I stopped getting notifications again… so many posts in just a few days! Sorry if I miss anyones’ news…
@Littlegoth What an emotional week, I hope the consultant is happy with your wishes for a section. 10 weeks is so soon!
@avocuddles I realise you wrote about your family ages ago now, but just to say that I hope your mum can find a way to be supportive. I don’t see my parents that much but my son still adores them! He loves chatting to them on FaceTime, showing them all his toys. My mum even brings out a couple of dinosaurs and trains to play along and he loves it. She sends him little cards and he sits and looks through them talking about Nanny (he’s only 2.5)
@rachael321 Sorry to hear about you having gallstones, I really hope that they can be managed well and not affect your pregnancy too much. I don’t know anything about them but hope you’re getting lots of support.
@rachelrainbow Like a couple of others have said, I sadly haven’t found my anxiety to slow down at all! I’m now 26 weeks and seem to find things to be worried about. But I have found a way of living with it, so even if yours doesn’t abate, it doesn’t have to take over.
@knotemma @anxiouslady1 @mysterioussheep Congratulations on the scans, and beautiful photos. Hope the next scan clears up any questions Xx
@footprintsintheslow Gorgeous blanket. I knitted one for my son which ended up massive. I might try and make a smaller one for this one. I love the colours. I’m not a big fan of inspid colours for babies!!
@sunstruck, good news that everything is going well, there’s still quite a lot of time for baby to turn. I think someone else mentioned it, but the spinning babies website is really good for positions to get them to turn.
@tunnockstcake So sorry to hear about the redundancy. That is such rubbish timing. Definitely look into your rights as a pregnant person and make sure they don’t screw you over at all!! I hope you can still just enjoy your pregnancy and maternity leave before looking for something else (I realise it’s a big stress though. I’m freelance and all my work has dried up. I’ll be comparatively rich when my statutory maternity allowance kicks in!)
@shefliesonherownwings Really pleased you had a good chat about birth options and are getting what you want/need. Makes such a difference when you feel respected and listened to
@sammilou2312 Glad the testing is going ok. I had my GTT on Friday, but they only did the first part? Was pleased as meant I didn’t have to sit around for two hours. My last bloods took 6 weeks to get back to me, so not holding my breath unless something is badly wrong.
Enjoying all the shopping chat. I’ve got everything from my son, so bar a very small amount of new bits, we’re sorted I think. Just need to get it all out and organised. We don’t have a nursery set up. My son was in with us for over a year due to work on the house, so we won’t be in a rush this time either probably as it was quite nice. Then we’re going to put both kids in one room, so not much decorating probably.
