I saw that last night. Every shot of her as a little girl being so joyous and into everything and just like every other two year old nearly broke my heart. I'm not normally sentimental but I guess the pregnancy hormones are affecting me!

I've just seen her get her new wig and hair cut!:eek:Awww:o:(Her first ever hair cut. Wow that nearly tipped me over the edge.

Hi Nutella, glad to hear you and baby are doing fine. It's so nice to hear that it's going to be ok!

No it's not sad at all, I can't wait to be able to tie my own shoelaces or pick things up off the floor without struggling to breathe!!

The other half's had to start helping me put my socks on. Plus I got stuck in the bath last night. I'd managed to lie down and couldn't sit up again

Lovely day today. Actually met my consultant at the hospital today - he's an absolute box of frogs. Lovely, but nuts. Baby boy is growing at a rate of knotts. He's on the 90th percentile now (the boy that is going to be small) after being on the 50th last week.
Anyway he's pretty sure the palps are nothing but talked about what they might do for me. He also said, to sack off work if I'm not well and told Andy to make sure I'm listening. He was very firm on me not working past 36 weeks under ANY circumstances. Which is lucky given I'm a teacher and won't be. Ha ha.
Also went to mothercare to try out some prams that we've been looking at on the internet (obviously not to buy in mothercare). Anyway, we saw a travel cot that I like that was £90 reduced to £70, thought about it and then found out display was the last one. Soooo, we ummed and ahhed and they said they would reduce it. Then we found some marks and I made out like I didn't want it anymore so they reduced it to £50. Yey!

Really glad to hear the palpitations are nothing to worry about, twinklie

Thanks honey, he seemed to think the cardiologist might put me on beta blockers but said he's fine with that if that happens. He thinks it's just extra strain on the body which is what I've been saying all along.

Just a quick update, nothing much to report I'm afraid!

Had a nap for a couple of hours this avo, which was nice and I'm feeling pretty good now. Contractions have tailed right off though, annoyingly. Just got back from a walk with DH, to try and get things going,.had a few contractions whilst we were out. Not painful, and in fact feel less intense than the ones I've had the past few days, I'm not feeling as much pressure down below.

Back to bouncing on my ball now!

BB - glad to hear waters broke naturally, hope things speed up for you. i have visions of this happening to me at work eeekk! i have actually thought about taking a change of clothes in incase it does lol

Rebekah - thanks for the info on SPD, the past week i have started to get bumb pain and have struggled to put knickers, trousers on balancing on one foot, so might be the start of for me. hopefully wont get too much worse before baby comes

ww2b - yay for baby now here and thanks for the updates

re supplements holland and barrets is actually really cheap for supplements i pay £18 for my preg multivit (has really good but safe high levels of loads of vits and mins) thats with 30% off as well.
i was precribed iron from my GP but i couldnt tolderate it - make me feel sick and gave me stomach pain. so i researched one from a company called biocare which is iron phosphate a different form of iron which is less harsh on the digestive system. i am taking them now and feel the tiredness has improved a lot

only a month left at work, anyone else working till 2 weeks before due date? i am hoping i can manage this. work are really supportive though and i can go and lay down when i want. i am really up to date with my work at the moment which feels good. have a hand over with the lady who is covering me for mat leave on tuesday.

i am off out for a meal with a friend,

Laura
