I hope I've done this right - here is the new thread...and hopefully the last in ante-natal

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?
loooouise · 03/06/2009 18:12

Thanks Doris for update from Effie? Anybody know what phototherapy does? And what are these high pressures? Poor wee lamb, it sounds like he's a trouper though. Poor Effie must be in absolute hell with worry.

Doris, I'm sorry things are so frustratingly slow for you love, keep us posted - is this your first sweep?

June thanks for telling me about your friend's boy called Angelo, that's very reassuring. at your neighbour - it's a difficult situation but presumably she has coped with the allergy long before you guys arrived, no? Maybe she tried this on with the previous owners...At the very least, you'd think they'd offer to pay the costs

Daisy LOL at those barmy lyrics. I have no recollection of this masterpiece. The name dilemma should be fun, but at this stage of the pregnancy, it's rather frought with worry!

Tee2072 · 03/06/2009 18:37

looouise I may be wrong but I think phototherapy might be for jaundice.

As for names, I have decided that someone, some where will find a way to make fun of your name, no matter what it is! So pick a name you like and use it!

doris ugh, how frustrating that this is taking so long for you! Hope this sweep works wonders!!

june I hope you gave your neighbour a look like this: , what a whack!

It is much cooler in Belfast today, which means I am not nearly as swollen as I was yesterday! Thank goodness for small mercies!

LittleSarah · 03/06/2009 18:57

Urgh so nauseous today, glad to hear about what your midwife said Looouise, wish I could get some more definite signs though! Must stop moaning though, not due til Sat, poor Doris and Llynnn are past their dates!

Had a good active day today so tomorrow will be spent relaxing, apart from some carpet sweeping , which will have to do until dh grabs a spare hoover at work!

Did treat myself to a gorgeous new bag (really needed one) and a wallet (also needed) and some earrings (not needed but very cute) from Accessorise. Will have to be far stricter from now on so thought I would get my last wee luxuries!

Looouise - Angelo is very sweet, of course teasing is possible, on the other hand I got bullied a bit in high school and I am Sarah and it was nothing to do with my name certainly! Children can be very mean and they will find something if they want to. [Sigh]

My name has never been shortened, have pretty much always been Sarah, like Daisy I always wanted a cool nickname as a child but never got one!

Pretty knackered today, as I seem to be every day! Still dd is at her dad's this weekend so if baby doesn't come early I shall at least get my last lie ins for a while!

June2009 · 03/06/2009 18:59

The neighbour came by after work and the whole conversation ended up in an argument.

They want to cut the tree, they want us to pay for more than half (£525 for us, £375 for them) and they want to do it asap (ie in 2 week's time.)
DH pointed out that was not going to happen (Who can fork out that kind of money that quick?? Nevermind when you're having a baby) and offered either £100 towards getting the top/sides cut (out of £350) or half of getting the whole thing cut, but doing it after the summer.

The neighbour doesn't want to pay half cause "it's not his tree" and he just stormed out saying he's going to cut his side in 2 weeks, despite dh asking politely to not bring chainsaws round when baby has just got here then he said that if we have a problem with that we could speak to our lawyer.
And exactly how is cutting just his side going to help with the pollen generated by our side??

Lovely, just what we needed now.

llynnnn · 03/06/2009 19:37

Oh no June, what a nightmare neighbour!! even if they are suffering with the pollen from it, which i find hard to believe is soooooo much worse than every other year they have lived next to it , surely they have no right to demand YOU chop it down!! these things always happen at the worst times too dont they

Doris - sorry to hear you are still hanging in there like me. hope it happens for us both soon, although think you will be first as youve had the sweep and are at least a little dilated.

I feel a bit guilty moaning about being late as I feel fine in myself, not even any back pain in the last couple of days, i'm sleeping fine, not nauseaus. i feel just the same as i did 3 weeks ago!! thinking they will have to drag this baby out!!

