Ladies that were in the Over 30's Assisted Conception Club for Baby Numero 1 thread

Hi Smurf, at least your in-laws are leaving in March - I thought it was longer!! I have been so curious about hypnobirthing. I think I get the main idea but I have yet to have a patient utilize it. I am excited to read your birth story!

Hey... well i think i'm 32weeks but there seems to be a lot of debate over my EDD date so far i've had 3 different dates which is starting to irritate me... with everything to do with my mum and dad i've not really had the time or the inclinenation to look antenatal classes... plus as i'm not sure whether i'm going natural or having a c-section so i'm not sure its worth me investing in them. And i'm not sure if it might be too late!

I've done a twin induction day at the hospital where i'll be having them and that was really good, so i'm glad i've done that. And at my next scan on tuesday if I find out that i'm looking like having a natural birth i've found some breathing classes that I can go to. And then afterwards i'll probably join the twin groups in my local area to try and find other twin mums so we can share our woes and worries about raising two humans at the same time!

as for your in-laws, don't feel bad at all... i think you've done wonderfully to have them with you all this time, don't think i could live with mine for a day!

Hey how is everyone getting on?

Drsquid - have you had your babies yet?

i'm now on maternity leave and it feels very strange not to have to go to work everyday... even though there is lots to do I feel like i don't know what to do with myself!

hope you are all well x

Hi Everyone- Congrats Pink on starting your mat leave. I can't wait. I have so much to do before it starts- it feels like a lifetime away.

I was just thinking this morning again about what an amazing journey this whole process has been. I hope you all are giving yourselves a massive pat on the back for surviving AC and LTTC- it wasn't easy was it!!?? But we're all going to be MOMs soon. How amazing.

Thank you for being so supportive- the original thread we all were a part of seriously kept me sane. I hope to hear how momy-dom is going for all of you soon.

hey smurf have you decided when you are going to start your maternity leave or are you going to try and work right up until you can? i found the travelling was getting too much for me, people on public transport were nice and were giving me seats, but it was more of having to be at a certain place at a certain time that i was finding difficult. Plus having twins I had a panic attack that i'd go into labour early at my desk or something!!

I can't quite believe i'm here either and they are so tantalisingly close to being a reality... i also found the previous thread extrememly helpful and i definitely think we all need a huge pat on the back for making it this far!

looking forward to hearing about the arrivals!!! x

Hi Girls, well I had my baby on 1st of May at 13:20 by c-section as baby was breech and I had a low lying placenta! My yellow bump was a lovely little boy we have called him Raife Jensen and he is just so amazing and such a good contented baby, cannot believe my luck! Definitely happy with my little miracle! Hope you ladies are all well!? Looking forward to more updates xxxx

Congratulations mrs H, I gave birth also by c-section on 22march to Ana and Ewan, so babas are 6 weeks old. It's crazy busy so I don't get on here much anymore. Glad your doing well. X

Yes Pink I remember when you had those 2 cutie pies!! What about everyone else? I am sure the rest of us have most likely had our babies! Must be hectic with 2 it's bad enough with one, but we have been very lucky as he is such a contented baby (for now) xxx
