Aimee...have a moan! I have...lol

Makes u feel better i think...i know what u mean about 'that stage'...think its just everythings getting slower, sore, achey and heavy now...in between excitement bursts i feel so drained. You can be grateful and have a moan still...as pregnant women its our right! lol

sorry you're having a down day...hugs for yoooou

 

[Beautywithin]

Sorry it is hurting laura chick

I have been quiet as i feel quite crap. Just very tired and achey and like i really just can't be arsed with anything. I don't want to moan about being pregnant as i am so, so grateful and happy but i think i am getting to that stage...

Oh i feel exactly the same at the moment, i feel like iv really put my life on hold, which just because im pregnant, it dont mean i have to, but i have, dont think it helped i left work, back in june, i hardly go out with my friends, because i just feel huge and frumpy, cant do the simplest things, without getting knackered,
Im very grateful this pregnancy is going great ( touch wood ) i just wish i didnt feel so down all the time, x

There's something about pregnancy that just makes you feel crap. Your Life changes, you become relient on someone else which is a horrid feeling. The littlest tasks take so much effort, somedays I feel like I haven't even got enough energy to get out if bed, plus you've lost completely control of your body!

Doesn't matter how grateful we are about being pregnant, some stuff is just plain crap and I am sure we have all felt the same at some point.

Thats why we have forums like this because noone understands better than other pregnant people so never feel like you can't talk to us xxx

Amen!! All my friends seem to be so sick of baby stuff now...i can literally hear them think 'oh here we go again, baby stuff.' when i talk to them...but its the biggest thing happening in my life right now!! So what else do you expect me to talk about? Never mind the elephant in the room eh?!

If i didnt have this forum i think id go nuts...and its so nice to have you ladies to talk to who can sympathize from exactly where im sitting. And if you have aches, pains, problems or questions....its so nice to have you girls to ask and vice versa

think we are all getting towards the end now and just want to start the next part...i just want to be a mummy now, and hold my little girl in my arms!

 

[mummysuzie22]

I'm with you ladies..but you'll be amazed at how quickly everything disappears hours after you have your lo..not long ma dears till we're at the end

3rd tri i find can be the worst trimester as everything like you ladies have said slow done physical wise and there's only so much we can do..i find this my worst trimester too..and like you bw i don't really have a social life anymore and at times i get a bit lonely and pissed off feeling my friends have some what ditched me but that's why am glad i have you ladies here or i would probably be depressed.

And don't ever apologise for having a moan it's what we're here for xx

 

[pinkclaire]

I was saying to random the other day, if I didnt have my bnb friends I probably wouldnt speak to anyone for days on end and I wouldnt have any friends hehe.

Morning

32 weeks = 8 months

just weigh'd myself, im exactly 11 stone now so i decided to celebrate with having a bag of m & ms for brekkie! no point me getting upset over it is there, nothing i can do about it at the moment


x

 

[nervouspains]

Morning ladies!

Congrats on 32 weeks BW!!! whoooo!
11 stone? Last time I weighed that was about... *counts* 6 years ago
I got no idea how I am going to loose 3-4 stone in 7 months... But I NEED too.
The only way I can loose weight, for me, is not to eat. Well not completley stop eating, but I mean in 6 months I could easily loose 2-3 stone by eating what I wanted, but not very much.

Sometimes, if I felt too stuffed, I would make myself throw up, jsut because otherwise if I didnt, I would feel like I weas going to burst. I started doing that again when I was pregnant, but didnt know...

When I broke up with my ex, I lost 2 1/2 stone in 6 months, by this:

eg a typical day:

wouldnt eat until 1, have a sandwich, crisps, choccy bar, then I would eat again about 7, maybe just a burger

or one day I would have a large burgetr king, and thats it.

or if it was a work day and I was clubbing that night, id have a sarnie for lunch, couple bags of choc and a carton of milk at aobut 6... and thats it.

So I never really thought of myself as on a diet, as I still ate what I want... I think having a busy social life & smoking also played a part...

But obviosuly I cant do that when LO comes along if I plan to BF I just dont know how to only eat healthy- it reminds me too much of a diet and thats not what I want to do, or I cant control myself when I do eat like that- does anyone understand what I mean or am I just sounding stupid?

xx

 

[mummysuzie22]

lol bw my kinda breakfast!


Yayy for 32 weeks!! Saying 8 months pregnant sounds awesome!!

Am the same as you pc..

Had a decent sleep last night for a change..had the window opened after having it shut for a few nights and think that's why i've been sleeping rubbish.

Also have an ear infection i think but can't get a doc appt today it's not too bad just when i sallow goes right into my ear and to touch it..hopefully get one tomorrow.

