**********November 2006 - Has your DH/P sniffed yours?**********

[NatalieJane]

Here we go girls, probably the last one, so make the most of it

And any ideas for a new name for me when this is all over with would be great thanks

hoep everyone ok and not in too much pain (silly thing to say i know!!) i hope debbsy is getting her bibby (or already has him!) shes been missing for a while!

nj still rooting for you love, jsut push the baby out, dont worry about the cervix! lol, gotta be less painful than what you're going through!

all jokes aside we'r all looking fwd to seeing you on the post natal thread with your little bundles! good luck!

thanks Stace

Debbsy {{{hugs}}} I am sorry, these babies have a lot to answer for! Hopefully it won't be much longer
Fondant, sounds like what my DS has had, it is an awful bug, I hope she carries on getting better, DS went back down with it a couple of times before he managed to shake it off properly.
Stacey Yeah, sod my cervix, it isn't as though it will get in the way or anything, I'll just push and push and push shall I?!!! LOL There are times when he feels that low I think it wouldn't take much of a push to get him out! LOL

I have been into town, got loads of christmas shopping done, I have pulled nearly every muscle in my belly, but if over doing it is the only thing to get this baby shifted then it will be worth it!

Had a yummy lunch in my favourite cafe, it is run by the campest, gayest, funniest man I have ever known, I always leave with a smile, and spend the rest of the day giggling to myself over him! LOL

Right I am off to try and hide these pressies, we used to put them all int he spare room but it isn't spare anymore, so no idea where they are going to go! Might take a while....!!!

Hi again

Nice that those from the post natel thread are saying hello - hopefully see you over there at some point .

Debbsy - does sound like we're mirroring each other - I totally agree with you - I'm not planning to move until I'm biting the cushions or the contractions are so close we have to sprint to hospital.

At the moment I feel so sick I'm carrying the vomit bowl around with me everywhere. Tried to have a nap and felt so uncomfortable and sick I didn't know what to do.

The contractions are like buses - I wait ages for one then three turn up at once.

I've been playing stupid games on the PC - I can change position frequently on the office chair and it distracts me little. I did have a walk earlier - didn't speed them up or regulate them or anything - I will have to have a paracetemol soon as the aches between contractions are getting annoying. Baby is moving like nobody's business - definitely think it wants out - although it looks like it's a December baby now.

Do you think we should let the December mum's know they've got company? At least we'll be the first with babies on that thread.

See you all soon

a fed up and aching LA

LA, I think Decembers lot started having their babies before we had our first November baby in October!!

I don't know about anyone else, but as long as it is OK with the girls on the Nov P/N I am sticking with them, it would feel wierd being a new thread with so many different people now.

Fair enough NJ

I do feel like I've made a lot of friends here

Will talk again when my brain starts to work again.

Loads of love and luck
LA

hi guys... well i went shopping too today! why is spending money oh so satisfying!! we also went for lunch in our favourite cafe, although the owners not camp, just a miserable old woman, but they do lovely food! i bought a new squishy cushion for breast feeding,so thats put with all the bags to take to hospital! and a pillow that gives you a massage (vibrating stylee) heaven on my poor achey back! i'm using it right now!! went to a friends after, they've got a 5yo ds and he kept our ds so entertained it was fun... came home knackered!! think we've decided they will look after ds when the time finally comes!! this has really been playing on our minds the last week!!

LA, they've already started producing baby's on the december thread, i actually think this is very rude when were still waiting lol

debbsy, i really thought we weren't gonna see you for a few days, and the next we would hear from you would be to tell us all about bibby... shame, but things are getting going at least so it will be very soon!! exciting!!

hi to post natal girlies!! soooooooooo looking forward to joining that thread!!!

tomorrow i'm 1 week overdue and getting the sweep done!! nervous, but not tearful anymore!!

hi to everyone else xx

Hi Saralou - so nice to hear how positive you are - you're chatty message has cheered me up . If you can be happy about being overdue then it's about time I pulled myself together and just let the baby get on with it.

DP is working late - but has promised me a massage when he gets back. Mum is fidgety she's not used to having so much time to sit around and do nothing. Still she's looking after me - she thinks she can stay another week - hope so. I have a back up birth partner (after DP and Mum) but will feel a bit awkward as although I get on with her really well - I'm not sure about having my bits on show in front of her.

Wondering if it's worth having another bath - although I haven't had a paracetamol yet.

See you all
LA

Oh sorry - I am Mummy2Toby by the way (as if you couldn't work it out yourselves ) I am afraid the new name isn't too imaginative

ooh, i'm getting some pains!! just low grade periody type pains, then belly goes tight and period pain gets worse and then goes after 30 seconds or so.. can't lay comfortably!! so am sat bounxcing on my birth ball! gonna find a film to watch and settle for the night on the sofa... feel a bit sicky too. x

Morning all - my waters finally broke at 2.06...now just got to wait for the contractions to sort themselves out....

Cal

good luck cal hope your well on your way to having your baby.xx

Congrats Bethbe Well done!!

Cal, I've left you a message on the other thread, if you get to check at all this morning! - so pleased for you xxx

Sara, how's it going?

Debbsy, anything doing?

Me, I woke up and lost loads of my show again, got periody type pains, but what's new?!!! I am fairly convinced I will end up being induced now, it seems pretty much inevitable now.

Off to have my brekie

nothing
whats for breakie?

I'm not sure really, just had a cup of tea, and have decided I am going to buy a new kettle today, we have had our kettle (that cost us £90!!!) for three years, it has leaked since day one when you pour out of it, and I have had enough of cleaning up after it! LOL Poor DH just had a mouthful from me about it, and when he smirked at me I nearly hit him with the damn thing, I think he realised I was being deadly serious and has said I can go and get one 'if it makes me happy' LOL Poor bloke, what has he had to put up with since I've been pregnant?!!!

Hmmm, maybe some taost, or weetabix... can't decide! Might wait till DS get's up and see what he wants!

im gonig back to bed then beans and toast for me which has been my craving all through
lol -dh mines the same he said i looked like an overgrown ferrett yesterday and i started to cry at that.He was only joking its cos i was on my hands and knees crawling through the dogs hatch.
speak later xx

LOL The poor blokes, they don't get off that lightly do they?!!

Have a good nap

morning all just thought id check up on you all seems like there still loads of you left!!!

Nj bet you cant wait for it to finally be ova after all the trobles youve had???

Congratulations to any new mummies xx

Me and dd are doing fine cant believe she nearly 3 weeks old already and she has changed and grown so much, am struggling with the sleepless nites ad dd has been suffering with colic the last few nites which is awful but think ive masnged to sort it as she slept better last nite!!!
