I can't run either, I'm in so much pain when walking.
Feel completely exhausted this morning James was up at 6 rather than 7 and I'm beat already. Just dropped Harry at nursery and collapsed on the sofa. Hoping James wants a nice early and long nap today as I need one too xx

Noah woke at 6 too kanga.

I didnt nod off till gone midnight tho and alao woke twice for a week between then and 6. Im shattered!!!

 

[babyslog]

38wks today thooooooo eeeek x

 

[Tigger87]

Worst. Mood. EVER today. I've nearly cried in work because a client swore at me. I've nearly shouted at an old lady in work because she seems to feel entitled to an opinion on how I birth my child. I actually think I want to stab someone with a rusty fork to make me feel better!!!!

Sorry, as you were!

 

[Kitten1991]

I was induced about 11:30, I was already at 1cm and had lost my show so the MW was shocked and pleased!!

The pesserie is in still and I can feel it all changing but apparently am just following in my mums footsteps and sleeping

Good luck-hope things get moving soon.

My sister was struggling to walk with severe spd but still managed to run-amazing what determination did for her lol x

 

[babyslog]

Ergh tigger what a twat!!!!!! Whens mat leave starting hun!?


Hope things pick up soon for u kitten! Excited for the next baba to be born yay!!! X

 

[Emmam1982]

Well tonight the littlies are going to their dads for the first time in 3 weeks, because I've finally got some spare cash I'm gonna treat myself to a nice take away to take my mind off everything, I've got back ache coming on n off today but think it's probably positional as he is really low-it feels like my pelvis has widened (if that's even possible) X

 

[babyslog]

Ive had backache all day too Em, i think now hea turned and 3/5th engaged gravity is taking over and everything is geting all achey.
Mines just a constant dull ache so just trying to ignore it. PGP has started to flare up alot more too now DD is drawing closer argh!

I

 

[jenni16]

Just had mw apt - they think she's breech typical!! Got a scan booked to check her position on Tuesday afternoon. I had two midwives have a good feel today and we're both pretty sure she's beech, with her head stuck under my ribs which would explain the pain I've been getting in my ribs.
So scan Tuesday, and possible ecv Thursday if definitely breech, with possible section :-/
So hoping she turns like Charlie did for you Dani!
Xxx

 

[babyslog]

Aww Jen nooooo!!!!!
Well Noah was wedges under my right rib and footling breech with his feet right down in my pelvis and his bum engaged and still managed to get bk out and turn! I still dont know exactly when in te last week since the scan he did that haha!
It worries me incase he turns back and i dnt know!

Hope she turns hun!! If not fx the ecv works! I was 36wks when charlie was found breech and then turn between then and now so theres still chance!

Keep us updated!


Im seeing Mw next 39+6. Cancelled her app next week as i saw her last week and the mws up the hosp did checks yesterday while i was there for ecv.. So seems pointless seeing her next week.
Also hoping st 39+6 if ive not had him shell
Do a sweep lol!
The ones here dnt like doing them before ur due date. Im bk on the RLT and EPO now too so by then id like to hope its helped my cervix lol! X

 

[jenni16]

I did wonder if her being quiet at the weekend might have had anything to do with it....I seem to be feeling all different movements since then so wondered if she'd moved. I've dropped loads this week, but still feel really full up in my ribs so would explain it all I guess. Currently googling ways to get her to move! Lol
Sounds really selfish, but it's definitely something we could do without (possibly having a c-section). I don't mind the thought of a section itself, but I'm half an hour away from all family so no one is easily on hand to help out day to day while I'm potentially out of action for up to 6 weeks. And with hopefully moving soon too, it's just all extra stress and worry.

Ooh hope they can give you a sweep then They don't offer them here until 40+7, hoping she's here way before then!
Xxx

 

[babyslog]

i didnt really try muxh! Jjst had this what will be will be attitude! Even tho i really didnt want a section and it wouldnt of helped matters woth a toddler and being single!
But i just thought if he turns great, of ecv works, great!

And low and behold he did it himself!! Lol xx

 

[jenni16]

My mum's on the phone to me trying to talk me out of an ecv and suggesting acupuncture instead!
I'm usually of the same sort of attitude, but could really do without such a big op while trying to move house, such bad timing haha.
Xxx

 

[babyslog]

Ppl suggested that to me too! Aswell as reflexology! But i wasnt paying for someone to try ways lol!

The ECV even tho has low risks i was a bit nervous for.. I had to being my hosp bags with me and its preformed on our delivery suite next to the emergency theatre! I was worries he would get destressed due to his position on the scan n the wcv failing.
But the little bugger turned anyway ahaha!

Hope she has a little wiggle on hun xx

 

[jenni16]

I know, I'm a tight arse so won't be paying for it either haha!

I'm just reading up on some of the risks now. We watched a video of one on YouTube too - makes me very nervous! I think I'd rather the c-section than that!

Oh god. Scary but I guess at least you're all prepared and in the right place.

I think I'll be spending the next few days with my bum in the air to try and get her the right way. Xxx

 

[babyslog]

Ive watched loads of vids too! Some women didnt even twitch their mouth with any pain lol! Then some ive seen looked so painful!!! But they seem to be the ones that dnt work, so maybe of baby is in an ok breech position then its just uncomfortable.

Read about the muscle relaxer too u have beforehand.
But yeaterday the mw was like no we dnt give that u just have g&a lol! I was looking forward to that bit!!!

 

[kanga86]

Well James didn't nap long but I did manage 30mins and probably feel worse for it. All groggy and grumpy now.

Yay for 38 weeks babyslog

Oh no tigger, I hope the rest of the day is ok. I hate how people interfere with your birth choice. I've had nothing but negative views on home birth.

Kitten get as much rest as you can before labour kicks off, sounding good though.

Enjoy your takeaway emmam, and the relax from the littlens.

I hope baby isn't breech Jenni or if she is that she moves for you and you don't need an ecv.

I've just put my birth pool up for sale on the fb group I got it from Feel as though as much as I would still love a homebirth that I just don't want to risk it even if baby has gained weight (highly unlikely in my opinion). So I just need the pool gone now as it is sat in my bedroom taunting me. Never did I think in this pregnancy I would be swayed from the home birth, but I just feel as though there are far too many risk factors involved now xx

 

[babyslog]

Aw kanga even tho ive had the all clear now to have one if i still want, same as u ive just had a complete U turn on the idea.

My mum really didnt want me to have one either but kept that to herself until the other day lol. The boys dad didnt want me to either even tho he isnt going to be here, he said he would just worry so much. So knowing they were pretending to back up my homebirth was a bit MEHH! Lol

Hope u manage to sell it and for a good price too! Xx
