morning ladies. hope you are all well. ladym, you will be fine sweety. my arm is sore and i just feel a bit weird in terms of tiredness (but thats my usual thing anyway) and my throat has a weird taste.:( otherwise its ok. xxxx

queenB and aida, i ended up ordering the red one as red is my fav colour so my cousin said she will order it today and i can pay her. we only got the buggy and the car seat as we have a moses basket and didnt think we needed the carry cot. also havent got the base as i am sure the way the seat is, we can managed with the seat belt. am excited though.

goiing to be alone tonight as dh is going to see his friend so no doubt i will be disturbed when he gets back. sigh.

still working at home today as seeing mw at 230 today. have a list of questions for her lol.

had a weird dream that i went into labour and i had to lie down on a table somewhere with midwives atound me and i was scared. i sent dh to get my bags and he left his phone with me and i couldnt get hold of him to say we had moved hospitals. eek. i wass panicking. i actually thought in my sleep that i ws going into labour. in my dream they kept telling me that my daughter will be fine and is a nice big baby. aghhhh...lol

Thanks Rups,

Im am working until quite late think il be 36 and a half weeks by then...thats the plan anyway...33 working days left!

I dont know, il see how i go. Things will be SO tight afterwards so i want to try and earn as much as i can to ensure i can have the full year off when bubs is here...

Plus work are so good hopefully i can just keep increasing my work from home days, if i do two days a week from home im hoping the other three wont be so bad...

Its bad im praying for snow...another reason il be able to work from home!!!!

Rups32

no snow please? lol. i am scared (as much as i love snow) that we wont be able to get to the hospital when bubs is due. lol. i like working from home now but keep getting pressure to be in because am training my cover and its going so so slow.. i just want to leave. i was supposed to on the 30th but moved it to 23rd. so when i leave i will be 35.5 weeks.

I was OK with mine aside from really tired after so don't expect to do anything for the rest of the day!

I'm really tired anyway.:p I have to try and manage my energy levels with the M.E. If I have an appointment, I can't do anything for the rest of the day as it drains me.

Quick fly by post, as I need to get ready to go and see the physio (fingers crossed she's actually nice this time!)

However, just wanted to say to LadyM that I also have M.E. and tend to react to jabs, but I wasn't too bad with the 'flu jab. The arm was sore for the day and overnight, I got a slight headache for a couple of hours (so I rested for a bit and took some painkillers and it went) and had a slight sore throat for a couple of days (and it was very slight, similar to what I get if I've overdone things a little). No feverishness, which is always the thing I find most draining. Hope they go well for you.:)

Sorry you have M.E too but thank you for telling my your experience. My arms are very sore and I feel slightly feverish but I haven't felt that well for the past couple of days anyway (on top of the M.E that is!).

Hey everyone. I'm just copying and pasting this from the FB group as I know some of you don't venture on there.

Had my flu and whooping cough jabs today. Don't know what I was worried about! Arms are very sore though and feel a bit feverish. Had my liver blood results back and one of the enzymes is too high so need to have another blood test on Monday to check them again. GP said that if it keeps elevating then I could have Obstetric Cholestasis. Also need to have a FBC done again as, even though I'm taking the iron, my iron levels have dropped again. They were 9.7 and are now 8.5-ish Haven't had my swab results back yet. x

good luck with the results lady m. will they give you some iron tabs then? glad your jabs went well. you had both today? brave you!!

The GP prescribed me some more iron today as I had a GP appointment after my jabs. She's increased the dosage to three times a day instead of two.

Yep, had both jabs today. One after the another. One in each arm! They were both so quick though. Now if only blood tests were like that!

Hate all this blood test and swabs pallava. they just make me feel more nervous and then waiting around for results. keep sending my wee off as well and then not hearing anything (which is good). i have to do another one today for the midwife. lol.

It started snowing when I was in hospital having DD two winters ago, and snowed off and on for 6 weeks. Gave me a reason to stay in with her and as we live in a very rural area with bad roads, we didn't get too many visitors.

I'm over 35 weeks now and plan to ork for another three and a half weeks if I can manage it. I worked to 39 weeks with DD, but I'm finding this pregnancy tougher.

I have a consultant's appointment tomorrow and will hopefully get a date for my section and a scan. Then decide when to finish work.
