Beach Bumps - July Rainbows

[Dollybird]

Aw ladies I feel your pain. But wooo yes I'm excited its finally July!
Gotta get ready to go meet the in laws so just a wee short post just now.
This baby needs to come out!!! Lol. I've just had words with him and asked him nicely but firmly to come out before his mama splits in two! Lol. Hope he takes pity on me. Hope everyone is ok. Have fun on those birthing balls!! We need some more newborns this week me thinks! Xxx

 

[BeautifulD]

I keep getting ooooo not long now by the looks of it! From strangees Thankfully all.my friends and family know whats happening so I haven't had such texts lol.

One more sleep... I won't lie, im crapping my pants! Lol. I feel so un organised!

I will be updating via my bnb bestie embo and she'll update my journal so those of you on my journal feel free to update in here xxx

 

[mackjess]

Not gonna lie, in November July seemed a million years away. Now that it's here I'm freaked the F out.

 

[BeautifulD]

Haha same jess!!

 

[A1983]

Me too!! Everytime I get a cramp im like 'ohhhh sh*t...' but then when it comes to nothing im downing my rlt ha ha hoping for some quick results! Goodluck beautiful! Xxx

 

[mackjess]

I still haven't felt a cramp, had any extra mucus or fluid come out, not a single twinge, lower back pain, period like cramp, NOTHING. Not even much pelvic pain and his head is still over to the side some. He isn't even lined up yet! UGH. We may have to have a chit chat today.

I'm doing my ball, RLT, and EPO still. My feet are massive, my headaches and heartburn are getting out of control, my hands are like a crippled persons from swelling and carpal tunnel and don't even get me started on the hip/back pain from not sleeping well.

While I am freaked out, I want him outta here! I hope you ladies with more symptoms pop soon to get some relief.

And BD, you are almost 40 weeks. OMG. When is your next appt?

 

[BeautifulD]

I've suffered with all of those for weeks now so I feel you pain hun.

I'm booked in got my C-Section tomorrow Jess!!

 

[mackjess]

Oh prego brain. LOL. I know you have your section tomorrow. I bet you aren't sleeping and super excited.

I just noticed FJ was at 39+6!

 

[flapjack10]

I know MJ it's mad! 40 weeks! Come on Cheekyface! Eviction notice served!

Ooof carpal tunnel - I sympathise, it's rough!

xxx

 

[Dollybird]

Ooh bd I'm so excited for you!!! Hope all goes well and can't wait to read your birth story!!
Jess I've got awful carpal tunnel too- it's terrible at night sometimes stops me sleeping. Only cure will be giving birth! Don't worry too much that u haven't had any "signs" as such.. Some women don't... Whereas some have loads yet still go overdue! I've stopped trying to second guess things now.. Labour is just so unpredictable I guess it could be any of us next!
Afm just been to midwife. Baby has gone from being head down but "free" on Friday, to 1/5th engaged (4/5ths palpable) today. So I'm hoping he's on his way. It's weird though cause I kept thinking all weekend that it was "just about to happen" yet never did, and now I feel like it could be weeks! hope not. She says the pain I'm having is spd so been referred back to physio. Just lucky I never developed it earlier I guess.. It's agony! Bp still up a bit for me so been told to watch out for other signs of possible pre eclampsia and come in immediately if I have any.
Hope everyone's doing good otherwise!
I'm away to bounce bounce bounce on the ball! Xxx

 

[BeautifulD]

Yeah I stole FJ's DD

Lets hope we have a good few births this week

 

[JFG]

I hear you ladies I am so ready for this baby to make an appearance now I'm so fed up im taking 2 x 1000mg epo and my RLT and nothing although the other morning I woke up with period type pain just at front not in my back and got all excited went to the toilet emptied bladder back to bed they latest a little while then wore off and not even a slight twinge since oh and I am getting calls and texts everyday asking if there's any sign which is making me worse I feel like I'm on repeat 'no nothing ill let u know if anything happens' help!!!

BD good luck for tomorrow I can't wait to hear all about it, so exciting

 

[BeautifulD]

Today is here

I have to call the hospital at seven.... PLEASE let there be beds!

Eeeek I could have my rainbow in a few short hours

 

[flapjack10]

BD - Fingers, toes, hair, legs EVERYTHING crossed for you! hope you enjoy my due date, ya thief!

JFG - it's like your living my life at the moment! Going through exactly the same. I'm replying to people with two word answers such as; "Not yet!" "Will do!" "Nothing yet" but really I'm saying "P off!" "F off" in my head. It makes me feel a little better!

I don't think my little ginger ninja is going to make an appearance anytime soon...

 

[Dollybird]

Good luck bd!! Looking forward to hearin all about it!!

Happy due date fj!!

Xxx

 

[kelly4]

Bd- hope it all goes well and you get to meet your bubba today.
I have 15 days left but it is going quick now, we picked up our new house keys yesterday, so we are moving bits in at a time, I feel useless as I cant do anything, have packed a few boxes but I refuse to do any hard lifting as its near the end, we need to do a lot of work in the house, but after having a c-section, I am restricted to what I can do. It will be nice however to have a house at last as we have been in a flat for 7 years, just everything is happening at once. How is everyone feeling, I am not liking the weather, I am soo hot all the time and walking is starting to get painful and slow, not long now everyone xxxx

 

[JFG]

Haha FJ I'm thinking the same in my head! I really hope its any day now for you! I can't believe how impatient I've become now due date is nearing lol its like I'm waiting for a holiday that never arrives just want this baby out safe and in my arms!

BD I have everything crossed that you get to meet your rainbow today eeek

 

[mackjess]

so excited for bd, and goodness with two due dates this week we should be seeing some more! when do you ladies see your mw next?

 

[merristems]

I see mine next week i will be 34.6wks! Time is ticking on. Im so sleepy today.
Roll on babys'

 

[Dollybird]

I don't see mine again till I'm 39 weeks!! Ages away. Never mind... Maybe if I'm lucky ill have had bubs before then. I'm feeling pretty pants today- had the "runs" yesterday and vomited this morning. Tummy doesn't feel upset or anything I just feel tired and queesy. Was gonna go to shops and treat myself whilst hubby at golf but after much back and forth I've ended up just putting a track suit on and resigning myself to the sofa. Feel like I should be doing something- almost guilty cause I'm not, but I really can't be bothered! Xxx
