It'l be a new year baby for me if I go early :eek: I don't want a new year baby, infact nor a January baby, too many family birthdays in Jan! Late January would be fine I guess. Look at me, planning, if only things went that way...

I've got loads of reasons I don't really want a Christmas baby! Loads of family birthdays in December already, plus Christmas! Plus I'll lose three weeks holiday if I have to start my mat leave early! I'm really hoping I'll go over although I know baby will come when it wants to...

I'm a bit paranoid something will happen at 34 weeks (I'm 29 weeks today) as I have been seeing the number 34 everywhere, every time I look at a clock, all sorts. I'm sure I'm probably just more aware of it now and subconsciously looking out for it now but even so... :rotfl:

My back hurts no matter how I sit it hurts, the only time it eases is I'm lying down, don't want to do that though! Grrr

Morning all.

Nothing much new- getting sick of not being able to sleep! Keep bizarrely thinking I'm going to go into labour next week in work as well- it's my last weekand my boss has been joking so much about it.... Would be a little early! Last time I posted the list I changed my date to the last one the consultant had given me.

I've read so much about labour, and I know I will recognise when I'm actually in labour, but keep worrying about it all the same. Keep thinking that for some reason I won't recognise any signs. One of my sisters didn't realise until she was almost 6cm dilated, and just got to hospital in time.....

Wonder if Raven is alright?

Tink, good luck!

Gilly, hot water bottle is only thing that helped. And I want a Starbucks, but 2 coffee's would be too much (DH doesn't drink them) but I want it because it's BOGOF!

I'm very contrary lately......

Was thinking about another starbucks today to make the most of the offer.

Oh my god Ravenlady you live near me ;-) Well sort of

Are you sure it was your waters? are you having any pains? hope you manage to get somewhere

It seems so me more show than anything now, no trickles since last night but as I am not 23+5 yet (1w+5 days away) there is very little they are willing to do apart from monitoring. I have to go down on tuesday if i want to be monitored but to ring up if i feel feverish as i may have an infection.

I dont know who I spoke to but I hope to god she wasn't a midwife, I asked if I came in if i started to get pains and she pretty much laughed down the phone saying that I wasn't viable yet so what was I expecting? I was told to go to A&E first as labour ward wont be able to see me (I know this is a downright lie as the Fern ward will see anyone from 17 weeks)

She also kept referring to its a 'miscarriage' which kept !!!!ing me of and just generally wouldn't let me come in and get checked to see if it was my waters leaking.

She sounded like the housekeeper from family guy, you ask her a question and she just keeps saying 'mmmm noooooooooo' like I was bothering her.

Lirin I had 2 smalls the other day, and planning on 2 today aswell, my OH doesn't drink coffee either, keep trying to tempt him, plus the Christmas drinks taste nothing like coffee anyway!!

Ravenlady It's terrible the way some people speak to you, I'd be especially annoyed if I was you, as it's not like you're over reacting. I would just have turned up if I was you.


It is so sunny here today, sun shining right in the window at the moment, freezing outside though, been awake since half 6, sort of bored now.

... cant believe the mw was so insensitive, really :mad: on your behalf. Lots of ((hugs)) for you this morning and keeping my toes crossed that you and bubs are fine and that nothing further happens, hoping its just one of those things.

Ravenlady, What a cow she was. I had a similar thing at about 26 weeks i was sweating a lot down there are having quiet a lot of discharge and told the midwife about it at my check and she sent me for monitoring although i was sure it wasnt my waters and baby was moving around loads i went and got monitored. it did put my mind at rest.


I had a really really bad night last night i felt really sick and acid kept coming up and down all night. I took gavascon before bed and that was going up and down to which tasted foul! every time i moved i felt sicker and sicker hardly got any sleep but i guess i rested!

I will be glad when this week is over so far i have
Monday - work with meeting with manager!
Tuesday- work
Weds- uni Weds evening- watching carnival!
Thurs- work and the builder is coming to rip the house apart
Friday- Car is off to the garage, builder will be here all day banging about!
Saturaday- NOTHING! i guess starting to put the house back together....

I wish i could fast forward to saturday as then i will only have one working day lefT!!
