@kaylsd that's exactly what I think? She didn't want to do it so gave a half hearted effort! Oh I've had 3/4 different midwives throughout my care an all of them have passed comment on where I want to give birth because it isn't the centre they work at! It's very annoying! I can't believe I'm next on the list!! But for some reason I have a feeling you or @Juno231 will be before me! Food dates before the nesting stage sound perfect!!
@paintfairy enjoy your newborn bubble! Just rest and cuddle, you don't need to worry about anything else!!
@Minster2012 yep! Literally just before and after she'd done it she was saying she doesn't understand why they offer them before 40 weeks and she's been doing this job a long time and it's a new thing but she doesn't understand it etc, I thought well to be honest I don't care about your opinion just do it🤣
@larrythelizard I keep clinging onto "baby will come when baby is ready" and I'm not even over due yet but I'm fed up!!! I hope you get your ELCS date soon, I'd have thought they'd want you to have it and be prepared by now!!
@DKDK123 oh I really hope so! I did feel so disappointed but feel okay about it now, it's just one of those things isn't it!!
@bez91 well to be honest it didn't feel uncomfortable in the slightest I wanted to tell her to keep trying😂 my next midwife app is next Wednesday when I'll be 40+2!
@BellatrixK he's been a saint honestly! I'm glad yours is stepping up too and being proactive, I definitely feel like having a good house sort through is part and parcel of pregnancy😂 I really really hope so🤞🏼 glad you had a lovely time in Cumbria!! Wooo to the milestone 24 weeks🥳
@becarefuloutthere im going to ring up to try and get one tomorrow then my next app is Wednesday so will ask for one then as well if it doesn't work tomorrow!!
@Soph0105 hmm maybe you're right, I just want to feel like I'm doing something because I'm so fed up now!! Ohh bless him, hopefully the calpol will help!!
@Juno231 yep she wasn't helpful at all!! I really hope my baby comes any day but I think he/she is going to make us wait a while!
I hope your cramps mean something, I've had them on and off for about a week now and every time I thought it meant something but no🥴 a tenner??? Unreal!!
@InkyPaper 27 weeks! How exciting!! Very annoying your boss isn't clued up on your mat leave though!!
@Minster2012 that guy seems odd, comparing really isn't what he should be doing🥴 I'd have lost my shit with the Tesco helper!!!
Well woke up feeling slightly better with my cold and with a list of do's and dont's from OH, he then came home and made me 4 smoothies for over the weekend packed full of goodness bless him, but now I'm starting to feel shitty again and fed up!! I'm ringing the birth centre in the morning to try and get another sweep tomorrow! Also dropped my group b strep swab off on Monday and they said if I don't hear within 1-2 days then take it it's negative, hadn't heard anything so was happy, got a phone call earlier to say it was positive😫 they have said I can still have a water birth though I'll just need to come out every 4 hours to have the antibiotics but after reading up on it they haven't really told me much, says as soon as I think I'm in labour I should go into hospital so I can have the antibiotics straight away and shouldn't labour at home, also there's some scary stuff on the internet about it too, but from what I can gather it can only be passed to baby on delivery and not throughout pregnancy?? Or can someone else confirm this for me please?? I know it's so common especially in pregnancy but it's made me feel really shit, think I'm just getting those end of pregnancy lows and with a bad back, a bad cold and 39+4 with no signs of baby arriving I'm getting fed up!!
