We will have a calm and worry-free pregnancy with lots of jumping beans and bouncing babies and will BROOK NO ARGUMENT on that (Part 7)

[TooImmatureTurtleDoves]

Next gel or water breakage at half four. Have lots of pain in bum and thighs and back when moving stops when I sit down. Rubbish signal so struggling to update too much.

No two hour labours here though!

Yay for an update Pomme - keep going my lovely . Good luck if you're still needing the gel or waters breaking at half 4, hope something happens of its own accord in the meantime.

Jen - I used to feel hiccups with DS and they were like a twitch but very rhythmic and went on for several minutes with the same regular rhythm. How many weeks are you now?

biscuits, don't be daft. You should definitely have gone, and should go Fri/Mon and earlier if its the same again. Like I said, I can't count the kicks as such, but if the pattern changed I'd be stressing. I thought twin 2 was quiet on the day of my scan last time (a convenient time to do it for once!!) and went in saying to the sonographer I was worried, he'd been quieter- and she straight away checked both hb for me, and he is on his right, facing his brother so that's why it was quieter. In fact they were both on their right, spooning on my last scan- really sweet! If you know your baby normally moves at a certain time or way and they dont it's get checked.

I'm 28 weeks now. Sometimes I get a couple of twitches in a row but most of the time it's just a single one.

Circle your pelvis Pomme, encourage LO to help cervix to play nicely

Thanks Dream

Probably they are kicks then Jen - you'll probably find that they get stronger as you go on - my kicks were still 'weak' at 28 weeks. I think I only really felt the hiccups closer to the end last time too -although I've not felt them this time- which could be because there aren't any, or because I feel so little.

oh pomme, come on labour!!! You're doing marvellouslly especially updating us

Go Po-mme, Go Po-mme

Grabs popcorn or Popcorn, Imps?

Hmm, am not sure I'd be allowed in here again if I start man-handling PSEPPs

That's never stopped you before Imps

Gosh, I feel really nervous for Pomme!!! Come on my lovely, you can do it!!!

By the way - have had more kicks this afternoon - feels more like it should (thank you baby )

Go pomme go

Hang in there Pomme! You'll see your LO soon!

Pops in to brook like mad for a nice easy and quick labour for pomme

Waves at every one else

Biscuits you definitely did the right thing getting checked out. Like you said, if the movements are happening but you can't actually feel them, how are you supposed to know they're happening? It's not something that's worth taking any risk for and I certainly don't think you're making a fuss about nothing. It's so confusing isn't it when there's so much conflicting information around what's normal and what isn't. Great to hear you've felt lots of movementsince.

pomme maybe you could just try and do a sneeze?

jen I've not felt any hiccups yet (32+3) I definitely noticed them with DS, but nothing recognizable as hiccups yet this time. My movements seem to range from full on jabs, a complete body shift around, tickly sort of twitches and then the alien type thing where you can actually feel a particular body part poking through.

Wants I'm still in that you didn't get to hospital until 9cm!

Go Pomme, go!

Good luck pomme fingers crossed it goes smoothly

scarlet I was too when midwife did first check. I would like to do the same again, I am happier in my own space( but don't want home birth ). May happen as I will have to wait for poss 2 hours for DH to get back from work!
Go pomme ,sprinkles pepper in her general direction.

Good luck pomme !!!

Cheers Biscuits ! Well, I'm oft to be found in Boots' indigestion aisle atm :o

Ahhh spoony babies dream ! That's lush :)

The mythical vivid preggo dreams have kicked in ? I actually woke myself up shouting for DH and flailing at a zombie hoard on Saturday night :o But at least the nausea is not developing into anything more ? I feel a bit like I'm cheating?!?! :o

I am abit of too going shopping, I am still waiting for DH to say we can order the car seat! Still have a pram, bedding and crib mattress to buy and am abit worried that 11 weeks won't be enough time, especially as DH was phoning builders today to start getting quotes and we have several weekends already booked up! Ok breeathe! :)

Have been crocheted and drip about to go in...

Thanks for all the support brokers.

So far induction second time round less like being dropped naked onto spaghetti junction :)

Ooooh pomme that's so exciting. By the time we come back on tomorrow morning, DD2 will hopefully be here Thanks for keeping us updated.
