I should get my MATB1 form then, right? (I'll be 23+5). It's the scan on Friday I'm REALLY looking forward to!

Aless, yes you should get your form then - although if your PCT is anything like mine, you'll need to ask for it.

And remember to ask for your HIP grant form at 25 weeks too - if you do, you'll be doing better than me!!!! I had 2 appointments last week and have three next week (gtt, bp consultant and growth scan) and none of them are with midwives so I forgot / am bound to forget then too! Does the money come through quite quickly does anyone know?

Off to catch up in a mo..just wanted to say I've got an official date for my last day at work :j!! I'm leaving 2 weeks tommorow..17th September..mine and hubbys 5th wedding anniversary :j:j Im so excited!! Double celebration! I will be 34 weeks. I wanted to keep going on untill 1st October but having had a really busy shift today,really full on, I am fooling myself if I think I can manage to continue that long as I found today really difficult. Even walking around I was limping around..it feels like my bodys not properly connected together?! Does anyone know what I mean?! If I stayed,for the sake of an extra 2 weeks,I think I would be so exhausted and unhappy=not good for baby. I'm going to see what holidays I have left,if any, that I can tag onto when I leave before my smp will start. Also it means I can be there for my friend more (the one who lost her husband a week or so ago) her youngest daughter starts full time school around then so she's gonna need her friends around her then I think. I'm having her girls round here tommorow to play with ds, then the funeral is on Friday.

Thanks Aless and Always, I think the crystal palace is the closest one to me, do you think you can wear a bikini? I don't have a swimming costume that fits!

I wore a tankini but people were in bikinis, tankinis and normal swimsuits.

i thinks its the getting jiggy the other 2 mornings that did it for me!!

Here's hoping that works as well

Just had a lovely lunch of jacket potato with beans and cheese!

Going into ASDA I met one of the ladies off the Parent Thread (fritha) who organised the sling meet - we had a lovely chat. And then leaving ASDA I met one of the girls from Parencraft with her pg friend so spent ages gabbing today! Oops, means less time doing the house! :rolleyes:

YAY for helen - you'll be counting down the days!!

XMAS - OMG this time next week I'll be sh1tting myself about what's going to happpen the next day!

Oh and pineapples are £1 in ASDA - I bought 2

Gosh Glam, is it really a week away? Noooo, yuo can't leave the thread! In fact, there's going to be a HUUUGE gap when all the September ladies depart!

Always - the Carshalton aquanatal is the one I plan on starting next week, so I guess I'll be seeing you there. Any tips you can give me, like should I bring a drink?

helen81_2

Yeah, 7 shifts left

32 weeks today :T Ive got my 1st cup of RLT cooling..I am ok to have just 1 cup of it a day now arn't I? I googled it and didn't find anything to say it was too early?! It's only 1 cup a day isn't it, I just want to start it into my daily routing now,so it becomes habit for me IYSWIM. I'll prob hate hate hate it anyway, can't stand normal tea, so they'll probs end up being shoved to back of cupboard.

Yippeeee for engaged heads!! Yeah, Xmas, it is thought as unusual to be engaged so early in a 2nd,3rd,4th ect..pregnancy!

Nice house EA, countdown to moving in begins!

Hello to the new members

BeenieCat

Does anyone else get a stitch feeling under their bump when walking?? I keep getting it but mainly when walking the dog, or should i say when the dog walks me :rolleyes: Also got an achey foof, as if i've pulled a muscle in that region!

Not sure if it's normal, especially at 25+4

aless02

Beenie, sometimes my bump feels really weighty & tight when I walk...like I need a pee even though I've just been! Think it's when I've been sitting down for a long time? This is probably what it feels like ALL the time you 3rd trim women, I just don't know it!

jillie1974

some days not every day. i think its when i do too much.
monday i walked about 5mins and was in agony.