I've had a lovely day with dd, went to the beach this morning and had a bit of a picnic etc, nice to spend some time just the 2 of us.
Poor Effie, wish there was something we could do to help her, it must be soooooo hard for her

Looouise - i like Angelo, its very nice, would get some funny looks round here though(i'm in lincolnshire where my friends son 'Oscar' got some raised eyebrows as its apparantly so different!! ) agree with the other comments about how kids will find something to call you regardless of your actual name, mine has never been shortened but that didnt stop the mean kids making up other things to call me!! kids are mean sometimes!!

Mrsmcjnr - i see its your due date tomorow, hope you have some movement and dont have to join me in an overdue-nightmare!

Hi to everyone else, hope everyone is well (at least its cooler today, makes it more bearable!)

blueberrysorbet · 03/06/2009 19:45

loouise, i worked with a lovely spanish man called angelo. We all called him angel he was v nice and vvvvv handsome...

June2009, its illegal to cut down a tree, esp one as old as that without getting council permission first. i would give them a call as the fine can be HUGE.
also 1200 to cut down a tree sounds a tad excessive! also legally it depends on where tree roots are as to who is responsible. they are horrid to come and bother you, but you are not liable to pay anything-infact, if it turns out to be your tree, you can sue them if you have legal advice on your home insurance give them a call, or citizens advice. then eat lots of chocolate and forget about it.
personally would go and see neighbours and say that you hope not to fall out with them but baby due and you don't want any stress/ moeny going out at mo. how long have they lived there? people get such bees in their bonnets.. just to keep peace etc even if it feels like lemon sucking.
daisy, ds spent all day naked as is his preference. its so hot here even with aircon on, and in the afternoon i just got his paddling pool out and he played in that. he is a bit little really, and can't take his own pants down, but refuses to wear a nappy

thanks for all the messages of support, and v nervous as you can tell by my long post! its been moved to later as well, so more time to get stresses then...

June2009 · 03/06/2009 19:59

Blue The fine is 20k if the tree is protected but this one isn't. I'll call the council tomorrow to see where we stand from their point of you, I've been to citizen advice website already and they can cut their side if they want, we don't have to pay anything if we don't want to. (fine by us but not by them).

We wrote them a letter outlining what he came here to say and what we would be prepared to do and pay.
He's just rang the bell again and I can hear them talking, no raised voices yet so fingers crossed they can come to an agreement.
The whole thing has made me quite upset though, to the point where I wanted to go to the birth centre to check that the baby's ok.
I just don't need the extra stress.
This pregnancy has been ok physically but mentally it's been really hard to fight beeing really down about the assistant/accountant leaving me and my accounts in a mess, finding another book keeper and a new accountant, dealing with ils's divorce and bil and sil's tantrums and needs, my rl friends all going abroad at the same time, some permanently, my dad and brother not coming for xmas and then never making a date to come. I'm still working and I feel like I've overcome all this shit and now, literally days before I'm due, they come out with the tree that has been sitting here for 40y, they've been living here for 12 years and we have to cut it in 2 weeks time. .

Sorry just needed to vent!
We're going out for dinner and everything will be all right again!

bigcar · 03/06/2009 20:54

evening all

blueberry, best of luck for tomorrow, can't wait for more baby news!

june, loving your neighbours I take it there are no other trees within a 10 mile radius that could be causing them problems, surely it can't all be down to your tree?! Tree's been there longer than they have, tell them to get lost Sounds like they are over obssessing to me

effie, sending positive thoughts your way for Rupert and hoping for good news soon

ineed, fingers all still crossed for you and eagerly awaiting news.

tee, got your date for next week thursday, not long now!

I remember that song well, Angelo, thought it was great! Showing my age a little?

You're all going to hate me now but being pregnant seems so long ago now, can't say I'm missing all the aches and pains at all! I'm hoping I've put some pics on my profile, finally took a bump pic myself in case anyone wonders why it's a rubbish pic

Edward is doing really well, 1 week old tomorrow (and waiting for some more friends ), he was weighed yesterday and has only lost 2oz which is pretty good, so it would seem feeding is going ok He also had his heel prick test too, he wasn't quite so impressed with that one! He's been really good, not spending much time awake yet but I'm absolutely loving all the cuddles and all the wonderful faces he pulls. The other kids have been great, really affectionate and protective over him, for now anyway, until he starts pinching their toys

