    Awwwww lovely bunny:j

    I can't post my birth story:( Midwife today has said there are plenty of people to help me emotionally and that my emotional/mental wellbeing will be kept an eye on. I can't have any more babies now... but I have 2 lovely children so can't complain:)

    No more doom and gloom from me I promise!!!;):p My stitches are out and Daisy seems like her sunday morning lie ins.... she woke at 9 am!!!:eek::D

    I will be vacating the thread which is very sad but I need to move on!! I've got plenty of you on FB so I can keep an eye on you *evil laugh*:p

    One thing I will leave you with is.... ARNICA!! Smartie highly recommends it;):D

    Lovely baby Bunny :j

    Belly started itching today. Going to start with the Boots oil this evening. Don't know if it works or not, but I think that the thought that I might be doing something to help prevent stretchmarks will make me feel better!

    Getting a bit worried about GTT. I can tell when I've had too much sugar, as I start to feel a bit odd. Nothing I can quite put my finger on, but definitely odd. Hopefully it means I can keep things under control without any medical intervention.

    Thanks for having the chocolate for me. I do appreciate it. Keep it coming ;)
    If having different experiences, thoughts and ideas to you, or having an opinion that you don't understand, makes me a troll, then I am proud to be a 100% crying, talking, sleeping, walking, living Troll. :hello:

    Smartie.. my DD3 is 10 this year and I still cannot talk about her arrival.. Do what you need to do but don't store the emotion it is way too damaging. I had PTSD after her and it is horrendous.. offload on someone, write it down, talk it through but get the emotion vented.

  • Sarah it sounds as if your bump has si=hifted from being spine against your stomach wall to spine against your kidney/liver and booting you in the stomach wall.

  • Smartie - I second what pigpen has said. Don't be afraid to talk to people, or deal with it in what ever way helps. My sister's 3rd was a traumatic birth 2yrs ago and she didn't get any help, and is still traumatised when she thinks about it.

    Yoga was good - everyone seems very nice, and a lady from the previous course brought in her two week old baby girl so that was lovely :)

    Thanks ladies... just reading both your posts started the waterworks:o I'm a bit worried about PTSD pigpen. I do talk about it to friends, midwife that has visited and DH but it's really embarrasing cos I get in a right state!

    Luckily I have really bonded with Daisy which is a huge relief considering the birth plus of course the awful pregnancy too. I just love her to bits:D:D:D ...And she's watching the grand prix at the mo?!:rotfl:
