Ladies we are now on thread 3😱😱

@lovebeingmum9 I've never experienced this before so it's all new to me. Usually I'm a good sleeper but I suppose things change. For the last 2 days I've just been so shattered and can't do anything. All I've been doing is laying in bed

@lovebeingmum9 thank you 😊 and @jadey1991 im exactly the same as you, struggle to get to sleep, up all hours, and shattered in the days.
Not long left now, we are all almost there 💙💜

@Curlymam88 yes exactly not long left now. Just can't wait to meet baby.

Hey ladies,
How are you all doing. I'm feeling ok today. Been having back pain and slight cramps. A lot of pressure in my pelvis now. Defo think baby is end of month beginning of dec.
hope you are doing well

@jadey1991 glad you're feeling better today. My back has been hurting alot, I get cramps at night, and where I was slightly constipated before im not any more 🙈 sorry if tmi.
So excited for everyone, and to read the first post of someone saying their waters have gone 😬

@Curlymam88 thanks hun, yeah I was struggling with constipation too. But I'm ok now. Im starting to go pee pee a lot more now. Yes I'm like you I'm excited to hear when someone's waters have broke. I'm sure there was someone in here who lost some of there mucus plug? Wonder how she is getting on.
I'm 35 weeks tomorrow and so excited as I know I'm almost there x

Same, baby moves on my bladder and I need to clench to stop myself from peeing lol. Oh yes, I dont remember who it was now either. Not long to go, these last few weeks are going to be the longest I think though 🤣

@Curlymam88 to be honest I think mine is soon. I feel like baby head is engaged. I have this feeling in my pelvis and it hurts a little

I had my midwife appointment yesterday. Baby is 1/5th engaged. I expected it to be more as the pressure in my pelvis has been immense! Im only 34+2 but I'm absolutely knackered 😂.
I don't sleep past 3am ish nowadays and haven't for months. I don't understand these people that thrive in pregnancy!

@Theawkwardblonde aww so your getting there. I need to find out ' mine. Do they put it in your maternity notes?
The way I'm feeling in last few hours isn't nice. The feeling I'm getting is un describable. I can walk properly coz of the pressure🤦🏽‍♀️

@jadey1991 yeah it's in my notes, they also told me at my appointment it had started engaging.
I do feel a tad odd when walking. Also my hips are aching more now when I walk too.

@Theawkwardblonde oh ok, I don't have a MW appointment till 26/11. What did your MW say for you to do now that baby is engaged?

@jadey1991 she didn't say anything really. Just that it will get further down into my pelvis as the pregnancy goes on. Said I'll likely need to pee more. I did suspect baby had started engaging as the extra pressure on my bladder has been very noticeable!

@Theawkwardblonde oh ok then. I'm feeling that too. Literally every half hour to an hour I'm passing urine. Especially during the night. I'll just have to see what happens. Have you lost tour mucus plug yet?

How's everyone feeling today x

@jadey1991 im not too bad today thank you. Ive been out and about today, We finally went to pick the pram and car seat up today even though we ordered it back in August some how only now its in stock.
How are you feeling?

@Curlymam88 aww that's good glad your feeling good today.. that's nice. Isit exactly what you ordered? I'm not to bad thanks. Been having a lot of cramping since yesterday. I have defo dropped a lot and baby is more at the front

This is me today at 35 weeks

Hello! 36 weeks today, can't believe there's only 4 left and probably less as will be induced at some point! Feeling good but been on my feet a lot today and seem to have developed swollen ankles for the first time. Also sat here watching tele, trying to rest them and now the toes on my left foot have just gone into spasm, really weird feeling where they are pulling in different directions! Bizarre end of pregnancy issues 😂 hope everyone else is doing ok x

@burtle4 glad to hear you are well hun. Yes I have swollen legs, feet and hand too. Midwife said it's normal. Like I've said before I've been experiencing cramping for the past 2 days. I have a lot of pressure down below so I think baby could possibly be engaged or partly engaged. I have midwife appointment next week Friday. X

I've been getting loads of braxton hicks which make me need to wee every time and are so uncomfortable, but not crampy thankfully. My baby seems to have been constantly low since the start but I've actually been feeling less pelvic pain recently so I'm wondering if he's moved up a bit, which is wrong timing 😂 got scan and midwife on Monday so will find out then x

@burtle4 aww let us know how you get on.. I have my last growth scan on 30th November. I reckon my baby will come early.

@jadey1991 yea it was the one we wanted. They said January it be back in stock at first, I said baby will probably be here in 2 weeks time, January is no good!! Wow, look at your bump now, I've been feeling big today. This was mine from this morning. So heavy now.
I've been lucky with swelling like you ladies, I do have restless legs again which is a nightmare trying to get to sleep with. I use that magnesium sleep spray which does help a bit.
Just keep thinking not long left 😬

@jadey1991 my obstetrician appointment is 30th November too where I should be booked in for my c section date I think the following week. I hope anyway.

@Curlymam88 aww look at your bump, doesn't look like you dropped a lot now. You still look really round. Mine has dropped sooooo much.. I still need to try that magnesium spray you told me about. Glad you have the buggy you wanted. Restless legs I have been suffering really bad with. Haha they made it come faster lol.
