pregnabrain · 16/05/2008 11:08

hello!

good luck with dd's birthday do today, LM74 (can't help but think of R2D2 when I type that!).

duchess - sending 'stay put' vibes your way. how long do you want?

bbm - lovely of your health visitor to lay the negativity on so thick. I'm sure that's just what you needed . It's great to hear you're feeling so positive about everything. You seem very much in control of your situation.

I'm bored of waiting.....bubba seems too comfortable in there. I wish I could say the same for me.

otter1980 · 16/05/2008 11:13

Pregnabrain - thank god!!! I was worried that everyone had gone into labour and I would be sat here on my lonesome for ever waiting for LO to arrive!!!

Im trying to convince myself that LO's reluctant to come out will carry over when she comes out and I will have a calm relaxed baby etc (not really working...)

KangaAndRoo · 16/05/2008 12:27

Otter and pregnabrain can I join your bored of waiting club? I must like cooking babies too long!! I would even go as far to say I would LOVE to be in slow labour at least I knew things would be doing something but not even a twinge!!! and after 2 bloomin sweeps too!!

Kanga xx term+2 grrrr lol

TheDuchessOfNorksBride · 16/05/2008 12:52

Well I'm delighted that nothing is happening here - the baby can arrive anytime from Monday evening, that would be most convenient (but definitely before June, DS1 is the 5th and I'm the 11th so it's too crowded already)! I have swimming galas and blacksmiths visits and DS1s best friends party etc in the next 3 days (next week is just work, pre-school committee meeting and catching up with friends, which can all wait)!!

There is lots of talk amongst school mums of my bump having dropped but it doesn't look or feel any different to me.

Is anyone sleeping better? I actually had about 6 hours last night (with one visit to the loo at about 3.30am). So why was I yawning before I'd even finished breakfast?

newbishad · 16/05/2008 12:53

Hi all,

Congratulations to all the arrivals. I always check the thread!

I'm still here as well though I've been posting on the end of May begining of June thread. My induction is planned for the 26th May so I feel more of the May group now.

Lots of love, NS XXX

otter1980 · 16/05/2008 14:38

yay people!!! Glad to see that some of us are still this side of babydom

kangaAndRoo - the trend seems to be that people have nothing, get some twinges and then have a baby that night... so maybe you LO is just waiting to take you by suprise...

re sleep - i had been really good and its gone in last few days, did have a nap today though which was lovely...

well DP has decided that baby will now arrive this weekend (with his magic crystal ball y'see ) but as of monday we will be at our EDD (never thought we'd reach that) which is a whole week after I'd worked our date out as! this does mean that baby will actually be term+10 (by my dates) when she comes out which is normal for induction. I feel a strange sense of satisfaction at that, like i got one over the nasty consultant (despite climbing the walls waiting for baby...)

right eviction notices for all bumps (whose mummies want them) except DON's bump who has to stay put until monday evening!!! still suspiciously quieter than usual on here....

gingerwench · 16/05/2008 15:36

I'm so jealous of all those who've had their babies I've still got 2 weeks to my EDD of 29th May so keeping busy and starting to enjoy maternity leave...not much more necessary to do, but several things to keep me occupied including MN and freecycling our rubbish unwanted stuff that has accumulated.

Fleurie76 · 16/05/2008 16:13

Hello all,

Had mw 39 wk appointment today and baby 2/5ths engaged, same as last week so don't feel I've made much progress. Had absolutely no twinges or any signs at all, so I'd like to join the fed up of waiting club too!

I think I may even need my first eviction notice please

However went for a manicure and pedicure today so feeling indulged!

BBM your HV sounds a charmer! Great 'bed-sde' manner!

LM74 Good luck with the party today, hope it isn't as bad as you've been fearing!

mayx3 · 16/05/2008 16:22

Hello all, Well I'd always convinced myself that today was going to be the day, but it doesn't seem to be.

Fleurie76 hope you're feeling better today.

My appt at hospital to try and change my induction from tues to later in the week did not exactly go well. Dr was happy to change it and then he took my blood pressure and it was just a teeny weeny bit high (once) so I got sent for blood tests etc etc. After lots of hanging around all was declared fine, but they didn't want to change date after that and I was so relieved all OK that I couldn't face pushing it - yet again - I think they give me these scares deliberately. Hey ho... Please come before tues baby.... On the positive side I had progressed a little and they were able to do a sweep so hopefully that might set things off.

Come on babies, surely this is the weekend you want to come (apart from those who need to stay put a bit longer!)

Off for a walk round the park (though bit grey here) to try and encourage things along...

mayx3 · 16/05/2008 16:24

Got distracted mid post so cross posted with Fleurie76. Eviction vibes being sent, but at 40+6 I'd like some really strong ones back please!

Birth announcement
My baby boy(no name yet) was born at 10:21am on monday morning by planned c-section weighing a rather large 10lbs 5 ozs. Landed up staying in hospital until lunch time today because they thought he had an infection due to a funny noise he was making so spent time in special care and on anti biotics. But got the all clear yesterday and we are pleased to be home. And I feel well.
Congrats to all the new moms and babies, will catch up soon

KangaAndRoo · 16/05/2008 17:56

Ah mitchell! I was wondering where you'd got to. Congratulations and I'm glad your new son is well and you're both now happily ensconced at home.

Coolmama · 16/05/2008 21:08

Just a quick note to say thank you for all the lovely messages you left for me on Wed morning.

We welcomed Catharine into our family on Wed evening and she is gorgeous!!! 7lbs 4 oz and feeding like a champion. She was a complete shock as I was convinced I was carrying a boy!

Will post more later, but just wanted to say thank you to all on the thread who had me in mind - all the positive vibes definitely did the trick!

Cat99 · 16/05/2008 21:31

Hello

I'm new, just wanted to introduce myself. I'm due on 22nd May, first baby, we know he's a boy!

Congratulations to all the new parents.
