[Lucyboo]

Thanks buggy, it seems to feel worse in little waves. Just wish I could eat. Had quite a few tightening when monitoring bubba's movement. They are going to get the community midwife to swing by tomorrow anyway and check me over unless I feel worse in the night.

Merlin congratulations, glad you are both well.

Bubblegum glad you got a date for your C section.

 

[babyscotcher]

Congratulations Merlin. X

 

[Coletteypie]

Congrats Merlin!! Sounds like you did a great job !

Aww Lucy that sucks. You don't sound well at all. Hopefully just a wee bug that will pass

Oh totally buggy, I am so ready for baby to appear too. I got cuddles from the beautiful wee newborn today - she is just over 7lbs after losing a wee bit of weight since being born last week. I got all emotional holding her, just wanted to eat her up! Hopefully I released some oxytocin from the encounter haha!!!

 

[buggy1]

I tried that when I was pregnant with dd. Made me cry too! Didn't stop her being late though lol

 

[KellyC89]

Congratulations Merlin! Well done

 

[Ionaprie]

Congratulations Merlin, a precious daughter Well done, all over now and worth every ache and worry I'm sure!?x

 

[Bethyboo87]

Hi everyone, not been on at all the past few days as we finally moved out! Been so busy it's ridiculous. Pretty sure I've started to lose my plug too, so excited to see that things are heading the right way! Except for the fact that MIL keeps going in to us (we're staying in their holiday let) to put our washing on, and my knickers aren't looking particularly pretty at the mo.... she's only trying to help but wish she'd stop rooting through our dirty washing lol! It's embarrassing :/

Congrats Merlin! Was wondering if anyone else might have popped over the last couple of days. Won't be long now girls! X

 

[TashaWink]

Congrats merlin! (I'm supposed to be next)

Hope everyone is doing well xx

 

[Belfa]

Congratulations Merlin!

That's embarrassing Bethyboo, when we moved out of my parents my mum took a fit at some stuff we were coming back for and so she packed it up - it was all my TTC stuff so lube, vitamins, ovulation tests, horrifying!

DH is away tonight so I went over to my in laws for dinner and to see my SIL and her kids as they live abroad - our niece is 8months and we've never met her. All through dinner all anyone would talk about is how hard it is and how we won't have a life anymore. Why do people keep going on and on like that, it's a bit late now! x

 

[Heres Hoping]

Congratulations Merlin, hope you are both doing well. Enjoy the cuddles...im not jealous at all lol

Ive been up since 5 this morning, no pains unfortunately just cant sleep at all. Feel really restless so up now eating cereal while the whole house sleeps. Arghhhh im so ready to have this baby...getting really fed up now of waiting for something to happen. Why do sweeps have to get your hopes up!!

Any way moan over....whos gonna be our next june mama?? Its the last day of May!!

 

[Coletteypie]

Not gonna be me I suspect ! Baby was totally out of my pelvis yday, lying diagonally across my tummy. Think I've managed to shift them back overnight through strategic pillow use. I'm never going to go into labour if they aren't engaged!!! How can this monkey get in and out of my pelvis so easily!!!!!

I really wanted birthday of 1st June as well. Would have been a goodie. Ach well.

It really makes life hard when everyone keeps saying to me - oh you've dropped, you'll never see your due date etc. well, due date is in 4 days - fair to say I'll be close if not overdue now! Grrrrrr is making me impatient.

Haha yes belfa, folk are so annoying when they tell you that. It's like - I have a full term baby in my tummy - I don't have many options at this point haha! And I love the chat of MIL packing your TTC stuff - hilarious and soooo mortifying!! Same to bethyboo - I would go off my nut if MIL was going through my washing and touching my pants!!! I know they are trying to help.... But no. I'd rather have a pant emergency than my in law washing my undies !

 

[Coletteypie]

Oh and happy due date tasha!!

 

[buggy1]

Everyone has been saying to me for weeks how low bump is and I'll never get to due date so i know how you feel coletteypie!

Nothing new to report here.

I was the same as you yesterday HH, woke up at 4 and couldn't get back to sleep! Had a better night last night

 

[lalaroo]

Congratz Merlin! I'm not going to lie, I'm feeling a little jealous this morning as Merlin and babyscotcher were due the same date as me and they both have their bundle of joy already!
Definitely no real signs of my baby being ready to come out yet despite night after night of spicy food, a whole pineapple a day, copious amounts of raspberry leaf tea and bouncing on my exercise ball. I just pray she comes on or before her due date as my OH risks not being here for the birth of his first child!

I'm also pretty angry at my hospital. My midwife told me that after Monday the 25th, if I had any problems then I had to phone my Birth Centre. Two nights ago I had some bleeding and I rang up asking if I should come in, when they asked how far I was (which was 37+4) and she patched me back through to Triage where the woman told me not to bother coming in as I wasn't far along enough for it to be a concern

Sorry for the little rant, I'm just a very impatient person and the wait is really getting to me.

 

[buggy1]

Really? I thought it was after 24 or 28 weeks? Especially something like bleeding!

 

[merlin]

Lalaroo I had my bleeding, I was 37 + 4 called triage and they told me to come in. Which we did had overnight stay.....This all led to birth of baby. I am surprised you were told not to worry about going in!

 

[Pismo]

Belfa - Argh! I cringed hard at the idea of MIL/My mother finding that kind of stuff. I still get a little embarrassed about being pregnant because people KNOW for certain that me and OH 'do it' I sound like such a prude. Also, having babies really isn't that bad - they don't have to change your life forever. Its really annoying us at the moment because even though we have an eight year old already people still keep saying things like 'you wont know what's hit you' - This from MIL!! Grrrr.

Coletteypie - Totally convinced myself that I would go into labour last night, imagine the mood I am in now as I am still very much pregnant with not a hint of labour beginning!! Soooo fed up I could cry. You feeling the same?

Lalaroo - If still worried ring them up and TELL them your coming in. I think its completely reasonable to be worried at this stage if you experience bleeding. They are idiots!

[Coletteypie]

Totally Pismo. I'm feeling really anxious actually. I've told my mum and sister off for constantly asking me if any sign yet. I'm not even at my freakin due date! Everyone has built me up to think ill go early and it's not happening so am just over analysing every single twinge.

I leaned on my ball for ages, knees on floor and think I managed to get baby's head engaged again. Am gonna go out a walk even if horrible weather and see if baby bouncing on my cervix helps do anything.

Sob sob this bit is so hard. Just want baby here safe!

 

[Lucyboo]

Hi ladies, quick update, midwife came by this morning to check me over as still felt poop anyway BP all fine but done a urine sample, never seen it that colour, it was dark orange and showed signs of protein, she reckons could be a UTI and to up my fluids and send off my sample. Headache still lingering but not unbearable. I've lost 4lb since Friday just from not being able to eat.

Hope the rest of you are ok, I'll read the other posts properly later, can't believe it's actually June tomorrow, x

 

[buggy1]

Oh dear Lucy. Do you have to stay in?

I've had a headache every day (mid morning) for the last five days!
