And so ready to have their baby??!!

I have my sweep booked in and I'm convinced I'll be overdue! I just don't want to be pregnant for 1 more week let alone 2!

Congratulations @DoingItForTheKids
Wonderful news and it sounds as though it was a very smooth landing for baby! Hope you are feeling ok today, take it easy!

Any other new babies arrive overnight?

cja06 · 02/06/2019 12:39

@Furble not for me

cowchickenduckdog · 02/06/2019 12:51

I'm still waiting too I'm afraid...41 weeks now. Hopefully something will happen/be decided at my hospital midwife appointment tomorrow! xx

cja06 · 03/06/2019 08:41

Good luck today @cowchickenduckdog

RiverMeadow · 03/06/2019 12:46

I've been so hopeless at keeping up to date with all the babies!

Congratulations to all the new mummies.

Good luck to all still waiting, your time will soon be here! Thanks

@cja06 thank you!! I’m getting induced on Thursday (unless little pickle arrives earlier). Starting to get excited and nervous now!! 😁😁xxx

cja06 · 04/06/2019 14:49

@cowchickenduckdog that's great news, hopefully bubs will be with you before you know it.

I went in for my induction today but not much happened tbh. They monitored the baby, checked my stats, gave me a sweep and sent me on my way.

I've been told to wait at home until they have space for me on the labour ward, could be hours, could be days.

Not really what I was expecting tbh, bit deflating but a step in the right direction I guess.

cowchickenduckdog · 05/06/2019 23:12

@cja06 How are things? Sorry to hear you felt deflated. I hope things have moved forward for you?! I'm in tomorrow to get induced but who knows what will happen! Fingers crossed things go to plan! xxx

cja06 · 06/06/2019 06:18

Good luck for today @cowchickenduckdog hopefully they will be helpful and get things moving along for you.

I haven't been called it yet unfortunately. I've been position 3 for two days and after chasing them yesterday, they did say I was now top of the list.

Hopefully I will hear something today. I'm 13 days over now so they can't leave me much longer I'm sure.

cowchickenduckdog · 06/06/2019 09:31

Fingers and toes crossed for you @cja06 really feel for you x I'm in at 3pm so will see what happens...

cja06 · 06/06/2019 09:34

Thank you @cowchickenduckdog, I've been bumped back down the list again so not that hopeful at the moment.

Lorrie3 · 06/06/2019 11:07

Best of luck ladies going in today! It's frustrating but I was in your position last week and after a long 30 hours Friday into Saturday I'm here in a coocon of newborn love and all the past is forgotten.. Try remian positive but i know ita very hard.

Good luck and hope to hear of some babies soon x

DoingItForTheKids · 06/06/2019 11:40

Sending loads of labour dust to those still waiting! Hoping for new babies safely delivered soon x

cowchickenduckdog · 10/06/2019 14:11

I had my boy on the 7th - things went a little pair shaped (slight understatement!) but we're still both here thanks to some brilliant doctors. I'm now a very happy Mummy with a very healthy happy son and a very shaken but now happy OH bless him :) I hope all of you have had yours now and are ok xxx

cja06 · 10/06/2019 15:03

Congrats @cowchickenduckdog I'm glad your little one is finally here and you're both ok.

My little one arrived last Thursday but my induction didn't go to plan either. Was quite traumatic and ended up being an emergency c section. We're both doing ok now but I can completely relate - hope you're doing ok too :)

Furble · 10/06/2019 17:18

Congratulations! @cowchickenduckdog and @cja06so glad to hear of your safe arrivals and that everyone is doing ok now. Hope you are getting some rest and recovering ok so far!

Lorrie3 · 16/06/2019 08:46

How is everyone getting on? I have to say at 2 weeks our little baby Jo has been a dream but I kno the journey isn't as easy for everyone

Tayel · 16/06/2019 09:20

@lorrie3 glad everything is all good with you and baby!
My little lady is 16days.
Ive had baby blues which for the last few days have been pretty bad but ive decided im going to try and beat it rather than let it consume me, im praying its baby blues and not post natal depression but im going to actively try fix it x

HalfBloodPrincess · 16/06/2019 09:21

Our little girl is 3 weeks old today and I must say that these 3 weeks have flown by so fast compared to the week before we were waiting for her.

She’s an absolute darling and nurses like a pro. I’m really enjoying being her mummy right now.
The sleep deprivation is hard this time as I also have a very demanding almost 2 year old that has just dropped his naps, so can’t sleep when she sleeps, but I know this stage won’t last much longer so just having to brazen it out for now.

Hope all you new mummies are coping well x

Dvg · 16/06/2019 09:22

39 weeks and getting induced on monday, so excited :D I couldnt handle another week.

Furble · 16/06/2019 10:54

@HalfBloodPrincess
Congratulations! Our son is also 3 weeks old today, currently enjoying a sneaky cuddle as a means of chore avoidance! I seem to be handling the sleep deprivation better second time around and am just trying to enjoy every moment as I know he’ll grow so quickly. Hope all the new mummies are enjoying their beautiful babies!

1Rose19 · 16/06/2019 19:55

I am 36+1 I am booked for induction week 38,39,40 and booked in to induction week 42 I am trying to give birth VBAC however I do not want to be induced so late because I went over due last time and needed up emergency c section. also my placenta is 2.4cm away from the os site am worried something will go wrong :(

RiverMeadow · 16/06/2019 20:02

Hi everyone! All good over here too. Sleep deprived but totally worth it.

Hope everyone else is well Thanks
