MSE Pregnancy Club 28

I've just stood and cried in the chemist.. hahaha.. I'm such a numpty.. I think people avoiding is best for the remainder of this pregnancy.. The assistant said 'your nails are nice' after we had discussed how truly dreadful I feel, laughed at my feet.. so I just said 'something about me has to' and blubbered.. I really need a slap!

Had my last physio appointment yesterday, she said that my lower back is still really tense and she would expect my ligaments to be a lot looser so late in pregnancy but is putting it down to the crash, so not much I can do really which is a pain because it is pure agony.

I swear I thought I was in labour last night I kept waking up with really bad period pains, they seem to have gone today but my bump feels and looks a lot lower this morning. Due to this 'scare' I have now booked my hairdresser to come next weds (when I will be 38 weeks) to sort out the mess on my head, sort out my eyebrows and tint my eye lashes..I may aswell make a bit if effort whilst I can!

Toots, not long now, hope your little one perks up and starts bouncing around for you. When is your growth scan? I have been up the high end for the past few appointments (90th centile and above) but they have never asked me to go for one. My next midwife appt is next Thursday so will see what she says then.

I have my presentation scan at 9am tomorrow morning. Am interested to know exactly what position this little monkey has got herself into! She's definitely moved since Tuesday, as I am now getting kicked on the right side (it was always left before), but I think she is still breech as I'm pretty sure it's her head I feel her stretching out of my stomach at every opportunity! lol


Toots, I hope little one livens up soon!


Soooo much pressure in my pelvis today. Very uncomfortable!

Growth scan is at 3.40 tomorrow. I'm above the 95th percentile and DH was a big baby!

I'm away back to hospital this afternoon anyway as she still not active. The midwives are so cheery when you phone... Not. Day case up here make you feel like a massive inconvenience! Well stuff them! :mad:

You are making them do some work!! Lol

There are usually no patients on the day unit here and about 6 members of staff and they get all huffity too .. Which is amusing.. Some are really rude too.. Sad really because it must be a lovely job bringing new people into the world they could spread so much love and happiness and they have perma-scowls .. Mind you, having met some of the consultants

Well I'm sat at diabetes clinic with DS3 being kicked the living day lights out of.. I'm getting really strong BHs too which I am trying really hard not to growl about. I'm so tired I don't want pain too!

Toots - I felt like a big inconvenience when I rang up maternity triage at 9.30pm for reduced movements. Thought it would be packed the way they were dithering about bringing me in. Got there, 2 staff and no one else in except me. They were nice once I was in there though!

Ours shuts at 4pm.. you would have been told to come the next day!

I ordered some stuff online.. I can't deal with this much longer without having a meltdown in a public place I'm just so incredibly tired now and I have cabin fever because I can't go out .. I want to go to Dunelm, and I want to go look at carpets for the middle room.. and I want to paint the kitchen.. I'm one of those annoying people who struggles to sit still!


Tata.. I dno't think anyone would want to be near my feet.. they are disgusting.. I look like an anaemic Princess Fiona, or an orc!!!

Snap! I can't sit and do nothing. I'm still dismantling furniture, putting shelves up, up ladders doing the windows and digging about in the garden. The only difference now is I get that knackered I keep having to take breaks, and people keep telling me i shouldn't be lifting or climbing. I'm pregnant, not incapable! Does my head in.

Handed in my papers to work for maternity leave. But as my husband needs quite a big op a few weeks before it starts and I have to stay off with him, I'll be having longer than the year off. I'm either going to go insane wanting to do things, or going to have to write myself a big to-do list for when I'm not looking after him or when she's sleeping when she comes along.
I love to sit and read or crochet or any other crafts, but I get distracted and find myself organising and tidying and just thinking "ohh, I'll go and sort out the ...". It's going to be very strange.
