19th October Ladies ... **5 Births Already**

[x-TyMa-x]

deffo! Will also be nice for you to spend some alone time with the baby too when she comes along xx

Im back to not sleeping again, not that ive slept great at all through this pregnancy but im waking everynight around 1.30am -3.00am!!!

 

[katerdid]

EEEEK! Where are the cramps when you feel them? I've been feeling a lot of AF kind of crampy lately also and started to worry a bit.....

Glad you have the steroids and everything taken care of...but he would still be in NICU, right? I am both excited and nervous for you! I want your little guy to be all healthy and ready for the world but to stay in there until we say so! You must wait until october, william!

They are kinna like AF cramps, way down in my hips and lower back too. They get really painful right before I start getting contractions.
Yeah, he'd be in the NICU. Dunno how long really, it just depends on how developed he's gotten. Some times they are in there for a couple days, sometimes a month. But I've been looking it up, and he's got a waay better chance now, then he did at 30 wks when all this nonsense started.

Yay mat leave Victoria!! Good luck with your growth scan! Lucky you
Yes, have some fun with your child-free time, Sam!

 

[sam#3]

I think im going to be sleeping (or at least relaxing) and making the most of it!

I seriously cant wait! I love them all dearly but 6 weeks of them 24/7 has taken its toll!!!!!!!!

BabyDeacon- WOW, thats early to stop working! How lucky. Will you get bored?

I wish I could stop working. I work MORE now that im gearing up to leave, and still will be working up until probably october 10th. Im tired of it! Then again, we only get like 6-8 weeks off after baby is born total. I dont know about this year stuff!

Sam- for 3 hours you can pretend the new baby is your first again and nap when it does! how nice. I may be a tad spoiled, my daughter will be in school every day, all day. So really, this is going to be just like my first baby all over again! Until I need to pack the baby up every morning in the cold winter and every afternoon to go pick my daughter up from school......Hope it doesn't mess with a feeding or nap time !

Mummy- I do NOT sleep at all anymore either. This pregnancy has been really bad for sleep. Im always awake. Then im grouchy and keep waking OH up so he's not sleeping well either. Lol.

Washing all my baby things today! I love getting organized. Im usually not one for cleaning and scrubbing and organizing but this nesting stuff rocks! Too bad I can't refrain from nesting ALL day before having to go work 8 hours tonight Im exhausted before work. Sucks!

 

[x-TyMa-x]

Oooo the nesting! haha i had terrible nesting with Tyler!

Tonite i feel like a right fat frump
Im huge and feeling it
Im super uncomfortable
Im achey
Im shattered
And im feeling like my bump is really tight n stretched and it about to burst at any second

....... incase uve not noticed ... im also feeling sorry for myself haah!!

 

[nypage1981]

I get like that all the time mummy. Some days are horrible and uncomfortable and I want to remove the bump and give it to my OH to take care of!

 

[x-TyMa-x]

That's it!! Grrr it's a right pain literally lol.

My lower back is really painful too like achey!!! So am slobbing it on the sofa!

 

[x-TyMa-x]

----------------------------------------------------------------

update today:
pains lasted 2.5 hours within the 2.5 hours i had 6 that was that painfull i was in tears!
the pains got so servre i went into labor ward and was monitered,
they were stron braxton hicks/ mild contractions...
they said it baby moved down and ligiment pains
the Dr's done an internal and my cervix is closed i have a cone shapped mark on my cervix that if i were to have sexy time' it may cause spotting.. so not to be worried if it happen give it a couple of hours if it sont stop then call or if its more that spotting then call them
sexy time i wish!!!
and jeeze if they were strong braxton hick, mild crontraction... hahaha!!! oh jeeze! i think it was more painfull pschologically as i was scared as it not time for him to come

the bad point waiting an hour to be seen....
good points MW was super informative really relaxing able to have a laugh with (ryan wouldnt stop moving and she was saying ooh we have a wriggler,, didnt need to see on the moniter he was kciking and the whole of my tummy/bump was moving!!
room was SUPER clean and she was with me ALL of the time!

i was home by 2 am and my hubby was with me all of the time being so supportive! he even got up at 5:45 and has gone to work, being up from 5:30 the night before!

 

[x-TyMa-x]

Glad all is ok victoria xxx

 

[sam#3]

glad everything is ok and you had a good experience at the hospital - bubs just needs to stay put for 3 weeks to gain all that lovely chub

How are you feeling today? After my scare last tues i felt exhausted on the wed... it really zonked me!!

 

[BabyDeacon]

im feeling ok today not so hungry tho..
think it was more painfull cause phcyolgically i knew he wasnt ready so it being scary the pain increases...
i got my growth scan on friday cannot wait to see him again on a screen will do!! hes staying in for at least 22 days!!! (37 weeks)

 

[x-TyMa-x]

sam - If baby was to be born at 37weeks would they need to be put into SCBU at all or would they be ok, I kno its classed as full term but i was just wondering if they would still need any care etc ..... as i was planning on trying all the labour inducing techinques etc from around that time but obvs wouldnt want my little one to suffer being born early

 

[BabyDeacon]

my friend said that when she was in a baby was born at 34 weeks and baby was ok no need for scbu and allowed home a day later!!! i would assume this is rare!
but 37 weeks bubba is cooked, and shouldnt need any help

 

[sam#3]

37 weeks is fine no help would be needed as like victoria said by then they are fully cooked
anytime from 37-42 weeks is when they are 'due'

im going to get on the rl capsules and epo up the foof from then too!

 

[x-TyMa-x]

Good Good thats good to know then xx Im hoping my little one makes her appearance around 37weeks then haha!! Be lovely to have her naturally without the need for induction

 

[sam#3]

yer id love to have cookie at 37.... but i went to 42 with harry so im worried im in oct for the long haul!!

when i hit 37 weeks im going to inflate the pool and build her crib and get set up for her to let her know im ready!!!!

 

[x-TyMa-x]

same hun i was 41+6 with Tyler before they induced me ..... really want to avoid that this time.

Yes thats a good plan, im going to write a little "Eviction notice" and shove it up my bits hahah!! LOL

No it would be nice ........... 28th sept girlies thats the big day! x

any news on kait? I'm at work so I can't check facebook :S

I went and bought a big--no pop stay put exercise ball. brought it to work with me and am being laughed at, but my back and....lady parts feel a lot better.

over the weekend i've been feeling...really..heavy down there. normal i'm assuming. no pain or anything. anyways the counter pressure from the ball is nice
