Ahh congratulations hun he is a smasher.
I defo felt the after pains worse this time than with Harry but my mum had warned me about it. Only lasted a few days tho n was worse when I was breastfeeding which again I had read about the uterus contracting when u feed. No pains now tho just sore town below from the stitches but all's healing ok so that's good. My problem is I keep doing to much n then feel wiped out n sore. Keep forgetting I only gave birth last week lol.
Really hope h n Kelly that u go into Labour later n have babies on the 12th!!

I am happy to go overdue now - just had a lovely letter from DWP to say that our income support claim has been cancelled due to OH getting 4 days temp work in the last month and now we have to reapply from scratch and they have cancelled our housing benefit too so rent in arrears. Really annoyed as I when I rang them 2 weeks ago to inform them about the 4 days work etc I asked if I would have to reapply from scratch after the assignment ended and they said no they would just deduct his wages earnt off our payments so we wouldn't have to worry about it. When I phoned up today to ask why it had been cancelled they said the last person I spoke to 2 weeks ago didn't have a clue what they were talking about! If I had known 2 weeks ago this would happen I could of reapplied straight away and we would be getting paid in 2 weeks as it stands we are now looking at upto 4 weeks without any income and no way to pay our rent/council tax/food etc plus we just received a £200 electric bill due immediately 
I have to go down in person to job centre on Monday and take OH's p45 to prove he only did 4 days work just what I need the day before due date. Grrrrr.
Sorry to rant ladies, just annoyed me as I purposefully asked if this would happen weeks ago and they said all would be fine and I didn't need to do anything! x

Oh Helen! I really feel for you. It seems that all these people do is penalise people who actually want to work or earn money. 4 days work was all it took for them to take everything away! It's ridiculous!
When my OH was out of work, he Did a few little jobs and they paid us all of £250 in housing benefit over 4 months! I was on maternity leave and had to pay all the bills! Then when he got back into work they wanted all the housing benefit back and also demanded council tax all upfront because payments were missed. They only deducted £9 a month on council tax so I couldn't afford to pay that aswell as everything else. To this day (2 years later) we are still catching up with the mess we were left in when he was out of work for 4 months! It's a nightmare!
I would not appreciate the stress your under at all due to this
What outrageous timing! X

Kelly, that sounds awful hun! I really don't know what the hell is wrong with these systems they have in place for claimants. It seems if you are dishonest person etc you get everything paid for no questions asked and if you try and be legitimate they make things massively stressful and over complicated x
xI am in process of having to amend that form at mo too as OH keeps changing jobs etc - just got the form yesterday and they told me to expect it to take 5 weeks to process. Very lucky really that I am organised and already have a month worth of nappies for baby and Ruby and already have formula in for baby etc so atleast that is one less worry. My Child benefit payment is due Monday too thankfully x

I was convinced id have my baby today cause every morning and night when i looked at my phone it was 9.11. Then everything that popped up seemed to be those numbers. It was really freaky!
Awe summer what an absolute wee beauty. Look at those big eyes! Congratulations again
hope you both are well and get home soon.
I bf my first feed and oh my the pain! I was so uncomfortable i wish i could have continued but she just didnt want to latch and was getting extemely frustrated... even for the first few days i would have been happy as much as i get bf'ing being natural (and i wouldnt look twice if i seen someone put doing it) i personally couldnt do it infront of visitors or when im out.
Glad to hear your healing well - i had to get stitched first time after getting cut i was terrified this time of tearing cause i heard it was more likely to happen. Thankfully i just had a slight graze. Was still stinging when i peed but thankfully passed after about 5days. Your a bit like myself you feel ok but your body is telling you different.i attempted to walk and get my lb from nursery the day after birth and i became so breathless and dizzy i had to be picked up and driven home. Think we need to learn to chill lol
Just had Emilys hearing test done and both all clear now in with the other one about his cough. Just had a chest xray now waiting on bloods to be taken... totally dreading this. I may cry more than him xx

They need to scrap it all n start again n make things simple imo.
We really do need to slow down I keep doing little jobs n then resting but I think it's still to much as I'm hurting now.

Ladies, is it possible getting past 3cm without knowing? Yesterday I was 2-3 cm at sweep, but today the pain had ramped up down there, hardly able to walk so feels like baby is literally ready to fall out lol! I wouldn't think I could get to 4 cm without knowing but is it possible? X
Well I got to 6cm with Harry without knowing anything!! I was 3cm when I got there n having contractions n who knows how long that had been for.
Defo done to much, had a nice bath now but feel very sore down there n in my back, stitches hurt as well I can feel them mote n they felt tight n horrid earlier n I bled a lot no're this arvo than the past few days. Will try n take it easy tomoz.

Take it easy Michelle hun, I did way too much the week after Ruby was born and I was so sore by end of that week it definitely took longer to heal after over doing it. Get some rest hun xx
Kelly, I really do think it is possible as I have felt like baby will fall out myself the last few days and I never had that with Ruby prior to labour, will be interested to know what dilation I am after my sweep next week! Any bloody show or cramps etc Kelly? x
I just felt the weirdest painful "ping" on my cervix, almost like a piece of elastic snapping open, super bizarre!

Oh I know what you mean Michelle, poor.Joshy will be stuck in for a little while after birth x
I had a slight more bloody show earlier, but not as much as I had Tuesday. But not much else really other than every few hours a bit of goop!
That sound weird about the ping! Did ur waters break!
Tessa, I feel a bit silly going down to ask if I'm more dilated, unless I just say the pain is getting too bad? X
