Has Ree been on the last few days? Hope it was her waters that went

Seems like its good news for Ree as she hasn't been on here.

No sign of my bub yet (Boo) getting lots of B/H & a constant urge to clean! also still getting pains in my lower back from time to time but thats it.
My feet have swelled up quite a bit too but don't think thats got anything to do with labour, i'll check with my M/W tomorrow, i've got cankles, not very nice!!

Hello there ladies just checking in with ya's, only this time I'm checking in with my daughter who has finally decided to make her arrival into this world!!!! I'll post her birth story.

[nicki]

No baby yet!
Getting period type pains on & off, still got back ache, still want to clean things and still got cankles, i'm starting to look like the elephant women (feeling oh so sexy today )

 

[Yvonne]

Nicky what are Cankles???

 

[nicki]

He he, its where my ankles have merged with my calves, hence cankles!! or as my lovely husband said earlier they look more like hankles (hips merging with ankles!!)

 

[Yvonne]

oh right ha ha ha, i thought it was a real medical problem!!!

 

[nicki]

LMAO. I think it should be!!!

 

[rach]

ooh ive just looked and everyone on this list that has announced their births have had girls nicki at this rate you could be having the only boy for this month lol xxxxxxx

 

[nicki]

Rach, God i hadn't noticed all theses girls, my little man sure will have his pick :!: (lucky chap ) if he decides to grace us with his presence!

I had a horrid night sleep, well lack of sleep really. I was sooooo uncomfortable & in pain. I did actually wonder if it was all starting as I was getting quite a bit of pain that was increasing in intensity then dying off then returning , this went on for ages but then stopped at about 4 or 5 this morning.
This arvo I went to Asda & kept getting severe pains in my lower back going down into my bum cheeks (sorry!) they were taking my breath away, I said to my DH that we better hurry up just incase coz there's no way i'm giving birth in Asda!! The pains carried on for the next hour or so & have stopped completely now, getting v.annoying.

Also my LO has been really really quiet for the last 2 days. Has anyone else heard that babies rest before coming out?

[rach]

nicki apparently its quite common for baby to go quiet right before you go into labour but if your worried id give your midwife a ring just in case as they do say to report any changes in movements xxxxx

 

[nicki]

Thanks Rach, I have felt him move & have listened to his heartbeat (we got a doppler - best £60 i've ever spent!) so know he's still alive
he's just always been really active & now he's very quiet, I think he's run out of room. My belly feels like its going to rip open

 

[rach]

awww hun wont be long now any time xxxxx

 

[nicki]

Hi all,
