Activity After Losing Plug ... Posted: 07-05-07 06:40am
i need some advice. we are renovating our
house, trying to get ready for baby. i
still don't have the crib set up because
all of this needs to be done and now rich
is working 14 hour days so i'm kind of on
my own for the time being. his sister
came to help me paint yesterday and i felt
bad letting her do all of the work so i
was helping, climbing up and down a ladder
and stuff to paint. then today when i got
up i had a big glob of stuff on my undies
(sorry kinda tmi - it was gross i almost
got sick). so i'm losing my mucous plug
for real now. i'm just wondering if it's
a bad idea to keep working today. i'm
worried about my water breaking. if i
went into labour that would be one thing,
but if my water broke they would make sure
i had this baby within 24 hours or
something. i guess i'm just worried about
it because i have nowhere to bring my baby
yet, the house is still a mess from the
reno. is it bad to keep working and being
active after losing your plug?

I wouldn't worry too much. Although if I
were you I'd probably take it easy, just
be the organiser. Let your hubby, and
whoever is helping out know what needs to
be done and explain its getting too hard
for you to do it all but that you
appreciate them helping. They'll
understand when a baby is involved. I
guess you need to do whats feels right for
you, when you feel like you're pushing
yourself too much just take a seat and
relax for half an hour. Thats what I do, I
moved my room around the other day to make
room for Paige's things and when I felt
like jelly I just led down for a while and
had a light snack.

Like she said. I would take it easy. I
wouldn't be climbing up and down on
ladders and stuff. But something like
putting the crib together couldn't hurt.
Though just a fair worning I put the crib
together by myself and it's so hard...it's
really a more then one person job. I hope
you get the room ready before the little
one arrives!!
