Glad to hear baby was ok in the end though KatyLiz - as you say, you'd have felt awful if anything had happened and you hadn't gone in. I don't count the movements Bean makes, I just look out for patterns in when he moves - eg. I noticed that he used to move first thing in the morning and then last thing at night, with the occasional movement mid afternoon (eg if I was driving home from work etc), but most of his movements were at the end of the day (he must have been sleeping during the day). Now he tends to sleep during the day a lot (with the occasional stretch of a foot to let me know he's still there), and is awake most of the night. Some days he was really active all day, and then this would be followed by a quieter day movement-wise the next day. It's like us really, if we have a busy and active day one day, we have less energy the next so don't do as much. Was your little one very active yesterday? This may be why she was less energetic today.

ah moneypenny take it easy...hugs.. hugs to all esp twinklie. dont panic! lol you will see bubba soon. yay!!!

sorry to hear that you were in a bad mood katyliz. glad to know little one is ok though.. today i had a fairly quietish day with a few movements here and there. then i started getting a bit silly when i trying to find the heartbeat and found it but couldnt hear it clearly and then had some quiet spots. so just switched off the doppler and assured myself that bubba is ok.. felt flutters then when we went to the in laws house for dinner and a few pulses after i had some milk! better than nothing hey?

am very tired as been doing stuff and the house is still not clean. and then when we got back dh said the study needs sorting and i just said no and came downstairs as i am exhausted now.. like you said moneypenny, before i used to worry about annoyng him or anyone when saying no but i just said i am not doing anything now. need to chill. then tomorrow he is off for kung fu class and asked what i will do for dinner and i said i dont want to do anything as i am tired. then he said he has to rely on me for stuff and frankly i dont care. if i am tired, i am tired. grrrr
sorry became a rant but i wasnt moaning. just saying am loving saying no now. having some popcorn now.

ah sexymouse. that makes sense with regards to the baby moving. didnt think of that. ohhh we went and checked some cars out that the in laws had looked for us, and finally dh has been convinced to look at 2nd hand ones. woo hoo. we saw such a nice red peugot(however u spell it).

Ladies planning to breast feed- make sure you always have a jug of water beside you as its thirsty work, I also get dh to put fruit on table near sofa so I can eat when breastfeedingg as you just get busy and forget about yourself. You will spend quite a bit of time sitting down so entertainment is needed-iPad,iPhone, kindle or tv.

I second this! Sometimes I forget to eat so this is a nice sit down time for me too so recharge etc. I always have fruit and a big drink of something with the iPad and tv remotes close to hand. Also have a wee before hand, many times we get all comfy and LO is mid feed and I'm dying for a wee.

Although I'm currently munching my way through a (family) packet of Maryland choc chip cookies and they are yummy! however the chocolate crumbs in the bed look suspicious. OH asked me had I changed LO in the bed and did he poo? Oops

Katyliz glad bubs is ok, like you said better to be checked out. Sure the hospital would rather see you too.
Sexy mouse hope you managed to sleep tonight
Twinklie happy due date

Aww crap I'm a bolide. Happy due date to me. I've celebrated so far with next to no sleep because baby is in a very uncomfy position. Doh! Midwife at 2.45 today. And my bed is coming so no more sleeping on the floor, woo hoo.
Moses basket is all made up now which I'm pleased about. Looks very cute.

MissMonkeyMoo

Morning Ladies.

Twinklie happy due date! Hope you have a lovely day and don't go overdoing it!

Sexymouse/Mishka I've been having period type pains on-and-off for over a week now; also been having a tightening across the stomach (always with pain) but they come at random times and sometimes I'll have a couple in a day and then nothing the next day. Bit frustrating really - wouldn't mind if I knew that this was the start and that baby was on their way but you can get these types of pains for several weeks before baby makes an appearance!

Rups I really feel for you; I know your OH is probably lovely but you do seem to have your work cut out for you sometimes! I wrote on here recently that my OH had some issues (all of his own doing!) but he ended up taking them out on me - ordinarily I would have handled things very differently, but because I was so heavily pregnant, tired and hormonal I retreated inside myself and just got misreable and upset. We've sorted things out now, but it was a horrible time and I felt like I was treading on eggshells. It's really not an easy time and if your OH is being unreasonable or unsupportive in any way try and tackle it now rather than letting it go. Sorry, no lecture intended, just wouldn't want you to go down the same route that I did! You need love, support and understanding and your OH has to be the one that gives you this undconditionally more than anyone else!

I can't remember who was asking about mising their bump (sorry!) but the answer for me is no. I don't think that I will miss it at all; I was telling someone the other day that I haven't felt like myself at all this year because I haven't been able to do the things that I normally would or wear the clothes that I want to. I know that might sound shallow, but how I dress is a reflection of me and the maternity clothes that I have had to wear are not what I would normally choose if it wasn't for bump. I just feel like my identity has disappeared and that has been really hard for me.

Ended up in hospital on Saturday morning; baby hadn't moved much and though I wasn't overly worried the triage line that we called said to come in for monitoring. Long story short is that baby is ok and the care we got was great cos they said that if I wanted to I could go back the next day for more monitoring to put mymind at rest. As it was LO had a very active day yesterday so no worries there!

Due date is Wednesday - cannot believe it is here! In some ways my pregnancy has flown by and in other ways it has seemed really long - how strange! Got midwife appt tomorrow - can't believe I'll actually need it, I was convinced that baby was going to be about a week early but looks like they are very comfy in there. I hope it's not too much longer - I have no interest in doing anything anymore, cos it's too much of an effort to get dressed properly to go out and see people, so I am starting to become a bit of a recluse! OH keeps telling baby to hurry up as well - but so far, baby's ignoring us!

sexymouse

Well the builders/plasterers are here to do our bedroom ceiling. We "slept" in the spare room last night, although I didn't really sleep at all. I'd forgotten how uncomfortable our old mattress was (the reason we replaced it was that you can feel all the springs), and Moon obviously wasn't sleeping well either as he kept tossing and turning too, which made me stay awake. Coupled with the cat knocking on the front door twice during the night too (tried to ignore him but he carried on, and it was raining so I got up and let him in), I think I'm running on adrenalin today. At one point in desperation I went back to our bed that had been pushed up against the wall, so I probably managed an hour or so. Didn't get any period pains last night, but think that was cos I wasn't lying still long enough to get them! Bean was definitely awake too, cos he was rolling and kicking all over the place. Moon said that Bean was taking advantage of the fact that at his age, he doesn't get to stay up very late! lol

Happy due date to twinklie.

Hugs for all who need or want them, and labour vibes where appropriate.

Hi Ladies!

Just be reading back over the weekends posts…

I will not miss my bump lol… it drives me nuts because it gets in the way and if I lean against something the baby kicks like mad to push it away so I end up feeling sick (and in pain!) I also hate being pregnant… I don’t know how some of you like it? But then I am sick every day and suffering with spd so its getting boring for me now because of that…

My OH shops like that too sexymouse… it drives me nuts!

Thanks for the tip about water Jedi… I hadn’t really thought about that but it does make sense!


35 working days to go… 68 days til due date!
