Last chat thread for October 2010 babies until we head into POST-natal.

Stats

Congrat meansbeans sounds like a great labour. Enjoy your daughter and what a lovely name

Tyson glad things went ok with your sister and hope you can manage to work things out.

Ilgh when I had dodgy tummy mw told me baby would be fine if I didn't eat for up to 48 hours as long as I kept my blood sugar up with drinks like sprite. Hope u feel better

Had day decorating yesterday. Got the nursery and stairs and landing painted so feeling more positive and hope we can make as much progress today

ILGH How did the scan go?

Jenimoo How you feeling?

Abfab Some people don't actually feel their braxton hicks. I'm sure if you're worried though you can have a quick word with the midwife.

Hope everyone else is well this morning.

35+6

I think my waters are leaking now, just had to change knickers and put pad in and didn't smell like pee. Better start timing properly I think...

jennimoo ope everything goes ok, sounds positive though x

Hope!

jennimoo ooh sounds like something is happening. Check in with the hosp just in case as I think you are still earlyish?

meanbeans I am so looking Forward to bfeeding!

Yesterday at friends house her baby kept crawling down my chest & pecking , think she could smell milk as she didn't do it on dh

Contractions varied amounts apart (4-10mins) but getting more painful. Will call in a bit I think. I am 38+5 so not really early. Having hb and dh not sure when to start filling the pool now!

Ah thats ok then, I've mixed you up with someone at 36 weeks

Better get the pool ready for when you need it for pain relief. Warm water was lovely I remember from last time!

Also we love a live birth thread

Jennimoo, get filling the pool! So exciting!

Scan was really good, placenta is actually still up high and dd is still a dd. She is 2.3kg right now and doc reckons around 3kg at term. Lovely.

Good luck for today if this is it, jennimoo!

meansbeans, glad Miss SR is feeding and snuggling well, and your other children are adapting beautifully. I look forward to the photos.

Elsa/Hermya, did mention to mw I've felt no BHs yet, she said I will be having them by now, just one of those people who don't feel them. I find that hard to believe - I thought they were meant to be unmissable?

ILGH, glad the scan was good!

38+6.

AbFab With my 1st dc i never felt any BH, this time ive felt them but not very often.

Jennimoo Im very excited for you!

My bh arent painfull Abfab, just turn my belly solid- everyone is different though.

Jenimoo- good luck!!! Try to keep moving to aid progression-things can slow slightly in the water as it's so lovely!

Abfab I have no idea if I'm feeling BH or not, I kind of get a bit crampy every now and then but thats about it. My belly does go hard, but it's nothing painful and sometimes I don't even notice them.

Jenimoo Ooooooo good luck!!!

abfab this is the first time I've had BH that I noticed. V painful this time though. Not helped by baby stripping over them
