Spreadsheet here

Good luck at tommorows scans text orange and clapham xxx

Hope twins are moving around plenty now legally

Xx

Oh sorry. Good luck to orange tomorrow as well.

Thanks, good luck textbook too. Quite excited to see my little one again but also a bit nervous.

thanks textbook and fingers crossed for you too x

ana I was talking about earthquakes it was about two weeks ago when he kept changing his position completely. He is now settled head down so just kicking me in the stomach or in my sides. Do you know if your baby is already head down or still keeps swimming around?

pseudo and hayle lucky you finishing work this week!

clapham baby has generally been head down but had been shifting position so much this weekend that I don't know anymore.

Good luck to all you scanners, sending "hope it's not moved further down" thoughts to textbook

clapham I am very pleased to be finishing tomorrow. 8 hours on my feet is starting to take its toll. I reckon I could do another few weeks if my shifts were shorter tbh.

Fee up of not sleeping well/everything aching/being constantly attacked from the inside/needing a wee every five mins. Come on son, 37 weeks and you can make an appearance. (Just so I got time to get my hair cut once dd has started school )

Good luck with your placentas tomorrow Clapham, Orange and Textbook. I have my 34 wk midwife appointment tomorrow. Baby was breach at 31 weeks and I'm not sure she's moved much but I can't tell what the lumps are. Just got into bed and baby has had hiccups for about 15 minutes. Was cute to start with but now I want some sleep! Someone mentioned the waterproof sheet earlier.... Rookie question but do you get waterproof sheets for Moses basket / cot?

Just a quick note to wish Orange, Clapham and textbook good luck and placenta floating up vibes.

badger I had to read it twice too! Good luck with those bloods tomorrow fx.

Good luck tomorrow scanners. I hope the placentas have shifted...

Some movements - not the somersaults of yesterday, but some squirms and wriggles.

Shire. How are the pain in your pelvis? I had pains in my legs last week and the MW said it was because the head was resting on the nerves in my pelvis. She recommended sitting on all 4s. Worked a treat. After less than 10 mins baby must have moved slightly and horrible leg pain vanished. Came back once on sat night but this time only a couple of mins on hands and knees did the trick

If you ask your MW which way baby is lying they're usually more than happy to show you.

Ok, so Nat and anyone else, because I don't have Facebook, I think that if you click on my name you can see a picture of me plus bump (plus DD) taken last Sunday, so 34+1. I'll leave it up for a couple of hours tomorrow morning then whip it off again! It's profile, which is the only way you can really see the bump! As I've said before, I am smaller than I was with DD as its just all bump - I've lost weight in my arms snc kegs... Every ounce of calorie bring used to grow two I think.... Leg me know if it doesn't work.....

I can't click on your name legally, maybe your profile is still private?

Can't sleep tonight

Hope you got some sleep, orange.

Legally, you need to make your profile public, or add those that you want to see to your friends list.

Jelly how are you feeling today?

p-buttons I'm still here, jogging along but pushing for an early induction with consultant at my scan Thursday on the advice of GP and MW. I love the name Isla though would have to use Islay as in the island. It's very popular in SW London and Scotland, but who knows what will be in that top 10 at any given year. 2 fingers up to your BIL, MIL and FIL.

ruby getting lots of baby hiccups too. Yesterday both baby and I had hiccups together, which was odd, luckily not at night time!

Hayley hoping for a speedy, uneventful last shift for you!

Not a lot! Thanks Tarlia. DH up with toothache in the night too, what a pair! At least I am off work for another week so can nap/take it easy on bad sleep days. Really not looking forward to going back. Yay on last day for Hayle!

Tarlia I have been up all night with bad pelvic pain, sprinting is obviously not recommended at 35+ weeks pregnant. On paracetamol already this morning and think I will be wearing my very sexy support girdle today.

Hope the rest of you lovely ladies had a good sleep and good luck to all today's scanners

Holy SIATICA! Is all I can say this morning I suffer from it usually on and off but this is like an extreme version of it it cripples me to the floor as if I've been shot!! I hope the baby shifts off that nerve before long!!

legally I too am not able too click on your profile too view the pic xx

Grrr - my profile and my photos say available to all mumsnetters.... I'll have another go later on my laptop. When I look at my "public profile" it'd find and I can't see that it's set to private for editing etc... Argh.

This is so annoying!!

Good Luck to all scanners today, sending positive placenta moving thoughts to you all,
also to those with mw appts. baby head down movements to everyone else
Glad still ticking along tarlia fingers crossed for more answers this week with regard to induction.
and yey for last days and weeks of work! this thread is so busy already cant imagine what it will be like when were all off on maternity leave before babies start arriving

Awful night here so sending sympathy to everyone else that had bad nights sleep and aches and pains this morning. x

Hi all I vanish off site for a few days and we are on page 6 of a new thread! I can't keep up!

Hope everyone's scans go well today and blood tests as well. Hope overall everyone is surviving these last few weeks :)

I am struggling with worrying about birth to wanting her to come early as then she won't be as big and I might manage to have her as vbac rather than ending up with emcs - just going round in circles and ending up wanting to cry which is why I haven't been on for a day or two as just can't stop it all bubbling over - sorry :(

33 weeks tomorrow which means sweep in 6 weeks and due date is 7weeks away. It is fast approaching now!

I give up for now... I just can't see what I need to change - it looks to me like its all set to public!

Really good luck scanners x

Good luck to everyone today, and I hope you have a good last shift, hayle!

I can finally start counting down my last month of work. Our office etiquette dictates it's probably time for me to start thinking about some kind of leaving meal but I'm very lacking in inspiration.

Eek, just remembered - c section in two weeks today!

Thanks everyone... Good nights sleep compared to some but dd been up since 6am so I'm in a vile m
