This is going to be a long one as I?ve got about 4 days to catch up on. We had a good trip down to Longleat, the monkeys didn?t do any damage to our car and ds loved every bit of the 2 days. We stayed in a B&B on Friday night and that totally confused him, we?d told him it was like a small hotel but he was very confused about us staying in some ladies house and didn?t get why he couldn?t go and explore her house!
Went to what might be my last Harlequins RL game this season yesterday, they have 1 more game on the 7th which is 4 days after due date, I?m hoping we can go and take the baby but depends on when baby is born and how sore all my bits are! I really, really want to go though as it?s the last game for quite a few of the biggest players and if we move back to Scotland we won?t be able to go next season.
Whoever it was who was asking about pooing- I am the same, several times a day, whereas I uses to be just once a day. And some piles too which thankfully aren?t sore, just a bit annoying.
Starlight- yes I?m nesting by proxy too. Or not so much nesting, more just ordering dh around! Or starting to do something like make the dinner then sitting down and falling asleep so he has to take over.
Sass- congratulations and glad to hear your birth was pretty untraumatic, esp when it sounds like it could have been quite traumatic if the placenta had had an unconclealed abruption.
Mamamuffin and potxola- I can also completely sympathise with the train track story. I?ve resorted to getting older children round to play so that they can play with ds and make train sets while I sit on the sofa and watch
Digitalgirl- I don?t think we ever used our top and tail bowl with ds, will have to think or a useful use for it.
Carrieon- I am also having an octopus, there is no way this ?thing? only has 4 limbs.
Eandz- your doc sounds like a total arse. Glad you?ve managed to sort something out.
Potxola- I?m with you on the being really nervous about having another baby too. Now that the date is getting close I am getting more nervous about it. About the labour, sorting out ds during the labour and then having 2 children at home. I think the fact that with ds his entire labour happened in hosp (I?d been kept in to be induced in the morning but he came himself first thing in the morning) isn?t helping. I?m worrying about things like what if my waters break somewhere embarrassing or the labour is really quick and they don?t believe me when I go into the hosp (they didn?t believe me last time as I didn?t look like I was in pain).
Lollipop- I?m the same with the reflux, it?s not bad during the day but is horrid at night. And yes I also think I shouldn?t moan because I could be suffering from worse things but it?s still horrid. I have 3 pillows, a cushion under my bump and another between my legs. When we were away at the weekend I forgot to take extra pillows and had a terrible nights sleep.
I am enjoying bits of being pg, I like the kicks (except in middle of night) and the comments from people and the shape of my bump and the fact that I haven?t had any problems so far but I don?t like the reflux and the waking up every time I want to roll over and feeling very uncomfy at night and the aching pelvis by the evenings and the stretch marks and the pain every time I walk into something coz I forget how much my bump sticks out! I?m not planning on having any more and I don?t think I?ll miss it to be honest.