Don't read if sqeamish! The birth started off ok, the doctor broke my waters, not very comfortable as the midwife had to push down on Edwards bum to avoid cord prolapse as he was so far up still. Spent the next hour leaking water like it was going out of fashion [very eeewwww emoticon] as I walked round the room to try to get him moving. Took a couple of hours for the contractions to start but when they did, they came very close together. I used the gas and air and all seemed to be going to plan until about an hour later when I started to get pain across my old cs scar line. Apparently that's ok so long as the pain goes between contractions and isn't more painful than the contraction itself. Unfortunately it didn't stay that way for long and the pain on the scar just got worse and then was just constant at which point all hell broke loose and i don't really remember much from that point on apart from signing a consent form, god knows what I signed, couldn't bear to open my eyes at that stage!

Next thing I remember was waking up in recovery about 21.30 to this big yellow blob circling in front of my face, it was Edward, I just couldn't see straight My scar had ruptured from my previous section (that tiny % has to be someone I suppose!) but they found my bladder had adhered to the back of the scar so that had split too. Some of my bowel and other bits had stuck to the scar too, but thankfully everything else stayed in one piece and was sorted by the surgeon. I also managed to loose an awful lot of blood, just to top that lot off nicely, so my blood count was very low but it didn't drop over the first couple of days so thankfully no blood tranfusion, just loads of iron tablets. And, I got lovely blue wee for the first 2 days, the kids found that hysterical, all good fun! Finally made it out of bed on Saturday afternoon and had the best shower ever, I'd forgotten how much better and more human a shower can make you feel when you've given birth

I'm just glad I was out cold and missed all the fun, it can't have been good for dh to sit through, he must have found it quite traumatic, bless him. When I came round, he'd already told them his name was Edward, a name that wasn't near to the top of his list, but was top of mine, funny though, we're all used to it now, suits him

It's so lovely being home with Edward and being back with dh and the other children. They're all looking after me and giving me time to recover, I'm barely lifting a finger

Better go feed my little man

Hoping for more baby news soon and sending good labour vibes to everyone

waves to all

ermintrude13 · 03/06/2009 21:27

Oh my goodness Bigcar sounds like your CS scar had all the negatives stats in one go! I didn't realise the scar could fuse to bowel and bladder etc - you poor thing! So glad the surgeon was able to sort that out, and get little Edward out safe and sound.

Hope he'll be getting some more virtual little June 'cousins' very soon

June those neighbours sound totally bonkers. I think they can trim branches which impinge on their land, but if pollen is the problem that won't do anything. If you have no reason to cut the tree nobody can make you, and I can't believe they're being so inconsiderate at this stage of your pregnancy, and after living there 12 yrs! I know you don't want a feud, but don't be browbeaten into allowing/paying for something just because they're shouting at you.

and enjoy dinner

Baby is so low today but I can't remember how long I felt this much pressure from DS before he was born - weeks probably. Hope you all pass comfortable nights xx

MrsMcJnr · 03/06/2009 21:28

Hey ladies very quick checking in as it?s been a busy day here and MIL leaves first thing tomorrow.

Naat ? very of you losing your plug! Yup, it?s my due date tomorrow!

Blueberry ? all the very best tomorrow can?t wait to hear your news!!

Lots of labour vibes to everyone

Little Rupert ? sleep tight little one

Bigcar ? what a star Edward sounds and you sound such a happy Mummy sorry to hear about the surgery, glad to hear they acted fast, what a nightmare!! How are you feeling yourself now? Ok?

Looking forward to a proper catch up with you all tomorrow

Naat · 03/06/2009 21:37

Hey Juners!!

I've been able to read about you all, and now I'm sitting in pizza hut, where we have wifi

Bigcar, glad to read that despite the last minute changes, everything went fine and Edward is at home happy and enjoying his family. Poor lamb enduring that prick test I'm sure I won't be able to be there when they do it, DH will have to...

