Congratulations alapala, rivermoon and euromum!! Some lovely names - great taste in names euromum - thats what we called ds1

Ds2 is currently being tended by dh as he's got himself into a real state as he's so warm and if I'm near all he wants to do is feed, but then drinks so much he's sick! Ds1 on the other hand has a hacking cough, is sweating away but still wants to have his duvet over him - think its gonna be a long night

runningmonkey · 31/05/2009 21:26

Congrats EUROMUM

Yes still here 2nd sweep this pm and no changes totally fed up now

Sorry to be such a moaner, just feel like i am letting everyone down by not producing a baby yet. Sorry me me me again will disappear off now will try to be more cheery tomorrow

runningmonkey · 31/05/2009 21:28

Just remembered CHOC'S induction is tomorrow isn't it? If you are reading choc hope it goes well x

Grumpyoldcaaaaaaaa · 31/05/2009 21:33

chocbunnies is indeed being induced tomorrow, I got a text from her earlier, she wasn't feeling too hot, I hope she's ok.

runningmonkey it's crap, isn't it? I should be getting a 2nd sweep on Tuesday, but ...........

we're home to 1 handed typing..

well done euromum - that was our backup name!

Induction - its the way to go - MILES better than 1st birth - story to follow when i work out how to manage 2 children!

Momino · 31/05/2009 22:50

congrats Euro, love the name!

Runningmonkey, Grumpy, and others over due, sorry you're feeling rubbish. it can't be long now. it can't!

silly but i miss us all being on the same thread. I've got to jump to the other one to catch up with that thread as well.

had a lovely day going to a 2nd birthday party at a park in the beautful sun. girls had a lot of fun playing with other children and daddy and I sat in the shade with Harper. ate lots of junk and cake. bliss . all these cake calories are staying in my middle (i look at least 5 mos pregnant still), but I can't stop. sigh.

hope you're all sleeping peacefully or at least relaxing.

chocolatebunnies · 31/05/2009 23:08

Hi everyone,

Just a flying post from me,

Am being induced tomorrow, have to ring up in the morning, am very very nervous, scared, etc! Please send me luck as I am shitting it!

Congrats to all the new babies,

Come on Grumpy we can do it!

See you on the other side

Grumpyoldcaaaaaaaa · 31/05/2009 23:13

chocbunnies Don't be scared, but be prepared for a possible very, very long wait, followed by a few frenzied hours.

Make sure you speak up the instant you need pain relief, shout!!!

And see you on the other side maybe Wed/Thurs for me!!

You'll be fine, I will be thinking of you tomorrow (in a slightly way)

xxxxx

frazzledoldbag · 01/06/2009 07:10

Blottedcopybook · 01/06/2009 07:33

Good luck Choc!

runningmonkey · 01/06/2009 09:43

Morning folks,

choco hope today goes well, will be thinking of you.

grumpy hope you are ok today.

alapala glad your induction went well.

euro love the pics of theo - the eyes open ones are soooo cute!

Fi lovely pics of Grace too.

Still no signs here besides some tightening last night but I feel a bit less poo today as I think I had a couple of hours quality sleep which hasn't happened the last few nights. At least I know the end is in sight for tomorrow.

Enjoy the sunshine ladies.

Grumpyoldcaaaaaaaa · 01/06/2009 10:52

Morning all!

Ooooh good luck chocbunnies

Just booked DD2's swimming lesson block - they start at 5pm tonight. Does anyone reckon that will hasten labour so that it will happen today?

Another night of no sleep/inability to move/need to be rescued by DH. Really pissing me off now, I hope my pelvis improves after birth. Which should be by Wednesday night

Grumpyoldcaaaaaaaa · 01/06/2009 10:54

Oh and runningmonkey glad you're feeling a little better - you're going to beat me by 1 day I KNEW I'd be the last.

Pah, bah, gah and hah!

OP posts:
runningmonkey · 01/06/2009 11:18

Morning grumpy ooh yes, I am putting money on your waters going at 4.45 this afternoon and you needing a mad dash to hospital

don't count on being last, I am hoping not to echo my friend's recent 45 hour epic but what's the betting I do.

Grumpyoldcaaaaaaaa · 01/06/2009 11:28

I love our competitive 'last one birthing' running

I suppose it will be ok if my waters break at the swimming pool. I'll just hop in the water and get mooing.

45 hour labour, oooooh . DD1 was a long one.

OP posts:
runningmonkey · 01/06/2009 11:51

Just this once maybe you should join in with DD's swimming lesson

Are we really the last two left?? Am off to look for a list to check. If we are then as they say in the movies (but with blimmin pg brain I can't remember which one)....
itsssss awwwwwwwwn

I am currently listening to loud rock music from my youth in an attempt to embarrass the little blighter out by his/her mum's terrible taste in music [insert devil horn headbanging emoticon here] might try some embarassing mum dancing in a minute

Grumpyoldcaaaaaaaa · 01/06/2009 12:24

Ah there are Reebee and Sophietom I think as well?

I was singing very loudly to Metallica yesterday . I may have done the devil horns as well. Brilliant!

OP posts:
runningmonkey · 01/06/2009 13:01

Yeah and MsG too. Wonder how they all are.

Lol at Metallica - that's in the playlist, just waiting for it to come up on the shuffle! My neighbours ar probably hating me right now.

chocolatebunnies · 01/06/2009 13:36

Thanks girls

Am off to hospital now, having constant show since 5am and contractions since 9!

Speak soon xx

LoobyLou36 · 01/06/2009 16:12

good luck chocb

MatthewAndBumpsMummy · 01/06/2009 16:27

congrats to rivermoon and euromum

good luck for today chocbunnies

Grumpyoldcaaaaaaaa · 01/06/2009 16:36

Just watching DD1 eat a Pot Noodle and D2 is eating a cheese slice .

My culinary standards have really slipped of late.

Swimming Lessons beckon shortly, chocbunnies should be having her baby today .

running I may take my Ipod into hospital - perhaps I could have the baby to the strains of Metallica? Coooooooooooooooooooool.
