I was laughing out loud at that too

she spent a while looking for the head and i got nervous baby didnt have one. im stupid.

poppy, when you singled out this statement and bolded it and i read it, i realized how silly it sounds Also, dont know exactly what you meant by cold air in the nose but, lately when we go to sleep with the air conditioning on in our bedroom, I wake up in the middle of the night with TERRIBLE headaches and ear aches and then I have to take tylenol and turn the air off and I lay in bed covering my ears for some reason. Your thing sounds similar to that i think?

pk-thanks so much for sharing your experiences with births here in the US, i think im looking for something similar to what you did. i also imagine that by the time im 6-8cm ill be wanting to not go for a stroll and will probably rather be in bed, but up until then i want to be able to move around too. i hope my experience goes as well as yours sound. how did you cope without any meds.. did you take classes or anything? i really want to but everyone around me makes it sound impossible, which is not very reassuring.

coral-i cant believe you are cleaning your dads house still! i hardly clean my own house now, let alone someone elses. you must be so strong to stick through that until the end! Only a few more days until you get to meet baby, so exciting! Are you nervous about the csec or anything? I know you've had them before but.. ahh so soon! I'm sure you both will do great

lew- for 1cm and 50%!! Hopefully anytime now huh Cant wait for more babies on here! I can't believe you are sticking it out working up until the end too!

puppycat- sorry your candle party didnt go as well as you'd like, those things are hard. My SIL does jewelry parties and they always seem to put a lot of stress on her.

tink- hope lily is well, getting ready to read your birth story

MC- aww i think your bump looks adorable! I do think it looks not as giant as a few weeks ago maybe? Hmm.. like you said baby being in a weird position might change how it looks. Either way it suits you though!

BD- im not sure exactly what the med is that the doctor prescribed you, but if it doesnt work there are probably other options. I was on one called zofran, it might be called something else where you live, but there is probably an equivalent or almost-equivalent. It worked for me, not a miracle of course but it did help. Also, I remember when we talked before you said you were really exhausted, I know when I get overly tired I get nausea, even now. If you get extra sleep it might tone down the sickness a little. Anything to make it manageable Also I ate a lot of rice and peanut butter toast at the beginning because it was all I could stomach. Maybe you'll find a few things that sound *OK* to eat.

Also I had fun reading everyone's posts about how they dont get any bed-time with their OHs anymore now that prego OH and I actually did try a lot. But he had that yucky shoulder surgery and cant lay on his left arm and also cant bear weight on it. Which you can imagine limits positions On top of that my big belly sticks straight out and we cant even get close to each other when we try to do it. And you can imagine foreplay is almost entirely out of the question Last time we tried was a couple weeks ago and it was all so silly. We were trying to be serious and it really did suck and he said "this is like a bad porno" and from there we both just lost it We are like a train wreck when we try to do anything! So we decided we can probably resume normal activity in like.. november when his arm is less gimpy and my belly isnt sticking out 11 feet from my body lol. Oh and OH is back at work as of today, but only light duty lifting 5lbs or less.

Yeah I'm a bit nervous hopes but glad I'm not worried about labour and I have a date so know when it's coming. I won't be cleaning my dads now so he'll have to hire a maid
I hope you have a great childbirth experience.

Lew that's great you are 1cm already I was never dilated before labour.

Tink does lily have an infection or a blocked tear duct?

Tink yes im fine, had a couple of sicky days there but feeling better now which is just as well because i go back to work tonight Nightshift for the next 4 nights, boooo! So i won't be around much until the start of next week.

Babydream sorry your having such a rough time with ms, i have never been sick up to this point and have only had nausea but that was bad enough. Hope you start to feel better soon *hugs*

Coral good luck for the delivery of your pink bundle on Monday!

Hi to everone else! My mind has gone blank, grrr. Speak soon x

 

[Tinkerbellxxx]

Hmm thinking about it, maybe its actually increased sensitivity in the nose? extra blood volume? zzzzzzzzzzzzz too complicated for me to ponder tonight, I'm getting confused as to whether to make tea or shower while Lily naps....... zzzzzzz might just sleep x

 

[poppy666]
