Is it really possible to be THIS tired???

Yes it is.

How are you feeling apart from tired?

Hopefully they will pull their finger out and squeak will be here soon

Squeak will be here by the end of the week..

Lemonade seems to have poked my kidneys into working slightly better... but my liver isn't happy.. apparently I am 'not made to be this pregnant' so I am slowing rotting away lol.. My Hb is about 8 now I think they said.. They wanted me to go in today for blood transfusions.. erm.. no ta! I've done NOTHING since Friday and my feet are less swollen thank goodness.. which means they actually wobble when I walk now rather than just being totally waterlogged and solid. My blood pressure is getting really high for me and my pulse rate instead of being aout 65 is 128ish!!!

OH and DD1 taking 3 huge piles of stuff to charity shop so I can get the bags and car seat in the car.. that'll clear a teeny bit of space in the bedroom!!

Oh dear

Netmums pickups done , got the fabric bit from the door bouncer and the playnest covers in the washer. Made a lovely bacon baguette for lunch and have my feet up!

and since typing the above Tesco have been...nice man was happy to carry it upstairs

Everywhere is a bit messy so once I've had a rest I will quickly tidy round, wash up and wrap DH's presents.

I need to have a serious tidy too my house is a pigsty!

I can't really cope with mess, doesn't have to be anally tidy but I do get a bit stressy if it's not ok...god help me when the baby is here I know it will be much harder!

I am lucky with our netmums, partly it's the area and partly I do keep my eye out for stuff.

Hi, just popping on to announce the birth of gorgeous Isla Rose, born at 12:10AM on August 2nd (today), weighing 7lb 12ozs and perfect in every way

Marathon labour of 25 hours - but managed at home with TENS, a little bit of pool and gas and air from 7cms after waters were broken by the midwife. Only 5 stitches needed but lost quite a bit of blood (800ml) after I didn't have the syntometrine injection and narrowly (but very happily) avoided transfer to hospital.

Was so lovely having her at home. Am totally knackered but so so happy

Good luck to everyone else who is due. Labour started after a pretty textbook menu of sex, massage, a glass of wine and some chocolates!

HUGE CONGRATS :j:beer::j:beer::j:beer::j:beer:

gems - that sounds like it will be a challenge! I'm jealous that you only have 1.5 weeks left...I have 4.5
