@Prayingformyrainbow93 thank you I'll keep that in mind as I'm a wimp aswell with pain haha! Xx

@calimc83 @barneymcgroo thank you I have a bed but there's two ladies waiting to be induced before me so no idea if it will be today or not, I hope so xx

calimc83 · 19/11/2022 09:13

@arianasky fingers crossed for you! Have u bought loads of stuff in to keep u entertained? xx

Prayingformyrainbow93 · 19/11/2022 09:20

I’m really not a wimp with pain but it was unbelievable just get the epidural and then you don’t have to experience any of it! Eek best of luck, it’s all more than worth it when you hold your miracle baby at the end of it ♥️ @arianasky

Skl2021 · 19/11/2022 09:49

@arianasky good luck today!! Definitely ask for pain relief earlier as if it's anything like my labour it happened to fast for me to have anything 🤦 can't wait to see your updates 🌈🤞🙌 come on baby! X

B1993 · 19/11/2022 10:13

@arianasky hope all goes well for you today! Looking forward to another new baby update 🥰

Arwen7 · 19/11/2022 16:35

@arianasky thinking of you! Hope you don't have to wait for too long. Xxx

arianasky · 19/11/2022 19:33

Thank you all, I had the pessary at 12:15 and only have some slight cramps in my thighs at the moment not holding out much hope of anything happening tonight tbh x

Skl2021 · 20/11/2022 18:07

calimc83 · 21/11/2022 07:32

@arianasky Hope u are ok lovely? Did anyone morning sickness return in the 2nd trimester. Been feeling 🤢 these last few days x

FfayeN · 21/11/2022 10:44

@speake1 hi lovely. I hope all is well with you and the little one?
Could I just ask what consultant you went with at Nova if you can remember?
Thanks so much in advance xxx

Skl2021 · 21/11/2022 15:25

@Bridgey8 how u doing? X

Bridgey8 · 21/11/2022 16:20

@Skl2021 we are ok I think! How are you getting on? Can't believe Rafe is almost 11 weeks...

speake1 · 21/11/2022 16:42

@FfayeN it was Dr Lamiya Mohiyiddeen xx

Skl2021 · 21/11/2022 16:46

@Bridgey8 time is absolutely flying isnt it! U nearly have a 3 month old 😭🙊 were doing ok I'm finding it harder this time 🤦 he seems unhappy alot so we have been trying different milks and things for wind. We don't know if he's intolerant to something or if he's got colic just a guessing game right now 😩 x

Bridgey8 · 21/11/2022 16:47

@Skl2021 we had a lot of problems with wind and reflux so he's on gaviscon at night and kendalmil seems to be the formula he's best on. Bloody minefield tho! How many weeks are you now?

FfayeN · 21/11/2022 16:51

@speake1 😘

Skl2021 · 21/11/2022 18:35

@Bridgey8 yes sounds like us! I don't know if it could be silent reflux. Were just guessing with things. We were going to try kendamil I have heard good things about it but we decided on hipp as it was easier to get hold off. Has the gaviscon worked? I have heard it makes them constipated? Didn't want to make another problem! Max is 7 weeks! How was the injections? X

sunnyd67 · 22/11/2022 20:58

@arianasky I hope you are OK! 😇

barneymcgroo · 24/11/2022 09:50

@arianasky Hope you're okay. X

Hiya all sorry I haven't updated everything has been a bit manic, baby Myles is here, induction ended in a emergency section after 36 hours and only getting to 7cm, he had got his head stuck in my cervix and tore my uterus 😬 the section took 3 hours with 3 blood transfusions and a lot of repair work to the uterus but he's a dream and I'm so overwhelmed I finally have my rainbow 🌈 💙it's like a dream come true and I'm truly in that newborn bubble at the moment xx

flowergarden16 · 24/11/2022 21:43

@arianasky so many congrats!

Sorry you had a tricky time and really
Hope you are recovering well. Sounds a bit like my first birth!

Put that all behind you now and enjoy your beautiful baby. Flowers

Srx1 · 24/11/2022 22:22

Oh wow @arianasky congratulations 💐 Sorry it was tough, enjoy your baby 🥰

barneymcgroo · 24/11/2022 22:33

@arianasky Gosh, that sounds tough - but so amazing that he's here. Hope you're not too sore - don't try to do too much! Cuddle your gorgeous little person - love the name. Congratulations! 🌈🥰
