Hello Ladies

Oh my gosh Lizel that is my car that I want to get next Loving it!!! Sorry to hear that you are not feeling well I also think you should call your doc and go see him just to make sure it could be schock as well that has upset the baby. Just to be safe rather.

I am doing much better today I hijacked a fan here in the office don't think the people are very happy with me cause now they are very hot but I don't care I was so swollen yesterday it felt like my skin was going to rip off my feet not nice at all!

Packing for hubby tonight and then he leaves tomorrow

Just a quick question.....does any of you feel kicks "down there" but I mean like really really low?!?!

I have been getting these kicks since yesterday and they are seriously freaking me out? Is this normal?

Deja thanks for the update and please let us know if you hear anything.

Elrike sorry you also going to be alone this weekend I'll be thinking of you.

Hello to all the other ladies out there, anybody hear for Joey and Chanz?

I'm also plan on taking raspberry leaf tea but was only planning on starting from 36 weeks? Thought it was unsafe to do so before that? Am I wrong? Planning on mixing it with pineapple juice...which is apparently very good too. Will also start taking evening primrose oil from 36 weeks. I read that perineal message makes no difference at all with the second birth. Will ask my dr though. Might start with jungle juice already because I am feeling really drained and can't get enough fluids.

Lizel - I hope you feel better soon. Maybe you should go see the doc? Just to make sure everything is ok.

Tanz - baby is a very nice weight. Just right!

Elrike - glad you had a good scan...sorry he was so busy. Hope you feeling better today.

Morning

Bulelwam, you a small little thing I am a cow compare to you

Elrike, voel jy al beter, hou duim vas vir die datum hoop alles werk mooi uit vir julle. Klink of Mnr mooi groei

Tanz, I am glad baby is going well, he is a nice weight

Deja, Yes hubby does not want the car anymore so we are going to trade it in. He does not want to keep it at all. I may only drive to the office and back. It's like 5min drive in the estate. We busy trying to get a Volvo S60 in the right colour ect.

Hoop Mariet is ok.

I have been feeling not lekker this last few days, I get so naar when I start eating so have been skipping meals. I am dizzy alot and it is so sensitive down there

Deja, is it the first time taking Raspberry leaf tea? I have been drinking it since 32 weeks, thats when it is recommended from.....taking a cup a day and gradually increasing. Am drinking 3 to 4 cups a day now.

Am now 36 weeks and have started taking homeopathic medications Cimicifuga and Caulophyllum...

These are often prescribed by midwives and naturopathic doctors to “prepare” the uterus for labour.

Perineal massage, no haven't started. I mostly take showers and its hard getting my hand down there when upright.... Will try and take more baths and use tissue oil. Will ask google how its done....

Aagh tog vir Mariet... hope and pray all is well with her.

Morning all

I must admit I miss having to anticipate going to the doctor to see the baby on the scan. But then I've made peace with it.

Elrike, I see our EDD's are about 5 days apart so my baby should be weighing about as much as Edrich.....
Hope you feel better.

Awesome new Tanz on the baby.....growing well.

Am just curious if any of you mom's planning natural birth are taking any natural or herbal mixtures to get your body ready for labour?

B

Morning All!

Hope you all had a great evening?!

So went to see the Dr yesterday, and baba is doing great. Weighing in at 2.2kg's he is a little busy body!

Elrike - Hope you feel better today?

Will catch up later!

Have a great day!
