.. October 2016 Mummies - Third Trimester - Final Round ..

She's beautiful natnat well done!!

I must start listing the labour's now.

We have had Debbie, probably Nicole (yet to hear from her), Cat and Lisa is away in to have her baby today. Must start listing at the front.

It's all kicking off!! Good luck everyone.

Had my membrane sweep today cervix still high up not dialatted. Chances of going into natural labour not great. I have my induction on Wednesday. I feel deflated and disappointed. Was hoping to have dialatted abit :-(
 
Had appointment for ecv today but luckily baby had turned already when they scanned me! Felt some big movements last night so think that's when it happened! Just in the nick of time!! Back to normal care now! Xxx

My cervix wasn't favourable at all. I had two pessaries and after that labour started and my waters went and dilated myself. Fairly quick labour too.

Fx for you on Wednesday if not before then xxxx

Awk great thanks Claire! Wee babies already ahhhh!

I think things aren't going to be too long over here! Had mild contractions for a bit in my back. Like a strong period cramp in my back with a bit of ache in my thighs didnt change if i moved about or lay down. Definitely not BH which have strangely stopped over last few days. Hosp said on tues they were irregular contractions. Tonight though they started to regulate a little but died off again. I had the pains every 20 mins or so over about two hours and was getting to the point where i was thinking, f*ck is this it starting?!?the pain ws starting to move round to bottom of my bump just at end of it. But they have stopped again. Baby is engaged but no other signs! Im gonna try and get some rest and if pains start up again im going to ring hosp, im still only 36 weeks! Also tmi, ive had loose poos last few days and have felt a bit sick again. Ahh im not sure though if this is just soms practice runs! I hope i don't have to go through weeks of this. All fun and games girls!
 
Just a few hours away from my Csection and absolutely terrified. Really don't want to go through it. Hate feeling like things are out of my control and despite my friends trying to reassure me when I was told I would have to have a section, ultimately things are completely out of my control and I literally will be doing nothing towards having the baby. I'm worried I'll pass out or not bond with the baby, that I won't be able to keep still for the spinal, that I'll freak out when I can't move and they put the baby on me...
I'm just feeling really down and sorry for myself this morning. :( People keep asking me if I'm excited, but that's the very last emotion on my list. Can't wait for it to be over.

All the best Moo hope it all goes well for you. I am sure when you hold baby in your arms you will bond instantly x x

Try not to put too much pressure on yourself hunni. It will be the fear of unknown getting you worked up. I feel with a section they are at least able to talk you through procedure and when and how were as anything goes with a natural.

They won't do anything your not ready for. Jackson was placed on me and I didn't feel stable so I passed him to OH till I was stable and ready.

You might not bond with baby right away. Alot of people mostly FTMs expect this wave of emotion which you do get but actually bonding with baby comes in the coming days through skin/skin, feeding and time with baby. You will probably be tired, a bit groggy and just feel like a rest and that's fine. It's a well known fact ladies don't bond with their babies right away. They feel pride etc yes because youv waited so long to meet baba and youv got them there the safest way. Be proud.

Try to keep an open mind and go with the flow. The rest will follow in time. Good luck xxxx

Good luck today Moo. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. You may not be 'pushing' this baby out but you have done everything else. I'm having a section and I am starting to get nervous. I had an emergency section with my first and the feelings of fear, disappointment and everything else just goes away and you have this beautiful baby in your arms. Don't worry if it doesn't happen immediately, you will bond with your baby in your own time xxx