June, oh my God!!!! Why oh why do people act like this!???! DH got really angry when I told him about it, he agrees with Blue, and advises you to contact citizen's advice or the council. Bloody neighbour!!! You've really gone through crappy situations lately, and I totally feel for you, as I know how low those things can make you feel (usually people say 'oh, that's not that bad, don't over-worry' etc. You have my full sympathies, and I have my fingers crossed for you to be able to solve this soon and without much stress for you. (((hug)))

blue, good luck tomorrow!!! thinking of you!!!

llynn, glad to read you're feeling much better these days!!! Now let's get LO out!!

littleS, great treats!!! Enjoy!!!

tee, glad you're feeling better with the cooler weather. My mum took out her coat again today

loouise, lovely name Angelo! Tee and the other juners are right, kids can be cruel no matter the name...

Doris, again, fingers crossed for you and Daisy to get LOs out soon!!!

Oh crap, I've forgotten about the rest!!!! Hi to all the rest of the juners!! Ermin, Choccie, Silk, Mrsmc, effie and everyone!!!

Quickly, saw MW today and LO is fine, BP fine, wee fine, bump is 2cm bigger than 10 days ago so LO has definitely run out of space now. She said it still could be some days until LO comes, to stay calm and relax Let's see how good I am at doing that Oh, Sky told us today we'll have internet June 11th

Anyway, hope you have lovely evenings!!! Let's see some LOs coming soon!!

(((waves)))

insywinsyspider · 03/06/2009 21:38

ineed hope you are well on the way to meeting your lo (if you haven?t already )

tee how exciting to have a date!

Its interesting to hear your opinions re lady from church and being a working/stay at home mum ? I think the problem I had was she made it all sound so ?right? and reasonable that I should be staying at home but its great to hear your opinions ? good sanity check!
Having a good day today, lovely meal out with mummy friends last night and loving cooler weather and I got to cuddle my friends 3 wk old baby girl, she was gorgeous, I?m having an excited to meet my baby day rather than a stressing about labour and 3 children one! On the down side I got caught in traffic on way home and missed my midwife appointment, I had to call her from motorway and apologise, she was bit huffy as I haven?t seen her since 32 wks and am 38 tomorrow but she?s been on holiday and this was the first app she had and now she doesn?t have any for next 2 weeks I?m having to be seen at the hosp on sat, not ideal, I feel fine so hope baby is ok

ermin love your baby induction plan ? I?ve just had a curry and off to cut up pineapple, I have a birthing ball in loft but not sure I can be arsed to get it down tonight? dh is hopeful for sex

llynn I?m expecting no3, ds1 was 3 a couple of weeks ago and ds2 is 18 months, imo its completely normal to wonder how you?ll cope! I?m stressing about it but fwiw I found pregnancy and a toddler more difficult than newborn and toddler ? at least you can put baby down or give them to someone else for a cuddle!

blueberry good luck for tomorrow

effie glad everyone is keeping us updated and that Ruperts scans were good, thoughts and prayers are with you all x

june newborns don?t need much entertainment, they can apparently focus best on black and white, we drew ds?s pictures of smiley faces, wavey lines etc and bought them this which they loved ? I know that prob sounds neurotic but I did like being able to ?do? something with them. And at your neighbours wanting you to pay so much to have tree taken down ? it would be cheaper for her to see a homeopath and do something about her allergy surely?? At the very least they should have got 3 quotes (maybe a good stalling tactic ) hope you have a lovely meal out

naat you had a show! How exciting, keep us posted!

bigcar can?t believe Edward is here and a week old already! And glad you?re being well looked after now, now go and find us a seat over on the antenatal thread I hope some of us are over there soon! I think my lo has made itself very comfy

chocciedooby · 03/06/2009 21:49

Oh Bigcar - That was a traumatic delivery! So glad you got through it ok and are getting well looked after at home.
A friend of mine went through a similar experience 6 weeks ago, scar ruptured, emergency surgery and ended up with blood transfusion. She recovered really quickly and is loving her beautiful baby girl

June - Nasty nasty neighbours.My parents have been through similar problems with theirs. You seem to be covering all angles on your legal rights etc. I do hope things get sorted so you can put it behind you. Enjoy your dinner and as someone else said, tell them timing is crap and you can't even discuss such a thing right now. Good Luck.

