Marking my place! I'm so pleased there's only 11 weeks to go. I am done with pregnancy.

Hello! Thanks for new thread, congratulations to luchi on Bundle's safe arrival, and lovely to see baby Arlo, hope the next two weeks pass quickly scandi.

Wow two babies already, i don't feel nearly ready for a new arrival, 3 months, eek! But already looking forward to not being pregnant and at the moment feeling like 3 under 5 will be easier than being a slow, lumbering, achy pregnant woman with 2 under 5....(will likely be proved very wrong in April!).

Hope everyone is feeling good. I had a 4 week break from sickness during which I had a stinking cold, and am now suffering from a litany of pregnancy related problems - thrush, piles, acid reflux, round ligament pain. Oh the joys.

However I only have 5 days left at work Grin

Hope some of you are still enjoying a bit of second trimester glow! Have just worked out that my section date is going to be either just before or just after Easter weekend - quite good timing for paternity leave with the May bank holiday at the end of the month for any babies arriving around then!

Hi everyone!

purpleviolet1 · 12/01/2017 21:31

Place marking! 29 weeks tomorrow. 11 weeks eek!!

peanut2017 · 12/01/2017 21:35

Hey there. Scandi what a beautiful little man & name! That's very tough that you can't spend time with him. Hope you are ok

Congrats Luchi delighted for you! Get some rest

I'm doing a gentle birthing weekend in a couple of weeks which I think is a very similar thing to hypobirthing. They have an app with meditations on it which I need to do a bit more of! Anything that can help Smile

Anyone thought about getting a doula? I love he idea of having someone experienced in birthing with me as well as my husband. Some of them do massage, reflexology and help to keep you clam etc

Hubble is feeling a bit funny about it which I can understand - doesn't want to feel left out. I just love the idea of having a mammy type who has been through it and lots of other births to be with me?

Avengerhart85 · 12/01/2017 22:06

Congratulations to the 2 arrivals, sending love & best wishes to both families.

13 weeks to go for me I need to start in the nursery Blush don't know where the time has gone!

marmitecheesetoast · 12/01/2017 22:27

Checking in, thanks for the new thread green!
27 weeks tomorrow also thinking where the hell has the time gone?! Still got so much to do on the house before we even get round to starting on the nursery or buying baby stuff ConfusedConfused slightly freaking out!

abercorn · 12/01/2017 22:45

Many congratulations Luchi and Scandi !

peanutbutter310 · 13/01/2017 03:24

Thanks for the new thread, just marking my spot!

LuchiMangsho · 13/01/2017 04:05

Thanks a lot. Will update. Not much to report. Expressing like a lunatic for now. Hope everyone else is well.

TopKittyKat · 13/01/2017 06:55

Thanks for the new thread.

I'm an April 9 too everdene

I really can't wait. I'm hoping to go until 24 March at work but am already finding it hard to stay focused.

Im starting to get the dreaded backache during the day and have a lot of hip and back achiness at night which wakes me up about 4-5 times a night. Also ace a permanent blocked nose. Other than that, symptoms aren't too bad.

I'm another one doing hypnobirthing. Grin

I hope everyone is doing ok...

CastleFeck · 13/01/2017 09:15

Hello

Thanks for the new thread.
Feeling sicky and grumpy, no blooming in sight with me.

petiteange28 · 13/01/2017 09:35

Thanks for sorting the new thread.

Can't believe it's 3 months to go.

Hope all is going well with the two arrivals!

LuchiMangsho · 13/01/2017 09:40

Mine is okay today. 48 hours old. This is the point at which they told us to expect less good news from. We are as prepared as we can be, I guess. However we got to cup his bottom last night and this morning he got so excited on seeing his father that he pulled his nasal prongs off!
