Just thought I'd better start a new thread for those of you who would like to see updates before the old one is totally full.

All still good here! I've been a bit low on iron but the tablets REALLY don't agree with me. So I've started just taking one in the morning with orange juice, and having a spoonful of Floridix in the afternoon and making an effort to eat spinach and red meat.
I've been feeling baby OMG moving around a lot more now he's getting bigger and stronger, which is lovely although slightly alarming at times!

We've probably got a maximum of 7 weeks to go now as I understand the drs are not keen for older mums to go much over 39 weeks. Eeeek.
Will keep you all posted.

I didn't see your original post OMG but just spent an hour or so catching up... I'm sending huge hugs via this post and hope everything is going well...

Good luck

I am so glad to read other mnetters are as invested as I am. If you write it down it sounds batshit 'I'm really excited, nervous and invested in the arrival of a baby due to a woman that I have never and will never meet, a woman who I don't even know their name but that feels part of my life, and is someone that I have much more interest and care for than some of my own extended family'

Oh OP I feel I have gone around every emotion with you since your very first post.

I hope LO is either here snuggled in your arms, or not too far away!

Exciting times. Good luck. We are all rooting for you.

From your very first post us ‘aunties’ have had the pleasure of going through this with you! You let us into your secret at the beginning and we are privileged to be here when you give birth to your baby boy! 💙😘

Congrats op so excited for you

Oh my goodness! I knew from the massive increase of posts it must be time as I only checked yesterday! I hope you have your gorgeous baby boy in your arms now.

Best of luck op 💕💐

Good luck OP! I’ll be thinking of you! I remember opening up your original thread thinking it was about a positive covid test result! Thank you so much for keeping us updated. We are with you!

this whole thread has been such a tonic. OP, I am delighted for you. Sitting in bed with a massive smile on my face. I hope all is going well in the labour suite. ❤️

Also, can I suggest voting this for a classics. It’s just wonderful.

Gah, so excited for you!

Ahhh, I've been scrolling down this thread hoping I hadn't missed the birth!!! @Omgwhatthehell you've got this ... we are all so excited for you ♥️💐

Anyone else not going to bed?!

Hi everyone. Thank you for the well wishes.
I’m about to go onto a hormone drip as the gel hasn’t progressed things much.
I will probably sign off again now until I have actual baby news.

Just another MN ‘Auntie’ who read your original thread and who’s just seen this, sending enormous best wishes. You’ve got this!
