Pregnancy and Slimming World

Aww hun all those medicines dont sound fun at all. Quite often when your near labour you dont feel like eating or are put off things that you liked before. Keep an eye on baby and phone your hospital if her movements continue to be less than usual. It all sounds like your nearing labour try and rest up hun as much as you can possibly and keep those fluids up x

Will do Hun! It's gone cloudy and cooler here now so that's making things a little easier :) I'm struggling to drink which is not like me! However need to force it down my neck coz this headache isn't shifting :( a few people have said that! Pregnancy is so weird isn't it how it effects you! Before being pregnant I used to think oh stop the moaning when pregnant women at work would moan but I totally get it now! It's no walk in the park although I still think some play on it! Well feet are going back up now my ankles have go e down abit thankfully :) x

Usually the first few weeks and the last few weeks are hardest. I also found that being heavily pregnant in winter is so much more better than being heavily pregnant in the summer, my last 3 are all winter babies and i didnt struggle like this with them. I used to think the same as you until i got pregnant with my first:D but i still hate women that act ill when their not as they treat pregnancy as some sort of illness! Off to midwife now, hopefully she isnt running late as usual x

Yeah I found it easier in the winter than I am doing now so I can understand that will try and time my next pregnancy so most of the latter months are in the winter lol! Hope all goes well at your midwife apt :) I'm due at the hospital at 4.30 but may go up earlier coz I'm really feeling dreadful as the day goes on I'm getting worse! :-( baby's moving loads now so that's reassuring :) anyway good luck catch up later :) x

Goodluck with your appointment x
Baby was good and is 3/5ths engaged and i think thats the lowest she will get until labour for me as its not my first baby. So that explains it to my husband who thought i was going mad when he caught me waddling about yesterday because there is some serious pressure down there and my bump has fallen a lot. She still feels small but thats fine and is in perfect position for labour. Was also told to get a move on with packing my bag too so that will have to be on the top of my to do list and done by the end of next week hopefully x
 
So much exciting labour talk! I'm so excited for you girls, it soon creeps up get ready lol!

Babycake is fine, measuring 10 weeks.

Lol i think i better get a move on, the whole of this weekend and next week will be spent doing that and hopefully by 38 weeks it will all be done and waiting to go to hospital. This weekend i think i will pop into primark and get few cheap pjs and nighties as last time i didnt have probs with my waters but with bleeding so dont want to be in the same position as last time where i also ran out of pj bottoms! x

My waters just kept gushing every time I put new clothes on. Pjs from primark are genius aren't they, love their prices.

Awww brill your well on your way now then! Yes get that bag packed! I totally get the pressure thing down there, mine keeps pushing on nerves which nearly cause me to drop to the floor or sometimes I get ease if I lift my left knee-weird I know! Well my appointment was great sat waiting for 2 hours as usual but my blood pressure has come down loads, baby was bouncing away and has moved back down again thankfully she's in the right position again but I dare say she'll keep popping out! The midwife had a feel and said 'ohhh she's a big girl isn't she' my face dropped I said we'll at the last growth scan she was perfect she just said well don't be surprised if they tell you she's grown quite abit! Eeeeek! So anyway I'm back home again I feel so much better she totally put my mind at rest with regards to the symptoms I'm experiencing with the blood pressure tablets too! So seeing consultant tomorrow to discuss induction with recent events I think everyone just wants this baby out personally if rather keep her in till 38 wks at least but its not upto me I have to take their professional advice! Exciting day tomorrow we have an appointment to register our marriage for next year then off for the scan and consultant apt woop woop!
Oh another item for your bag (headphones) if your going to use the tv whilst in hospital! Our hospital doesn't have that many private rooms so there's 4-8 in a room no privacy all with curtains though :) xx

Lol our babys love doing that, i could have dropped yesterday when she pressed into me twice at the shopping centre, i had to stop and wait for her to stop digging that little head into my bits! Thats why i dont miss being consultant led, its ridiculous how long they make you wait, i would wait over an hour to be just told ok how are things, ok,ok than we'l see you again soon, it would be over in less than 5 mins! Glad to hear your bp has come down and baby is moving about and back down. About the baby weight can you feel her from outside, i can feel babys back so can tell she is a little on the small side but these things are never accurate (even the scans) until baby is out. OOoo how exciting about registering your wedding and getting to see baby tomorrow x

Yeah I can feel her back too she does seem quite big my tummy has changed shape dramatically over these past 3-4 wks of say! Yeah it's annoying I have to go in twice a week and wait for an average of 2hours for pretty much 5-15mins which is so annoying! But I'm glad they are supporting me through everything! Although I do wish all was well and I didn't have to bother :) yeah I can't wait for tomorrow! We are going our for dare night tea and cinema to celebrate as we won't get many date nights to start with once she's here screaming the house down ha! X
