Hi all,
I have been lurking but struggling to find time to post.
Ginger - CONGRATULATIONS!!!! 


I had a feeling we might get a HONK from you this month and I'm so pleased for you! I knew you wouldn't hold out until Friday
.
Kayz - that sounds awful, how upsetting. The poor driver
.
Star - poor you
, hope you feel better a good sleep.
I'm 27 weeks now (hooray) so just 12 weeks left until my c-section - eek. I had a GTT and blood tests last week and everything was fine, no diabetes or anaemia. Thank god I don't need another one of those, lucozade is DISGUSTING!!! I had to sit around for 2 hours after drinking it and felt sick the whole time - urgh! My SPD or PGP (whatever they call it these days) isn't getting any worse thank goodness. I am quite stiff and sore in the morning or after playing on the floor with C but it's managable otherwise. My midwife recommended using my birth ball and buying a bump support belt which has made a big difference
. I'm sooo pleased it hasn't gotten bad enough to make it difficult to get out and about and play with C, I know some people who've had it much worse. At the same time I am really sick of feeling overweight and unfit and I'm determined to tackle it asap after this pregnancy. DP got a bonus recently and he suggested I use some of the money to pay for a personal trainer - someone who can give me some motivation and help me to make the most of the limited time I have for exercise. Have any of you ever used a PT - was it worth it and how do I find a decent trainer who knows a bit about post natal exercise???
