I'm here to moan again *waves*

Start weight: 14s 7lb Current weight: 13s 10lb loss: 11lb

Sorry you are still feeling rough, hope you start to feel better soon. Hugs Crystal xx
 
A very well done for swimming, I never had the guts to go with a baby bump lol plus I didn't want to spend money on a maternity costume lol

I bought a cheap swimming costume - Asda £6, in a size 20 to accommodate bump and boobs. Bish Bash Bosh.

Only problem is I can't see my bikini line to trim it so I look like a yeti. Spiders legs EVERYWHERE!

Man I really know how to kill a thread eh?
 
Lexi - nearly wee'd - spiders legs - just reminded me to do some personal gardening lol wonder if my oh will attempt it when i get huge? Good advice re swimming cozzy , need one for my hols in June and Sept ( if safe for me to fly) and need to get into swimming again, i live round the corner from local pool so no excuse!!!!

Cheeky 22 days left lucky you, i already feel like i've been pg for ever at wk 12 god knows how you must be feeling!

Am trying to drink loads of water but its making my mouth feel dry like i've not drank? Anyone else the same?

Off to Harverster for tea later nom nom.........that salad bar better be full this time, was sod all the last time grrr!

Hope everyone is well as can be xx
 
Have creatively angled a mirror to see, so it's at least semi presentable now.
 
Haha Lexie your threads made me giggle!
Been nosing at prams again today... quite fancy the Mothercare My4 - had a go at changing it from newborn to older mode, plus folding it down, seems really good.

We really wanted the iCandy peach but it's £800!! So we've succumbed to the fact that maybe it's not such a great idea when we can probably get the pram and all the furniture for that price if we go for a cheaper one!

My swollen feet/ankles are really annoying me now - they are just aching so much all the time. I've taken to living in my Skechers Shape-Up flip flops as they're the only thing that's comfy and easy to slip off under my desk in work too!
 
I'm now starting to feel really really uncomfortable. My whole stomach feels really tight and stretched, so when baby moves its painful. I'm sure this baby has had a growth spurt, Im feeling really heavy. I guess baby has dropped but now just want baby to arrive.

Lexie I know where you are coming from on the whole de- hairing haha I'm trying to stat tidy for labour lol

Sarah, hope you feel better soon with your ankles
 
Ugh. Baby stress. Baby usually kicks me awake in morning. Not this morning. So got up had cup of tea and toast with honey butter and got a wee flurry.

Now through the day been getting "lazy" slow movements rather than the big wallops I'm used to. Baby's heart still hammering away on the doppler but these movements are much much more subtle, in a blink and you'll miss them kind of way.

Bit worrying and not sure if phoning the mat unit makes me look like a diddy. Again. Because wee beggar did this after 20 weeks and was facing my spine, plus my mat unit was in the news yesterday so it might look a bit like panic.

Probably is a bit of panic because baby moving just not as much as normal. Knee jerk?

Hi Lexie, it could well be as you say baby has changed position to your back

Have you tried drinking ice cold water or have something sweet like Orange juice or fizzy? Alternatively you have you tried laying on your side?

Usually the above can get baby moving.

Also have you felt baby at least 10 times?

Baby could well be having a lazy day and you might find baby is really active tomorrow.

If you are concerned give your mat ward a call, they are there to deal with any concerns we have x
 
Just chugged a 500 ml of Irn Bru (horrible) in hopes it sparks a wee engine. Getting stronger flutters in response at top of my uterus.

Tried lying down, and felt baby move 10 times over the course of the day, which is not as frequent as they usually are.

Just not sure when "reduced" movement is a lazy day or when it's a sign to panic.

I was always told that as long as baby has moved 10times during the day, things should be ok.

Id see how the irn bru works and if you're still feeling a little unsure, give your mat ward a quick call x
 
Phoned mat ward - to go in for monitoring -be back in a bit.
 
Hope everything is ok lexie!!!!! Let us kno as soon as u can!!!

I'm off to Birmingham nec baby show tomorrow!!!!

Baby's fine, having a lazy day but got heart rate and movements monitored. Apparently to phone over the weekend if I'm still worried. They were all lovely.
 
Glad everything is ok Lexi - they do like to worry us when they get a bit of a lazy day but if you are worried it's always best to get checked out anyway!

Leanne - hope you enjoy the baby show hun :)

I'm now starting to feel really really uncomfortable. My whole stomach feels really tight and stretched, so when baby moves its painful. I'm sure this baby has had a growth spurt, Im feeling really heavy. I guess baby has dropped but now just want baby to arrive.

I could have written this as it's exactly how I feel at the moment - feel like my bump has doubled in size and every movement hurts at the mo as well!
Am really not sure how I'm going to manage another 3-5 weeks of this! But I know that I will. :)

I hope everyone else is having a lovely stress free pregnancy.
Lexi - I know the feeling about trying to stay tidy - the shapes I got into tonight to try and shave and tidy up bits - still haven't cut my toenails yet - mainly as I can't quite reach them at the moment! (sorry if tmi!)
 
Lexie - I'm so glad everything is ok. Take it easy.

Leeanne - Hope you have a great day. I always wanted to go to a baby show.

Rosie - I'm with you on thinking how I'm gonna cope for 3-5weeks. Baby was really wriggly last night and kept getting shooting pains in my cervix. Plus I got up 3/4 times for a sodding pee haha

I keep hoping that baby will arrive early but I've got to remind myself that it might not happen and to not get disappointed.

I don't think baby is gonna be early as my scan dates and due date by my cycle match, so can't see why baby will be early if my dates are right.

My first was 'late' by a week but if you looked at the date she was conceived (yes I knew exactly the time within 3days lol) she was born 40weeks lol

Hope you all have a nice relaxing weekend x x
