Glad it went well at the mw callie, yes they will induce you early so he doesn't get too big! So wow he could be here even sooner

You will get tax credits for max as soon as you ring up and let them know he is born, all childeren get it unless your on a millionaires wage lol xx

 

[mummysuzie22]

Wow what a busy weekend you had np!! How exciting he could be here sooner!!

Have the consultant on Friday so will hopefully have a date on Friday. Also have my growth scan. Can't wait to see him. A bit nervous tho cuz i didn't have a 20 week scan so hoping nothing is wrong with him. Just keep positive thinking

Have so much to do. Really need to start packing the house up. 2 weeks on Wednesday we move. Going to pack some of my bag today. Going to Matalan on Friday so just gonna get a few pairs of joggers and t shirts for the hospital that way the bag is packed and ready to go

xx

 

[nervouspains]

Lol thanks Ams, well im certintly not on that wage lol.
yay I will deffo do that- and try for the sure start, no harm in asking

I know, I hope so! I hope they induce me around 37-38 weeks, I reckon then he would be a fairly normal weight, im going to ask my consultant if they will induce me when I see her at my 34 week scan, I so hope she says yes lol xxx

 

[nervouspains]

Thanks MS
Kellan will be just fine

Have you started packing at all? lol

Has anyone started on there hospital bag? Im waiting until the new year- but I think I should start buying bits now, the sooner the better! lol

My mw is going to call/ text me tomorrow after 10 with my GTT results... Im pretty nervous, but at least il know this time tomorrow xx

 

[mummysuzie22]

Packed a few bits and pieces but that's it lol such a procrastinator!!

Hopefully everything will be ok np..at least you'll get your results back quite quick.

Am starving..don't know what to have for lunch xx

 

[pinkclaire]

In my usual style I'm worrying about what I actually need and what I should buy. So no I haven't started my bag but I am starting to panic when ever I look at the list! I'll need about 10 bags at this rate!

 

[mummysuzie22]

lol pc..you might be better packing 2 bags one for labour and one for your hospital stay and baby stuff. You also don't really need half the things on the list..just the necessities sp? 3 g's is probably the best person for advice on what you really need as she's been through it twice already xx

 

[Beautywithin]

iv just got a hospital bag, with nothing in it lol

got a billion and one things to do aswell claire, but cant be arsed


anyone got there hip grant money thru yet? im still waiting! x

 

[mummysuzie22]

Nope bw but i just sent mine away the other day..again a procrastinator lol

I read somewhere on the forum that cuz of the mail strike there is a 4 week backlog xx

 

[AimeeM]

Ms i agree Kellan will be fine, it will be exciting to see him

Callie is it a growth scan at 34 weeks?

Bw i rang them this morning, it still isn't on the system...

I need to think about a hospital bag too!

 

[AimeeM]

They told me six weeks this morning on the phone, seems to be getting longer!

 

[pinkclaire]

Thanks MS, 3 girlies give us advice lol, what are you packing!

BW it's a rubbish feeling isn't it, I'm just going to waste my whole mat leave I reckon! Although I'm going to aquabumps tonight, I had the worst dream last night about how I looked in my wedding dress, it has really scared me so decided I need to do something to stop the double chin becoming a triple chin!

Got the midwifes tomorrow, anyone know what to expect?

 

[nervouspains]

Lol BW an empty bag lol

No im still waiting for mine! I sent it on the 19th Nov!

Yes I assume it is its with my consultant so im guessing she just wants to check how things are progressing.
MW said if I do have GD though, il be scanned again to check the growth of baby.
OMG 6 weeks?! Probably have our babies before the HIP! lol xxxx

 

[mummysuzie22]

That's rubbish 6 weeks..need mine to buy the cot and some nursery stuff.

lol pc..you'll look gorgeous!! Can't wait to see pics

I know it's a bit early to be doing my bag but i've read a few stories where babies came early and knowing my luck if my bag isn't done he will come early lol

Is tomorrow your 32 week appt PC? xx

 

[Beautywithin]

im sure you havent a double chin claire, mine is defo a triple now! you wouldnt think 2 stone would make a lot of difference to someone's appearance, but seriously it does, it dont help with people saying oh you have gained so much weight, i guess its because they have only ever seen me slim lol

Im meant to be seeing the MW tomoz, but gota cancell now because she only wanted to see me for my blood test results and i only got them done sat, so i doubt they will be back yet


6 weeks is taking the piss aimee especially as people seemed to be getting them after a week, a month or so ago,

callie i hope your lil man shows his face on sunday.... just as much as you we want to see his wee lil face

Claire have you noticed from 30 weeks that your bubs has been kicking a load more, Adam has always been active, but since last week, it feels he is moving about in there all day x

 

[mummysuzie22]

Has anyone noticed there little one getting into a routine with moving? I never paid much attention to it with Alex but since the midwife mentioned it he moves when i wake up about 8 for about 5 mins then goes back to sleep about 4-5 hours later wakes then goes back to sleep and does that all day. He moves a bit more at night about 10ish. Hope he stays like that when he's born lol. Altho i don't really get kicks anymore more just moving and sticking a foot out here and there. I get a few shudders at the bottom of my pelvis which feels like when a wet dog shakes himself to get dry lol best possible way to explain it lol anyone else get that? xx

 

[pinkclaire]

Thanks MS and BW!

BW- People say the same things to me as well, I hate it. I actually dread going somewhere where people know me becasue of the comments. I tried to tell my OH about it and he just says well you pregnant, of course people are going to remark on it, but what he doesnt get is every single person you see has something to say about your weight which really gets to me!

MS & BW - My baby has moved a lot from the start, I am actually not sure when it sleeps, I think Jimmy is like Daddy and wriggles in its sleep, the other night I had OH foot going and Jimmy kicking in my tummy at exact same time, they are so alike lol. But Im the same, I find I get more movements rather than kicks now, but it does really hurt now! x

 

[Beautywithin]

I cant really tell at the moment because he is always moving lol, but i have noticed some sort of pattern, he will wake me at 3am kicking the matress lol, ( every night ) then he will start kicking again at 7:30 just befor his daddy leaves for work

he is mostly active at nights, i remember with paris, she would always kick me at 2 in the morning for ages, and funny enough i woke up at 2am with contractions...

x

 

[mummysuzie22]

lol..Kellan moves about 4 in the morning but only wakes me for a minute then fall back asleep. I think the fact i have a bit more padding i don't feel the movements as much which in some ways am greatful lol xx

 

[AimeeM]

I know it does take the piss,i sent mine on the 9th of November, i could really, really do with it now too.

Nathan seems to move when i wake up and i am laid in bed and when i lay down in bed at night. He is pretty quiet during the day with the odd time he moves here and there. He seems to have calmed down in the night now too!