Sorry if tmi but who else said that they were getting a lot of discharge? I have just been for a NO.2 and there was quite a large white blob of stuff in the toilet bowl. There was also quite a bit on the tissue paper. It was just like what you get when its your fertile time of the month. Is this normal?

ermintrude13 · 03/06/2009 22:11

choccie sounds like a bit of your mucus plug, or a little 'show'. Perfectly normal (and yet another utterly charming symptom of pre-labour )

chocciedooby · 03/06/2009 22:19

Is this normal 2 weeks before due date?

There wasn't any blood or staining...Going to keep my eyes peeled now.

llynnnn · 03/06/2009 22:20

Bigcar - what an awful experience for you, so so pleased it worked out well for you and that you and Edward are both well. Thats my (and my consultants!) biggest fear as I had a csection last time and worry about the chance of scar rupture. I am very keen for a natural birth, but also very worried too. maybe thats why this baby is so reluctant to come out!

Insy - thanks for the reassuarnce re going from 1 to 2 dc. i am a natural born worrier at the best of times and worry not only how i will cope but the impact on dd's life too!!

arrrgh think i need to sleep now, getting worried again!! will be back tomorrow!!

hope you all sleep well

Tee2072 · 03/06/2009 22:23

bigcar what trauma you had! So glad it all worked out and Edward is home safe and sound.

I am off to bed, let's have some babies over night, yeah?

Naat · 04/06/2009 04:39

Girls!!!
Could not sleep, went to facebook and saw a message by ineed saying she was a bit shocked as she had given birth to a GIRL at 7.34 pm yesterday!!!!and that she hoped she liked blue =} how great is that!!!! Her name is Emily Rose. Sooooo happy for her!!! I ran here to tell you all (grin)
Right, no baby here yet, as you can see. I'll try to sleep and catch up later.

(((Waves)))

daisy5 · 04/06/2009 06:49

Morning all,

Have woken with backache. My dream birth would be to wake up, go into labour and have the baby in the daytime, so I got hopeful for a moment

So excited for you Ineed - you must be thrilled to have your baby girl. Emily Rose is a beautiful name. Can't wait to hear how it all went.

bigcar - so happy for you bigcar. You deserve a medal for getting through all that. I am still a little speechless by your story and glad to hear you are getting plenty of rest and being looked after well.

naat - sorry to hear you are not sleeping so well. When I was suffering 1 week back and trying to bring on labour (tweeking nipples, eating pineapple, curry, raspberry leaf tea etc) I think I got a bit too overanxious about it all, and it was contributing to my insomnia, so just trying to relax a bit now and be a little more 'que sera sera'.

lynnnn - it's all a bit when passing due date isn't it. My dd was 40+6 but was so relieved not to go 2 weeks over.

erm - know what you mean. My baby was so low a couple of nights ago, that my fanny was numb and tingly almost like just before giving birth. And I had no heartburn for two days and it looked low etc etc. But now it seems to have popped back up and heartburn started again etc!!! Do you think I need to show it a signpost 'THIS WAY OUT!!'.

effie - you must be exhausted with the stress and worry. I thought of you first thing this morning, and hope that Rupert is a little better today.

loooouise - don't get too fraught about the name at this stage. If you aren't set on one name, just wait till it comes out - one of the names will probably 'feel' right once you see your gorgeous bundle.

Backache has gone now so might nip back to bed and see if I can a little snoozel before dd wakes. dh can't decide whether to go to London today or not. I just wish he would decide rather than tying himself in knots over it.

June2009 · 04/06/2009 06:52

Naat what are you doing in pizza hut at 4 am? :D
Thanks for updating the list daisy
How great Ineed, a girl to balance things out :D
(Was ineed expecting a boy? Her listing said "ds2".)

Thanks for your messages about the neighbour, dh is dealing with it and there was no shouting, not sure what they agreed in the end. (Hopefully to swap his witch wife for a nicer one ;)
I hope I don't bump into them for the next few weeks, I'd find it very hard to smile and make small talk.

