June 2015 - the one where we impatiently count down to baby's arrival

[comeagainforbigfudge]

Shiny new thread for us all

Re the h+m dresses, if anybody also wants them...the basic non-maternity ones in your usual size should fit you fine. H+m cut everything small except their jersey/cotton maxi dresses, it seems.

I think I might venture to also today.
Although I went into town for lunch yesterday (and bought my expensive but gorgeous bubble bath whilst there) but was in agony by time went for train. Only out a few hours as well

Anyway, aldi. Not that I really need much more baby stuff, but thinking I might as well. Not like I've much else to be getting on with.

I bought one of those adult colouring in books yesterday as week but no pencils. So will get them whilst out

Alis, definitely with you on the trousers front. I saw my mw yesterday and as I was wearing a dress just had to hoik the whole lot up for her to measure etc. I apologised for the expanse of leg on show but said I couldn't hack another minute in trousers that slide down under my bump every time I move!!

I hear you re trousers! I wore under bump jeans to work yesterday....they angered me greatly.

I'm fact, I have an nct session tonight I'd best consider clothing for...as I'm wfh today, I'm still in my jama bottoms.

My waters went at 8pm... Just a waiting game now x

Just to let those of you not on fb know that baby James arrived by ELCS on Tuesday morning, weighing 8lb 12oz. He's doing great and already feeding like a pro (very different to DD!). Absolutely in love with him!

Can't wait to hear from you, jazzy!

Good luck jazzy

Congrats cup lovely news!

Aww lovely news cup

Good luck jazz

I had a hellish sleep last night. Restless legs galore. Very little need to go pee though. Shattered this morning but going to get up and have a mini tidying spree then I'll just vegetate relax and will baby to move

Hope every one else is doing "okay" under the circumstances

Morning!
Just checking in, hope everyone is ok. Lots of babies here already! :)

I'm 36+3 now and I fractured my ankle last week so have got a 'boot' on my left leg. Argh!

I have finished work now though so trying my best to concentrate on resting it so it can heal asap!! I ideal want the boot off before baby arrives by elcs in less than 3 weeks!

Not sure how realistic this is however...

Oh dear jackie just what you need! What did the docs advise you to do? Just mind and keep your eyes peeled for signs/symptoms of DVT. Not to scare you, just to be aware. Bossy pants that I am I can't help it sometimes

Now on a side note, I just remember baby had some weird movements last night. Like a shiver, really rapid movement that lasted a couple of seconds. Anyone felt something similar? I've decided baby was trying to sympathise with me and my restless legs so was doing its own version

Hello All - just checking in and I see that a lot has happened!
Congratulations cup, fantastic news!
Good luck jazz, let us know when baby arrives....

I am now 37+1, yay!

So very proud to announce the birth of my beautiful daughter

After a 1.5hr labour. I will post birth story later on when i get chance x x

jazzy massive congrats on the birth of Florrie... Lovely name and what a quick birth!!!

Congrats jazzy

Feeling very "off" tonight. Might just go to sleep...Oh, that's right at this stage of pregnancy sleep isn't comfortable.

Feeling a tad jealous of the babies arriving as well. Still, the end is in site for all of us at least (or so I keep telling myself).

Hope everyone else is feeling okay. X

jeez, tired pregnancy brain *sight not site

I've been awake since 6am. Wail!!
Only fell asleep about 2ish. But cannot fall back over. Lying in bed,resting and contemplating what to do. Think I might as well get up. Might have a cup of tea. That will make me feel great, won't it?!

Is it wrong of me that I'm starting to wish baby still breech and that I will have to get a csection? I mean if I'm getting this little sleep, I should at least have my baby to coo over

I'm not a morning person. Can you tell?
Hope you all had a better night sleep than me

Love waking up at 3:30, it's my favourite

Also, symptom spotting seems to have returned since reaching "full term". Every twinge, period pain like cramp, etc.... Could be a long few weeks!

Comeagain - hope you got a better nights sleep tonight.

Ooo, chook, wasn't your sweep yesterday? Any signs yet?

Oh congrats sunbathingcat

Trying, I seem to have slept fairly well as only just woke up. Up a few times to pee. But nearly 7 hours sleep all told. Just a shame my throat is sore and I'm all snottery.

Can always find something to moan about

Congratulations Sunbathing!

Thanks everyone
