Congratulations on the engagement Tigtag! I did see your lovely facebook pics, I showed my OH hoping he might get the hint but I doubt it! Nice bump pic too!

I feel sooo tired this morning, spent all last night tossing and turning, couldn't sleep at all. Then I woke this morning dying for the loo so much my belly was hurting. Really felt like the baby was growing last nite it just felt like it kept stretching and pushing my belly out more and more :eek: kinda freeky. Defo feels abit bigger today!

Congrats TigTag and lovely bump - although my seems to be the same size, will upload later!!

I too had a carp night sleep bl00dy cold and cut my nose through too much blowing which wouldn't stop bleeding. Not in work today as too exhausted and feel like carp so its jeremy today and hope to have a nap later. Can't wait for my week off next week.

Labour vibes to hazzle.

morning all

redmel - poor you, what an awful night!

DH felt bubs kick for the first time last night. He said 'are you sure - it's not just your tummy muscles is it?'. I said 'I wish my tummy muscles were so strong my love!!'

I slept through til 8.45 but have woken up with a stiff back from the soft bed. Friend is bringing the cot over about midday, I am quite excited!!

Evening all,labour vibes to those poor sods who are overdue.
I'm feeling pretty much the same as you Michelle and also have a midwife appointment on Thursday,will be getting a membrane sweep although when I had one with the last baby it didn't do anything at all.Hopefully this time it will get things moving if they haven't already.

I'm sick of trying things like curry,pineapple,nookie even,nothing makes any difference at all.I'll be still here in 2 weeks time probably.

Any false starts? I feel like nothing is going to happen for a while either, I dont want to be in bold on the EDD list! I had a sweep last week as mid/w offered to do it whilst she 'up there'. Brought on lots of cramps and that was it- was having contractions before it but they just went away- again.

Anyway, sorry about those who have had a rubbish sleep- you can add me to the list too. Lots of cramping- still the same- Im not sure if im having on/off contractions or if its just the baby twisting its head further into my pelvis... watch this space. Coming every 20 mins or so. But then again... knowing me, it will end up being constipation or something daft.

Congrats on the engagement Tigtag!!

I'm feeling so fed up today. I keep getting ratty with DS and DD for no reason at all, then I feel guilty. Every little thing annoys me, like the fact that the back of my jeans got soaking on the school run, then when it touched my leg as I took my shoes off I could have hit the roof!!! How pathetic
I think because my 1st two were 6 and 8 days early, I have been expecting this one to be similar, and now with only 3 days to go I'm feeling well overdue! Daft really as I know each one is different.
I'm actually sleeping really well, apart from the cats miaawing at 3am to come in Why can't they just come in before we go to bed??? :wall:

Anyway I'm feeling slightly better now I'm on the ball lol, bouncing like a mad woman.
TMI but I went to the loo earlier and I think it could have been 'the clearout' :jso hopefully things will get going very soon.

Hi Saz,

By clear out, do you mean a dodgy tummy? Hope so... had one on and off all morning. Is it a sign?! lol

SazM030306

That's the one Michelle
I can't think that it's anything I've eaten either, so it must be good news lol.
Yes apparently your body clears itself out in prep for labour and pushing... I wouldn't like to imagine the consequences if it didn't

MichelleM

Oooo... cant imagine the consequences either- especially since ive been told the best postition for me is on all fours/knees! :eek: :eek:

Well, these cramps are moving to my lower back too.... but really not getting my hopes up.

SazM030306

I had my DD in that position, much better than flat on your back!! Let gravity help lol.
Back cramps is a sign too, fingers crossed it progresses for you very soon I've not even had a pain yet, apart from sharpish ones like muscles stretching under the bump.

COME ON BABIES!!! x
