Oh java I would have cried too if my chilli burnt! Could you try sleeping in a different room to combat the sleep walking oh and dog? No point in you getting overtired either!
Twomums I hope you don't even think of Aldi next Thursday!!
I slept last night... like obv I still had to get up to pee but I actually slept! And I slept for nearly two hours on the couch today: it is so nice to actually sleep. It's been weeks since I got anything remotely resembling more than an hour of uninterrupted sleep... just sheer bliss
Both my mother and mil are driving me LOOPY ringing and texting: yes I know I fainted but god ye ringing me and annoying me is not going to help!!0 -
Aldi will be the last thing on my mind next Thursday
Sleep is a wonderful thing - bar peeing three times a night I'm enjoying fairly sound sleep
I'm pretty lucky that my mam & MIL don't harass me they have both checked I'm ok but don't hound me about it I would be driven mad if I was you Cyning 0 -

That's the very reason we are splitting our wedding over two years as I didn't know how I would be feeling when the day came around & I wanted to be able to celebrate with our guests
I don't drink anyway so that parts fine but I would be gutted if I couldn't have a dance
Enjoy the rest of your birthday weekend!0 -

Happy birthday Mink and Kildareash Hope ye had fab weekends!
Tinkerbell I'm sure you have more done than yuu think: and if not you will get it done!!
Ginny Aldi is always nuts around here! I must go and get another cellular blanket and more babygrows and vests too: I really only have the BARE minimum for hosp in clothes.
And mmm silly a sweet table... I feel really jealous now
My friend had a baby boy: all 9pounds 7 ounces of him: massive :eek:
I went properly packing my hospital bag yest: I swear I cannot fit everything in: all of babies stuff takes up the suitcase: I don't even have a pair of pj's in there. And I literally have exactly what they put on the list and nothing extra: I must go back and look at it :rolleyes:0 -
Happy Birthday ladies
We went for a quick trip today to Irish National Stud in Tully
there was few horses with young ones and they were feeding them, and I get emotional.
Our friend who was with us was so terrified and he made some comments to my hubby about psycho- wife.
OH get upset and almost left him there alone - my hero
anyway it was nice day
and I get a nice picture to baby room 0 -

Ah I was just being a grump! I can only be mad at him for about a fifth of a second usually.Tinkerbell4484 wrote: »I'm almost 32 weeks and I was saying to dh the other day, I've only 8 weeks left but 4 if it decides to make an early appearance like ds4 did!!!!! He wasn't impressed as I've nothing done
Oh my god you are so close! I keep forgetting I'm due at the end of July and a lot of ye are at the start. I'll probably end up delivering in August!Just had to take paracetemol, head killing me, might be the overload of sugar at the wedding, choc fountain, ice cream cones and a sweet table...
Yeah lots of sugar can make you feel unbelievably crappy, I've had coke & cake three days on the trot and I really feel overdosed.My friend had a baby boy: all 9pounds 7 ounces of him: massive :eek:
Jesus babies are really getting bigger and bigger these days. Would love to know the different averages from years ago etc0 -
Javagal - my partner now asks me "how are you feeling, is everything ok" in an evening if she wants a drink as she had thought about having a drink the night I fell she would have felt so bad if she had have done & then I needed to drive myself to the hospital I usually respond with I'll stay seated for the evening
Sugar hangovers are awful - I don't drink at all but after a night out when all I could get to drink was sports type drinks I was curled in a ball the next day...the alcohol drinkers were all fine & I was a mess...it was very ironic
Icecream cones at a wedding sounds super! I'm not a foodie person so I'm hoping to have similar stuff at our do next year I would love to know how they had it set up! 0 -
Mink babies really are getting bigger! That's what scares me about being told our little one will probably be a big baby as a big baby now really is a BIG baby :eek:
Seeing my consultant again on 17th so hopefully he will be able to let me know if she is still heading for big the last guy was his cover so will be interesting to see what my guy says as he exudes calm
He checked her over when I fell and was surprised that she was gone to breech but she seems happy there at the moment!
Is anyone not experiencing Braxton Hicks? I don't think I've had any but it seems like most of you have so I'm starting to wonder if my belly is being lazy about its exercise - that wouldn't be surprising 0 -

No braxton hicks for me either I don't think, and I also have an upside down breech giant child to deal with. Down to the single digits in the weekly count down, baby room not inhabitable by even the filthiest most mess-blind homeless person let alone a poor giant baby, no hospital bag, nothing for hospital bag in my possession. no way to hospital figured out. full. blown. freak. out. And still I can't bring myself to get organised. I was like this in school and college too, last minute cramming the night before. Cop on woman!

Lots of braxton hicks here too...I was expecting more pain. But the only way I can describe it is like a muscle spasm. Uncomfortable for a few seconds till it passes.
At my GP appt last week, the nurse said it's to early for baby to be in position. Think it starts to turn for out at 32 weeks or something like that.
Had a really bold junk food binge yesterday.

Kildareash you are right they can keep moving at this stage. He was just surprised as she has been transverse for ages so wasn't expecting her head to pop up on the scan where it did funny thing is I was at the docs that morn, doc had a feel & said she was head down although not in a fixed position. Got home & she was wiggling about all morning including a very big movement across my belly...that night when consultant scanned her she was breech so I guess she didn't like being upside down 0

I'm just washing my first load of baby clothes they are so cute!
I have also made a list of different brands weight & height for size 0-3 months (I plan to do it for all sizes) as they range from up to 12lbs to up to 15lbs depending on the make yet they are all 0-3 months! I think it will help to know which sizes will last a little shorter/longer etc I now know tesco are on the generous size while asda run on the smaller end - should help with future shopping 0 -

No braxton hicks here either. Plenty of rib kicking though! In 9 weeks I should be a mammy :eek: Cannot believe it!
My brother gave us 6 big boxes of clothes for 0-6 months that belong to my niece who is 10 months old - she got so many presents when she was born that half the clothes still have the tags on. And my mum's friend gave us a crib which is practically new. Getting sorted slowly but surely and getting very excited!
Mink, hope your OH treated you to a nice lunch to make up for being late!
Cyning I know what you mean about the hospital bag - my labour bag is packed to capacity but I have a case for the ward which I'm not filling because I plan to have OH bring me in stuff and take away the dirty stuff. Though the case is rather large
2mums - you all set for your big day on Thurs?0 -
Mamaheidi - getting there got shoes on Saturday! Looked great out shopping with my scabby nose & black eye scab came off sat night & eye is much better so looking fairly normal again
Have to get hair cut tomorrow, that was meant to be last Wednesday but A&E took priority but after that we are fairly sorted!
Next year will be a far more busy affair...we are keeping this one pretty relaxed
Re clothes - that's what concerns me! I do hope that people shoot for 6ish months rather than anything smaller as I would hate to see gifts not get used! If she is as long as expected she won't be in 0-3 that long & may never see newborn we rarely buy clothes as gifts as everyone tends to, you end up with loads of one size & clothes preference is so personal!
We have bought 4 or 5 leapfrog twinkle twinkles (violet & scout) as newborn gifts - each & every set of parents have commented on what a god send it is for getting their baby to sleep! So we are def getting one for our little one 0 -
