I'm now booked in for the 8th - next Wednesday! Had a phone call this morning and the hospital is fully booked up on the 14th so they are squeezing me in late on Wednesday. In one week, I get to meet my little boy.![]()

WOW Megan, how exciting for you! Not long to go before you get to meet your precious little oneGood luck
Wow Megan only a week to go until your dream becomes reality. A special little present from the Easter Bunny for you.
BG, am in the same boat as you re movement this week.
June Bug is mainly doing large movements and only a couple of larger kicks this week.
Also more fluttering when I lay on my side.
I get weekly updates from baby centre.com.au which really have been spot on every week so I hope this helps you to.
Fetal development - 31 weeks pregnant
Megan very exciting that bubs will be here in less than a week
AFM, was made redundant on Monday from my job of 5 years (actually 50% of my team lost their job).
All is good got paid out but it means 9 weeks of nesting are ahead of me.
Bubs furniture arrived yesterday which was very exciting!!
Belly rubs to all and hope you are all growing well![]()
Nicole, sorry to hear about your job. Seems to be happening a lot lately.
As long as you're not stressed about it, and you were paid out I guess that makes it easier for you. You get to enjoy the last couple of months of your pregnancy and get plenty of rest.
Nine weeks of nesting hey? I wish I could manage one!! lol I really had to force myself to do some stuff last night, and once I got going I was ok. It's just the getting started part I struggle with!
thanks for the link Nic - i have been keeping an eye on movement up until now - i don't think i'd have been so stressed had it been gradual to slow down - but it went from sunday morning full on "i'm gonna bruise you mummy" to nothing but flutters Sunday night, all day Monday, and then nothing, even using all the "tricks" Tuesday morning. after monitoring on Tuesday, the little brat is back to "i'm gonna make you suffer" status! love it though - it's awesome laying in bed watching my tummy "bubble" on the surface from all the kicks. and Gremlin STILL responds to daddy's voice over the phone - it's so cute! i think the fears with reduced movement have been made worse as someone on another forum i visit (IVF/AC only) had a very similar weekend to mine and actually lost her bub on Tuesday at 38 weeks - it's added to my fears a whole hell of a lot
so sorry to hear about your job hun. it sucks timing wise to be left in limbo about returning to work after bubs is here, but the redundancy payment should help out! i'm STILL waiting on court hearings to finalise over a redundancy i'm owed from Feb 2005 - it was granted late last year, then appealled by the company, so is apparently going before the courts again this month - i really NEED that money about now!
was supposed to go to work today but my boss and i have agreed it's not worth it. i am generally green with nausea by the time i get there, and am not my usual efficient self cos i have to run to the loo cos i feel so bad all the time. thankfully it dowesn't impact my mat leave entitlement if i finish out my time on LWOP which is awesome. i have an appointment tomorrow in that town so will call in there if i'm not feeling too bad...
the nesting urge has started to hit here but i'm struggling with the energy to get everything i want to do done! it's so not fun - i can see it all but i just know i'm not capable of doing it (and DH would be sooooo peeved if i did - i have a habit of blacking out if i overdo things!). so i have been hiding in my bedroom, watching DVD's and working on a quilt for the baby! i feel like i'm being productive without physical exertion. Easter weekend will be really full on as DH should be home for the long weekend - he'll be working his little butt off helping me get all this "stuff" done!
