Overweight, overdue, overtired, over-emotional - It's October!!! The final countdown...

[Tigerlion]

Hope this works and that this thread sees the arrival of lots of wonderful little babies!

ive got so much pressure in my pelivs just got bak from shopping and i really struggled walking round!!!

taffy, you have honestly hit it on the head with what im having...its just damn irritating, but i can deal with the "pain" just as if its a period. fingers crossed that tomorrow will bring me even closer.

are you getting pains or anything?

youngmum, r u ok? ive had the hard to walk thing for a few days, but this morning it was quite horrible as i couldnt walk, just sort of hobble very very slowly bent over

Nothing at all happening here wuzz. I have resigned myself to at least another week!
Youngmum go and put your feet up and have a coffee - you're not allowed to go into labour until sunday!!

and you were due on the 25th did you say? i bet its annoying you a bit then too?

so far y niggles have read as : 5 mins, 9 mins, 11 mins, and im waiting for the next. it really is driving me up the wall lol

wuzz - that is excatly how i am sort of hobbling round in pain it doesnt help that ive got a bad bak as well!!!!

Taffy dont panic i really dont think any thing is going to happen anytime soon lol im sure your lo will be arrivin soon i think my lo will be late xx

I really feel for you wuzz. I think it is fairly typical of first pregnancies. My sister was the same with her first. She reassures me the 2nd will be quicker but I am doubtful!
I'm afraid I don't know what to suggest to hurry it up - you just need to be patient and conserve your energy I think. If baths are working for you take one, although for me I just thought oh now I'm wet and in pain!!

Samuel is doing really well, he is a week old today. Feeding every 3 1/2 hours but only for 20 mins so getting enough sleep.

I bounced on my gym ball for the first time 1 1/2 the night i went in to labour. So girls get bouncing i am sure thats what got me started xxx

Good luck x

youngmum, its horrible isnt it? your signs sound a lot like mine too with the pain walking etc.

taffy - dont worry about not being bale to suggest anyhting, its honestly been fantastic to have someone to listen to me moan and gripe that knows what im on about so thanks

mmmmchoc - lovely name! and im so glad to hear that alls going well...i'll be sure to jump on the old gym ball in half hour or so, see if that gets things rolling a little better

Good luck wuzz. Hopefully by the time I wake up in morning (6.15am is dds latest trick - thank god for cbeebies) you will be cuddling your little girl

congratulations marthahm! good luck wuzz hope it all kicks off properly soon.

At 8pm the contractions started last night, about every seven minutes. They were proper contractions with peaks, not like BHs. I went to bed to try and get some rest as I slept badly the night before. I was conscious of contraction in the night but when I woke at 6am they had stopped.

I've sat on my ball this morning and had very sharp dragging pains really low that make me whimper a bit. I can feel the baby pushing down. But only a couple of contractions this morning.

Desperate for it to come out now!

im sorry emily but you have to wait till the 31st theres a queue u know lol only joking!!!

Looks like it cud be your time soon then!!!
Still nothing here so best rsign my self to the fact i dont thinks she will be here tomorrow

Wuzz hows it going any more news??????? xx

Hi everyone

Just thought I'd let you know that hopefully another october baby is on the way. My waters have been trickling this morning, have just had a show, and am getting the odd contraction. I suppose I should be timing them, but too busy nesting!

will keep checking in to see how everyone else is getting on.

hopefully things r starting 4 u then emily & binbon, good luck!

wuzz hows things with u? Hopefully ur baby is here by now!

not much happenin here, nothin i tried yesterday has worked, i've still got 2 days left till due date tho so i'm not gettin 2 stressed just yet! I really think i'm gonna b late now tho!

Have u had any of ur tablets yet youngmum?

Hi everyone - still no further progress at Redhead Towers. I need to keep calm and not get fed up as I'm only 2 days overdue today, but it's hard not to get a bit impatient isn't it? Lay awake for 2 hours in the middle of the night, unable to get back to sleep, willing the baby to put in an appearance soon!

I can still just about walk, but not very far or fast and my hips get really stiff when I sit down. I'm bouncing on that ball to olympic standard but nothing yet. I had a few twinges this morning of period type pain, but nothing since I had my shower.

Anyone else want to join in a chorus of 'Why are we waiting'?!

hi bendy no i havent had any of the tabs yet keep forgetting must remember to take some today!!! cant believe tomorrow is my due date and i will only be pg for two weeks at the most if she dont come on time lol!!

dp was up for some hanky panky last nite and i turned him down i know i shud be tryin but i just cudnt be bothered he even using my own ideas against me, he sed well it mite help bring labour on that my excuse for having sex lol!!!

lol dashingRedhead! i'm so frustrated aswell, & not even overdue yet! & I've also been goin mad on my ball!!!

I've started takin mine now youngmum,
I couldn't b bothered with any hanky panky either!!! Must force myself 2nite tho lol! x

thats wot i sed to myself must make the effort to nite lol!!!

Im not sure if ill make it till tonite though just had a sharp pain like a period pain, well either that or i need the toilet lol!!

lol! I've been havin quite a lot of period pain type things but it never turns into anythin! Hopefully it will 4 u! Have u had a backache? The bottom of my back is really sore, has been 4 a few days, my sis said she had that before she went into labour, so i'm hoping that means somethin!
I wonder which 1 of us gonna have r lo 1st??? I seriously think i'm gonna b the last 1 left on here! x

i think we shud start a new thread with the name october 06 - the last few wots everyone left think lol

i had really bad back last nite all ova so went for a soak didnt really help any!! havent really been having any types of pain but it seems to of gone now so i was prob just getting my hopes up lol

oh i'm sure things will start 4 u soon, like i said any pains etc i've had haven't led anywhere yet, & been having them 4 few days now! Its so annoyin isn't it? all this waitin!

Yeah good idea 4 new thread!

Wonder if anythin has happened with wuzz yet?! x
