I am fine,kinda bored other than the usual pregnancy discomforts as swelling of legs,pain in the hand in the morning,
braxton hicks,pain in the vagina and of course my daily companion my heartburn.
Am waiting for my parents to reach here on Oct 1st. Manisha replied. Hi Kals

Good to know about you. These days i really want to check how's everybody, as we r all so close to the big day.
I am also fine, weekend was very very tiring for me. My PIL reached here safely on saturday, but after a long journey they were very tired, then jetlag etc. So looking after them made me tiring, feet & hands swelling, pain in whole body. This is there first visit to US, so they do need some time to adjust. Today they are feeling much better, gone for walk.
Best part is, I have got so many new dresses, sweets, so many cute baby things & dresses. Then today morning my MIL made very tasty halwa rich in pure ghee & dry fruits, initilly i was telling her its too much ghee, but she was saying i should eat it, but it was really tasty. Now she is going to make that everyday for me.

Is anybody else has also started eating ghee, or any other changes in diet in last month?

Manvi replied. Hey glad to know you r doing ok.Just hold on for few more weeks.As for me iam just little dejected,iam just finding it so hard to cook.I feel like eating good stuff but when i get into the kitchen i make some crap&then feel terrible to eat&serve hub too.He is busy&so isn't at home most of the time to help.Shldn't be cribbing too much bcos mom is coming.I hardly slept last nite bcos i developed a yeast infection.I have never had one in my life,so it was distressing bcos I had vaginal soreness&itching.Iam just in tears today bcos I have to spruce up my bedroom but just not getting to the task.
Anyway hope to go out with a friend today to lighten up.Take care,the wait is now getting loong!But the lil one is so active it makes me smile&I am ready to bear it all for the next 3wks.
Girls all of u cheer up&let's stay positive. Uma replied. Hi Frnds,

I am not doing too good as these days i am having periods like cramps in my lower abdomen,bad swelling in my feet,swelling in my hands spclly fingers with bad pain,hardly can sleep,feel breathless at times,get irritated most of the time due to all the discomforts.
But the best part is the moment i talk to my baby,baby responds so i have fun talking to the baby,and above all my hubby the sweetest & the most caring person in my life makes things little easy.I have just started my 36th week tdy and still 4 weeks to go so am getting v imaptient to be with my baby.
This is wht i am going thru,hope rest of u are doing fine spclly Nikki.

All the best to everyone!!
Take care,
Uma
Anu replied. Hi kalyani,

Nice to know that you are doing good. I too feel very tiered and sleepy these days. Today morning I came to office with great difficulty. This is my last week in office. I will be taking maternity leave from next week. Hope to feel better then. Discomrts are back pain and pain in the vagina some times. Pain is not very severe, so ignoring.
Yah , only 3 more weeks to go, but 3 weeks seems to be very far :) I am eagerly waiting to see my baby. Hope all us will have safe delivery.

Take care,
Anu. Radhika replied. Hi kalyani

Recd. ur mails. Thanks a lot for the pictures/jokes u send. Glad to know to u are fine.
I am doing much better this week than last week, was feeling very tired last week, this time feel much more active...don't know what changed. Cannot sleep for long though on one side, got used to it now. Otherwise, going on fine. No problems yet. Backache not much lasts for sometime, ignore it most of the time not too painful..I am getting impatient though, would like to see the baby earlier..lets see how it goes.
I hope others are fine too..hope to hear from all of them.Take care, keep in touch..bye
