Just thought I'd better start a new thread for those of you who would like to see updates before the old one is totally full.

All still good here! I've been a bit low on iron but the tablets REALLY don't agree with me. So I've started just taking one in the morning with orange juice, and having a spoonful of Floridix in the afternoon and making an effort to eat spinach and red meat.
I've been feeling baby OMG moving around a lot more now he's getting bigger and stronger, which is lovely although slightly alarming at times!

We've probably got a maximum of 7 weeks to go now as I understand the drs are not keen for older mums to go much over 39 weeks. Eeeek.
Will keep you all posted.

Congrats op so excited for you

Nottogetapenny · 26/07/2022 21:03

From your very first post us ‘aunties’ have had the pleasure of going through this with you! You let us into your secret at the beginning and we are privileged to be here when you give birth to your baby boy! 💙😘

BeeandG · 26/07/2022 20:57

Exciting times. Good luck. We are all rooting for you.

NothingIsCertain · 26/07/2022 20:53

Oh OP I feel I have gone around every emotion with you since your very first post.

I hope LO is either here snuggled in your arms, or not too far away!

SunsetandCupcakes · 26/07/2022 20:47

I am so glad to read other mnetters are as invested as I am. If you write it down it sounds batshit 'I'm really excited, nervous and invested in the arrival of a baby due to a woman that I have never and will never meet, a woman who I don't even know their name but that feels part of my life, and is someone that I have much more interest and care for than some of my own extended family'

MadeForThis · 26/07/2022 20:40

Good luck

Marylou62 · 26/07/2022 20:30
