RebekahR piles? they are totally a pain in the rear end (excuse the pun) BUT they do go away after baby is born, thank goodness! Mine have been better with the cream that i bought

Thankfully I have avoided piles so far.....but then I thought the same about stomach stretch marks and those little b*ggers were just waiting to surprise me at about 38 weeks....hmmmm....!!

Oh I must say, iron tablets (or rather the effects they have!) are vile!!

If I had a £ for every time i've thought that every hour of the night :rotfl:

I have had mine since the pregnancy test said 1-2weeks

I think I have been lucky thought as they aren't painful or bleeding just there.

Turtlemoose The last four times I've been to see the midwife/obstetrician they've said I had protein in my urine and sent it off to the lab. It's come back twice to say there's mixed growth and could I send another sample - both times it must've been contamination or my body getting rid of something very quickly because the second sample came back negative.
At the moment I'm waiting for yet another result after receiving a 'mixed growth, please send another sample' letter but by now I've decided that I'm just hopeless at peeing into a jar

*hugs* to rebekah, hope you get some relief.

*hugs* to BB - you sound perfectly normal to me. I'm excited about baby and really want to meet him but one of the reasons why I want him out is simply because then I will be able to see he's ok rather than relying the fact I can feel him moving. I felt kinda abnormal last weekend as my friend whose pregnant is so excited, organised and already thinks of herself as a mum and she's not due for another 3 months. Whereas this is alien to me and I can't let myself think of myself as a mum in case something bad happens.

I'm also wibbly about how I'll cope after baby arrives but as everyone else has said, we will be fine and the important thing is to trust our instincts and not be afraid to ask for help, guidance and support when we need it.

Well I have done some useful things but as predicted I also fell asleep. Washing has been done and is out to dry, got some milk, have bought and wrapped my OH's presents - I have also mislaid one - I hid it in the cupboard awhile ago and my OH found it while tidying up on Saturday (fortunately it was wrapped so he hasn't a clue what it was) and now I can't remember where I moved it to, may actually have to ask him
Discovered Morrisons is selling large packets of Haribo for 52p which is terrible
Paid the electrician then fell asleep. This afternoon I MUST study - or baby can make an appearance which would be good excuse not to study

Afternoon all

Just popped on to say hope things get moving for you soon Miss Money

Welcome to the3muskateers (and anyone else I have missed)and congrats

BB What you are feeling is completely natural I think others have given very good advice but just wanted to add, I felt exactly the same when pg with DS but all those feeling vanish in the first few days of looking after your baby You can do it all and you will do it all, just try and enjoy the rest of the pregnancy (easier said than done I know) you WILL be fine

Do you think pregnancy hormones could be used as a defence in court? My neighbours have had three nights this weekend of having friends over - last night being the worst as me and OH were sat in the kitchen with a brew at 3am due to the fact neither of us could sleep cos of the noise... Poor OH only got 2 hours sleep in the end as he had to be up at 5.30am for work I swear one more night of it and I will do something daft - I am stupidly tired

Hope all ok, hugs to those who need/want em!

Well I would guess it is. Was a bit of a lumpy poo (Sorry! TMI!!) Got myself in a odd position with a mirror and couldn't physically see any outside but they might be just inside I guess. No pain and no real itching either ... yet ... Odd!lol

It could just be that you're slightly constipated then Rebekah and have torn a little.

Ye could be. Was enough for a good 4 wipes or so. I'll keep an eye on it and up that fruit Already very good with my fluid and veg/salad intake. Guess everything is going to sag south now eh! I'll blame little lady - she was plummetting my anus and cervix very hard yesterday the sharp pain had me shouting out in agony more than once! Turn baby turn!!

Re Ewan the dream sheep - I am tempted to purchase but my mother thinks a baby should learn to get its self to sleep. I'm thinking maybe wait until baby arrives and if he/she is hard to settle getting one then. All I have read are good reviews but I'm just not sure.
