Due June 2020: thread 6

[AndddddHerewegoagain]

Hi everyone. Hope you don't mind me setting up the new thread didn't want to run out of space on the other one!

Good luck @AmyMaria2 how exciting!!

I agree with everyone this thread has been a life line throughout, especially now more than ever! We should definitely have a new mums thread.

@Magpie21 I had to remove my rings a while ago!
My feet are also so swollen feels like I am walking around in really tight shoes if that makes sense.

36+5

@Magpie21 I had to remove my rings last week too! They were getting slightly tight and I didn't want to leave them and they get stuck!

Good luck @AmyMaria2 so exciting!!

Omg! I just woke up and checked the group!
@AmyMaria2 good luck! I'm so excited for you! Praying it all goes well!
Ladies, it has begun! We are actually at the stage where babies are coming! Oh my goodness!

As a couple of people already mentioned, keen for a new mum group when we've all popped :)

Good Luck @AmyMaria2 !!
You've got this!

@AmyMaria2 good luck Lovie ! Hope all goes well

Anyone else thinking they better Get a bag packed & start getting prepared 🙈

@Mj2196 I'm packing my bag at the moment! Just waiting on a couple of bits being delivered today and then I should have everything. I'm only 34+4 so I probably have a while to go yet but I don't want DH having to pack it in a mad rush if there's an emergency or anything!!

I had mine mostly done but they needed a bit of organisation and I wanted to organise the other clothes we have into sizes etc. So I did all that last night after having to go into triage after my midwife sent me at my 36 week appt. I think I'm just about done. I have even written a detailed list of a few last minute things I'll need so DH can just grab them, too. Car seat is already in the car and I've just ordered more snack and drinks to come in my click and collect shop tomorrow. I'm 36+3 so think it was time to get it finished! Today's job is to get to grips with the TENS machine I've been lent by my cousin.

@chocolate26 I tried to order it all online , ended up just doing a full sweep in boots so just need to get it in the bag 😂I’m only 35+3 but feels like a kick up the bum. debating to get dp to build the snuzpod this week and get practising the car seat ,But part of me still feels like it’s too early or bad luck 🤦🏻‍♀️

@AmyMaria2 ahhh !! Just saw this !!! I'm so excited ! Good luck!!! Xxx

I was thinking the same just yesterday - it would be a shame to lose the thread after babies are born. Definitely a new mum thread ! xx

35+3 today

@Mj2196 that's good you managed to get it all from boots! My sister got me mini toiletries from a supermarket when she was shopping and the rest of the stuff I've ordered online, needed new pyjamas and loungewear for after baby is born.

As for the snuzpod and car seat we have had ours sitting next to our bed since we got it weeks ago! The isofix base is in the car already but the car seat is still in the box indoors. I'd say do it when you feel it's right! Better to be prepared and have snuzpod built though I think! Even if you leave it in another room for now.

For sure! They have them over in Being a Parent -> Postnatal clubs

It will be all about feeding and sleep and laundry stains haha

34week appointment all ok this morning.
Growth scan tomorrow but shes not worried as she thinks im measuring smaller due to her being so low in my pelvis....shes done this most of my pregnancy 😂
Im so excited though to see her on the screen tomorrow I've not seen her since 20wk scan.

@AmyMaria2 good luck lovely ❤

34+3

Hi all, hope you don't mind me jumping on.
I've just had a date for my elected c-section on 8th June
Getting so close.
Be nice to chat to people due in June.

35+3

Don't know about anyone else but this sums up my current feelings exactly

@Kez437 hahaha! This is literally the summary of my life now!

Welcome to all the new ladies :)

Currently packing my hospital bag again. Suddenly feeling like this is happening soon!

37+1

@HayleyD84 aww that's my due date!!

@chocolate26
I’m going to build it and stick a sheet over it In the corner 😂we were supposed to move To A 3 bed before all this but it’s on hold &haven’t got the room in dd’s room 🙈 . Oo I might order a few treats for afterwards I love new pjs ! Il probably end up wearing my mat clothes for months after haha

@HayleyD84 that’s my due date also !

@HayleyD84 your original due date I mean 🙈. I’ve been given the 8th for my provisional section date also

@Kez437 so true. Just want to go to sleep up and wake up on birth day!

@AmyMaria2 hope you're having baby snuggles!! Or are very close to them.

39 weeks today. Keep having twinges but they keep disappearing again! Have a consultant appointment at 40 weeks next week. DS is going back to nursery as i have no childcare. So excited, counting down the days (I mean that in the nicest way but a day off from my 3 year old is going to be like a holiday!)

@Andddddherewegoagain I keep checking in here to see if there's an update on @Amymaria2. I hope all is going well! I can't believe you're 39 weeks now! I reckon you'll be next!

@Apd1981 not going to lie I'll be fuming if everyone starts popping babies out before me. 😂
I went to 40+10 with DS so not holding out much hope
