Ready for third tri but not quite far enough

[blakesmummy09]

is anyone else like this ive got just over another week till third tri and i feel so ready to go there now and have the urge to start organising properly now everything including my hospital bag (waters broke 9 weeks early with son so prepare early), do you think we'd get away with sneaking over there now? x

 

[Swanny]

MEEEEEEE!! I've been sneaking over there for the past week. Just the posts that I find more relevant to there I've been posting. Haven't done a formal introduction or anything lol.

lol ive been looking for a couple of weeks and just noticed we're due the same day its just dragging in second tri for me now x

 

[Swanny]

Yeah I know but I think once we get into third tri will probably fly by cause I haven't really prepared anything yet lol.

Got loads of things that we kept from 1st baby boy who is now 2 so we don't need to buy much.

Just ordered our double buggy, and nursery interiors.

We are going to a caravan for a week at the end of June and once we get back from there I'll be coming up 30 weeks and I want everything sorting by about 35 weeks cause my son came a little early at 38 weeks last time.

Just need to get everything out the loft see what we have and what we need to buy etc.

I'm definately more interested in the 3rd tri posts lately though, everything is just more relevant.

Me, me, me...I popped my head in but it freaked me out. I am so unprepared. I can't bring myself to sort anything out as this all still feels very surreal!

I have told my OH we need a trip to Kiddicare or Mothercare to make some final decisions on baby stuff.

Holy crap, I am soooo not ready for this!

we should all start our 18th september due date club hehe, ive got most things but my in laws are buying our travel system and i feel that i should have it by now so i can be organised and theyre getting moses basket etc as i have a netural one from my son but theyre buying pink, yet i cant even get that ready till theyve bought it so i havent got alot to organise atm and just feel like i should be doing stuff. All her clothes ive got and just need a play gym that my other halfs going to pick out (hes got a choice of pink, pink or pink lol) but he keeps dragging his knuckles about choosing.
Ive just got to that need to prepare but so much i cant and its frustrating lol x

im only 23 weeks and ready...lol. this whole middle bit rather a limbo time...the excitment of first tri and scans has gone and the scary actually getting ready for imment arrival yet to begin. spose i should enjoy it whilst i can.

 

[NinaAutumn]

Well I am really struggling. I have bought 6 babygrows so far. Also, at the moment we're living in a very small flat that is owned by my OH and his ex (they're divorcing at the moment). I want to move into a 3-bed house my mum owns as my OHs ex HATES that I live here and has forbidden that we decorate or make any changes. I want to get to the 3-bed house and decorate the nursery and start my new life!!

Totally in limbo, can't prep anything! GRRRR.

Problem is if we move and rent mums house we need the rent from this flat...if we move before the divorce we'll have to give half the rent to his ex and that's going to make money really tight. At least after the divorce we'll know where we are financially....ARRRRGGGGGHHHHH. Just can't win and I am getting very impatient. I need to get things ready for bubs!

I've got a 4d scan booked in for 22nd June so that's something for us to look forward to then it's off to third tri yipeeeeeeee

[blakesmummy09]

i really wanted a 4d scan this time but my son starts infant school in september so the money has to go towards school uniform instead x

 

[NinaAutumn]

I have a scan at 34 weeks so I am waiting for that one. The 4D ones freak me out a bit as the babies look like dolls lol I am so weird.

I've been feeling like this for a while. The posts in 2nd trimester are really boring me - especially the same posts being posted over and over again with serial offenders that don't seem able to search for similar questions. *sigh*. Though I am aware once we get over to 3rd trimester it'll end up being the same again "am I in labour"... LOL! Can't win really. I think it shows I use the forum far too much if things are repeating over and over again! What really gets on my nerves is people giving "advice" when they're not trained to do so and therefore giving out wrong information but arguing with the "correct" information! Pah!

 

[blakesmummy09]

lol i know what you mean, i have neighbours like that the only things i really comment about are GD, PROM, c-section, breech babies and if a mother has epilepsy as been there had it all with my DS but apart from that i read but dont comment as you never know if anyone takes your advice and something bad happens x

 

[sharnahw]

I used to be terrified at the thoughts of joining 3rd Tri, You are very welcome to come over and you will deffo find it helpful and informative, Im now 36+3 and nosing in 2nd Tri...

 

[bekkie]

I've been sneaking over already did the same from first tri to second. I'm not ready to *be* in 3rd tri yet though, still too much to do and too much money to save.

 

[IsabellaJayne]

i peaked from first tri into 2nd from about 10 weeks! I do feel like 2nd tri is limbo really, im waiting for 3rd tri...but thats ages away for me yet lol!!

According to this forum, i shouldnt even be in 2nd tri but MW starts 2nd tri from 13 weeks, so ill go with that !

I guess its down to when you're ready to move

 

[Calibeachbum]

I'm ready, I have been lurking there and now it's finally sinking in that I will be giving birth! It gives me anxiety
