  • Rakkibeth aren't fit flops just the best? A friend of mine mentioned footwear but because of my dodgy bits I try and be a bit sensible. I've got four boots and three flip flop fit flops. They're amazing, expensive to buy but amazing! Glad I have them as I'm not sure I could justify spending that much now.
    Might have a look locally for osteopaths, have seen a chiropractor and had acupuncture in the past and found it great. I'd not really though about it - blame baby brain! Thank you for suggesting it.
    Miss Money maybe your dad could take you? Or a friend?
    Just having a sit down between shopping bags, there's so much of it. I've a huge plastic crate where I'm stockpiling food for harder times when I'm on SMP. Still two lovely men bought it all in for me and put it on the sofa for me. Rather them getting all rained on than me.

    little_miss_moneysaver - i don't like asking for help :o that's a big part of half my problems i think! the midwife has just rang to ask whether I have booked a gps appointment to talk about my depression yet. I haven't done it. I do feel very down and tearful everyday but then I think I'm being silly and theres no need for the docs.. the midwife has just told me its not normal to be tearful everyday... I said even with all my mobility probs and the oh being a Kn0b?! hmmm I'm trying to think about it too much :o am i depressed or just a bit upset? I have no idea anymore!!!! :o:o Midwife is going to ring back on wednesday to see how I am.

    I would ring your GP miss money, your dr won't tell you you are being silly but if you are depressed (and your midwife's right it's not normal to cry everyday) (s)he will be able to help you so that you don't feel so bad.

    hello ladies,

    not been on for a few days so thought i would come check in and see how you all are?

    A little bit of a laugh for the ladies with SPD, I've got SPD too at 17 weeks and I'm really struggling. Went for a health care assessment check at doctors as we are new patients, although i've already seen a gp and midwife there. Well the nurse was asking me how often I go walking, how fast etc, do I do any other activites, which led to her screen saying I led an inactive lifestyle, which at the minute due to pain I do. She then went on to recommend I go jogging and cycling?!?! To which my OH asked her if she was joking and she said no, the exercise will be good, so he said she's 17 weeks pregnant and has SPD some days she can't even pull her own knickers up how do you expect her to ride a bike?! Did make me chuckle. And I can pull my knickers up I just have to be sat down to do so first lol.

    I've won a few more baby bits on ebay etc.

    Stepdad is being an !!!, said he doesn't want to hear about the baby because it's not due till October and it's like talking about christmas.

    hope your all good.

    Good luck for your scan emsbet xxx

  • Oh Ikkle that did make me chuckle!! What did she said to the knicker comment?

    Miss Money there's nothing to loose by ringing your GP. May help to speak to someone neutral who might be able to suggest something or someone that might be able to help.

    Hey everyone,

    Thanks for the wishes re my scan, all was fine. Although she didn't seem certain about the placenta and my notes say poss D/L. Anyone know what that means?

    Baby was squirming away and measuring fine. She showed us some freaky shots of the eye sockets etc and you could see the ribs and spine. Weird! Still hasn't sunk in that the image on the screen is actually inside me though! Can't wait to meet baby in around 20 weeks then it will all seem real!

    Good luck tomorrow Emsbet.

    Did you find out what you're having bellola? Glad it all went well. DL could mean down low?
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.
