Evening everyone
Mumatron - good luck with the clexane, poor you having to do that to yourself. I used to have to do xp for a while. Certainly couldn't do it to myself.
DF - Hope you can get something sorted for when LO is here, well meaning family will be the last thing you want around. But good on you for thinking about it now. I had no idea how much I'd hate having people around those few days afterwards. XMIL was staying with us for a few days after ds1 was born (lived a few hundred miles away) and god that was hell. Overbearing, wouldn't let me near him, I just ended up snapping at her constantly and behaving like a spoilt brat! Agree with what crazykat says, don't be afraid to tell them straight that you want some space, rest etc.
WLL - I think I first felt movement with ds2 around 13wks, but often used to get baby movement type feelings when not pregnant, read something about it being quite common for those who have had children before.
OWO - we're not going to be finding out the sex. I never have done, like it to be a surprise at the end.
rosietoes - with ds1 at 37wks I was only just starting to show, didn't actually want the pregnancy to end as that was the best I've ever felt! With ds2 I felt a lot heavier and fuller and by that time I was well and truly ready for him to get out! Everyone is different & every pregnacy is different, I think the only answer is to play it by ear. Sorry that's not any help really.
RWD - Yay for your good news.
Walkthedog - blimey, I'd hate that, being so far away from the hospital. I'm planning a home birth, but even if I do have to go in the hospital & MW unit are only 5mins away (in busy traffic).
Well ms has returned the last couple of days, but not as bad as before. Just doing a basic dinner. I find eating later is much better. I really struggle to eat at normal time.
I called mw again today, on your recommendation persickety, and actually got to speak to her rather than her voicemail. I have the other mw for my surgery coming tomorrow to do my booking in appt. Yay! Hopefully that means too that I'll get my scan before I go away. I was worried that I wouldn't get it 'til we got back as then it will be cutting it very fine for the nuchal timings.
I'm going to put another pic up on my profile. I'm well and truly in mat clothes, and can't quite believe I;m only 10wks tomorrow. I feel waaaay further along than that.
Anywya, best go and check on my dinner.
