Due January 2024 - Part 8

[PartRadish]

Couldn't see a new one yet :)

@Mummyme87 brilliant thank you 😊

Anybody else suddenly got cravings? I just drunk half a big bottle of banna milkshake on the way home from sainsburys 🙈

The snuzpod is on offer at Boots again (25% off) and the tutti bambini is on offer at Very. I still can't decide between them though 🙈

@Luhou just like with my DD I could eat my body weight in fruit daily. Just bought a bag of satsumas from sainsburys on my lunch break.

Any recommendations for raspberry leaf tea? I didn't drink it with my DD but after a long labour I'm willing to try anything to have a better go second time round.

@buckingmad at least that's healthy!

Haven't seen you post for a few days @Kalodin (although totally possible I've missed an update 🙈) Just wanted to check in and say hope all is okay x

My boss has had interviews with both the mat cover candidates I had shortlisted and liked them both - I'm so relieved! 2 good candidates so there's a good chance one will work out well.

Has anyone got a breast pump recommendations? Ideally hands free but any pointers would be great.

Thank you @PartRadish and others. Been a mad few days in labour, ended up in a emergency c-section. Trying to wrap my head round everything.

I had the medela swing (not hands free) and liked it but would like hands free. I'm holding off getting one until breastfeeding is established.

Seen the momcozy a lot on tiktok and it's a lot cheaper than the Elvie which tbf have heard nothing but good things about but boy oh boy it's pricy!

@Kalodin omg are you ok?? Gosh I can’t believe it. Sending love

we’ve gone for the Tutti Bambino this time had a Chicco next 2me last time

Im still struggling with eating, some things I fancy but mostly struggling to want anything and acid reflux is worse with so much now I just think I need to stop eating on a night 😩

@Kalodin somehow missed your update. Hope you are OK.

Hope you're ok @Kalodin xx

Oh @Kalodin are you OK? Truly hope it wasn't too traumatic for you and baby is well xx

@Kalodin thinking of you, I hope all as well as can be with you and baby xx

Oh blimey @Kalodin I didn't expect that, gosh you must be reeling!

Well first things first, congratulations on your new arrival 🤍

I will have absolutely everything crossed for an uncomplicated c-section recovery for you, and as smooth and peaceful a nicu stay as possible for baby. Sending you lots of love. I'll be thinking of you x

Congratulations @Kalodin I hope you're all doing OK.

I had just popped in to see if anyone else is still having quiet days for baby movement. I'm almost 28 weeks and feel like there are very active days and the very quiet days when I hardly feel him.

@Kalodin congratulations! Our first baby! ❤️ I hope all is ok and you're both recovering, what a whirlwind

@Dannic2018 eugh with the heartburn right? I honestly don't want to eat after 3pm at the mo! I'm not even hungry in the evenings even now and yeah no idea what I want during the day either...

@TunnocksTCake sounds good about mat cover, I just was informed yesterday that we're on a recruitment freeze and my
Mat cover is no longer a thing so they're splitting my job and 'making do' so god knows what it'll be like when I go back after 10 months 😩

@Kalodin I hope everything is okay with little one and that you're recovering! Sending lots of love ❤️

@Kalodin wow congratulations. Thinking of you, must of been a shock!

Wishing you and little one all the best xx

@Kalodin congratulations to you ❤️ hope you and baby are okay and continue to recover really well. Can’t believe our first baby has arrived!! X

I definitely was at 28 weeks, now at 31 weeks it seems to be more of a daily dance party and I'm hoping it stays that way.

Genuinely scared to read on here whoever said if the babies are slightly early we might have them next month!!!!

@Kalodin hope all is well with you both

@Kalodin congratulations. Can't believe we have our first baby. Eeeekkk xx

@Kalodin Wow our first baby! Congratulations! I hope everything is going ok for you both ❤️

Omg @Kalodin what a surprise! Congratulations! Hope you and little one are ok and have a speedy recovery xx
