MissFox - Be sure that it is the blues and if you feel any worse or resentment, seek advice
I hope it isn't affecting the bond with your little lady too much. It's nice for you to be able to go somewhere else to unwind though.
Pink - I just wish she'd flip around so things can really make effect with her head on my cervix. Did you manage to pick up the swing and have a nice soak? When I look down on my bump, it looks so square, she must have her legs crossed.
Wunna - I'm just having 6-7 BH's now every few hours, nothing like yesterday
I've probably done something judgementally stupid by inserting 10 EPO
They're only 300mg capsules so 3000mg dosage over a normal 2100mg isn't
that bad... She's been moving erratically today though. Maternal instinct must have set in for you
You're the one giving birth so you do wear the trousers!! They have to respect your needs, as after all, labouring isn't the easiest of all tasks and you may want to be left alone more than you think. Your bump is looking very petite to usual! it's like he's disappearing! Still have the glow though!
I'll only be texting close family, OH may put FB status up. I've been texting my mum over past few days and been on the phone to her. In-laws still have to find out that I don't want visitors for x-amount of time/days, my family already know. It's going to be me and OH only during birth and then DD afterwards. My family know that, but getting it through to in-laws will be hard. I'm even getting taxi's to and from the hospital to keep it more private.
Mdspca - I hope you're not struggling too much, and you receive great help from staff while OH (and family/friends) aren't there. How nice of his friends to buy you a steriliser too! Are you feeling well in yourself? It's great you're able to be on the move, it makes things much easier. Has your OH been the unlucky one stuck with the dirty nappies?
Congratulations on breastfeeding too, it's supposed to be harder after a caesarean due to lack of skin-to-skin straight away.
I rang L&D about my stomach pain as I'm only able to consume water, not eaten since yesterday breakfast and all they said was "oh, it sounds like you have a stomach bug. You can survive over a week without food so keep drinking water" erm, no I don't. 1) I feel well within myself 2) I don't have sickness or diarrhoea. I'm thinking it may be gallstones.
