I'm looking forward to nursery day too jojo and tigger unfortunately I still have a 1.5yr old to occupy in that time but it is so much easier than having both at home and dealing with the fighting and screaming over toys! Luckily James will have a good 2-3 hr nap so I do get some chill time.

Emmam I don't feel baby at all overnight from 10 -11pm til 7-8 am!

I am also breastfeeding haven't bought any formula or anything. But I'm not looking forward to the first few weeks of feeding constantly and trying to entertain 2 boys plus being the only one who can feed baby. But it will worth it.

Tigger I'm totally jealous of the cleaner too!

Massive congratulations to carli on her little boy. Dani let her know we are thinking of her xx

Faye cant seem to get on PF in the hosp!

Al shes asked me to update you all!

Jacob was born yesterday 19th April at 10.03am weighing 7lb 1oz birth went well - both having to stay in on antibiotics and blood sugar checks due to waters leaking from Saturday and that he was a little early.
But both doing fab xx

 

[kanga86]

Aww so she beat her 10 am check up lol He sounds like a fab weight for coming early. How early was he? Hope they don't need to stay in hospital for too long xx

 

[babyslog]

She was due 14th May! So she was 36+ something! Good weight too for almost a month early! X

 

[kanga86]

Oh wow! Harry was 7lb 1oz at 41+3wks! This one will be around 5lb at that point. Crazy how differently they grow. I don't think she would have got to her due date even if her waters didn't start leaking xx

 

[Jojo84]

My movements aren't really felt during the night but I get BH every night r for 2 hours for some reason. I only feel baby if I lie on the side she is occupying and I get a "sod odd my side!" Kick lol

 

[babyslog]

She didnt even need inducing in the end. They went to put gel up but she was already 3-4cm monday evening.
So 6am yest they popped her waters as they were buldging and then he was more just after 10am so it looks like he was pretty ready to make an appearance!

Its crazy how much they grow differently all decide to be born!
This is why i hate this 'average' crap with sans and fundal height! Everyone is different. Just cos ee have smaller or bigger babies doesnt always mean theres an issue xxx

 

[Jojo84]

What a lovely birth that sounds like great weight for 36w... Did they want to bring baby because she had Ben lacking fluid? I missed the reason.

Like was 7lbs 11oz at 40wks but was estimated to be 9lbs this baby is estimated to be about Luke's weight at 39w so who knows. I know someone who's wife had a baby right on time and he was 6lbs 3oz. They're all didferent. My big brother was 8lbs 13 at 42 weeks and I was 5lbs 4oz at 40 weeks

 

[babyslog]

Yeah she was given antibiotics sunday and asked to come bk in monday to start induction, but was already dilating and getting pains anyway xx

 

[Tigger87]

The cleaner is my luxury. £20 a week and I get an absolutely spotless house (hubby also runs around tidying first because he has a deadline), it's the best thing we ever did!! With working full time, it means my weekends are spending time with my son rather than wasting it cleaning you know? Only problem is she doesn't work school holidays. Those are sad weeks.

Mum thinks I'm going to have another large baby. She's a bit worried, haha! Madams been quite "average" sized up till now, asked mum to have a feel this morning and she said babys going the same way as Jake definitely - piling on the weight in the last few weeks!!

After feeling hopeful yesterday little Stanley had a seizure over night. He's now being tested to see if the cause of them is from being starved of oxygen or he has a medical condition which. Feel so devastated as yesterday seemed so positive

Awww hun its going to be auch a long journey for you both. I can't imagine how up and down your feeling!

I really Hope whatever outcome that it ends in good news.
If it does end up because of eing starved from oxygen, theres a lovely lady in here with a gorgeous little girl Amy Rose who unfortunately went through similar. She has a fb page for her.

I no you going to be very busy with him atm but I will send you the link to the page and im sure if you have any worries or questions she would be happy to answer anything for you hun xxx

 

[kanga86]

Sounds like it was a fab labour. I'm hoping if I am induced it goes as smoothly. Although I do worry just how quick it might be after breaking my waters as James was born just 20mins later lol

£20 isn't bad to have your whole house cleaned. I can imagine it being hard whilst working full time, I struggle with it and only worked part time!

Just walked the nursery and back for the first time in weeks as hubby is looking at my car today. It's only a 15 min walk each way (at my new unable to walk pace) and like 2 mins in the car. But my am I in agony now Not looking forward to picking him up later xx

 

[Emmam1982]

Sending lots of hugs eaw, Been wondering how he was getting on xx


I should be careful what I wish for, after worrying about movement I drank a small bottle of ice cold Coke to see if that would get him wriggling and he is now busy grinding his feet against my rib cage-owww!!

 

[kanga86]

Big hugs eaw, I can imagine it's going to be a tough road to recovery for you both. I really hope they can figure out what is the cause and help him out xx

 

[Kitten1991]

Sat in the hospital at the moment the consultant has sent me for a scan and madam is measuring nearly 39weeks!!! She's going to be huge!!! I'm panicking now!

How many weeks are you now? Scans are notoriously inaccurate so I wouldn't worry too much if it's just a couple of weeks ahead xx

 

[babyslog]

My friend had a scan a few days ago and it worked out 8.8lbs...
He was born lastnight 9lb 6.5oz lol

They r not the best at judging at all!!! That was @ 38+5 too!

 

[Emmam1982]

I've had such a good day...not done anything in particular but baby's dad came round and we went out for a drive, he's still adjusting and withdrawing from medication but omg it was like he was back to his old self-we spent 2 hours just laughing and been stupid and it's the best I've seen him since our holiday last August and I can't stop smiling.
I've now got a moaning 5 year old but even that's not stressing me like it usually would...was just so nice to have a few non stressed hours together like we used to have

 

[Emmam1982]

Cramps are coming thick and fast this afternoon...feels like the worst period pains ever combined with back ache....no regular pattern so don't think it's much to be excited about yet-typical though as my sister is on a night shift tonight and she's my lift to hospital lol x
