Congratulations @Ruthcarr1990

MegRam · 13/01/2018 05:53

To all the ladies still waiting for their little ones, feeling emotional and fed up, and those going through it all right now, just wanted to say YOU CAN DO IT and it is SO worth it on the other side.

Me and Ramlet have had a really hard time over the last few days as we haven't been able to establish breastfeeding and the heartache has been unbearable, BUT we're coming out the other side now, and nothing beats the feeling of holding your baby to your chest while they sleep peacefully.

Keep going girls, we got this xxxx

January 18 #7 The one with all the arrivals
cheshiremama89 · 13/01/2018 06:17

Wow @MegRam @Ruthcarr1990 what beautiful babies!
Thank you for your words of encouragement, 38+2 and feeling very fed up!

Raspberry lead tea, and clary sage oil arrived in the post yesterday so may try them this weekend!!! Grin xx

wapphighwood · 13/01/2018 09:20

Congratulations to the ladies with new arrivals!

Maybebaby2 · 13/01/2018 09:25

@Iamchanging I'm certain your time will come soon and you will have your rainbow baby wishing you all the luck in the world xx

@hanna87 huge congratulations on the birth of your baby girl Anaya! Sorry you had a hard time with the hospital thankfully you are both ok. Hope you are recovering well from all that blood loss, how are you feeling?

@Ruthcarr1990 and @MegRam huge congratulations to you both on the births of your beautiful babies! I love seeing pics of our new arrivals! So gorgeous and tiny!

@MegRam sorry you couldn't establish breast feeding, it's so difficult isn't it! At least you know you tried that's all that matters so please don't feel bad about it. Has she taken to the bottle better?

LinaBl · 13/01/2018 09:46

so nice to see things happening!
Its my Edd today, and baby girl is not showing any signs of wanting to see the outside world.
Had a tough time starting Mon with my slipped disc L4/5 and PGP, had to go to hosp on Tue because baby almost did not move (I was in such an agony with my back and hips - I guess she stopped squirming much as it would put me in pain). Then had awesome osteopath session on Wed - wow! she unlocked my spine, hips. Amazing woman - she did have a bad PGP herself when pregnant - I did not have to explain much. I felt like a new person after a session, and baby girl also started wriggling about the same way as before. Such a relief!
Not a single dr said I could take something for pain - glad to read there are options though.

Mortigua · 13/01/2018 10:15

Linabl that sounds awful Poor you glad you are sorted more now. I had a similar thing with the chiropractor who really helped with my SPD.

My due date too today and I'm seriously fed up. Planned a day of looking round the shops as feel I need distracting and DH can have the kids but I am tired , feel heavy and worried about not being able to park, walking and pain etc. Just feel like crying! I know it's silly as it's not even like I'm over yet but ugh I have had it with th3 false alarms

Maybebaby2 · 13/01/2018 10:46

I fell over with baby in my arms yesterday 😔 We were out for tea celebrating DS birthday. Baby was in car seat, as we were getting ready to leave I took baby out of car seat to put cardigan on. I went to sit down on the chair nearest me, which had been my mum's chair but the chair wasn't there anymore! I hit the floor cradling baby in my arms trying to stop myself from falling forward and squashing, dropping or bumping her. She was absolutely fine and did t even wake up. I on the other hand was really shaken up, I shouted so loud the whole place turned to look. I called my poor mum a stupid woman because I thought she had pulled the chair out not realising I was going to sit down. She hadnt pulled it out, but the weight of her handbag had caused it to topple over and it had hit the leg of an old man sat behind us! Bit of a disaturous outing really! Main thing is baby was ok and not hurt but I keep playing it over in my head. Not venturing out of the house today, staying home and cuddling up on the sofa!!

Allmychildrenhavepaws · 13/01/2018 11:43

Beautiful babies ladies! Congrats! Flowers

Those of you who have reached your due date have my sympathies...and emapthies...if thats a word!?

Things happening here i think, been having a huge clear out since yesterday! Tmi, sorry. Very unlike meas have had such bad toilet troubles. He dropped yesterday too which im taking as a good sign being no.2.
Pains are getting worse but not regular yet. Just have to wait and see!

Re red raspberry leaf tea, although a goid thing to try, its one of those things that really needs to be started around the wk32 mark and gradually built up, as it has an accumulative effect and takes several weeks to build up in system. But it cant hurt to try can it! Best of luck.

