UK SMOG Wannabes June

So exciting to read about all the babies due soon!

Kell - the afterpains were quite bad but nothing to get worried or scared about. Just keep dosed up on paracetamol and ibuprofen and you'll be fine and they only last around a week so they're soon done with. You'll be fine with your labour too, try and stay calm and relax and just look forward to the baby you'll get at the end of it! I kept telling myself in my head that each contraction was bringing my baby closer I finally had the birth I always wanted this time around and I actually feel quite sad that I'm forgetting the details!

Kell it's normal to have a wobble at this point - I did! You will be fine. After pains are worse the more you have. But as zanacal says don't skip on the painkillers. I thought mine would be worse. They came and went it wasn't constant pain.

Chocolate I've missed you. Hope your doing well x

i am dreading the after pains! sorry i've been awol a while, mr grey has been keeping me busy. Hoping to finish book 3 today and resume normal life!

rofl @ "mr grey"...yeah, it took me a minute to catch the fifty shades reference...when I first read it, I thought it was a weird name for your DH haha!

[Kell]

I've heard a lot about the books but haven't got round to buying yet. I'm not sure if reading them while this pregnant is a good idea lol

[zanacal]

Are they worth reading? The reviews on Amazon are awful - I was going to download it to my Kindle last night but that put me off! What are they about?!!

The only thing I read nowadays are baby related. Reading baby talk at the mo supposed to be great for speech development. Had it almost a year and only on pg 17 so really trying to read it for dave even though it was meant for ds2. Also got all the Jodie picoult books but 'handle with care' was doing my head in. Honestly I'm to thick to read now. I can only read on the beach or by the pool (but not even then as one the brood might be face down in the water)

Hi to anyone I've missed x

Mega busy here the last week.....school/ playgroup runs with newborn is a task...well trying to get everyone ready and out the door defo is! Especially when you have been up most the night and completely exhausted! I'm I am completely shattered and could fall asleep standing up most days.....but that's down to my diet too so can't blame bubs for all the tiredness
I've lost 8lb in 6 days

DS4 is doing well, loving the newborn bit loads

I am totally engrosed and obsessed with Fifty Shades!! I absolutely love it. I'm stil on book 1, but towards the end now. Don't want it to end Can't believe you've nearly finished book 3 Deaks....you must be a quick reader or lots of free time I am totally smitten with Mr Grey and I love how mysterious he is. Can't wait for the film

Ok off for a hot bath xx

Maybe - Im well thanks, as well as can be with 2 kiddies and pregnancy lol. Life has been hectic, just usual busy stuff but in 2 weeks its all calming down and the calender will be clear, then summer holidays - if u can still call it summer! - will be nice to chill with my boys and get ready for bubba 3.
Im really broody for this one now, keep seeing the cute naked babies on pampers ads and looking forward to having a baby again.

Still get the odd comments, my friend is expecting her 3rd girl and after seeing my boys running around said 'see DH maybe having 3 girls isn't so bad lol' - how rude! But I know its probably a defence mechanism and afterwards she probably kicked herself.

Fifty shades of grade - haven't read it or have a clue what its about, apart from maybe a saucy theme? But everyone is talking about it everywhere!

Oh yes, after pains, they were much much worse with DS2 that I was huddled over until someone offered me painkillers and they worked a treat and I hardly felt them, Ill be asking them to get the paperwork ready for the painkillers for afterwards the minute I get to the labour ward this time lol.
