****August 2010 Babies & Buddies**** - 108 Babies Born

Thanks ladies!

Baby france, i may just have to attempt that! :winkwink:

Blob, you go girl! :bodyb:

Well the sweep didn't hurt at all :thumbup: just a lot of pressure when she did it, felt like i had to pee :blush: but it didn't hurt. Not sure if it actually did anything or not tho bc i dont have any cramping and no blood :shrug: so IDK. Really hope it works tho! The doc said to remain upright so his head can put pressure on the cervix to release hormones and dilate it. REALLY hope it works! I only have one day left to be an August mama :sad1:
 
well girlies, ive had my little girl, i was having contractions the night before my induction but they died off by the time id gotten to the hospital so she gave me the first pessary and told me to go and chill for 6hrs lol, when i came back nothing had changed, cervix wise, so she gave me another pessary, within 4hrs of having teh second pessary i had her, my little gorgeous, serin hamide marie, born 8.18pm weighing 8lbs 8.5oz on 29th august :D

Yay!!! Congratulations! x

Baby Molly finally arrived on the 24th weighing 8lb 4Oz. I refused an induction but the second sweep and an afternoon on the trampoline with my 3 year old seemed to do the trick! I was so pleased as it meant I could have my water birth. Congratulations to all the other new Mums and good luck to those waiting patiently.

Congratulations! So glad you were able to have your waterbirth!

hi girls!
Well everything went GREAT today! :dance:
Got to see my little guy...who isn't quit as *little* anymore :haha: (as compared to 20 weeks!). Baby was moving up a storm! (no wonder tho, i drank super cold OJ before specifically bc normally around 10 AM he is asleep :dohh:) Anyways, baby is very happy in there! (no wonder he hasn't came out yet! :dohh:) The tech said his HB was great, amniotic levels are wonderful, baby was moving up a storm and the placenta is doing just fine :D I also had to sit for about 45 min with 2 straps hooked to my belly to monitor his HB and i had to push a button every time he moved. HE was a squirmy little booger thats for sure! :haha:



So even though i am one week overdue (they wanted to induce me tomorrow or Wednesday, docs in the States are VERY adamant about inducing women during the 41st week. :wacko: So i am just praising God that everything is fine and dandy and i dont have to be induced this week! :happydance:

They get so big on the u/s screens. My last u/s with Kelana was at 36 weeks, and I couldn't really tell what I was looking at because she was so big! LOL! Glad to hear that baby is doing well.

Thanks ladies!

So glad it didn't hurt. Come on contractions!!!



AFM: Kelana is two weeks old today! Where has the two weeks gone? I am feeling SO much better, albiet a tad tired. LOL! Today I dropped the two older kidlets off at a playdate, and I decided to walk. I pushed the stroller up the steep hill, and it was fine! I felt so good, and strong and not even out of breath. Can't wait to start my exercising probably next week. I feel so good. Oh, and remember how four days after I had given birth I had only lost ONE pound...well, now I have lost 29 pounds. That's more like it! That is how much swelling I had after her birth. So, yeah, I am off all medications and pain meds. I still have a flow though (yuck) and breastfeeding is going great. She is a good baby (I hope I don't jinx that) and I am very very happy.
 
Well ladies, tomorrow is the big day for me. I go in at 6am Tuesday morning for my c-section. Wish me luck! I will post pics and details as soon as I am able!
