Oh gosh, this just makes me tear up. Damn hormones ;) But I am so happy for you! And I admit I can't wait for mine to get here. It is still so unreal that I just want to see her to make it real. Although I am not ready. Nope, not at all. Lol.Quote:

Well I had another session of reflexology last night, this time tho she used acupressure points to try and help me go into Labour nothing so far but a few BH! I know she will come when she's ready though!
How is every1 else feeling? Whos next after me? X
Fingers crossed the pressure points trigger something for you. Acupuncture seemed to work for me both times but like you say they come when they are ready and my boys were probably on their way anyway but I guess you never know :)
By looking at the list Baby2ontheway is up next but the next name that Ive seen posts from on the list is Tiffany1234 & Luckylass - both due 17th March - So close ladies :)
So tell me, Am I in the 3rd Tri now or at 28 weeks????
I Had some kind man ask how long I had left & when I said around 11 weeks (I use the C/S date as it makes it sound better lol) his wife rolled her eyes at my belly lol I need to get over these eye rolls and comments but it's so hard when its EVERY DAY!! The last comment I had was one of the mums at school asked me when I was due and when I said May she goes "wow, I have a friend having twins in May and she's not even as big as you" I know people dont mean it in a hurtful way but it is really upsetting me now... My DH says when people ask when Im due to say "I dont know" lol Not sure that'll work with the mums at school. Im just feeling a bit emotional about it, I feel like Im being judged by my size, I seriously cant help the way I carry my babies and it's in my genes to have big babies but if they saw my boys now you wouldnt know they were big at birth so its not like Im purposely over feeding my babies to make them massively obese children... Sorry Im just rambling now..
HBP I'm sending positive labor vibes across the sea to you :) Hang in there, you are so close even though I know it must feel like an eternity xx
Bimby I had that for weeks it got me really down tbh, all the comments about how big I was was so upsetting and seemed to come from everyone everywhere I went! I started to get really cross about it and would really snap back at people. If its not telling me how disappointed I should be I'm not having a girl it's wow your so big this time! I wish people would just keep there comments to them selfs there so unhelpful. One of the ladies at work the other day said to me wow you've got that long left you can't get any bigger can you! I didn't even reply to her it was priceless!!
You should reply with well at least I'm pg what's your excuse. Or have you had your eyes checked recently think you may need to I'm pg not fat!!
Personally I would never insult a pg lady about how big she is!!! we are what we are and we are growing these amazing little people and that's something to be so proud of not insulted
Sorry rant over lol xx
Bimby try not to let their rude and ignorant comments bother you. I get massive on all my pregnancies from about 20 weeks. There is very little until then and when I hit about 20 weeks I get very big and look about 8-9 months for the rest of the term. People comment on it but I just try to ignore them. For some reason others feel like they have free reign to comment on pregnant woman all the time. On ds1 I was more concious of it and we were in Florida on holls when I was about 5 months. Came home and when BIL collected myself and dh at airport he said "wow you would really know your pregnant, you are huge". Now I had grown and was a size equivical to a US 0-2 before that so it was noticeable but I was so offended. Couldn't give a toss what he thinks anymore, although MIL likes to remind me when I am eating too much. :(
HBP I am going to be a bit like an online stalker checking in here to see if you are gone yet. So excited for you and hoping it happens really soon. :)
A friend on mine is being induced today and I am waiting patiently to find out if she is having a boy or girl. So excited for her, baby fever here.
The thing is most people that comment to me are other mothers, you'd think they would be a little more respectful after being through it themselves, maybe they were the "perfect" pregnancy model lol.
HBP Im stalking too hun, no pressure from us though, I just love the anticipation every time I log on ;) x
I've had people say the opposite. I'm pretty tall so I tend to look small when I'm pregnant. And people have said horrible things to me in the past that had me calling my doc and demanding an u/s...lol. So many people would tell me that I must be having a very small baby. I was beside myself....especially with my second pregnancy. But I've had baby's between 8 and 9 lbs so I just ignore them now. But it did hurt my feelings and worry me for a long time. Some people don't have a filter. I'm sure you all look absolutely beautiful.
God a lot of people really do suffer from "foot in mouth" syndrome don't they. Talk about being rude and making mums to be worry. 3 men it is awful people make you worry like that for no reason but I know the feeling.
Agree with you also Bimby it is often mothers who should know better who say these things to you.
Back from another growth scan,fluid level is fine,good news, but babbie is measuring 6lb 3oz ish at 33 weeks,meaning she has gained 2lb in 2 weeks,and with 6 weeks until my c section and at this rate she will be about 12lb born!how accurate are growth scans and would this worry you??
