Nikki's post - pregnancy time to get to target SW diary!

Trying not to think about induction on Saturday :( I feel very moody and sulky and I don't like being like this cause I'm normally pretty laid back :( x

Oh hun, try and smile. Isobel will be here hopefully before the weekend is out! Looks like it could be sunny today so get yourself out in the garden with a book and chill out for a bit xx

A bit worried....

Hopefully its the natural progression of your pregnancy Nikki, but Im sure if the midwife is concerned she will check your BP/urine etc. Let us know how you get on xx

BP was perfect and nothing in urine so looks ok :) I mentioned about gaining 9lb in 2 weeks and how much ive gained overall and she said because of how low my BMI was to start with she thinks it perfectly fine. She said I have gained more than average but thinks i will lose a lot of it without trying because im all bump! She weighed me and i weighed 13st 10 on their scales but that was wearing leggings, dress, shoes and cardigan.

She then went on to take blood and I have never had such a painful blood taking ever. She said she felt resistance when going in, even though it went straight into the vein and the blood came straight out, as she pulled the needle out I sobbed and sobbed it hurt that much. So feeling sorry for myself now and im on the sofa, mamma mia on the blu ray and my duvet. Will have a nice chip butty in a bit and some choc I think.

Baby is also 3/5 engaged and midwife couldnt wiggle her so doesnt think it will be long now!

I really hope she is about ready to come! I have never had pains like it and its sore like you really need to the toilet or something. Going to take it easy today :)

How olds your little one Donna? Will there be a big age difference when you decide to have another?

Its constant, like a giant rubber band all around my belly and into my back. Then occasionally its like the feeling a used to get when she sticks her bum out right in the middle of my stomach. Probably nothing but i'll keep an eye on it xx
