Checking in. Thanks ladies for your sympathy re ridiculous info-sharing DP. He has since apologised after getting the grouchy treatment. I just felt a little bit like a grandchild-womb-hire and they were assessing me like a farm animal!
Worked for hours painting our iron gate and feel awful now!!! SC at 35
As the oldest ( gulp) here may I dare to say it might not be our last??? Will decide after birth but we wanted to have 4 dcs altogether and lo will be number 3!!! My oldest (dd ) would vom if she knew !!! The thought of her parents dtd
Bugger! Just did a massive post on the old thread and it's lost. Will have to repost in the morning. Night all - hope to not be chatting to you at 4am!
SC @ 38+1, 2 full days left until I meet my baby. Looking forward to status change to OWT Tuesday morning... can't believe I was so worried about reduced movement after steroid - I feel godawful but she is more active than ever!!
Yay to more facebook joiners - do introduce yourselves on there so we can put faces to nicknames
Hi everyone! Nice to see a shiny new thread. Yay for the new squishy babies and congratulations to their mummy's! SC @ 38+3, more pains yesterday and a sweep. However it's now officially my birthday so there may be a chance baby nelly might share it with me? Wishful thinking but I do hope so. Hope everyone is ok and hoping for more arrivals on this thread xxx
Happy Birthday NellysGirl - hope you get that special pressy today.
notsoold if it makes you feel better I am 48 (well remembered some of you on the thread before) and having my first baby... Pregnancy has been ok - suffered from odd stuff mainly, eg CT and plantar fasciitis, insomnia and this week I have been blessed with piles!!!!! But overall I feel lucky nothing major to worry about. Although dont think i could have managed ft work or other DC as well) So you are def not so old.
Tarlia thanks for heads up on wind factor - going to add peppermint tea to my list of essentials.
