    Thinking of you today PP... good luck :) struggling with eating myself. ..wondering if anyone else is getting super full super quickly? I've been having complan or smoothies instead of food or I feel too bloated and sore. Last night I thought I was going into labour I was in so much pain in my tummy. OH thinks it's because I had a can of pop before bed and the fizz gave me trapped wind but it was kind of different to that. ..the pain was up my side. Anyway feel ok this morning other than being a bit bloated and tender :)

    ooh yes good luck Pigpen. Keep us posted.

    Knowing you, you'll be in and out of there in record time and flyladying your house by the weekend! :D

    Has anyone else with other little one's, noticed their DC's being more tantrumy and difficult that usual? Mine has been what I can only describe as a PITA the last couple of days. Following me from room to room and whinging.

    He also cries for his dummy all the time, something we only let him have a sleep times. I know I should really have got rid of it by now, but he sleeps so much better with it.

    I'm also worrying that we haven't even begun on potty training yet, despite all my friends with similar aged children having started and in some cases finished the process! I was told not to bother until baby has been here a few months, but I thought at least I could begin getting him interested in the potty..but nope. He isn't the slightest bit interested.

    Also worrying that he is watching too much tv recently. I struggle to walk anywhere really at the moment, and we have no parks close by. DS's nursery has been shut this week and will be next week too for summer hols, and my childminder is on hols this week too, so I've had him all week. We did get out for a few hours yesterday to meet a friend for a picnic, but today it's rainging and horrible and I'm so tired :(

    Meh..sorry..outpouring or random worries! At least it's Friday :)

    Just delurking to say good luck for today PP. And to the others who are about to pop.

    Also, don't worry about potty training just yet MV, you'll have enough to keep you busy over the next few weeks! I think my DS1 is a month or so older than yours and he's just not ready yet. We tried on Monday and by lunchtime we'd been through 6 pairs of pants, 5 puddles on the floor and one on the settee :( A couple of accidents happened literally within 30 seconds of him having been sat on the potty. So, even though pretty much all of the other children we know who are the same age are well on their way to ditching nappies, DS obviously isn't ready yet. I'm going to try again in a few weeks, but for now it's just not worth the stress on both of us.

    And he was a PITA just before Olly arrived too, and for a few weeks after. He seems to be getting a bit better now though.

  • Good luck PP :)
    Hope everything is ok Claree and that you dont have to stay in :)

    Ive been suffering really badly with heartburn nothing shifts it :( milk eases it enough so i if i really tire myself out i can pass out asleep before it comes back with so manage to get some sleep. Not sure of the quality due to the 99 times i have to get up to pee. :D
    Baby bean has massive movements enough to take my breath away at times. And is uber wriggly all the time still.

    Sometimes i like to imagine that im living on the breadline as a single mum with 3 children to feed and clothe, bills to pay and very little time to myself........ then i wake up and realise im a princess with prince charming by my side and a lovely white castle........ oh wait :eek:

    Morning BB. Thanks, good to hear it's not just me!

    Did you struggle to entertain your DS in the last few weeks before baby arrived? What sort of stuff did you do?

    I hate the fact that the TV is pretty much on all the time at the moment, but I'm just struggling at the moment. He isn't much interested in painting or playdoh or stuff like that. I'll spend ages getting stuff out, and then he'll be bored within 5 mins!

    Best of luck Clare hope they don't keep you in!

    Sorry haven't been posting much we have been flat out moving house but in and everything is going well, we just have the mammoth task if unpacking

    Am exhausted it has been a whirlwind few weeks, DH is wrecked and couldn't really take anytime off as he is taking a few weeks after the baby comes!!

    No angel sorry you having a tough time if things and baby is back to back, my yoga teacher was recommending asymmetrical poses to help get baby into a better position so lunges but with the caveat that some babies just don't turn. Fingers crossed all your activity gets the baby in a better position

    MV hugs for ds being a handful glad he is no longer poorly

    AFM baby has dropped a lot this week so am feeli g more uncomfortable but otherwise okay, the dr seems to think things are progressing well

    I guess I should go unpack a few more boxes but finding it hard to be motivated lol!!

    Fingers crossed Claree that they don't keep you in x

    Good luck today pp :)

    So far I seem to be lucky and after 17 weeks I've felt great (now 27+6) , getting tired more easily now that's about it. O and being moody with Dh for no reason but I'm pregnant That's reason enough lol :p
