Oh SIL and BIL are lovely- they've realised they cannot get the aged and rickety moses basket to us so have ordered a new one and rocking stand to be delivered. Lucky lucky bean. Totally overwhelmed

Rowing event meeting went on longer than I thought but it was useful and I'm conscious I need to do what I can now.

Bean's had hiccups today, and lots of foot squirming and just now, something right at bottom of bump, a few little wiggles from hands I guess

We're all still hanging on in there then?
Ive had 3 sweeps in the past week which have come to nothing more than quite intense contractions that fizzle out after a few hours and lots of light bleeding. Im booked in for induction a week today, but Im having another sweep on Thursday as a last ditch attempt. It would be nice to go into labour naturally but Ive been induced before so I know roughly what to expect and at least I can make arrangements for my daughters care whilst I'm in hospital.
Sending lucky labour vibes to you all!

So, SIL and I kept talking about babies stuff last night after the message re the moses basket- the stand actually arrived today as well. Plenty of muttering about growth scans from both of us and good to chat with her as she did some of her junior doctoring in Obstetrics as well as the two nephews.

Then today, it really does feel as if bean has moved right down. Some pressing low down and all the feet type movements are now belly button level. So that's hopefully a good sign.

Oh and I have just been through the contents of the hospital bags, taken a few bits out as I'd overdone them, short list of things to add in, including finding plenty of change for parking. But really it was as much about making sure he knows what's in them. So just the real discussion of 'preferences' to note down and we're as ready as we can ever be. Which, if we end up discussing induction on weds, will be good timing.

Hello ladies, (gatecrashing from the less than 12 weeks thread as I seem to be the only one there at the moment)
Can anyone recommend some over the bump briefs that offer light support without digging in anywhere please? This is my third pregnancy and my belly feels much bigger than it should for this point.

They don't go over bump these were (and still are :rotfl:) super comfy!

Hope everyone is well and April has delivered!

I ended up with another client this morning :A I find it really difficult to say no when I work from home!

Afterwards, we were in the garden. It's quite windy today but boiling hot! I was helping OH build a new gate as the old one was ruined - we justhaven't had a chance to get to it since we moved. It's looks great. Howe, what I really wanted was a planter as my poor toms have really outgrown their existing home. Saying that, they're still flowering and fruiting well, along with the cucumbers.

I showed my DD how to root the strawberry runners so we could make more new plants, so this is her new responsibility.

SIL texted me today to ask me how I'm feeling and to ask me to hurry up and have him. I said I've been trying everything and he will not be moved! :rotfl:

Just been tickling a tiny little foot in my side. He wasn't long in moving it

Hmmmm, so weird things are starting to happen over here. Pressure in my pelvic area which is only mildly released upon a loo trip and mild-moderate period pains. Plus super active baby. Didn't manage to sleep much last night as was quite uncomfortable. I'm trying to carry on as normal (albeit gently) as I think it's probably way too early to be getting excited and not entirely sure whether it's a false alarm or not. Will probably start getting excited when it's regularly painful rather than mildly uncomfortable with the occasional sharp pain.

Currently in the car on the way to lunch at PILs (50 min drive from home; 40 min from hospital).

Best wishes to april87! Hoping baby has arrived safely.

Well I'm so thoroughly !!!!ed off tonight. He is simultaneously kicking my ribs to shreds and also lying on my nerve - I almost toppled down the stairs the first time he did it tonight :eek:

So I am wishing you good luck snow! I hope this is it for you x

Despite my bean seeming to have moved down I've had HORRENDOUS heartburn all weekend


And in a foul mood that I can't shift too
