Hi @Ausparent !

@katmarie I use a big U shaped pregnancy pillow at night and it's helped hugely with SPD. Having something between my knees makes turning over so much easier!

Is anyone else struggling to get up for work? 3 more weeks to go after today thank goodness!!! Just want to stay home with DS.

MegRam · 16/11/2017 07:55

@katmarie I've had SPD from 16 weeks (now 32+4). Here's what's helped me:

  • initially pillow between legs at night, now I have a whole body pillow. Support under the bump has really helped;
  • using an exercise ball in the evenings has helped me keep my posture good, rather than slouching on the sofa;
  • icing public bone before sleeping - gel ice pack or good old frozen peas;
  • regularly changing my position from sitting at work - going for a short wander around the office every 40 mins or so;
  • long and/or slow walking is out of the question though!
  • never crossing my legs!

I've been seeing a chiropractor every week since 18 weeks who has been regularly adjusting my pelvis and has kept me going, so I'm not having to use crutches or a belt, but i'm certain I would be if it weren't for her. I hope the physio helps and it does become too bad for you x

ElleMcElle · 16/11/2017 08:46

@Mummyme87 - Brilliant - thank you, have ordered them. Saved me a lot of traipsing around!

Lots of sympathy to those with pelvic girdle pain - I'm just having the first twinges of it at 32 weeks. Had a session with an osteopath this week and going back for a second next week - it has helped a bit and sitting on the fit ball is definitely a good plan.

millsbynight · 16/11/2017 09:12

Oh no... my morning sickness has returned (I’m 33+4) 🤢 Was sick 3 times this morning so had to call in sick for work. Really hoping it’s a one off and doesn’t continue or I’ll have to take mat leave early. I feel horrendous. It’s like the first trimester all over again 😩

Is anyone still waiting to join the Facebook group?

Waitingonasmile · 16/11/2017 12:22

Aww @millsbynight that was me on Tuesday! Out of nowhere was so sick all morning. Hope you feel better soon!

GruffaloSoldier · 16/11/2017 14:37

Sorry for late reply @ForumUsername I think cotton is supposed to be good at regulating temperature so better to layer up with cottons rather than other materials. Obviously wool is good too. I have got a few fleece bits but think I'll stick with cottons and wool materials in first few weeks, unless it's really cold! I have a star wrap from tuppence and crumble which seems really good.

@peachgreen hope you get all you need done before baby arrives! Exciting to have new house and new baby!

@Waitingonasmile I felt really run down for a couple of days after my flu jab. That was a few weeks ago. I have now got a heavy cold which is a pain and slowing me down even more than usual!!

Welcome @Ausparent!

@katmarie I have back and neck problems due to diastasis recti and I really notice if I haven't been wearing my support belt. I see an osteopath every two weeks and she said that my body is coping really well. I'm not sure if it will help you as different issues. It's made by Neotech Care and its on Amazon.

Hello to everyone else!

Ausparent · 16/11/2017 15:15

Well I went to the doctor yesterday and said I was feeling short of breath which I haven't with the other w and wanted 9th check it was normal and he said "Well you must realize you are quite old to be having children now!" I'm bloody 37!

The joys of navigating a foreign system!

Fattycowagain · 16/11/2017 15:59

Hello ladies,

I hope everyone is doing well!
If any of you would still like to join the Facebook group, now is the last chance! It looks like one of our number might be having her baby fairly soon and once babies start arriving, the group is closed to new members. So if anybody would like to join, please send me a pm and I'll add you. Any requests coming in after this Sunday can sadly enough not be added.

GruffaloSoldier · 16/11/2017 16:15

@Ausparent that's ridiculous! I'm 34 and have what you describe with shortness of breath and it's perfectly normal as baby will be pushing on your lungs when you walk. (Midwife said this).

Also my sister had her first at 39 and she was much fitter than me at 34 having my third.

Hi @Fattycowagain, I'll send you a pm to join the group, thanks!

klc75 · 16/11/2017 16:50

@Fattycowagain sorry to be thick but how do I pm you?!

Waitingonasmile · 16/11/2017 17:22

Thank @Fattycowagain

Wow that's so rude @Ausparent !!! I'm 30 and get so breathless too sometimes. 37 isn't old at all.

Hotpinkangel19 · 16/11/2017 17:29

@Fattycowagain can you pm through the app? I would like to join fb x

Ausparent · 16/11/2017 17:46

Thanks guys. I am not easily offended so I won't lie awake worrying about it!

ChocoMunchi · 16/11/2017 18:14

@Ausparent maybe ask for a test for B12 deficiency. I had no idea this was one of the side effects, I’d just put it down to being pregnant. Couldn’t understand how I’d gone so quickly from running 5-10k 3 times a week to not even being able to walk a short distance or up the stairs without being short of breath.

It’s definitely improved since receiving the B12 injections.

I’m 42 so definitely not about age!! 😡🥊

LoobysMummy14 · 16/11/2017 18:28

@Fattycowagain I have messaged you :)

shaaan1329 · 16/11/2017 20:09

@Fattycowagain it seems I am having trouble with gmail regarding the link to the Facebook group! I will PM you again!

Side note, suffering really bad with acid reflux today, I’ve been so lucky regarding symptoms so far but I’m finally starting to feel pregnant!

Ilikeeyes · 16/11/2017 22:23

I'm also having problems with the link to the Facebook group sorry!

Starting to get a lot of comments in work from patients asking when I'm due, expecting me to say any day now....nope, sorry 8 more weeks to go! Expecting an off-the-chart measurement for my next fundal height measurement tomorrow eep! Been on the 90th percentile both times so far, but I think it's my body just enjoying 'letting it all out' for once!!

Gemxo · 17/11/2017 10:02

Had my 4D scan lastnight & it was amazing!!

Here's our little boy at 30 weeks 2 days 💙💙

Mummyme87 · 17/11/2017 10:29

If I get asked again why I am still working at term I will kill someone. Two consultants both said I look 37/38weeks, woman in pret have me a free tea and biscuit because she thought I was 39weeks 🤨 I’m 31+4 today!!! However, with DS I looked term at 30weeks aswell.. he was 4.7kg

Ilikeeyes · 17/11/2017 15:50

Midwife says baby is breech and back-to-back ,which might be why my bump is so wide low down, and not at top. I'm 32 weeks so she said there's plenty of time for it to move. Plan to live on my gym ball for the next few weeks, anyone else have any suggestions that might help?

Mummyme87 · 17/11/2017 16:22

Check out spinning babies

shaaan1329 · 17/11/2017 17:15

Had my 31 week appointment today, final height measurement was 29 by first midwife and 28 by her boss who she went to get to double check her measurement. Booked in for a growth scan but have to wait until Monday at 11am.

I was measuring 27 at my 28 week appointment so worried, especially due to my significant lack of bumpConfused anyone had an experience with this?

Waitingonasmile · 17/11/2017 18:57

Lovely scan @Gemxo, it's so clear!

@shaaan1329 I have no helpful advice, but it's sounds like they are keeping on top of it and hopefully you'll get reassuring news on Monday. Flowers

Is anyone else getting sore lower legs? It feels like after I've been running and I've definitely not run for months. I'm just getting pathetically paranoid now it's getting to the time when pre e started last time. Blush

Finally started buying things!! Ordered an Ergo 360 babycarrier and a buggyboard.

Lenska999 · 17/11/2017 19:15

Gorgeous boy Gemxo 👶🏻 We didn't do the 4d this time round but they are amazing.

Feeling very excited as I got the date for my ELCS today ...28th December 💗👶🏻🍼 I had hoped for a bit earlier but they are fully booked, must be an Xmas rush
