Me! Due March 21st and got one more week left at work. It’s my first baby. At the moment I still have times where it all doesn’t feel really still! I don’t think it’ll feel real until he’s in my arms. I had my health visitor appointment yesterday though so that got me quite excited. I’m also quite scared about labour and something going wrong.

Another one due on 17th March with my first! I have another two weeks of work left and I can not wait to finish and just relax!

Blabbermouth93 · 16/02/2019 20:22

Its the start stop contractions that are getting me they stop me in my tracks my fiance keeps saying i need to breathe as i stand there gritting my teeth and hold my breath lol ... not long ladies what's everyone's birth plan so far natural / pain meds home birth c-section or hospital birth ?? Xx

Thegirlwithnousername · 16/02/2019 20:33

I haven't done a birth plan yet..Well I still have my one from DS but I will just condense it down a bit haha!.
I am really not prepared this time around yet!

Blabbermouth93 · 16/02/2019 20:39

Haha i never write one as we all know it goes out the window anyways lol

I've had all 3 so far with gas and air one in birthing pool but was a long labour with complications so couldn't enjoy it.

2nd birth he came out within 10 mins of arriving at hosp.

3rd was a induction and drip with gas and air.

This one may be another induction in 2 weeks and if so im asking for a epidural just to see what its like having a pain free labour.

It's my last baby i want to know what I've been missing haha.

Knowing me I'll go naturally and miss my epi lol xx

Thegirlwithnousername · 16/02/2019 21:35

Very true!
Have you all got names sorted?
We are team yellow and really struggling to settle on a Boys name!

Blabbermouth93 · 16/02/2019 21:39

No name settled yet my 3 boys all had names by now but first girl and we can't decide on a name typical lol it's starting to stress me out lol xx

Didn’t bother with a birth plan with my first- figured can’t control what happens so may as well go with the flow. I just had paracetamol and gas and air when I had him- I’d like to stick to those 2 again but I can remember reaching a point where I asked for something more and they said I was too late. So we will see!!!

We have a name sorted!i hope we still like it when she’s born and we don’t end up looking at her and thinking- no that doesn’t suit her!!!

Our little boy is beyond excited, I don’t think he believes it’s actually happening though because he’s had to wait so long!

Katie1962 · 19/02/2019 13:12

I'm due on the 28th with my first! I'm so excited I just want him here now.
Lost my mucus plug on Saturday and although it's still quite early I couldn't help being kiddy but nothing else is happening yet.

AwkwardAsAllGetout · 19/02/2019 13:18

I’m due the last day of March, and we’re moving house at the end of next week. It feels insane atm. I feel in denial about it all, I can’t belive we’re moving and I can’t believe that there’ll be a baby at the end of all this. I’m hoping after the madness of moving I’ll get chance to relax a little and prepare mentally for the new little one. This will be number 4 so the others keep me busy. The one thing I’m really looking forward to is preparing a nursery. None of my others have had their own room before they were born, so setting up a cot and making a room lovely, even though it won’t really be used for 6 months, is a really exciting thing for me. And I’m hoping my dreadful PGP doesn’t hang around after the birth as I’m feeling severely restricted by pain every day and haven’t slept properly in months.

babystripes · 19/02/2019 16:57

I'm due the 16th March feeling so much pressure in my hips and pelvis at the minute! I can't wait to be able to walk and not be in pain at this point lol

VioletGInPlease · 19/02/2019 17:43

I'm pregnant with my 4th too and can't seem to wrap my head around having a baby here either even though i already have 3 how strange is that.

I lost another bit of my plug today but been loosing it since 29 weeks so fed up still strong stop start contractions.

I'm being monitored twice weekly for reduced movement with anterior placenta and she was so quiet today they had to get me a cup of tea and biccies to try wake her up she was very quiet yesterday too so had me on edge as was induced with my third at 38 weeks due to reduced movement and iugr.

I see the consultant next week so scary to think they could be inducing me in 2 weeks eeek lol also a hormonal mess today over my dog who passed away last year ? Xxx

Thegirlwithnousername · 20/02/2019 13:56

I have finally started to pack my hospital bag! 36+3 weeks so thought I better start Haha!.

Blabbermouth93 · 20/02/2019 14:07

Haha i still have things to put in mine ... anybody feeling very frustrated at just about everything now ? Then i feel emotional/angry for feeling emotional haha hormones are great aren't they.

I bite my dp head of just for looking at me strange bloody shame on him.

And i always feel fluey at this time in pregnancy was choked up with my third too starting to feel sorry for myself xx
