I am bag packing this week.. If I have baby at 31 weeks like I did DS3 I want to at least show some semblence of preparation..

and I cannot be in denial either we are still tap dancing on the ribs... I thought babies were SUPPOSED to tuck themselvs inside your rib cage for protection and the rib cage splay to cover that.. what do mine do? Curl their squirmy selves on the outside of my ribs and dance on them!!

I am VERY pleased we aren't breech this week as riverdance on the bladder is hellish

MERFE

right I'm up grrr.

Morning everyone, hope you are all getting a bit more rest than me.

Went to bed around 8:30ish then woke at midnight for a wee, straight back to sleep till 3am, now I can not get back to sleep. Was tossing and turning for an hour but thought it best to move before I disturbed OH. Also I'm getting alot of pains in my stomach muscles when I move in bed or blow my nose or cough, kind of where my c-section scar is, not sure if its something I should be worried about or not?

Thought it best I sat up on the sofa anyway so I'm coughing etc less.

Morning all sorry you had such an earlier start Merfe. Had a lovely chilli at MIL yesterday but had uncomfortable but not painful stomach ache all last night, slept but when I woke up for one of my 5 wees or just to turn over I noticed it. Still got it very mild may be the start of something or may be the chilli anyway going to friends for coffee this morning and MW this afternoon. Sure its just wishful thinking I'm sick of being pregnant now and I've had no other symptoms.

I had more BH's last night, for some reason was still awake at 1am :eek: and I had to get up this morning because I need to go and see my solicitor about muppet's contact application :mad: thats going to be a mission in itself although I won't burden you ladies with the details

Sorry about your lack of sleep MERFE, I hope you manage to catch up at some point today!

Ah well. Best go and get in the shower. Luckily for me I saw the weather forecast which suggests that the nice looking morning currently outside is going to turn in to rain at 11am so I'll save some time by not straightening my hair. No point if it's going to get wet!

Big birth vibes to everyone needing them whether due or just fed up of being pregnant and wanting it over

I've had a joyous weekend. As most of you know I am now anemic :T Then my dad "joyfully" informs me that my nan has lung cancer.....

She's been given 6-9 months so hopefully she'll still be ok to see the baby when born. I haven't cried yet but I very nearly did when I found out. This is the first family member that I have known to be dying. Her husband died 4 years ago suddenly of cancer. So my poor dad might have lost both parents in less than 5 years

On a happier note though, the iron tablets I've been given are amazing! I've never felt like I have so much energy in all my life

Nene, *hugs* - so sorry about your nan.

Hopefully someone who has had a c section can advise a bit better, I think you should mention it to the MW asap though:D

Nene how awful sorry to hear that. Yay for iron tablets though!

It's weird, I think if I hadn't have had the Iron tablets I would be a mess as i was really depressed and weapy and low on energy before. Thank god for Iron tablets lol.
