I'm just back from an unscheduled visit to the midwife. This baby is trouble already - probably revenge for me being such hard work as a baby!! I was driving home from work today and I thought I was going to feint and had to pull off the road. I had to stop another two times after that because I didn't feel right and didn't feel like I could catch enough breath. Well, it turns out everything is ok but baby has turned breech. I started getting braxton hicks yesterday which feel like a washing machine in my tummy and make me catch my breath as well as shooting pains down below - I guess the reason I can't get enough breath is that I have a head up there and the shooting pains are little legs! I know it doesn't matter yet that she's breech but it's mighty uncomfortable (and something I've never experienced before!) so I'm going to start doing the daily exercises on Spinning Babies and I hope that might help! Of course the DVT scare last week has me worrying about every little thing also, which probably made me panic and likely made me feel worse!

Sorry you're so uncomfortable, Z! Tell that little miss to stop kicking you in the nether regions!

Oh ok, I chose the one which attaches to the nappy because you can use it anywhere - and the ones which go under the mattress can't be used in our hammock. Might be an alternative to consider!
I still feel terrible, kind of spaced out and weird. I've also had an upset tummy and was dry wretching this morning. Every now and again I feel like my heart stops and I get a rush in my head, which is weird and scary. I think (and hope!) that I'm just coming down with a bug because the cold I've had for weeks has got worse again and my ears kept popping on the drive to work and I know ear problems can cause problems with balance etc. I really wish I was 10 weeks down the line!2005 2007 2009 2012

Hello All!!!
I'm back from my vacay and wishing that it had been 5 days longer ...
The only bonus of being home(other than seeing my family ) is that nesting has truly kicked in!!! Holy toledo!!! I'm going crazy! I've cleared our storage room, gotten birth supplies ready, going through closets to donate/sell/throw...it's been wonderful! My back is killing me but other than that it's been great.
GG- I cosleep as well(bassinet and in our bed) and I don't feel the need for a monitor but I know that those under the baby monitor are finicky and go off when there's no issue, so it would cause me more stress. What makes you feel the least stressed out is the best idea
Z- My goodness! This baby is not being nice to you!! I truly hope that once this cold is gone, you'll be feeling right as rain! xo
I'll come and post a bit more once this nesting urge has been satisfiedCrunchy Mama to 3 rambunctious boys~ '06 :bike: '08 '10

ok i thought you meant the other kind of monitor....duh..lol
i agree with Z if you want one of the monitors go for the one they attach to baby, not the under matress ones.
when my eldest was 3 weeks old, he had an apnea episode, stopped breathing, freaked us all out.
it turned out to be that he still had crap in his lungs from when he was born.
we spent 2 days in hospital , and he had one of the ones they attach to bub on him the entire time.
that worked great, and he had no more episodes .
when they sent us home they gave us an under mattress one to use for a month, for peace of mind.
that stupid thing was going off all the time!, even when he was breathing fine and fast a sleep that thing would go off, all hours of the night, we had hardly any sleep , after 2-3 days i ended up taking it out, because all it was doing was causing stress and waking everyone up.

dannikins i think your under the mattress breathing monitor must have been faulty because i've had one with each of my boys and have one now with my dd and I think I must have only ever had 2 false alarms... I couldn't live without one, it makes me feel very reassured when i go to bed at night
I successfully had my girl nearly 3 years ago thanks to an awesome plan from atomic. I have just started on Ozempic to try and lose some weight due to PCOS and it’s working well. Does anyone...
Ozempic/GLP - does it sway girl -...
