Post subject: Hello
Zachariahmummy..theres a few due round that date, i'm due 5th Dec..so if they move your dates again then you'll be due nearer me won't you? So if they do move your EDD will they not let you go beyond 2wks after your new date? even though it'd still be before your original due date? Char, i've been getting strong BH too, more so on an evening Do you get them all day long?
The workshops were great, think it did the trick of putting Chris at ease anyway. I've got the midwife coming round at 36wks to check the house (entry, space etc) and they'll drop of the homebirth box so I'm going to prep a home box (& hospital bag, just in case I need to go in). I'm getting a bit paranoid that my bumps stopped growing lol, especially as the final 10wks are just purely gaining weight I'm sure she's fine. She's more active than she was last week..but I'm finding as we're getting to that final hurdle i'm worrying about her a lot more
Have you mentioned the SPD to your MW? I see mine again at 34+5..thought it was 36wks. _________________ Posted: Wed Oct 17, 2012 12:47 pm
Post subject: My BH seem to be throughtout the day and night, they were tight this morning walking to work. I have mentioned it to MW, she just says take paracetomal which i will start to do, its more like a dull achey pain rather than painful.
Glad the work shops went well how scary once that home kits is in your house its all go. Not long till your app and she will measure you, i am sure your growing fine though, was you measured b4 or will this be the first time? Char _________________

Post subject: No she's measured be before. First time she said I was measuring a bit big..second time she said I was spot on for my dates. I think it's just cos she's changing position from laying to the left then all our front so my bump changes day to day. Some days it's like she's dropped too then others she's really high and I can't bend for toffee lol

Post subject: Lol zee i have noticed my stomach has dropped slightly
 . I do feel really heavy down their.
Well i have diffo got baby brain starting to forget things now, like today i forgot my bag for work which has phone, diary my life in  . All i brought was my big bag of food that i prepared lol.
I really am looking forward to it all now, even christmas with my little noah this year and i really go pray to god little Eli comes b4, i have predicted a week b4 OH perdicts a week later lol.  I will try the RLT at about 35 weeks as i was early anyway and did have a quick labour.
I think i have got to start going to bed a bit later, i am finding myself going to bed at 9:30 and waking at 2 and staying awake till 4. Me and OH were just chatting away for 2 hours last night lol. Arh char, i dont know how i am managing to sit in my bath sideways as i have Noah in there too, it is getting tight bless ya. Char _________________

Post subject: Aww, Charlene..it sounds like your having a right time of it
I to really struggle in the bath too and have managed to get stuck a few times too, so your not alone there  Feel free to rant away hun, if we can't do it here..where can we?!
I hope you managed to get back to sleep. Talking of sleep..how's everyone else doing? I find myself getting into bed as soon as OH's gone to work at 9pm..I sleep all night..quite well considering I do have a bit of insomnia about 4/5am but I manage to get back to sleep. Up at 8am but then I'm needing a nap on an afternoon aswel...I've not napped on an aft for yrs 
The braxton hicks have been a killer today.. so tight and uncomfortable I've been taking RLT since last week but not every day and when I do its only one cup a day. Do you think its the RLT doing it or do you think its a coincidence? She's been soooooo active today though and thers hardly any room for her to move so causing a lot of discomfort right under the ribs _________________ Posted: Sat Oct 20, 2012 7:30 pm
Post subject: Hi all,
Good to hear your updates. I also wake up most nights around the same time for a while - I got mocked for watching 'Don't tell the Bride' at 3am the other morning in bed but hey, what else is there to do?! lol! I managed to get an unplanned sneaky scan at my hosp appt this week... the dr thought I was small but Poppy is measuring all spot on, although she is breech, so no worries there. My platelets levels have dropped again, and hips are agony... they literally feel like they have separated further apart now Other than that, all is well this end.
Zee, i work in as school so other than half term week after next we don't get holidays, however I interviewed the lady who is going to replace me and she will have a staggered start alongside the girl who is going to cover my teaching, so hopefully by 38 weeks I won't actially be working much... just training up my cover! Haha! How's everyone's plans for xmas going? I have completed my buying (Studio catalogue hehe!) but otherwise have given it no thought as it will be unpredictable. Is anyone planning on having / doing anything and being optimistic? xx _________________

Post subject: Morning ladies, hope all is well.
I have my MW app this morning going to see if i can get heartburn/indigestion tablets on prescription its so painful lately. Also my pelvis and leg joint popped the other day errr it sounded so wrong lol. I can diffo feel my pelvis parting now. Zee you have started the RLT early lol, sleep I am having some seriously wired vivid dreams about all sorts, I tell OH exactly what i have dreamt of every morning .
Christmas is done for me although I keep adding to Noah's so I have asked people to get him stuff now. Lol just got OH's parents to get for now which is the hardest gift and OH wants a blender lol I will be working up until 38 weeks too, after my next tour, i only have about 4 3 day shifts so not to bad .
Cant wait to put my decorations up and tree, i will be doing it at the end of next month what about use? Char _________________

Post subject: hey girls!
i am going to work until 38 weeks as well. was goin to work until 3 days before but there are no financial benefits as i still wont get holiday pay even if i work until the last day and then i figure when i go back ive got two weeks away from Tigger and then 2 weeks with him again, rather than goin back in Jan for a full 7 wk stint! Symptoms: This horrid varicose vein is getting worse, which i hate, got heartburn and backache but thats about it, im still doing really well! what about you guys? the worst thing for OH is my snoring - he has slept on the sofa the last 7 nights and i feel TERRIBLE about it! I have ordered RLT capsules and i am going to start taking them at 34 weeks as apparently they help your uterus strengthen...is this right?! i havent done any christmas shopping yet apart from for baba, so i need to get my finger out big time! no braxton hicks either yet - well excited to get some! i guess im still the baby of the group, im only 32 weeks! Just want it all to hurry up now! Charlene - i get stuck in the bath too and rolling over in the bed is like a 5 step operation from one side to the other! i cant believe how much i feel like a fat unhealthy person! We had a 3D scan last week and saw him yawning and sucking his thumb which was absolutely amazing, i would defo reccommend the scans! ope everyone else is really well xxxx_________________
