Second lot of bp results where still high but better than this morning! Got to go back 2 the hospital tomorroow again

 

[moomin_troll]

what do they expect, dragging u back and forth from hospital ofcourse ur bp is going to be high!

 

[xxyjadexx]

Haha I don't think they plan on doing much even if it is high again 2morro! The mw said everything else is fine but she would like 2 keep an eye on it, its costing me a fortune at the hospital lol

Hi girls. Hope you're all well.

I had a midwife appointment yesterday at the midwife led unit where I'd like to give birth, so that they could give me the thumbs up to go there, which they did, yay!

Baby still isn't engaged though & has gone back to back, boo. Think I'm in for a long wait!!

Xx

 

[moomin_troll]

coreys back to back aswel :/ so i cant say im impressed

 

[xsarahbellax]

He's been fine all along, and now this last week where I've made a conscious effort to sit forward & not slouch, and I've been bouncing on my ball, he's gone back to back!! Grrrr!!

 

[moomin_troll]

people thought zane was back to back during my labour with him as i had all my contractions in my back and then they changed their minds.

im going to sit on my birthing ball more and get on all fours haha but if i have to give birth back to back then oh well, its still going to hurt either way

 

[abs07]

Just had to say....I'm so ready to have my baby!!!!!

 

[jennthompson]

I am beyond ready to have this baby!

I was wondering if any of you feel actual kicks anymore? I feel lots of pressure when he moves around and I can see my belly move but I don't get kicks at all, just tight movements that are sometimes painful. I know they don't have much room left, but I always felt my girls kick right up until labor so I am starting to worry.

I don't feel too many kicks anymore, just small nudges and squirms! I told my MW but she just said its lack of space and all should be fine as long as your feeling 10+ movements a day x

Mine seems to be going the opposite way and getting overactive..... not sure if that's a good or bad thing lol.

Off to obstetrician now, hoping Harri's still head down and mentally pleading the powers that be to have her say yes to an induction on Monday or Tuesday to try for a vbac before resorting to the section on Thursday. Depends on if he'll fit through my pelvis and how my kidney is etc. Wish me luck ladies

 

[Stef]

Tjw good luck... I'll keep my fingers crossed for a vbac for you. Xxx

The last few weeks, his movements were there, but they were more like rolling around than anything. Last night though... OMG!! He kept me awake all night!!!!!!!!!!! And when he had hiccups, they were right at the top, which is new so I really hope he hasn't turned I asked my midwife what would happen to my induction on Tuesday if he was breech. She just told me not to worry and he would stay head down. I hope she's right.

Hope your appointment goes well! Hope it's good news!

 

[hannpin]

good luck with your appt TJW, fx'd for the vbac for you xxxxx

 

[xxyjadexx]

Good luck tjw! X

 

[CharlieKeys]

Good luck tjw!!

and like you ladies I'm done too - I'm fed up of the irregular contractions, the really bad constant period pain, the lower back ache and the fact he's so low it actually hurts to do anything!!! If he doesn't come before my DD next week I don't think I can wait until I'm 11 days overdue to see anyone!!!!!!!!! I want my son back for one thing!

 

[eandc123]

good luck TJW. Everything crossed for you.

I'm torn between wanting to be comfortable again and wanting baby to stay as I'm scared for it to be here demanding stuff!

But hospital bag is all packed. Just waiting to be picked up and taken with us. I'm going to get up out of bed in a minute and tidy up, wash the next batch of baby clothes and Try and get rid of the crap that seems to have gathered in random place around the flat. I must have been a hoarder without even realising it.

 

[sequeena]

I need to keep this baby in for as possible I've got an awful cold/chest infecton.

 

[moomin_troll]
