  • Hey all, how's everyone doing? welcome sunshine :) Gracie is such a cute name, sounds like you've had a rough time. I had pre-eclampsia at 35 weeks and found that traumatic so i can't imagine how it must have been for you and your wife.
    Kayalana-aw bless that's just typical, hope you've cheered up and got to witness some more steps?
    H had his 2nd lot of jabs this week-2wks late! he is 14wks. He was such a brave little soldier, stopped crying almost as soon as OH passed him to me. He was kinda whingey in the evening for a bit then slept a lot! That was tues,then lastnight he also slept well! a 4hr 20 chunk then......a 5 hr 10 chunk! omg, i couldn't believe it!Felt really disorientated when i woke up! I'd love it if this was to stay but I shan't get my hopes up.

    Quick question, since having H I have suffered with painful feet, like they seize up after being still a while, then are really painful for about a minute to walk on, it's so bad after being a bed a while. Now the past couple of weeks I have started to get more aches and pains all over. My knees now hurt, along with my back and sometimes hands/fingers. If i keep moving it's ok but after being still the pain starts. Has anyone else experienced this after pregnancy? Mam says it could be lack of sleep. I am only a little thing so maybe the strain of carrying the baby? I dunno, I have convinced myself i have athritis :(

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Sounds like there's a bit of a tight squeeze all round bedroom wise, hope you find a buyer soon.x
    Sorry can't help with the feet prob Dippy, I do find some days I'm really stiff from carrying T though. Good news on the sleep.x
    Woke up with a startle, T shouting in crib as he'd got his foot stuck between the bars. He's done it before when he was sleeping without his grobag in hot weather, now he's doing it in his grobag too. Does anyone else's LO do this? How did you fix it? He's only 16 weeks so don't really want to put him in his cot bed in his own room yet and the bars are the same distance apart anyway, it's just the bed is wider so he can spin round without poking his feet through.

    Hey lazy, uch back to normal sleep pattern-if not worse- tonight :(
    When we moved H from his Moses to a rocking crib he was always sticking his arms and legs out, it really scared me!! So I got a cot set of mesh bumpers. One is a good size for the sides and top of the crib then there's another left to add when we get a cot. I got mine off eBay but Argos sell Airwrap ones. So the limb dangling has stopped but he does back-shuffle his way to the top still and then cries once he can't go any further!

    Morning all

    Hope everyone had a good night? Aiden was crying in the night with these big teeth :( he is just lying on the floor playing with his cars at the mo so am just leaving him whilst he is content.

    My day off today so think we will pop out later as he always naps in the car and thats what he needs at the mo.

    Have a good day all xxx

    I had that for a few months after my last pregnancy but I think mine was just because after eight months in bed, my body wasn't used to the level of activity of normal everyday life. I would suggest that if it's not improving you should see your GP.

    Just been on a spending spree in Boots, taking advantage of their 3 for 2 on all baby stuff. Bought a cardigan, slippers, gloves and hat for winter, a pile of snacks and a couple of bath toys which will be xmas presents for her :D
