*****August 2014 Mummies*****

Thanks. I mentioned it to the gp and he asked if I thought it would work. I told him I have an open mind, but wasn't getting my hopes up lol. He promised they wouldn't let me go past 42 weeks - but sounded a bit clueless lol
 
I'm the same ladies baby just hasn't made any effort to make an appearance and I think she has made herself far too comfy. Need to start making it uncomfy for her so I'm breaking out the hottest Chilli Jam that our friend does. I'll steam her out!! Lol s&s next week, feels like ages. Been to work to help out this morning for 3 hours, one of the ladies gone on sick and the other is on holiday so no one to do quotes! Work are giving me an extra half day at work so that's fine by me as I get paid any holiday I haven't used by the end of the year so that will be Xmas :-) I think they appreciated me going in to be honest. And I appreciated the work as I was soooo bored at home. Feeling v crampy down low so hoping she is going to make an appearance but I know it ain't going to happen
 
Hi all! Just popping in to say I have done my birth story in the birth announcements section if anyone wants a read!......Keeping fingers crossed for you all that your LO's are very soon here- you know I understand how hard the wait is! *hugs* Look forward to news :-)
 
DH can't even clean up when the dog is sick. Imagine a placenta! And what if I poo! Haha! Nurse please!!


thread hopping.
just came to have a nosey at how you were all doing in these last weeks! got to say sax, this really made me giggle.


hope you're not too fed up :( fx - you seem to be having really promising signs! xx

oh and hoping for no2, good luck for tomorrow! xxxxx.
 
Hehe! He really is useless. You should see him when he is ill. I almost feel like I should call the priest. He is such a baby. Even for a cold, its like no cold anyone else has ever experienced and I just don't understand how poorly he is....

I will say I have fibromyalgia, ulcerative colitis, frequent migraines and I work! Now a baby on the way and also he is old fashioned in the sense that I do the house, he earns the big money. Lol.

Everything ground to a halt in the early hours and nothing since. Just period pains. I think he was engaging fully as I have a very weird shaped bump on the go and he is not kicking me now, just squirmy wriggles.
 
:rofl:
ha ha ha!

so typical.. mean baby teasing you! hopefully! fx things get started properly for you soon..
xxx
 
Thanks nds. I am not sure now. Not lost any more plug but have some discharge (lovely!) No more 'contractions' but bit pinchy and pelvis is agony so I think he has moved down some more.

DH has said he thinks he will be here on the 21st, so he might be right. He has said it from day one.
 
well, that's only tomorrow so let's hope he's right :)! xxx
 
Sax- hope your lo comes soon! Sounds like dh might just have it right! If ours hasn't come by Monday, we're going for induction (but not before one more try at a sweep tomorrow - fun times!).
 
Come on babies. I was 40 weeks yesterday. Had midwife appointment. She seemed happy with everything baby in a good position etc. I have a sweep booked in for next Tuesday if baby not here before then. No signs yet. I lost some plug at weekend but nothing else although baby feeling really low. It's really hard to walk now x
 
I am 39 weeks tomorrow and I am struggling with walking already! I dread to think how I will look if I go to 41 weeks! I have an induction booked in already at 41 weeks. I feel like I have a lead weight pulling the baby out of me! No idea if that is normal or not. I have a normal nurse appointment tomorrow to check my blood pressure. I am not sure if I can ask her any questions or not!
 
Won't do any harm in asking if you have any questions. The last week has felt really different down there and need to wee all the time. Feel like a old lady waddling around x
 
Decided to have a fondle and I can't even feel cervix :-( think it's too high still. Why do I get the feeling I'm going to have to be induced :-( really don't want to, come on baby get a move on!!
 
I tried it a few days ago too and had no luck. But I've heard that it can lower at the very last minute, so I'm not (or trying not to) worry about it. Mw is coming over tomorrow morning to give another go at doing a sweep. I think I'll have some paracetamol before she gets here lol. I've had internals before during this pg, but for some reason it was really painful yesterday. Tmi, but just her fingers being 'there' were killer. I guess if you don't use it you lose it lol.
 
Any August mummies who have had their baby experience sudden fatigue that almost floors you?

I have had crampy belly all day, severe back pain to the point of nearly collapsing under my own weight this evening, stabby pain in perineum and tight belly all day.

I just ran a bath because my back is so painful and standing/sitting was making it worse. Just lay down in the bath for 10 minutes and I fell asleep! I woke myself by sliding down the tub a bit so thought it was best to get out before I drown myself. I am laying in bed now and thinking I might just give in and go to sleep. I haven't been this tired in ages. Its like tri 1 but 10 times worse.

Is tiredness a sign? I can't even be bothered to google it to find out!
 
I'm not sure if it's a sign but I have been shattered all day. I've done nothing but chill on sofa and nap. Still yawning as I write this x
 
I know what you mean. I was supposed to do the grocery shopping, but couldn't bring myself to do it......which is worrying since I order them online lol just way too out of it.
 
I've been the same today Sax, just stared at the ironing all day, I know it needs doing I just can't bring myself to do it
 
Well I have no idea what that was last night. I slept on and off then woke up at 5:30 and was wide awake. It was just total crippling fatigue out of no where.

This morning I have loads of pressure down there. My pubic bone really hurts every time I move. I keep getting BH and period cramp. No more plug loss.

DH asked me AGAIN this morning if I was going to have the baby today. I DON'T KNOW!!!

Omg I think I had a fresh delivery of hormonal rage over night because I lost it a little bit. I know he is excited and I know he has no idea how it feels to be this pregnant. But STOP ASKING ME!!! I said I have no idea when he is coming, he will come when he is good and ready. We will have a baby within 2 weeks. That is as much as I can say. I am not allowed to go over 41 weeks, so they have booked me in for induction on Wednesday 3rd September in the evening to start the process. If he isn't here by then I have just got to go in. It is all sorted.

:roll:

He has gone off to work and told me to call if I need him. I just want labour to either start properly and have our baby, or for this stupid niggling pain and tightening to F off until it actually means something.

Lol. I think I need to put a sign on my front door today warning people and maybe switch my phone off. Haha!
