People did shout at me but I was on a mission - was more scared of DH than the cars tho!!!

Glad I entertain you Springy my love!

SpringySunshine · 22/03/2009 12:35

I'm not laughing at the reality - I see that that was horrible & stressful. I feel really sorry for you with what really happened. I just like my fictional mental image of a hugely pregnant woman sliding off the dashboard out of the window & taking out nearby cars with her vastness

I am glad that your DH didn't tell you off, though - we're all too fragile to deal with that sort of thing at the moment, especially if you already felt so guilty!

I had heartburn lots last night but disappeared since then!!!
yay - i know have tea made for me and we are going to pop to the shops to see if they have any sunglasses he likes!!!

BabyBolat · 22/03/2009 12:38

oh I laugh at the reality - was very funny (not at the time but we have since laughed a lot!!!) but to think that i just didn't leave the remains lying there but actually got out stopped the traffic to pic up glasses broken in to three with the lenses fallen out!!!

mental image is equally as funny tho!!!

Haha, I've just had a big emotional meltdown with crying & rocketing blood pressure, but you've cheered me right up

SpringySunshine · 22/03/2009 14:23

SmuttyNuttyTaff · 22/03/2009 14:25

good eh!! you ok babe?? xx

SpringySunshine · 22/03/2009 14:34

Yeah, I'm fine. I just got really stressed about how much there is still to do for the baby & how little money we have, mostly.

& I feel physically quite crappy & I'm very hormonal, which hasn't helped.

It's really weird - my body is quite obviously gearing up to have this baby (I'm suddenly really spotty, my boobs are itchy, I feel really sick, I have period pain, diarrhoea & the bleeding) but I still instinctively feel like it's not going to happen very soon. I mean I can't say for sure that I'll still be pregnant in 2 weeks (I really hope I'm not!), but I'm certainly not going to be anything but pregnant for the next few days.

I was going to go into town & buy the last few things for my hospital bag (nothing essential) & a nursing bra, just in case, but I just don't feel up to it now. I want to hibernate until it's all over.

I'm not upset anymore, but I do feel like I'm in a really bizarre state of limbo.

SmuttyNuttyTaff · 22/03/2009 14:47

"I want to hibernate until it's all over." god i so know that feeling. ((hugs)) it will be over soon sweetheart, the last bit is truly the hardest (especially with all the contractions etc that you have) so frustrating. xx ((hugs))

In a way, I'm feeling a lot better about things today. I think mentally I'm a lot happier about the pregnancy stuff (not the list of things that need sorting before it's over!) because the end actually is in sight for the first time. There is progress. & not only is there progress, it's the kind of progress that it didn't look like I'd ever have, meaning that I may yet avoid the induction & EmCS I got threatened with

It's just that life's so stressful at the moment & I don't physically feel well enough to deal with it properly.

I'm not too bad, though. As I say, I'm feeling better now - I just had a moment.

How's the pain, lovely?

SmuttyNuttyTaff · 22/03/2009 14:59

Hurrah for progress!! I think its a wobbly time for everyone really just cos its so close but yet so far iyswim? so everything just seems so huge and daunting.

not too bad today ta, back to normal (not pain free by any means but bearable)

ooohhh dh said we're having chinese takeout tonight HOORAY

BabyBolat · 22/03/2009 15:02

((hugs)) springy! I am with you on the period pain, itchy boobs, spotty etc and am sure this is not the easiest time for you but having go to know you (albeit virtually) over the past 8.5 months I know you will be fine, you will be a great mother and hopefully once the pregnancy is over all the sickness feelings will go and you will be stronger in yourself!!

SpringySunshine · 22/03/2009 15:03

Well bearable is something, I suppose. I'm just so glad that I don't have constant pain like you & Boff, for example. I'm whingey enough without it

Speaking of unfortunate people, I wonder how Barb's recovering... We've not heard anything in ages.

BabyBolat · 22/03/2009 15:04

oooh new bathroom floor and chinese - lucky you - we are having fahittas!

SpringySunshine · 22/03/2009 15:05

We're all going to be fabulous, BB. It just seems insane that I'm going to go from being this huge, waddling mess to being a mother. I don't know how that's possible. Mothers are so grown up & responsible & always know what to do!
