Sorry Mrs Buble not much advice as everybody seems to suffer in different ways and there fore different stuff works for them. I usually find a nice long hot shower makes me feel better tho.

They have asked for a full bladder, so I'm guessing they'll try the tummy first - don't fancy the alternative

Have a super full bladder! lol. What i did for this one was not go to the toilet for like 4 hours beforehand and had a small glass of water.
I find it easier to not empty my bladder rather than fill it :rotfl:

I had the 'dildo' scanner, they just put lube on and shove it up. Not very nice :rotfl:

Hello ladies..went to the dr today for the first time, not much happened other than she took my blood pressure, asked if I smoked and if I was taking folic acid.

She said I was nearly 5 weeks, and that I'd get a letter referring me to the hospital for my first check up at around week 11.

I asked if my age was a factor (I'm 36), but she said it's only women of 37 and over that they monitor more carefully..?? One of my friends was told it is over 35, so I guess it differs from dr to dr.

I'm due a follow up colposcopy in April following laser treatment for dodgy cells in my cervix earlier this year, but she said they may well postpone that now.

So guess there's not much more I can do for the forseeable future. Feeling very tired in the evenings and getting some crampy period type pains coming and going..quite snappy with OH too...he'd prob say whats new there then though!

...oh and my due date (all being well) is September 4th 2010!

i might try a hot bath, see if that helps....

The shower at the house we're in, is enclosed so theres not much air flow and i get short of breath and faint....

Also is it normal to feel your baby move, and then not for a long period of time?
Im pretty sure i was feling movements, usually when i was laying down in bed or bath, esp later at night but now it seems like nothing....

Is anything known to stir baby up a bit?

She just doesnt have a clue i swear to god!!!

She was running 45minutes late for a start and then proceeded to call me Kerry throughout the entire appointment

She still reckons that bump isnt engaged yet for weeks now i have felt like i am walking about with a watermelon between my legs :rolleyes:

She decided today that i needed more blood tests done Whats the point im due in 7 days time??? When i asked her what they were for she couldnt answer me :rolleyes:

I mentioned having a HB again to her and got told dont be silly its far to late now :mad:

I swear if this baby doesnt come out of me by next thursday when i have another appointment i will be cutting my belly open and taking him out myself :rotfl::rotfl:

ooh!!!! how exciting an ad went on freecycle this morning for 8 recycling bags full of baby clothes, bedding, blankets, and towels of boys and girls clothes aged 0-3 years!

I emailed them and asked for them and said that anything that i couldnt use i would either pass on to friends or put back on freecycle.

Didnt hear anything all day so thought i hadnt got them the lady has just emailed me back asking for my address saying she is going to deliver them in the next half an hour!! :j :j :j

Evansangel

Kerry? lol. Thats not even anything like your name!

I would of refused the blood tests unless she could tell me what they are for.

And also, have you thought about a sneaky home birth, ie: Just dont go into hospital and call at the last minute?

Im sure they cant refuse you one though

And woohoo for the freecycle stuff!!! I have to stick our old dyson on there, its broke but im sure it could be used for parts. I just cant be bothered yet

Currently using my new steamer to steam some vegetables for me
Im well excited lol

I know!!! Thats what i thought :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I did refuse the blood tests im fed up of being used as a pin cushion and i really dont see the point when chances are im going to have had him before they even get the results back! :rolleyes:

Have thought about the sneaky home birth not sure i could do it without the gas and air though but will see how i go :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I love my steamer i only ever seem to use it at xmas though Probably coz its a massive 3 tier one its easier just to steam a few veg for me n the girls in the microwave :rotfl::rotfl:
