Do they taste the same aa the medicine because that's nasty lol.

@Suggerhoney the minty gaviscon isn't as bad as the aniseed one, but neither is great the chewy ones are like a mild mint ...but love hearts are definitely the one for me work wonders ...when you look at the ingredients, they actually have a lot of the same as antacids!

@Catmumof4 enjoy the baby shower

@atx614 none pregnant I’ve been know to do 25000+ when I haven’t got my children. Though that’s the most id done in ages didn’t quite realise I’d done so many until we got back from swimming and I was knackered

@Suggerhoney almost everyone thinks this one is a boy. I have absolutely no feeling either way other than right now I feel like I’m gonna go overdue

 

[MadamRose]

@Suggerhoney I’m with you on the birth weight. I’m slowly starting to freak out about this one as DD2 was born by this point and was
9lbs 13oz and the sonographer said this one was on track to be slightly bigger

 

[Bittersweet]

Suggar I got the mixed berry flavoured ones so they are a bit easier IMO.
Cat enjoy your baby shower today!

madam I keep coming in to see if your labouring yet!!!

my irregular tightenings are stronger today or maybe that’s wishful thinking haha

 

[MadamRose]

@Bittersweet I’m sure you are gonna go before me tbh!

 

[Suggerhoney]

@Zoboe95
I like Love Hearts so may have to get DH to get me some.
So glad u ladies recommended them.
I'm still taking the medication the consultant gave me and I've been reflux free for a few days but I know it will be back.

@Bittersweet
Ooow ooooow and oooooooow Do you think this cud be the start hon?
Is it tomorrow you go In to be induced? Or was it next Sunday?

@MadamRose
See I've been told this one is smaller than my last.
Tommy was so say 7lbs at just 33 weeks and on the 98th centile they said he was gonna be a very big baby but he was only 7lb 6oz but that was at 37 weeks. Buy I guess if I wud of gone 40 weeks he wud of been about 9lbs I rekon.

This baby is on 76th centile and was 4lb 15oz at 32+3 weeks but I feel like I'm bigger this time so not sure u trust the scan.
I really think he will be over 8lbs even at 37 weeks. DH thinks he will between 6 and a half and 7lbs..
The sonagrapher doing my scan said 6 and a half to 7 and a half lbs.
But I just don't know if I trust it.
I have another growth scan at 36+4 weeks.
Not had my bum measured in ages but I see midwife on Wed so she will do it then. Have a feeling I will be measuring ahead.
My dh don't think I'm that big and everyone says I got a neat bump but I feel like it huge.

Guess only time will tell.

34 weeks today and at 34 weeks with Tommy I lost my whole mukas plug and the show.
But I also had the predominal labour with him.
And with this one I've had nothing.
No sign of any plug or even bits of it. And no Contractions apart from braxton hicks.
Definitely think I will make my induction.
Really do think this baby will be a September baby.

@LoneWanderer
How are you today hon?

 

[MadamRose]

@Suggerhoney I measured bang on fundal height wise with my last two with this one I’ve measure ahead the whole time which definitely adds to my fear! Baby was 6lbs 8oz at 34+5

 

[MadamRose]

Ugh I really don’t feel very well today girls are desperate to go to our local splash pad - right now all I wanna do it sleep but I don’t wanna let them down

 

[Suggerhoney]

@Suggerhoney I measured bang on fundal height wise with my last two with this one I’ve measure ahead the whole time which definitely adds to my fear! Baby was 6lbs 8oz at 34+5

Can understand ure worry hon. I always measured ahead by 2 weeks with my biggest..
That was such a traumatic birth. There is no way I wud be able to birth a 9lb baby. I cudnt even get a 8lb 15 oz baby out they had to use forceps and he got so badly stuck and was born not breathing and purple with blue face hands and feet. Was so scary.
I really hope this baby won't be over 8lbs.
I wud Lone a 6lb baby but can't see it.
Dd was 5lbs 7 and that was very tiny. Wudnt want one that small again. But 6lbs something wud be perfect. 7 lbs is also perfect
If this baby was 4lbs 15 at 32+3 weeks he must be around 5 and a half lbs now. Maybe even 6.

 

[MadamRose]

@Suggerhoney I can obviously do large babies just worried this one will be too large if it stays in much longer!

 

[LoneWanderer]

Nesting has kicked in!

Not me though

The mister is scrubbing and dusting and hoovering and sorting the entire house like his life depends on it. Meanwhile I'm watching CBeebies with the tot.

 

[atx614]

Haha I wish my husband would nest that would be excellent!

@Bittersweet the tightening sounds promising! You are going in for induction tomorrow, right?

 

[LoneWanderer]

Just reading my notes from last week and it says 'first instance of slowed growth' and the chart curve now shows just below the 90th line instead of off the chart completely. I do vaguely remember them saying something last time I was there but I wasn't really listening.

Wonder if I'll get a final sneaky growth scan before the section, seems unlikely now as I have one more midwife (Weds aft) then exactly one week til delivery, but hey, you never know. Might try and breathe in when I get measured so I come out slightly smaller ahahaha!

Seriously though notes also say he'd started to engage so *obviously* the bump would look smaller, I dunno why they even do the measuring thing as it's so wildly inaccurate.

Anyway... my god everything is tight and uncomfortable this afternoon, it's like he's got a cattle prod on my cervix; 'slowed growth' my arse, he's fucking massive. Counting down the days, in fact the hours, til 25th now. OWWWWWW.

Awww hon remember all the scans and stuff can be out. Hopefully baby won't be too big.
Do you feel bigger or heavier than u did with the other 2?
Boys do tend to be larger than girls but not always. I think u will be fine hon. Any more signs of labour. I'm literally on tender hooks here everytime I come into this group.
I really can't call who will be next.
It's a toss up between you and @Bittersweet and @LoneWanderer.
If @Bittersweet is being induced tomorrow then she will be next then you @MadamRose then @LoneWanderer.
Eeeeeek.

Nesting has kicked in!

Not me though

Oh I wish my husband wud start nesting. No chance he wud rather be outside doing cars.
I did get him to do the hoovering on Thursday tho. But I did everything else.
Hahaha u make me laugh hon so much.
Do u think this one will be bigger than ure first?

 

[Bittersweet]

How is everyone?
I’ve spent a lovely day went to soft play and McDonald’s with my son then final clean of the house even though that’s all I’ve done the last few days. I think it’s take away for tea tonight and I go in at 10:30 tomorrow to get started eeek!

 

[LoneWanderer]

Can I just say, OUCH

 

[Zoboe95]

@Suggerhoney doing cars is exactly what my other half has being doing today too! I don't think he has the ability to nest
