Hi everyone, was in a thread for people due December 2019 but for some reason that was cancelled so thought I’d make a new one although someone might’ve already done one. I’m due December 29th although being induced on 17th as baby is measuring large 😂 can’t wait for this pregnancy to be over, I’ve got the worst back and pelvic pain plus I look and feel huge! Just want to meet my little girl 💗

Hi, I'm due on 24th December with baby no. 3! I have c-section booked for 19th because she's breech. I'm hoping she turns before then

Hiya wow that's a pretty impressive bump lol my due date was also the 29th December but being induced on sunday 15th I'm so ready too have this baby suffering terribly with spd also happy baby will be here for christmas

owlofathena · 09/12/2019 17:14

I'm also due on 24th December
Really hoping he comes early as I'm scared of having him on Christmas day. I have a December birthday and know how annoying it is, but least it's not actually on Christmas.
My first was a spontaneous labour at exactly a week early. I'm really hoping this is the same

Wow due on Christmas Eve, yeah that’s so close to Christmas! As I was due 29th I knew there was a chance she could come on Christmas so I’m glad I know she will definitely not come then 😂 and now she’s coming before Christmas I brought a really cute outfit for her to wear when I see my family Christmas Day 😂

Congratulations on your little girl!

I really can't wait for my little one to be here, but he seems perfectly content to kick my ribs continuously at the moment

@MumsyMum31what a lovely name 😍
@ohdearymemumof3 yes would be nice for her to come before Christmas, wow your 3rd, this is my first! Any advice? It’s scary having your 1st, feel like I have no idea what I’m doing 😂

@StephRae i know it is scary with your first because your going into the unknown but for me it doesn't get any easier I'm still equally as scared each time🙈 probably more so because now i know what's coming. I just hope its over quick.. advice, just go with what your body is telling you to do, breath, try and relax. I don't use pain relief, makes me feel so sick so with my first i had a water birth and i do recommend that to help with pain and relax you! Couldn't have one with my second because i bled when my waters broke so ended up having him while laying on a beanbag on the floor, wasnt great lol x good luck I'm sure you will be great x

Thank you, I’m planning on having a water birth as my cousin had one with her 2nd and said she couldn’t recommend it more x

Just got back from my 38 week midwife appointment where she said she will see me in two weeks. It's really depressing to think I might need to go there on Christmas Eve. Bring on this baby!

xTinkerbell · 11/12/2019 00:17

40+4. Induction booked for 19th but hoping this wee one gets a move on before then. Not hopeful though as cervix was completely closed yesterday at midwife appointment.

Started having contractions in the middle of the night and got all excited but now nothing seems to be happening so I’m just praying it starts again!

My beautiful girl Lavender Juliet was born by c-section today at 7:18am weighing 8 lbs 9 oz. it was a long and stressful labour but she’s finally here and we couldn’t be happier 💗

Congratulations did you go into labour your self then as I'm sure you said you was being induced ? Lovely weight hope your both well

ohdearymemumof3 · 13/12/2019 19:20

Congratulations!! Beautiful name and she wasnt that big considering the size of your bump! Thats good🥰 xx

jpaws · 13/12/2019 20:02

Congratulations x

owlofathena · 13/12/2019 20:15

Congratulations! Enjoy the newborn cuddles

Yes I went into labour, wasn’t going to be induced for a few days. She’s still a chunk but definitely expected her to weigh more, I was 37 weeks 5 days so imagine if I went full term 😂 already enjoyed lots of cuddles and breast fed her, she loves her food 💗

Jowd92 · 14/12/2019 03:45

Those newborn cuddles are the best enjoy every minute, I'm feeling super nervous now I'm 38 weeks tomorrow and being induced I'm excited but definitely more nervous!
