Congratulations @Gizmo1983, sorry you had a difficult birth. Wishing you a smooth recovery! 💕

Congratulations @Sunshinemoom, after all the uncertainty you’ve had in the last few weeks/months it must be a relief to have baby boy in your arms 💙

@Confusedmermaid1honestly never been happier that he is here. I had a really good team of staff in theatre, who all knew me from all of these stays. And the theatre I gave birth is the one I gave birth in with my first son and had my stitch placed so fully done a full circle.

@Jadeypiethank you!! How are you getting on?

@PinkFlamingo888thank you!

@jmrpinkiethank you. How are you getting on with everything?

@Moosey898wishing you all the best. Happy new years to you. Always here xx

Yeah overall it was they still had to press emergency button as he got stuck when cutting him out, but by the time the rest of the doctors ran in he was out. Apparently my skin was tight from my scar tissue from 1st c section. But when they took stitch out my cervix has soften and was prepping for labour!

He’s just too comfortable lol! Tbf with my first born I got a horrendous cold before I went into labour with him xxx

@Gizmo1983 congratulations on the birth of Elizabeth. Sorry to hear it was traumatic.

thank you everyone who wished me luck.

baby Atlas was born this morning at 9:44am weighing a whopping 8lbs xx

Congratulations! Hope you are both doing well x

dubkitten · 31/12/2025 12:12

Eventful morning, came for my appointment at 8.30 and still here 😫

Protein in my urine and high blood pressure so was sent for bloods and repeat urine which was then sent to the lab. Then had to go to Emergency for BP monitoring and a trace on baby. BP was fine, first trace ended up picking up my heart rate so needed to get restarted. Then on the second one - near the end the baby started having a party and heart rate went high so had to stay on it longer.

Just waiting now for the lab results and to speak to the doctors

Merry Christmas everyone. I hope you are all having a fantastic day.

After having a house full of boys for almost 16 years our surprise DAUGHTER arrived on 22/12/25, she did not want to wait for my planned C section and my waters went while I was sleeping. We are completely in love with her and it was the best Christmas present we could have wished for!

wishing everyone safe arrivals of their babies. I forgot just how incredible it is meeting your tiny person. Enjoy 😘 xx

@WanderWalker, huge congratulations on the arrival of your daughter xx

So BP and urine was fine but bloods showed reduced kidney function (which could be the start of BP problems) so back on Friday for repeat tests. See how they go and then they will make a plan - doc said aim is to get me to 39/40 weeks

Hi lovely ladies. Baby Elizabeth arrived today via emergency c section an extremely traumatic day but we are both here and that’s what matters I’ll post my story really soon.. good luck tomorrow @Sunshinemoom cxx

@Gizmo1983 Just had a good cry when I saw your post here. Just overwhelmed with happiness for you. I am always dreadful at keeping up on these threads! Huge congratulations on baby Elizabeth's arrival. So very happy to see this. Sorry it was somewhat fraught and wishing you a safe and as speedy as possible recovery from your section.

All, Biggest congratulations to all who have given birth or are in the process. Sorry I'm so bad at keeping up!! had a consultant appointment on Monday. Baby was head down at 32 week scan but now has gone back to transverse at 34! Due another scan at 36 so will see what's what then but he said i will have to go into hospital if still transverse at 37 because of the risks involved if I go into labour, I was meant to be having a section at 37 weeks because of my immune issues but the consultant has pushed it back to 39 as baby seems to be doing well. As I am allergic to all manor of foods I am praying that I wont end up having to stay in for two weeks prior to section as heaven knows what they will be able to give me to eat!!
