MagicalCreatures · 07/10/2018 13:05

I can't think of anything worse at the moment... already feels like my pelvis is crumbling I don't need my OH to contribute to making me literally walk like John Wayne & Susan boules love child!
Give me a nice hot brew and a kitkat over a shag any bloody day of the week! 😂😂

December2018 · 07/10/2018 15:44

Omg I just realised I'm 27 and sound older than a Pharaohs g-string!
....

I keep getting the rampaging horn but it's usually when DH is at work (or on nights), and by the time he gets home I've totally gone off the idea and just want an early night!

MagicalCreatures · 07/10/2018 18:53

😂😂 @December2018 I’m still picturing what John Wayne and Susan Boyles love child would look like.
@emwithme I have to admit, I’ve had the naughtiest dreams ☺️ They never involve my husband though 😂 And I don’t even feel bad about it. X

Thank you girls for making me laugh! I was gonna have a bit of a moan, but I'm not going to now. You've reminded me of the last time I DTD when I was pregnancy with my daughter, think I was about 36 weeks and my acid reflux was so bad, as soon as it was finished, I ran to the toilet and was sick. OH refused to do it again until the birth.

AGirlinLondon · 08/10/2018 11:21

Thanks @December2018 now I have to have a kitkat - my cravings are very suggestible!! 😂

emwithme · 09/10/2018 06:38

Ow! Things I love about the Third Trimester...waking up 30 seconds before the alarm (having spent ages unable to get to sleep) with calf cramp. Fortunately I could hop to the loo...

Athers666 · 09/10/2018 10:10

@December2018 Just seen your scan pictures, how super adorable?! Those cheeks though! Lovely little squish you're baking there!

December2018 · 09/10/2018 11:01

Athers he's beautiful isn't he!
I'm a very proud mummy right now, I would never thought my body was capable of creating such a beautiful little person I can't wait to meet him now

AGirlinLondon · 09/10/2018 11:31

On our scan last week you can already see that our baby looks like my OH - somehow I find that fascinatingly weird!

AGirlinLondon · 09/10/2018 14:02

Alright. Who else is starving all the time. Lock up your biscuits!!

December2018 · 09/10/2018 14:31

Yeah! If it's not nailed down I'm eating it!
And I'm obsessed with apple crumble & custard and fish fingers... in that exact order!
Wtf!.... I don't even like fish!! 😂😂

AGirlinLondon · 09/10/2018 17:31

@December my mum craved apple crumble when she was pregnant with me and it’s mt favourite now 😊

MagicalCreatures · 09/10/2018 18:37

Orange Caprisuns!!!!
I’d have your arm off for one.
And today I ate 2 pots of jelly. For no reason. I just had to have it. Stopped at Sainsbury’s especially 😂
@RomPom if you feel like you need a good moan then you should hun. We’re here to listen. But also glad we all made you smile. X

I know this is really sad ... and there are much more things to be worried about... but I am really stressing about stretch marks! A few silver ones have appeared on my hips and I’m so worried about being covered in them like many over ladies I see - and I just read you can never get rid of them. It’s actually making me cry tonight and I know it is so pathetic but I am very Upset about it :( currently 31 + 1

AGirlinLondon · 10/10/2018 14:49

@ameliaclem I’m not going to try any of the patronising ‘they are your tiger stripes from giving birth!’ Or ‘you’ll forget all about it when you have your baby in your arms’ stuff that I dislike so much. Suffice to say that beauty is so much more than skin deep and while it is not ideal, and quite normal to feel self conscious, they do fade and they will be such a tiny a part of you one day.

0lgaDaPolga · 10/10/2018 15:13

@ameliaclem don’t worry too much. I got loads of really angry looking purple stretch marks in my last pregnancy and honestly a few months later they had completely faded and you’d never know they were there unless you were looking super closely.

December2018 · 10/10/2018 15:42

ameliaclem I've got them too babe so your not on your own, I've got some on my legs too at the top, I just keep thinking to myself my boy will be worth every single one of them and it just comes with nature try not to stress hunni

DottyA · 11/10/2018 12:23

Hi everyone - just checking in for the first time in ages. I've been soooo tired and busy with work everything just feels like a blur. 28 weeks - feels more like 48! At this stage last time I was still going out dancing - now buying a pint of milk feels like an effort Grin.

@magicalcreatures I love indulging those random cravings! It's about the only indulgence you get in pregnancy!

balalalala · 11/10/2018 20:59

I've got new stretch marks added to my old stretch marks... I'm hoping they all decide to fade post baby!

December2018 · 11/10/2018 22:02

I've got a couple of them none on my belly yet but mostly on my sides and legs
Anyone getting leaky boobs??
I had a black bra on today and sorry if TMI but when I took it off to get washed I noticed white crusty patches inside??

SunshineSnowflakesDaydreams · 12/10/2018 01:51

My leaky boobs are the nicer of my 2 "leaks"! Sneezing is such a gamble!

emwithme · 12/10/2018 07:26

No new stretch marks here but I'm still 3.5 stones lighter than my heaviest ever weight (of 2008 ish) so am covered in them anyway! I first got them on my thighs when I had a growth spurt age 12 (grew 4 inches in 2 months) and then on my boobs when I was 17 and went from totally flat chested to a D cup in between lower and upper sixth!

No leaky boobs here yet but do have to clench my pelvic floor when I sneeze!
