Congratulations Laura!

Sorry you had a rubbish appointment Gem, seems to be a bad day for them. A friend of mine has just been told at 32 weeks that her baby seems to have stopped growing and to expect delivery at 34 weeks.

Thanks for the update Alida, good luck Reeds!

good luck reeds! can't wait to see pictures of baby gunner

went to dr today and besides being a very well behaved little girl, i am sitting at 1 cm/70%/-2 which is great! looking at going in on friday april 15 instead of thursday the 14th for softening, which she'll double check next wednesday. we also talked about possible c-section times as i just wanted to know the stopping points. (such as she won't let me push more tha 3 hours, if i stop dialating once induced, ect).
i'm really not stubborn about how she comes out, i just want her out and healthy. no 8 lb baby yet (thank god). also took my strep b and ladies it's not as bad as it sounds, totally no big thing. you touch your bum more when wiping from a poo than the dr does with the swab. not exactly fun, but no big thing considering what we're all going to endure very very soon.

Sandi text me earlier and they had started the induction. They started the Cervidil to soften her cervix and started her IV. She was 1-2cm dilated. she was having some pretty painful back labor so she was contemplating the Epidural.

Okay so she just Text me again...
She is 3cm dilated and they are starting the pitocin! They did the cervidil earlier to get her cervix soft first. Still NO Epidural she is one tough Cookie!

[MissFox]

Thanks for the update!

Today has been wonderful! I layed around the house untli 12:30 and my bestie took me out for lunch. Then we spent a few hours at her house just hanging out and chatting. It was the first day in a long time that I felt good and was able to enjoy the day. I didn't do too much walking around so my hips aren't killing me (except for the new grinding when I lift my leg for a step). It's just been great! I haven't been this relaxed in a long long time. I think I'll keep it up and finsih a movie I started this morning!

 

[bernina]

Sounds like a wonderful day MissFox, so glad you were able to relax with your friend, much deserved.

 

[MissFox]

Thanks it was amazing. Even spent the morning with DH and both of us were in good moods (lol rare these days).
Plus he shaved (trimmed really) and I'm finding him all extra sexy lol Just wish he was feeling better!

congrats laura!
sorry to hear they are messing u around gem.

had a very good day yesterday OH got all the doors painted upstairs and i washed down the walls for painting. tidied up the kitchen and breakfast room. my washing machine was playing up it wasnt empting the water but OH fixed it bless him. we just had a laugh yesterday so it was good.

had a rubbish night sleep last nite kept waking up to turn over and as i tried to move my whole body felt like a dead weight and my pelvic bone bloody killed i moaned a few times as i turned OH thought it was the start lol bless him. woke up and still got the pressure in my pelvis but not so bad mainly when i first get up from sitting.

got a scan today to see how poppie is growing im a bit nervous as she did have a bit of a big belly i hope that it hasnt grown too big bless her and the bones are not too big but we will see.

hope everyone is ok.

 

[CottlestonPie]

Good luck with the scan!
Heehee bless your OH... Mine keeps doing the same. Water retention in my legs has started affecting my knees and they seize up in thenight... It's so painful and every time I try to roll over I have to do it in stages and apparently I moan/grunt/breathe funny when I do it, and DF has to ask every time if it's contractions.

He's been convinced from day 1 that Tobys going to come on the 30th which is tomorrow. Fingers crossed!!
Actually I have my 1st physio appointment for last months car accident at 9am tomorrow... Maybe that'll trigger something...

[CottlestonPie]

Ooh I'm a little jealous, I want my hair cut!

I'm going to be extra lazy and go back to bed for an hour. Then it's washing and ironing til I wear myself out!

 

[babybefore30]

Morning ladies,

Hope everyone is okay I have a midwife appointment today, I am getting a lot of pressure at the bottom of my bump so am hoping it is because baby has dropped down again, think I am going to be brave and get my bikini line and legs waxed done today I was meant to do it the other week but kept putting it off.

Weather is a bit poo here but have stripped our bed and as trying to get into a routine with things for when baby comes so at least I know when things need to be done.

xx

 

[Tasha360]
