I'm 38w today but have been diagnosed with obstetric cholestasis (I had it last time and was induced at 38+1). I've done a lot of research though and am planning to go to 39w to wait and see (and hopefully have my homebirth), then reconsider induction. One of the side effects of OC is spontaneous premature labour, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping it will be soon!

Send some labour inducing vibes my way please!

Bouncy ball I tell you!!! WinkWink

Ds1 has just gone to bed! Ds2 was asleep before 7 but didnt have his nap earlier and i can hear ds3 making noises.

Ive been sat playing Candy Crush and 4pics for the past 2 hours! I need to bring the bouncy castle in, hang some washing out, put some in, hoover and clean sick off the carpet that bounced off my leg Grin

Ds1&2 were inductions at 42+11 and I'd had a sweep (Friday) and got on the ball and contractions started at 2.20am Sunday morning and out he came at 8.30! I pooped in the pool Wink

I hope you go into labour on your own so you can be at home. Get naked just before dh opens the door then he'll not say no Wink

TMI ALERT! After he has left his man glitter up there make sure you have a strong orgasm after, it'll be like a contraction anyway.

There are more gross ones. Wink

Found the gym ball and have half pumped it up, but you need serious muscle for that so I'm going to get DH to do the rest after he's put DS to sleep.

NappyHappy · 02/06/2013 21:18

Excellent stuff. Are you at that feeling really heavy stage now?

I really hope you get your home birth. I really wanted one with ds3 but DH worries about 'what if something went wrong?'.

We have tooth number 2 coming through ds3's gums poor sausage Hmm . Tried him again with finger food and puked everywhere again. This one is definitely a hater of solid things!

Is your airer up yet WinkWink

BiscuitCrumbsInBed · 02/06/2013 22:18

NH your advice has made me laugh and I can't tell DH why Grin

Everyhing crossed for you R !

NappyHappy · 02/06/2013 23:33

Good. Just as long as you didn't have a mouthful of tea and spat it everywhere. That would have been a disaster.

Ive won some Blueberry wraps on ebay! But have been done again for the second time in a month Hmm both over clothes. Grr. Should receive the buggyboard tomorrow too, I had to sell my Lascal one as it didn't fit ds3's buggy. Grr. I have 7 watchers on the double Maclaren so hopefully that will sell! I didn't get on with it but do with the singles.

Wonder how Le BFG is getting on?

LeBFG · 03/06/2013 09:20

Marking spot (towels handy). I love a good birth thread Grin. Keep us updated rreow. When my waters went we laughed hysterically (I was on hands and knees at the time), then I almost immediately cried like a baby (transition!) Blush.

Doing Wizard Duos o/n with DS now but potty training has stalled. Argh. On the otherhand some speech progress: DS now says a few words in French and has just started putting two words together. He's very pleased with himself.

NappyHappy · 03/06/2013 12:56

Brilliant! Ds2's new word is NO! He only says a few things but not clearly just yet. Even better your DS says French words! How are you feeling?

rrreow · 03/06/2013 14:50

Days before I'm due to give birth DS1 has figured out how to climb out of his cot Sad BRILLIANT TIMING DS!!! Not sure what to do about this. Any advice?

On a more positive note, the builders are putting up my laundry rack today!!

LeBFG · 03/06/2013 14:53

Haha rreow, I never had that problem. Perhaps time for a toddler bed? yay for the laudry rack.

I'm fine Nappy, just having wars with our Mayor (don't get me started - I'm hating france at the minute!). How are your babes sleeping?

NappyHappy · 03/06/2013 17:25

sniggers ds2 brill. Ds1 11fecking pm! But its the holidays and ds3 still wakes 4hrly and was up at 4.30am. Upstairs has blackout blinds/curtains in all rooms. He has 1 tooth through and 2 more almost through. They're annoying him more than anything and he is desperate to crawl.

Rrr, you must let us know how you get on with ds and his Houdini attempts tonight. Can only suggest what I showed you on FB Hmm apart from velcro! Is he in a grobag type thing?

NappyHappy · 03/06/2013 17:26

Need to see pics of rack Wink

rrreow · 03/06/2013 17:40

Oh yeah thank god you've reminded me he's in a grobag at night so won't be able to climb out!!! WOOOOOP!!!

That's not the first time someone has asked to see pics of my boobs online Grin

NappyHappy · 03/06/2013 18:38

Lol that was quick! I thought after I'd sent it! Ha. Rack. Ha.

Ds1 is having his first sleepover tonight. His friends mum said for me to feed him then send him back over as he'll probably not eat what she cooks! They live at the bottom of the walk which is about 3 houses away so can get him if he starts being a pain.

NappyHappy · 04/06/2013 13:10

I have another convert Smile

rrreow · 04/06/2013 14:19

Ooh good going! I'm hoping to make some converts once DS2 is born and I go to some mummy & baby groups.

NappyHappy · 04/06/2013 15:53

Fingers crossed Smile spreading the fwuffee luff. Its beautiful outside and the nappies have been out since last night Blush
Ds2 is in a crinkly Fuzzi and you can hear him rustle when he waddlesGrin

PurplePidjin · 04/06/2013 19:04

I've got one nappy convert and at least half a dozen sling converts! Shock

I wasn't even trying, Mrs NiceLady at the surestart reckons it's because i show up looking glam and we make it look easy, but she's lying

NappyHappy · 04/06/2013 20:01

Yay! Ive never seen you look shit though Smile

Omg CSI is apparently starting from the beginning in CBS Action. Must record it!

How is R sleeping?

PurplePidjin · 05/06/2013 14:28

Envy we've only got freeview

R sleeps like shit still. Threw me a couple of 7-8 hour stints last week but was back to the 1.5 hourlies last night. He can sit properly unsupported this morning though, which explains it. He's just gone down for his nap, fed for nearly an hour Shock it's been 15 minutes recently, haven't had one that long in months!

Sounds like how my friends ds is sleeping, she's absolutely knacked and narky. He just wants boob all the time and wont settle without it. I lent her my Elizabeth Pantly NCSS book to see if that might help.

Im just glad ds2 sorts himself out now through the night and has almost cut out the headbashing.

Ds3 is passed out in the front garden and ds1 has legged it to his friends house.

Is ds still eating like a greedy thing?

NappyHappy · 05/06/2013 17:20

Ds3 still sleeps shit too Confused

PurplePidjin · 05/06/2013 19:30

I have other stuff i try first if he's wakeful, and it mostly works - unless he's hungry. In which case, i feed him. But i try the ssh pat rock stuff if it's been less than 3 hours.

I know he can. Which means he will again please god let it be tonight

Christening all booked, invitations bought and list compiled. Been browsing outfits. Some are hilarious. Satin knickerbockers anyone?
