That should say @jojanna, silly autocorrect!

Nic2908 · 05/11/2020 18:34

@jojanna congratulations!!

lionsmum · 05/11/2020 18:58

@jojanna another baby to welcome to the group, huge congratulations!💖

LRHRN · 05/11/2020 19:26

@jojanna Congratulations ❤️

Dee96 · 05/11/2020 21:11

@jojanna so weird I kept checking the forum because I felt like someone was going to pop today! What a quick development congratulations. 5 hour labour sounds quite ideal Grin

Sheera1 · 05/11/2020 21:20

Well done @jojanna
What a lovely birth story. I had aches last night and was thinking maybe it was go time, ut think it was just the curry I ate for tea. Lol.

jalu47 · 05/11/2020 22:42

Great news @december2020 - 50th percentile sounds ideal! Although not all babies are big with GD - hopefully the monitoring will clear things up!

peachypetite · 06/11/2020 04:12

Argh been up constantly needing the toilet tonight. Anyone else awake?

Kj1010 · 06/11/2020 07:40

Morning all had a fairly decent nights sleep for the first time in a while and so happy this morning as now only 5 days left at work then can begin proper nesting for this little one spent yesterday helping oh decorate and ordering xmas prezzie for my three kids as with what is going on u just dont know how we gonna be on 2nd of december and even if we are open can u imagine the big rush will be manic every where plus depending on this little one if he turns or not I could be in for csection that week so just planning ahead so thankfully only have a little more to do and then it will be for the xmas food shop them I'm done can happily sit in my home relaxing

LRHRN · 06/11/2020 07:46

@peachypetite I've slept really....well inbetween the 55 toilet trips 😖 I don't mind when it's a proper wee but it's so annoying when it's just a drop 😫

I've been having mild contractions since yesterday lunch time, horrendous back ache, about 5 poos (sorry) and I've weighed myself this morning and have lost 7lb which apparently is also a sign baby is getting ready 🤞🏼xx

NaomiB79 · 06/11/2020 08:20

@jojanna congratulations on the birth of your baby girl - that's brilliant news!! Let us know how you are both getting on when you get the chance xx

kkr168 · 06/11/2020 08:38

I managed to sleep until 5.30am so better then yesterday but still not great.
@LRHRN that sounds promising, hopefully things keep progressing for you.

Babyhope98 · 06/11/2020 08:56

I woke up for a few hours in the night but better than some other nights have been lately 😅

peachypetite · 06/11/2020 09:25

@LRHRN how exciting, keep moving! When is your due date?

EithneBlue · 06/11/2020 10:16

@jojanna - Congratulations!! :-)

Quite a few tommee tippee items are on offer on amazon today

peachypetite · 06/11/2020 11:18

Anyone got any good recipes for freezer? So far I have flapjacks and blueberry muffins frozen and have just made batch of carrot soup.

LRHRN · 06/11/2020 11:40

@peachypetite not until the 28th but it's my third so you never know 🤷🏼‍♀️
Last baby I was in slow labour for 6 weeks and was dilated 2cm but she didn't come until her due date so it will be just my luck again x

EithneBlue · 06/11/2020 11:46

@peachypetite
These are some good meals that I have made - they're all complete meals so no need for additional cooking faff - defrost/oven/eat :-) I am not normally one for the non-eco approach, but on this occasion I have mostly used foil containers for frozen food so it's super easy to fill the freezer with meals :-)

Freezing flapjack sounds like a great idea: do you have a recipe?

Dee96 · 06/11/2020 11:52

I honestly thought things were kicking off last night. Had a dodgy stomach towards the end of the night, then really bad lower back pain that shot up and radiated around my lower abdomen. Finally fell asleep around 2 but woke up every half an hour or hour with it as it was that bad. I was half asleep but trying to time them to see if there was any pattern. But this morning I've woken up to nothing.... so have no clue what that was about Confused

Kj1010 · 06/11/2020 12:13

So ladies I'm having a rough morning so a few weeks ago I was eating dinner and after felt summat was stuck in between tooth n gum so me being silly was picking at my gum with my nail still felt like summat was in gum so I've gone to look in mirror and where I had been poking and digging nail i mad my gum bleed but also thought it looked strange dunno if its coz what I was doing so being a anxious person started prodding stabbling at my gum to the point I can pull it from the tooth and making it bleed and sore after showing everyone but the dentist I calmed down left it but this morning tasted like blood in mouth so I've had a look no blood but silly enough see white stuff on tooth n gum so scraped it and gum started bleeding again so I've been upset crying all day googling what it can be and obviously worst case scenario mouth cancer and I've pulled it so much it aches down that side I've plucked up the courage to ring dentist cant fit me in for 2 weeks but by what I told receptionist he thinks is pregnancy related even tho I sed it looks like a growth to me so now I'm following his advice as to brush gums and teeth with corsydil tooth paste and mouth wash he sed to the point the gums bleed my oh sed it just looks like inflamed gums and sed if he thought it looked that weird he wud get me up hospital etc I'm just so worried and anxious I dont know how to calm myself it doesn't help I'm a constant worrier of cancer etc I think it's where my mum has stage 4 lung my age and going to be a older mum I havent exactly led a healthy life style over weight like to have a drink etc so I think all this is playing on top any advice on how to try and keep calm and put things in to perspective like it could be infection abscess etc ino but my mind keeps going to the dark side p.s sorry for the long rant

Exciting! 👏🏼

LRHRN · 06/11/2020 12:47

@Kj1010 don't google anything cause it will always tell you that you have cancer!
I'm terrible for doing this and it can drive you mad.
It's probably just an abscess/infection from you picking at it. Keep following the dentists advice and try salt water too.
If you're worried phone the doctors and tell them you can't be seen for 2 weeks but are concerned with being pregnant.
Try not to stress about it cause it's not good for you and little bubs 💕

Kj1010 · 06/11/2020 13:03

@LRHRN ino I am the worst for googling I just feel its coz it looks like a lump not raised but I'm not a professional also think coz I looked a pics of mouth cancer my mind is saying yep that's what's urs looks like etc but will follow what dentist said and try keep calm xx thankyou

Kj1010 · 06/11/2020 13:05

@LRHR p.s trying to get in my doctors is impossible cant even get in when kids are ill it's so bad honestly
