Attempting to catch up now
Hey Madmouse I was reading about those mats for under the sheets in case your waters break ? saw them in the NCT catalogue may have to get one. Re bras, I was a 32E and am now 36G and I always buy all my bras from Bravissimo (they are online too) I have 2 very comfy Royce sleep bras from there at the mo and I am going to get measured for nursing bras at 33 weeks which is probably too early but the shop that I want to get measured at is in a different city from the one I usually work in) Glad all went well at the MW this week at my appointment my blood pressure was much lower it has been really high.
Tripletsandtwins ? that?s wonderful news I am so, so pleased what?s this about being in your 20s? My DH isn?t into poker or gambling ? he?s a Scotsman after all!
Nicky6 hello thanks for your compliments on my posts really hope the murder trial doesn?t run on!! Hope you managed to escape from the conference to see your brothers my DH?s English team is Man Utd. Did you enjoy the fireworks? I love them too how was the AN class?
Susiemj ? take it easy hon! I find full rolls such an effort! hope you are feeling better after the tummy bug.
Hey Jenswish/Luckysalem ? how awful about work! Are you ok? That?s worrying about your DP not being allowed to stay with you if it?s a night birth I know my DH is not able to sleep on the ward like they can at some hospitals but I think he can stay as long as he wants and that visiting hours don?t apply to him ? must check that though will try your sex predictor at home sorry the GP was mean (most of them are in my experience!) a course in January sounds VERY optimistic hon!
Awen ? (and clllleeeeeeecnnnnchhhhhhhh! Keep forgetting! ) Re bras all my day bras are wired (as I said above, I?m a 36G at the mo, 32E pre pg) and I have been assured that if they fit properly ? i.e. the wires don?t dig into the soft bits but rest on the bone then there is no risk of damaging milk ducts or getting mastitis. Do you think it is varicose veins ?down below? that are making you ache? I?m getting swelling in my face and fingers and often wake up with pins and needles in my fingers ? ankles and feet seem ok though. Glad all was well at the MW, it hurts when they are rough doesn?t it, mine was rough this time!
Sabinar ? thanks for your post on my slings thread ? I shall check those out your job sounds interesting thanks also for your advice on the NCT. I decided to book into those too they are at my local hospital so I expect that there will be local ladies there, the cost was £120 so not as bad as I expected so we decided to totally go over the top and go to all the classes the active birth one is after the NCT ones end so it?ll be a good focus on the birth itself I guess (bet I end up with an emergency section under a general now!) One of my pals on the TTC Graduate thread has just had her baby boy at home ? she had a great experience you sound very chirpy! I?m impressed that you are still flying; I?ve refused to fly any more!
Amani ? sounds like you are nesting sorry to hear your DH got sent away after the last birth ? just when you wanted him around too hope the bad tummy is better. I am finding that my baby kicks to the inside more than the out at the moment. Sorry to hear about the infection
Ayreshirelolo the M8 is so much fun isn?t it!? we must have crossed as we would have been going the other way! Your Sat night sounded exhausting! I had a tiring but excellent weekend with my sisters and two nephews
Fruitful so pleased to hear that you are now home!! Take it easy now!
Lilyloo LOL at your birth prep I am so tempted to try a homebirth hearing all you say but I think with my blood issues I should just accept that the hospital is the safest place for me and Beanie
Hey Gingeme how is DH after the op? hope you had a lovely birthday and some nice pressies! I must get my stuff on to eBay too we have lots of furniture in anticipation of the Spain move. Good luck with your sales and the purchases! I have been really successful lately got loads of things at good prices!
Lots of you are getting lots of rib action my beanie is nowhere near my ribs ? or not that I can feel ? it is currently head down, body to left but it does change to centre and to the right but no other positions really.
Neuro hope you are still taking it easy. Lovely to distinguish body parts, I can?t yet!
Hey Fluffy the party sounded great we had similar here ?DNephew1 (4) loved the noise and the colours but DN2 (18 months) cried throughout! Hope everyone in your house is better and that the leg/hip is better. I feel I am slowing down I have to say, the 45min walk to and from the MW was quite an effort on Monday. Sounds like you?ve got a mad week, take it easy!
Mixedmama ? hope your DS is feeling better now
Beller used to like Dragon?s Den but kind of went off it a bit! I think the dragons are a bit sarky sometimes! How was your day off? Was the injection sore? Nathan sits on the couch with me too, much more comfy! Did you get a chair? I still really want one but DSIL has forgotten she wanted to buy us something I think how was the AN class?
MrsBiscuit my DH would never let me watch those programmes when he?s in the house! I can understand why you are P?d off, you want the support at your first AN class at least
Lulubump ? ball does sound a bit low ? I?m 5ft6 and I think mine is just a standard one but I think my bum is higher than my hips on it. My weight is rocketing now too that?s 19 ½ pounds now. MW told me on Monday that 20 pounds was the average but I wasn?t sure if she meant up to this stage or overall! Sorry you had such a bad night, are you feeling better?
Hello KatyT
Hey Bettymamma ? thanks for missing me! You are the only one who did Hope your DD is better now. LOL about the Spooks virus, not nice! There is no way that I am telling my DH that you can drive with contractions!!! I hate driving and am already trying to convince DH that I am too pregnant to drive!
