Passing the Time...?
Hello I hope hope all mums and bumps are well!
I'm going in to be induced in 27 days time. I know a lot of you have to wait a lot longer but it seems like such a long time away.
I was wondering if anyone had any tips on what I can do to pass the time. I have a 2 yr old and when my SPD calms down during the day I try to get her out to the park especially as the weather is so nice. I have almost completed the baby's room now, just got to put the cot up (well OH does that). All lo's clothes sorted, hospital bag sorted. What else can I do now? I am SOOOOOOOO bored you have to help me!!!
Sorry to winge I know there are others worse off than me, but I'm going crazy.

You poor bored thing you
Do you have friends that don't work? You could make the most of this lovely weather and have lazy lunches (get them to do all the work though while you chill) or maybe have a pamper day with them, a real girlie hair, nails, make-up thing. I'm sure you're 2 year old would love that too (visions of 2 year old being dressed up and made all pretty )
Or of course there's bubble gum tv. You know, all the rubbish that is generally on from 9 till 3 9 (might make you completely mad though)
Good Luck and hope all goes well on the big day.x
i'll have to ask my friends over. might go round theirs actually to save cleaning up mess. thank you! xxx
Jennie - they wanted to give me crutches too, but how the hell are you meant to get around with a toddler too??!! Are you being induced too?
anyways seeing doctor next week but i was induced last time and really dont want it this time , i reckon if i pushed it i could but still trying to grin and bare but its so bloody hard. going to see if i can get better pain relief. R u taking any tablets?
i have a few things left to buy so have planned the odd shopping trip for each thing, so rather than getting it all in mothercare to save time im going to look at wheres cheapest and travel a little further afield to get all that i need. im most comfortable in the car at the min and the cool breeze when driving is lovely!
i dont have spd though so im luckier than you girls, can you drive with it or does it completely restrict you?

I did some baking the other day, scones, but they never last longer than a couple of hours then they're all gone!!
I am able to drive thankfully. I'm not in pain when sitting down and driving as my legs are kept together. It's when I try to get out of the car and walk to the shops that takes AGES and is really painful. My doctor applied for me to have a disabled blue badge (feel like a right old crust for having one) but otherwise I just wouldn't manage as the park spaces are so far away from the town centre unless you can park in a disabled space.
Ive actually found driving really hard and painful so sort of given that up unless im nipping to the shops , but agree getting out the car is the worst!!
god all i seem to do is moan at the min!! lol xxx