Got my 32 week appt today..can't believe we're all this way already!! Anyone have any questions they want me to ask her?

xx

 

[mummysuzie22]

Yea i get what your saying np..i don't have any will power to lose weight myself so i'm going to go back to slimming world. When me and hubby split up a few years ago i didn't eat for 3 weeks..i lost 22 lbs but as soon as we got back together i put it all back on and some..but i remember how much thinner i was and loved it. Am sure we can all help each other when we've had our lo's moral support xx

 

[Beautywithin]

That makes perfect sense Callie- is why i went on the cambridge diet, i cant do a diet that involves food, i just give in to easily, but i know this time round it will be hard especially with a new born to look after, so im worried will i still be able to do it, when i say 11 stone it dont sound to much, but with me, it just goes everywhere, i havent taken many pictures since iv been preg, because all i see is my fat face,
im a serial binge eater and will eat even when im not hungry, to the point i want to be sick, that isnt healthy at all,

so yes hopefully when he have our LO's we can start losing the flab together and be yummy mummys, im going on a diet soon as i had him, not extreme one, seeing as we wont be aloud to start any proper diet till after 6 weeks, but will just have 3 main healthy meals aday, and hopefully time the 6 weeks is up, i would have least lost a stone!

christmas is worrying tho, all them foods so tempting! arghhhhh

 

[AimeeM]

Morning all, feel a tad better this morning.

Happy 32 weeks BW!!

I have just started to notice the weight gain now but i also am at a stage where i want double portions, i just had 4 crumpets! Going to try and weigh myself today if i find some scales and see what the damage is...

Just popping out i will be back on later to chat girls xx

 

[randomxx]

happy 32 weeks BW

im glad i have all of you guys my mates are all party animals lol so very rarely see them and as you say twiggy you start to feel really consious of the fact that your talking about baby all the time!

my plan of action after i have the little one is going long walks with him in his pram and the dog plus OH is going to give me one night a week to go and do some sort of keep fit class and swimming hoping that will help me out! Aswell as trying the special k 2 week trial (i love special k but baby doesn't) fingers crossed that shifts most of it lol!

 

[AimeeM]

I dont f***ing believe this just rang the HIP helpline they have got the form but the stupid arse of a midwife signed it 9th november 2010 instead of 2009 so they have declined it.
They have referred it to a different department who will contact the midwife to see if she actually dated it wrong so they can amend it but she left a couple of weeks ago. They said that they will give her 4 weeks to reply and if she doesn't (which she wont cos she has gone) we have to send a new form but by the time it gets there the baby will be here so basically we wont get it

 

[nervouspains]

Thanks ladies- yes we deffo will.
Im going to try and walk as much as poss and also was thinking about getting some ready meals in- quick and easy microwave WW ones or Tesco healthy living?
Esp as I suppose everything will be up in the air until I got a routine in place...

Even thoguh I feel like this- I still dont hesitate when I have choclate, or cakes etc. I just cant control myself. And im thinking, how the hell am I going to go back to the way I was with food- when I cant stop myself eating crap now?

I will try the healthy route while im breast feeding- but after that, il prob go back to my old ways...

I just rung HIP- Whooo hooo! It was processed ont he 8th Dec... So I am going to check my bank account

Has anyone else recevied theres yet?

xxx

 

[nervouspains]

OMG Aimee! I just read your post! What a thicko!!
Mine was sent and dated ont he 9th too xxx

 

[mummysuzie22]

Aww Aimee that's rubbish..can you not call the midwife that's there just now and get her to fill out another one?

That's brilliant np..i didn't send mine off till the 19th so doubt mine will be processed yet.

Am gonna get my gran to make meals and am gonna freeze them so we have meals ready and just need to defrost them xx

 

[nervouspains]

Oh no money in the bank yet though lol
They said it takes 4-6 working days to reach the bank account.

Im going to take that money though and put it in another account to spend on things in the Jan sales- I need to get, stuff for my hosital bag (but I ahve £30 in boots points to use for that! yay) a car seat, a play mat, a changing mat, and a vibrating chair lol xxx

 

[randomxx]

Aimee thats bloody crap can they not phone your current midwife instead of the old one? the thing that gets me is we aren't in 2010 so obviously she really ment 2009 grrrr stupid idiots!

 

[Beautywithin]

Aimee. that is bloody stupid, id have the right arse, and next time you see her, defo point it out, still not recieved mine, tho for weeks now in my account it says i can withdraw only a certain amount, but shows on a statement that there is 100 more that needs to clear, but the grant is for 190 right? so not sure what that is all about

either way im pissed off, i needed that money befor xmas really, cant do my hospital bag untill after now! why is everything money money money x
