good luck for today gem will be thinking of u!
congrats smeej hope everything gets sorted soon sending lots of positive thoughts

kept having back spasms yesterday but they seemed to have stopped now. had a rubbish nite sleep. the house looks like a bomb has hit it and no matter what i do i never seem to make a dent in it quite frustrating so much to do yet so little time.

hope everyone is ok.
 
Congrats Smeej. Glad to hear you're recovering well & that Eva is doing well now she's in the right place. Sending lots of positive thoughts that you're both home together very soon. x
 
Congrats smeej!

:hugs: to anyone that need it! (sorry phone is crap and so is my memory to quote!)

No movement here today, off to the beach with OH and Reg later. It's about 30 mins drive from here though so taking bags and note just in case! Then tonight I'm out for a curry with a friend.

By this point I was in labour with my little boy! Feels weird! Gunna be even more weird to go overdue? :shrug:

How is everyone else today?

X
 
Smeej, congratulations! Sorry to hear you have both been so unwell, sending love and hugs to you both xxxxxxx

Gem thinking about you today

Hayley fxd its something starting for you

I am off to aquanatal this morning and then seeing a friend this afternoon. I have upped the EPO dose so hoping that that combined with the activity of aquanatal may get things going, I know I am being inpatient and I could still have nearly 3 (or potentially 5) weeks to go but I want him out now!!!!
 
Congrats Smeej!!

I know what you mean moomoo, I'd had my first at 39+5 so to be 39+6 is abit annoying! Im gonna be even worse if I go overdue - looking quite likely *sob* I think a hot curry might be in order for me tonight!
 
Congrats Smeej! hope you and Eva both get to go home safe and well very soon :)

Goodluck today Gem!

Ahhh still no action here. Feel like i'm just watching the days ticking by now! grrr. On the bright side its a gorgeous day again :) xx
 
Congratulations Smeej, I hope that Eva (beautiful name!) is out of NICU and back in your arms very soon :hugs:

Gem - Good luck, honey. Ollie will soon be here :happydance:

Sounds close MissFox, fingers crossed for your lovely midwife.

Hope you are all well, ladies.
 
Smeej congratulations!

Gem thinking of you today, hope all goes smoothly!

I'm terrible for going places without my notes and bags lol! I drove to Brighton and back the other weekend, then kent to surrey, yet forgot my notes. Really am terrible!!
Hopefully going shopping at shepherds bush tomorrow, white city westfields, just want to go on a shopping trip!! Some may think I'm mad, but I feel energetic and less lethargic than 2 months ago !
 
Congratulations Smeej! Hope you and Eva are back home soon :)

I feel the same as you caro! How long over EDD are you 'allowed' to go before they start huffing about your homebirth? I get 12 days apparently, so only a week left!! Stress!!
 
Congrats smeej, hope you both home very soon. I love the nane Eva.

Yay its my due date today but no sign of the little man. Happy due date to you too missfox.
I'm at the mw at 12 for my sweep and then out for lunch with my mum and brother.

Hope everythings going well gem.

Click to expand...

yeah I only get 12 days too...ahhh. I at least want the opportunity to try and have a home birth! feels like its slipping away! though I know a lot can happen v quickly all of a sudden! are you going to get induced come the 12 days over or accept induction? have to say i'm going to accept induction begrudgingly, i've had enough! xx
 
Congratulations smeej, love the name, it's beautifull xx
Good Luck Gem x
 
Congrats smeej!! Hope you're both doing well this morning and that you get to go home together really soon xx

Gem, good luck! Will be thinking of you today xx
 
just somehow managed to paint my toenails :D, means I can wear flip flops out in this heat! not done too bad a job considering it was really quite tricky to reach :haha:
 
congrats smeej xx

good luck today Gem hope everything goes well x

no joy here unfortunately contractions stopped, still getting some on and off but not as strong! Im in lots of pain and really hoping he comes soon before doctors intervene as it reduces my chance of vbac!
 
Its my due date and I'm up at 4am again! WTH!
Not holding my breath on anything today but got woken up by a couple contractions tonight and my cramping is pretty bad. I'm gonna try for more sleep and hope its not raining later for a nice walk.

Hope things are going good Gem!

Happy due date to me
 
I think I'm going to have monitoring and decide from there - talked a bit more about it on the homebirthing forum - I'm writing a hospital birth plan as well so they can think again if I'm giving birth on my back in stirupps AGAIN, no freaking way!!! lol
 
So I'm going to the midwives today. I'm going to ask them if there is anything they can do for me to help get my labor going. Not sure if they will but here is why I need the baby out now:

My grandmother, who is extremely dear to me, is coming to stay for a month on the 13th. She's 100% Cuban and I've tried to explain to her that I'm not going to a hospital but she doesn't understand. She had a very bad experience with my mothers labor and they both almost died so she gets extremely worried in these situations. If she's here when I labor it's going to stress me out because I know I will be focused on her at least to some degree instead of my body and the labor. It would be better for the two of us if she wasn't here when I went into labor. And the time for that is running out.

Do you guys know what the midwife would suggest fir me if anything??
