Hun I get SI pain and currently it is being called PGP/SPD, you need to get a support belt for SI pain if you havent got one already I have the Serola Support Belt and its fantastic for my SI pain and if im up and walking i'll wear it lower down and it gives some support to my SPD pain as well,

Any new yet lynnikins, I was so hoping to read that your lo had arrived. If cervix isn't favourable then induction will take a lot longer or not work. I'm hoping tho that lo has now arrived for u.

Shinnig star - so glad u have got the go ahead for induction. I've not gone to 40 weeks with any of mine, my 2 "normal" births were @ 36 & 38 weeks. My induced one was @ 37 weeks last time & lo was a good size. I find it makes everything more manageable knowing there is a light @ the end of the tunnel.

Well I'm on major count down now. 4 1/2 days @ work if I can manage it, and 1 week 5 days til induction.

Been getting days where I've been having bad braxton hicks all day so I'm hoping things are getting ready & the induction goes quickly.

I'm getting excited now that will have lo soon. Also looking forward to a few days @ home b4 lo arrives.

Realistically now it will be several weeks b4 I am totally pain free. expecting to need crutches for a good 6 weeks after, but not be totally dependant on them.

I am hoping your LO is well on it's way Lynnikins!

Braxtons are coming and going for me but when they are here they are quite often painful, especially on my lower back. Thank goodness for lovely back rubs from DH! My pelvis is agony today. I was finding it most comfortable to stay in bed but now I find it more comfortable to sit on the sofa with my back supported, plus it is a lot easier to then get up.

I have had horrible acid indigestion and heartburn today, so much that I haven't even been able to lie down for a nap because acid creeps back up despite drinking gaviscon like it is going out of fashion. I have been sick and feel really run down.

I am hoping for good news tomorrow. Consultant at 4.10pm to
request an induction.

sorry to disappoint ladies, no baby,
very sore on the other hand thanks to reorganizing my bedroom furniture with little help from DH last night as the laptop died on me and i needed something to do while it charged, but ive actually now got LO's clothes in the drawers which is closer to being ready, i couldnt move this morning though took half an hour to get up and clothes on then 10min to get off the bed around it and down the stairs to the bathroom ( just glad i didnt need to do that in the night, not that i slept more than 4 hrs anyway ) then had to basicly stay in my chair all day long, made it back upstairs to supervise and do small tasks while DH sorted the spare room so we now have somewhere to put the person babysitting when i go into labour if im in hospital overnight with DH, so its another job out of the way,
i dont know how im going to manage tomorrow though with DH back at work for the day, im going to have to take a bath tonight and hope it gives enough relief else i'll be popping co-codamol all day tomorrow that is unless of course something happens overnight tonight

Huge hugs to you lynnikins I cannot believe that bubs not arrived yet! Best of luck to it all starting tonight!

Well my pain is as rubbishy as ever, I get sick of talking about it tbh cos it's just always the same, lol always painful. The only difference being is the pain has moved to the top of pelvic brim cos one assumes this bubs has moved down, and everytime i walk my hopes give out as well as my lower tummy feeling like it's ripping at the muscles. Not nice. I have phsyio tues, mw weds, will mention it to them both just to be sure we are being normal, oh and too add to my woes, lol my feet and hands have been really swollen, and not going down, not a good sign for pre-eclampsia! (which I had with my first born.)

I'm at my mum's this weekend they came down to get us on friday night, which was nice cos son missing grandad loads. so we've been away for weekend and giving df a well earnt 'bioshock' playing break! (his new pc games he's not had chance to look at since he brought bless him!) So hopefully we'll go back and all will be refreshed!#

Loadsa hugs to you all, esp lynnikins sweetie! fx for you!

i find it hard to wear my support belt when im sitting even if i loosen it off but if i adjust it so its really low over my hips everytime i get up and move around then it does provide some relief from the pain,

My physio said you shouldn't wear support belts when sitting as it presses on the front of the pubic bone causing more pain, should only use it when mobilising.

Lynnikins, really hope you go soon hun, you must be demented by now.

Shining star - unfortunately its always painful, so not much to update when your talking about it, but your in same boat as rest of us, so feel free to share.

Mrs G, fingers crossed you get your induction hun.

Lynnikins -hoping there'll be good news today from you xx -and what were you thinking of moving the bedroom furniture???? OW!!!! I am sore just thinking about that -I can hardly lift the kettle these days- maybe I am just a wuss ? lol

MrsG -Hope all goes well with your apt and you get the go ahead for an induction ,if that's what you want.

Shinning star - ooh take care babe, if you even think there's a chance you could be developing pre eclampsia then please get checked out asap. Otherwise hope you get a nice relaxing break away.

Caroline -can hardly believe you are still working lol -Oh how I wish it was me, I am starting to go stir crazy here.

Mummybear6 -Have you an induction date or anything ?
There's gonna be lots of ladies having babies on here very soon (well in the next month or so) by the looks of your tickers - how exciting!!! Livin -aren't you so jealous of these ladies ???? lol - I so wish I was at that stage , the thought of another 4 months aaarrrgghghhghhh.

Have a good day ladies and bumps - I am off out for lunch (mothers day belated) with my mum and two of my sisters -and oh the joys I have just been informed that I will need to drive everyone. It is so bloody painful driving (the act of driving is getting painful too, but afterwards I can hardly move)

xxx
