Barbie big sympathies coming your way (but is it wrong to say your rant made me chuckle?) Does sound like it's worth checking out with the mw though. Hope things improve. If it's worth anything, I had a real downer stage a couple of weeks ago when everything hurt and I just couldn't imagine another 3 months like that, but now, at 29 + 3 I'm feeling a lot better. Rediscovered the sleep groove (chucked out the rubbish 'special' pillow that cost me £30, in a midnight rage and went to normal pillow between knees, small cushion in lower back). And I've just accepted it and slowed down a - A LOT. Though with all your other commitments I can see how that is tough.... We will get there though, and it'll be worth it!
Jasmine I too am also clenching. Though perhaps not for long. At pregnancy pilates the other day, teacher mentioned that very soon I'd not be able to 'engage' the pelvic floor and actually in the last couple of months we should be concentrating on softening it and making sure we can relax it, to help with the birth. Has anyone else been told this?
Lisascat very well done indeed for not killing your mother. Definitely earned a little glass of something treatful.
I am cold-ridden. Does anyone know if it affects the baby in any way. Him indoors says not, and that that is what the placenta is for. I'm not so sure. If I have a cold, doesn't baby have a bit of a cold too?
Just waiting for our Chinese takaway to arrive...
