Aaahhh girls, I'm in so much pain!!! Pubic bone? Pelvic bone? Right above my fanny. It hurts the most when I want to get up and walk. What the hell is it? SPD??? xx

Sounds like SPD hun.

You might have an inflamed pelvic joint like me only yours is inflamed at the front whereas mine is the one on the left at the back, Best thing to do is sit upstraight and not slouch, even at home when watching tv! Get an ice pack on it (but wrap in a towel first) and try flexing the bottom of your stomach muscles (put your fingers under your bump then try to slightly pull the muscles in at the bottom of your tummy) this will strengthen the muscles and hopefully ease the pain a little too.

Just try and rest up as much as you can. It will go off in a few weeks then probably come back again with a vengeance (thats what has happened to me!) I am having to wear my maternity belt everyday now and put an ice pack on my hip every night and prop myself up with two pillows so I am sat straight and not slouching!!

Get in for some pregnancy physio hun as soon as you can, they will show you how to the exercise and give you more ideas on how to ease the pain

Sounds promising Babyhopes!!

I have caught a flipping cold now!!!

Its just started so all I have is a fuzzy head and a sore throat so far but I can see it coming...been sucking on Halls Soothers but going to buy some lemons after work and drink lots of hot water with honey and lemon in it to ease my throat and try to find some eucalyptus oil to sniff on to clear my head as well as taking paracetamols.

I HATE colds!!!

[laurah8279]

• Looooonnnng walk after dinner
• Watch a sad film whilst bouncing on a gym ball (apparently having a good cry cam bring on labour!)

[sleeping bubs]

hey all

Poppy Mckenzie was on hardly anything in the first couple of weeks when i was discharged form hosp he was having 40mls every 4hrs and that took a long time and that was when he was a week old. As long as she is gaining/maintaining weight she will be fine.

 

[poppy666]

Poppy hope Serenity is ok, she should be drinking a bit more soon, bless xx

China hope things are okay hunni, been thinking of you xxxx

Laura, that was great help thank you. I was at the surgery two weeks ago when doc referred me to 'urgent' physio but still no appointment letter. Not sure how long it'll be, can't wait. My friend is giving me a maternity belt dh is picking it up for me tonight, hope that'll help. Unfortunately, my Sciatica came back today too so i was in agony and had to take co-codamol. xxx

Hello everyone else, hope all okay. I'll try to get back later i'm just feeling very tired xxxxx

I'm good BabyD. Talked to MIL tonight and my FIL has to in for a procedure on Tuesday to check for any blockage or plaque build up in his valves to his heart. Once they get those test back they will schedule his surgery. They believe that this tumor is what caused his mild stroke last month. We are all in good spirits, just keep praying.

Love you all
