    Fidget and Jha- what does your stomach feel like? I ask because I have a feeling that I have a back to back baby too. When I feel my stomach it feels hard right under my boobs down to my belly button and sometimes I have like 'handles' at both sides which maybe are legs? Does it sound familiar? Oh and Jha, which prep H do you use..a gel,cream or suppository? I am really sore!!!
    love my little man he is amazing :j

    For my back to back baby, the bump feels really hard and quite achey all the time and he is all limbs out the front of my belly, sometimes all 4 sticking out at the same time. I haven't had much back pain but apparently that is also a sign. It did take the midwife to diagnose this though (wish she had done it sooner as then I could have maybe exersized my way out of it)....
    Hope that is of some help.

    Hello :D

    I'm back with news! It's a BOY, I knew I it!

    All looks healthy, he gave us a yawn, and a tongue sticking out moment, and was mega active rolling and kicking around everywhere! OH had tears in his eyes when baby appeared on screen, both absolutely over the moon that he's ok in there :D

    Still feeling rubbish so gonna get back into bed and quietly catch up, just wanted to let you all know :)

    xxx

    Yey! Glad everything is ok and congrats on Team Blue! I kinda wish I knew now! Well, half of me does anyway. I think it's mainly cos I've told everyone I think it's a boy and although I would love a girl I think if it is it might just take some getting used to!!

    Thanks about the site! Going to get it finished tonight hopefully and have already changed my advertising over so I'll see if this name does as well as the previous one!

    just found a good deal if anyone still looking for cot bed

    here at toysrus cot bed reduced from £239 to £99

    I really like that! I was in there at the weekend looking at the dark wood I Love My Bear cotbed they have in, but then we went into Mama's and Papas and saw the little nursery all kitted out in the Zeddy & Parsnip range that we've already bought quite a bit of, and they had a white cot in there and it looked really nice so thinking I might switch and get this one now! MIL is paying so will save her some ££ too (that maybe she might get us something else with ;))

    Nanc sorry you are bored already!! I wish I was enthusiastic liek that about my job, it's a hardship for me to check my work emails while I'm at wotk let alone when I'm off!! Big labour vibes coming your way and then when baby comes I'm sure you'll never be bored again lol!!

    Fidget really sorry you were down the other night. Sending hugs and labour vibes and a virtual cupcake :bdaycake: (They don't have a cupcake smiley so this will have to do!!)

    Gemma - glad you are feeling better and that things have got better at work. You are lucky to have a supportive boss!

    LCK and Fidget - baby turning vibes!

    Beenie good effort on all the decorating! Hope you are taking plenty of rest breaks though. One glittery wall sounds good to me!

    Hugs MERFE, sorry you are feeling down and about the bleed. Have you called your MW about it? Lots of sticky bean vibes for you.

    Hi Jha and Aless :hello:

    Fishcake nice to see you back after your little break!!

    Hello to everyone else too :wave:

    I'm sat here making icing flip flops!! Ha ha! Got the bases for 17 pairs done so I'm not getting anywhere quick! Oh well, I have all night.

    Helen, my bubs is also back to back and my bump is very hard right under my bust, which I presume is a bum! I must admit that my backache has really eased in the last few days so I'm hoping baby might have turned, but who knows?!:confused:

    Sorry helen - i didnt realise there was more than one type. I use this one http://www.boots.com/en/Preparation-H-Ointment-25g_983945/ - i just put it on with a bit of tissue - no suppositry (sp) frequently to start with and then a couple of times a day - it is a bit whiffy but well worth it coz the bleeding was horrible.

    Midwife said i was wrong about baby it is not horizontal but head down "locked and loaded" on the right side of my bump back to back with limbs to the left like a backwards c shape iyswim. The right side of my bump is hard but this might not be of use as i am only 28 weeks.

    Jolene, check out my post here http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.html?p=23058603&postcount=3183 which is my baby list. It's not just essentials- there are quite a few nice to haves on there too but it should give you some ideas.

    I bought a hotmilk maternity bra online on sun and it arrived today, seriously comfortable!!! I love it and I'm going to buy another one. I wish I had just bought these the first time round!

    First time round I had hideous mothercare twin pack, uncomfortable, cheap maternity/ nursing bra's that didn't fit me at all, due to an awful fitting assistant, that basically said how ugly they were and turned her nose up at breastfeeding. She couldn't read her tape measure and told me I would be a 44G, when my normal brasize is a 34G, she made me put the 44 on and it was ridiculous, I could have fitted another person in there with me :D So she then just made me try on every other size down to ohhhhh a 34!! Then when it fitted, she told me to go up a size as I would get bigger when breastfeeding,(thats cup size surely??) so made me buy the 36G. They never fitted me, and looking back I do not know how I persevered with them so long or why I took her word for it! :D

    Anyway long story ha ha, but I love my hotmilk bra! It's stopped my achey boobs for now, and is pretty too! <3<3
