everyone thinks im gonna be early she may have other ideas hope not though.
And yes im guessing i will worry loads once shes born. The 1st night i can see me setting my alarm to wake up every hour to check shes ok
 
Got to join you in the paranoia girls, I'm exactly the same with the milestones. I must admit that getting to viability stage did help a little but it still didn't ease the terriblt thoughts that I could still lose him despite the fact that he has a good chance of survival outside of the womb now. A few times it the worry has totally overwhelmed me and I've been on the verge of a panic attack. It's just terrifying but seems like its perfectly normal (especially for PAL mummies as Louise said) :hugs: all round x

Yes we will definightly always worry more. As i said im almost term so the likelyhood of anything not being ok now is so slim and im still worried out of my mind at point.
 
Think im coming down with something, i got a bit of a temp and i feel like pants, im aching and just wanna sleep. Im going docs at 6 tonight, i suffer with reflux disease and I think its flaring up feels like i swallowed a golf ball and its stuck :-
 
Aww hope you feel better soon fluffy :hugs:
Im just recovering from a really bad cold.
 
Good idea to get to the docs fluffy - better safe than sorry.

Has anyone else noticed that paracetamol is actually very effective when your body is a drug (not the illegal variety!) and alcohol-free zone? I used to swear by nurofen before I was pregnant and thought that paracetamol was rubbish. However when I had a cold a few weeks ago one paracetamol was really effective! Lord knows what a glass of wine would do to me now!
