Just checking in - not had time to read posts yet though.

Have we had any babies yet? Dd2 is due next wed and I'm so fed up. Hear is unbearable for me and dd1 (3.5) just wants to be out!!

Arrrrrrrgh!

thatwhichwecallarose · 24/07/2014 08:25

Hope you and baby are doing ok, monsters.

ilovemonstersInc · 24/07/2014 08:26

I wish I could give some good news lol but cant.

Pains are on and off here which is soo bloody frustrating!

Im not too bad today had lots of irregular pains yesterday

ilovemonstersInc · 24/07/2014 08:27

Wow due next Wednesday!! Sooo close now!

thatwhichwecallarose · 24/07/2014 16:17

On and off pains must be so frustrating! How are you supposed to know "this is it"?!

So close but so far away. I keep thinking any day now so get a sense of disappointment when I wake every morning!!

ilovemonstersInc · 24/07/2014 18:12

It really does piss you off!
Just had a mega pain a bit ago but nothing since Hmm

ilovemonstersInc · 24/07/2014 18:57

Been every 10mins since last post. Not too painful. Fx!

Announcing the birth of Seth Edward by ELCS at 12.43 today. He's 7lbs 1oz and a dinky wee thing.

I've been in hospital for a week as he was an unstable breech lie, so glad he's finally here. :-)

thatwhichwecallarose · 24/07/2014 21:29

Yey!!!! Congrats! First baby I think then. How you're both well

ilovemonstersInc · 24/07/2014 21:50

HungryHorace · 25/07/2014 00:34

How are you doing monsters?

I think we are at about 7 or 8 births now (including 2 sets of twins) but most of the updating seems to be happening on FB.

I had my little girl, 6 weeks early, last week. She's doing pretty well.

ilovemonstersInc · 25/07/2014 08:31

Awww.
How are you? Hows she doing? Is she home? Awwww

congratulations Flowers

im still getting pain. Last night was pretty intense then nothing Hmm
Just have to wait it out

thatwhichwecallarose · 25/07/2014 08:48

Aww lots of babies arriving safely!!!

Really hoping I'm not kept waiting too much longer.

ilovemonstersInc · 25/07/2014 09:02

Is this your first?

It's my 3rd and I'm still excited lol.
Just want to get this bit over amd done with so I can recover and feel normal again!

HungryHorace · 25/07/2014 13:15

I'm going home this afternoon. Yay! :-)

My 9 days in hospital has come to an end. Thank god.

And DD gets to meet her little brother!

eurochick · 25/07/2014 13:46

You're hanging on in there monsters!

Centime is doing pretty well. Still in Neonates but has just had a bit of jaundice (to be expected with premmies) and needs a lot of fattening up as she was only 3lb6 at birth.

I'm doing well. The section itself was awful but my recovery has been much better than expected.

ilovemonstersInc · 25/07/2014 13:57

Aww little baba Flowers
Im 35weeks today. If theres a change with cervix on Wednesday consultant will give me a sweep. If not then at 37 weeks she will.
Ive got lower tummy ache just at bottom of bump.

I was really moody last night. Dh didn't wake me when ds woke up. He gave him his bottle and some fruit before going to work. Just as he was leaving he woke me to tell me hes drinking the rest of his bottle.
