Afternoon all,
So many messages since yesterday but I can't see any more babies!
I had my mw appt yesterday; lo is 2/5ths engaged apparently... and is no longer back to back (hurray!)
She said "oooh he's going to be a bonny baby isn't he?" I said, "why how much does he weigh do you think?" expecting some kind of reply based on my fungus height etc. "Oh I don't know, he just feels big." "How big?" "Well babies average anywhere between six and nine pounds so I'd say at the top end. But I could be wrong."
Nice to have a conclusive answer then.
Chocolatepenny I'm not going to bother with a TENS machine because I think I will want to sit in my big bath in the early stages and can't do that with wires on my back.
Rosy sorry you couldn't get your reflexology but the massage sounds even nicer!
Piffle how is your dd, and your littlest dog?
Spongecake how are your stretch marks btw are they feeling any better? I have started moisturising more often and although they still itch they are less stingy. Theblonde / Evenhope / Sazzy et al I am now riddled with stretch marks, they are all over the bottom half of my bump, and now are creeping their way up to the top, too! And I have them on my hips. I look like an Ordanance Survey map but in red.
Oh Sazzybee you poor thing all this waiting! Thank you so much for DT by the way, I got half way through with him yesterday and am saving going all the way until Monday when dh is back in work.
Eids that sounds really painful ironing your bump you deserve all those stickers! Have to say your dd's both sound as cute as they looked in those photos!
Kitty I think you should get a massage, or as you put it, "a good seeing to" as well, there must be someone in Brighton I remember that massive market was full of alternative-y type places someone there must do aromatherapy?
Laidback good luck with your bigger offer, I really hope you get the house it sounds lovely!!
Mistiek I'm sorry to hear you are getting contractions but to no avail. I hope it either kicks off so you can go au natural, or slows down to give you some peace & quiet, soon.
Muppet / Magpie good to hear you're both getting on well with your new babies!
Sorry if I've missed anyone!
I am going to be very bad and have a decaff coffee with some Baileys in it. I was watching the cricket but England once again seem to be throwing it away so I have to find something else to do now! Also have to ring the vets today, time for the pets to get Frontlined again, don't want them to come down with fleas just as Bertie's born, yuk!