We had a lovely meal in a local italian restaurant yesterday evening, maybe the last one before baby comes.
We walked past some shops and I was at my reflection in the windows. (weird reaction really because we do have mirrors in the house?!).
I don't know if it's because the baby is lower down but my bump is looking even bigger, not sure how to explain it, like it's a missile or something. People in restaurants/cafes/the street do a double-take when they see me. Some with a hint of worry across their face :D

Someone mentionned about stretchmarks, I didn't get any until a couple of weeks ago or so, at belly button level across my belly, probably since the baby has dropped down and the skin is particularly stretched there where it's never been before.
I'm really not too bothered about it, they look nasty now but they fade away you know.

bigcar Wow, what a birth, you are a trooper! I hope your dh wasn't too freaked out, mine would have been in bits I think.
I hope you are healing ok and being cared for!

J-3 for me and no signs of imminent labour...

Tee2072 · 04/06/2009 08:17

Congratulations ineed! I guess I didn't realize she thought it was a boy! Welcome to the world Emily Rose!!

Had a good nights sleep. Seems to be a much cooler day here.

I hope everyone has a good one! More babies please!!!

llynnnn · 04/06/2009 08:58

CONGRATULATIONS Ineed on the birth of Emily Rose - beautiful name! Hope you are both well, looking forward to hearing from you

Well, as you've probably guessed, still NOTHING here!!! slept rubbish last night too, had to make 4 toilet trips!! felt like a yo-yo up and down all night!!

June - I saw a photo of me taken last week my my mum (didnt even realise she'd taken it!) and I look huge!! People keep saying to me that I cant have long left and look petrified when i tell them i'm overdue like the baby is just going to drop right out in front of them

Mrsmcjnr - happy due date!! hope your little one makes an appearance today for you!

Daisy - lol at your sign post, think i could do with one here too! Hope you manage to get some more sleep

I'm going to have a very chilled day today, dd is in nursery and dh at work. had an active day yesterday and that didnt work so figure i might as well rest today!! It will be my last day of peace as baby will def (fingers crossed) be here by next thurs as will prob be induced on tuesday so I'm going to make the most of it!!

Hope everyone else has restful days and a couple more babies would be nice???? any volunteers???

ermintrude13 · 04/06/2009 09:10

How lovely Ineed, many congratulations on the birth of Emily Rose, and what a sweet name .

Thanks for passing on the msg Naat and I second Daisy's wise words about not getting too hung up on getting things started. Half of those 'techniques' are more for distraction than anything else and really only designed for when you're overdue. And if you're getting tired you just need to get some R&R.

June glad you enjoyed your meal and were able to forget about mad tree lady. My bump is like a missile too, and now other mums are just giggling at it in the playground and complete strangers are saying 'ooh, any minute now!'. I wish!

choccie yes, a bit of mucus loss is normal even 2 wks before due date. If it's the whole plug it means things are likely to start soon, but you can have several smaller 'shows' as the cervix begins to efface. If you think waters are leaking or get any other symptoms call MW.

DD's school is closed for voting so I'd better go and help organise her social life ie. get her out from under my feet for a few hours .

Naat · 04/06/2009 09:18

June LOL, nope, dinner at pizza hut last night and then at 4am due to some insomnia my post about Ineed's LOM yes, she was expecting a boy, that's why she wrote she was so surprised and that she hoped LO liked blue LOL!!

Blue, thinking of you today.

Effie, thinking of you and rupert xx

Daisy, yep, DH told me the same yesterday, that being anxious was not going to help, probably. So now I'm just trying to get busy during the day and do things to get distracted. I just dread LO arriving on Sat as MIL is coming for the day and we really don't want her there.={ here's hoping it's either before or after. Thanks for your nice words.

Choccie, sounds like your plug!! (Smile) yay!!!

Tee, glad you slept well (smile)

Insy, glad to hear you're feeling better and that you had such a nice day! Sorry about your MW appt lost due to traffic. I can't believe she didn't squeeze you in between two appts (shock). Mine does that all the time, yest I waited for almost an hour due to last-min appts. I know it might be annoying for the ones who wait but come on, we're all on the same train! (Smile) hope your check at the hosp goes well.

No news here, this LO is way to comfy inside, I can see. Hope you have lovely days and hope to hear about more LOs coming!!!
