I had it all ready by the time I was 30 weeks
it was just too tempting sitting there lol I love washing & ironing baby clothes! Can't believe you're 31 weeks already Neyite! Where'd that time go?!
\o/ I can get cracking so! Never thought I would be itching to do laundry. It's kinda not my forte
I cant fecking believe I'm 31 weeks. I'm down to single-digit weeks!!! We got the big stuff today - buggy, carseat, cot matteress and a few other bits and pieces, and it feels good to have them at least. I also have the loan of a moses basket, was given the cot and have a little stash of baby clothes, so if baby arrives tomorrow* I'd cope with what I have so far.
*note to jnr. Dont you be listening into to adults conversations. Stay put for another 6 weeks at least. Because I'm your Mammy and I said so, thats why.

Teehehe the last weeks fly by! I thought they were dragging at the time but thinking back they went so quick! Very exciting getting all the bits in I used to wheel our pram around the kitchen & livin room it was so much fun! Do you know what you're having?? Bags packed yet?
Just make sure you buy a new mattress for the Moses Basket for some reason you can't use the same mattress twice!
In a few weeks pregnancy will be a distant memory for ya I'm still shocked my little fella is turning 11 weeks on Tues!!
Congrats on your BFP funkysoulsista take it easy & enjoy it x 0 -

Havent the bag packed yet, but will work on that this week. Lol at you wheeling the pram around - but then I will probably be the exact same
We want a surprise so all I have bought is in cream and beige. Buggy is purple and car seat is black. The person who is lending us the moses basket had new matteress and sheets still in their wrapper so I am lucky there.
I cant believe your little fella is 11 weeks already!! It seems that when we were on the TTC forum the time dragged by yet its flying over here.0 -

*Hugs*
With my first i had 3 sets off bleeding, 18 weeks, 19 weeks and 21 weeks. I was put on a sex ban at 21 weeks and never had another issue with bleeding.
I never had the steroid injections and one son was born at 35 weeks and was fine and healthy and had a good set of lungs. They would have given me steroid injection but labour progresses very quickly and the injection wouldn't have had time to kick in, however he didn't need it.0 -

Keeping you in my thought Knit Wit & Cyning x
Made & froze 5 days worth of dinners today for after babs is born, 2 hours worth of cooking, I'm wiped out now!!!
While I was out buying the ingredients for the dinners I went to queue up with my basket when a new till opened up so I went to waddle over to it, the amount of people who pushed past me to get there first was unreal. I'm not at all precious about being pregnant I just found it so rude to push by someone who was slower & not as able as they were or maybe I put more faith in human nature than I should 0 -

Knit wit the very best of luck tomorrow! Hope all goes well with the induction and that you will have baby in your arms in no time at all
Cyning, so sorry to hear you are having bleeds again I also had the steroid injection at approx. 28 weeks last time, but still went on to have baby almost 2 weeks past due date.
I hope the bleeding eases off for you. I also know of a girl that bleed pretty much from week 8 til she gave birth & had a perfectly healthy baby at her due date.FunkSoulSista wrote: »Hi all,

Congratulations FSS!!!!!! I love seeing BFP's from the ttc thread, absolutely delighted for you
Ms2011 omg you're so organised :eek: I've told my sister this time I don't want a present for baby - I want batches of frozen food instead
(she's a chef, why bark when you have a dog :P)
Such bad manners people pushing past you like that :eek: I'm not precious about being pregnant either, but its basic manners that so many people seem to lack I've perfected my hormental death stare & that seems to work for me in such cases

Knit Wit good luck today
Bleedings eased off for me but cramping is still there: even though I only saw babs yesterday still get scared though.
Cap its so nice to hear you went over: when they gave me injections i was afraid i was going to go into labour soon. They're talking about inducing me at 39 weeks regardless so I guess they are just being cautious.0 -

I have to say, I found people pretty rude while I was in the later stages of my pregnancy. I use public transport a LOT and I only ever had a seat offered to me ONCE. And very pushy too.
Although, saying that, I did see some pretty rude pregnant women too (eg in the supermarket in my 9th month, there was a couple at the priority checkout who complained about having to wait ten minutes in the queue for a BLIND woman to finish her transaction. Now the woman was NOT visibly pregnant, and she was with her partner, so she didn't have to lift anything, and the cashier DID show her where the benches after the counter (which she refused to use)...it seemed like they were just using her pregnancy to get out of the supermarket faster...maybe I'm being harsh but they were extrmemely rude!)
Good luck Knit_wit!
Well done Pippington, love the name!0 -

FunkSoulSista I'm so sorry to read that the only thing I will say is when I attended my GP for my first appointment to confirm pregnancy, she told me the tests they have are not as accurate/strong at reading HCG levels as the dearer home tests such as clearblue etc are.
I hope it is not long before we see you here again. My own ttc journey felt like a very long one, every month felt like 6 months. I really hope you get your bfp very soon xxx0 -
Also having a hard time sleeping. If i wake up once more bursting for what can only be described as a micro-wee i will flip out!
Great term for them 'micro-wee' If it's going to wake me, it could at least be worth my while
I work in retail also, though even though I have a big bump now, it is quite low/neat so when I'm sitting at my desk it's not always obvious (until I stand up) that I'm preggers. So I feel your pain about people looking at you like you're being lazy for not lifting stuff 0 -
