Morning all,

Welcome cali77 and scottishchick27

Congratulations rakkibeth, museumworker and triangle glad you can all now enjoy your cuddles :j

to those who have mentioned lack of weight gain, i lost weight without sickness in first 10wks and then didnt go beyond pre preg weight until recently prob about 22wks bump is prominent but can still be hidden under certain clothes so people still dont notice.

sillymoo I have never watched obem either, programs like that have never grabbed my attention and i feel nervous enough without seeing how everyone else does it. I figure if i dont know then if its an easy one its a bonus and if its difficult then i wont know whats coming(pain/needles have huge fear of needles!).

bellola glad your feeeling better since monday, i guess we are all in different situations and it can be difficult at times.

little_miss_moneysaver glad your feeling better, i bet your really looking forward to that scan on saturday, i recorded by last heart beat check up on my phone to share with oh as he was at work. I suprised myself as to how many times I have re listened to it, i think the bear is a nice idea.

Well i think I have now covered everyone since I was last here monday pm, it certainly does move quickly round here. Tuesdays are always busy for me as im out pretty much allday from 8pm to 9pm but not for too much longer as the club i do in the evening is finishing for the summer in a couple of weeks then i will finish work 4wks after that.

Cant believe im number 37 now I only joined this thread last week and have already moved 10+ places. 29+2 now scary.
washing machine has just finished so time to put washing out then have shower and get dressed i guess.

catch up later and hope choclover is now enjoying cuddles

Have a good day everyone sending hugs and best wishes to anyone i have missed or who just needs it today

All this talk of hospital bags has me in a bit of a panic...I'm 32 weeks today and haven't started washing baby things or deciding what to take to hosp yet..gonna have to get my act together!

errrrr, I'm 34 weeks tomorrow and have only just started having thoughts of hospital bags, so I wouldn't worry! I don't even have a bag, never mind anything to put in it

On an exciting note - the shop just called and our pram and car seat have arrived in for us to swap with the wrong ones that they delivered yesterday! Woohooo!

Just need to persuade OH that we really do need to go and do that TODAY - shouldn't be too hard as he is desperate to start playing with the pram.

I'm 37 weeks tomorrow and am in the same position - no bag, nothing to pack in it (for me, baby clothes are washed and drying).

Had a busy morning - was tidying the mess we created when emptying shelves and drawers to put baby stuff in. Unfortunately after over an hour you can't tell any difference - it looks just as messy as it did :mad:

My objectives for today: 3 loads of washing, put away yesterday's washing once it dries (still a bit damp), make dinner, bake cupcakes (promised DH weeks ago!), start planning hospital bags and start an essay I have to do for my course. Wish me luck with all that - I'm really lazy and getting lazier every day so worried I'll just end up on FB and MSE all day!

Labour vibes to those who need them and a nice day to everyone!

I'm leaking. Can't tell what it is though... discharge, wee-wee, amniotic fluid, who knows?

Have you tried smelling it? I read you've to put a fresh pad on and if it's wet after 30-60mins then it's amniotic fluid. But I'm no expert so may be talking rubbish.

Hopefully things are starting for you :j

Kangaroo Care: Why Does It Work?

By the early 1980s, the mortality rate for premature infants in Bogota, Colombia was 70%. The babies were dying of infections and respiratory problems, as well as lack of attention paid to them by a bonded parent. “Kangaroo care” for these infants evolved out of necessity. Mothers of premature infants were given their babies to hold twenty-four hours a day—they slept with them and tucked them under their clothing as if in a kangaroo’s pouch. If a baby needed oxygen, it was administered under an oxygen hood placed on the mother’s chest.

Doctors who conducted a concurrent study of the kangaroo care noticed a precipitous drop in neonatal mortality. Babies were not only surviving, they were thriving. Currently in Bogota, babies who are born as early as ten weeks before their due date are going home within twenty-four hours! The criteria for these babies are that they be alive, able to breathe on their own, are pink and able to suck. However, their weight is followed closely, and they can be gavage-fed if necessary.

Morning ladies

Fluff, sounds promising, fingers crossed you're getting mummy cuddles soon!

slow start for me today, we've got a work away day from 2.30-10pm, so had a lay in this morning. Tried on my dress for Ascot on Saturday, and it's too tight (fitted 2 weeks ago!) but found a back up option so should be ok. Weather doesn't look good though, so may need an extra cover up layer! Think this will be last time I can get away with a non-maternity dress, but one of my sisters has a nice one I can borrow for a few months Handy being the 4th one to have a baby
