Hi everyone, hope you and your bumps are all doing well.
I've taken a few hours off work this afternoon. I have to see the MW at 4pm for the bloods that were meant to be taken last Tuesday.
Feeling fairly down at the moment, so I'm spending the afternoon feeling sorry for myself. After a fairly bad day yesterday, I managed to top it off by being involved in a collision on the way home. Another car ran into the side of me while I was pulling out of a junction :eek: Fortunately no one was hurt, but it really upset my daughter who was in the car with me. She seems better now, but keeps asking me questions like 'but why did you want to have an accident?' grr - 'I didn't!!!'

Thanks Nikkit x I used to take 'omeprazole' tablets all the time before I was pregnant as I suffer with heartburn alot. They were great as it completley stopped it but you have to take them eveyday.Since changing doctors I havent been in for it as I don't know if it can be taken whilst pregnant? Is that what the docs have given you?

Yes you can use that when pg. Think it works so much better cos it stops so much acid being produced. I've been really lucky and haaven't had any heartbutrn *ducks for cover*

Aww no that's awful, hope you are both ok.

Kindof the waterbirth session was just an info session although not all that informative really.

My god I'm watching Labour and Delivery on sky, it's American and this nurse/mw woman was saying that 98% of women who give birth in this hospital have an epidural. One woman was currently giving birth and not had any pain relief and the medical woman was being really forceful trying to get her to have some pain relief, she actually said that the pain wasn't natural !!!!!!?!

1more- The midwife just took my blood pressure, tested my urine and booked me in for my 25 week appointment plus my anti-d injections at 28 and 34 weeks. About it really.

Sonee- I have an angelsounds which I love. I've been able to listen to the heartbeat since 9+3 and it is lovely to listen to.

Kindof- She tested the sample I took in and then because of the protein asked me to do another sample which I took to the doctors. Though they was being really awkward about taking it but I said I couldn't keep coming up to the doctors each day until they would take it. Blooming awkward receptionists as usual!

Thats weird you would think they would want to test the wee that showed protein which is what they did with me, then they found nthing wrong with it? whereas a fresh wee might not have protein in it?

Gymfiend - I wonder why they have that restriction lol I mean surely it doesnt matter what you weigh in water?

Som - thats cool I have room in his case as well for more stuff (I still need to know if I Have to take towels)

Gill _ I agree I am not a peter andre fan either but its a totally different situation, dwight yorke has neverf played a part in harveys life, peter does in his kids so its totally different

SJ I have found that as well when watching the american shows, they practiacally force pain reflief on people

Just had a bath and was singing along to my music and the baby was really wiggling around. Either she loves my voice and was dancing or she hates it was was trying to find a position to cover her ears! lol
