LADIES DUE SEPTEMBER 2015 :-)

Vendah it feels like a strong heart beat in your tummy.... you will know it when it comes...

anyone else feel like the nights are just the worst because it is so uncomfortable to sleep..?

Hi ladies

Eish I have not noticed any hiccups, I wonder how they feel like. Hubby is finally helping me get the house ready for the baby

I bought nursing bras from woollies but I think I should of rather bought the carriwell... Anyway will see how it goes with them.
Thanks for the peekamoo suggestion Betti. Will look into it.

I had my appointment. I only gained 100g in 2 weeks but the baby gained 250g. He said I need to rest more etc but everything looks fine.
They also put me on this machine to monitor the babies heart rate. Apparently will be doing it at every appointment from now which will be every week from now. Anyone else going to go every week?

Vendah, I also refers to all of you when I chat to my hubby. He was very confused at first lol

Anyone else feeling the babies hiccups everyday now?

Yoh sorry Beti I am glad u r ok

So how r u ladies popping and where?
I am popping naturally at genesis hospital with Phindi as my midwife

I wonder who will be the first to pop

U know when I go out and see preggy women with almost the same size tummy as me, I wonder if it is not one of the ladies from our forum.

Everytime I talk about u guys my hubby thinks I am crazy for example I would say u know I am gonna be the last one to pack my hospital bag, nd he would be surprised asking who else is packing lol

Vendah, I also fell down stairs about 3 weeks ago and cried like a baby, not because of being so banged up, but because of what could have happened to our little bundle if I had landed wrong. My knee is still pretty bruised and skinned, but at least it's starting to properly heal up now.

I've started with my hospital bag, but can't seem to finish it as I also need to wait for my babyshower before I go out to buy anything more. I'm thinking it will be in the next two weeks or so, but I might be wrong. I'll probably have a separate babyshower at work in the next 3 weeks as my last work day before maternity leave will be the 14th of August. Looking forward to these experiences...it's such a special time!

Bought myself some maternity bras at Baby City on Friday, the Carriwell Seamless Drop Cup Nursing bras. VERY, VERY nice and supportive, and SOOO comfortable, with lots of stretch left for when my milk comes in! I also struggle to find pyjamas that button up, so bought myself two Peek-A-Moo T-shirts to wear in hospital instead - they are made especially for nursing and I won't have to expose my belly / chest to breastfeed. They also have short sleeves so I'll be able to wear them in summer as well (if I manage to breastfeed that long). They're pretty pricey (I paid R225 each) but if you're interested, you can have a look at www.peekamoo.com/index.html.

I will be 34 weeks tomorrow - in a maximum of 7 weeks I will finally hold my little angel in my arms!! Scared out of my mind, but also SOOO excited!

Girls, we're ALMOST THERE!!

hi ladies

thank you, i am well back at work, i am due in 7 weeks lol exciting things, i think my baby shower is on the 8th lol hubby might have given it away yesterday but still not sure now i am trying to get an outfit ready. i cant wait for the baby shower so i can prepare for the baby, yoh time flies

Hey Vendah

Sorry about your fall. I know how you must of felt. It's very painful on our bodies to fall like this. I was very sore for a few days... I'm glad everything is ok. A dr once told me that he could take a running kick into my stomach and It won't harm the baby because they are so well protected and insulated. Amazing isn't it?

I have my Drs app today. 34 weeks. I am getting nervous about going into labour as I've heard it can at any time now ... It feels like he first trimester when u continuously going to the loo to check for blood
