    OH is making me ask you all this lol. Because apparently i dont ask things incase i look stupid :p

    When baby moves does it hurt any of you? Cause everytime she moves it hurts me :( but i dont want to call MW incase she says its normal, and i prob will feel stupid hehe

    He does hurt me sometimes, he hurt me more when he was breech, but yes sometimes he does hurt, but if she is really hurting you chick I would check with MW, its probs that she is running out of room but you never know xxx

    No twinkles I thin they should have told you they werent coming

    Beany is so active today which I am pleased with

  • Hi everyone, hope you are all ok.
    I haven't had much to say (for once!), so I'm just lurking for the time being.
    However, I did receive my HIPG money yesterday.... wahoo!

    Choccy - nice bump :D

    hassle - sorry no advice on cat nets, they all look the same to me!

    Nikkit - will ask about Floradix on Friday, are they expensive? Tho the lactulose is doing its thing now hehe. Oh and MCs vests and body suits are stupid prices, I dont buy them eithe and have staff discount, even in the sale there still too pricey IMO.

    yorkgal - Im usually a 16 and bought all my mat trousers in that size, and they were fine until about 6 weeks ago when they started getting uncomfy. So I bought some 18s from my catalogue and there huge! even now at 35+5 stll way too big, so it really depends on where you buy from.

    Kindof - yeay for getting the Asda CC :D Oh and how big are your bags? think my baby one may be too small and mine a lil too large! Good news on your BP too x Eeek for your Bro wanting be there and wait.

    fernlie - fab bargains tho dont have one anywhere close by that I know of!

    CAFC - oh you poor thing I hate toothaches the only thing that gets rid of mine is alcohol, but thats a nono while pg!

    SJ - glad your appointment went well and baby is engaging more, hope there arent many other HBs when you go! Missed my delivery for collage today too, will hopefully be able to pick them up tomorrow.

    Twinkles - thats so rude of your MW never showing, am pleased Ive had all my visits with MW at doc.

    EA - please you got the cover sorted :D Am jelous of your discount baby shop! Oh and I got offered the T-shirt too, for OH am gutted but hopefully will get something else in the not too distant future. Hope next item is for bubs x The dog I have is an Airdale, there like huge yorkies lol and also great for peeps with allergies :D

    Agutka - no yoga required, but they are so comfy I have two pairs now and live in them :D

    babygirl - am like that all the time, not knowing what to do with myself!

    xmas - yeay for having a better day :D

    red - woohoo for getting your Hipg :D

    On the talk of bubs hurting you, I wouldnt say its painful but is damn uncomfy, like she's stretching certain bits beyond there limits!

    Right all done at work! Was quite odd finnishing cos I expected it to feel odd and it didnt, I dont think its sunk in yet! Got another hand knitted cardigan from one of the girls and another got me a real cute romper and hat set, with matching socks :D Manager addimited she made a mistake as they thought I was leaving sat and so had planned on giving me something then but as its all mixed up could I pop back in some time lol. Honestly hadnt expected anything right away anyhoo as I know the past norm has been to do it after the person has left just cos its easier to organise with 50 odd staff!

    BF workshop was fab :D learnt lots and got to practice holding a weighted dummy baby in different feeding positions, was pleased cos MW commented that I got it right first time, it felt natural and comfy too which I was a tad worried about :D got a DVD and some leaflets to take away plus lots of contact and help info for after.

    Came home to find OH had cooked too, so all in all a good day :D

    I feel so lucky as in both pregnancies the placenta is high up, so babies had no chance at getting at my ribs :T phew. I don't feel pain, just discomfort, especially if the movement is always in the same spot.
    A friend of mine got bruised by her son - it was visible on the outside and her doc said it wouldn't get better till she gave birth two months later :eek:

    evening all..

    Pleased to say i managed to do some work, and then I fell asleep for about 3 hours, and ive just lounged all evening.
    cant face anything to eat though, might have to make do with a cup a soup just for something to have eaten, not even hungry (thats when I know im rough!)...
    Going to see if exemption turns up in post tomorrow and if not do a ring round then.ive got my booking notes if they need something to proove it, as well as bump, who bless him has been awake with me all day today :)

    am holding out to take some more paracetamol when im thinking of going to bed so I can get at least a few hours kip. It seems to only work for about 3 hours though and then its right back to killing me.
    Sis reckons I might have an absyss, as we've now ruled out wisdom teeth, have had bonjela on my gums, both top and bottom but i hate the taste, and not sure if its even working really.....

    Have to leave the house tomorrow to go to library so might have to invest in some clove oil if no better. thanks for all your words of comfort though ladies xx

  • Hello ladies :)
    Hope you're all ok and sorry I haven't posted,been very busy and tired recently x
    Well I had my midwife appointment today and everything is going along fine...23wks+2days :D Got some physio coming my way soon as my back and hips have been playing up. Next app. when I'm 25wks for hip form,then 28weeks for bloods,etc :) Feel better for seeing the midwife as I haven't in ages!
    Went to Swindon Sunday and have chosen to get the Silver cross 3D pram+you get the care seat free with it at the mo in toysrus,noticed on the website :)
    Got a few maternity bras in m&s,wish they held me up tho,lol!Also bought some well comfy maternity jeans from peacocks. None of my normal trousers fit anymore so its 'bye bye old gear and hello maternity wear till may time'!
    Went to my sons parents evening the other night and he's getting on great,so proud of him! Me and the OH got him a couple of guinea pigs today as a gift for doing so well...he was soooo happy! We didn't have any pets beforehand so he's well chuffed now :D Two males...ones called 'pepsi' and the other 'max' (pepsi max,lol) :)
    Got to help out at the nursery again 2moz so I'm gonna get some sleep now but will have a natter soon! Take care xxx

    Hi all
    I now have only 8 working days left until maternity leave starts but I have SO much to do before I leave work that it's unbelieveable!:o
    Midwife is not happy with me as I am still working. I think she was miffed because all the times she wanted to see me this week I actually had things planned at work and it's not the type of job where I can just leave as and when. I said to her that unless she could tell me that I had high blood pressure, there was protein in my urine or something was wrong with the baby then I would continue work until my leave starts. I feel fine, although tired; etc. but doesn't everyone feel tired and worn out?! :mad:Anyway, after I spoke to the midwife I phoned my Mum for support and she bl**dy agreed with the midwife about giving up work! Then I phoned my husband for support and he agreed with the midwife AND my mother! Now THAT'S a first!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    :love:Baby Bump born 4th March 2010! :kisses:

    Som - OH has chosen his shirt now, there were some very funny ones on there. But he chose the one with Jesus on the front saying 'BRB' lol.

    I made OH's bday cake finally this evening. And whilst im ok at actually baking the cake, decorating it is a different matter. I must of made the icing a bit to runny as the words have all blended into one word lol.

    Argh, i burnt my wrist on the oven shelf earlier! It split the skin and it still hurts! :( I stole some of baby's sudocrem though to put on it :D

    Dinner was very filling, we had pasta bake with mince in. Im still stuffed now :(

    Unfortunately it is the certificate that gets you the freebies, not the pregnancy, so if they want to they can refuse to treat you free. Fortunately, they also know that you have a certificate on it's way, so they can ask for you to bring it later for their records.
    I do hope you get it treated soon, horrid pain - though at least the birth will now be a doddle :D. Good luck!
