@Daniki omg can you imagine! I think I’d have to discharge myself 😂. Hopefully the next 5 weeks go quick for you so you can meet your baby AND go home, double celebrations! x

@Marie1990xid defo discharge myself for a day or 2 I couldn’t cope 😂 I know I find once it gets to Wednesday the rest of the week thankfully flies, another week down! 🙌🏻 so 4 (and a wee bit) to go! So sad I’m missing out on like getting all the bits ready at home I was looking forward to that but hopefully husband has it all under control 😂 xx

Marie1990x · 30/08/2025 22:19

4 weeks eeeek that’s mental! Aww I know I bet. Hope you’ve given him good instructions 😂. If that was my husband he wouldn’t have a clue whatsoever in what and how to sort things 😅 x

@Marie1990xgod knows what way the house will be like when I get home 😂 tempted to get a cleaner in to give it a deep clean before I’m due to come home 😂 xx

Marie1990x · 06/09/2025 17:18

@Daniki haha I don’t blame you! Not long now arghhhh. How you feeling?

I’ve literally been bed bound the last couple of days, PGP and/or round ligament pain is killing me, I can barely walk. Hoping it eases with some rest

OP posts:
Daniki · 06/09/2025 17:26

@Marie1990xoh no! PGP is so painful 🥺 have you a support band? I’m feeling good, 3 weeks and a bit left 🙌🏻 I’m feeling heavy now and breathless so not getting up and about as much 😂 just had the lady across from me give birth there it happened so quick there wasn’t time to move her to the labour ward 😂🙈

Marie1990x · 06/09/2025 21:50

@Daniki I haven’t got a band, no. It’s only just really properly come on after niggling for a bit.
Omg no way 🫣 must have been a quick labour! Bet it’s surreal being around all these babies!

@Danikiis it 2 weeks now until your section? Arghhhhhh SO EXCITING. How you feeling?

Daniki · 17/09/2025 08:28

@Marie1990xhey! I know, really hoping it flies in! But I do find getting to hump day it flies to the wknd til I see my son and then we’re into the next week 🥰 was all prepped Monday morning for a section as my waters turned bloody but everything seemed fine and it wasn’t my placenta so likely just my cervix is irritated now from the constant leaking! Was disappointed then but sure look it another 2 weeks and they’ll be in arms rather than the NICU 🙌🏻 how you feeling?

Marie1990x · 17/09/2025 09:35

@Daniki really hoping it goes quick for you, these weeks are flying so hope these next 2 do too!
Oh wow bet your nerves were wrecked that they could have been coming then!
yeah all good here thanks. Just these pains are on another level recently, was literally in tears last night as every time he moved I thought my hips were gonna snap. But other than that everything is good 😊. Starting to get real now that I’m in single digits for weeks left

OP posts:
Daniki · 17/09/2025 09:49

@Marie1990xhow many left now? Ah it’s awful tho isn’t it! Have you an exercise ball? Not be long 🥰 i know I was in an awful panic with the sight of the blood but Jesus I was glad I was here in that moment 😂 xx

Marie1990x · 17/09/2025 10:01

I’m 30 weeks but my section should be 9 weeks from now, I haven’t got my date yet but all being well!
I thought I had it from last time but I can’t find it. Husbands job is to find me one today 😂. I have a wheat bag that’s taking the edge off at the moment.
I bet! Anything with blood in pregnancy is so scary isn’t it. I can’t believe your little one will be here in a maximum of 2 weeks! Seems 5 mins ago we were obsessing over our lines 😂 x

Daniki · 18/09/2025 21:33

Well she’s here 🥰 bleeding and back pain got so bad last night and this morning I went for an emergency section today! She’s flying it, off the oxygen now so may just have to stay in NICU for the wknd to be monitored just! ❤️ can’t believe it 😂

@Marie1990xdoing good! Don’t have much pain atm hoping I’m not too rough tomorrow 😂 can’t believe she’s here either tbh! 😂😂

Marie1990x · 19/09/2025 02:06

@Daniki such a beautiful name 🩷 hahaha wouldn’t worry about mummy pig, no one refers to the name George and thinks of them 😂.

So glad you’re feeling good, too. Hoping you all get to go home soon. Eeeek so happy for you 🥹 xxx

@Daniki congratulations 🥳

whatdoyouthink123456 · 19/09/2025 08:24

@Daniki thats a lovely name 🥰 luckily my son doesn’t like peppa pig, so I didn’t even know they had a baby.

how is she doing? X

Daniki · 19/09/2025 22:46

Thanks ladies! We’re both doing good, she got downgraded to the special care unit today and if her sugars remain stable tomorrow then she can be discharged from them and out to me, and we’ll hopefully both get home Sunday 🤞🏻 really hope she does and I can put this whole experience behind us 😂🙈 very sore this eve and stil haven’t slept so really hoping I sleep tonight 🤞🏻🫶🏻

Marie1990x · 20/09/2025 07:46

@Daniki amazing news, so happy for you. How much did she weigh?

ah bless you, try get some rest (easier said than done). I can empathise with the whole NICU stay, you think you can have some rest but just want to be there all the time don’t you.

Arghhhh home time is in sight! You’ve spent enough time there you’ll have forgotten what your house looks like 😂.

Daniki · 22/09/2025 23:06

@Marie1990xgot some sleep Friday night it was well needed, the nurse said she couldn’t even wake me for the monitoring and meds, just found them all on the table when I woke the next morning 😂 Evie got out then sat to me to the ears and we got home Sunday! Haven’t slept properly since the great sleep but what do ya do it’s great to be home finally 🙌🏻😂 she was 6 pound 7 when she was born, not much less than my son born at full term! Xx

Marie1990x · 23/09/2025 08:19

@Daniki haha must have needed it! Oh amazing that you’re home! Bet it feels so good to be in your own comforts rather than the hospital after so long.
great weight for her being early! Awww bet you’re all thrilled. How’s your son with her? X

OP posts:
Daniki · 24/09/2025 00:03

@Marie1990xonot getting back now it’s been a really long day! We had her outpatient appointment today to check her jaundice levels and heel prick test, her levels have gone back up so she’s been admitted back into the hospital to go back under the lights, thank god I’m allowed with her! Cried the whole day thinking I’m a terrible mother as her weight dropped more and they said I wasn’t giving her enough formula even tho I’m breastfeeding for the most part 🙈 anywho in here now and they have me expressing so I’m measuring exactly what she’s getting and topping up with formula to be at what she needs, she looks extremely chilled out under there so hoping we get home tomorrow she’ll have a blood test at 7am 🤞🏻

My son is great with her, he was so upset this evening to come home and me and her been gone 🥺

Marie1990x · 24/09/2025 10:27

@Daniki oh no what an emotional rollercoaster! Please don’t feel like you’re a bad mum for that! That’s so bad that they’d said you’re not giving her enough, could have put it nicer! But as you know babies weights go up and down, she’ll be absolutely fine and hopefully you’ll be back come soon as.

awww bless him, that made me all emotional reading that 🥺 x
