has anyone else's nausea/sickness returned? i had this happen with my last pregnancy too, im wondering if its somehow linked to the acid reflux. the sickness is nowhere near as bad as it was at the start of the pregnancy but i do get hit with waves of feeling sick and i did end up throwing up last week :-/

blue booties glad your feeling better, when will you finish work? you must be exhausted by the time you finish on day 10!

Ash i think you need to stay on "vacation" if you want your little lady to stay put as long as possible love the pics of her room you put on fb her bow collection is amazing [emoji813]

So after i do this 10 day stretch i get 10 days off then back to my 7 days shift 7 days off routine till baby comes

4blue2pink I've just started getting really uncomfortable like babies head is sitting right at the door of my cervix... I waddle from side to side and it actually gets painful to walk too long...

The only difference I've noticed in this pregnancy from my boys is that I don't have the pregnancy line (linea nigra) I did with them. It was really quite dark during my boys pregnancies from 25-28 weeks onwards from memory yet I've only just noticed the faintest line appear over the last few days and I'm on week 34, it's so light I only 'see' it because I know where it should be.... Anyone else experience this? Pretty sure it doesn't mean anything gender wise [emoji23][emoji23] but its an interesting difference!!

Pbn3 i have always had one but this time the line and my areola took forever to darken up. Plus my breasts aren't heavy or sore at all which is quite different for me.

pbn i hear you on the pelvic pain!! this baby is sitting very low too and the spd is really bad at night, trying to turn over in bed is agonising now though strangely im not in too much pain walking i think its when im not moving that it seizes up and then has to kind of unlock (with alot of crunching and cracking) when i try to move which is what hurts!! i know that symptoms arent reliable for gender but i will say that i had a few symptoms with both my girls that i never had with any of my 4 boys so you never know!!

bluebooties im shocked that they make you stay on such long shift patterns right up to the end, especially when most of it is spent on your feet, will you get much time off after baby is born?

Interesting Bluebooties [emoji848] cant believe you have such a grueling work schedule until your due [emoji22] 7 days must be very hard yakka, especially being on your feet! Do you get issues with excess fluid in the last few weeks? I'm off to sleep but will talk tomorrow [emoji42]

4b2p I have been throwing up every morning again but then I feel ok for the rest of the day until evening when the acid kicks in. And thanks [emoji4] I don’t guess you can ever have to many hair bows right? I’m starting to wonder if all the aches and pains are worth trying to hold out until after Christmas or if I should just get the call rolling once I hit 36w...
Pbn I don’t notice the line as much this time either! Girl, girl, girl!!!
Blue I vote boy!! This pregnancy has given you a world of issues compare to your others it seems like.

Ash im similar i feel ok after throwing up or once the sickness wave wears off, its not constant like it was at the start thankfully!! oh no youve got the acid too? its horrid isnt it!!
i love hair bows but have never done them with either of my girls, i try tying my 2 year olds hair up sometimes but she just pulls it straight out!! id wait for 37 weeks and then baby wont be considered premie and will be allowed to go home with you straight away rather than having to be kept in and monitored etc when are you 37 weeks?

I’m not sure if it’s acid or what the deal is I just have this constant burning aching pain in my left side right around/below my rib cage. It’s been like this most of my pregnancy but wayyyy worse at night so bad I can’t lay on that side. Dr said it’s probably just the baby at this point taking up so much space but I didn’t argue and say well... it’s been like this the whole time. I had it with my last two also and it went away after pregnancy so I’ll just deal a few more weeks. I’ll be 37 on Christmas Day! The goal (according to my dr.) is get to 36 which I think won’t be an issue at all since that’ll be next Monday. Ds4 was 36w6d and we were still in for a week due to jaundice so this is why I’d really like to make it past Christmas because more than likely this baby will have it also since my other 4 had to be admitted back under lights.

No unfortunately i can either do maternity or vacation in a year/12 month (july to june) and so i opting for vacation in june. After baby i got myself 2 weeks off by exchanging my work shifts around with colleagues. Yeah maternity benefits sure are crappy. Plus starting jan 1st we will no longer get any paid sick leaves. Normally we had 3 days per year of paid sick time off [emoji45]

I normally do but this time i haven't gained a trace off fluid even my rings are still lose on my fingers. No leg cramps at night just a creeping crawly sensation. My back does hurt a lot by the end of the day and all i want to do is lie down.

My biggest worry is and (always has been while pregnant and at work) is what if i run into a code/cpr situation (god forbid) and am the only one around to start chest compressions !

Ash they say the more acid reflux the more hair the baby will have. Speaking of which the sonogram tech pointed out this last biophysical profile that baby already appears to have a ton of long hair so boy or girl i believe i need to get my baby brush and comb out and to the ready [emoji4]
