Zandri take it easy mommy, i can imagine how misreable you are plus the heat
Where is pp today??

Hi Ladies

Clueless - I don't know if it is because we were talking about it but I just had the most horrendous pain on the lower right side of my uterus. It felt like my spleen rupturing or something. Lasted for about a minute then subsided. I also found a tiny spec of blood when I went to the loo Really worried but the pain is gone now and I feel fine again. Hate it when this happens

Juanita - I have all the symptoms you had in your first pregnancy. My blood pressure has been a concern for a couple of months now because it stays between 128 - 135 over 87. My Dr is keeping an eye on it but I have to monitor it at home as well. Sorry to hear about your temp issues I would have lost my temper long time ago.

Anyway I wish I could go and lay down a bit but have to get back to work. I think I will go to bed early tonight. Just feeling off today

Hahahahaha juanita, sell it!

Oh ps, my temp that has been promising me for 2 weeks she will come in today was once again a no show. no sms, no phone call, no email nada. and shes ignoring my calls, even phoned back once to find out who it was but then put the phone down in my ear.

i really am trying to be the better person and just forgive her and move on, but its so damn hard (although i havent said one mean word to her). even in the sms i sent her this am i just expressed my disappointment.
i really wish i could just for once forget about all my good intentions and just go for revenge!! i mean i could get such a kick out of "selling her car" on gumtree for a ridiculous price and have people phone her day and night

@Clueless, i know how you feel regarding worrying about your lg, and not wanting to get too excited till she is here. i feel exactly the same. i cant remember if i was this way with Leandi, but i seriously doubt it. i blame social media!! they have made us so aware of everything that can go wrong. Just try to stay positive and keep your focus on God!! Be strong my friend

AFM i have been very lucky regarding the BH. i think there was one eve where i had it quite bad but that was it. i still get them every now and then (like once in 2 weeks) but they are so mild i hardly notice them. *touch wood* With Leandi i never had a single BH, not that i knew of anyway

@LM dont worry about that old nag that cancelled on you, she wouldve just been a drag so best shes not there. vergeet en vergewe en beweeg aan. people like that just want someone to blow their own horn.

Despite my babyshower being cancelled due to a very jelous and insecure "friend" my girl friends were all very sad not to have a little celebration for baby Larissa, so they are all taking me to a very fancy restaurant for a brekkie saturday. im feeling very blessed to have such awesome friends, and looking quite forward to our little outing.

@Zandri, your pregnancy sounds a lot like my 1st. i was very uncomfortable, i was swolen badly, i had heartburn, the list was just endless. and in the end when i got high blood pressure and put on bed rest, well that was just it for me. i thought no way im going through this again but with this pregnancy, although i have my complaints dont get me wrong, its just a breeze compared to my first. people have been complimenting me on how well im looking and how they cant even believe that im as far as i am. definately helping with my self esteem!!! just stick it out, not long now before your lb is here and all your ailments will dissapear

35 weeks today!! only 3 1/2 weeks to go!!!

Thanks Ladies, you have put my mind at rest a bit.

I'm pretty worried about this little girl, to the point that when people ask me if I'm looking forward to the new baby, I feel that I will start looking forward to having her, once she's out safely and I can she that she's ok. I remember I was worried about my first as well, but I don't know if it was this bad Zandri, I think I agree with you. We forget all the difficult time and feelings so that we are willing to go through this again

HVDB, That sounds so idyllic! It is a real comfort if baby sleeps and eats well, then you know she is growing well. I also remember the advice on keeping them on one breast for more than 10mins, so they can get the hind milk. Have to remember to remember this time round I'm much relieved than it probably wasn't true contractions that I felt. That helps a lot, I almost had us going to the maternity ward twice! Which would mean, in the middle of the night, either driving there on my own, or waking up the entire family (hubby, daughter, dogs and cats) and shipping us all off to the hospital (ok, minus the dogs and cats, but you get my drift). After just having gotten my daughter settled and back to sleep after her middle of the night toilet break. For a false alarm nogals

Hi Clueless

I know how you feel. I am a first time mommy and every time I had a pain or a symptom I had to talk to my Dr. He usually just smile and tells me to relax. I went trough the BH topic with him a few weeks ago and that how I know but I am also very much clueless on the pregnancy.

But if it makes you feel better, I have heard from a lot of mommies that they completely forgot everything from their first pregnancy. My sister is pregnant with her 3rd baby and she asked me about symptoms she is having. She said that she cannot remember a lot of details from her first two pregnancies.

I think it is natures way of helping us to go trough pregnancy more than once - I told my hubby the other day that I am not sure if I will be able to go trough pregnancy again but I will probably forget about everything soon after and before you know it the second one is on the way lol.
