MSE Pregnancy Club IV

Triggles

We're not big drinkers either, and obviously I'm not at all due to pregnancy! But we'll pick up a few bottles of spirits, some lager, some John Smith (for FIL), and a few bottles red and white. Plus sodas and juice for those not drinking alcohol. But there's going to be 30-40 people coming over during the afternoon and evening, so we'll need plenty on hand. And then a few non-alcoholic beers for DH & I.

And of course the sausages wrapped in bacon - I loooooove those!

Feelie - I have got a physio appointment on 29 December for my SPD...which isn't so painful at the moment but the clicking is getting so bad that it is more like my pelvis is grinding together :eek:

The grinding is awful isn't it? Any movement I make at all, and I can feel it grinding at the front. That doesn't hurt particularly, but is makes me feel all funny - I don't like it at all!

One thing - after the physio, I've been wearing the band and doing the exercises, and its a lot better! I used to be unable to walk from about 7pm, but most days I can get to bed without having to use crutches! Got to watch sitting on the floor though, I spent an hour wrapping presents and couldn't walk the next day.

Oh, poor thing - SPD feels weird and painful too. I had it when pregnant with DS. I still have the back brace thing - so the minute I feel any popping, grinding, or pain I'm putting it back on.

I'm glad I've got an excuse not to drink this year. Every Christmas I get so much alcohol pushed my way from the In-Laws, they don't take no for an answer! Its not like me to be so resistant, but I have to say no. Hopefully they won't offer now I'm pregnant! They even encourage OH to drink when he is driving. Only one or two glasses, but still, I'm not really comfortable with that.

Rolling over is horrible, got to be really careful. The physio lady got up on the table and showed us how to roll over in bed, which helps. I've got one of those triangle cushion things, and thats good too. If I stay in any one position for too long, its really painful when I get up. The amount of times I've got out of bed and fallen down because my leg won't take the weight!

SB - the show was fab!! Stephen K Amos was hilarious - I shouted a funny heckle and he applauded me :T :T my heart was racing and I went really really hot but he repeated what I had said to the audience and they all applauded too Hubby says that bubba should be very proud of his funny mummy :T


Caz - the housework is constantly being blitzed by a crazed pregnant woman these days


Hubby has redeemed himself and booked us a hotel for Saturday night :rolleyes: he knows I can't be angry with him when he is being romantic

We're not having anyone over either this year... We're going to family (Haven't decided which ones yet lol) for boxing day but we're not particularly social... We go to church christmas morning then come home and have a quiet family day. I love it!

Anyone else use a laptop on their laps and worry about the effect on the baby? Or am I superparanoid? I sit with the laptop on my lap alot - but I have read one or two things that say it doesn't have any effect on the baby. Anyone read anything conflicting to that?
