Glam, this is my second and i'm told you feel things earlier with the more you have. Have no recollection of the last one, as it was over 5 years ago. Baby moves quite a lot, doesn't like to be squished when i lean forward at my desk, seems to be squirming to tell me to behave.

As we are roughly the same, do you ache, i seem to cease up at night and when i get out of bed in the morning and my legs have been terribley achey for a few days. I feel like an old woman. But i suppose at 35 i am considered old in pregnancy terms aren't I?

I'm almost 26 and I have the most horrendous pain in my left hip - right at the tip of the hip bone! Worse when I lie on my left hand side at night. Last night it was dead hot and OH was a bit worried about the heat coming off me! I also get really stiff if I sit or lie in the same position for too long - OH moans that I'm constantly shifting around trying to get comfy. If I sit at my desk for too long then when I get up I walk like an 80 year old!!

Feelie - nice to see you on here still How's Toby doing?

He is doing well. He has gained back half the weight he lost, and is devouring expressed breast milk like anything. Midwife is happy with him, he is out of the woods.

I'm not being discharged yet, usually they stop calling at Day Nine. I'm being seen till at least Day 13. Had daily visits and sometimes twice daily visits up till now, but none tomorrow. Pyschiatrist appointment on Monday.

I can't tear myself away from you guys

Oh, I weighed last night, I'm only 6lb heavier than when I got pregnant!

I think since getting out of the 12 weeks myself I've been very cautious about how jubilant I get for newbies on here who are less than 12 weeks pregnant because I feel like I am getting them too excited and the longer I spend on here the more lost babies I see and the more aware I am that it's a real possibility.
I hate being a killjoy but on the other hand I feel bad if I don't make them aware that this is a real possibility Then again I hate being told I'm being too negative... *sigh* catch 22...

MSD - hugs to you too

Thanks, Thought it was just me turning into a hypercondriact (SP?). Am thinking of investing in a body pillow, see if it helps. Only thing i remember from the last pregnancey was having to sleep on an air matress on the floor for the last 10 weeks or so to relieve the pressure from my pelvis and legs.

I don't think I've been comfortable sitting/lying/walking since about 15/16 weeks... Some days are better than others... But I find if I sit on a hard chair for any length of time, I can barely walk for hours afterwards...

Tine, all that drama yesterday... And you said I was getting all the special treatment

Just had my very nutritional lunch... Of a crisp butty... and a bag of crisps... Off to hunt the mini daimes that are hidden down the side of the bed...

Glam it sounds a bit like what I've had since about 20ish weeks... lower back and hip joints. I have to shift regularly in bed and sitting at desks is agony - especially after sitting for a while and then getting up. Oddly I can sit on the sofa for hours and feel fine when I get up
Getting work to change my chair did help a bit but didn't solve it - driving long (30mins +) trips was agonising too...
I'm seriously thinking of sleeping in the other bedroom to let DH get some sleep during the week - the poor thing has to drive to work after all - I don't.

Aw, Well done Toby :T it's great to hear he's doing well! and well done you only 6lb is fab :j

MrsTine, I generally feel the same. I find it hard to see people getting so excited and sometime I just want to say calm down - but I do refrain from raining on peoples parades IYSWIM, I know how easy it is to get carried away We do seem to have a run of bad luck

I joined at about 6 weeks and at the time the thought of losing the baby hadn't even entered my head. After seeing so many people on here (esp. EA who was a regular already and was looking at buying things) come on so early and then leave again so soon - I think in future I will def be waiting til the 12 week mark before joining this thread again (yes, I'll be back!!).

Now though after seeing it I also don't want to be the one to say 'Hey don't get too excited, get your first scan out the way first!'

Tine - I have opted to sleep on our sofabed downstairs at the moment as OH is still working and I keep him awake with my snoring and talking in my sleep. Tried it monday and he slept like a baby, last night he said he wanted me back as he didnt like me sleeping downstairs but he barely slept, so have made the decision that I am sleeping downstairs during the week until baby is born. :rolleyes:
