Hurrah - hurry up babybarbie, don't be too difficult for your mummy!

Hope he arrives quickly and as painlessly as possible, barbie ps I've tried all the drugs and they are mostly good, especially the epidural!

PS neeko - you're next!

Will post more later but just wanted to let Barbie know that there is someone here!

barbie1 · 21/02/2010 08:57

ps thanks gracie

broadcasting live from the delievery room in dubai

ouch!!!!!

Just to let you all know came in last night, baby fine but very active...they called my doctor who said just to keep me in

Had water broken (not that bad) but then baby freaked out and heartbeat went way too high finally calmed down and now sat wired to monitor and drip to start contractions...which are starting and hurting!

So with any luck tonight ill be a mummy....might not be on here for a while but ill text and update as and when i can...

Just finished feeding Isabelle again. No news from Barbie. Hello Sabs.

Sabs1981 · 21/02/2010 00:28

Hey barbie i'm also up for a little while but posting from my phone so not the best of posts. Your situation is kind of reminding me of the night i went into labour. I started leaking what i thought was fluid and couldn't sleep. I think i just watched bbc news! I know how sad!When we called the labour ward they told us to go in. But when i got checked out they said it was thick discharge but i think when the midwife examined me she involuntarily gave me a sweep. They then sent me home and that's when the contractions started! I think i was due to go in the next day anyway to talk about being induced so i was happy that it started naturally. So here's hoping that happens for you too! Hi to gracie too. What's isabelle doing?

GracieGirl · 20/02/2010 23:39

Barbie Text me during the night if you need a chat, I'll be up.

GracieGirl · 20/02/2010 23:37

Barbie I'm up. I don't sleep any more!

barbie1 · 20/02/2010 23:19

Its 3.15pm here any one awake????

babybarbie has been keeping me awake for the last few hours, wont stop moving Had a few pains too and my back ache is worse.....Never really had much of a disturbed night sleep in this pregnancy.

The movements cause me to call the labour ward, i remember reading on hear that any changes in movement, more or less to call.

So im sat here eating haribo snakes and drinking juice on the orders of the midwife...i have to see what happens in a hour and call them back. I guess they are thinking i havent had enough sugar today???

Im scared keep thinking the baby is in distress or something?

Ill update you all later..

Neeko · 20/02/2010 21:43

Poor Ajay If his nose gets blocked, invest in one of those Karvol plug ins. They are great. Remember to raise his cot matress slightly at the head end too. Hope you alll get some sleep tonight.

VJay · 20/02/2010 17:26

See how he gets on but have some calpol in just in case

Sabs1981 · 20/02/2010 16:44

at ajay having a cold

Are you going to give him something for it or hope it clears up on its own?

at hoover!

VJay · 20/02/2010 16:34

Hiya Ajay has a cold .

sabs love your hover thingy too , I wrote hoover thingy first time

Sabs1981 · 20/02/2010 15:52

I done the hover status thingie too

Sabs1981 · 20/02/2010 15:43

Yay to neeko being on maternity leave! And possibly until December

vjay let us know how you get on with ajay at the out-of-hours. I remember going to my local when saara got a cold at 2 weeks. My parents thought we were typical OTT first time parents but the doctor said they would rather see parents who care too much than parents who care too less

Loving your tag thingie

VJay · 20/02/2010 15:29

Will do neeko

VJay · 20/02/2010 15:29

Yay I've been waiting for someone to see it , just go to your registration details you can add it on there

Neeko · 20/02/2010 15:28

Hope Ajay is ok. Give him a medicinal kiss from me.

Neeko · 20/02/2010 15:27

Vjay Love it!

VJay · 20/02/2010 15:17

Yay to neeko being on mat leave

Hover over my name

VJay · 20/02/2010 15:16

I am lurking here, Ajay is a bit poorly, I'm off to the out of hours with him at 4, he has a cough and has been very sleepy today, it's probably nothing but want to get it checked.

Hi sabs I was so excited last night for Eastenders and thought the whole thing was great , was shocked at it being Stacey

Yes 4ever I am home again now, and busy painting the kitchen.

barbie any sign of babybarbie yet?

Need to go and change out of my paint splattered clothes

Neeko · 20/02/2010 15:14

Hello lovelies! I'm now officially on maternity leave (possibly until December )

Barbie Hope by mow you've ruined those white trousers

Sabs Lovely to hear from you and that you're throwing yourself into all things mummy with gusto.

Blue Didn't manage a heel click, in fact when the time came I was a little reluctant to leave I'm such a control freak that I have difficulty believing that anyone would care for my classes as well as I would. The fact that there has been no cover teacher organised also makes me Hope you made that call about B's christening today.

4ever Hope you're over your weeble for a wee while. Won't be long til your next scan. I'm sure all will be fine.

MLS squeezing very tightly to your hand for Wednesday and will be staring at my phone until you text me.

MrsKate Hope your last 3 shifts go smoothly and quickly.

Annie Glad the sleep thing is settling down. You sound like a different woman than you did the other week. I'm having little panics about a non-sleeper as on reflection DD was such a good baby.

My DH got some of the baby stuff out the loft (finally) last night. The cot is now up and the stickarounds on the walls so it's beginning to look like we're having a baby! i've done loads of baby washing today and shocked myself at how small things are. Loving the gorgeous hand knit cardigans that DD had. Think a baby really looks like a baby in a hand knit.

Love to everyone else.

Sabs1981 · 20/02/2010 13:58

Hello ladies, I hope everyones well. It has been quiet on here recently. Hope everyone's busy in a good way

Barbie, I cant believe that you only have to wait 2 days! I am sooo excited for you! I really hope everything goes well for you. I can't wait to hear your birth story I'll be lurking all day on Monday. You should have my number if you received gracie's email if you want another number to notify

mrskate Happy for you that you finish work soon! You have been working way too hard!

blue I also watched 1 born every minute. I have to say before I had Saara I used to spend many morning watching anything related to giving birth and having babies, especially on the home and health channel I thought it would really scare me but I think it just prepared me. I dont know why I'm still watching now though!

4ever sorry to hear you've been weebling. Hope you're feeling better now. Belated happy birthday to mr 4ever and will be lurking on Tuesday to hear about your scan

mls hope your having a nice time at your parents

vjay I also am normally always logged in but also had problems with the pages etc this week. ajay looks sooo cute in his christening outfit

cupcake I absolutely love your bump pic Hoping that you find a new place soon

annie good to hear DS2 is sleeping better now. Everyone's said to me that once Saara starts teething her lovely sleep pattern will change so not looking forward to that

iggy sorry for not responding back to your fb email . I had lots of people asking if they could touch my bump. Not sure how I wouldve reacted if they just came and touched it without permission!

neeko have you finished work yet!

curly nice to 'see' you. Your post about loving curlygirl made me go awwwww

moon hoping that TEW has stayed away

mermaid hope the anniversary dinner went well

gracie another one who's jealous of your birth story but sorry to hear about the problems after. Still waiting for photos. You too curly !

Sabs waves to buddha mm lionstar scamper jools baking monkey lbm and as always sorry if ive missed any major news I did write a long post last weekend but Saara's rolling around everywhere and me going after her made me somehow lose the post

I was sooo excited about yesterday's live Eastenders episode, I even dreamt about it the night before (I know how sad!) It didnt disappoint and I wasnt expecting it to be Stacey. Poor Bradders though

I went to the Sanctuary spa with my mum and sister on Wednesday, it was lovely, but the first time I had left Saara for such a long time - 6 hours! We're also leaving her tonight but with my mum and sister. Have a date night with DH. Finally going to watch Avatar - we must be the only people in the world it seems who havent watched it. Then tomorrow we're going to the Baby Show, and taking Saara with us, so that should be interesting! Also hoping to start baby yoga next week.

Best be off - Saara's woken from her nap

barbie1 · 20/02/2010 11:52

arggghhhh just lost a long post i had written

No time to re write....just wanted to say im still here and will get around to emailing the emmsys email addresss this evening some time. Also someone text me yesterday but i dont know who is was I will also text that person back in a minute

I have been in bed most of the day, very very tired and a sore lower back...prehapes its a sign

Of now to watch england play cricket with the hubby, im indulging him in what he wants to do....cos it aint going to be like this for a very long time

Decided to wear white linen trousers, cos its sods law my waters will break

I will be back tomorrow for a much longer post, and for self indulgent hair strokes, hand holding and mini eggs, im as nervous as hell!

Tis very quiet here today, are you all still reeling from eastenders last night

Hope you are all well, have a good weekend xx

MrsKate · 19/02/2010 16:36

iggypiggy · 19/02/2010 14:08

gracie Interesting - thanks! I am definitely thinking of hypnobirthing blue as have read positive reports form people on here. I was thinking it might be worth looking into, in case it does help?

cupcake you should def buy some baby stuff

annie hearing that about your contractions makes me feel less scared too... am in no doubt that it will be painful - but I think the more positive an attitude I have then better!
