***April Sweet Peas 2011*** join here (48 babies born)

Thanks for the Ben pics Rainbow, he is precious!!

Thanks for the bath tips JeepGirl and MissFox, looking forward to relaxing in one this evening!

I have one of those pacifiers too, got it free in a goody bag from baby store, glad to know it's working for others!


Amethyst, glad you're able to have a laugh about all of little one's flipping, in the end he may just cooperate and go exactly where he's supposed to when the time is right.

CrazyBird, you should be fine having sex. It's when your waters break that you need to be careful of an infection. As for bladder infections I've found as long as I go pee right after having sex, that prevents almost all of them. Kind of flushes out the system.
 
Well, I'm home from L & D. I am having contractions every 7 minutes and am dilated to 1cm. Normally, they would tell a woman at 36 weeks that it's false, but I've been in the situation before where I was 2cm dilated and told it was false labour, only to be 7cm 2 hours later. At this point, they're not saying either way if I'm in false labour or early labour, but I very well could be in early labour.
 
Hey cottles, are you up and about with toby? Has it sunk in yet that he's really here? X
 
Brandi - how exciting!
Keeping everything crossed for you and looking forward to updates xx
 
Exciting Brandi!!!
Well the usual evening BH have started- I don't even want to time them! Gonna go take a bath since dinner was all YUMMY. That's a nice thing about staying with my mom! lol

No word from gemsy huh? and nothing on her FB either.
 
Good luck brandi!! Xx
Smeej, I'm wide awake lol... In a way it's settling in but it's still so bizarre that this little guy on my knee grew inside my belly! :haha:
He's just scared himself silly with the hiccups, bless him... and now he won't settle back down again. Yay for the night shift haha
 
I think everything was just false. It's all died down. I'm not too terribly disappointed. I do want her to be full term before she's born.
 
Happy birthday Jen!

Gem must be in labour with no update for so long.

I'm off to eat half a pineapple for breakfast! This baby will make a move soon, I'm determined! x
 
Morning ladies :) Happy Birthday Chocojen :) x

A quick question - does anyone elses bump get really sore in the night? And really hard? All day bump is just nice but at night it takes on a life of its own!

Also, still not getting any BHs, but I get a lot of period like pain and sharp pains in my cervix (or where I imagine it to be) - what the hell is that!
 
Hey Gertrude, my BHs start with period pain and I've also been getting lots in the night. I reckon your sore hard bump at night is probably BHs! Cervix discomfort could be head engaging or maybe even effacement/start of dilation.
 
Gertrude, my MW told me that shooting pains are baby's head engaging. Not that mine has done much of that!

When your bump goes hard I'm sure that's a BH. You are having them! x
 
But the hardness doesn't wear off - it's almost like it's hard all night! It makes getting up for a wee really hard!

Oh pickle has woken up now - they know I'm talking about them! I served another eviction notice after I was sure I saw a TV being delivered yesterday - they're TOO COMFY!
 
My bump is going crazy thiis morningm I look like I am belly dancing.....maybe its my little mans way of saying happy birthday!

Gertrude my bump is sore most nights I blame it on the way I move in bed!
 
Happy birthday choco.

Gurtrude I have the hard bump at night when I'm in bed. It does make getting up very difficult.

Does anyone elses baby sleep when your sleeping at night, mine used to wake me up kicking but now he just sleeps all night and then I wake up thinking something is wrong. Hope little man is ok.
 
happy birthday chocco :D:D, wonder if anyones baby here will end up sharing it with you!?

crazy, think my little man sleeps at night too, but then wakes up when I have breakfast in the morning..he obviousily likes his grub :lol:

yesterdays eviction techniques have made no difference, so onto a swim later :dohh: xxx
 
Happy Birthday Jen :)

Ahhh still no baby.
Lots of pains. But no baby.
Went back up the hospital last night and omg they were so snotty :/
Monitor showed I was having regular contractions. (Hurts like shit when your on there and get contractions D:)
So they did an internal....
The contractions arent freaking doing anything. I still wasnt dilating :| So all that pain and discomfort (which is still happening) FOR NOTHING!
The MW came in the room after testing my pee with a great big grin on her face to tell me "you have a water infection" and stood there smiling like a freaking idiot. Was I supposed to be happy about that, really? :/
And then they sent me on my way telling me to "put more weight on as you'll be able to feel every movement baby makes due to being so thin"
Seriously just wtf. Never heard that one before?
They said the contractions are probably being caused by thin-ness and my body reacting to Ollies movements by tightening up orrr by the water infection :/
At this rate, Im not going to know real labour if it hits me in the face!
Naughty Ollie :(
