Just a quick update. My little boy Alfie arrives today on his due date woke up at 12:30am with my waters breaking so had to go into hospital were I was having contractions but little man didn't like them so his heartbeat would drop everytime I had one. In the end my contractions became irregular so the drs suggested I get induced. At 1pm when they started the drip I was 3.5cms and little Alfie was born at 2:45 pm! The birth was quick but painful (I went from 7cm to pushing in 10mins!) but he is perfect

Can't wait for my DS1 and DD to meet their little brother tomorrow x

Addy - that sounds very promising! I tried to stay on my feet for a while but then got tired and had a nap and everything fizzled out. I doubt the sweep will work for me.

Christiansmum- wow, congratulations! I am so happy that your boy arrived so promptly! It actually seems more common than statistics let on to give birth on your due date. Again, so happy for you!

Can you feel yourself dilate? I was 2cm and head at -2 on Monday and hadn't realised until midwife checked. I had had some feelings before that where my cervix felt tender when baby moved.

I'm asking as I've felt more tonight and a lot more pressure in my hips. Baby is very active. I hope it means something and just isn't because the baby is so low.

Love cakes - I feel like I can feel my cervix become more effaced. What you're feeling definitely could be something!

Congrats Christiansmum! So happy for you!!

I feel a lot of pressure when of stand, but as soon as I sit or lay down, nothing! Haha. I really want this baby out now!!

 

[Literati_Love]

Addy - yeah, I had quite a bit of cramping/pressure and a few painful contractions after the sweep was done but now things are basically back to normal (besides the fact that I'm still spotting). Pretty sure this baby is way too comfortable in there to make an appearance. I also want her out - now! Let's hope we both wake up in labour tomorrow!

Another restless night, woke up to pee, got back to bed n hot a really bad tummy ache, before I new it I was running back to the lol with upset tummy. Came outta nowhere. I appear to have got a mouth ulcer now aswell. I'm falling apart lol. Anyone selling any spare body parts haha

I've been awake till 1.30am then waking up about 7am past few nights. I just can't get comfy either.

I updated the fb group but not here - Braxton Jay was born 8-5-14 at 7:43 am. He was 6 lbs 14.6 oz and 18.5 in long. We are both doing good, having some troubles with feeding/losing weight but my milks coming in and it should be better soon

 

[AMB2013]

Hey guys!

Just thought I'd let you know, my son, Miles West, was born 08/06 at 12:44 AM by C section. after 34 hours of labor wherein I was sent home three times because I just wouldn't dilate. I love him like crazy and feel like he makes it all worth it. Here are a couple photos for you guys! I wish you all nothing but happy, healthy children as well.

Congrats, Ashley and AMB!

And good luck, banana!

Congrats on the beautiful babies ladies!!!!!

 

[clynn11]

AMB2013- How much did he weigh? Just wondering for the front page, thanks!

 

[JJsmom]

Congrats to all those ladies who have had their babies so far!! Been keeping up with the FB group but been terrible about getting on here. So exciting to see so many LO's already making their appearance!

 

[AMB2013]

AMB2013- How much did he weigh? Just wondering for the front page, thanks!

Hey, clynn! He weighed 8.3. Thankful he didn't make it to 40w, honestly. He would've been closer to 10! He was 20.5 inches long, if you need that as well.

 

[clynn11]

Pretty sure I just lost the rest of my mucous plug. I lost a tiny bit of it last Thursday but just now there was a crap ton of it. 40+6 today, hoping she is ready to make her appearance!

 

[AerisandAlex]

Congrats to all the babies being born!!

Clynn11 - I really hope this is it for you and you get to meet Zuri soon!!

Logan Robert arrived on August 4th at 7:16pm.
After my OB broke our water I was put on pitocin and an epidural and we went from 3cm to 8cm in just a few short hours and then 8cm to 10cm in just over 1 hour.

He did give us a little scare because his heart rate was dipping on the monitor during contractions, turns out it was because the cord was around his neck but thankfully, after 9 quick pushes he was out and our OB was able to get it off him quick enough before it became a problem

6lbs 15oz and 20 inches long and bright eyed a bushy tailed We just love him so much already

 

[AerisandAlex]

And here's Logan today, just glad to be home and his sister and brother can't get enough of him

 

[Literati_Love]

Omg, congrats, Aeris! So many babies bein born!
