Due March 2010 - I'm a baby get me out of here!

[annamama]

New ante-natal thread... the post-natal thread is here

Josephine Alisa born at 8.48 am today. 6lbs 14.5 oz. Delivery was fast and furious - only 40 mins after we arrived at hospital.

Congratulations Lisba!

Chuckle chuckle chuckle...... OK Pacific. Down the left hand side of your home page you'll find a little icon marked Groups. Click on it. Go to the search box at the top of the page and type in "MN March 2010". It should bring up the group with a fetching photo of me at 42ish weeks with DS looking grumpy pensive. Click on it and it'll ask if you'd like to join group or summit. I'll keep an eye out for any group requests (as will Rinders who I think is the other admin).
From thenceforth you'll find a list of who's who on the wall. Enjoy.

sariska brilliant news!! well done you!! crikey. 40 minutes.

Congratulations, Sariska, 'fast and furious' - no kidding !
Hope you and your daughter are recovering well. Gorgeous name - again!

And it was. How BRILLIANT! And well done for coming on so quickly afterwards! Well done Josephine for cracking on with it.

Dalrymps My MW told me they couldn't do Sweep till term presume that means 40wks
Pacific I just like my own bed too much - can't sleep properly on sweaty foam ones, also my DS was getting a bit distraught about where mummy was after 3 nights away from me...tugged at heartstrings.
pixie hats of to you - Im fed up and Im only 37wks and only one in there...slumps off disgusted with self...
walnut8 just be aware that epidurals can slow down labour as far as research ive done seems to suggest, as for me - Im not scared of needles but having one THAT close to spine scares me - i had to have it last time to be stitched after birth and was relieved when it was in ok.
heckle do some research on pros & cons then you'll have something to fight them with as I did to avoid automatically having a section - print out if necessary. They usually will listen to you if you're aware of risks involved with not doing it their way.
Pacific are you catching some zzzzzs too? oh full evening dress-I can't fit into any of that sort of stuff
BusyMissIzzy congratulations will swing over to postnatal in disguise to read...
blonde well done you for ignoring-almost impossible when you cant breathe...
mummyelk come on girls lets tie her down & tickle her till she reveals all
heckle when I walk to school now i think of that song 5liitle ducks...fat ones skinnyones, widdle waddle to and fro...
Sariska excited for you - dont worry about it you find ways of having cuddles/special times with your first and second and they're such individuals that you love them for who they are anyway.
Schroomer ?? unsettling - hope it isn't anything.
anyone elses DH think your addicted to MN?
felt a bit faint in WHSmiths today was glad mum with me, think must just be tiredness heartburn playing up last night.
oh Ive still two pages to go will post & read on...

Nice photo of DS Pacific. OK You're in....

lisbapalea congrats
sariska congrats
now going over to FB to se new arrivals..

I am in, indeed!

If I develop pressure sores sitting on this seat trying to MN and FB, it'll be all your fault(s)!

In all seriousness, I need to get off and do stuff.

Toodles !!

Woohoo! THREE more babies! (one still a mystery...although not to me - hee hee! )

Hurrah lisba and sariska, so glad everything went well for you both.

Still waiting here....40+4.

And finally LOL at Arcadie's crazy shapes on the dancefloor (sorry Arcadie...and you though Hammergate had been laid to rest!) You're one groovy lady. Now, how about a follow up - can I suggest Vanilla Ice's 'Ice Ice Baby'??

Pacific am v amused by the flurry of activity your arrival on FB has prompted! Clearly we all have nothing better to do on this fine day but grow babies and stare at a computer screen...!

Arcadie - OK - I've pulled myself out of the dark ages (along with Pacific) and joined FB. Please, pretty please, can I join your group? I've put in a request...

lol Heckle. Growing a baby and staring at the computer screen is all I have the energy to do at the moment! But neither do I actually have anything better to do!

Sariska, many congratulations on the speedy arrival of Josephine and am seriosuly impressed at you posting your happy news so quickly after her birth.

Ooh Shroomer, have just confirmed your request!

Off to a 1st birthday party in a little while...oh joy!

Congratulations Sariska!

I thank you Rinders.... Welcome Shroomer.

Have used the time in between this and last posts to watch and make Katy's Shortbread from "I can cook".... domestic goddess anyone!? [preen]

And Hecklephone Sorry you're feeling glum about overdue-age. I shall send you the same sympathy I sent DrSkid - one that is to be reciprocated when I monumentally fail to pop.

Arcadie - yeah, I did a great job of that didn't I?! A mere 2.8 years ago I had a great career as a consultant for a major IT company - who'd have believed it??

Congrats Sariska! Congrats Lisba! Congrats Busy! And congrats the mystery mother! (I know too, it wasn't too much of a "surprise" ) So jealous you all have your babies...

Arcadie - you've got some serious talent there! "More dance" haha, I won't show it to my DD then.

Pacific - I have pregnancy nose too, quite annoying ja.

Oh yeah, soon everyone will be calling or texting or emailing daily asking "anything happening yet?". NOOOO SHUT UP!

congrats Sariska I hope everything went well as well as being quick!! ) Looking forward to seeing some pics and hearing your birth story.

Where is Pixie indeed?

Nice to 'meet' some more of you on Fb

Just got back from AquaNatal and have some serious bump tightenings going on, so Im off to listen to the Natalhypno therapy CD and see if I can get to the end this time and actually know what im supposed to do if this turns into actual action anytime soon

ooo my waters have just broken Felt an internal rip type feelng and have just spent a few minutes trying to work out if suddenly incontinent or about to be a mummy .. decided mummy option as cant be peeing this much!!Now to report to MWLU..

Lurking but still around and wanted to say CONGRATS to all the new moms - but am I the only one who is thinking 'stay baby stay'? For insurance reasons we are really hoping baby sticks around until the 21st.

And sending plenty of lovely labour vibes to you siamese - look forward to reading your announcement here soon!
