Watch out for the heavily pregnant lady walking around town like John Wayne with an M&S bag! Good to keep busy and positive Sammy x

Yay, I'm now 25th

Exciting stuff Sammy, hope that's you on your way Personally I'd pop a pad on then carry on every day tasks. Think it's more likely to get things moving rather than siting doing nothing :cool:

Thanks Keith, but think I'd be better going into a bed shop as really need to try the mattresses out. Dreams is our closest I think. If I see one I want I'll come home and order online as they do 5% cashback.

Good idea tidying the list up Teenie. I often think that most of the people on there I've never even seen post. Don't really see the point of being on the list if you don't post on here, but maybe those people lurk instead? Hey, we're not that scary!!!

Welcome Miss Wonderlust.

So, I slept a bit better on OH's firmer mattress. My hips didn't drag when I turned over in bed. I mean it wasn't an instant solution, but can hardly expect that. I've probably hurt my spine again anyway, so will see what physio says. She'll probably tell me off for not doing my exercises. Must do them every day and go on ball a bit more. I did yesterday as it helps when I have back ache. Hope she can do something to help as it is really hurting again.

Has anyone ever been induced because of SPD? I can't face the thought of going over, it is enough with my E.D.D in focus, without going over. Don't wanna be too early of course, but 37 weeks ish? Is it possible?

Got my first Kiddicare order today. They are supposed to text and email you your one hour delivery slot. They didn't text me, but I got an email that I'd get the delivery between 11.30-12.30. He turned up at 11.35 so very good. However he was very miserable - didn't respond when I said hello! I asked him to bring it in and he said he isn't supposed to, but usually gets asked that with the Kiddicare orders. I said yes probably because most of us are pregnant! It was a very heavy box so I couldn't move it. Anyway he brought it in. Will have to wait for OH to assemble it as the box is too heavy to manouvere and we have no room in here at the moment. The coffee table needs to be moved in order for the chair to fit.
I used Quidco and the cashback I got has paid for half of the raincover I purchased from Kiddicare for my MaxiCosi car seat :T

We got our draft contract through today and details for references, they have also put our house as 'Let Agreed' on Right Move so all seems pretty sorted and can relax a bit :j:j:j

Going to get in shower now and grab a quick bite to eat before we gotta go to physio.

Mammoth post from me!

Labour vibes to all overdue ladies as always x

Wow, this thread has sped up. Been reading on my phone but can't keep track of everyone specifically. Fingers crossed Sammy_girl and hope something happens before tomorrow duemarch11, you must be going out of your mind.

No news from me. Just wanted to say that debenhams maternity bras are hopeless. So uncomfortable and frumpy. No special features either. I'm off in search of some normal non-wired ones this weekend.

Yes, I was induced last time. I wanted a section but they said no, and after much crying and moaning they compromised at a 39 week induction. I begged because both my spontaneously started labours were 5 days late, and I said to me it felt like adding another week on to my due date, and I had already suffered 10 weeks in agony. I was induced at 39+1 and DS was born in the early hours of the next morning at 39+2.

I wasn't going to ask for induction this time as I wanted to use the midwife led unit, but now I'm thinking I probably will because I'm so fed up, and I'll have suffered 23 weeks of SPD by the time my due date gets here .... :eek:

Me.. Squeak was evicted at 37 weeks due to SPD and me being unwell... I staged a sit in at he hospital until the consultant came and gave me a date for eviction.. 5 days later.. I pleaded for sooner but he wouldn't budge lol

mrsspendalot

I would have been thrilled if they had induced me at 37 or 38 weeks .... but 39 weeks was better than 40+5 at the time .... I think I'm going to push for it again this time. I actually found it good for practical reasons too having an induction date, as I could organise the other children's childcare.

mrsspendalot

Well my day just got a little more interesting ...

Just had a huge 5 parcel delivery from Mothercare and my cot mattress from Amazon ... thanks for the links on Sunday ladies

I may not be able to walk 5 steps without wanting to cry, but thank goodness I can shop online

I now have everything I need for little man's arrival .... just not sure how I can fill the next 15 weeks

Afternoon ladies

I hope that everyone is well.

Sammy - Good luck! I hope this is a sign of everything starting off for you

Digital - I hope that you find a nice bed soon, and that you are able to move into your lovely new home soon

Teenie - thank you for doing the list

Welcome Miss Wonderlust its not too bad at the bottom and we will all be at the top before we know it

Debs - see, not the bottom any more

Mrs - i hope that you are able to get an induction date, do you think it is worth asking the midwife about it now so that you can get them working on your side?

Hope that everyone else gets the eviction vibes they need

I am being a bit odd today, i have been continuously hungry but dont want anything that i have here to eat, then again i am sure that if i were standing in the middle of the biggest shop ever i wouldnt be able to find what i wanted lol
