Morning Ladies
Welcome Teerah and congratulations. We stayed team yellow too. I'll be 30!!! weeks tomorrow :eek: Is this your first?
All the best to Mozzy and Sitting for this week, you have both been so patient, bet it's been a nightmare with constant messages to check if baby has arrived yet! Soon will be though and will be more than worth the wait.
Had a fairly quiet weekend, at work today then off for the day tomorrow to see Les Mis (christmas present from my parents) so will be off wednesday as well as we wont get back from London till early hours so a nice short week for me.
Keep meaning to ask, does anyone elses baby movements sometimes feel like it is fitting? Its wired to described and has been going on for weeks but sometimes it just goes mental in there? Wish I could see what s/he is up to!0 -
Yeh I know, I think I was a bit ambitious with my proposed maternity leave. However, my logic was that I'd rather spend time with the babies when they come rather than sitting at home twiddling my thumbs. It also works better for us financially too.
I got a couple of nighties from primark today for my hospital bag. I'm quite happy to bin them afterwards. Still need a dressing gown and I missed out on that next one during the sale. I'm aiming to pack one pair of jogging bottoms but the rest will be nighties for "ease of access" :rotfl:
Oh, and my belly has grown again today!
The consultant I saw at last appointment (the whole 2 min of it), for 80% of the time was telling me not to be too ambitious and think about finishing work by 28-30 weeks. I have just submitted my holiday request starting April 1st, so I could finish work by 30 weeks. Not sure I will last that long though. My hip pain is still there, not any worse, but in addition, my groin is starting to hurt more and more, I was only having an occasional pain before last week, but over the last week, every night it is painful to move in bed. Adding that to the upper/lower back pain and the pain under the ribs at the front, makes a very uncomfortable time.
I took a sick leave today as well. Feeling a bit bad about taking it right after my holiday, but I had no sleep what so ever tonight (ok, maybe couple of half an hour snoozes), and don't feel able to function today, let alone driving to the station, getting to the office and sitting at the desk all day. Have been coughing all morning as well, hope I haven't caught some bug. Also, my bump was aching tonight, the best position for me to lay in bed was on my back so the bump wouldn't hurt, but then the back would start complaining. If I turned on the right side, the hip would complain, turned on the left side, the pain under the ribs would be back and heart would be pumping so hard, I could actually hear my heartbeat! Sorry for all the complaints.... I am only 23 weeks today, I am not sure what to expect for the other 15 weeks! (If I last that long!!!!!)
We picked up our cat from cattery yesterday on the way home from the airport, and he seems not to stop meowing. He is always like that after we have been away, so I guess he will be spending the rest of the day on my lap (once the laptop is off), and I plan on sleeping on the sofa.Spring into Spring 2015 - 0.7/12lb0 -
Oh, I was going to ask about the mattresses for the Moses baskets. Any suggestions? I was thinking about getting the Clevamama foam ones, they seem to sound ok, and might help to reduce the flat head syndrome as well. What other have got who use Moses baskets? (we got the baskets second hand, so want to replace the mattresses)Spring into Spring 2015 - 0.7/12lb0

Morning everyone. Wow Mozzy and Sitting,you'll finally be mummies this week. Must admit i'm a tad jealous.:)
Well boiler a bit unpredictable still but managed to have a hot bath and heating seems to come on when it feels like it:( Thank god its warming up weatherwise.
Off to visit sis in law this afternoon for a nice takeaway as its FIL's birthday today. I'm thinking a hot indian may get things moving....:D:happyloveBaby girl born 27/2/12:happylove

Thanks Laura!
I've found the easiest way to fend off messages is to tell everyone how fed up you are...they soon shutup after that...I mean noone really wants to listen to a hormonal womans whinging!! :rotfl:
If anyones asked the past 2 days mind I've just started crying!!:o
Would have really liked to avoid induction ( and I know a lot can happen to change that in the next 48 hours) but I've resigned myself to it now and as long as both me and the bairn are ok at the end of it then I'm happy, but I would have really liked to go naturally. Suppose I just can't shake the feeling that my body should be getting on with it...and it's not...so feel like I'm useless already!!
Blumin hormones and lack of sleep!! :rotfl:
Talking of sleep, is it bad that I'm already back in bed?!:o
Don't feel bad gin!! Looking after yourself is the most important thing at the mo0 -
38 weeks today eek!!!!! Still potentially 4 weeks til baby comes tho, and thats depressing
Congrats on becoming a boldie Keza!!!! o
