Aww hes perfect Claire! I'm so happy to hear all went well and you can put the worries behind you. Enjoy your new addition. :flower:
 
Congratulations Claire!!

As for me, I have 11 days until my due date! No real signs of anything. Occasional period type pains, lots of irregular BH, and a lot of discharge but nothing that signals labour starting anytime soon. On one hand I'm ready for him to be here, and on the other in terrified lol!

Also had a really bad day today. Lost my old phone which had all of my pictures and videos of my DD on. From the moment she was placed on my chest, to her first Xmas and first steps. Everything up until she was 2. Have turned the house upside down with no luck. I'm heartbroken and have spent most of the day in tears. How can I ever explain to her she has no memories :( it's devastating me to be honest!x
 
Missr- so sorry about your pictures. I know exactly what that feels like sadly :(. After I had my first DS I had all of his photos and videos from birth on my laptop. Then bam my laptop harddrive screwed up and broke. I contacted every person I could to recover the files and nobody could recover anything. I balled my eyes out for the longest time. Sending you huge :hugs:
 
I know this might sound really ungrateful. I don't mean it to, I want nothing more than being pregnant so I get my special second baby. However I am so sick and fed up, the pain is sometimes unbearable, I can't function or look after my wee girl. I plan on this being my last so know I'll miss this, but also can't cope....

There are days when I feel exactly like this. Other days, like today, are a bit better. But you're not the only one hun
 
Congratulations Claire. Glad you are both well hope your recovery is fast :-D
 
Congrats claire!

Im not sure if you guys have heard of drop box but its free and you can have it automatically load pics there so then if anything ever oes happen to your device, they are backed up elsewhere.

AFM - i lost my mucus plug!! Woot!! No bloody show but still a step in the right direction? But i know without the blood it likely means labour is still a ways off right??
 
Mississippi - is one drive private? Or do others have access to your photos...?

Also congrats on the plug loss, wish I had something going on over here. No plug loss, no nothing.. blegh

:hugs: pregnancy can be so tough, venting is good for you. Go easy on yourself and I hope your LO arrives soon for you :hugs:

That's awful, I hope it turns up :hugs: I'd be devastated too

Woohoo! Def a good sign, could be anytime or a long time -lol so annoying huh!? I lost it with my first and then waters went within a few hours, never lost it with the others at all :wacko: This one I have had teeny tiny mucous bits (delightful! TMI) but nothing worth getting excited about:nope: Sounds like your body is gearing up and prepping nicely!!:thumbup:

I am 38!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! weeks today:happydance::happydance: I have an OB appt at 11am (currently 8.30am) and seeing at it is school holidays it will be me plus three going, will see how how the old blood pressure fairs with my tag alongs haha!!

Its private but you can email access to an album to someone if you wanted

Sorry i lied its called drop box lol pregnancy brain
 
Claire you & baby look great! Congrats xx

Tink I'm in the same boat as you are 38 weeks tomorrow, no sign of anything not even BH's.

MissR sorry to hear about your photos. Have faith that it shows up miraculously. Fx for you.

Allop all the best with your OB appt!

Mississippi congrats on losing the mp, 1 step forward!

Not much happening here, just bd'ing to try to get something going. Got the ball blown up, DH bought me a Spectra S2 breast pump new off ebay today. We're all set, baby can come annny time now!
 
Congrats claire hun xxx

I agree about using Dropbox it's really good. MissR I hope your phone turns up.

One bump it's ok to vent hun I'm the same. It's horrid feeling so rotten. We're near the finishing line though x

Mississipi that sounds promising xx

Aliop good luck with the appointment!

I've been bouncing ony ball and hoping for the best lol no plug or anything but lots of tightening and pressure x
 
Tally, I am doing the same, bouncing away and getting lots of tightening and pressure. Let's hope it works for us both!

2have4kids, I have the Spectra pump too, it is a good one! I have no enthusiasm to BD lol

Appointment went well, baby head down and lower than last week :thumbup: slightly posterior still but in the grand scheme of things I couldn't care less about being posterior haha! My only concern is my blood pressure is high, have to go in for NST on Wednesday at the hospital but apart from that OB said 'sex, sex and then some more sex followed by bouncing and squats' haha! Bounce and squat I can do, sex nope! :haha:
 
My MW told me to have sex too, there's no chance :haha: I'm crazy swollen down there! Have you tried to express some colostrum? That can help to induce labour :) I've got to collect some for Oliver, just in case his blood sugars are low, but I won't be doing it until I reach 37wks, just in case. I practiced the other day & got 0.3ml in a quick session. I don't think I was at it long enough to encourage any contractions though xx
