    Grrrr the BH have started again an dim really not likeing them they ahve never bothered me in previous pregnancies but these ones are taking my breath and i cant move when they come on. I've just said to OH i hope this one isnt planning an early appearence like the second one did we dont need the stress. :-(


    Oddly enough I have said the same about 2000 times today.. DS3 was born at 31 weeks... and it is very very close!!!

    I had to stop on the school run because the pain was unbearable.. it feels like it is getting stronger again this even...

    Baby can't come until I have got the crib and tidied the hovel!!

    I've had a pretty gruesomely stressful day and it looks to be set in for the week.. I will be fit to collapse by Friday!

    Well I'm sitting on my ball again, supervising DS homework, and feeling a few twinges!!

    Just had a bit of a 'hand over mouth' moment, we heard a woman screaming "help me" out side over and over so everyone ran out of their houses to see. It turns out her little boy was choking on some food and she didn't know what to do! Someone helped her with him and all is well, but oh how awful.

    Hugs to all those that need them re sh!tty work and labour vibes to CAFC and others...inc me!!!

    is there a limit as to how long you should spend on a gym ball at any one time or can you just bounce away to your hearts content?

    Something of interest to the pregnant belly - Lidl have body pillows and pillow cases on Monday 14th. I got one last time and loved it, thought it was excellent quality.

    Hope you're all well!!

    kitkat.. I dread to think what OH's mum will be like.. I am already doing everything wrong.. not eating the right stuff, not going to antenatal appointments refusing to see a consultant, refusing to go to the nearest drug den to have the baby.. sorry.. abertoire.. no... no.. hospital.. She has first grnadchild syndrome and I have BTDT, been round the block syndrome lol

    I said to OH last night we really should choose a name or at least get a shortlist for when baby arrives.. I don't want to have 'Baby Noname' for the first few days again.. DS3 was almost a week old before he had a name.. then it came down to the toss of a coin lol

    These MILs are a pain! I keep getting lectured from my mum and OHs about not eating enough and not drinking enough, everyone seems to have this theory I need 2 eat double portions now I'm pregnant but it's not needed! I've heard something about upping calorie intake by 200 in the third trimester, but you can only eat what your comfortable with! I can't understand your MIL, I think you know what your doing with previous experience! I feel like my MW is no use and not necessary but as it's my 1st baby I think I'll carry on with appointments and then decide whether it's necessary if I have anymore babies!

    I keep getting BH, as this is my 1st pregnancy I'm not sure what to expect but last week I had them all day constantly. it did worry me that I was going to have the baby early but luckily today they have calmed down.

    Pigpen i managed to get to 35wks with DS1 the other two were full term and 4 days before full term so im hopeing this is just a phase DS1 was early because i had placenta previa and i was bleeding through most of the pregnancy luckily the placenta moved so i could birth him he was perfectly fine just small but i dont think i would want to go through having one any earlier. The stress and the upset you must have gone through popping at 31wks must have been awful. Loads of stay put vibes for you fingers crossed they stay put until your ready :-) x

    Thanks to sir monster for your concern, but I don't have a job, am a SAHM :p

    Hopefully we will all be suffering less tomorrow!

    Been given a massive bag of baby girl's clothes all in newborn :j will wash it and keep it in case monster is small enough for it and put it on netmums if she's big.

    I've taken to freezing a bottle of water and putting it by my bed at night so I have cold water to drink when I wake at 2am :rotfl:

    I got to 40 weeks... once...

    then did 37, 32, 34, 31, 35, 34, 34, 34.... thankfully they were all fine just a bit tiddly... my 32 weeker as shortest but 31 weeker as a pathetic 3lb 10!.. at 6 months he was 10lb due to lactose intolerance and reflux, he was not a well baby. Perfect PITA at 11 though!! lol
