    Lirin I don't think anything would have put me off to be honest

    But I think that is more down to the option of children nearly being out of mine and OH hands :( it is an awful feeling when you thought you had all the time in the world and then next thing you know every month may be the last month try.

    I am so greatful to be pregnant and can't wait for him to arrive it will be like winning the lottery !!

    It was meant flippantly, sorry.

    I don't think anything would have put me off either- but would happily do without all the more negative sides of pregnancy!

    Sorry was getting a lil bit serious there :)

    I'm sure from what I hear from other people who have completed th challenge, it is more than worth it!

    My sister had to stop work 12wks before EDD due to really bad SPD had a pretty traumatic birth with forceps and stitches and still said as soon as he was born she forgot everything he was so perfect.

    I'm focusing on that in the hope it is true x

    As much as this little one was a surprise I don't think anything would put me off either, I've heard horrendous birth stories and I've heard great ones.

    The only thing I would say is before reading this forum I wasn't quite as aware of how often bad things can happen in pregnancy, and it's made me a lot more thankful for every day I wake up and my baby is healthy. (I hope this doesn't offend anyone who has or is going through a tough time, it's just I want people to know I don't take it for granted)

    Sounds like Braxton Hicks - Im 30+6 days and have been getting them for a few weeks now. I find the bump goes hard at the bottom in the middle quite low down. Almost feels like the skin is being pulled or stretched from the inside. Only lasts for a minute at most but you can get it if you are dehydrated or need to empty your bladder. I dont find it painful -I just become aware of it and feels slightly uncomfortable. HTH

    Morning all. I've had BH from about 17 weeks and sometimes my tummy looks really odd shapes depending on where baby is positioned. Sounds like BH you are both having Lirin and Laura.

    Thanks. I have noticed my bump goes a funny shape and goes hard. Today they have started to feel really uncomfortable.



    I'm getting some boob leakage -i think soon i may have to wear breast pads as today it's come through my bra. Is it normal that its like an orange colour?:o

    My leakage is a creamy colour, sometimes completely clear. I've been wearing breast pads for about 2 months now. What a depressing thought that is. I bought the Tommee Tippee ones though and I much prefer them to boots own. Tesco are doing them at the moment for £2 odds. Much cheaper than the £4.07 I paid in Boots :mad:

    Glad you and OH are having fun Missy ;) must be good to have him back.

    I bought a box of fox's biscuits yesterday at Mr T's, they're the Viennese edition type, going down a treat with a cuppa here, yummy.
