    oooh bella, you poor thing, don't be sorry. you're nearly full term pregnant, its right to feel emotional and upset especially when you're so uncomfortable and have had very little sleep! I know its hard especially as you just want the baby out now and everything to return to normal, but it's not long now hun, Have yourself a nice bath or a shower and make yourself a cuppa, write yourself a list of things to get done today, which is what I try and do then, when I've actually attained something with the day I feel so so much better.

    I'm sorry I can't be there to give you a hug hun, you sound like you need one. chin up my lovely, pm me if you need me xxx

    Thanks hun :) I think I would be better if OH was a bit more understanding, he tries but isnt the most sympathetic of people, he just tends to get on with things, where as I like a good moan to make me feel better lol.

    Feeling much better than I did not as emotional, I have been to post office to pay in some money in the bank for my savings which comes out on friday and local £1 shop for some cleaning wipes, already started the fridge before I went to drop DS off

    Have just had some breakfast, steak canadian and cheese butty :) (very healthy! lol) gonna make myself a nice brew and watch the end of a film I started watching last night, The Thing! its such an old cheesy horror I love it.

    Plus i'm having a few pains and feeling lots more pressure so hopefully we are moving in the right direction, i've got midwife in the morning hopefully baby will have engaged some :)

    oooh Bella glad you're feeling better hun. It's the other way around in our house, OH is the sympathetic one and I'm the "oh shut up and get on with it" one:o I'm afraid to say.

    Ooooh hoping it is all moving in the right direction hun. I've got my midwife appt on friday, although like every other time I doubt she'll do anything apart from be grumpy, take my blood pressure, listen to baby's heart beat and send me on my way :mad: Can't say I'm her biggest fan!

    I see a different midwife everytime usually, might see the same one for 2 weeks running but not always, had some nice ones and some horrible ones too. I never heard back from my blood tests last week so must be ok :) hoping my blood pressure is ok tomorrow, and hope everything is ok with you appointment too :)

    I have completely cleaned out the fridge looks much better, made me feel better too and have put a wash on.

    Gave up on my film family keep ringing me trying to tell me what to do, sometimes I feel like i'm still a child arghhhhhh still feeling rather uncomfortable today, but the weepiness has past for now :)

    How you getting on with your chores? bet your doing brill as usual :)

  • Hey bella, haven't done much, due to waking up at 4.45 and being awake til 7, then falling back to sleep and waking up about 9, Have cleaned some bits and pieces in the kitchen but have loads to do, Have just come back from the dentist and sainsbury's. Feel rather sick, not sure if its the coffee or need to eat something or just being pregnant full stop, really really uncomfortable today, can't believe I still have 9 weeks to go :( really hope I don't feel like this the whole time x

    I'd recommend both coffee and food :) i've had another butty lol feeling really hungry today and i've had hot chocolate with squirty cream! yum yum

    Think i'm gonna have a coffee then clean up the kitchen, shouldnt take long just a few bits to wash up, wipe round, clean the hob and wipe the tiles behind the hob.

    Ok just done my half hour cleaning, actually more like 45mins, whilst watching a horrendously old film called 'Please Sir', proper 70's/80's cheese its so cheesy it's funny.

    It took me a little while to get going, but in the end I:
    cleaned both sinks
    cleaned the tv
    cleaned the kettle
    cleaned the coffee grinder
    cleaned the coffee maker (these are all black and a real pain for dust and dirt)
    wiped over the window sill
    put away rest of shopping
    unloaded dishwasher
    wiped over tea and coffee containers
    wiped and shone the worktops

    phew!! Still tons to do but will do it in bits as back and front are very sore :(

    I know what you mean about the black appliances, I have black tiles and other black bits in my kitchen not to mention the black glass tv cabinet its a pain to keep looking clean.

    Well i've hoovered downstairs again :) wiped round the kitchen, picked DS up from school :) still having a few pains really hoping this is the start of things dont think it will be knowing my luck probably just braxton hicks. However one of the mums at school said I looked flushed? like I was ready to go into labour! didnt think there was a look? but we'll see ;)

    Might manage a quick wipe round the bathroom before OH finishes, really really want something good for tea ummmmmmm decisions ..........
