Because he's so big and may not fit his original coming home outfit, I bought the 3 piece one. Also got the all in one, but have so many for 0-3 months, so got it in 3-6 months. Loving the robots.

 

[Eryinera]

Aww so cute!!!

 

[nikkix86]

aw kabuk they are lovely! my bh are like a few minutes apart not that painful tho just really uncomfortable and ive got really bad backache when i get them. going to have a soak in the bath and see if that helps

 

[Pebbles05]

I'm getting a bit concerned that we haven't heard from Snowbee in a while. I hope everything is OK.

Lisey it sounds like things are starting to get going for you. Fingers crossed it progresses soon.

Nikki, regular braxton hicks might actually be the real thing! Exciting!

 

[nikkix86]

i thought they would be painful though and they are more uncomfortable. ive never been in labour before. bath hasnt helped going to get into bed in a minute.

im worried about snowbee too its been a.few days now

 

[Emily0505]

I really thought Snowbee would have updated by now too.

Maybe she's had to stay in hospital for a couple of days and doesn't have access online?

Hope everything is OK with her and baby.

I remember her saying she doesn't have a smartphone so she probably can't access the forum from hosp. Really hope everything is OK, can't wait for an update! Xx

 

[Eryinera]

Yea she probably won't have access to online.

Nikki at the start mine weren't painful. I'm experiencing similar.. but I think it's a former of pre-labour or false labour. If they are irregular and lasting only a few seconds without intensifying or getting closer together it sounds like you're body is "practicing" basically at night your adrenaline levels drop and your uterus becomes more sysesptable to oxytocin (the stuff that makes you horny lol so get it on if you want labour to hurry up) if you don't make enough oxytocin to kick start labour in the morning when your adrenaline rises again things should stop. If it doesn't stop in the am then labour is probably not long away at all!!

 

[Eryinera]

Yep mine have all stopped now lol had a dream she was born 9lb 2! And I called her Micheal wtf?! Lol

 

[Dovekie]

I went to school with a girl called Michael

I went for tea with my boyfriend's family last night. His niece is 3 and she is fascinated by me. She just kept repeating "you have a baby in your belly" whilst patting it. I have this affect on kids - they just latch on to me. Hopefully my own kid will be as easy to impress!

 

[Dovekie]

Thanks for the breastfeeding info ladies!

 

[Eryinera]

Lol crazy! And hope the meal went well. I'm sure you'll be a grand mum

 

[Dovekie]

I have the medela swing and it's fab also got the medela bottle warmer for a fiver off eBay got an electric steam steriliser a Phillips advent one and it's so easy and quick!

Can you put any bottle brands in that steamer?

 

[nikkix86]

it always stops when i go to sleep lol they did get quite intense tho at one point lol so baby is still very comfy

 

[lisey]

I feel better today. I think bubs will stay until induction day xx

 

[Emily0505]

Sounds as though your body is getting ready though hun! Exciting!

Well I've had a teeny amount of spotting this morning when I woke up. Got MW later so I'll see what she says and contact triage from there if I need to.

I really hope it's my cervix changing for labour but I reckon it's my stupid varicose veins!

Baby has been moving well this morning so that's reassuring.

[Eryinera]

It sounds as if a lot if us are showing signs our bodies are getting close. I'm. Slightly concerned about my next 4 days at work. I've been getting mild contraction feelings on and off the past 2 days. My waters are going to break at work aren't they lol

 

[nikkix86]

im still keeping hope i might beat my section date but at the same time my boys didnt come early lol shes got 12 more days lol

 

[Eryinera]

Yea I'm not hopeful she will come early but it would be nice.

It's guardians of the galaxy day so if she makes her arrival today she's getting Gamora or Nebula as a middle name lol

 

[lisey]

I had a little more show today. Nothing compared to what I had with son, the whole thing came out in one go. Hideous!!

Hope midwife goes well Emily and hope bubs stays put for guardians of the galaxy ery.

Hope little miss comes before section date Nikki xx
