Wow! It sounds like your appointment took you from 0-60, @sunnyd67! I hope everything goes (or went by now?) well!! Can't wait for your update soon 🥰

sunnyd67 · 02/11/2022 07:22

No change at the moment except very sore bits 😢😢 I felt like the examination was rough.
No contractions/tightenings as of yet.

arianasky · 02/11/2022 07:31

@sunnyd67 eee bet that was a shock! Hopefully things progress quickly and your little one is in your arms soon 💕

flowergarden16 · 02/11/2022 09:23

@sunnyd67 I had an induction last time - no pain at all as I had the epidural. Do not let them anywhere near you with it until you have an epidural! Good luck

My section is booked for Monday. So scared but also excited to meet baby boy just hope he's ok and I don't bleed too much with the previa

Hope your little ones are all ok and good luck with the scan @calimc83

Wow @sunnyd67 that escalated quickly! Looking forward to hearing news of your bubba’s safe arrival soon 💙

@Skl2021 sounds like your little man is having a time of it. How did you find the snipping of his tongue tie? We’ve just had a referral and absolutely dreading it! Please tell me it isn’t as awful as it sounds xxx

Skl2021 · 02/11/2022 13:22

@speake1 I was the same dreading it! But it was honestly fine we were in and out within 5 mins and that was paperwork and everything. We didn't see It happen as we were told to wait in the waiting room but by the time we got there the nurse was basically behind us with him! He cried for a second and then was fine and had a bottle straight away! And only a tiny bit of blood hardly anything! X

arianasky · 02/11/2022 13:54

@Skl2021 ah glad max's you get tie is sorted and it wasn't traumatic for you or him 💕

speake1 · 02/11/2022 13:58

@Skl2021 aww that’s so great & so reassuring, thank you! It just sounds so awful but clearly must not actually affect them too much 🙏🏼 Hope feeding etc is easier for you now it’s done xx

Skl2021 · 02/11/2022 14:09

@arianasky thanks how u doing ♥️ x

@speake1 no I was expecting way worse. They said it can sometimes look a bit like an ulcer while healing or obviously can get infected but Max's seems fine can't tell he's had anything done! They even said some babies sleep through it! So obviously can't be too painful. I think it's just skin anyway so shouldn't be too bad! Hope yours goes ok too! X

calimc83 · 02/11/2022 14:58

@sunnyd67 oh wow!! Good luck, hope all is going well 😍. 20 week scan went fine..this was the first scan my DH has been to this pregnancy. Had been trying to protect him from bad news 🙈. Having a surprise this time! @Skl2021 xx

Skl2021 · 02/11/2022 15:00

@calimc83 great news 🎉♥️ u can breathe a little now 🙌 half way there! Do you have a feeling of what baby is? 💜💙 Xx

flowergarden16 · 02/11/2022 15:06

@sunnyd67 hope it all goes quickly and smoothly for you!

@calimc83 that's great, glad your scan went well.

I'm 30 weeks now and have one of the dreaded colds doing the rounds at the moment. Feel awful and can't take any time off work at the mo as so busy 😭

sunnyd67 · 02/11/2022 18:19

@calimc83 I am glad your scan went well! ❤️

I'm still the same, I had some tightenings for a bit, had a nap and now no sign of them! Dreading midnight when they take out the strip..

calimc83 · 02/11/2022 18:26

@Sassy144 @sunnyd67 @barneymcgroo @Skl2021 ahh thanks girls! 😍 told my 2 just now..they are so excited! 'But how did baby get in there...' is a common theme at the moment 😂😂. I'm thinking possibly boy? Just because it was upside down and in a super awkward position 🙈😆 x

calimc83 · 02/11/2022 18:36

@sunnyd67 are u allowed to walk about at all? X

sunnyd67 · 02/11/2022 19:35

@calimc83 they seem to be offering walks to everyone but us, I think it's due to blood pressure. I might ask, I'm walking around in circles around my bed and bouncing on the birthing ball.

Skl2021 · 02/11/2022 19:55

@calimc83 awww 😍 bet they can't wait! Haha good luck explaining that 🙊 yes must definitely be a boy if the awkwardness has started 🤣😝 will be a lovely surprise anyway! X

@sunnyd67 hope something happens soon for you 🤞 have they said what will happen next do u try something different? X

sunnyd67 · 02/11/2022 21:19

@Skl2021 Two more tablets to go in, if nothing happens by 6pm tomorrow they might offer c-section, because I most definitely not having a balloon put it - freaks me out!

Skl2021 · 02/11/2022 21:24

@sunnyd67 aww I hope something happens before then 🤞 don't think they offer balloon round were I am! Can they not pop waters? Hopefully these next tablets do the trick try and catch some sleep while u can! Your one stop closer to baby 😍 x

arianasky · 02/11/2022 21:54

@Skl2021 I'm good thank you, 37 weeks now and starting to feel it, lots of pressure down below and just feel huge but good thank you 💕
