Ohhh rach! Big baby eh! I can see you with a boy Its going to be a lovely surprise for us both as im staying team yellow too..tho everyone is telling me ill have a girl lol.

Good that you are all ready Tina! How was the timescale with Aden? As in were you early or overdue? x

 

[moter98]

The penguin hat is too small lol

Oh so adorable! Love the penguin hat/outfit! I've got baby fever big time looking at those pics

 

[moter98]

Glad to hear you are doing well and managing the ms Sarah. Aren't those kicks amazing?!
I'm feeling some pretty strong ones now, along with body parts being shoved into my ribs. Gets uncomfortable at times and he's still gonna double in size yet at least!
Been doing pretty good pregnancy wise so far. However, my terrible two toddler is giving me quite the runaround. I'm exhausted lol

Happy 31wks! Wow your pregnancy feels like its flying by!!

Its amazing that people ribs dont get broken!! I have to admit I am a little scared of when those kicks will be with much more force and at the ribs! But they are damn amazing! Its never still in there these days!

Aww sorry to hear that Aden is exhausting you! Is he testing your boundaries? xx

I've never felt a rib kick yet as Aden carried very low. This one seems low too but he's managed to tuck a body part just up under my right rib cage lol!
Mr Aden has most defininately been testing boundaries lately! We are getting a handle on it though. Turns out I just needed to be more firm for him to take me seriously and listen better

Yep I guess girl! But it will be fun to see if I'm right or wrong.

Aden was just 5 days early and let me tell you, I was more than ready for him. At that point I just wanted him OUT!

Hi Sarah!
I will load a scan pic soon, but they are not actually that good
Faythe your baby is beyond cute!!
Moter good to be prepared! Your so close! Just can't believe it! X

 

[rooster100]

Hi girls! Went to see my obstetrician for the first time today, he was lovely. I have gained 17lbs! I'm shocked! Haven't been weighing myself. He wasn't concerned but do u girls think that's too much!? X

 

[moter98]

I don't think it is. I've gained 24 lbs so far. You are supposed to gain between 25-35 lbs total. I gained more quickly at first than most myself but I seem to have slowed down to a more steady weight gain now. I wouldn't worry about it! And besides, you can always lose it after baby is here.

 

[sarahuk]

Agree! That doesnt sound like a lot of weight gain when you consider what you have grown inside including all the placenta and waters etc!

I hope that baby comes early this time around for you too then Tina It still messes with my head that you are on single figures now..just where has the time gone!

Still cant wait to see your pic rach! My 12wk scan piccie was a joke which is why I never uploaded it. Baby got the hiccups when she was taking the pic and ofc just as she clicked he jumped. So we ended uip with the abdomen...and then a phantom hand floating in the background wide open..ofc the hand is cute...but still!

Hoping for a better pic on Monday Then you girls will have to do your psychic bit for me! x

 

[moter98]

can't wait to see a pic sarah! hope you are feeling better

i cannot wait to have this baby, getting uncomfortable lol
from sun thru thurs i had constant bh, 50 a day. was getting alarming. then last night, i had this horrendous pain like little one was shifting position and since then the bh have died down. saw dr today and he was not worried at all and says i will go full term. i have literally everything ready for baby except for crib mattress moved up (waiting on dh) and bottles washed which will wait till baby is home. can you say impatient?

 

[rooster100]

Ha ha Moter you are always patient! You were the same when TTC and POAS days early
Can't believe yr on the final stretch! How exciting!
Sarah can't wait to see yr scan pics! X

 

[moter98]

Lol! You are right rooster. I cannot wait for this baby yet I know he needs more time to cook yet.
Having problems with these darn braxton hicks though! Went to dinner tonight and had a ton and everytime I got up or walked I got them constantly!

 

[rooster100]

Wow I didn't know you could get them so much! Are they very painful!? X

 

[moter98]

most only get 2-10 in a day. i think i've just got an irritable uterus. no they aren't painful, but very, very uncomfortable. i kindof hunch over and walk slowly. hate the feeling since it's so constant. would love to just get 10 a day lol. but, dr isn't worried so i'm trying to relax about it.

I say a mummy who is ready for her baby! Do you think youll try and serve an eviction notice when you start to get close to the end? All the women ive followed through pregnancy who have gotten to the end have made me giggle with all the things they try

So glad that the pains didnt turn out to be anything to worry about. Did the Dr say what he thought it was? x

 

[sarahuk]

See im worried now..ive been getting some pains and ive been putting them down to just being BH (I never realised you start getting them at 6wks but just dont feel them till later!)...but I keep reading they arent uncomfortable. I wish my bloody midwifes had their phone on occasionally lol x

 

[moter98]

Oh yeah, bh are very very uncomfortable. I wouldn't say painful, but when I get mine I sometimes lose my breath and have to bend over. They aren't like my true contractions with Aden though. Now those were like a knife being ripped through and spread around my stomach. That kind of contraction you will not have a doubt. If you can talk through them, they don't get longer stronger and closer together, then they are braxton hicks

Oh of course lol! The whole last month with Aden I walked for an hour a day cause I read it can help you dilate. I am already to the point of being ready this time. I am so uncomfortable and in pain. I have lots of breathlessness, getting tons of braxton hicks, then today I was out to lunch and right after eating I got all hot and shaky and week and cramps in my lower stomach. Had to leave and am now at home laying down. All of this is scaring me! Did not happen with Aden. I am miserable and hope it is just an off week

 

[sarahuk]

Im so sorry to hear that you are feeling miserable hun Perhaps all the pain is from him moving down and starting to engage into the right position for labour? I sense you are going to go earlier with this one!

I hope the pains are better today? They sound pretty evil x

 

[moter98]

no, i think its too early for him to be engaged yet. and my stomach has not dropped like it did with aden, though i am carrying low again. i guess it's just the joys of 2nd pregnancy lol! feeling better today so far so that's good! still getting lots of bh, but they are mild compared to what i was getting. hoping it all dies down for a few days and we are running around everywhere for xmas the next few days. oh my gosh, i would love to go early with the one lol! right at 37 weeks i will be standing at the door waiting for baby to come. i am more than ready already. it took me much longer to be ready with aden. around 39 weeks i said i was ready. with ds i had this huge fear of labor and delivery. now that i know more what to expect i'm not so scared......still not thrilled about it, but at least not so scared.

 

[rooster100]

It's great that yr not scared Moter! It gives me hope! I am excited about the labour! I know it will hurt but I know each labour is different so I must just wait and see what happens! If you go at 37 weeks it means you only have 5 weeks to go! X
