    Hi
    It's probably carpal tunnel, best to mention to your midwife. I did get referred to a physio for it. Mine's now caused by fluid retention. Just been to the drop in clnic to get my bp & everything double checked. My fingers are getting steadily worse, I now have no feeling at all in the tips of most of my fingers, when I grip anything it sends the rest of my fingers numb as well :( The only solution is giving birth! Little miss needs to get a move on - 11 days to go.

    Hi Perdi, wondered how you were getting on? I'm due a week today but very fed up. I have to go for twice weekly monitoring plus got consultant appointment on Wednesday when they might do a sweep. My BP shot up 2 weeks ago but seems stable now. The trace today showed occasional tightenings and query contractions according to my notes.

    I like RLT tea!

    Hiya madbird. Me too, had a rubbish day today, did nothing just sat around in a daze. I was coping with the elephant feet but the spreading numbness in my fingers has just got me down.

    Glad your bp is stable and they're keeping a close eye on you. Possible contractions - eek, hope things kick off for you soon! Then again you're not allowed to go into labour as that'll mean it's my turn next -scary :rotfl:

  • I'm fed up with the constant urge to pee. :mad:

    I can sit down after coming back from the loo & feel the need to go again. :o

    I can't wait to get control of my bladder back. :o
    I'd rather regret the things I've done than regret the things I haven't done.

    Same! I can't sleep for more than 3 hours at a time, the urge to pee wakes me up :(

    koalamummy everything seems to be fine now :) He has been moving around tonight so I think he is ok. Nice to feel him though as I was so worried!

    anderson If you find out what it could be can you let us know here as it seems some of us have the same issue :o

    BCS I know exactly how you feel! It is very annoying! I have been like that for a while now, just go to loo and then its like oh do I need to go again? But the first time there wasnt much there anyway so whats the point of going again yet lol.

    Back is a little sore from the fall and my hand stings but apart from that I am ok and so is bubs and that is the main thing. Husband said he isnt taking me anywhere else, I can stay at home bored if Im going to go falling over when he takes me anywhere :rotfl: and my sister has grounded me until I give birth. :eek: Went to see her tonight and she was saying what are you doing here, youre grounded! :rotfl:
    Borrowed a bag off her too so I can pack my hospital things, need to get that sorted this week hopefully.

    Oh I have noticed milk leaks :eek: There were some marks on the bed sheet and I thought maybe me or husband had been drooling in the night :rotfl:but it turns out its from me! I actually saw the leak yesterday so today have had on some breast pads just to be safe lol.

    Hope everyone is well x

    Finally managed to retrieve my iPad from where my boys hid it! It is apparently theirs now and I cannot touch it without permission! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Had food from McDonalds and seriously didn't enjoy it. :(. Don't usually have anything other than breakfasts from there but really fancied it tonight until I got it that is. :o

    Don't worry, I'm too scared of you :p

    I'm getting up 2 or 3 times a night to go the loo, add to that the need to wake up just to turn over in bed, leg cramps, heartburn if I lie on my right side...and the midwife felt the need to write in my notes 'looking very tired' :wall:
