9hours at 6weeks???! I'm praying for something like this with the girls!!!
I've mentioned it before but Otto didn't sleep through until about 9/10months and then it was still hit and miss until after his 1st birthday. I think that's why I want a routine earlier on, he struggled to settle as he'd always been near us. X

I don't have any plan either for sleep, figure we will just see how it goes! Belle goes to bed at 7... Will work it all out at the time I think!

With belle I just lost plug all in one go with a lot of blood, hence being induced 2 days later.

Michelle hope Harry feels better soon, poor little man xx

 

[H16]

Awww Michelle I hope little man is better soon, horrible seeing your kids ill, such a worry!

I just re-read my old threads from around time Ruby was born to see what my symptoms were etc lol. I am so sad! Apparently I was watching Christmas films whilst my contractions were 5-10 mins apart going oh this isn't very painful! Haha! How wrong was I when I was screaming down the hospital hours later! x

 

[Kelly450]

He is very laid back and was even when I was pregnant. I highly doubt we will get that with our next baby! But you may get two amazing sleepy girls .

How did I not lose my plug? Or is it possible to lose in while in labour? My waters broke but that was all?

Just been talking to my mum about the wedding, I almost keep forgetting about it lol! It's all about baby at the moment and the pain with the pregnancy means wedding gets shoved aside a lot. Although, I did plan on this. I just wanted to book it and then not have to think about it for a few months x

 

[Kelly450]

Aww H! That's a good idea. I'm gonna do the same now haha!

I never experienced contractions that far apart! X

 

[hayes]

Thanks ladies he is sleeping but I'm sure I won't sleep much I'm so worried.

Harry slept from 9pm- 5am from 6 wks I'm sure I won't b so lucky again tho. He goes to bed now roughly 6/7 depending on his arvo nap n what we have been doing.

Kelly your plug prob went in labour without you noticing. My waters never went ~ how crazy is that? They were there when I was induced but no one can work out when they went and I certainly don't feel they did at any point. Bizarre!!

Belle was about 5 months when she started sleeping through but I wonder if that was party due to being breast fed? She always woke up for feeds but was never a bother getting back to sleep so I didn't mind x

 

[H16]

Ruby slept from 10pm - 4/5am from 7 weeks, felt so lucky at time so hoping for the same. She was formula fed though which I do think helps as you have a better idea of how much they have drank x

 

[Gillyboos]

I think I lost a tiny bit of plug but I'm not 100% with Otto, certainly nothing I felt was definite. My waters never went either, figure that one out. I asked the midwife and she said it must have happened when he came out but she didn't notice.
That's what I'm most sad about if I have a section, I really want that "oh my god my waters just went" feeling! X

 

[H16]

They had to break mine for me as I was stuck at 1cm for 2 days, it was an odd feeling and I was surprised by just how much of it there was but TBH just felt like doing 10 massive wees at once lol x

 

[Mary Poppins]

How bizarre for us gillyboos! Totally the same though with wanting to do it naturally this time. I really want to have that 'going into labour' feeling.

Am beginning to get a bit more concerned about bump/baby size now. Bump just doesn't really seem to be growing much now and next measuring app is just over 2 weeks. Nothing they can do in the mean time, but looking through pics other people seem to be much bigger x

 

[Kelly450]

Here is mine today! Excuse the photo, I'm in one of my only pairs of pj's that still fit hahaha!

I don't think mine has grown but then again I can feel it stretching x

 

[Kelly450]

This was me the evening before my waters went at 3.42am! I also have written on this thread about how I woke up the night before with backache and also had backache that day too! ( I had totally forgotten I ever had backache!) X

 

[H16]

Have they showed any concern over your measurements at previous appointments Tessa? x

 

[Mary Poppins]

Just at the last one I had grown 3cm in 5 weeks. Belle stopped growing at about 35 weeks and was only 6lb3 born at 40 weeks. Was told to expect another small one but hoping this baby isn't slowing down growth too soon.

 

[Mary Poppins]

 

[H16]

Haha Kelly that is funny! I was moaning about backache the few days before too x

 

[Kelly450]

If you are concerned then can't you get in earlier to put your mind at ease? X

Probably just "normal" for you to have small babies then but I understand the worry. How big were you at birth? I was 7lb 7oz but OH was nearly 9lb and Ruby ended up being 8lb8oz so seemed about right x

 

[Kelly450]

I think your bump looks lovely

This was mine last week when it shrunk!??

It also appears I did lose my plug and knew about it? How odd how much of labour I forgot! Hahahaha x
