Sarah and Rebecca big congrats on your speedy births . Also a bit of the speed! Am delighted for you both.
P&P so glad you're home with your brand new girl - I love the name Annabel by the way!
Well done to all our new mums and hope mumbot's doing well as well
DrSkid sorry that they couldn't be more conclusive re waters but I reckon you won't have long to wait now [caitni polishes her crystal ball of baby gazing]. Nothing much came of my little show on Sunday, other than my cervix feels quite soft and low now but discharge seems to have tailed off so definitely no more pinky mucous. But Braxton Hicks/tightenings have started since the acupuncture yesterday. So am hoping things are moving in the right direction!
Shroomer loving the show dream - sounds like the sort of one I'd have (loved the genius programme btw. Also not particularly squeamish!).
Scooby sorry to hear the nobby stiles are still bothering you...
Manda sorry to hear you're feeling a bit blah...tis perfectly natural at this point I think. Do feel free to come on and vent if you need to - no need to be "social" iykwim as we're here for all the bits, good and bad and blah! Hope the BP and ketones stay down too.
Scooby gosh, it would be most inconvenient for you if baby arrived this week!
Pacific hurrah for maternity leave! And so nice about the flowers & chocs...though what a busy weekend you have planned [tips imaginary cap at PD's amazing multi tasking ability!).
Donttry thanks for that link - sounds like a v good idea that bra. Need to find a place that will meausre me [hassle]. Although my maternity bras still fit fine (relatively roomy really) so am wondering if I can just go for the same bust size but go up a cup size...
And big waves to everyone else. Hope everyone's doing well, barring the usual aches and pains of late pregnancy...
All these babies arriving have been a bit of a reality check for me. So sat down this afternoon and wrote out a big list of things to do, divided by room etc [anal emoticon]. We've now started on the tasks, and already I'm feeling like this baby won't be born into a squalid flat to parents who procrastinate the most basic/random things! The simple reward of ticking things off a list is not to be underestimated
Most excitingly, the birth pool is filling as I type, so that it is actually ready for when I go into labour. I'm so glad my DH isn't phased by filters/heaters/random pipes as it looks like way more hassle than I'd be able for!
Right, off to check out the postnatal thread...
