Any Scottish April 2013 babies out there??

[arlene]

Hi girls. I had a crap sleep last night too. John had to wake me about half three cos I was crying in my sleep after a weird dream. Then I woke with another one about half five and couldn't get a picture out my head. Fortunately J's alarm went off 15 mins later so I got to snuggle and cry with him for a bit, then pulled the dog in beside me for cuddles when he got up! Worked out I'm only sleeping 2-3 hrs at a time max so no wonder I'm puggled!

Supposed to have my last antenatal class with Christine today but didn't really see the point in going. It's the bf class and I know I have no plans to do it. Still took the afternoon off work though! Lol. We have someone coming to view our flat tomorrow so need to do some housework anyway.

Think we're gonna go to my mum's for tea tomorrow night. Then it's the last game of the regular season at hockey on sunday so could be a tense match!!! Basically it'll decide who we face in the playoff quarter finals and if it's a local team, next weekend will be massive!! Just hoping the excitement doesn't start anything! Lol.

Can't believe you guys are getting to meet your babas so soon! Doesn't seem like that long ago we were all moaning about ms!! Xx

Sounds like you had a horrible night I have been waking roughly every 45 mins to an hour to change sides (sore pelvis) for the past 15 weeks so can totally empathise with the disturbed sleep feeling! I think I'm getting used to it now though, which will be handy when baby arrives!

The way things are going for me now, I bet you meet your baby before I meet mine

I've got nothing much on this weekend. Stayin at my parents tonight as Ryan's gona be working late so it'll be nice to have company and not be around my bloody cousin. Lol.

We're going out for Ryan's nephew liam's bday tomorrow afternoon. It's gona be weird cos he's 23 ( I think) but he's hardly been in contact with ryans family since he was about 3yo. So this is the first time Ryan's seen him in 20 years. It's a shame. It's all because his mum stopped Ryan's mum seeing him back then and Ryan's brother never wanted a child- his gf tricked him into it so hes had nothing to do with him. The end result has been that they've had to wait for the nephew to make contact himself. Its really sad. So I guess it's a big day for us tomorrow since our baby and Liam will be cousins.

 

[lj2245]

Messy situation eh? At least he's in contact now though and you can all get to know him I hope you enjoy the party and it's not too much for you Maybe have a wee glass of wine, see if you can relax enough to get things moving hehe

 

[bbymc]

Lol. I fancy a baileys. Random eh? Lol.

I hope it goes well at lunch tomorrow. It's only gona be Ryan, me, Liam and Ryan's mum. But that'll prob be quite full on for Liam as it is. I hope he wants a relationship with us cos Liam will be this baby's only cousin on Ryan's side.

 

[Kaybee]

No, she never said about baby weight. Just that he's chunky he is also not engaged yet just 'at brim'.

Me and Kaiden have not long woken from a wee nap on the sofa. I was really needing it.

That will be good getting the nursery cracked on with Enjoy your day with Shaun tomorrow. How typical that your nipples have started leaking after you mentioning it.

Aww Arlene you're having a crap time with the crazy dreams.

Emma that will be a bit weird. Nice that he has got in touch now though.

I think Dave is working all weekend so it will just be me and Kaiden. Dave going to drop Duke off at my mums tomorrow as he is staying there while I'm in hospital.

 

[lj2245]

It's all so exciting! I can't believe we are starting to have our babies already. It really does seem like last week we were all worried about miscarriage and having our 12 and 20 week scans!

 

[lj2245]

Lol. I fancy a baileys. Random eh? Lol.

I hope it goes well at lunch tomorrow. It's only gona be Ryan, me, Liam and Ryan's mum. But that'll prob be quite full on for Liam as it is. I hope he wants a relationship with us cos Liam will be this baby's only cousin on Ryan's side.

Ahh maybe no wine then. I dunno why but I assumed it was a party! Lol. A lunch will be nice and you can always use the pregnancy as an excuse if it's very awkward and you want to leave lol!

 

[bbymc]

yeah. We won't stay long. I can't sit at a table very long these days.

I can't believe we're all starting to have our babies either. Its so exciting. I remember thinking it was exciting that i could count down the weeks in single figures. Won't be long til I'm counting down the days in single figures!

how you feelin about your section Karen?

I can totally understand you wanting Stephen around if you don't really know his dad. It'll be awesome once its done though. Its a big job!

You're really having a rubbish time with dreams arelene! I hope you get some better nights sleep before baby comes! x

duno why that posted twice. Duno how to fix it either lol. Sorry x

 

[Cherrybump]

Aww Arlene sorry to hear you had a crappy sleep. lol You didnt miss much today there was only 4 of us and Anne. I was throwing alot of answers out there (well said i watched the breastfeeding dvds) even had to use toy baby and showed how to position baby for breast feeding lol we got a little drink and a biscuit today to lol. She showed us some cute pictures of baby and how to tell if their face is showing they are hungry, not bother, and something else lol.

Seems so unreal that sometime in the next 4 weeks im going to have this little baby girl in my arms. Like you've all said wasnt that long ago we were worring about miscarriages and bleeding etc lol.

Ive not bounced on my ball in 2 days now feeling little demotivated to use it to lol

 

[Kaybee]

Haha I remember the doll from my BF workshop.

I am feeling slightly nervous about the ELCS but all the medical people and MW people I have spoken too have said how totally different a planned section is to an emergency one. Its much more relaxed so am ok about it just now....prob wont sleep on sunday night! Really looking forward to meeting him and getting my body back.

I remember with kaiden looking forward to being able to sleep on my front but I still couldnt for weeks cause my boobs

 

[bbymc]

Aw damn! I never thought of my boobs! I've been lookin forward to sleeping on my front for weeks! Lol x

 

[Cherrybump]

Lol i love sleeping on my front to.

Not sure how much sleep we'll get once little ones are here lol xx

 

[Kaybee]

Sorry to burst your bubble Maybe your's will be fine.

Is it bed time yet? Hoping we all get a good sleep.

 

[bbymc]

I've got such a headache tonight! Think I need my bed!!

 

[lj2245]

I've been in bed since 7:30 lol

 

[arlene]

Think I'm gonna go to bed soon too. We need to be up early-ish tomorrow. We have someone coming to view our flat at 10am so need to put the dogs out to the car, wash the laminate floors, hoover and dust. We're getting a fair few viewings, just no one is taking it any further!!

Hope we all get a decent night's sleep tonight!! Xx

 

[bbymc]

well i had a horrendous sleep again. So exhausted now. No idea how I'll get thru the day!

I've had sore bits for a few weeks and i thought it was just my clothes rubbing or somethin as Ryan told me there was nothin to see. I managed to find a decent mirror and look myself last night and one side is quite clearly swollen I'm thinking its pressure from baby but i duno. All i can say is that its very sore! I'm a bit scared of when i go into labour now cos if its sore for me to have clothes against it, its gona hurt like hell when the midwife checks my cervix and all that! I've been putting sudocrem on it for weeks thinking it must be chapped skin lol.

Aside from my discovery, my hip and pelvis are killin me today! I think I'll be glad to get back to bed later tonight lol.

My mum was saying she thinks my bump has dropped a bit. I don't see or feel it but i hope she's right! I hope something's progressed for my MW appt on Monday lol x
