well, my appt went ok, will get blood test results in 3 weeks so will know then if I have to have a specific birth ie planned CS, induction, epidural, whatever.

I've also had some odd things happening recently like shortness of breath etc, which the MW said is common in later pregnancy but also because of the protein s problem she's asked me to see the doctor to get checked out, so I have an appt there for 9am tomorrow morning. Sure it's fine, just really unpleasant

You fell off TIO!! Disaster!

Just putting my feet up after a really stressful day at work. Am feeling quite guilty about going on mat leave at all which is pissing me off tbh as I have as much right to have a baby as the next person!! Actually though for once it is other people causing the stress for the head which is horrible for them but at least it's not me being awkward.

I'm finding it quite hard going keeping on at 100% at work - anyone else the same? I realise if I'm teaching I can hardly take a back seat but I've not been taken off break duties or anything and it's all just a bit full on. I'm wondering if I'm just going to have go a bit earlier this time - I'm aiming for 36 weeks which should be fine but I'm struggling already Hmm Added to which I've been asked to make sure all my reports are done before I go on mat leave (they're due for mid June). We wouldn't usually start writing them until the beginning of June by which time I'll definitely be on ML, so part of me feels it really shouldn't be my problem, but at the same time - who else is going to write them? Just bad timing.

I always find the baby's position seems to change when I'm in school, movements reduce and change place like it's just burrowing away trying to hide Hmm Makes me feel sad that it's stressed out there!!!

In other news, dd's potty training is finally having some positive effect! Woohoo!

I can never find this thread! Due 12th June with dc3. Horrible pregnancy so far. Hg l for first trimester so was in hospital for fluids. A heavy bleed at 12 weeks. Now I have awful spd-only just back at work after another 2 weeks off. I'm huge. Everyone is commenting on my size. I can't sleep at night. Just bleaurgh.

AnythingNotEverything · 12/03/2015 20:04

Most of our chatter is on FB these days Smile

New shoes what a grim time you're having. Have you been signed off work? Hope you're managing. I forget how fortunate I am to be healthy sometimes so will stop whining!

Newshoesplease · 12/03/2015 20:25

Whine away anything! I had an absolute breeze my first pregnancy, wish I'd realised at the time! Have send a pm to be added to the fb group. Sometimes it's just nice to talk to others in your position! Was signed off until last week but chose to go back as I was slowly driving myself mad by watching scandal constantly and wondering what everyone in the real world was up to! Couldn't escape the spd paid being at home anyway. This pregnancy will definitely be my last, roll on June when we all get to hold our squishy babies!

Bazza2 · 13/03/2015 13:37

Just passed my driving test woooooooo! Am in shock. Mainly because I can't celebrate with gin. Hurrah!

Well done, Bazza! The world's your oyster now!! Smile

jazzyjenbo · 15/03/2015 00:37

Yay congrats bazza!

Pas... My dd has just decided the time was right for potty training, i really dont know how we managed it but she was dry in the day in 3 days! Wearing pull ups at night but they are pretty much dry in the morning but will stick with them for awhile to save on wet sheets!.... Went to toys r us today to buy her a bike as reward, the one she wanted was out of stock so she was happy to wait for us to order it and settled for a couple of new princess dolls instead.

pasbeaucoupdegendarme · 15/03/2015 07:54

Ah, good for her jazzy Smile

My dd was been a pain in the backside about it really! She was "ready" in terms of knowing what was going on and being able to express it verbally about a year ago (we first tried last Easter) but has had The Fear about it and just refused to go anywhere except in a nappy. Has proved she has amazing bladder control though!! Two weekends ago we were just foul to her and basically bullied her into weeing on the loo by refusing to let her have a nappy on all day Hmm It was horrid but lo and behold once she'd done a wee she realised it wasn't going to kill her. We've had quite a few ups and downs over the last fortnight about her refusing to go it she needs to, but she's so so much better than she was and she is reliably dry too which is great for going out. We have a "Potette" loo seat too to take out with us and had a breakthrough yesterday when she used it to wee at the cafe when we were out - hurrah, another fear beaten! We're still providing nappies for poos because she gets horribly constipated so we're not even going there yet, and she's not dry at night but I'm very proud of her Smile

Sorry for the post that should have gone in the potty training topic!!

Thanks chook, we were amazed at the images we got, never had 1 before and would totally recommend it.
She did lots of baby checks aswell and gave us a weight and length estimate.
