Just popping in to say Goodnight properly!!

Night!!

Have taken some tabs .... so let's see if they'll actually have any effect .....

How long did they take to work (i.e getting BH etc) for other people??

Hi from the june thread...you lot are starting to scare us now with all the speedy labours....beginning to wonder whether the raspberry leaf tea is a good idea

Big Congrats to all

Tili · 20/04/2007 22:53

hi all.

Big congrats to all of you who have given birth while I ve been off. Glad to hear you are all well. I am very SOSPL as you were due after me, all these queue jumpers its a disgrace !!

So once again big congrats to all new mummies.and good luck to those still waiting I shall be thinking of you all.

Tili · 20/04/2007 22:54

oh and before I forget congrats on winning the appeal Octo xx

liath · 21/04/2007 02:25

Congratulations to Bubbaloo!! Another April quickie.

Well done Eca but ouch & hope the haematoma settles down fast.

Weeonion has been quiet so am really hoping it's because she's in labour.

My boobs just woke me up becuase they're engorged and ds is still alseep, grrrr! Feel like I've got two red-hot footballs sitting on my chest.

Pesha · 21/04/2007 04:27

Anyone awake?

Been awake for couple hours now, have done the washing up I was too tierd to do last night, straightened my hair, been back to bed but still couldnt sleep so have got back up again!

Had a show last night which I know can still mean weeks but with DD never had one and ds it was just a couple hours before he was born. Have ben having some very painful contractions but not that many. Seem to be triggered by movement which is same as last time but not frequent enough for me to get too excited about. Getting some really bad pains too from baby being so low or awkward position or something, not sure what it is but it hurts!

Anyway off to catch up on thread now and see if we've any more bubbas

liath · 21/04/2007 05:09

I'm awake, ds wanting to feed every half an hour. Have a horrible feeling I'm developing breast thrush again.....grrrrr.

Are you contracting, Pesha or just insomnia?

Pesha · 21/04/2007 05:11

Well done on the school appeal Octo - must be such a huge relief

LLL - sorry to hear your birth experience was so difficult, sounds terrifying actually and has made me tearful just reading it (but then it is half 4 in the morning and im possibly in labour so if you'd said it was wonderful I expect Id be the same!) but so glad all was ok and you have your beautiful baby boy. And glad that the hospital were so good.
And I remember being scared to have a poo but when I did it was fine!

CONGRATULATIONS LUCEWHEEL

CONGRATULATIONS ZAZAS So, so glad you got the birth you wanted this time, thats fantastic (and Im close to tears again so is definitely just me!)

Eca - another amazing birth story, what is it with all these babies popping out in such a rush?! Hope the heamatoma (sp!) gets sorted soon (or whatever it is that you need to happen to stop it hurting!), but glad you've got a gorgeous baby to help take your mind off it!

CONGRATULATIONS BUBALOO

Ellie sorry your having a hard time with your boys, hope you've had a better night tonight.

Now off to check emails to see RH's pics

CaptainDippy · 21/04/2007 05:12

I'm here too - couldn't sleep.

CaptainDippy · 21/04/2007 05:13

Hi Liath & Pesha!

Pesha · 21/04/2007 05:15

Hi liath - sorry bout your boobs! But if you've had it before hopefully recognising it early will help you to stop it before it gets too bad.

Am having quite painful contractions about every 12 mins but not as painful as they were so now thinking perhaps its another false start again

Pesha · 21/04/2007 05:15

Hi CD

Pesha · 21/04/2007 05:25

Just seen Im 3rd on the waiting list How scary is that?!?

Although why Im not quite sure seeing as Im overdue and more than ready to get this baby out now Still seems scary somehow though!
And that waiting list seems ever so short all of a sudden doesnt it?

Pesha · 21/04/2007 05:27

Yep, thread title is definitely spot on!!

CaptainDippy · 21/04/2007 05:28

No - still here!

CaptainDippy · 21/04/2007 05:28

Yes, the waiting list is now scarily short! Eeeeek!

Pesha · 21/04/2007 05:31

Yay

Although saying that I am gonna have to go back to bed soon and leave you

Pg is such a PITA, just when you really need as much sleep as you possibly can with a baby on the way, you cant! And no sleep is no sleep, its not something you really need practise or preparing for is it?!

CaptainDippy · 21/04/2007 05:32

Not really. I'll be going back to bed soon too hon, do need try and get some sleep ....

Pesha · 21/04/2007 05:34

Whats the betting the LOs wait until 5 mins after we've fallen asleep and then wake up! Luckily mine are old enough I can tell em to naff off and leave me alone Will your dh get up with yours?

CaptainDippy · 21/04/2007 05:37

No chance - he is crap at getting up in the mornings! Also our two are quite a handful so we usually deal with them together - I haven't had a lie-in, in 3 and a bit yrs! Even if he did try and give me a lie-in, they'd be making loads of din and wantingto come and see me etc. Poop! Anyway, should really go and get some rest ......

"See" you later honey! xxxx

Pesha · 21/04/2007 05:40

Yep you definitely should then

See you soon

nellyhel · 21/04/2007 08:49

Delighted to let you know that Fraser John finally arrived on Thursday 19th at 4:00 a.m. He was 8 lb 13 oz, 54 cm long so a good size. We are all fine, came home the next day (yesterday). Fraser's sleeping well so far, dd and ds are delighted with their wee brother.

Sending an e-mail with details, hope it makes sense as I cant concentrate with excited dh/dd/ds this morning!

Hope to catch up on mn soon, congratulations to arrivals I've missed and good luck to those still hanging on!

maveta · 21/04/2007 09:02

CONGRATS NELLYHEL and BUBBALOO!!! Two more little boys, fab!! Well done girls..

Well that´s two more graduates to the PN thread.. the ´waiting´ list really really is getting short now and Pesha, you´re now second in line!! How are the pains going, did they come to anything? I do hope so. And weeonion?

After my hideous night before last I slept amazingly last night again with no further twinges, aches or pains to indicate anything other than that this baby is staying put. Ho Hum. Can´t believe how quiet it is on here.. just when those of us who are left are reaching our boredom limit and need to while away the hours talking on MN.. there´s no one around! Oh well.. we´ll be on the PN thread before we know it girls!!

CD - re. RLT I really can´t say I noticed any increase in BHs or anything and I´ve been taking them for almost 2 weeks. Hopefully they´re doing something anyway!!

Have a fab day everyone xx

CaptainDippy · 21/04/2007 09:14

Morning - managed to get back to sleep for a couple of hours - DD1 woke me up by coming into our room about half 7, which was nice. bit of a lie-in for them and us. DD2 still being Psycho Beast!

Congratulations!! - To Nellyhell on the birth of wee Fraser John - Looking forward to hearing more and seeing pics etc when you have a bit more time away from your over-excited brood!! Wonderful news.....

We're not "hanging on" - Hey, some of us haven't even reached our due dates yet!!!

Right, going to go and take some more RLT tabs and heave myself into the shower ..... I got lots of weird tummy pain after I took the tabs last night ..... anyone else experienced this!!?
