MSE pregnancy club II

Hi ladies, congrats ANM! and to Gem!

Ive got my 2nd antenatal class tonight-discussed labour positions and watched birth videos last week, we'll be talking about pain relief etc tonight apparently.

When i saw my midwife on friday, she discussed the birth plan with me but have been advised to talk to the consultant at the hospital to check what they are planning because of my high bp etc. But she thinks ill be ok to have an active birth, with monitoring when needed.

Im seeing the consultant tomorrow afternoon, for another scan and to talk about a few things. I need to double check that i'll be stopping the low dose aspirin at 36 weeks and all is ok with my bp meds now.

I've been kicked to pieces this weekend, been rather achy and fed up. I felt so tired but when i went to lie down baby kept kicking and prodding me so i couldnt get comfy or sleep! Im already being bossed about by this baby lol! My husband told him/her to give me a rest or he'd give them a tap on the bum! (when baby was fidgeting baby seemed to stick bum out...hehe).

Hope everyone's ok this morning!

If I want to be taken off the list, should I just copy and paste the list, deleting my name, in a similar way to when you want to be added?

Sorry I just never get a chance to post on here really so I'm not much use to you and I want to delete my mse account anyway because some people have upset me and it's just better all round if I stop using forums. Pregnancy hormones, being stuck indoors when you are off sick and rude people who criticise you without knowing you are a BAD combination! I will just have to start watching Jeremy Kyle again!!

Hey-who's been upsetting you? We're all nice in here (pregnancy section). Don't let the few nasty/horible people scare you off the boards-ive had some nasty comments aimed at me several times but i've had support off others to stick with it and ignore the comments.

Please feel free to PM me, if you want to talk or anything. How far gone are you? I know how you feel ie pregnancy hormones!

Big hugs! x x

Ahh thanks! It's ok. I'm just hyper-sensitive at the minute. Even without the hormones though I just don't get why people are so openly horrible to others who they have never met. If they were sitting face to face with me, would they say it? I know it's easy to come across in a way you didn't intend through an email or on a forum and I'm probably as guilty as anyone for not thinking about how what I say will be taken. But really, some people! Calling someone selfish is just plain rude in my opinion, unless they have actually done something to warrant it. Anyway, I'm too upset now to carry on with forums. It isn't worth it.

Congrats and welcome to the thread, sarahriley53!

Hi missk, I'm not sure if any of the current Mum's are having twins but best of luck. Perhaps start a new thread? x

Welcome to the world, Madison! Congrats, anm! x

cazscoob, I'm in the same position as you looking at prams! Poppy will be 14m when my son arrives so I will be reading any replies with interest! x

Galvanizersbaby, I am so sorry xxx. I know what you are going through. Please let us know how it went today. Lots and lots of hugs xxxx

How are you feeling, elle? Did you speak to the MW? My notes have a 24hr number on the front for emergencies x

Wow, gem, thanks for sharing! Hope you are both well x

lwcus, not even sure what mattress we have (bad mum!) as my parents bought it and the cotbed. I'm sure if you google a few types you might get some reviews x

angelfairy, enjoy your lunch and I hope you're ok after your fall! x

Enjoy your class, keely!

jmarko, please stick around! Who has upset you? I hope you will stay and keep us all company!

Hi all

Thanks for the BS Gem.....

The boys start back at school on the 4th Sept and dh starts Uni on the 29th Sept, I was just thinking I might start going swimming as I will have a little bit of spare time. Now I know it is not recommended to start a new excercise or sport whilst pregnant, if you haven't been doing it pre-pregnancy but I was thinking that swimming is quite gentle and good for supporting weight etc. I will be about 18wks when I start it...what do people think.

hi mel,

i am sure i was only reading in one of my leaflets over the weekend that swimming is one of the best exercises for pregnant women becuase of the weighlessness feeling and the no pressure on joints.

happy splashing!!!!!

Hello all

Just popped on to say goodbye and good luck to you all x
Booked in for a ERPC tomorrow morning so thanks to you all for your support and kind words x

cazscoob

my thoughts and love are with you GB take care xxxx

Septemberbaby have you looked at any doubles yet? need to go to a shop and try them out??? oh and also buy bigger car pmsl!

My_Fathers_Daughter

GB - take care sweetie, will be thinking of you.

Elle - thoughts and prayers will be with you tomorrow (I'm sure this baby is turning me religious)

AF - hope you are okay after your tumble - if it is any consolation my constant feeling of sickness has been replaced by less frequent but much stronger waves which I am really struggling to control. Have you tried polo's? Worked for me!


Mel - I have read not to swim until after 12 weeks (I will be SO glad to get 12 weeks over with just because of all the things that I can't do) but we have local aquanatal classes that recommend gentle exercise in the pool after 15 weeks. I am planning to join to meet some of the other mums-to-be.
