Good grief, i can't keep up with all the news on here. Welcome to the influx of newbies! rebekah glad things were better for you this time around, only a few more days and you'll have your LO! Yay! x

Sexymouse really hope you feel better soon, maybe worth getting checked out? Sounds like you are suffering lots so big hugs.

Silly Moo sending you labour vibes!

I am sure there were loads of other comments I wanted to respond to as well, but have just read five pages worth so can't remember now!

My little lamb bamboo nappies turned up yesterday - they are so soft and really cute! OH thought so too - he is a softy at times! Wanted to post a picture of my bump on here but I have no idea how to do it - can someone help please?

Hope everyone is having a lovely day! x

That's great Rebekah, how exciting to know that'll you be holding your baby on Monday

silly moo - hope baby arrives soon for you!

sexymouse - hope you feel better soon.

ikkle - I know how you feel, it is a relief to know that baby is growing well so far and has reached a reasonable weight. I had my scan this morning and baby is 2.5lb at 27+6, which is a bit smaller than average, but as my daughter was small they are quite happy with that. I've got my next scan booked for the 9th August, so hopefully she'll still be growing well then. We're not allowed pictures from the growth scans at the hospital I go to, but the sonographer snuck us a couple to make up for the terrible pics we got at the last scan, which was a nice bonus

I think its time for me to stop being a lurker and get added to the list if I may. I am expecting baby number 5 and have been booked in for my 4th section on 31st August. I am starting to get quite tired now trying to look after my other 4 while being 7 months pregnant and am looking for advice on how to boost my energy levels to get me through the summer months while the kids are all of school!

Hi all!

Rebekah I can imagine your face when they said today! I think I got confused, did little lady turn today or she's still breech? Glad you've got a few days to get any last minute bits sorted and enjoy your last few days of it just being the two of you. So excited for you. Although pressure is now on the boldies to pop out the babies before you overtake

SM sorry you're still not too well. If your temp goes up do speak to your midwife.
Rups glad your GP was able to reassure you. Remember your notepad for tomorrows appt with the midwife.
Sillymoo sending big labour vibes and hopefully LO will appear soon.

OK please can someone give me a slap or something? OH thought watching OBEM last night would be a good idea. Well I don't know what happened after that, I'm not so worried about the giving birth. That bit is inevitable I guess at this stage. I'm more worried about looking after baby, and that is daft too cos I know what to do as I've looked after many nieces and nephews sometimes up to a week while their mums are away. Unlike OH who is an only child and barely held a newborn born. I'm not saying I know it all, but the basics I know. So this is midnight I'm having some kind of meltdown and OH dozes off so I don't know, I need a slap and for someone to tell me to stop being daft.

I'm 31 weeks today :j so am excited, but it's getting close and I'm feeling very unorganised. Purely as the nursery needs doing still

Think I'll have another cuppa and get off my bum and do something of some use.

Hugs to all that need them xxx

awhh missmoneysaver thanks will do with a list of questions.

that program scares me too. i am sure you will be fine. like you said you have looked after nieces/nephews and if yo udont know something, we get to learn it anyway dont we? hugs

snowyz81

I'm the same, even though i've been through it before i worry that i'm going to remember everything and how the hell i'm going to manage with two. I'm struggling with DD at the min.

Ah I'm glad your scan went well too hun, she's only a little bit tinier than average and like you say it's the normal for you. Are you having fortnightly growth scans now?

I'm not sure if he was supposed to give me them or not but I'm glad he did. The 2nd lot are better than the first but it's hard to get a good pic cos bubs is a fidget, I'm starting to wonder if he's going to have ADHD like his dad and be constantly on the go lol.

So the cardiologist gave me the all clear to start driving again and return to work on Monday! Boo. Still it's only a week and then it's the summer holidays anyway. Yey! :j

Sick note runs out today and I have a maternity appointment at the hospital tomorrow, so if they agree I'm in work for the last week. Will be nice to say goodbye to everyone properly and collect my things without making a special trip. Not looking forward to actually working or dealing with the kids comments though.
