Morning all!
Bushy - how are you? Assuming that things have gone very quiet because you have your hands full but would be lovely to hear from you that all was well.
jellie how did you enjoy your NCT class? Hope you got some great birth position ideas. The basic message from our class seemed to be to keep moving and not be on your back, with lots of use of birth balls, etc.
gill How are you feeling?
The socializing bit was the best bit for me of the nct as lots of the material we covered was stuff I'd already picked up from the berries. The people are lovely though and all the due dates very close, so it will be exciting seeing everyone progress to having babies. We only finished class end of July and have already had a lunch together and are planning and evening meal too, so the socializing aspect seems to work very well.
You're right that we'll need a new thread list soon - I think the old one is now a couple of pages back in the comments - with birth/due dates and gender (where known) on. If you need my info it's: EDD 21/08/15 boy... Eeeeek just 17 days away!
pixie how are you enjoying mat leave? Have you got lots you'd like to get done before the little one arrives or will you mostly use it to catch up on rest?
lady thank you for the tip for juju's book. I have been reading through it and finding it really interesting. It provides an interesting contrast to the hypnobirthing - which tries to prevent any adrenaline building up I think, whereas Juju finds ways to use it.
How are you and baby A?
wild hb how are you getting on?
I have another growth scan today which I hope will go well as I am still trying to get transferred to the birth centre from consultant care. I just hope the baby has put on enough weight that they don't find new things to be concerned about as he was measuring a bit small last time (round about the 20th percentile).
