April ladies ...were having our babies THIS month :)

[Qmama79]

3.50am fr me now; I'm either coming down with stomach flu or its the very beginning of labour. I'm not getting my hopes up. It's April 1 (my due date) & if baby got sense of humour, he'll probably set me up fr false labour!

My 3.5yr old is so excited about baby brother. I'm keeping him involved & he just really wants to meet baby brother (because baby brother will give him a D-Trux ...). It'll be hard, but I'm hoping he'll cope well!

I agree the jealousy thing is very much personality related. When pregnant with 2nd baby I had no worries at all, my 1st is a very calm and laid back, caring little boy. He was thrilled when his brother arrived, there wasn't an ounce of jealousy and he wanted to be involved with everything. His brother however I have serious worries lol, he is such a hot head, very much a Mamas boy and knows what he wants! They have been brought up exactly the same but he is definitely in charge when it comes to him and his big brother lol. I love his strong and determined personality but don't know how its going to go when his sister arrives haha. He loves babies though so it could go either way but I'm going to utilise feeding etc to have him sat at other side having snuggles and storytime which he will love. No signs here and not expecting there to be until at least 40+9 when the boys both decided they were ready lol.

Hubby is away on a stag do for the next 2 nights 3hrs drive away, I packed my hospital bag last night so little miss has no reason to surprise us and catch us out not being ready lol.

Sorry to those ladies who aren't well and hope you get better soon...

I'm at work, working right up and getting tired and uncomfortable now . I am alone in the office Friday afternoons which I am so thankful for today as just don't have the energy to make conversation or acknowledge anyone, how mean does that sound xx

Misscalais- I do get quite a bit of it! Yesterday around 6:30pm for me, I was sure I was going into labor. I got ridiculously hot, had regular, painful contractions and just like with my son- they never got closer than 4 minutes apart. So far today my contractions are ten minutes apart and bearable but I'm afraid this may mean I'm going to be stuck in prodromal labor again. If it gets closer together and rough like yesterday I will be going in so that they can establish early on that the same thing is happening this time. I am really frustrated and exhausted.

Is anyone else that due this month a first time mom? Starting to feel a bit nervous as no experience to look back on.

Many women describe true contraction as period pain vs the tightening of the uterus like BH!

 

[emma4g63]

Mucus plug may b startin to make a appearemce altho means nothun for labour espec early

Spent last night at the hospital. I was having contractions and generally feeling like something was very different. So, I went. Straight from work and made my husband go over there to. He showed up with my gigantic pillow and my rolling suitcase. Talking about how he blanked on which door to go into. We left an hour later. I feel dumb and I'm not going back until my water breaks or I can't function with the contractions.

It's interesting to see that I'm the only tram yellow on the front page so far. I'm looking forward to finding out if if turns blue or pink.

I'm too much of a control freak so couldn't wait to find out. Plus I needed to be organised as DH does great but there's only so much he can do being a wheelchair user. Meant I could get the nursery finished over the new year break etc.

I can see why people wait for the surprise too.

Are you hoping for either team?

I'm not particularly hoping for one or the other but, if I absolutely had to guess, I'd edge towards girl. I thought that with my others though and was wrong. We actually tried to find out at our 20 week scan this time but the baby was being a monkey and was in an awkward position. I'm more than happy with another surprise though.

 

[Ganton]

Good luck to those who are starting to get signs of labour. For those that feel ready to have their babies, I hope it turns into the real thing for you.

I decided to finally sort my hospital bag this afternoon, so feeling a little more organised now but hoping for at least another couple of weeks before this one makes an appearance. I'm also hoping not to go overdue though.

 

[Powell130]

I'm hoping to go over due! Just found out we aren't going to be able to close on the house on the 8th like scheduled so now it's going to be April 11th at the earliest but more likely to be closer to the 15th. It's frustrating it keeps getting pushed closer and closer to my due date

 

[m0mmyCool]

Happy April everyone. I really wanted to pull an April fools prank on everyone about being in labor but in the end I didn't have the heart lol.

I hope it doesn't get pushed back any further and that your baby stays put until you're all settled in. Are you moving far?

 

[Powell130]

Luckily it's only about a 25 minute move and once we close the guys at hubs' work are going to move everything so I won't have to do anything. Sucks having to wait longer tho. I'm really hoping to get in the new house before baby gets here
