September 2014 - Babies are starting to make an appearance!

[lilone1234]

A few babies have already arrived, with more due to make their entrance soon, and it's not even September yet!

cookie I'm in an ensuite room of my own, it's very nice.

two yay for your own room.

Argh sorry for all you suffering spd! Sounds so painful!

Thanks for the new list Red, I'm due 25th so could I pretty please be moved to the week commencing 22nd

Thanks for the list Red! DS due on 5th so hopefully not too much longer to wait...am so bored with this pregnancy lark...

Missing- I'd get some nappies, wipes, couple of outfits and some muslins.
You'll get loads given to you so done worry too much and everything else can be picked up as and when you need it.

Two- how are you so calm?! Good luck x

I have no idea what's wrong with me today. I've no inclination to do anything and I've got loads to do! Just putting dd down for a nap and really should get on with some jobs. Just can't be arsed. Feel like going back to bed.
Absolutely dreading labour but it's about level with not wanting to be bloody pregnant anymore! Keep thinking, labour is a short time (I hope!!) whereas I'm pregnant day in and day out so I should be swayed towards labour.
Right, I'm off to sort the washing. Dd is asleep - send me some motivational vibes!

good luck, two. yes, epidurals r the best thing ever....and why not top up with a bit of g&a just for the fun of it :)

Hopefully not long now twos, if u haven't already met ur little one.

Red - I'm due 13th Sept, when u next update the stats.

Thanks Red - I am due on the 3rd if you/anyone next updates the stats

Although I am hoping s/he decides to come sooner, as i am getting fed up and uncomfortable now

Right I THINK I have most of you now!!!
(Please double check because I worked out a few due dates from the thread, so I might be a bit useless and got it wrong).

You're a star for putting that all together red! What a nice organised thread we have. In no time at all, people will start popping all over the place!

Thanks for updating the list Red.

Good luck Twos. Not long to go now.

Had reflexology & held a newborn this morning. Fingers crossed one of them works. Getting so uncomfortable now, can't wait to be able to move normally & turn over in bed without it being a major effort. V jealous of you sleeping in your front Ilove.

Hi, can I get added to the list, due date 23rd! Been following thread since the beginning, thanks!

Wow good luck twos!

Well after about 4 hours sleep, (DH did get up with DS), I was greeted with pancakes which made me sufficiently happy to face the day so I have just had my hair done! and am off to have my bits waxed off in preparation for stitches! Aaaah the glamour!

I still have to pack my labour bag, and do some batch cooking, then all baby prep is done! I'm going to spend the next couple of weeks ebaying clothes to raise money for my buggy and fill the time.

Cookie, I used to leak from the opposite boob whenever I fed or pumped, I found breast shells useful to collect the milk.

Thanks from the stats Red and good luck Twos!

*for, even. Not with it today!

Excellent stats red OMG Im bored. so bored Im about to hoover the stairs.

Has anyone ever bought a foam mattress that arrives rolled up? We had one delivered a few weeks ago for the trundle bed which Ill be using in the nursery, and it smells so bad- like a flooded cellor, damp smell, the whole house pongs of it. Ive complained and after me having to stamp my foot they are coming to collect it this afternoon, I just want it out of the house. They are supposed to be replacing it but this will take a few weeks, I just wondered if anyone could recommend one? We had to go with foam as it has to be narrow enough to fit under the bed. But not open coil or memory foam..Im tempted to cancel the order and just get a really good mattress topper for the old mattress...any thoughts?

thinking of you twos!

Welcome Cassius Merrick born 13.53 weighing 7lbs 13oz. Already latched on and had a little breast feed just doing skin to skin now.

Oh well done two!! Massive congrats and welcome baby.
Hope you're ok? Would love to hear about it when you feel up to it.

Aww massive congrats two what a cutie xx

OMG Twos that's fantastic news, well done. Cassius is a beauty! I second that would love to hear how you got on

Its so exciting !! Whos next?

Congratulations Twos. Cassius is adorable. Hope you're all doing well.

Congrats Twos and happy birthday Cassius!
Thanks for list Red - you made correct change before I had a chance to ask! So organised...
24 cupcakes baked and iced. Bedrooms tidied and cleaned. Fresh flowers in jugs and vases on tables. Just have to clean kitchen, do final brush of floors and clean living room window and house will be ready for viewings! Tempted to stick a loaf of wheaten in the oven to make nice smells, but don't think I've time!

Congratulations!

Wow, congrats Twos, he's so cute

Thanks for the amazing update Red. I'm due 21st Sept, although after the scan we're now pretty certain it will be an ELCS and so earlier than that.
