PAMPERS JULY 2010

hi everyone,

newbie- yes it pretty much is sore all the time sort of throbs constantly , has been a bit better since yesterday i didnt stand alot.. but believe it or not the lying or sitting does put just as much pressure. ja.. the last time i was pregnant it pretty much did go in the direction of" other ways of pleasuring" but you know what it was actually a "mission" for me to get started on anything.. not that im shy but just didnt have any energy. so i dont know what is gonna happen this time. will have to wait and see. as for being supportive ive actually been feeling very distanced from my husband of late.... i know its the third baby and it wont be as exciting as the first two.. but i actually cant say that he has recently put his hand on my stomach to atleast try and feel baby kick. even when i tell him shes awake. just feels like im in this by myself.

i have been very emotional the last two or three days especially . i cant handle the comments he makes even if just jokes.. he had me in tears last night.. earlier in the evening he told me "im lazy" cant remember the exact context. i was highly upset.. i mean im the one who is 25 weeks pregnant.. im the one who does the cooking all the cleaning..see two the kids..( makes sure they get bathed etc etc) the only thing ive been leaving to him is to put them on the nebulizer at night.. how many more things do i need to do.??? i go straight into the kitchen at night to start cooking cos we wont even be home for 20 minutes and he ll be moaning he wants his food... ( most nights i try to cook for the next night but not always possible) and i may be lucky enuf to get to watch 7nde laan.. then its off to get kids done.. off to clean kitchen.. off to do whatever other cleaning needs to be done.. i will have done washing and he wont think to go hang it up for me.. i mean really.. i feel like im being taken advantage of.. maybe im just overreacting... i only get into the bath between 9.30 and 10.00 most nights and then i must still wake up for my daughter during the night..( i dont have an issue with this)then get up at 6.00 to get kids up, dress them , make lunches , pack bags.. and still get myself ready.. im exhausted by the time i reach the car.. and then i will still have to put up with comments.. like youre " one big pain" when i complain about my back being sore.. and now the veins. i asked to be pregnant it didnt happen on accident but i really expected more from him. and now im starting to wonder why i wanted to be pregnant in the begining . i shouldve had my head read. dont get me wrong i love my baby and would do anything for either of my kids or baby im carrying but i just feel as though everything is just too much..

Jo thanks for the weights, i am very curious to see what my LB will weigh today
also i have all my notes that i need to ask the gyne and hope she can answer the best she can.

the time is almost near roll on 3 o'clock, while with me being sick yesterday i really could of also done with the day off today and the director see's me and is like OH U BACK??? i was like i was off one bloody day!!
drives me so mad.

Jo sorry u feeling tepramental as well, i am sure its just a phase, our babies are almost here ladies!!! i mean how exciting!

Isha: Shame man, had a bad night sleep since Monday and finally I managed to sleep through last night didn't even wake up for my usual midnight wee Luckily I dont have much back paid but my hips do tend to ache a bit. So I feel for you!

Ashbabe: Good luck for the scan this afternoon, post the scans so we can see if you can. Sorry you not feeling 100% hope you feel better soon.

Jo_C: Thanks for the weights, I'm relieved Thought baba was going to be as big as his grandpa, that would have killed me I'm sure I'll remember that comment when she gets out of line again, strange how it is always the same people I hate being nasty but they just keep pushing the wrong buttons and being pregnant doesn't help my moods I'm sure hubby will forgive you nothing a cuddle and kiss wont fix.

Hey ladies,

I've had to do some catching up. Have been on conference in Jhb and busy, so haven't really had time to pop by.

Sindy - baby's weight seems fine. I found that the charts on the internet are just so way off the weights we have been posting, I started keeping track of some of the other ladies weights when we were on PF and this is what I jotted down:
25 weeks - 785g, 1.1kg
26 weeks - 850g, 1.1kg, 900g, 847g,
27 weeks - 1.25kg, 1.27kg, 1.03kg,
28 weeks - 1.6 kg, 1.5kg, 1.4kg, 1.2kg, 1.3kg,
29 weeks - 1.4 kg, 1.6kg, 1.5kg
30 weeks - 1.8kg, 1.9kg, 1.4kg,
31 weeks - 1.9kg, 1.5kg, 1,7kg, 1.6kg
33 weeks - 2.4kg, 1.9kg

Naomi - Glad you found us.

