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

Forums New posts
I had my 37 week appt moved to yesterday because of bad headaches that randomly started. BP was higher than my normal but not high enough they are concerned. My doc wants me to keep them in the loop if they don't go away and such. My next appt is April 14th.

I can't believe I will be 37 weeks tomorrow! I really hope he comes out early. My feet swelling is super annoying and I miss wearing my wedding ring. Overall I am feeling ok.

Baby boy is moving around A LOT! It's intensified a lot lately. I can't wait to meet him and hold him. I am a little scared about the delivery because I am a big baby. :haha: It will be worth it.

Hope everyone is doing well and feeling well. We are so close!! :hugs:
 
Oh girls, these April babies are sure giving their mummas a hard time. I hope that it won't be much longer for everyone.
I had a series of constant BH last night that were slightly painful, thought for sure it would turn into something seems they were coming every 5 or so minutes.. had a shower and they fizzled out. Had to poop twice during the night and woke feeling yuck.
DH is working 2 hours away today, where he will be there isn't much phone reception and that annoys me so much. Im trying to remind myself im only 2 days over, but knowing i could possibly have to go another 8 days is so frustrating.

My Facebook timehop came up in Feb 2yrs ago the day before I had my 2nd and my status was about waking up feeling like I'd been out drinking until 4am. Maybe its a sign! Fingers crossed for you xx
 
My DH works about 45-1 hour out of town but it could take him 2 hours to get back if he's in the field. I worry about my water breaking at work and him missing the birth. It's a scary thought. Is DH back home at night or is he gone for a while?

I hope you can feel better and get that baby out! :hugs: I have tightening from time to time but no actual BH (unless it's the tightening). I hope those BH cool it until it's actually baby time. :hugs:
 
Wow a couple days away and I've missed loads. Sounds like we'll be hearing of some more April babies arriving soon. Exciting times.

Exhausted here. Sleep been poor the last couple of nights and I've had some really sharp pains. Just random ones, here and there but they don't half hurt and take my breath away. Just 3 more days to work then I'm going to flop in a heap.
Hubby's PA that's on shift today kindly blitzed the ironing, whilst I was at work and thought I would need to do at the weekend, so that's a relief.

My cats won't leave my side, I wonder if they know something. It's like they've got very protective.
 
Nothing really to report from my hospital trip. I'm still 1CM but now 50% effaced (was long and thick Thursday at my appt) so my doc said that the pain and stuff was probably coming from my hips spreading and my cervix changing a little. Said to keep an eye on contractions and the pain and if it happens again or contractions start becoming regular to come back to labor and delivery. I was on the monitors for a little over an hour and had 4 small contractions so not much happening

Tightenings are BH
 
Christie2011- That definitely sounds similar to what I am dealing with. Glad to know that I'm not the only one! Hopefully your twins give you an easier time :hugs:
-----------------------------
hal423- I have tried everything that I am comfortable with trying. I am considering just relaxing for the next nine days and not worrying so much. Sex feels terrible, the breast pump makes the contractions worse but there is no progress, walking makes me even more tired and the list goes on '>.<

I feel like I should just rest and spend these last days focused on my son. Maybe I will get lucky and she will come but I don't want to feel disappointed when she doesn't
 
Sorry it's happening again SweetTart! I agree, you should just rest and enjoy your son. If she comes on her own that's a bonus! An if not, atleast you know you'll meet your baby girl in 9 days! Woo!

I was wondering where she is? Is she alright?

Sweet Tart, labor dust to you!!

I hope to remain pregnant until 40-41 weeks so my cracked rib can heal! :cry:
 
Thank you girls!
My husband and I have been talking about it and I am definitely just trying to be positive from this point. :) Things could be worse! At least she is healthy and a wonderful size.
 
Quinn Theo Mellor was born April 04 at 9am. He's 52cm, weighs 3.372kg. He's adorable! Finley's very happy to be a big brother! More details later!

Congrats qmama! He's adorable!

Sweettart I hope you get some nice R&R tonight!
 
Qmama- He is soooooo cute! A huge congratulations!
--------------------------------
Hal- Thank you :hugs: definitely the plan. Cuddling up with some burritos and KDrama
 
Oh qmama he's so handsome!!!

Marumi I think we are the only ones hoping to make it to our EDD :haha: I wanna get moved into our new house before Jax gets here. Hopefully we close on the 11th (it's already been delayed twice!) Because I realllllly don't wanna be moving and trying to get the main things unpacked and settled with a newborn. And trying to soak up as much time with #1 before he's a big brother!! I'm still having mixed feelings/emotions about him not being our only child :cry:
 
Qmama-he is absolutely perfect!!!

So they told me I was dehydrated and though that can contribute to palpitations, it really shouldn't be to the extent that it is. They're going to try to get me into see a cardiologist but don't think its going to be very successful. So they told me if it happens again, I need to go to the ER. And they told me that the ER would probably just send me straight to labor and delivery. Idk if they would induce me or just monitor me, but the palpitations have been happening at least every few days, so I expect I'll be heading to the ER in the next few days here. In the meantime, it's tons of water for me.

Little man is looking good though! Plenty of amniotic fluid and whatnot, so he's doing great!
 
Josephine Grace was born at 00:47 on 6th April, 8lb 6oz.

Forceps again in the end as she was facing the wrong way around and wouldn't budge but we are both fine.

I'll get a pic a bit later when I am up and about. :)
