Google is the worse thing you can do. DD had a slight heart murmour when my mum took her doctors, obviously first thing i did was google it. Big Mistake ! Shes fine know though. Even now i cant help checking even though i know i shouldnt.

Thanks for letting me know about the tesco sale, need a Steriliser. Saw a tommy tippee one on asda direct for £30, which had 4 bottles and some of the travel powder things with it. So unless its cheaper or the same price i think i'll stick with that. Will be good to store up on wipes ready though.

I've decided i'm going to try and BF again, i managed 6 weeks with DD but in my youth i had my nipple piece, took it out a year later, but its never been the same. She struggled to latch on to it properly, so i really stuggled to feed from one and express from the other. It got too much so had to stop. They say every child is different so fingers crossed.

How is everyone feeling ? I'm only 24+5 and i'm knacked, i cant remember the last time i had a full nights sleep. I'm sure i wasnt like this with DD. If i'm feeling this bad now, i'm dreading the next 15 weeks. Although only 12 full weeks left at workor only 59.5 working days:rotfl::rotfl:

I am absolutely peed off big time. Spent the whole trip home stressed out and trying not to cry on the bus. Midwife rang hospital last week who said to give it 1 more week before they scan for the breech. She told me they will most likely want me in tomorrow or Monday. I go in today all hyped up ready knowing she is still breech. And she didn't ring them and said we will give it one more week til im 37 weeks and then let the hospital decide what to do. But she doesn't think she will turn. And said on the other hand if I go into labour I need to let them know im breech as its vital I don't deliver vaginally. So if that's all important why the heck are we bothering to wait. I've not even been scanned to see if they will try and turn her yet and its getting late and i'm getting stressed out now. I swear she makes it up every week. She says try not to worry - You try not to worry when you get told a different thing every !!!!!!!g week.

Massive hugs Rebekah, I know how much the breech thing has been playing on your mind too so I can imagine this hasn't helped at all. Did you manage to look into moxubustion?


LMM - I missed your post before lol, I'm beginning to think it's a conspiracy to stop me having money, last week Natwest broke, this week Amazon has broken. OH has just washed my hair for me so I'm going to go into town and then to my nans to pick up the crib bedding that goes with the crib we got from my mums friend

Aw Rebekah. Is it worth trying some of the positions which could help?

Also a lot of suggestions here (not sure about some of them but if it works...!)

Rebekah so sorry to hear that. that sucks. is there anyway you can actually ring the MW back and press on the issue?

i actually am roasting to death now as the tube journey into oxford circus was horrendous and i was gaslping for air. the plus side was i managed to find maternity jeans in a bigger size for 16 pounds, and got two summer tops (vesy types), and a summer dress (a size bigger). all for 46 pounds. i was impressed. it was hot in there too, so i was just so hot and bothered!:mad: i will be shopping online now as i know what fits and not. i was wishing the tube would arrive quickly and drop me quickly. nasty!!

those 'bubbly' feelings that i was talking about were like quick palpitations (sp?) in my belly. anyone feel those before? what are they?

Rups - are they very regular? If so, they could be baby hiccups! Monkey gets them all the time

You should have an icecream/icelolly to cool down - I have been hooked on chic ices recently. Yum yum!

Rebekah - huge hugs. Awkward baby! Could you ask your midwife about vaginal delivery? I was reading about breech as monkey was breech for a while and dr google (so don't take too seriously) said that it is possible to do a regular delivery, it just takes more skilled midwife.

Just a quick bit of MSE to keep us on track

I got an email in with a new mother care voucher code for 20% off when you spend over £100. Might be useful for some - who was looking for the cabriofix?

Go get the ice lollies!! I'm only jealous cause it's miserable here - grey and rainy, so no excuse for a choc ice.

Apparently babies swallow amniotic fluid as practice for after birth and sometimes they swallow too much and get the hiccups! I think it is hilarious
