Some of you know that I've had a few issues with pain over the last few days and I've had some not so succesful trips to the Doctors and pharmacists where they were about as useful as a chocolate fireguard.
This morning though, I went to the Doctors and well the guy must have been a locum because I've never met this particular Doc before. It all went well by the way, he gave some co-codemol and was very sympathetic. But, he was Dr McDreamy in the flesh. I had one naughty hormone that was gushing in my ear throughout the whole appointment pointing out his various positive attributes, and another one cursing my stupidity that I didn't put on any mascara before I went to the Doctors.
I seriously should have hung around outside the local med school in uni faking fainting fits and stuff.
Apart from that I nipped into work to sort out some final bits. I had to use the local office as I wasn't driving for over an hour to send an email. I'm going to miss them all, I loved going to work. I hope I'll feel the same way when it's time to go back.
Pixie Yay!! Thats so exciting, you'll be holding your LO by the weekend.
Worrisome They say the start of labour is a bit like period cramps, go for a walk and see if you can get things moving a bit.
Oneof8 Don't forget to ask yourself for a raise.
Kurly I used up a weeks worth of leave, had two days off and used a heck of a lot of flexi time when I was in my first trimester. I felt like death warmed up. Some people have breezy pregnancies where they can work right up till their due date and others end up on bed rest the entire time. I think it's one of those things, you can't help it. Don't feel guilty please, you're growing a person and that takes a hell of a lot out of you.
Bunny Funny you should post about that, I've been walking past the salon and wondering if I should take a walk on the wild side and get myself looking a bit tidier down there. How long does a bikini wax normally last before you get regrowth?
Chance As a former CTS person, I can not recomend wearing a splint enough. If you feel you can, try wearing it at night as this way it gives your wrist a bit of a break. Can you go see a private physio for a one off session? I had some and it really did the trick for me.
Halo Bizarely my friend actually makes knitted boobs for groups like this, she said it gives her great amusement to knit a breast. In all honesty I can kinda see why.
Also I was wondering, I know we've talked about the idea of a post natel topic, but I've seen other threads that kind of lump it all together with babies and pregnancy on the one thread. Do you think thats worth doing or should we keep it separate?
