Janie: hun. Sounds like you've had a rough day. It is good that the ob is keeping an eye on you but the best person to judge how you and bub are doing is you. Don't feel silly if you just 'don't feel right' and want to be checked. Perhaps start a kick chart and also start a BH chart to see if there is any regularity to the pains you are feeling.

As frustrating as it is, now is the time to rest as much as possible. Call in some favours, accept those offers of help, eat take away if you don't feel like cooking. Don't feel guilty about Noodle, he will be fine, he will have a new little brother or sister in a few months and will be so busy and excited.

Take care hun

Spring xx
