Pregnancy and teething tot

Last night baby moo was teething really bad so I spent an hour hanging off the edge of her cot bed so she could hold my hands. No easy task at 31 weeks pregnant! We ended up in my bed and after 2 hours she finally dropped off and stayed there until daddy came in from work to move her. Today she is much better although very tired lol

31 week check up

Had the midwife yesterday I raised my concerns with her over bean not being as active as baby moo was, it turns out bean is laid with feet and arms into the placenta, so that's why I'm only getting squirms. Bump was measuring at 33 which I keep telling daddy moo I thought would happen as I'm convinced this baby is huge lol. She was very happy otherwise.

I finally have an appointment for physio too so hoping they will be able to help with the awful sciatic pain running down the right side of my body, the midwife did say baby is laid on this side so explains why it's worse!

I have been knitting a blanket on and off since buying the wool in November and finally finished it, I'm very proud of the accomplishment as I'm not very good at seeing a craft project to the end, baby moo loves it, I hope she'll let bean have it, when he or she arrives!

It's been too long

I'm now almost 31 weeks pregnant with number 2. We decided to not find out again so this our second yellow bump. I'm scared about how I am going to cope with two under the age of 2 but I'm sure it will be fine  :-\

Today I packed my hospital bags and toddler Moos bag too, best to be ready. I'm just hoping I don't go over due again.

So far the pregnancy has gone smoothly, unfortunately I'm suffering with a very uncomfortable sciatic nerve problem which I'm still waiting for a physio appointment to try help ease it. I'm not holding out much hope.

DD is coming on leaps and bounds she can count to 10 un aided and has managed to get to 12 today, she is also getting a very good vocabulary on her, it's amazing how fast they grow up.

What's a Midwife?

After 3 weeks of waiting to hear from my Midwife I ended up having to travel to my nearest town to see one as nobody seemed able to find her. I'm now booked in ready for my scan in a couple of weeks and joy of joys by chance I also managed to get hold of my local Midwife whilst ringing the main offices to leave her another message. This is the only problem with living in a small village you don't get the luxuries of a Midwife clinic or having one available at your Doctors.

My morning sickness has been fluctuating from day to day, the worst with me spending time with my head at the ivory seat other days I get away with sucking a polo. I think this has put me off any more much to the relief of daddy moo hehe

Just keep eating

The only way I can seem to curb the sickness is to eat but my appetite has gone tiny so it makes it really hard to do I'm living on a diet of polo mints and tic tacs for the time being. I know ginger should help but i still can't face it after it making me ill when pregnant with baby moo so its mint for now.
Tiredness is also another side effect I forgot about and baby moo seems to know I would like an afternoon nap as she has stopped having them :-( I also keep having freaky dreams which keeps me awake in the night. I actually forgot how hard being pregnant was :-)

Its too hot

The heat has been awful for baby moo bringing back her heat rash so she has been crawling about in just a nappy in the house and a t-shirt in top when we've been out and about. She's been enjoying laying on the leather sofa as its really cool against her skin and its helped bring the rash down too. She has looked very cute at night in her shorties and a little t- shirt opting to not have her cover on and sleeping on top of it instead :-)
As for myself I'm so glad I'm in early pregnancy as I remember last year it being unbearable, heavily pregnant and not being able to stay cool. This time at least I don't have contend with a hot shop too.
Today we have been doing some gardening and getting baby moo to sort stones into a flower pot to keep her entertained, all the fresh air has made her very sleepy mind do FC she sleeps well tonight ;-)
