January 2013 part 6: the one where all the babies arrive to join their friends who escaped early!

[BuntysFestiveCollocks]

New thread as the other one is nearly full !

Our next baby should be pmgkt's, but I won't if any little cheeky monkey will sneak in before Thursday?

birdies noone ever bothered charting this one or DD1 for anything.
I was also surprised that they do not measure length anymore? or is it Scotland only?

Thanks birdies. the back pain is pretty constant and feels very nervey rather than achey, did yours feel like that? Bump feels very tender as well but not tight. Wish I knew what was going on in there! How utterly annoying about the growth charts, unbelievable that they can't get it right. Hope you and dd are doing well.

Hormonal Twice i went in n nothing 3rd time I had little trickles the waters never actually went but the worst thing is by the time little man was born he had been without them for 27 hours n so I had to have lots of antibiotics

Hang in there lovely try not to let other people's expectations put pressure on you easier said then done i know but you are stronger then you know an by the sounds of it bubs won't be long xox

I saw the midwife today and had a sweep but cervix was posterior and she could only reach the external opening? Booked in for another try on Sunday and if nothing then will be looking at induction in the middle of next week. sigh

Hi Ladies

Well after 29 long slow hours of labour, we finally welcomed DD2 into the world at 5.10am this morning, we have named her Lois and she is a didi 5lb.9oz. Mummy and Daddy are smitten as is DD1 who is on cloud 9 as she really wanted a little sister.

hoping her lazy arrival translates into a lovely sleeping baby.

Congrats Allchik, Happy and Deicio hope you are all doing well.

Awwww thanks Boutiquemummy u made me feel much better, such lovely ladies on this thread

Congrats my due date buddy Lostbobbles, I'm hoping it's an incentive for mine to come now lovely name too !!

Morning well looks like I have been blessed with another nocturnal warrior but this one has decided to add comfort feeding/ suckling into mix as well , hope milk comes in quick as she seems so hungry and not settling.

Hey EDD buddy I'm sending that boy an eviction notice tell him he has some catching up to do. Xxx

He must have got it quick lost bobbles cos he's here

Little Charlie James was born at 1.55am after a 2 hour labour weighs 6lb 4oz n teeny. Will write birth story on post natal soon

Congrats, hormonal!

Congrats bobbles and hormonal! Happy for you!
No activity here. 40+3 now, had 2nd sweep, Midwife said nothing happening. Now into the 6th week of bugger-all sleep due to pain in hips and such like. Booooo.

congrats you two!!

Octane i'm 40 weeks on Monday - SOOO fed up and know exactly what you mean about lack of sleep, i'm averaging about 5 hours a night at the moment.

I just wish i felt something or even lost a bit of the show etc like some of the ladies, but literally nothing. Scared to have a sweep but think i'm going to enquire about it at my MW appt on Monday

Orange you have my smypathies too - it's just so frustrating, and i am by nature a v impatient person. My mum told me that i was 2 weeks overdue as apparently she was expecting me on the 14th Jan - the last thing i want to do is have a baby on my birthday!!

plus is anyone else other than myself freaking out about the predictions for heavy snow - i'm now picturing scenarios whereby it's impossible to get to hospital/doula can't get to our house etc etc.....

congrats to the new mommies.

godz i amfeaking out a bit about the snow.

i am not due for 2 weeks but getting back ache and period pain - could this be the start?

Yippee Hormonal, fabulous news. Yet another great name, enjoy xx

More eviction wishes being sent to those still waiting xx

Salt, both my labours started with those symptoms. Fingers crossed for you

Salt that's how mine started. The cramping started about two days before, and the day before my discharge took on a slightly pinky colour which was the start of the show. Good luck x

Whoot hormonal ha a 2 hr labour that's because you did all the work before hand x

Congratulations bobbles

More cool names for the board x

Salt that was me this time last night, felt horrible n crampy after tea last night with backache, went to bed took painkillers had a sharp stabbing pain about 10.45 rushed to loo for number two then had another 5 mins later, was different to Braxton hicks more intense they then kept coming every 5 mins rang an ambulance he was here less than hour later

Hi ladies, congrats to all the new mummies and good luck to all you still waiting.

Ive lurked on this thread but thought I should post an update.I had DC4 (DD1) on Wednesday at 12.22pm by elective c-section. She was 7lb 14 and 52cm long with long legs and a mop of raven black hair. We've named her Safiya and are absolutely besotted by her.

Hi all. Congrats on all the new arrivals, so wonderful to log on and discover some more babies have arrived.

Am getting massively itchy feet, spent the aftwenoon practising putting the pram up and down. Reorganised the nursery. Feeling so frustrated waiting for baby. And 38+4 and finding it so hard to be patient. Keep hoping one of thse numerous aches and twinges means something, but so far nada :-(

Ok i think its important i give the ladies yet to evict my advice :-D first go for a massive shop preferably asda to get things moving and second when baby is here please make the most of your first two nights. Youl think somethings wrong cos the baby isnt crying but just sleep!!!!! They really come into their own the 3rd night find their voice and start actually needing food rather than living off their reserves.... SLEEP.... I DIDNT and now im up practically all hours

Hi Lora me 2 at the moment the baby is hiccupping n hubby is snoring

Hiccups are a pain the only way ive managed to get rid was to put himback on the boob. Winding them away would take ages . He makes me laugh with his impressive amount of farts and wind.

Yesterday the shopman said 'oh you look rough, you got a cold?' to be fair i did look rough but i said'no, i just had a baby' :-D the sod then went on to add inslt to injury by saying 'oh youve had it then?' must start diet soon :-D

Did u slap him?? Lol
