Good luck @Maybebaby! Can't wait to hear the good news these next few days bring!

Ruthcarr1990 · 28/12/2017 01:30

Well that’s me up with raging back pains and now convinced I’m starting off.

It’s 1.28am and the Christmas tree is down and I’m just tidying around waiting for my dh to come home from work.

There’s a strong chance I’m not prob just in my head. Xxx

Waitingonasmile · 28/12/2017 07:06

Any updates @Ruthcarr1990 ?

I'm so fed up of being sick Envy.!

MummyM33 · 28/12/2017 07:32

Good luck today @WLMcI! How exciting for you!!
Had a sweep yesterday and unfortunately doesn't seem to have done anything (other than be quite a painful experience!). Have another one booked in for next week!

Waitingonasmile · 28/12/2017 07:46

Oh no @MummyM33 was it really sore? I have one next week and I'm nervous about it.

Mummyme87 · 28/12/2017 07:55

No sweeeps here for me. Had three last time and we think that’s what worsened how infected DS was. Plus they rarely work, just cause more problems!

I’ve travelled 300miles from home for a few days hoping this baby stays put

Waitingonasmile · 28/12/2017 08:31

@Mummyme87 well as my husband can't drive and getting home after birth either involves an hours flight (leaving car with all our stuff behind so not ideal) or 2 hour drive and 5 hour ferry. I am very keen to avoid c section and will take the sweep even if there's only a minute chance it'll do anything.

rememberpurpleronnie · 28/12/2017 08:49

Can I recommend not reading the 'tell me your birth story thread' which is currently active. I'm being induced tomorrow and baby is back to back. Everyone seems to be delighting in regaling their horror stories. I have already been through an induced labour with a back to back baby and it wasn't horrific, in fact it wasn't a bad experience at all, so I am reminding myself to listen to my own experiences before those of a group of strangers! Grin

Mummyme87 · 28/12/2017 09:01

rememberpurpleronnie a positive story is never a good story to tell unfortunately. I’ve got a book which has a lot of positive birth stories in it... I see a mixture of horrendous to amazing births and try to keep the positive in my mind. My labour was mixed, quick Induction which ended in CS but I felt informed, in control and like I took part in the decision making process theoughout so was positive. Our outcome was awful and pretty traumatic as DS had meningitis when he was born so we have adjusted a few it’s this time to reduce this risk, delivery by 41weeks so Induction at 40+4, no sweeps, private GBS screening at 10 and 36weeks. So far I feel in control of everything and feeling positive 😃 and I had a birth reflection appt to go through everything aswell which I would absolutely recommend to anyone.
I always say to women, if anyone starts to tel you their birth story, stop them and tell them ‘positive stories only’

Waitingonasmile · 28/12/2017 09:05

Too late @rememberpurpleronnie Shock. It's horrible. Glad you had a better experience and hope tomorrow will be the same. It's so exciting all these babies arriving now.

I only have another 12 days to go into labour before section at 40 weeks, but either way at least it'll be over in less that two weeks!!!

rememberpurpleronnie · 28/12/2017 09:15

@Mummyme87 you are so right, a quick labour with gas and air doesn't make a good story does it! The thing is- some of the things people are saying made their labour horrific I also experienced, but I felt in control and trusted the people looking after me, so I think your mindset plays a huge part.

flossie79 · 28/12/2017 09:57

Thank you for all the well wishes and good luck @maybebaby2 and @WLMcl hope all goes well for you today. I am still feeling a bit bruised and battered after first attempting labour, then moving onto forceps then finally having to resort to a c section. We are both well though and DH and I are just totally in love with her, just wanting to get home and settled now. Hope everyone else is well and good luck to people waiting!

MummyM33 · 28/12/2017 09:59

@Waitingonasmile if I'm honest it wasn't the most pleasant experience. My partner came with me and held my hand as I would have hated to go through it alone. It would have been worth the discomfort if it worked but unfortunately it hasn't. Still I'll try another one next week as keep to avoid induction if possible.
It just made me feel a bit sore like I'd been kicked repeatedly and I had to have a sleep when I got home.
I think the fact my cervix was so far back made it worse so it fingers crossed it might be better for you

Mummyme87 · 28/12/2017 10:52

purpleronnie mind set/perception/expectation has a lot to do with it.

Maybebaby2 · 28/12/2017 11:00

Baby Ivy Rose arrived 6.38am this morning weighing 5lb 14oz, tiny and perfect 😍 Labour was interesting a few hic ups along the way but we're both fine and doing well.... just a little sleepy 😀

Ruthcarr1990 · 28/12/2017 11:04

@Waitingonasmile still here!!!

Just on clean up mode of the house so I’m ready,y dh is working nights so he’s in bed, god help him when he gets up got a load of stuff for tip and to put in the loft,

Congratulations @MaybeBaby2 on the birth of your beautiful daughter!💕👌x

Gemxo · 28/12/2017 13:39

Congratulations on all our new arrivals!! It's all so exciting ❤️

Had my 36 week midwife app yesterday, told her I'd been having headaches the last couple of days and she checked my blood pressure which was quite high, she's booked me back in to be seen again in 1 week instead of 2 as this could be a sign of pre eclampsia Sad I thought if she thought it may be pre eclampsia it would be treated more seriously rather than me sent home to be seen in a week, still having the headaches but no protein in urine as of yesterday. Abit worried but if she didn't seem too concerned should I?

Waitingonasmile · 28/12/2017 13:51

Awww @Gemxo hopefully it'll all be ok. Just keep an eye on any swelling, visual disturbances, and headaches getting worse yourself. Don't take any chances and phone if you get any more symptoms.

I had it severely last time but was horrendously swollen with protein and out of control BP before the headaches started.
