Hey all

@Curlymam88 I'm going to have a look into that oil. I think constipation is probs due to iron tablets and the other part coz I'm under the weather. I'll keep and eye on it lol. Thanks hun x

@JW2021 yes I think so lol. Is this your first baby?

Yea the iron tablets do make you constipated thats why they gave me liquid iron instead. Lobely looking bumps 😊 ill be 33 weeks Wednesday. Cant believe how fast time is going. Theull soon be here 💜💙 but I still don't have a name for her lol

Thank you! Excited to see the little wriggler again it’s been a while since 12 weeks ago!

Oh sorry Jade yes my first!

@Curlymam88 aww bless you I'm sure you will find the perfect name for her. I've liked the name Callie-rose for a girl.

@JW2021 aww bless so you must be super excited. This is the 5 pregnancy but 3 baby as I lost 2 babies.

Happy Halloween from me and my bumpkin 🎃 😄 32+4 my daughter spent ages trying to do this today 😊

@Curlymam88 happy Halloween hun. Also from my bump and kids to you and family.
Aww isn't she lovely. That is so cute. Well done sweetie. X

@jadey1991 thank you she took so long doing it but she's enjoyed herself. Weve never really done Halloween in other years but we've even been trick o treating tonight.

@Curlymam88 aww bless her.. sounds like she enjoyed herself. I don't do Halloween myself but since lock down I thought I'll do something this time round lol.
We didn't do trick or treating but had a little Halloween party

Hi all happy halloween 🎃 We went pumpkin picking last week and kids chose a tiny one (for baby bump) and I chose a long one so mummy and bump pumpkin! we stayed in and had a little family party with costumes,disco lights,balloons etc just the 6 of us but had lots of trick o treaters was great! We've had a busy weekend as celebrated our daughters 10th birthday so spent most of day out at harry potter warner bros tour wich was amazing and then girls shopping day yesterday another 4hrs walking around and then carving pumpkins,party today but got my 1st round of braxton hicks tonight....every 10mins... and just makes me realise how close the real thing is now! Slowing it down after this weekend! Hope everyone's doing well....your bumps are looking great and hope you've all had a great half term 😊

@jadey1991 sounds like a nice Halloween. Im thinking once Halloween is over with its downhill to Xmas now 😬
@lovebeingmum9 wow sounds like you've had a busy week, we were only out for an hour earlier and that was enough for me!
Hope your daughter had a fab birthday, the pumpkin looks good 👍 😊🎃

Yep same here in the USA Halloween is really big. Went to a huge festival on Friday nite with my little bump’s cousins - then trick n treating in the neighbor hood tonite - good thing I passed my glucose test a few weeks back! Enjoy everyone! 🎃

@lovebeingmum9 aww you had a busy weekend hun. All sounds fun. That pic u attached looks so adorable.. hope your daughter has a lovely time. Braxton hicks has defo started for me too.
I feel so big now.

Hello ladies! My phone broke at the beginning of the week so I haven't been following any chat but am back up and running now! Good to hear how you're all doing, I went to the hospital yesterday for reduced movements but thankfully everything was fine and he's been back on top form treating me like a punching bag today 😂 thinking he was probably having a quiet day, or had moved position since I was getting a lot of back pain yesterday, but nothing before or since...
Took the dog for a long walk today followed by trick or treating round the village tonight and now I'm really struggling to walk! Feel like maybe I've overdone it and should try and rest tomorrow but no chance with school run starting back up and the dog needing walking again 😩 33 weeks and definitely feeling like I'm struggling with the weight of him, growth scan next Monday so will be interesting to see how big he's got since he was already just under 5lbs at 32 weeks!!

@burtle4 oh no hun, I'm glad all is well with u and baby now. So scary isn't it. Bless you. Glad you had a good time today.
Alder I have a relaxing day at some point. I have a growth scan on Tuesday. Let us know how u get on x

@Curlymam88 @jadey1991 aw yes she had a great birthday thankyou! Was meant to be a 4hr car journey there and back but ended up being nearer to 7.....my poor back,hubby driving and 4 kids in the car lol 😆 + the 3 and half hours walking inbetween....was way too much for me the adrenaline and excitement kicked in but God I felt it next day.....an hour waddling is enough for anyone lol
@JW2021 sounds great hope you all had fun! 🎃🍫
@burtle4 hiya glad all is good with baby despite the scare its def worth getting checked! I'm 33wks and also feeling very heavy and bumps looking a bit lower.....can't believe its 1st November and our babies will be here next month! I'm def going to pack my hospital bag and get fully prepared over the next week! 😊

When you just said our babies will be here next month 😁😁 thats not long at all is it. So close now.

@Curlymam88 I know its crazy isn't it! 🤯

Hi everyone. I am due on Xmas Day too! So 32+2 today. Baby is measuring on 90th centile at the min with an estimated weight of about 4lbs after a scan I had last week.
They have said I don’t need to go for any further growth scans unless any concerns.

@jadey1991i have my midwife appointment on the 12th too. Hoping I can go through some kind of birth plan with her but really I just wish I could know if he will arrive before or after Xmas. It’s a difficult time to plan for.

Hello DecadeBCU
Wow! 90th percentile it’s gonna be a whopper how wonderful! At my 20 week scan baby was in the 62nd percentile ? I really have no clue what any of it means really - as much as baby is wiggling inside everyday, I still can’t see a foot or an elbow pop out on top of my skin yet. But at 90th P I’d say you must be seeing so much activity to share with your hubby/partner aren’t you? I try to take videos but still too early I think.

@DecadeBCU hello welcome to the thread and congratulations.
Yes I have a growth scan tomorrow to see how baby is doing. My first time having growth scans as my other 2 children I didn't have them. Only reason I'm having the growth scans is because they said my eldest daughter was small. At my last growth scan (28w+4) baby was weighing 2lb11oz so tomorrow will be the day I find out what he is weighing.
My baby is also Due on Xmas day but I am speaking with my midwife about being induced if worse comes to worse as my anxiety levels have gone so high. Planning what to do with my other 2 children has been hard because you just never know when baby will decide to come.
To be fair me and my partner are thinking baby will be coming end of November because I haven't been feeling great the last week or so.
We just have this gut feeling that's when he will come.

@JW2021 to be honest I haven't seen an elbow or anything yet. I've just seen baby doing summersaults and constantly moving.

I haven’t seen a limb as such but I can feel her foot near my ribs sometimes.
I have a liver ultrasound this week and I’ll meet with a consultant a week today to talk induction. I’m quite a stressed by it and the thought makes me feel abit sick - I know a few of you are keen for induction because of the control.
I’ve had a few sleepless nights worrying about her movements as I’ve been told to be hyper aware because of the slight elevated risk of stillbirth.

The only plus is we went to mamas and papas and got lots of things like a baby bath, swish changing mat and some sleeping bags for when she’s bigger which makes it feel real, and I washed our car seat cover which looks brand new!

@tuxedocat aww hun I'm sure you will be fine. What are you worried about hun? X