Newbie - you are so hard on yourself regarding the weight. 5kgs is excellent and you are doing so well. I have read that anything less than 12kgs can be lost before your 6 week check up, so relax girl. Be proud of yourself for a reasonable gain and a healthy baby!!

Vicky - can't comment on the V Veins at all, sorry girl. Never knew they were painful

Sindy - I have heard a lot of comments by other insentive people on the forum, but that on takes the cake (i think). Remember "I can diet and loose weight, but there isn't much you can do about being a ignorant, insensitive fool"

ash - sorry to hear u are feeling lousy. Good luck for your gynie visit. Let us know how it goes

Isha - shame man. Sorry to hear about the lack of sleep and achies. Not nice.

As for me - I am so irritable, cranky and teary. Hubby's mil and sil) cannot do anything right. I just wanna rip their heads off, so I have been avoiding them a little and now that has become an issue. I thought I was choosing the better option to stay away, cause I am just too nasty when I'm around them, but nope thats not it either...

Poor hubby can also say and do very little right at the moment. When we spoke this morning he mentioned something that he thinks we should do and I just snapped "you mean me... we don't do anything, I do!" which is totally unreasonable, cause he did actually mean "we should" and I know he meant we, don't know why I snapped and now that I am typing about it I'm crying cos I feel so bad for being so nasty!!

Morning Ladies

How are you all this morning?

Vicky, i was on 82.8 pre-pregnancy now on 90. on the WL scale i was 78.6. I wish i had that scale in my home. Cause i weigh different on each one. But i summise i picked up about 8kg so far. Definitely going back after baba.

Newbie: LOL for wanting to punch the client in her face.

Sindy, for vertelling your colleague like that. I just Ally Mcbeal images in my head of me bashing their head against the wall. LOL

Ashbabe, hope you feeling much better today. Post some nice pics of your lil angel tomorrow. Hope gynae gives you the birth option you want.

AFM, still lack of sleep and achy achy back. I just dont think he(my DH) understands. He tells me i should stop walking around at work. Little does he know that i hate walking now.

Morning Ladies

well i was off sick yesterady and i cant believe i slept the whole day this flu is just so bad and i feel so sick, i just feel that i moan all the time but honestly before i could dose myself up, have a steaming hot bath and get into bed now all i can do is take panado and sleep ;(
I am back in the office today and have my gyne app at 3 i cant wait i think i am also gonna speak about birthing options, i know nothing about a ceaser though ;(

newbie - weight issue, i agree i am also trying not to stress until after baby is here then we can start another group with weighloss tips etc.
Juandre - antenatl classes, i start on the 24th may and must admit i am also looking so forward to it i didnt have them with chloe so i am keen to see what all i did wrong HAHA

Vicky - varicous veins, shame man, i dont even know what u going through but i really do hope that u get some relief soon.

well i get in today and u know i start off by downloading my mails and i swear people cant function without me here, drives me insane rude emails and just i think they need to learn about email etticate! argh

I hope u all have a great day and as i said i see baby today so i am so EXCITED :dance:

Newbie: What a BITCH,

I also had a collegue that had to make such insensitive remarks, dont know what they are thinking (if they are thinking at all) when saying things that hurt.

This collegue of mine had the tendency to say (in front of a whole room full of clients and bosses)"are you eating again!" (then it's a salad and my lunch)"I can see you getting fatter by the second."

Until one day I stripped my moer and told her that at least I'm not still pregnant with my 2 year old like you! I at least have an excuse for being fat what's yours?" This was about 3 months ago and she hasn't said a word since, that shut her up.

I still feel bad for saying it but she just got me on a really bad day. Usually I would just suck it up and cry when I get home then DH would make me feel better.

Hope the rest of the week passes quickly I need a rest. Have a good one
