Hi all

Had an awful day today, everything got on top of me and had tears and everything, at least its the weekend tomorrow....

Gosh, this thread moves really fast :eek:

RBG - Great news about your dad :j

Perdi - I got a long pillow from Lidl, think it was about a tenner....

Cpoir - My mw recommended me to take RLT, I take capsules and work on one capsule is one cuppa, i'm 37 weeks and take around three a day...

Salski - I was mentioning the eviction notice to my OH, he's all up for the sex part of it :rotfl::rotfl:

Sparkle - Fab news on the scan.....

Coops - How did the chat with OH go regarding his work? Hope you got it sorted!

Eco - No real advice i'm afraid, but I would go with the letter I think. I've had three miscarriages, all at different stages and they were heartbreaking, but i've never been 'bitter/hurt/jealous' (sorry, not sure what the word is i'm looking for!) over someone else's baby news. Its a whole new thing for you and OH, you should embrace it, not hide it away!!!

When I had DS I had to have a epi and a forcep delivery as he was posterior, stuck and going into distress, a student also knocked the stirrups while I was being stitched and I tore even more.... It was horrendous for a few weeks after, especially when it was loo time (sorry if TMI) this time round I was ready to ask for a section, however the mw talked me out of it, saying that as everything is nice and stretched down there and should be easier, however OH knows that if bubs is back to back again then I want a section - I dont care what anyone says.....

I've got my last mw appointment tomorrow and she's coming to the house, think this is cos i'm wanting an home birth, but not really sure... I'm sure she'll love me when I announce the above about the stitches etc.....:rotfl:

Re milk - I've been told by my mw that nothing is provided in hospital, so they are pushing bf more.... I've bought a couple of those ready made C & G pouch things just incase, but as i'm hoping for an home birth OH will just sterilise a bottle if I can't BF for any reason....

Food time and early night for me, hope I feel better tomorrow....

welcome to the newbies and labour vibes to those that need them....

Hope we have a couple of new arrivals over the weekend :j:j

I scored 94 points on a word in scrabble

What's the difference between playing a 'casual' or a 'serious' game? Anyone know?

_pale_ Oh my god!

Sorry you are feeling so down Hope you have a restful weekend.

Actually while talking about stitches I meant to say before, now this probably sounds really gross but it certainly helped me, I used to wee in the shower after I had DD as the stitches were so painful and the relief was amazing. Obviously I couldn't jump in the shower evertime I needed a wee but I would try and hang on until I went in the shower before I done my first morning wee when the urine is more concentrate, just a suggestion.

Today I lay on the couch and done SFA.lol. Just couldnt get motivated at all. Oh well tomorrow is another day and hopefully I wil get a good nights sleep tonight.

Oh I got measured for my nursing bra in M&S. What a palaver. I went in on Monday and had to make an appointment, which was today. The lady was excellent - provided a really good service. Unfortunately the bra I decided upon wasn't in stock in the size I need, so I had to order it and the stupid woman at the order point was just useless. She took forever then when she got to the final screen she;d ordered the wrong size so had to start again. Got there in the end but now I have to go back monday to pick up the bra. Spose it gets me out of the house for a bit.

Bit disappointed that my boobs haven't really got big. I was a 36C before preggers and I've been predicted a 38C for when my milk comes in.

Anyone else struggling to walk? Its so painful!! And I keep getting stitch like pain in bump, dont remember this from last time : (

I started getting the stitch like feeling when I walked too fast/too far from about 25 weeks I think....basically when I got a decent bump.

I can't hardly walk now. It makes me wonder how these pregnant ladies go for 1 hour walks to try and bring on labour. There's no way I could do an hour. 10 minutes is too much for me now. Shame as I had wanted to go for walks with mum and the dog while on mat leave. Will have to wait till after baby is born.
