Monday afternoon. I have to go back like every week now I think untill the baby is born.
I feel like telling them where to stick the appointments though because its always a waste of time!
My mum is off work all next week though so she'll probably take me shopping afterwards to cheer me up :p
 
Don't worry Jen, I definitely will be one of the last. I'm not even full-term yet!
 
Well i know mine will be here on the 12th, but im sure there will be lots of others who go before that! :)
 
Hey ladies! Well last week I was not thinned and open a little more than 1cm on the outside and not quite 1 on the inside. This week I am 50% effaced and a full 1cm all the way! Not quite the progress I was hoping for and hard to say if it was from the EPO or just my body doing it on it's own but any progress is good progress since I was stuck in the same place for so long! BP was 120/68 and I've gained 1lb more! All in all it was a good appointment. She did a sweep and now I've been cleaning the house up so we can call it good today.
Hope you're all doing well.
 
April 12 is an awesome day, Emmys. That's my anniversary. I secretly hope Anberlin will be born that day. I will definitely be trying :sex: the night before. That's what put me into labour with my son.
 
Thanks ladies - she has given me a v slight poke but that's it, and I've been laying here for an hour!!! I see my doc tomorrow so I'll ask her to check etc even though shell just check the heartrate, I'm guessing she may have changed which way she is facing too as my belly feels soft when lying down/ god knows where she is hiding!
 
jakes i have had the same problem with my little boy hes was soo quiet last night nothing got him to give me a decent kick and the same today i went to get checked out in the end and as soon as the monitor was put on my belly he went wild and started doing the river dance.
 
me too emmy's. we're all set for her to be here on the 15th (unless i take forever to dialate). we should all start poppin real soon here!

not sure if everyone caught it, so thought i'd share again. went to dr yesterday and i'm 1cm/70%/-2!!! excited my body is right on track and i finally have a very well behaved baby. :cloud9:
also did the strep b test which is honestly nothing. sounds far worse than it actually is, and it was negative so yay! :yipee:

EXCITING!!! :D

yea my group b strep test was nothing bad at all. In fact the midwife let me go to the bathroom and do it myself. Just stick the swap in the vagina for 5 seconds and then sweep it across my bum. That's not hard at all.
 
Just wanted to do quick update. Gunner Elisha was born this morning at 8:41am after 20 hours of labor...my longest labor of all 4. He is 8lbs 4oz and 21 inches long.
 
hi bubba no1!
congrats reeds!

had my scan yesterday and LO still had a big tummy also has a little too much fluid this can happen if mother has GD but they are still going to let me try and go to term but got to go back to see them in 2 weeks and they will book me an induction just incase i dont go into labour naturally as they wont let me go over with this GD, they say i need to ring them as soon as my waters break as if there is too much fluid the gush can drag the cord out and stuff which is quite scary to think about.
abit annoyed by the consultant 1st he came in late. 2nd he sat there yawning his bloody head off looking well chilled in the chair looking at us as if to say why are u wasting my time. 3rd kept looking at his phone and then just left without saying a word. what a w**ker. a case of him thinking he is better than everyone else coz he is a consultant got news for u mate strip ur title and u are what we are truely known as f**king HUMAN!!! (sorry for the rant)

had a bit of a better nite sleep last nite not so much turning which was good.
hope everyone is ok.
 
hayley - I am the same , I have lots of excess fluid and baby measuring big, so was told to do the same thing if my waters break.

As I'm so big and uncomfortable now, I'm booked in for an induction or C-section next Tuesday at 38+4 ( I can decide on the day, depending how "favourable" i am to be induced)

Your consultant sounds unbelievably rude! What an *rse! As long as you are getting the required care, then just try and ignore his attitude!

xx
 
Congrats again, Reeds :) x

Omg Hayley - he sounds like a right stuck up so and so :/ That gush of water pulling the cord out sounds scary :| Hope that doesnt happen!

Dana - How exciting! :D Your LO will be here before you know it :)

Ahh I keep waking up really early no matter what time I go to bed but once Im awake Im like instantly wide awake :| I used to be such a lazy cow and stay in bed till 12 at the earliest. Now its rare if I can manage to stay asleep past 9 haha.
 
I think mine might come in May too! I have been chopping and changing between two EDDs I still think it is the 19th and that is what I measure but they are sticking with 26th trying to prevent me having to be induced, if I go 2 weeks over from then I wont be induced until the 10th May. I am booked for a sweep on the 26th if nothing has happened by then. Still on the RLT and gonna start EPO on tuesday, I want to wait til I am 37 weeks by the hospitals dates just in case it is really effective....if he comes before then the MW led unit wont take me!
 
congrats reeds :)

just a little update - still being monitored but my BP was better today and although I have protein in my wee the consultant wasn't concerned about it (as it's still the same as last week and not changing)

back again in 2 days to check again but for now it's OK :)
