arrrgggghhh seriously can not get comfy, everything aches even sitting on my ball is making my back hurt. I've just gone downstairs to put a wash load on and i am so out of breath!

Am trying to write my assigment and have lost all of the work i did last night, due to being so tired I hadn't saved it. have done 400 words so far but im just so uncomfortable! god this late stage of pregnancy is hard. Anyone else feel like there just isnt room in their stomach anymore, baby is so far under my ribs its unbearable, but at the same time im getting so much pressure and little punches down below where shes so far down too, I think I'm having a really long baby!

Oh MV, hope the pain and constipation ease very soon.

Missymoo, I'm sure you could have cried at wiping last nights work (I probably would have cried!) here's hoping the rest of the assignment goes very smoothly.

Those maxi's look fab Lovecake! Your bump is fantastic as well. I was thinking about a couple of maxis but just not sure - I'm short and normally a size 16 but I need at least an 18 in dresses for my boobs so not sure how easy it would be to find one to suit me. I got myself a pair of black skinny maternity jeans and blue maternity jeans and find myself favouring the blue jeans but was at hairdressers today, got home and discovered a blob of red hair dye has been dropped on them - not impressed at all.

I was at ante natal clinic today, have another physio referral, this time for the sciatica (was referred at start of pregnancy but was referred to local hospital where the physios aren't maternity so they didn't really have a clue what to do with me, I was basically told I'd know better how to treat it as I'd had SPD with my last pregnancy!) Baby is measuring big for my dates so I have to go back in a fortnight to keep an eye on him.

I had my "training scan" today - I think I now know enough to be a sonographer! One student "had a go" at pointing out bits of the baby - which took 40 minutes! THEN...another one had a "go" taking 30 minutes! By the end of it, I felt so sorry for the baby being prodded for over an hour (this is after the mw appointment this morning!) and I couldn't get up from lying on my back for so long!

A scan at 36 weeks is actually rather rubbish - baby is so big I couldn't see much and its curled up as theres not much room left - so couldn't see the facenor anything other than spotting the kidneys/bladder/stomach 50 odd times with the students!!!!

I was happy to get out of there......but I had that feel-good factor knowing that the students training probably got something out of it!!!! All I got was a sore bump, an achey back and that clear gel stuff all over my clothes!!!!

Sorry to hear that you are still in pain MV Hope you feel better soon - but its good sign that the baby is wriggly away.

Lovecake - what stunning pics! Wish I had some like that to remember bump by!

Morning,

MV how you feeling?

Clarets how are you? Any exciting news?!

Morning missy.

Feeling marginally better than yesterday, but still sore and still have pain in my right side.

I am seeing the midwife at 10.30 this morning so will see what she says and also will hopefully get to hear the h.beat again just to put my mind at rest.

Not sure if I am going to go into work afterwards. It's an hour+ drive, and I am finding driving extremely uncomfortable at the moment. I don't think my boss is too pleased with me as she has the overspill of my work and as I'm only there part time, any days I am off really matter, but what can I do?

Hope everyone else is feeling better than me this morning, and waiting for news for Clarets!

MV don't worry about work, they'll just have to get on with it. You're more important. I do hope it settles down soon.

So tired this morning, Roo came running through at 5.15 with his little cold feet and got into bed and put them on my bump! Getting a few niggly pains and Have a lot of pressure in my bum, but woke up with an upset stomach so it's probably that. Can't wait for roo to have a nap so I can too!

How far gone are you missy and how old is your LO?

I have a 2 year old and he is a real handful. He fell out of his cot for the first time this morning He was in his sleeping bag and we heard a crash and then yelling..poor little fella.

I guess it's getting nearer the time we are going to have to take his cot bars down and make it a bed.

MV I'm 38+6 today, so just waiting for something to happen, although would be far easier if OH was home!

LO is 18 months old, he's already in a bed in his new room as the new baby is going in the nursery. It's the best thing we've done as he's so much happier in there, and I couldn't reach to put him in his cot anymore with my huge bump in the way! He's full of it all the time, but generally really good, just always full of energy! Can't believe I've been up 4 hours already!

Dippy, they're full length on me and I'm only 5'0, I think my bump is bringing them up to a normal length - excuse the mess and the stupid face lol;

MV I hope you get some answers from the midwife this morning.

Got home last night to no hot water, lovely! Called British Gas and the earliest they can send someone is this afternoon, how's that for urgent?!
