July 2016 Babies (8) - 3rd trimester here we come

[Ellizardo]

Hoping this works as total techno-luddite! Happy Saturdays all.

I'm still away on holiday, but just checking in to say that I am very much thinking of you and your little boy, Fifi. I hope everything has gone well this morning.

Good luck Fifi! Thinking of you x

Trying to keep up ds1 has just had his new bedroom made so I can start getting nursery ready for baby

33 + 5

Best of luck fifi and yes you are in fab hands. Can't wait to see your lovely new baby

mascara sorry to hear you've been in hospital, I do hope everything is ok?

beaut sorry to hear you're poorly, try and get some rest (if you can) with some cold drinks/water.

bluebell hope you are having a lovely time away with lots of relaxing and hexagon-making.

gnat sounds like you've had a lot on your plate hope all goes well at your midwife appointment today

youandme that all sounds very stressful and situations like that really stress me out in pregnancy also. If taxi-ing can eliminate this then I say it's worth while.

Really sorry to hear of work loads / stresses. I really advise in my experience/opinion of taking it easy, it isn't worth the stress, especially when it starts affecting you. I think I've taught my last class now and my body is already feeling more recovered. Sometimes our bodies are just telling us when enough is enough.

Dawned on me I can say 5 and a half weeks til due date today- made it seem sooner!
And I thought I would go over with my previous but they were born at
38 + 5
40

Oh and I cannot remember who mentioned it but I had awful lower back/period type pains last night, and I think it was accidental that I also had some tummy tightenings. Glad it stopped after a while to put my mind at rest.

34+2

I hope everything went well today Fifi.

Luca born at 10:48 weighing 2.6lbs

Afternoon ladies!

Last week in the office!!!! Woot! I am so excited. We move house tomorrow and then I am pretty much working from home with the odd meeting here and there over the next month. Work guys are going to come up to my new town occasionally for a coffee shop work day and plan out a few things.

Sorry I haven’t been keeping up with the thread (reading but rubbish at finding the time to update). Handover at work has been more work that I ever thought it would be. Not only do I have a new person working under me but I also have to map out work for future hires that aren’t even here yet.

So house move this weekend then a week off with my DD who will be starting a new preschool the following week. She is really starting to understand (3 years old in July) that mummy has a baby inside her. School as said that she’s sweet to the baby brothers and sisters of others when they visit so hoping she settles in okay. I am due on the 2nd of July and preschool wraps up on the 23rd so have a few weeks where she has fun all day and not stuck indoors with a baby.

Check list for the next few weeks as I have been rubbish this pregnancy: get the hynobirthing cds back out, get to pregnancy yoga at night for some me time, get the birth ball a good bounce, remember what my pelvic floors are and start exercising them, get all the baby stuff out of storage.. and start making some meals to put in the freezer so my family doesn’t live off pizza.

Aw fifi what a legend! Luca is absolutely wonderful and so serene (ha!). Hope you're ok too. First of the July babies in May, and just in time for the bank holiday! Congratulations xxxx

Congratulations Fifi!! I hope all is going well.

Congratulations Fifi!! I hope all is going well.

Oh my goodness fifi he is gorgeous!! Congratulations! You must be super proud! Cannot believe the first of our babies is here! Feeling very emotional. Hope you are both doing really well, thank you so much for sharing

Well done and congratulations fifi, Luca is so cute. Hope you recover from the C section quickly and aren't in too much pain. Have you been able to have a cuddle?

Congratulations Fifi, little Luca is beautiful!!

Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful news with us so quickly. Hope you are both doing well.

Such an exciting day for our thread. I'm even more impatient to meet our little surprise now :)

Have a wonderful and magical time getting to know each other, and hope you can go home very soon

Congratulations Fifi, hope you are both ok and being well looked after, he's a little treasure. Take care in the next few days and hope you get to spend plenty of time with your baby boy xx

Congrats Fifi and welcome Luca!

Fifi he is adorable and lovely hat as well can I ask where it's from? Hope you are both doing well. Can't believe we have our first July baby eeek!x

Congratulations Fifi! Beautiful baby Luca looks very calm after giving you all that worry :)

Congratulations fifi! He looks so perfect. Hope the section went smoothly and you're both recovering well. Like some of the others have said, I can't believe the first of the July babies is here. Makes everything seem much more real.

gnat I'm sorry to hear about your dh's auntie. I hope she's on the mend now. It's understandable that you didn't want your mil to help with the baby things. I've even told my dh that I want to wash and iron all the clothes for the first time. There's only this one opportunity to do it first.

cookies glad you're feeling stronger after finishing your classes. Hope you manage to relax a bit now.

photographer good luck with the move this weekend!
