Satinshoes Have just read the latest posts on this page- How are you this morning?

Congratulations on baby George NJ , I've only just read (part) of this thread!

lulumama · 09/12/2006 07:17

satin morning.....hope you ok.....xxxx

satinshoes · 09/12/2006 07:55

Morning everyone. Thanks for thinking of me !

Everything got to 5 mins apart and then stopped

At least I had a good nights sleep.

The contrax seem to have come back about 8-10 mins apart so somethings obviously happening but not going to get excited yet...

lulumama · 09/12/2006 07:59

don;t be discouraged

all the contractions are doing something...starting to dilate you.....toning up the uterus...getting baby into the right position...

they all help and all the ones you have had, are all ones you don;t have to have again!!!

you might have a few days of this, but that's ok....listen to your body..and remember to eat and drink , especially as you have been poorly.....rest when you need to aswell......

all very positive !

satinshoes · 09/12/2006 10:09

Thanks Lulu,

About 8 mins apart now but intensity is ramping up and I'm having to concentrate on breathing through them. Guess it could be a long day/few days....

lulumama · 09/12/2006 10:27

that sounds positive.......when you can;t face posting on here and can;t open your eyes....it;s getting closer!

Dingdongdebbsyandbibbyonhigh · 09/12/2006 10:35

good luck satin remember just focus on your breathing like lulu says hopefully you wont have days of this,but when you feel the pains very intense you may feel your going into your in own zone like i did and you may even see stars like i did too.Best of luck

Satin sounding very good try and stay at home as long as you possibly can have you got a ball to bounce on?

lulumama · 09/12/2006 13:53

all sounding good ladies....

sit on your gym balls and commence bouncing !!

MKGnearlyimmaculateconception · 09/12/2006 13:56

Morning everyone. Satin I think you'll go today.
Debsy, since they booked you for an induction they should have everything sorted out before you get there. When I had my induction I though there would be a process of checking in, but they had my file already, and just showed me to my room. I don't know if they let you take a break during the induction. they generally don't here, once they put in the drip it's in, and they don't let you eat until the baby is out. So my advice would be eat like your eating for a third world country on Sunday night.

Hi MKG>..how are you and the family today ?

MKGnearlyimmaculateconception · 09/12/2006 14:02

We're good, sent dh off to work, ds is watching sesame street, I'm eating my honey nut cheerios. Yesterday we were out for a while and I definitely overdid it. I was at the grocery store and got the worst pain in my lower abdomen. It's always on the bottom left (it feels like when I ovulate).
I guess between my daily workout and running around I must have just worn my body out. I hate being fatigued all the time.

I did make it to the store though, and bought my dd's going home dress. I don't know if it's definitely a girl but for 50% off the dress, hat, and socks, I couldn't turn it down. If it's not a girl I'll just regift it later.

Are you looking forward to your girl's night? I'm so jealous my only friend who has a baby lives 5 hours away, and all my other friends are single so they don't get my limitations sometimes.

lulumama · 09/12/2006 14:04

regift! good thinking, good word!!

take it easy honey...you are growing a baby, need to look after yourself !

Dingdongdebbsyandbibbyonhigh · 09/12/2006 14:05

Thanks mkg ill do that
take it easy today rest up a bit if you have been doing too much. x

MKGnearlyimmaculateconception · 09/12/2006 14:06

I just want to feel normal again. Well only 24 weeks for that. I'm still waiting for that 2nd trimester energy boost that people talk about.

OP posts:
Dingdongdebbsyandbibbyonhigh · 09/12/2006 14:09

i know what yuo mean i was like that also had ms morn noon and nite till i was 20 weeks.Go and have a nice long bath and chill out a little.

MKGnearlyimmaculateconception · 09/12/2006 14:10

lulu, you guys don't know about re-gifting over there. Oh yes, all the crap that I get as gifts that I don't want to keep, and can't return gets given to other people at some point.
