Hello Only 4 weeks to go for me-and it can't come quick enough to be honest. The tablets i am taking for the acid reflux and heartburn help loads-but i still feel sick at the thought of certain foods ie tomatoes and for some reason bacon.

I am feeling very uncomfortable-baby really is wedging his feet/arms up my ribs and it hurts! Then his head is still bouncing around on my bladder etc making me feel like i need a wee a lot. I can't walk much now-back aches, bladders aches, etc etc It is annoying-i am used to being so active and i feel so lazy having to slow down!

Good news is i had yet another scan on tuesday and everything is looking good (last scan the consultant said baby was too small) and a good size. They have booked my next consultant appointment the day before my due date-but i am really hoping i don't make it!! And i will be seeing the midwife next week to discuss my birth plan-so far no one has mentioned induction or being strapped to monitors this time-fingers crossed i will be able to walk around more and be active/upright.

Hope everyone's ok xx

What I think is SPD is the pain in my right side of pelvis, top of my bum. It feels like a large rock is wedged inbetween my bones so when I walk it grinds on bones&muscles etc.
The worst it hurts is getting off the sofa, or out of bed, I don't know if it's where I relax, then put pressure on that leg, or the pressure on my bum when I'm sitting down making that leg useless when I get up!

Re-read my notes & I'm 2/5 palp, which means 3/5ths engaged, hoping that means I'll get an appearance in the next 2weeks. Not that I'm ready for him to be here, but really want to avoid Xmas!! Also he can't get too big then, so could achieve a natural labour! Really want to avoid c-section this time, I want to get home asap.

Love reading all your posts, don't always know what to say back but I follow your stories & have a good giggle at others in the same big fat (!) mess as me! lol

C'mon ladies/boldies, the birth list is getting shorter and shorter as time goes on, we need more babies to be born!

13th from bottom, I have moved a grand total of 5 places since i joined.

Eyelinerprincess Here's hoping, do you think you'l definitely get induced then? Or maybe baby will make an appearance before then?

Ravenlady I think it's 'cause a lot of people don't come over here for some reason, I've been here since I was about 12 weeks and was near the bottom forever.

Ravenlady when i joined i was right at the bottom and people kept joining with due dates before me making me feel even further down!! Your time will come!

My SPD is the same as yours saving mama. i cannot get out the car if i park to close to the curb i cant get myself up that high from in the car

Really glad you got a better night's sleep Gilly! Long may it continue for you

I'm 33rd now after the boldies... 25 working days left :j 59 days to my due date... Time is flying!

My heartburn has eased over the last few days, not really sure why as I haven't been eating anything different to previously so not sure why it's decided to give me a break... It'll probably come back with a vengeance soon though!

Have got my work Christmas meal on the 8th December, I really need to try and find something to wear... Anybody found any good places for maternity 'party' clothes? Doesn't have to be anything too fancy, even just a nice top I can wear with black leggings and boots... or a nice dress or something...

i was on the list from my last pregnancy so have been half way up then down at the bottom lol. im still at the bottom hopefully when we get to 24+ i will start moving because people will come over from the other thread.

Me too, didn't realise how much it was affecting me until I woke up today feeling normal. Looks like I will have to continue cutting out liquids in the evenings. I'm so used to drinking 2 litres a day though, it'l be a struggle to get it down me in less time.

Next have some nice tops/dresses online? Can order to store then return there and then if they're no good.
