Fish yes we do presents for the baby and also from the baby! The kids get super excited about bringing in a present each for the baby-and even more excited receiving a present!! I'm just sitting getting the 2hr glucose tol test... Even though I passed the 1 hr one. The doc wants to make sure nothing was missed as this bub is measuring so big.... It's a pain but worth it to know for sure.
Oh no salsa do you have to drink the lucazade? Gross
Thorz get eating hun you've done we'll I'd be massive if I was on bed rest!
Found some cute big brother tees on eBay one with tractor and one with pirate perfect boys off to choose a present for the baby with daddy this pm ;-)
DLTAG- Happy Anniversary!!! Hope you had a wonderful day to celebrate :)
WAG- I'm glad you're feeling better. Take it easy as much as you can.
Thorz- I'm sorry for the worry but as others have said I'm sure baby is fine even with you not gaining weight. I lost 10lbs during my 3 weeks in the hospital and they had a nutritionist come talk to me but I simply can't eat more than a few bites at a time. Ultrasounds show baby is still huge so it's obviously not affecting him!
Salsa- You look great! How tall are you? I'm only 4'11 and so I think that's part of why my bump gets so large because my torso is so short that baby has nowhere to go but outward. This one is also measuring huge in the 95th percentile.
Mum- You have a cute bump too and you carry it very well!
We also let the kids pick up a small gift for the baby and the baby always has a gift for the older kids which the baby "gives" to them when they come to visit at the hospital.
Well I have great news ladies... I AM HOME!!!!!!!! Since I'm 34 weeks tomorrow and we live less than 2 miles up the road from the hospital, my dr decided to let me come home! I'm still on very strict bedrest (only supposed to be getting out of bed for bathroom and showers) and still taking the same meds for contractions. It feels amazing to be home. DH and the kids have been wonderfully helpful. I'm so thankful to have some time home before baby arrives :D
Oh southern that's perfect news! So pleased your home fx he stays put for a couple more weeks! Do you have someone to help with the boys?
Southern so happy for you! Staying in the hospital even for one day feels like an eternity
Took a while ladies but finally managed to get onto laptop to upload my recent bump pics, this one is me at 31 weeks exact Attachment 12605 And here i am again at 32 weeks, im holding a little weight at the bottom of my belly on this one, but shes laying transverse so laying up really high.Attachment 12606
This babys measuring on the 90th percentile, see my midwife monday and hoping I start steering towards the 50th percentile :s x
Finally able to relax and take advantage of the lovely weather we've had in the UK. Thursday was my last day at work, all my colleagues are lovely and held me a surprise baby shower where I was presented with this ...... :suprise:Attachment 12607
How many of you ladies are still working? And when do you plan to leave work. I decided as I had 3 weeks holiday to take Id make the most of it and finish a little earlier, hope I dont regret it and go over 40weeks!! Im hoping I have my girl a good week before Im due :)!
Southern: Glad your back home and make sure you follow bed rest orders, I dont think it will be too long until we see a picture of your little bundle x
I know I have asked you a million time southern but I can't remember how early we're your other three boys?
Southern you have to be so pleased. Especially being with your boys again. Enjoy it and look after yourself. In 3 wks time you are full term.
Lady- Seems several of us have huge babies! Congrats on your last day of work and what a lovely gift from your coworkers!
Thanks so much ladies, I know I've already said it but it really does just feel amazing to be home with DH and the kids. WAG, no worries I don't expect you to remember everyone's backgrounds and previous pregnancies lol. My others were born at 31w, 35w, and 33w.
Fish I'm calling you out... I think you're the only one left who hasn't posted a bump pic! :P
