So sorry for the TMI but I just had a feeling of something 'coming out' so I dashed to the loo and OMG I had globby stuff that just kept coming and coming and coming,I thought I was pulling my insides out! No more blood though. Have bad cramps again now.

Like I said so sorry for the TMI but I think I'm in shock!

PuzzleRocks · 24/04/2009 10:00

Like the acute bit of a contraction. The last one was yesterday morning though so i'm hoping that was the last. Now i'm just finding my stitches really uncomfortable. The skin layer seems to be gapng a bit. Sorry if TMI.

frekkles · 24/04/2009 10:05

LaurenIsMoreThanReadyToPop61 · 24/04/2009 10:12

surprise i want globby stuff!!!!

surprisenumber3 · 24/04/2009 10:27

lol Lauren, it was shocking! Funny really though, as I was moaning a few weeks ago that I wanted a proper show this time as I never had one with my other two. Guess I got my wish! I thought I had got rid of most of it after my sweep last week but obviously not!

Well DH off today so we're going to have a curry, a walk and I need some more nursing bras as mine are worn out already and I only bought them a couple of months ago but have been wearing them as soooo comfy!!

surprisenumber3 · 24/04/2009 10:29

ooh have just seen another thread soon2be started in childbirth - I reckon she is in the throes of it or delivered by now

surprisenumber3 · 24/04/2009 10:30

Happy due date Frekkles, hope you're feeling okay today.

BoffinMum · 24/04/2009 10:31

Battery going on laptop but some quick responses:

nutty - CONGRATS!!!!!! Finally!!!!!

BB - no wonder you are feeling daunted and tired, as you are doing far too much, you mental woman! Your visitors should be doing most of this, otherwise what is the point of them coming? They should not just be there cooing over the baby, you should set them to WORK!

Soon2be - sounds like very low ligament pain. Put feet up as much as poss.

Juwe - He's just being an unsettled newborn. Nearly all of them are. Try daytime naps in it as well as nighttime.

Springy - Totally normal, all that angst and frustration. Try negotiating a regular slot to have a shower and get yourself centred sans baby, even 20 minutes is good. Ignore crying - they come to no harm. Try dummy. And swaddling.

Trista - Congrats to you as well!!!! Lots of babies on this thread now - lovely lovely lovely.

Must sleep - up all night. Ciaou for now. xx

BoffinMum · 24/04/2009 10:33

PS Nobody is allowed to moan about figures as I am 15 stone and a size 22 Tesco value jeans. Really that's a bad as it probably gets. I too live in pyjamas. I had a nice figure before November!!!

Carameli · 24/04/2009 11:34

Hi all,

congrats to all the new babies here. Just on for a minute or two as ordering stuff for new ensuite. Want to get it delivered when dh is on leave with me so that he can deal with it all. Ensuite not ready but want to get my sanctuary, no children allowed bath which have found at great price

Feeling fed up with being pregnant today, jsut want to get on with it now and I am not even due yet. Get really grumpy with dd and ds. I think dd like going to school more than being at home with her grumpy mummy at the moment.

Going to get a sandwich and a cup of tea to chill out.

frekkles · 24/04/2009 11:36

MW she say 3/5 palpable, bloodpressure and all that fine, see you next week. fuck knows why i'm so cheerful! but i am and I'm off to climb Arthur's seat!

ciao bellas x

BabyBolat · 24/04/2009 12:06

Carameli - fingers crossed your bathroom renovations will bring on labour too - even if it is just ordering!

Yay Frekkles - look at you with your engagement - enjoy the walk!

bronze · 24/04/2009 13:16

Congratulations Nutty

Frekkles and Conker thinking of you today

Carameli · 24/04/2009 13:46

Can I just scream out loud, my darling ds wa with me in the ktichen when I was cleaning. Went to answer the door and he grabbed a dettol multi 4-1 spray from sink somehow!! then proceeded to show me how he sprayed it in his mouth. queue panic stricken mother phoning gp. they said he will be fine as its not bleach to jsut keep and eye on him and nt to worry if he is not looking ill or has a sore mouth/throat. Hopefully he only got a slight taste. Just what I needed today.

Sorry just had to scream to someone

tristaleejac · 24/04/2009 13:57

yay, congrats to nutty and soon2b

FWIW I'd pretty well given up on going into labour naturally to those still waiting and when it happened there had been no sign all day what so ever!

surprisenumber3 · 24/04/2009 14:48

yay congrats soon2be!

I've given up brettgirl
