2015 October Owls! | The chicks are hatching! *16 boys & 8 girls so far!*

[Charmed86]

GP - You take as much time as you need!! I'm so glad to hear you're being discharged. Hospitals are the worst. Have they said how long Luci will need to stay in?

I've caught a stupid cold from my Mum. Ugh. She is the worst for keeping germs to herself. We had to stay with her & her BF for 3wk while work was being done on the house. We finally had enough & moved out, 2 days too late. I'd already got sick. Hmph. Our kitchen isn't quite fully functional yet.. We have an oven & sink. No fridge etc. and the lounge is barren. But it's so nice to be home!!

Was getting worried about Oliver's movements today, but he's just started wriggling about! I hate that he doesn't seem to have a set routine for his activity & he can easily sleep for over 2hrs.

We have no sofa, so I'm in bed, wrapped up in my big jumper & surrounded by pillows. Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend! xx

Congrats, DarkStar! They're super cute!

Ladies we need a thread title update! Bring on the babies

Sorry, I've been kind of busy, and haven't updated the thread title.

I'm being discharged today. Can't wait to be in my own bed and get some real sleep! I just can't function in the hospital. Gonna miss being a short walk from my sweet girl, but I'll visit often.

Ginger you get yourself some rest! The update can wait

Ginger- yay for getting out of the hospital. Hopefully luci will join you soon

Darkstar- they are too cute. Are they identical? The first picture you shared I wasn't sure, but these 2nd picture they definitely look identical. .

GP - glad you're getting to go home, and hope you get some rest & Luci joins you soon

Made it to 37 weeks! 1 week today they go on call for my home birth.... lo can be born then thanks very much lol x

 

[Charmed86]

I had a crazy night! Went in to be monitored again for reduced movements & while we're there, Oliver goes crazy & we end up with the opposite problem! The MW then starts telling us worst case scenario, the consultant might want to deliver tonight, no food in case I need steroids etc. hubby freaks out completely & I end up calling him down?! So much for support for me! Sigh. They finally let me go home at 1am, after filling me with fluids. It was decided that I was probably dehydrated because of this damn cold I caught from my Mum. Ugh. I read my notes before going to bed & they made a comment about having fetal macrosomia, which was not mentioned to me by my diabetic consultant, so not sure why it's in my notes today?? I've got to go back in this morning for another CTG. because this was my 3rd trip in for reduced movements, they've now set an induction for the 30th September. I'm terrified of being induced.

Had a rotten night's sleep, guess I ought to get up & go in for more monitoring. Fingers crossed Oliver is ok & we're not there long! x

 

[WW1]

Sounds scary, Charmed but at least they're keeping a close eye on you. I hope Oliver's movements have returned to normal today x

 

[Willow01]

Good luck today Charmed I hope everything is ok

 

[tallybee]

Gosh that sounds scary Charmed xxx

 

[MissR]

Omg!! I've not been on in a couple of days and just had to read through everything!

Wow! Cannot believe all these babies have been born congratulations to you all!! So glad to hear they have all arrived safely.

As for me, been having some painful BH and had a really dodgy belly last night which I don't know means anything. I have a feeling I'm going over with him xxx

 

[startd]

I hope today is a better day for you Charmed!
MissR - I hope your belly feels more comfortable soon

I've had quite an increase in Braxton Hicks contractions in the last few days. At least it feels like my body and baby are trying to work out what to do!

Congrats Darkstar, what beautiful boys.
GP glad you got home, hoping Luci isn't long to follow.
Charmed, hope today's hospital trip was a success.

 

[Rainstorm]
