Home stretch for Februray babies! Thread 7

[BanglesSpangles]

Hi All

Here's what may or may not be our final thread!!

ah tonights thats lovely. love their names too. im sitting here all broody for baby cuddles.
dh visiting soon we need to actually discuss names

I finish on Monday at 38+4 I'm really finding it a struggle this week. My back hurts and my pubic bone feels like it's going to split apart. Not forgetting the need to fall asleep baiting the day but can't while working.

tonights lovely names, welcome Annie and Martha.

I'm fine with people posting birth stories, if others are. I'd actually be quite interested in your birth story as it was ELCS.

aaah lovely, tonights :)

I'm well up for the gory details, but I don't scare easily, so appreciate that some would rather not!!

Thanks why, I think statutory is based on EDD but he gets enhanced and at this stage I don't want to find out how finickity they could or couldn't be! Fingers crossed ds carries on keeping bits of food down.

Because of saved up AL / where Christmas was etc I managed to finish work at 34w, I'm glad I did and take my hat off to those going a lot later.

Hi Tonight, I'd love to hear the birth story too, if you're happy to share. Lovely names for your little girls. So pleased to hear you're feeling OK.

Memphis, am thinking of you. Hope all goes well today.

Geeky, I got married earlier last year, and used a huge chunk of AL to go on a 3 week honeymoon. Bliss, but meant I didn't have any to carry over this year, so felt like I had to go as long as possible. After a truly horrendous first and early 2nd trimester with hypermesis, I've felt very well in the 3rd, so it's been OK. All of my new friends at NCT are on leave and having coffees mid-week without me though and feeling a bit envious/left out. Only 1 more day to go though!

Congrats tonight's, how exciting!

Hope your going ok Memphis!!

Martha is our girls name, I just love it! Obviously great taste!
I'm well up for a birth story

im all ears for birth story. im bored to tears after being here since 8 ....dh is on his way with haribo and choc supplies

Congrats Tonight on the new babies :)

I have done almost nothing today, just sat on the sofa, finishing up crochet projects which I have promised to get done and watch terrible tv, awful heartburn though :(

I did go for lunch with my DH and DS has been in nursery so it's been quite lovely!

Memphis, hope something happens soon!

Tonights, those are gorgeous names :)

Our next door neighbours have just started their daily screaming match. I think they're mother and daughter... either way they argue for about a solid hour each day, screaming the most vile language at each other. They both seem SO polite out in the street though, so I wonder if they just don't relaise how thin the walls are.

Methinks once our little one is here they might just realise how much can be heard...

realise*. Not sure where relaise came from...

Awwww Congrats Tonights!! Two little girls! Hope you three are doing well!! At least you weren't hanging around for the day waiting!

I've carried my bump quite low all along. I never had any heartburn either because my bump was low. Everyone now that sees me comments that it's a boy bump as it's low. It's really annoying me as I want it as a surprise!! Has anyone carried a girl but carried it low?!

Blank 3 sonographers have said this ones a girl and I've carried this pregnancy lower than DS.

DS is much better now. He's eaten more crackers and breadsticks (didn't want his toast though) and is going to bed now (doesn't normally go until 7). Just hoping he stays OK through the night.

I'm up for birth stories too!

I'm up for hearing birth stories!

Congrats tonights. The names are lovely. I hope you are enjoying lovely newborn cuddles.

I hope DS is much better in the morning why.

I'd be up for hearing birth stories too! As long as folk are happy to share it's fine by me. Love the names you have chosen for your girls tonights

Hope you have an ok night memphis and not too long a wait before you meet your little one!

getting pains every 4 mins. they expect baby here tomorrow woohoo. waiting for them to get worse then going to do waters

Hey guys! Congrats and good luck to the ladies who have had their babies or about to have them!!

I have two weeks tomorrow until my section- absolutely terrified but so so fed up of being pregnant! I'm swollen and massive.

Definitely up for hearing birth stories especially c-section ones!

Congratulations tonight's. Those are very good weights. I was only 6 lbs 8oz myself when I was born full term.

I have completely messed my pelvis up today. Stupidly tried to catch a door at work as it closed with a foot because I had my hands full and immediately got a sharp stab through the front of my pelvis. Now it is sooo painful to hobble round the house although I am okay just sat on the sofa. All the pain is in my pubic joint and left crotch. I had a bath as soon as I got home. It was agony to lift my left leg over the edge of the bath. I had to lift it over with my hands to get in and out. Really hope it eases overnight and I haven't completely buggered myself doing something so stupid.

Yay memphis wishing you all the best!

Woohoo Memphis - good luck :D

Go Memphis!
Lovely names tonights!
I'm definitely up for all birth stories.
37 weeks tomorrow. In theory for work and leave purposes I should be wanting to make it to 39 weeks but my goodness would really like this baby out now...

This might be an incredibly dumb question but here we go anyway...

I can't have TOO many baths at this late stage, can I? It's just that it soothes my SPD pain so much and really chills me out. Some people seem to think though that a bath can bring on labour?

Obviously after Saturday this would be fine... (when I'll be 37w).

I live in the bath and did with my first and I was a week late, not heard of it bringing on labour (wish it would!)
Lovely girly names for the twins and good luck Memphis if the contractions are 4 mins apart already hopefully won't be too long
