April TTC girls! Where there's a new baby! Tons of BFP's! And lots more to come!

It must be awful to feel so crap Tori. It has been the mood swings with me more than anything physical. Hope you feel better soon. I am in bed already. Have been here an hour nearly.

Going shopping early tomorrow for food and to stock up freezer and then that is us done really. Not intending to anywhere near big shops again over holidays.

House to clean for Tuesday when PIL coming up with Grandmas for a few hours then we are just going to have a quiet, relaxing time by ourselves.

Cupcake, get some rest and enjoy your week off from Monday. Bet DS is going to love Christmas.

What happened to DH and his army application- has he had the interview yet? Just remembered about it.

OK actually Ducky. Always need the break this term and by the time it is time I would be going back, baby will be here, or almost!

DH is home with two huge pizzas. I might manage a slice, I haven't had my healthy roasted veggies yet.

Cupcake - being a 12/14 is not a 'destroyed' figure!

Awe how you feeling about leaving work?

Fingers crossed 21!

Sorry should say 18lbs

I have only put on 16 lbs in total- have actually lost a bit some weeks- but I have been trying to eat healthily and exercise and have definitely lost some fat. I can see it on my face and back. That is why they did the scan, to check his growth. He is fine. Hopefully, I will end up a bit lighter

Yes, have finished work today. Came home with a car load of presents- everyone was lovely. Have had a couple of hours sleep on the sofa.

DH is out for a couple of drinks with his mates from work so I have the house to myself. The soup maker is on and I am having homemade soup followed by roasted vegetables for tea.

Then a bath and jimjams on.

Planning to test 31st December cupcake if no Af before.

Cd 14 today feeling very cramps had positive opk cd9 so not sure if that is a good sign

I didn't weigh myself poppet but foud I put quite a bit on but then lost it towards the end. I think I'm actually a bit smaller than before as my trousers are all a bit looser

Ds is 11 days old now and I'm back in all my old clothes but my tummy is still a bit flabby, have been trying to do some excercises while he sleeps but it causes the bleeding to be worse

Hello ladies good to hear everyones doing well ! Question about dreaded weight gain ! How much do you put on in the end ?! It seems never ending . I am quite petite and have put on around 10kgs at 33 weeks . I really dont want to put on any more !! I am not one of these people who tend to worry about weight but no more please !!

I think it's just like a very heavy/thick discharge lulu (pregnancy is bloody glamorous!) but it might not come away with you knowing, I think sometimes tey can come out when you go to the toilet and with dd mine came with my waters (just looked like blood tbh) about 15 mins before she was born. Is it your last day at work today lulu?

cupcake the midwife probably can put them straight aswell if they are reluctant to book one! I was quite shocked when I went to mine, it's in the hospital but it was on the top floor I hadn't been to before, it was a mess compared to the rest of the hospital!

Think my stitches are getting better now, they aren't too sore any more (still can't sit on hard seats) but (TMI!) I was almost brave enough to wipe! Didnt, but was almost brave enough!

She didn't say how big itmight be, just that it can be. blood stained, or not and can vary in colour. Didn't sound the nicest of things. DH is looking at photos of them on his Ipad, says they are horrible some of them and I will throw up if I look. (I am not good with human vomit or waste of any kind). DH will have to deal with poonamis

I don't think it's too bad losing your plug lulu, I didn't notice losing mine with dd, with ds it apparently came when they broke my waters, I didn't see that but I said the pads they put under me looked very bloody and they said that's what it was

Ducky, I get night sweats. I hate them. I like to be cool at night. Midwife said they are very common before and after birth - not just in menopause!

I can't think babies are that comfortable by 38 weeks. He looked all folded up this afternoon. He must want to stretch out and have a good move around surely.

Tomorrow is my last day at work for somewhere between 8 and 12 months! I do need to stop but at the same time can't get my head round the thought. Midwife said once I stop and the baby arrives, I will forget about work.

DH and I are both wondering about 'losing' the 'mucous plug' Is it very big? Will I notice?

Glad your feeling better cupcake I think epu's are just self referral but it depends who you get on the phone when you call. My mw booked mine for me so if you have no luck id say discuss it with your mw and maybe she will book it for you

Just had to run and get ANOTHER pack of maternity pads that must take my total up to at least 10 packs now and it's probably wishful thinking that I just got one more pack! And I either have a crazy infection or awful never ending night sweats I feel so attractive ATM haha

I'm loving hearing all about your pregnancies ladies :)

Cupcake I hope that you'll be feeling less worried soon so you can enjoy the pregnancy experience.

I really like your outlook Siarie :)

Midwife thinks he weighs about 7 1/2 lb. Said my cervix is effaced and thinks I will lose mucus plug soon. But said likely still to go to 40 weeks. Everything fine. Saw his face very clearly. DH cried, I was a bit gobsmacked really by it all.

I know it's hard to say cupcake but do you think you will feel better after 12 weeks? If you think the worrying will be ongoing, maybe you should try the hypnotherapy? It's not for everyone but i found it relaxing
