Due in April 2007 - Will someone please tell Ellie she can go to Post-Natal now she's had her baby!

[EllieKthePA]

I know Maveta, but hey, everyone's gotta complain about something, haven't they? AIBU for complaining that I'm fat, uncomfortable, hot and can't move properly?

Emmymummy - yes fat sausages feels strangely appropriate..

Hi Elkiedee! Don´t be disheartened by your mw, there´s still hope til the fat lady sings.. or something Besides, of course technically the baby can still turn if it´s not engaged but I don´t think it´s particularly likely is it? Positive thoughts, positive thoughts! x

follow the light babies, follow the light ............ there's a stealth polar bear at the end!

Lol Ellie. Like it!

Emmymummy - of course you are! Sheesh, some people.

Ellie - good point. In which case, Emmymummy, CD, Katy44 and I have to give birth today and then you can use my suggested title. How´s that for a deal?

Yes Maveta, like the way you're thinking!

Lol Ellie, I like it.. even if it did bring up a mental image of Katy44 in her dressing gown being the first sight my baby sees as it´s head emerges No offensive Katy--

ok Maveta, in the unlikely event that you all give birth today i will start a new thread with your title

Right everyone then, Ellie's issued a challenge. OK, breath and p u s h........

should i warn CD?

I'm up for giving birth today, now will someone tell me the magic secret that starts labour?

Yes you'd better text her. I'm sure she wouldn't want to let the side down

maveta, I'd be pulling the polar bear face too - you know, long and slightly puzzled!

Where is CD this morning? Has she been on?

Ellie - weren´t we just talking about POSITIVE thoughts?? LOL or is that different from completely ludicrous thoughts? hmmm.. dammit.

I must say I have not felt ANYTHING in the last few days that would indicate I am any closer to giving birth than I was several weeks ago. siiiiiiiigh. Any dh´s family is all being really helpful and have decided I am definitely not giving birth before the next full moon (next wednesday??) although at this stage if that was guaranteed I´d take it over the possibility of waiting another week more.. uurgh.

Why not before the next full moon Maveta?

thread crash*

have any of you tried Caullophyllum (homeopathic remedy that brings on a fast labour if you are ready for it... see LG&T on our may thread for this week...) want to know if it works!!!

Ooooooo sounds interesting. Where would we get some of that then?

Hmm...tempting...off to investigate

from the natural childbirth site

looks like it might be the same as blue cohosh

Oooh oooh . going to look into that.. mind you it´d probably take 10 days to arrive here!

Emmymummy - because apparently more babies are born at the full moon, something to do with tides etc etc.

no, don't think I'm going to try it - reactions seem mixed so far

i'm updating the stats, there are a couple on the list at the bottom that haven't posted on MN in 2007 at all, shall i take them off?

I would Ellie, we can always add them on again when we get an update.
Thanks for organising us BTW!
