BTW to cure pg cramps drink half a pint of hot milk before you go to bed. Works every time.

BoffinMum · 20/02/2009 22:10

I would recommend it Nutty, along with the nookie if you can.

I did actually do a happy dance for real. Even five minutes off from this godawful condition is a blessing. I have had a further quick experimental walk, and he has clonked his head down again, so there's more pressure on the central bone area, but it's still not as bad as it was. I wonder what it will be like in the morning.

The point DH made was that if this can happen because of a bit of nookie, then I am likely to be one of the people who gets better quickly after the birth. This is the kind of thing I like to hear!!

BoffinMum · 20/02/2009 22:26

I am off to refill my water glass DOWNSTAIRS to see what happens.

SmuttyNuttyTaff · 20/02/2009 22:29

i hate to say i told you so BUT i said something similar yesterday (not about the nookie lol) just that you would recover quite soon post baby

OK - full report of trip downstairs.
No hands needed on bannister whatsoever (normally I have to heave myself up).
Coccyx RHS twinges a bit, so clearly something is still not right, but frankly it is arguably just about within normal tolerance for late pg.
I am not expecting it to last, but as I say, considering how bad it has been for the last three days and more importantly all day today until now, this is amazing.

Not thought of trying a pillow for leg cramps - sounds a good idea! I know my mum always slept with extra pillows when preg, but I always just have the 1 under my head! lol

SmuttyNuttyTaff: What's the buddy system? Guess I've missed something by not keeping up with thread!

mrsfossil: Not sure I could stomach a banana at bedtime! I get enough heartburn at nights, so usually eat nothing after dinner! Occasionally a bowl of cereal, but usually regret it when I feel dead miserable within the hour!

BoffinMum · 20/02/2009 22:32

I am sending you some of my magic, Nutty, so you have an SPD interlude as well. xx

Off to bed now - will report more in the morning. Night night.

SmuttyNuttyTaff · 20/02/2009 22:34

Sorry, just after I posted DP and my brother turned up and we got distracted with Thai takeaway and beer (one San Miguel for me only, you'll be glad to hear) DS went to bed without waking up after conking out on the sofa, then fell out of bed later and was discovered fast asleep on the floor of his room. Poor lamb

Necklace is silver, heavy ovals and very lovely. Very pleased with it.

Pram company, sadly, is all over moneysavingexpert.com as a totally incompetent bunch who occasionally deliver what you ask for 6 weeks later, but mostly you spend your whole life chasing them for a refund

Ah well. Shall hold out until next week and then start asking for my money back.

LMAO at the idea of Nutty and Boffin in mobility scooters like heavily pg cowboys!

BB - Don't you fancy just getting signed off completely? Don't worry too much about not being engaged. They can do this at anytime. And hooray for a beautiful head.
I got told at an early scan that I had beautiful blood veseels.

Babypringle - Good to hear from you. You sounds like you have a lot on your plate, I hope you get a chance to relax before the baby arrives.

Nutty - Do you have a list of the opt outs aswell so I don't go chasing anyone who has already responded? I'm starting to look like a loon chasing people around the boards .

RachelinScotland - Fingers crossed for the scan. x

PuzzleRocks · 20/02/2009 22:47

GingerSarah - Love the bump art.

PuzzleRocks · 20/02/2009 22:50

Wow Boff, what a fantastic day. Bet your glad you made the effort to go out now. The wagon bit made me laugh. Very Dom Joly.
