update from scampmum

19 hrs to 3cm

poor mite

all send labour vibes please....

ellie - she is delicious!!

I want one now!!!

Aww TA and Ellie - your babies are lovely!! So very, very cute!

To the overdue ladies - I will be joining you on Wednesday no doubt as I am officially due tomorrow but can't see it happening. Have my 40 week MW appointment tomorrow so will speak to her about a sweep - I am dying to meet my LO one now!!

VS - your little kitten is very cute!

mum2b - welcome!

I'm going to have my sweep on friday. don't leave me...

TA, Elli, your girls are so lovely!

peachy! old ladies - ok, they probably envy you your nice boobs or they don't see that far anyway, but this driver... weird!

to see me from the road is less than 24 inches! (one of those old terraced cottages).

saying that i bef in the car outide maplins (boys toys shop in cardiff) saturday, so can't be too embarssed...

I used to BF DS all over the place - one couple came up when i was in tesco cafe and started coo-ing over the baby and stroking his head saying "aren't babies beautiful when they're asleep?" I wasn't bothered but if they had realised what was going on they would have died of embarassment LOL!

I am now utterly brazen about bf in public! I think after 4.8 years of bf, you get that way!

Thanks for adding me chipmonkey. I've updated with weight below

I'll update more later - out of hospital now and SO glad to be home, but need to get a good sleep. That has to be the worst thing about being in hospital. As if it wasn't bad enough having a newborn baby to keep you awake!!!

I just wanted to say, for all those having sweeps, I was a bit down after mine last week. It felt like she barely did anything (had a sweep with DD1 and it was much more "vigorous"), I was only 1cm dilated and my cervix was posterior. Anyway, I had the sweep at 8.30am on Friday and had baby 8pm on Saturday night - shows what I know .

Ellie: Molly is gorgeous!!!! VS checked out your baby pic too and totally cute! All our babies are absolute stunners aren't they?
Jack is on the dummy too.. very chompy and sucky little baby he is!!

VS your kitten and his/her mummy are lovely, they look so settled together in the pic. Well done!!!!

Totally good luck with your sweeps moomin and carey

Wow.. I just realised its the 28th of April!!! Won't be long now until we are in May and all the babies are here!!!

Doesn't time fly once baby is born? o.O

It went so slow waiting for LO.. and now time just sweeps me off my feet.
Crazy.

Anyways... enough of my mindless blathering. Time for me to get my last night off of sleep before I have to go back to the hospital to take over from DP with baby Jack. Spoke to DP an hour ago and Jack is still doing tremendously well.

Night girls!!
xxx

My CS is booked for Wednesday but I have been having a lot of funny contractions on and off.

oooo... not long now chipmonkey.
You know.. contractions are so 'not' funny cos they like.. er.. hurt and stuff!

Yeah ok.. I'm still awake. Godsdammit.

Don't know what I did with my last post, thought it was longer than that!
Great to hear Jack is doing well, PFJ. Any idea how long he'll have to stay in?

another week they say...
sorry.. got distracted by my cats.

aRe you still trying to bf or has that totally gone by the wayside?

just saying hi

VS - i just am uber careful couldnt stand being pg again so soon....

i have an ill dh at home. he has man flu

Millie is gaining an ounce a day according to the mw's...yesterday she ws back up to 8lb 4oz. slept 9-12; 1-6.15 last night

Morning all

Oh for a nights sleep like that Scorpio, last night was feed at 10, 2, 5 then up at 6.30 - need to work on that 5am feed.

Chip - goodluck 4 tomorrow

i am crossing all my fingers - this is the fifth night in a row she has slept like that

Wonder how ellie is?

oh i see she has been on Beautiful Molly!!

Isn't she just

morning all!

still nothing here, have decided going to book reflexologist (sp?) for Saturday. Even if nothing happens, still a nice relaxing feeling

Cx

HI all,

Congrats on the new babies - they are all gorgeous! And so sorry to hear about Jack, PFJ. Its good to hear he's doing better.

Don't worry Eva - I'm still here too, babyless. Had a great weekend at a wedding, danced till 1.00am but paid for it yesterday...Then had some contractions last night but everything seems back to normal now. Got a sweep tomorrow. Really glad it didn't happen yesterday as I was miles away from being ready. DH still hasn't put cot together, and I just realised that I haven't got any mattress sheets. Got car seat and TENS machine yesterday afternoon, so nearly ready...and gorgeous DD was fab yesterday and watched Cbeebies for most of the afternoon [very bad lazy mummy emoticon]
Has anyone heard from Soph?

TA yeah Denise Pemberton is the lady who came out to me in Leicester. I'll add a link to her website

I used to help out at her breastfeeding circle in Leicester which is basically a breastfeeding support group. I see that she also does one in Beeston. They are actually really good if you have any problems and they only cost £5 if you live anywhere near Beeston.

Scorpio, am at your nights - I thought mine were good with 2 wake ups. Still I can't complain.
