morocha

Hi ya,

Went to see my Mw today, and we heart baby's heartbeat and done the triple screening blood test. Should hear from that in 3 weeks.
She does not seem concern that i haven't put any weight on, she says i can carry like this till the 20 weeks+, it is not a big deal.
Iam a size 10 and everything still fits i do not get the pregnancy treatment just yet lol....
With DD i ended up huge so i know i have to be healthier and try to be fitter this time around, I am only 5ft 3.
Anywway my next app is in 10 weeks !! i will be 27 wks when i see her again, its makes me so lonely tho.

Morocha, 17+5

I'm not a gym person at all - I was going to pole dancing classes 2x a week until just before my 12 week scan though, and I'm still cycling as my primary mode of transport (not long distances though, and I have no hills in my surrounds). I started antenatal yoga but it's closed for the summer (starts again next week).

exercise? what is that? hehe

i was such a gym freak before - did classes, and even kung fu with DH. Now iam the total opposite. As i was banned by the GP not to exwercise like i did due to my miscarriage in Jan, so had given up everything and now just dont have the energy to do anything. keep saying i will find a pool near me and join a gym but too lazy. i even bought pilates and yoga for pregnancy dvds and not used them. what has happend to me?

Elisabeth Hi and welcome. We're about the same due date! I don't officially exercise but I do have a rather physical job. Realised some of my limitations yesterday - was wearing an old white t shirt whilst greasing a tractor (messy job, my hands become like mechanics hands) when I had to run across the yard for something. Used my hands to give my bra some extra help and....you guessed it....had big black hand marks on my white t-shirted boobs all day!

Morocha I love the way you sign your posts as your name plus weeks gone. It makes me think of a lonely hearts column or something! Very jealous of you still fitting in to your clothes. My mum very kindly said to me yesterday "I reckon you've put on about at stone (she's right) and it's all gone on your legs hasn't it". Oh, how lovely mum. But I don't care cos my maternity jeans arrived yesterday and oh the revalation in comfort - they are GREAT!

Thanks for the tip on bravissimo bras Rups, I am planning to go there for my bras. Was just wishful thinking that they might start doing maternity/nursing clothes alongside the regular Pepperberry range! I have emailed them to suggest it though! If I was as crafty as some of the ladies on the FB group I'd have a go at modifying one of my pj tops for nursing, but they're expensive and I don't want to ruin it!

Aimless - thanks for the tip on Royce bras, will check them out once I've been fitted. Do come back and share which brand it was that you liked please!

Exercise: I've been doing pilates weekly, as I did that before, but I have my last class tonight as it's getting to the point where I can't do about 50% of the exercises so my instructor is constantly having to do 2 sets of instructions. I'm intending to swim 2-3 times a week to keep everything moving in my back as I had a problem last year and I don't want it to recurr. Not made it once yet though, despite buying a maternity cossie a month ago

Had a great time at aquanatal - can really feel it in my tummy muscles now. The chat and coffee session afterwards was nice too, although we had to pay extra for the coffee, so I ended up spending £8 on today in the end including the class. There were only 3 of us in the class for the first half and then my friend joined us for the last part, so it was almost like personal training too. As the teacher is a midwife, she knew exactly what moves to use to work the pelvic floor etc, and also made us hold our arms up for 1 minute after exercising so that we could focus on getting through 1 minute of pain by breathing (like a contraction). I'm definitely going next week if baby doesn't have any other ideas.

Ikkle that doesn't sound very good - did you knock the swollen area on something or has it just happened spontaneously? can you get a MW to take a look while you see the anesthetist? I once had an awful reaction to an insect bite on my shin, swelled up to the size of an egg and then I knocked it on something and the skin burst due to the swelling It oozed for ages and I got a nasty scar.

The kitten scratched my leg and where it scratched me this morning instead of blood its leaking water. It's still leaking now. There wasn't anyone available to talk to at the hospital - 2 babies were born while we were there and my midwife is on holiday.

sorry Elizabeth, pregnancy mash brain welcome and congrats. xxx

You are right about morocha, zcrat. i stopped counting the days so maybe we can all start doing that (if you dont mind morocha ) so we can know who is at what stage? xx

ikkle87

I don't do any exercise I walk as much as I can, even when it's hard. Steps are a major thing lol. Maisonette means I have lots to go up and down x
