Peachy and VS's when-will-this-baby-come thread: all comers very welcome to join in

[Peachy]

Following on from Angua's thread as that's nigh on fuill and she has her lovely baby.....

Am 41 weeks tomorrow and VS is on a deadline for her VABC- help! LOL

Morning all
It sounds as though we're all just sitting tight for the moment, waiting to see what happens.

VS - glad to hear that you've been able to make your own decisions, and hopefully do things YOUR way. Thanks also for the prediction - seeing as there's still no sign I'll be holding out for Friday now!

Have a good day everyone, and looking forward to hearing how everyone's doing once you're up.

I'll just get the bacon on then

Well there wasn't much sleep to be had in the squonk household last night, so forgive me if I am a tad eeyoreish

why not squonk? poorly?

I think ds's asthma is playing up - he's been up every night for a week, coughing. Last night he wasn't coughing, but I think he's just got in the habit of waking up. Which woke dd2 up, which woke dp up, so there were four in the bed and the little one said "I wannnnnnna milk drink" so mummy said "no" and everyone cried and they all stayed awake a little bit longer and finally mummy had an inch worth of bed in which to sleep....

In which case, Squonk, we'll let you off...

I hope ds soon settles down, and that they all don't give you too hard a day today.

oh poor you squonk, and poor DS

sounds miserable

Awww poor little squonkdude

I feel CRAPOLA.

Had a terrible nights sleep with backache that just wouldnt shift no matter how I laid, and I must have kept squishing my stomach cos I woke up a few times with awful pains in my belly too.

Now I feel sick as a parrot and can't stop throwing up. Great.

sorry you are feeling horrid VS - but isn't spewing a sign of a good old clear out.....?

dson't want to get ur hopes up VS but sounds like it could be pre labour

Arghh!
What a faff trying to cancel my CS.
I called the womens centre who put me through to the delivery suite who have made me call silver star who are making me wait for a doctor to call me back.
I DON'T WANT IT FFS.
At least I'm cancelling it and not just not turning up!

you would have thought they would be glad you were letting them know!! i imagine they have to ensure you are aware of the risks/benefits ot cancelling before they can cancel though

I suppose, Even if I was going ahead with it thogh I doubt they'd be able to operate on someone who is ill!
I can't stop throwing up and feel like shite, not exactly the best idea to go for an operation tomorrow.

Ah Peachy that's brilliant news!
Feel for you Squonk.
Keep us posted VS, all sounding good. Very, very exciting....[silver star doctors are pretty good about supporting your decision i think?]

Hopefully ruty, They may say they want me to have a check-up but I'm not sure there is much point.
I saw the mw yesterday everything was perfectly fine and silver star clinic would be next tuesday which s probably around the time I'd have my CS rebooked for.
I just want to go back to bed!

Morning, had rubbish sleep too. I look so swollen of face today!! have tons of concealer on and have just woken up - i went back to bed after i took the kids out at 9am, they are at aschool and nursery.

No news to report here - very active baby today, MW tomorrow morning.

Oh and Squonk - i had a dream about you last night. You worked at my dc's nursery and i found out you were pg, because i saw you at my MW's clinic and just clicked who you were, because at the nursery on the 'in' and 'out' sheet it said 'Squonk MW' and i guessed.

lol, scorpio - I'm not pg, but we're working on it!

Thanks for the sympathy, everyone. Do you guys know what I need to keep me awake all day?

ANOTHER BABY on this thread!!!!!

Sounds like VS may be on the way... how about the rest of you?

I dreamt about Mn last night too, I dreamt about Cod though.

VS...didn't you have a sweep yesterday?

Your bag is packed isn't it?

She couldnt do the sweep, my cervix is closed. She had a rummage and said it's really soft and anterior just closed.
My bag has been packed for AGES!

is this your first?

3rd!
But the other two were both CS's so I've never dilated before and as such have been told to treat it like a first.

sorry I didn't mean it all sounded good when you're throwing up for oxon VS! Meant the decision and the clarity, etc. I've just been told the baby is so big they're recommending an elective...so I don't think I'm going to get a last minute wave of courage!
I have had my first dream about a MNetter - Marslady! I've never met her, but she was being lovely and doulaish in my dream. What does it all mean...

Throwing up seems like a good sign. Fingers crossed!

The only 'sign' I have is a pressing need to keep dusting and washing and tidying and sorting and...

Right - have just eaten yet another pineapple and made a huge pot of curry. Have also reacquainted self with nether regions after months of neglect (pre birth pruning seemed a good idea) - was aghast at state of self hence name change (wish I'd not bothered).

Is nesting real or just brought on by intense boredom?
