midwife check

back from my m/w appointment, firstly after saying over on vox h/b of bubba is def boy area it goes and confuses me and goes up a bit it was 136 and 139 at last 2 appointments but today 149!! still not as high as my girly's were though, they were way up 150-60s. bump measuring 35 weeks (i'm 36, all ok though cos i never have measured the corrct weeks always under everythime i am pg) and my b/p a respectable 110/65 and now for my mini rant, i am 36 weeks today, in the old days i would have been seen fortnightly from 28 weeks after previously being 4 weekly checks, today she said see gp in 2 weeks then see me 2 weeks after that, erm that'll be my due date then!, in the old days i would be on weekly visits now, i have hardley seen anyone with this pg, i had a booking in and then my next antenatal was at 26 weeks, and now even at the end i still dont get much care, i just wanna feel a teeny bit important now i'm in the final stages its not too much to ask is it?? i know its good though that as they dont need to see me it means all is ok with baby and thats the main thing :0)

wonder what the h/b will be next time i have it done (gp is very boring and never counts it) maybe i really do have a Maisie Bea in there lol!

Nan

my lil ole nan died yesterday morning at 6.45 am, bless her she certainly hung on as we were told she wouldnt make it another day a week ago!, i dont feel sad at all, its soooo strange, like i said on my vox it just feels right and it was her time . i just look back and remember what a lovely nan she was she really did have an amazing life, caused a right old scandal in her day lol when she was 18 she was a private nurse and was looking after a lady til she died, then went and married said ladies widower 6 months later, she was 18 ................................he was 62!!! that was my mums dad, can you imagine the raised eyebrows in those days!, then he died when mum was 6 and she goes and remarries again a year later, more raised eyebrows lol! so heres to Florence May Barnard/Girling/Dade the last one of her clan, ooh she was one of 10 children and one of her brothers had the coolest middle name ever his name was Robert Dearlove, how cool must my greatgrandparents have beeen :0)

other news is i have FINALLY pulled my finger out and bought something for the baby! well not much really just added a pack of nappies and cotton woolballs to my asda shop which is coming today :0) suddenly thinking eeek 8 weeks isnt enough time to get ready now! might go up in the loft later today and rummage through bags of teeny pink/blue/neutral vests/babygrows :0) i will add a pack of nappies every week now i think just to keep me stock up, oh and i ordered some muzzies of ebay to keep my stock up as moll still has them as a cuddly at night, so i'm on my way to getting ready!

Bump and names help!

ok heres a piccy of my bump taken at 30 weeks, post christmas so i have a layer of flab hanging over my waistband :0( i was sooooo careful too stayed away from the chocs and cake, just shows that no matter what you will still put the weight on!


baby is now head down and 3/5 engaged and i STILL havnt done a THING! i need a trip up into the loft to rummage :0) but after the clutter of christmas and now only just getting back to normal i am loathe to start bringing stuff down just yet. i know the moses basket is wrapped up well as are allt he sheets, and after i had moll i resorted all the teeny babygrows into neutral/pink/blue bags again good job i am a hoarder of baby stuff, even after this one i will still keep it, just cant bare to get rid of any of it!

names, as i am 31 weeks thought we should start thinking about what to call this baby! graham shocked me by saying he now likes Ruby for a girl, hurrah UNTIL nathan sniggered and said it sounded like booby, and graham decided we couldnt do that to a girl just incase in later years she did have massive boobs! grrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
so what do you think would go??
Nathan, Jessica, Molly and.................................................??? please fill in the blank!

oh names that cant be used cos they are already taken by family and friends are oliver, charlie, joshua, sam, connor, harrison, isaac, harry,ben, jack, bruce, douglas, fraser, gregor. (loads of boys!) amelia, alanah,lilly,flora,amelie, esme, ellie, ... gosh there really is a girl shortage with family and friends lol!

other news is graham has his snip snip tomorrow! i have to go as well and sign a form and meet the doc with him, so clare if you read this it must be differant in other areas, although i think they would still do it regardless the letter does state that they like to meet both parties prior to the treatment. he has to shave his bits later pmsl!! maybe we could do each other (though not a full shave in my case, just a tidy up as i cant really see what i'm doing down there anymore!

back home :0)

Awww thanks all, for your lovely words, jess was a star, not one tear or worried moment from her :0) i on the other hand blubbed! for the 2nd time this week, goodness me what is wrong with me??! lol! i only blubbed after she was out cold though and you will be pleased to know i stroked her forhead for her til she dropped off (think thats what set me off really, its like they are really ill and you are stroking them goodbye :0( ) anyway 25 mins later she was in recovery sitting up chatting away to nurses and asking when she could eat lol! actually it was a lovely day!! they have that patient line thingy installed now so most of the day was spent with jess glued to the telly or doing a bit of colouring in and me happily sat in a chair reading my book! felt a bit like i was on hols!

the patient is now home with several cards and a pink get well soon balloon :0)
