morning all.....

I see the insmoniacs club wasn't in operation last night :T fab news....
DueMarch - Congrats on 35 weeks....

RBG - Take it easy, have a day off today and let the swelling go down

MI3 - Any news????

Hungry - Hope things are going ok????

I've been reading about jeans and i got mine from Next (under the bump ones) however I found these really uncomfy after about 33 weeks and have been living in leggings since.....

RLT - I take one tablet as one cuppa and have about 4 a day.....

Been looking at the few comments about evening primrose - is there a benefit to taking this? Sorry, I think I must have missed the conversation.... Would it make bump come quicker??

I really want her out now, not to queue jump though :rotfl: but I have to go back to work 2nd week in June, so the quicker she comes the more time I have with her.....

Nothing planned for today, OH done nights all week, including Friday for overtime, so dont think he will want to do much, so housework for me....

Hope we all have great weekends...

I didn't know about it until I happened to come across it last week while looking at something else, seemingly it has natural prostaglandins (sp?) which get's the cervix ready for labour. I'm not sure if it will induce labour as I just used RTL with DD.

morning ladies and bumps,

OH came back from work last night and we now have another problem with the car grrr, has started shuddering and the engine light has come on. Going to ring my Dad in a bit to see what he suggests, praying is nothing too expensive to fix. That car has cost us so much in the last month.

Morning All.

Have been a lurker for a while as I've no news really. Still got the rib/side pain so going to docs first thing Monday.

Anyone have a really low bump/baby? I know my bump is neat but basically s/he kicks around the pubic bone most of the time. If I'm laid in bed it's around the navel but hey ho it must be so forward planning it wants to hang out down there. I know it likes to move if laptop edge is on bump so not sure what that feels like to it.

Got my 3d/4d scan on Friday so really looking forward to that. I'm excited to see and know what way up it is as I haven't got a clue which is a kick or an elbow or hand etc etc.

Building work ticking on nicely. Need to get funds in place to pay everyone! Got my letter from HR too to see what I'll be paid. All in all with savings I should be just as straight as when I'm working. Plan to go back Feb 2012 part time using hols so would be full time money til April then go to 3 days. Fingers crossed that's what I manage to arrange.

Right, time to get up and jog on to Ikea. DH is finishing his wall and I'm trying to do a day out to myself for less than £50. I'll be good. x:)

Hi Fanta,

Mine only seemed to kick me really low down until 2-3 weeks ago and now i get them higher. 3d/4d scan will be good, make sure you post a pic!

Morning lovely ladies, hope all ok. Well I finally got up, put washing on...and gone back to bed, had about an hour awake last night, just feel as though all energy been drained out of me. Might take duvet to sofa as irritating neighbour doing his usual noisy wrecked car grinding drilling etc

Got scan date for 11th February, will be having stern words with baby between now and then to make sure they cooperate!

Oh and in exciting news my first job seekers allowance payment is in my bank account:)! I'll try not to spend all at once!

Managed to drop off last night in between BH, which I find painful as they push my uterus in to my ribs. Yowch.

Slept right through till 5:30 when DH started asking if it was time to get up? Was I having contractions? How was I? To which I replied 'Asleep' and he rolled over and started snoring. I was asleep shortly after, so not too bad.

BH are still going, but not so regular now. Looks like all your sticky vibes are working. Thank you Keep em coming.

Just finished the painting of the woodwork in the bedroom and repacked my hospital bag. Just a couple more things to bung in at the last minute and we're all set to go (but not yet sproglet. another week).

For anyone who is a bit like me and dosn't want to call the delivery suite in case their questions sound silly, just do it. They were really lovely and didn't think I was being silly at all. They really put my mind at ease.

Hope you all have nice relaxing Saturdays.

Afternoon Lady Bumps.

Well, I'm third from going bold on the list. Seems like yesterday that I was at the bottom.

Been to the hospital today to check where it is we will need to be going when I go into labour. Due one week today :eek:

Also had a chance to fit the carseat into a car which seemed fairly straight forward. (We don't have a car ourselves)

Went to a friends last night that live 8min walk away. They came and picked us up and we walked home, must of taken 20mins. It was freezing cold so I was shivering and I had a pain on the left side of my bump which felt like stitch. My Mum suggested it could be the weight of the baby.

Im drinking gallons of RLT, bouncing on my ball for at least two hours a day and have clary sage oil in my oil burner. Just trying to give bubs the right idea

Hope your all well

I'm about to murder the two I already have. What possessed me to want a third???

Totally exhausted but have loads to do.
