[bazzb]

Mylan is adorable!!

Just a quick hello I am at the airport xox to all of you

 

[MommyNikki]

Thanks Bailey! Have a safe trip!

 

[MommyNikki]

Hey where's everyone at?

 

[Pray2bBlessed]

Just hanging out, impatiently waiting! Lol! I had a horrible hot flash yesterday, not really normal for me even in pregnancy, and I think I had a few contractions. I was hoping they would progress, but no such luck! Only 10 days till my due date, but I hope Wesley comes before then!

 

[MommyNikki]

Amanda isn't the final stretch the worst? Lol for your sake I hope he comes a few days early. Is your son ready for a brother? Is your baby room all ready? I know u showed us your sons room but I don't remember if you said anything about the baby room

 

[Pray2bBlessed]

Ya, I think Mikey's ready, every time he sees a baby he asks "is that my baby brother?" Lol! The baby's room is done for the most part, we just need to hang his name on the wall! John has been painting it, and it seems like he always misses a spot and has to put another coat on...lol!

 

[Dollybird]

Hey ladies! Hope everyone's well!! I'm a bit rubbishy- got a wound infection now and am on antibiotics.. It's a nightmare cause I felt like I was finally getting better and now I feel like I've taken two steps back. Never mind, just a little hiccup I'm sure. It's just frustrating cause I just wanna get back to normal and be able to focus on my wee man.. Im pretty sore again so it's making life difficult.
The wee man is good, apart from that after his 3/4am feed he decides to be wide awake each night and takes me ages to settle him back down. But I guess in the grand scheme of things I'm lucky as he tends to sleep well up until that point. And of course he's just so cute when he's wakeful and alert and staring at me.. Just wish if was during the day and not middle of night! Lol. Bathtime is becoming our favourite time- he loves his bath, and is so cuddly and smells amazing after it... Yip it's defo my favourite time of day.
How's the preggos doing?.. Any signs of those bubbas yet?
Bailey have a nice holiday!!
Tara, Naomi, hope u ladies doing well too!
And of course all the ladies tht have just had bubbas hope yous are managing to get some rest!
Love and hugs xxx

Oh Jenna, I hope you feel better soon!

Well, I saw my OB today and still no dialation, about 30% ephassed, uterus is still high, but she can feel his head. I will be 39 weeks tomorrow, and I'm getting so impatient! Lol! We scheduled induction for August 21st, I'll be almost a week over due, if he doesn't come by then, which I'm hoping and praying he does!

I was so gassy yesterday and I was hoping that was a sign of impending labor, but I guess not! Lol!

 

[Womble12]

Jenna sorry you're so sore, hope you get better soon. I can just imagine how cute your boy is though when he's wide awake at 4am!!!

Tara I hope the stress isn't too bad, I'm sorry to hear that. Things getting better?

Bailey HOLIDAY time

Amanda, I'm sharing your frustration!!!!!! I'm booked for a sweep on 23/08 but I'll be 40+4 by then! Then they'll book me in for induction but will be nearly 2 weeks overdue by then. Please let it not come to that!! My baby who has been so quiet thus whole pregnancy has become so lively these last 2 days! Had check up yesterday, baby's head is 3/5ths engaged which is good, but still doesn't mean it won't be late. Come on baby!!!!!!!! Feeling occasional pressure but nothing consistent, sigh.....

Nicky and nikki, hope you are both doing well!

Twinkle, how are you getting on?

 

[mtln777]

Tara --mike and I got into it a little the day I came home but we are a lot better now and he is helping but more by taking care of our older kids..I've been on feeding and diaper duty but I don't mind because it will be my last time to do all of this. He puts binkys in during the night tho so I don't have to wake up for false alarms even tho I'm averaging about 3 hours of sleep each night---forgot about how much sleep you don't get with a newborn lol how have you been? Doing anything fun with the girls this summer? OH spending more time at home with you?

Here's another pic for everyone [IMG]https://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p270/bacartikitten/2D10B520-AC92-4E62-BFB8-6AB5C88FD951-644-000000902632BC09_zps7dda7c65.jpg[/IMG]

Hey Nikki, glad to hear things are going good, NO SLEEP sucks.......Natalie (my 5yr old) has slept thru the night 7x's!!!! Since she was born, she gets up everynight, and comes to my room, I have been taking a valium before bed cuz I CANT stand her waking mr up to say, "mommy can I get in bed with you?" Just get in and get comfy DONT WAKE ME..... Don't know what I am going to do with her! It has been a very stressful summer which now being Aug we are about to say good-bye to......I am sad and happy at the same time. I am not TTC at the moment cuz there is to much going on in my life to deal with that....AF showed her wicked face yesterday, Had a HUGE MELTDOWN then went to the bathroom and BAM hello Af, so I feel bitchy and want to go postal on just about everything and everyone.... I quite taking the folic acid cuz I a not TTC and it only made my AF WAY HEAVIER, so I am hoping she will be nice this round by the start of it not looking good. Hope you are well and enjoying the baby... (sorry for the rant) I'm really bitchy!!!!!

Jenna sorry you're so sore, hope you get better soon. I can just imagine how cute your boy is though when he's wide awake at 4am!!!

Tara I hope the stress isn't too bad, I'm sorry to hear that. Things getting better?

