Erin Grace born 30 August in the birthing pool 90 mins after getting to hospital. Just managed to beat the induction date!

Bf not too great. Not sure im producing as much as she'd like yet as she seems hungry and unsettled a lotbut hopefully milk will kick in properly soon. Also at10 lb 4 oz she can afford to loose a little waiting for milk to kick in.

Hey ladies, quick update. Stella was born yesterday, August 31st at 9:31 am weighing in at 8 pounds 7 ounces, 21.5 inches long. She is perfect. Will update with pictures later.

I had a third degree tear and I am finding it quite painful now. Like Emma, it was actually fine the first few days but seems to be getting worse rather than better. Can't wait to feel normal down there again. Going to try the Sudocreme now.

Also TMI but I'm also finding that I can't hold my pee at all since the birth, it's actually fine when I cough or sneeze, but it's if I try to put off going because I'm in the middle of something I just can't hold it and have had a couple of small accidents. I really hope this will improve as it is really horrible - I'm doing my pelvic floor exercises as much as possible and have been given a physiotherapy appointment for next week because of the third degree tear so hopefully that will help. Has anyone else had similar?

I didn't have any problems with bladder control while in the hospital but when I got home, I turned on the kitchen faucet to fill my dog's water bowl and lost everything. No warning, no way to stop it, SO thankful I had a thick hospital pad on! Only problem since then is when I sneeze though so hopefully yours will improve also Polaris!

Thanks hun, that is encouraging! Yes the hospital pads are a life saver in that regard! I actually don't have any leaking when I sneeze/cough so hopefully that's a good sign too.

Congratulations ladies! How many babies are still hanging in there?

I forgot to say, HenleysMummy had Henley a couple of weeks ago. Her laptop's broke so she can't get on here. She did text me when she had him, but I deleted the text and can't remember the date! They're both doing really well though
