Those TTC for awhile.

[sarahuk]

I was totally immobile some days towards the end. Especially going a week overdue. That was hard.

Chris and I have been discussing #2. I'd love another but I wish I could forsee whether my birth would be as I want or end up like the last. Probably wait until next year before J's 2nd birthday before we TTC #2. That'd make a nice gap I think.

Got any names sorted?

Not to mention Jacob was quite big too! Your poor pelvis...how quickly did your pain go away after you'd had him in that regard?

I think its understandable hun that you have some anxieties about the birth. I mean, you had a pretty traumatic time with J. It cant be easy to make the conscious choice to go down a path that may or may not lead to the same. Though, they do say every birth is different, but the psychological scars of a traumatic labour dont really care about those quotes! I do think thats a lovely age gap though

Happy 38 weeks rooster!

AFM, today I took my baby, my older baby but he will still always be my baby, for his first haircut. He cried the whole time saying, help me mommy. But his hair looks lovely now and he got a sucker when he was all done. We took him to a cool kids hair place where they had a big chalkboard to draw on and toys. They give you a nice little card with his first locks of hair to keep too. Was pretty cool. And I will for ever have a pic of Aden's first haircut, even if he is crying in it, poor guy

Oh bless him!! Thats really lovely though what they do there. I wish they did that kind of thing over here. Such a lovely way to treasure a first memory! x

Hi Sarah! Yes DH is home now full time and making up for lost time! Went out last night for a friends birthday and baby beaks had alot of attention and rubs! X

After a few days but I am still suffering with SPD. Not sure it'll ever go and I can't afford to see an osteopath.

J's photoshoot went really well. Looking forward to the photos. He pulled some cracking faces

We're off to the park when he wakes. Knackered himself out with excitement!

Poor Aden! That's hairdresser sounded like fun though!
I have heard that most people's different births are quite different (if that makes sense)
My LO is so quite at the moment. It moves but not loads, I always worry when it goes like this x

I think at the end baby just doesn't have so much room to move around and he/she is most likely head down in pelvis now. You will probably be feeling more pressure now. You should still be feeling kicks and movements on a regular basis but they may not be as often as before. If you are ever worried, lie down on your left side and count how long it take to feel 10 movements of any kind, hiccups count. You should feel 10 in an hour and most often you feel 10 within 15 minutes. Remember too that baby will have sleep wake cycles now so you may not feel too much movement when he/she is sleeping. If you are at all concerned though call your dr

Hmmm 39+4 sounds good Sarah!
I originally thought 38+4 but I think I was a little optimistic! I know I need to be patient and enjoy these last baby-less days but I just can't wait to meet LO and see if its a girl or a boy! And have labour over and done with and to not have this burning pain in my right ribs! Xx

Im defo thinking little boy! Its so exciting that you dont know. Im glad we stayed strong too now. Cant believe that we are already at that point where you can go any day now!! Is hubby home now full time? x

You both have much more willpower than me! Will be exciting to find out what you're having

It can take your body awhile to fully recover, give it another 6 months. Hope the pain goes soon for you. With Aden, I did have some mild pain I believe that was from the catheter that lasted about 18 months. It wasn't everyday and was more an annoyance than anything. It did eventually go away though. This time I have the same thing but its even less than last time. Our bodies went through huge changes over 9 short months and then a major "trauma" with the birth so I'm sure for some things it just takes longer to heal.

That photoshoot sounds fun, want to see the pics if you can post them

[Faythe]

SO glad he is home now! I bet it feels like heaven chick. I dunno how you cope with being apart so much, strong lady and strong relationship! But now you are all together and about to be a family...awww..makes me all warm and fuzzy inside!!

Aww so glad it went well! Hope we can beg a sneak peak! He always looks so photogenic so bet they are wonderful!

Thats sad to hear about the SPD still being around I hope its something that will go with time and that youre not stuck with. Is it something the nhs wont get involved in? Seems unfair to me if they wont help you!

LOVE the pictures at the Park!! Jacob looked like he was having a wonderful time on the swings! So cute

Oh my look at those photo shoot piccies!!!! Too cute!! I love the one with the silk on his head, his expression is beyond adorable! I bet you are such a proud mummy

That makes a lot of sense Tina! Ive noticed since mine went head down that the movements are different now, but still there. I didnt know that hiccups counted though, thats good to know! Think mine just likes to stick its bum out and wiggle lol.

You both have much more willpower than me! Will be exciting to find out what you're having

I only had it cos Matt wouldnt give in lol. I have another scan on the 22nd and we are at the point now we are scared to look at the screen just incase. I think id be devastated if we got this far not knowing then saw a willy! Going to ask them not to turn on the monitor for us I think.