I had a very long, frustrating and disappointing day yesterday. I started having regular contractions at about 4am. They were about 5 mins apart. They continued and were getting closer together so I went to the hospital about 8:30am. The contractions still continued, but I wasn't dilating, just a little over a fingertip and my uterus is still really high. So, they sent me home around 1pm since I wasn't progressing. I am still having contractions. Last night I was so discouraged I couldn't stop crying , this all just stinks! If none of this would have happened, I just would still be waiting, but I got so excited that it was time, and now I am just discouraged, not to mention still having contractions. so now I'm going to second guess when I really do need to go in...

 

[MommyNikki]

Awe I'm sorry, that's what happened to me. Contractions were like 4-5 min apart and then I get there and they went to 6-7 minutes apart and was still 1 cm and high. They only did my csection then cause I was at least 39 weeks...I felt the same way though thinking that if they sent me home how would I know to even come back...you would think that if u start having contractions that it would happen fairly quickly since you can't start then stop labor. I'm hoping things happen here soon...if you can manage a walk I would say walk as much as possible..everyone i know swears that's what helped them.

Dolly im glad to hear baby is doing well...I wish my baby slept more like yours!

Ill update and respond more a little later...my eyes are burning and need a nap while baby is asleep!

 

[Dollybird]

Aw Amanda hope bubby comes soon!! Keep us updated. You too Sophie! Can't wait for some New babies on the thread!
Nikki hope u got a good nap. Your wee man is absolutely Gorgeous btw!
Tara glad youre well, although sorry to hear af has been terrible - hope it eases off a bit for u next time. Are u ok otherwise??
Afm I'm shattered.. But getting used of it! Haha. Seems like our main issue is that after his feed at around 5am he doesn't wanna go back in his bed.. It's making me very tired! But to be fair last night he had a feed at 10:30pm then didn't wake for another till the 5am one.. However he didn't go to sleep after the 10:30pm one till 1am as he was grumpy.. And then after 5am he was grumpy again. But in all es been great. We've done quite a lot the past few days and he missed his bath last night as we were late home so wonder if that's what made him out of sorts.. He loves his bath! Other than that we both grand- hoping my wound is improving, still on antibiotics but it looks much better. Hubby has been off the last few days so been enjoying spending time all three of us. Went to "foodies" festival yesterday up here in Edinburgh- lots of free food and drinks to try. Was brilliant and amazing weather too so we had a brill day. And baby Jax behaved impeccably the whole day.. Think as long as he had milk, clean nappy, and somewhere warm and comfy to sleep with mummy and daddy in hand for cuddles he's happy.. It's just nighttimea he doesn't like it would appear!
Anyways I'm waffling now, lack of sleep...so ill shut up.
Hope everyone is well. Lots of love and hugs xxx

 

[Dollybird]

Me and little cuddly bum!

 

[Pray2bBlessed]

Jenna- he is so cute!

So, I went to the hospital again last night a round 2am. I was having more painful contractions about every 4 mins. I still hadn't dilated anymore, so they sent me home again around 5am. Urg! This is getting so old, I am just ready for Wesley to come out already! On another note, I did loose part if my mucus plug yesterday afternoon.

 

[Womble12]

Jenna, he is adorable. And you look so well too, looking lovely.

Tara, how are you? Stupid af making life more miserable

Nikki, hope you got your nap and baby is doing well.

Amanda, hold on in there, you're going to have your baby in the next 24 hours, that's nothing!! Looking forward to the news xx

 

[Pray2bBlessed]

No baby yet...

How is everyone else?

 

[Dollybird]

Aw Amanda I hope it happens soon! I'm ok- wound still sore but much better. Little one was very unsettled overnight and has been awake most of day.. He's had quite a lot of milk today, but hasn't had much yesterday so think he just catching up. We had a quieter day today, although still popped out for a bit (had some sushi yum!). Just been watching season 7 of the office - it's just been put on the Netflix there was only up to season 6 before - its bloody hilarious! Cracking me up. Xxx

 

[mtln777]

Hello girlies, how is everyone???? Amanda and Sophia I am praying ur little LO's make there appearance sooooooooon, for both ur sake....

Jenna I love the pix of u and Jax really cute....

Nikki What a little ham you have on ur hands and that hair unbelievable!!!!! I love when you wash it especially with Johnson and Johnson lavender.....Nothing like the smell of a new clean baby.

Nicky hope all is well with Isla and would love to see a pix...

AFM well AF has departed so that's a good thing..Girls awhile back I told you all about this website parentsweeviews.com and taking surveys (very short), well I won and I never win anything.....So the prizes I had to choose from were

1.A 200$ carseat (I dont need)
2.A booster seat which I have enough of lol
3. A highchair and umbrella stroller
4.A baby gate and a HUGE box of safety gadgets
5. A porta crib (very nice models btw)
6. A super nice digital thermometer and Humidifer

So most of these products I don't need or have use for so I chose the thermometer and humidifier cuz I don't have either of those....So I'm not sure if it works in UK but Amanda and Nikki check it out it's quick and easy and the surveys are short and simple... As for the TTC part I'm not sure what we are doing at this stage life's been a little to crazy and hard to even think about it but the girls start school sept 4th so I will have LOTS of free time on my hands and will probably start back up. Hope all is well and everyone is doing good.....

Bailey Hope ur having a wonderful holiday.....Can't wait to see ur BFP
Naomi I miss u like the whole world xoxoxoxoxo

Lots of love and hugs as always from me

 

[Pray2bBlessed]

That's greatTara! I'll have to look into that! Taking a break from TTC is ok, and then you can start back up when you are ready!

AFM- I went to the doc this afternoon and was 2cm, so I've made some progress since I was at the hospital on Saturday! She did a sweep, so hopefully that will get things moving! Fingers crossed!
