    Hi all,

    can i just ask if many of you girls had alot of period like pains at around 18 - 19 weeks.
    I'm get lots of pain all day and night for the past week my mum is worried i could be going in to early labour but i personally think its ligament pain as this is my first.

    TIA

    Sorry Kavinam, I haven't had anything like that. I did have some ligament pain - at least that's what I though it was - but it was more sharp short lasting pain rather than period paid which I consider to be more achy.

    Just had my RLT, quite like it now and Noogle seems to like it too as she always moves around lots after I have drank it.

    I have one of these - they're not that uncommon. Mine is tilted backwards quite sharply, to the extent that when a medical student tried to do a smear on me, she couldn't find my cervix, and when I had my coil fitted it had to be under GA with a camera so they could see where it was going.

    It doesn't present any problems in pregnancy though, because, so I've been told and have 2 kids already which would tend to support this to be true, the weight of the growing baby plus extra gubbins in there, temporarily pulls your uterus down into the standard position. It will tilt back when the baby is born and it shrinks back to normal size, but from about half way through your pregnancy its the same as anyone elses!

    Cool thanks for that :) I probably should have asked her to elaborate lol

  • Evening guys.

    Been meaning to post for ages but nesting got in the way and then little Nathaniel David Basil came 10 days early!

    I have posted my story, meant to come on here earlier and say but ended up going to have Nathaniel checked out at the baby clinic rather than wait until Tuesday. MW should be coming tomorrow.

    He's been very good up until now but seems to be having a crying episode so I'd better go!

  • Boo have you started your raspberry leaf tea yet? I was going to give it a try from tomorrow, the box is looking at me accusingly in the cupboard as though to say 'I know you'll drink one cup then never come near me again!' Just wondered if you'd noticed more braxton hicks or movement after drinking it?

    Ha no I havent started mine yet either, mine keeps giving me looks too!! I think I was gonna wait until 34 weeks to start, so another week and a half to go. Spose I should try 1 cup though to see if I like it / can stomach it. Ooh if you do try it then can u let me know how u get on. Didnt someone suggest putting not too much water in so that you have less to drink? xx

  • Ok - I have now been officially insulted by my 4 year old. As I put her to bed tonight, she said 'Mummy, that top makes your tummy look really big, but it's not that huge really.' Kids - don't you just love 'em! I had just thought as I got home that perhaps it wasn't my most flattering top, but now I think it's going to the charity shop!
    ;) Working hard in the hopes of being 'lucky' ;)
  • Right I am going to bed, having a job to keep my eyes open!! Nite all, hope everyone sleeps well xx

  • Boo I'll let you know tomorrow! Someone suggested making it in a small cup and others have said add vimto too if you dont like the taste. Ive read up on a few sites now and opinions on when to start drinking it seem to differ so I was going to start with 1 a day for the next 3 weeks then go to 2 a day.

    Redstar - you have to love kids for speaking their mind! They seem to pick up on the things you've been worried about too!

  • Welcome kennyjosiah! Beenie will be glad as I think she thought she was losing the plot last night :rotfl:
