[SquonkTheBeerGuru]

new thread.

well done Dondons, hope you recover well from the c section and it doesn't mess up Amelie's feeding!

Congrats DonDons, re the CS; take it slow, get everyone to do everything, take your painkillers and keep your scar dry.
Hopefully it wont mess with the feeding, i've had 3 CS's now and feeding hasnt been an issue.

No reason why it should change anything with the breastfeeding.

I didn't think so, AFAIA, what tells your body that it's tme to get the milk ready is baby&placenta coming out?
So even if there is a short delay, it should be just that, short, sometimes I now it can be harder to hold them but IME if you start as you mean to go on it's ok.

congratulations, DonDons. welcome to your precious daughter. DDs middle name is Amélie. glad to hear of her safe arrival

sorry have not been around, am thinking of you all, normal service will be resumed soon , my lovelies

sleep well xx

right, bacon butties all round. Who's labouring? who's thinking about it? who's still waiting?

Brocolli I think was induced yesterday so she should be holding her baby by now

How about the rest of you?

I am still waiting

Only 33 weeks to go now!!!

I'm still waiting, 41 wks, sweep today

I am massive and grumpy and liable to cry if anyone so much as looks at me!

OOOH you could have your baby soon!!! Oh how exciting!!

I don't dare get excited kayz! I have had so many false alarms, a show, contractions, leaky boobs. Yet no baby! boo hoo poor me, poor me!!!!

Poor poor you!! I bet its horrible when you've had all those false alarms.

Squonk I hope that tea is raspberry leaf tea!

would I give her anything else?

Thanks squonk, got any curry sauce to go on that butty, oh and any tips on how to get DP to fancy shagging a beached whale!

LOL, DH went to the health food hippy shop as he calls it yesterday for something and came home with some raspberry leaf tea!!! He got it so we were prepared. I know I told him I wanted to be organised but getting that like 30 weeks early is a bit to organised for my liking.

the best tip to get dh shagging a slightly larger version of his beautiful wife is to remind him that after the baby is born, he won't be getting any for a while

I've read that whichever country started the raspberry tea trend, uses it for whole pregnancy to 'tone' the uterus!

That worked a week ago, but that was first action I'd seen for 5 months, he is terrified of moving baby!! quite funny really! Even if he touches my boobs I cover my bump in case baby realises whats going on!! ha ha

LOL, bless him. We didn't have much while I was pg as I just didn't like it. But we did have quite a bit in the few weeks leading up to my due date.

Im going to hospital today to have a sweep. 40+ 9 days !! im still freaking out!!

Good Luck Jess!

Thanks, im really hopeing it wont make me feel sick like smears do!!

the race is on then jess!! I'm having mine at 12:30 ish! we'll be fine, don't freak out!
