October 2019 Babies Club

Darn it pesky sickness, i hope tis just in the morning and thats it... Getting sick is a totally differant kettle of fish.. I still cry if I do it.. Mum gave me the tip of mints to suck on, when you feel a but wheezy.. Problem is then i eat a lot of mints..

A small belly though is good, ah to be slight im still working off the baby weight from no. 1.. Fair deuce walking 4 - 6 miles is that intentionally or do you have to walk it to get somewhere.. I have to cop myself on have just been too tired to get out there but will change that now have to or it will just get worse

I just deleted a big post again, drives me mad. But in short was saying your a mighty and clever women then I suppose if you dont walk they you would sieze up more so best to do it.. You will give me inspiration I have been very bad with getting out for walks and really just need to knock it and go for it...

Dito with the shopping i hate it, I have been wearing the same pair of pants id say (well as in i just keep going back buying more of them) id say for 3years. I know they fit and i dont have to try them on so i just keep getting the same ones haha... They stretch so fit during pregnancy mind this time they are getting a bit tight but I have thighs and find it so hard to find pants that arent skinny jeans or leggings which i hate...Dont have the patience for shopping to me it all looks the same

Scan today cant wait

You have given me a push SS.. I shall be out everyday for a walk now even if it is short.. I used to be very good and then I started to mind another little girl two days a week, and between waking up earlier and well she would not walk to far, I got out of the routine of going for a long walk...

Does anyone here use the buggy boards, while i am thinking of them... I was thinking of getting one for our buggy for this reason, that if our little one does not want to walk to far at least she could go on the board and the baby in the buggy. Was thinking of the boards with the seat so if anyone has any reviews on either, all welcome..

The scan went great thank god, it was great to see the baby after so long ... The lady said it was the perfect size and all that goes... No we decided to keep the sex a surrpise this time round.. I was just looking through the measurements of this baby compared to our daughters and they are bigger head etc so more convinced it is a boy...

I love looking around at all the different bumps on the ladies, they are all so different just makes me smile...

One good pair of pants will get you through alright, I ordered one black dress for such occasions from Dresslilly. Must say it is great cannot fault them...

thanks Shesty i shall look into that one.. I remember when I was in the nursery and there was just the one type the buggy board own brand there are so many out there now.. Ah twud be just for short walks now nothing too serious.. I can imagine having a few kids shopping would be a nightmare if one had free reign of the store... They should have creche spots in the shopping centres make it so much easier...

Just a rant but id love to know if it is a woman who is behind the adverts for the like of Always and that.. Just watched another stupid one, women like to be soft but strong.. Im like yeah thats how we feel around that time of the month...

How is everyone doing!! Hope ye are getting plenty of sunshine and enjoying the good weather...

Had our 24wk check with the GP yesterday all is on schedule, found the heart beat no problem this time which is great. Funny with the little miss I thought it sounded like a swan flying and this time it sounds to me like a train... The swelling has started in the feet they are huge, and have got spider veins which just adds to the lovelyness of it all.. Heading on a short plane trip next week so got some flight socks for it so hopefully they wont explode...

Have the glucose test Fri, really dreading it not looking forward to fasting or waking up so early for it, or travelling in. Was considering not going but I asked the GP her thoughts and she said in fairness it is very important research so it is good to do it..

What's the glucose test Milly? I presume it's for diabetes. It wasn't mentioned to me at all. Were you offered it?

Just turning 24 weeks now.. been a busy couple of weeks. Baby Sam is very very active which is great for Daddy to feel him but tiresome for me some days cause my bump is high and when he's kicking he's getting my stomach and makes meal time less enjoyable..
Woke up this morning with major dizzy head and its lasted all day.. hard to lift my head up and having 2 kids on summer holidays makes it a tough day.
I've got my GD test tuesday week.. had it with my first baby and it's a long morning to sit there but I'll have food in my bag so I can eat as soon as..
6 months pregnant already its flown by! I had the flu jab couple weeks back and whooping cough one maybe in 6 weeks or so..

Hope everyone is doing well. My consultant has told me to get the whooping cough vaccine. Anyone got this before? It looks like there is no need to get the flu one as we will escape flu season. I have no problem getting it I just didn't know there were any vaccines given to women who are pregnant.

Thanks great to hear it is straightforward and you had no side effects. I'll go in next week.

Anyone had any unexplained bruising? I get them on my legs and arms which is normal and there small.. yesterday though one of the kids hugged me and my boob hurt sonic looked and I've a massive bruise there. It wasnt there in the morning or when we were shopping and I definitely didn't get hit or even touched. It looks like I got punched hard or grabbed really roughly.
Heading to doctors this morning but it's got me stumped completely. Feels like a swollen or lumpy area under the bruise

Yeah I get small bruises easy on my legs but something this big on my chest has even the doctor baffled and he's worried the platelets are low.. not helped that I'm 3 weeks with another bad kidney infection and he's threatening to send me back into hospital.. kids on holidays and no one available to help as they work kinda puts the stress factor into it

Its frustrating as hell some days.. I'm just hopeful I wont need hospital but he said its serious at this point and shouldn't be getting them so badly..
I'm gonna see how it goes the next week..

The funny thing is as parents we manage when we have to. I remember the kids and myself on a weekend away and they both woke at 6am vomiting.. everywhere.. I just held them then stripped them washed them put on fresh clothes and gave them a bowl each.. they were 2 and 3 at the time.. it was a few hours later I felt the drain of it all

I know I'm beyond lucky been a mum.. and been pregnant having had fertility issues and so many other women are still waiting for there miracle but that doesn't mean we cant complain about the hard parts right?
28 weeks now and I'm in full on pain with the pelvis and that's all I'll have for 12 weeks at least..
And even though this is my third how many Braxton hicks is too many? Last night and the night before I was having them loads and they got super uncomfortable too.. I lay down in bed after drinking water and took hours to subside enough to sleep..

Running after 2 kids outside while like this is not easy at all...!

again i do not know how ye do it with more kids.. just back from a weekend away with the family and tis getting harder now just to even bend down to pick up the little one and run around after her.. at least she is just one.. Hope you are ok SS, you should book a day off for yourself, run away for the day or night... Book into a hotel and just run a bath ohh sounds loverly..

No braxon hicks yet, but the legs and feet are very tired now and saying bending down is getting to be a dose, think im going to have to stop shaving the legs im knackered after it haha....

Tis like a workout ... God really feeling the tiredness the last two days and really hoping I am just run down and not getting a cold... restless last night and the little chap was bopping away like mad all night...Anyone else notice more activity!

Has anyone gone to the dentist also? I really need mine cleaned ( i am very scared of the dentist also ) was thinking about going i know i need work done but like done plan to get anything like that addressed
