Finally have made it to here

:dance:

Well I have officially made it to the 3rd trimester I am so excited by this fact that I thought I would pop in and share some of my excitement around and see what hints and tips you all have in here LOL

Work ends for me in 2 weeks woo hoo
Antenatel classes start on Tuesday night
Got my Lovely Glucose test on Thursday Morning so that should be wonderful NOT
32 Week scan in a month to check on placenta previa state sure hope it has moved up a bit just so it aint level 4 and isnt gonna cause quite so much caution I can handle a low placenta but total covering cervix and having to knicker watch and be so careful is sometimes a pain considering I can't get most things ready in nursery as can't move too much that is not on wheels or bigger than a flipping bag of shopping LOL should just enjoy being pampered hey.

Another frustrating thing is I feel all these kicks and somersaults but every time I get DH to put his hand on my tummy he cant feel anything or the muchkin stops not happy jan LOL it must be a boy in there being so difficult hey. Any tips on getting hubby to feel his childs movements other than just lots of waiting I guess.

Anyway done some more shopping and got most of the basics and will now wait till after baby shower and see what goodies that brings then can see what else I shall need hey.

Hi there and welcome to BB, hope you enjoy the site.

Welcome to trimester 3!!!

It is such a relief, hey? Exciting too...we started our antenatal classes last week...

I didn't find the GTT test TOO bad...sort of like flat lemonade...but it made me so sleepy!

All the best with your scan...I've got one at 34 weeks, I think! Hopefully the placenta has moved up for you...

I know what you mean about the baby's movements stopping as soon as you get someone to feel them...so frustrating! I find that early morning or late night seems to be the best time...in the mornings, I often lie up against DH in bed and he can feel the kicks through my belly...also, I have found that if I get him to talk to the baby in the morning (face on my belly), he will normally get a couple of kicks!

Wishing you all the very best!!!

Congratulations :happyforyou: Enjoy this wonderful time... Soon you will hold that baby in your arms... :hug:

congrates and welcome.

I find that just after dinner, have a really cold drink then hop into a nice warm bath. My bub flys around then, its great.
Also get hubby to leave his hand there for a while/ages. sometims I think they know there is a hand there (can feel it) and it scares them a bit, so if the hand is there for ages, then the bub can get used to it and starts behaving normally.

Goodluck and HTH

Welcome to BB and to the third trimester:dance:
Hopefully the next few weeks will just fly by for you.

Thanks for all the great tips and hints Gals

It's great to be finally getting excited for the upcomming event rather than be cautiously optimistic now we know it is really happening.
