Well I have now well and truly stuffed my face!!

Blood results still abnormal so looks like I'll be induced at 37 weeks (which works out to be 2 days after crimbo).

cazscoob hope your back and boobs are bearing up ok.

Shelvis I was in my local chemist today and asked for advice about things to take during pregnancy to help you sleep. The pharmacist said there is nothing that you can take and she advised to stay clear of herbal remedies as they had not been properly tested!!
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, I know the drugs I'm on at the mo to control my itch are makin me so drowsy, it's great the past 3 nights I've drifted off to noddy land in no time at all!! And stayed there all night I don't even wake for the loo!!!

OH MAN NOOOOOO. I bought some radox sleep easy bubble bath as the radox website says all their products are safe to use in pregnancy. I hope that will work.

Hey girls I just dug out some powder I got free in my baby beginnings basket from huggies/tesco and its to help baby sleep. Surely that would be safe for us?? I might give it a go and will come back to pop the results on here!!

Tell me about the not sleeping, have got an un-opened bottle of radox sleep easy, might give that a go, am also fed up with being hot and sweaty, putting the heating on, switching it off after 3 minutes :rolleyes:

Went for my second growth scan this morning, bun has grown since 2 weeks ago but still not as much as they'd like, was told that the fluid around him was fine and everything else seems ok, still ahve to be scanned twice a week for the next 2 weeks and have a growth scan again on 21st.
Got myself all worked up and nervous last night as we were told that i would be delivering at 37 weeks, but as he's put some weight on they would rather leave him to grow some more over the next 2 weeks, was told though that they would'nt be letting me go over my due date which means he will definatley be a December baby.
Oh, and i have been told to take it easy and not run around after everyone, yeah, that's going to be easier said than done but will try

Discovered this morning that my son has chickenpox, checked nhs direct and apparently because i have had them i am OK whilst pregnant - no harm to baby. Just know now that i have got to keep him off nursery for a week!!

Hope everyone is doing OK.

I am fedup

I feel guilty for wanting the baba to come out when he/she is obv not ready to make an appearence. 3 days left to my due date. Argh, I'm going mad!

3 Kids I was exposed to chicken pox early on in my pg as I was volunteering in a school! It wasn't a concern.

Started on my rasperry leaf tea today and will start my arnica ready for the 19th. I'm going in under the mindset that the 19th Dec is my due date but they'll let me go very overdue (my true dd is actually the 21st Jan but doubtful I'll get that far). Have anti-natal tomorrow which will be fun.

I went up to bed at 10:30 was shattered. I had a relaxing bath in sleepy radox first. Did NOWT and I got up about 10 mins ago cos I am just lying there getting stressed. I guess this is it now for me for the next few weeks. I can't understand why my body is punishing me. Surely it knows I need to use these next few weeks to rest before the big event. Grrrr.

Just checking in. Went up at 2ish slept till about 5am. Am up now. Might have anothercouple of hours later perhaps. Looks like I am just going to have to get used to it.

You have my sympathy as I've slept badly all the way through this pregnancy. I think I've just got used to it now. Mind you, I'm a bit odd and like being up when no-one else is (I did a load of baby clothes ironing at 4am last Saturday!)

Sending good sleep vibes to you all, I am begining ti find sleep a problem, grrr.

I am so excited about our 4d scan on tuesday!!! Has anyone got any suggestions so that I can make sure we get the best pics? We were told I should eat some choccy and have a fizzy pop before we get therel, now I don't think I will find that difficult!!!
