Awww. Gorgeous GP!

I'm now cautiously home and baby has stayed put (for now). Still some bleeding and steroids mean my blood sugars are screwy but otherwise they are happy with baby. Cervix is closed. They basically said if it is preterm labour then everything has been done to prepare baby and they're not worried. So I've got to take it easy, monitor baby and go back if there's any new blood / contractions etc. 33 weeks tomorrow so if this little one cooks for at least 4 more weeks I'll be very happy!
 
Awww Ginger, Luci is seriously gorgeous :cloud9:

I have my consultant appointment in a couple of hours. I am nervous as it's all new to me but confident that my body can still birth naturally so will be declining any offer of hospital etc. OH has managed to get time off to come with me, and he's fully supportive. He has really started growing into his Daddy role, I'm proud of him! I had been a bit worried before as he seemed lost with it all but I think it's all got real for him and he's dealing much better :)
 
GP she is so gorgeous :flower:

WWI - hope all stays well and you get to bake for a little longer :hugs:

Tally - good for you for sticking your ground on your home birth

3Boys - hope all went okay and you are now holding your baby in your arms :hugs:
 
Been to see the consultant, she was actually lovely! She sees no problems for me home birthing and actually commented that she didn't know quite why I had been referred to her lol. Feeling SO MUCH better :D
 
I've definitely lost my plug!
:happydance::happydance::happydance::happydance::happydance:

This is the only place I can tell where people will actually be excited and not grossed out.
 
Thanks Twag, I forgot 37 weeks was full term!
Oooh hope that it won't be long.dark star.
Tally that's good news x
 
Baby Nathan was born yesterday 10 th September at 20.02 after a long induction and difficult labour. Babies neck was flexed meaning he was coming ear first in beginning. His heart rate kept dipping with each contraction. Talk of c section all day but consultant really wanted to avoid one with having 6 kids before. At 9cm his heart rate dropped to 50 and the room was chaos with people trying to get him out. Absolutely terrifying. I eventually got him out and it was discovered he had a couple of true knots in his cord. I'm really blessed he wasn't stillborn.
 
Being admitted to the hospital with a bp of 176/123. OB sayd Emergency c section is likely.

Sounds like what happened to me. Are they putting you on magnesium sulfate? Definitely ask for a fan for your room. It will set you on fire. Keep us updated, hon.
 
3boys, I had an awful experience with my first, I'm just so glad he is here safe. I am getting really anxious about anything being wrong in there that I don't know about, can't wait for him to arrive, hopefully safe and sound. Hope you are recovering well sounds like a real ordeal x

Darkstar as long as you all make it safe and sound, honestly not worth any risks at all. Good luck hope all goes well no matter how they arrive xx
 
Congratulations 3boys! What an ordeal. I'm so thankful you are both ok after that. I can't imagine how you must be feeling right now. xxx

DarkStar, really hope you're ok! Whatever happens is best for your little ones & you've done amazingly well to keep them cooking for as long as you have! Good luck xxx

I feel like my 'problems' pale in comparison really. It's starting to get very real now you ladies are having your babies!! I hope everyone is healing well & all babies are happy & healthy. Hugs xxx
