Third Trimester Of Pregnancy

Third trimester

Writing this as a late post and a new mum J


Were my sickness began to subside and sounds weird but the reality of really having a baby finally kicked in.

This was the best and worst of the pregnancy. I had some really good days and some really bad. I came to terms with vomiting as a way of life now.
Work was coming to an end, babies due date was getting closer it was all about getting final bits now.



I got all my stretch marks at the last 2 months of pregnancy!- ( after thinking I got away with it)

A month before my due date (8th September) I got this rib pain, which made me go A&E. they gave me strong medication, and sent me home. The pain did not go and I was told nothing could be done, until I have the baby… great.
The pain was bearable and I got use to it, so no harm.

Needless to say, I got very impatient and restless in the last month. Daddy’s birthday being 7th, mine the 17th and due date 22nd I was very, VERY nervous.
I felt like, because the baby was so active that he would come early. (wasn’t the case)


I went hospital with contractions about 2 and a half weeks before he was born  (Did you know sex brings on contractions) these contractions are suppose to stop, however these ones did not. I had them for about 6 hours before I went in. When I was seen by the midwife, she said I was 2cm and the baby was positioned and my cervix was really soft. GREAT.
I had the option to go and come back, I went and walked around and my, my. The pain got worse. However they STOPPED! Just like that.


Day later I lost part of my mucus plug – forgot to mention the midwife gave me a sweep. (painful)

Week later now, I lost the remaining of the plug and started to get pains for the next few days on and off so I found myself at the triage yet again. Checked  - still 2cm J.

So now you can see why I was impatient and restless. I just wanted to meet my baby.






My 25th birthday came and my sister came from Canada to surprise me! ( Wonderful woman)
I was taken out the day after to celebrate my birthday. When I got home I got my sister to do Zumba with me (Team Player) drunk a nasty concoction I threw up almost immediately and went bed lol



The day after was go time!

DIY smash cake

Image
My sons first birthday came a long and i wanted pictures to create memories of course. I had seen smash cake photographers for around £150 plus which i thought was a bit crazy for a few pictures and a cake he would be smashing. i think my pictures turned out pretty ok before editing. What i needed.... balloons, party banners, lights, cake, cake stand, camera and lights. I baked the cake as i bake- you can bake a cake from a packet if baking isnt your thing. I already had a camera and camera lights but expensive things are not 100% necessary. A decent lit room and a phone with a good camera ie iPhone 8 will do the job nicely. everything costed around £10.   He was not very keen at first Even at his age he hates messy hands!! Was pleased with how it ended  xx

Ferber method on 10 month old

Image
We are currently on day three of the sleep training which is killing me. I am only looking at night sleep as i feel there will be far too much crying trying to include naps also. He is a consistent night waker wanting a cuddle or boob. Night one- Baby went down at 11:00 where the crying began all the way up until 00:29, where he finally fell asleep. We started out leaving him for 5mins, 7mins, then every 10mins. I feel as though the checking on him makes him cry 10 times harder but i feel even more guilt if i let him cry for longer. so what do i do? Anyway, after he fell asleep he woke up at 8:17, which was unbelievable for him. You would think at 10months he would be sleeping longer stretches but no. I am working on a routine at the minute and trying to get him to bed earlier but if his second nap is late it messes things up. I'll be back for night two! xx
