*** June 2015 Mummies ***

Hi everyone! Feels like long time no speak!

I had a baby girl!!! <333333

Started having contractions around half 2 Saturday morning, which faded to nothing by 6am, they started up again at 5.30pm and took me all the way through. I felt I was coping well at home with my tens but MIL and OH insisted I went to be checked at hospital, 50 min drive only to be sent home as I was 2cm. Contractions ramped up when we got back home and three hours later we drove back again, was now 4cm so they admitted me to the Midwife unit. Was lucky enough to have use of the only pool, which was amazing, as soon as I got in there my waters broke, I started on the gas and air as I couldn't hold it together anymore, and a couple of hours later she arrived! And on Sunday, my due date! Unfortunately we are still in hospital as I got a 3rd degree tear, hoping to get home tomorrow. Cannot believe we have a little girl, she's such a sweetie. 6lb 7oz, born Sunday 14/06/15 at 19.55. I am in love!

Have quickly skimmed through the posts I've missed, good luck to those in labour, such exciting times ahead! Xx
 
Here she is! Currently nameless, we were pretty much set on calling a girl Martha, but not sure it fits :/ xx

Wonderful news Berthy, she's gorgeous and that babygrow is mega cute.

I am hopeful there will be another baby boom tomorrow - it's my Birthday so I'm sending all my vibes ;).

It's funny because I feel like I really don't need anything for my Birthday and then DH came home and said "I know I should have got you a present but I've seen some garden furniture and I thought that would be a better investment" how rude!! What he should have said was "I know you're really keen to sit outside with the baby so I bought some garden furniture for your Birthday" - I would have bought that excuse, men! x
 
Congratulations Bethy :-)

Happy birthday for tomorrow Belfa.

I had a couple of hours of feeling awful this evening, was getting pains coming in waves and feeling sick but it felt more like the sort of pains you get when you've got a tummy bug/food poisoning rather than contractions. It's all died down again now so not sure what it was about! Did make me realise I'm crapping myself about giving birth again though! I'm still two weeks away from my due date and don't feel mentally prepared at all!
 
Yay congrats bethy!! Amazing she arrived on your due date!!
She's beautiful, love her hair!! :)

Can't believe Hayden is nearly a week old already! It goes so fast!!! He's off to meet his great grandad tomorrow who is the one in hospital, who we gave his middle name to Hayden :) so excited for him to meet him!!

Come on the rest of the June babies, your mummies are ready and it's getting to warm out now for them to cope being overdue so be kind and arrive little ones! ;)

Congrats bethy. Gorgeous.

Well I'm still waiting just been examined after 48 hours in and still not dilated enough to pop my waters... The only positive is I've started getting some plug coming so hoping that means something. Getting lower back pain, intense period style pains and regular tightenings... That's all though. If baby decides to come tomorrow it's our nieces 10th birthday so cousins would share lol. Hope everyone doing ok.

Happy birthday Belfa x
 
Baby Logan was born at 14.02 on 15th June weighing 9lb 3oz (yup!!) by emergency c-section after a very long three day induction! I got dilated to 10cm, had went through two epidural top ups and pushed for an hour once dilated only for the Dr to examine me and say he wasn't coming down. By this point I'd been on labour ward for almost 24 hours so I was happy to get a section!

Totally in love!

Hope you are getting on well Lucy!

Massive congrats to heybabya and bethy. 2 gorgeous babies.

Im now 2 days over due lost plug last night and had mild cramps since so fingers crossed its the start of something. I thought i had a sweep booked for today but its actually Friday.

Good luck everyone.
 
My plug started to break away this Morning and since I've been for a long walk over reigate with dh (a lot of stop and starting) and gave infrequent pains since. Quite exhausted now so having a lie down on the bed. If nothing happens b tonight I'm going to email my induction midwife to ask for a pessary to help things along. My back has started to twinge x

Aww thanks! It's was in a pack of three from next. I'm obsessed with their baby clothes lol. So glad I can start gender specific clothes shopping now! Xx
 
Well ladies, day 4 and still waiting... just had 4th pessary. Got tiny bit of plug coming away, backache in waves and period pains still. Hoping tonight things kick off otherwise option 1 is day off and start again which I can't face doing again or c section. Hopefully more will happen overnight... send me some labour thoughts ladies xxx

Good luck everyone else xxx
