How far are you again claree?

Bump is feeling painful again..bah..off to see the mw now so fingers x'd she may be able to offer me some advice.

Hope you have a good day ladies xx

25+1, I'm following on a couple of days behind you
I'm pretty sure I was a good bit bigger than you to begin with though so we'll just go with it :rotfl:

Fingers crossed your MW has some answers or some pain relief!

Oh dear I'm in real pain again

Had to come home from work early and was hoping I may be able to sleep it off, but it's too painful.

Phoned the Dr, and waiting a call back, really really don't want to have to go into hospital again

Has anyone here had real killer indigestion/bloating/pain in the stomach at around 26 weeks of pregnancy?

I just hope baby is ok

Yes, me. I'm about a week ahead of you and last week was just terrible. I couldn't sleep at all for a few days and kept getting stuck when sat or laid down - had to keep waking DH up in the night to turn me over. On the day it stopped hurting my bump went the weirdest shape - all over to one side. Never seen anything like it! Anyway, it's all settled down again now and hopefully yours will too

Loving all the bump pictures! Might post one later if I'm feeling brave! There is 60% off sale on new look, some maternity bits, might help someone!

Good bumpage, ladies

I hope things settle down for you soon MV. I've had pains for an hour or so when things back up, but having it for days must be awful for you. Bananas are apparently good to help get things moving as they're high in fibre.

DS has had the side off his cot since Christmas, and is in a proper bed now. We have a gate at the top of the stairs and one on his room - but that one is there to keep him in there when we first put him to bed. We open it when we go up to bed and then he comes into us when he wakes up. We have a Gro-clock to let him know when it's time to get up (which works most of the time) and he loves to come in and tell us that the sun is waking up now

Well I saw the MW and all is fine with the baby so that is the main thing Uterus is the right size, good heartbeat and a VERY active little lady in there

Im still feeling crap though. She told me not to go into work and to have a warm bath and go to bed. Tried calling my boss but no joy, then got a text from her saying she was in training and couldn't speak to me, so I just sent her an email. No reply yet, but sod it..I'm just going to follow the advice of the MW.

Also found out from MW that I do in fact need a letter from a GP to fly next week as I am off to Hungary on Monday for a work trip for 2 days. Had to shell out £16.50 (!!), and hope that it comes back in time as I can't get travel insurance otherwise

Auugh..just want to be left alone!

Ah ace pics ladies, Clare i think the boohoo ones will be too long for me! I am a little bit shorter than you BUt will check out Primarni in Liverpool on monday.
Glad all's ok with the baby MV, hope you have a good rest today.
I am off work this week on leave:) which is nice but I do have the thought of being called in for a FURTHER resit of the exam I keep failing hanging over me! I seriously now feel like telling them to take my promotion away from me, I will revert back to what I was but really it's only £100 a month in my pay. I just feel like if I do it again, i will be so nervous and fail again!!

Just to risk saying the obvious... you have taken some paracetemol for it haven't you? Getting really warm and lying still seemed to help me too. Hope it eases up for you soon

I have my exam on Friday and my lecturer is flaming useless. He's given us one example to practice which he's "pretty sure" is the same as the exam. What if it's not!?

Metranil_Vavin

Thanks Courgette, I actually hadn't taken any paracetamol but I will do

Had to log onto work email and do a few bits, but am logging off now and WILL be having a lie down.

Have you got a small hot water bottle with a cover? I'm a bit wary about posting this on here because I know there is some discrepancy with info regarding them but my MW told me to use one as long as it's not huge and it's not directly onto the skin. She suggested buying a new one if mine was particualarly old in case it burst.

It was an absolute life saver for me.
