Darling buds of May and June bugs!

[gypsy1981]

Yeah I definitely want to breastfeed. I'd like to do it til she's 6 months old but I'm trying not to put too much pressure on myself in case I can't do it for any reason. The local breastfeeding support group seems excellent though so hopefully they'll help with any problems I have.

Aw bless your dad. Mine just thinks I'm in labour every time he doesn't hear from me for a few hours. It was his birthday on Tuesday and I was late getting over with his card as I dozed off on the settee so he was convinced I was in labour!

Wish it was leading to something Suze but not really getting anything today apart from a bit of an achey back. I'm going to try and do the same as you Rose and not read into anything unless it's a definite sign as all this wondering has for me demented. I have a maximum of 12 days left of being pregnant before I'm induced so I'll join that countdown with you!

 

[moggi]

Yes, come join the induction countdown with me nicola XxX

Rose I've had mad itchy boobs today as well!!! Driving me nuts!

 

[moggi]

They're terrible aren't they. I had a nice long bath earlier and ended up scratching them terribly, even bled a bit. I could not stop once i'd started, they're a right mess now. Lets hope they've healed a bit before she turns up! XxX

 

[meganOUFC]

Same here!!!! Hahahahahaha although I didn't make them bleed

 

[moggi]

Lol, you clearly have more self control than me! Wonder how Brandy is? XxX

 

[gypsy1981]

Hmm baby Zoey should be here by now! How exciting

How is everyone feeling this morning? Any more babies on the way? Mine just seems to give me pains at night and then they disappear by the following morning. I think she's just trying to tease me now x

 

[moggi]

No baby here i'm afraid. Have been up for hours feeling like crap though. Cough still not easing and now i've got a dodgy tummy, though it might be a sign (but i'm not sign spotting anymore am i? lol) Its really achy though and I keep having random bh but lets be totally honest, I type that nearly every other day! Mark starts his job tomorrow so Isobelle has pretty much run out of time now. Never thought i'd say this but hoping she holds out until next weekend now (I must be mad!!) How is everyone else? XxX

 

[moggi]

Oh i've had another weird and freaky dream too! In my dream you didn't give birth for some reason, the hospital rang you when your baby was ready and you went and collected it (yes I know, my mind is deranged lol). Anyway..... Mark went to collect the baby and when he got home 1: it was a boy and 2: he was about 9 or 10 months old! He did look exactly like Mark though. I said thats not mine, its too old but nobody else could see my point. Then I asked how much he weighed and Mark said 5lb 10. This baby was getting more advanced by the minute and eventually undid the carseat straps and escaped, running around upstairs. Thankfully I woke up after that bit, What the hell is going on in my subconscious? lol XxX

Hey ladies, just wanna say I do keep checking in here. I am silently stalking you all!!

I don't have much to input as aren't preggas anymore but love all the "not" symptom spotting your doing ;O).

Thinking of Brandy and Zoey too x

Indy is well and is 6lb 1oz now. Strange she is 3 weeks old and still so newborn, my others had outgrown their newborn baby grows by now and were moving into 0-3 months. Indy doesn't even fit the newborn ones properly yet.

Love the dream about the hospital calling when your baby is ready! Lol! If it was that easy men would do it!!!!!

xxxx

 

[moggi]

Awww you'll have to put some more pictures up of her. Yes i'm officially not symptom spotting (i wish lol but you know how it is, you get a new ache or sensation etc and it sets you off all over again) glad you're still stalking XxX

 

[meganOUFC]

How did the last 39 weeks go so quick! These last possible few weeks, the minutes seem like hours!

 

[moggi]

ha ha, yeah and the most uncomfortable. I have had the weirdest bh's today. Think they might have finally gone, havent had one for the last half an hour but my god they hurt today and some were more like period pains and all in the back of my hips and down my legs. Pure madness XxX

 

[Elanesse]

x

 

[moggi]

It'd be great if the hospital did ring wouldn't it? You did well to get a back rub mark hates it if i cry and usually stays away from me lol. I think longest back rub i got off him was about 5 mins before he started making moaning noises and said his arms hurt! Typical bloke, remember telling him at the time he'd better do better than that when i'm in labour lol. Hope youre feeling better today anyway, and your dinner sounds lovely XxX

 

[BrandysBabies]

Zoey didnt come. Apparently I became very dehydrated which brought on very painful false labor. We are talking tears streaming down my face painful every 2 to 3 minutes. But my cervix never changed and according to my insurance, unless there is a medical reason I can not be delivered before 39wks. So, after a shot in the butt, an IV in my arm, blood taken for pre op, a consult with the anesthesiologist, and being prepped for my c-section I was told I was being sent home, painful contractions and all! Fun stuff! Very unfair to make a person think they are having a baby in a couple of hours to "we have decided to make you wait 3 more days." Anyway, I am back at home having literally slept for the past 16hrs which my dh waking me up periodically to drink more water. Roll on Wednesday!

 

[moggi]

Awww brandy, thats a terrible way to be treated if i was you i'd rest up for the next couple of days and it'll be Wednesday before you know it and you'll finally be meeting Zoey. Thinking of you XxX

 

[gypsy1981]

Aw Brandy I'm so sorry, that must be so disappointing when you were all ready to meet her! Still at least you know the end is in sight and in 3 days time you'll have your beautiful baby girl in your arms

Leanne hope you're feeling better now. It's horrible having moments like that, I've cried far too much lately!

Rose I'd love for your dream to be true too. I'm getting more and more scared of labour as the days go by. I think the not knowing what to expect and when to expect it is the worst part. If I had a definite date when it was going to happen I could prepare myself for it but as it is it's just waiting and waiting!

Deb it's lovely to hear that Indy is doing well. Can't believe you have a 3 week old baby already x

 

[moggi]

Well I waved Mark off to work about an hour ago. I did feel sorry for him, he's all nervous about a new job and worried about when Izzy is going to make an appearance. It is a bit awkward as he doesn't know if he can keep his phone on him or not but i've told him to explain the situation to them. Surely they couldn't be so horrible to not understand or at least give him a landline number for me to contact if needed. I don't think she's in any hurry to appear anyway lol. Got mw at 11.15, I suppose this will be the last appointment I have at the GP wont it? Feels weird!

Hows everyone else this morning? XxX

 

[dt1234565]

Aw Brandy how awful x good luck on Wednesday though, still exciting ay!!!! x

Rose I am sure they will be fine about the phone thing, I mean god who wouldn't, they can't expect him to miss that! xxx

When all our bubbas are here, shall we start a new group somewhere on here to keep up with the babies and how everyone is doing?

As requested here are some more Indy pics xx
