Thought it was time we had a new home, seeing as we've almost outgrown the old one. So in honour to Scorpio, Sybil, BB and toomuch (hope I didn't forget anyone ) here we are - in the company of pregnant (and cheerful) ladies

Congratulations Scorpio, that's fantastic news! She is a really healthy weight too so well done you! Hope you have your feet up today resting, let us know how the birth went!

millie born at 7.20pm last night after 5 hour labour. 8lb 9oz, and i breastfed!

Looks as if I'm in for a fun w/e. Ds asked to go to bed at 6.40 - with a temperature and having had very little supper, and saying he felt sick. Ds returns home 10mins later saying he wasn't feeling well....

Isn't fresh pineapple meant to bring baby along? And er... semen?

Scorpio - sorry about the scare with raised heartbeat but glad all ok. She's probably just preparing herself for the noise and chaos that a household of males will bring Getting a bit of peace whilst she can

ooh yes a bumpy ride in DH van would be fun, we could go sand-duning in it, lol!!

PiggyPenguin · 18/04/2008 11:50

Oh god no, not bumpy roads. I remember dh doing this to me when I was pg with dc2 and having that head bounce up and down in your pelvis is agony! In the end I think I threatened him with actual violence if he didn't find a better road.

Have you got a birthing ball? Bouncing on one of those will be less painful but may have the same effect - and they get the baby in the right position to birth. Girls, they are just so much more stubborn!

Will maybe have Indian tomorrow night. We are getting sky on Saturday so that will pass the time, lol!

toomuchtimeonline · 17/04/2008 10:01

Enjoy the shopping Scorpio (and love the name change by the way )

Whispers.. Ready.. let us know how you get on

Everyone else - big wave!

PiggyPenguin · 17/04/2008 10:00

Scorpio, the waiting is driving us all mad, I can't imagine how bad it is for you! I am sure she will come before the induction date, especially as your cervix is already soft. Have you tried eating something that is reasonably hot and ahem, 'clears you out' to not put too fine a point on it. I had a scrummy jambala the night dd was born, I spent about 30 minutes on the toilet after and she was born a few hours after that, I sure it had an impact!

mistlethrush · 17/04/2008 09:43

Have a good day Scorpio. Perhaps, if you can get somewhere where it would be really inconvenient it Millie decided to start coming she might decide that the time is right! Happy shopping, but don't do too much.

scorpiohasstillnothadbaby · 17/04/2008 09:31

i have a child free day today again so am going to pop into town, but then take it easy. Have decided DH can take from Monday off if no baby yet.

Hope you are ok Scorpio?

I love porridge... but I don't have a microwave (we gave ours away as it was just a waste of electricity having it sitting there telling the time and nothing else) so I have to do it the old fashioned way... have to say, it's scrummier that way. But I would say that, wouldn't I!

have emailed Zooper

scorpio1 · 16/04/2008 17:01

i don't know why it was high, CTG showed alot of BH so maybe that was it, also my BP was raised, lots of factors really. I'm ok-ish now htough, feel today.

toomuchtimeonline · 16/04/2008 16:59

Oh Scorpio ((hugs)) - glad everything is ok but hope Millie makes an appearance soon!

mistlethrush · 16/04/2008 16:33

(Why can't I wait until I've said everything before pressing 'post'! )