Not long now guys!

Allmychildrenhavepaws · 13/01/2018 12:01

Just had my bloody show guys!!! Grin

star1980 · 13/01/2018 12:06

Allmychildrenhavepaws me too! Started coming at 2am but properly appeared when I got up this morning! Have you been having contractions? I had some in the night but all seems quiet again this morning.

Good luck!!

StylishDuck · 13/01/2018 12:08

Finally baby is here! Meet Harris. Born this morning at 6.30. Weighing in at a whopping 8lb 15oz. Ended up needing a section as the wee monkey was a face presentation and my labour stalled at 5cm. It was a long hard slog but he's so worth it Smile

StylishDuck · 13/01/2018 12:09

Forgot photo Blush

StylishDuck · 13/01/2018 12:10

Photo didn't work. In my defence I've been awake since Thursday morning. I'll figure it out in a minute...

Mortigua · 13/01/2018 17:57

Stylishduck (and others) congratulations!
Good luck allmychildrenhavepaws and star1980.
I went shopping which perked me up a bit then I had a nap and have been having pains again, really quite sore at times but again all over the place and they stop if I move about so Braxtons hicks.
Been using the birth odds website posted on another thread and its not helping me feel it will happen any time soon! Need to keep busy I guess.

emilyba · 13/01/2018 19:14

Eek congratulations to all of you who have met your bubbas already, so exciting!

I'm 38+1 still pretty comfortable and sleeping for England... seriously like 8-10 hours a night. I would feel bad but I figure it's best to get in as much sleep as possible right?! Just wet myself with a sneeze tho Confused

Unfortunately baby is breach so I have a section booked for the 23rd Jan which I feel ok about but nervous of the recovery.

@Ruthcarr1990 how was your c section? I'm worried about not being able to lift my baby to cuddle, feed, change nappies for those first few hours/days. Congratulations too!!!

Any advice from any of you about how I can be best prepared when I'm in hospital/those first few days back home? DP will be on hand to help till he gets kicked out of hospital at 10pm and obviously when I get home but he's not the most... intuitive of people shall we say... Grin
I'm about to order arnica tablets and peppermint tea..

Ruthcarr1990 · 13/01/2018 20:14

@emilyba it’s was ok, I kept appolgising to my partner as I was like pass me this and can u just do that. Told him I didn’t mean to treat him like a slave had spinal at 9 am was walking around by 4 xx

emilyba · 13/01/2018 23:27

@Ruthcarr1990 Awh can't be helped! At least he must have felt useful!
That seems so quick that you were up and about! Really good to hear. I hope you are getting lots of rest and being looked after Smilexx

Ruthcarr1990 · 13/01/2018 23:47

@emilyba I’m at home now going to be another long night as little man has decided to wake up. He is a dream tho. Do you have a c section booked? Xxx

emilyba · 14/01/2018 00:12

@Ruthcarr1990 aw I bet he is Smilemust be lovely to be home with him.
Yes c section is booked for the 23rd so 9 days to go now xx

wapphighwood · 14/01/2018 14:32

Our baby boy arrived this morning! Exhausted after a tough labour but over the moon...now to decide on a name.....

Fleetwoodmac2 · 15/01/2018 08:27

Please meet Chester! He was born at 3.17am on the 9th of January, weighing 7lb exactly, following a horrific 100+ hour induction.

He's been in the neonatal intensive care unit since his birth (suspected sepsis and then jaundice) but finally came home last night.

We are absolutely smitten.

January 18 #7 The one with all the arrivals
cheshiremama89 · 15/01/2018 10:01

@wapphighwood @Fleetwoodmac2 congratulations!

I wonder how many of us are left!!!??!?!!

I'm due 25th and honestly don't feel ready, no symptoms at all!!

Anyone else felt like this a couple of weeks before? Xx

katmarie · 15/01/2018 10:13

Congratulations to all with new babies!! Still waiting here, 39+5 today, sweep booked for Wednesday. Not looking forward to that!

Mortigua · 15/01/2018 12:31

I will be 40+3 at my first sweep , I'm not sure why as with my last child it was offered at just before 40 weeks then another after 3 days. This midwife is saying she will do one at 40+3 then try again at 41+3 and that seems a long wait to me?
