***December Dreamers*** 70 babies born***

[Mizze]

I might need to go back to bed - I obviously have a short fuse this morning! Ive just seen two threads asking whether rlt and gaviscon are safe to take - my respose would be along hte lines of
'Yes of course they are you stupid girls thats why it says so on the freaking box and why there are 1000 of threads on here about them'

Ahem.

Perhaps not the most tactful of responses.

Mizze I agree some people are so thick!

Tell you something I'm shocked by the amount of internal examinations the US ladies have! Given how bloody painful it is I can't imagine having it done everytime you have an appt!

I'm waiting for OH to get up for work so I can go back to bed - only had 4 hours broken sleep I'm shattered!

TBH giving birth in the states at a normal hospital sounds awful to me - exactly what I wouldnt want. Havent had an internal so cant comment on the painful nature but everything about it seems designed for the comfort and convenience of the staff not the Mother and not even the baby!

I know what you mean - theyre very quick to push for inductions and epi's and every woman seems to be flat on their back for delivery which is the worse position for labour!

 

[WILSMUM]

i can't believe shes almost 4 weeks old either and she has changed soo much already - really filled out!!
It seems I obviously produce babies that look like me - Ailsa and William are the spit of each other (and of me when I was a baby) which I find really strange seeing as they have different dads!

Morning ladies, how are you all this morning? I wonder who will be next. Got a feeling my little miss will keep us waiting a bit longer. Happy due date ness.

completely agree with this on all the birth programs I see in USA they have it so wrong! That's why I loved Reading ina mays guide to childbirth book x

I am soooo tired today
More babies? Who from?
Hope you are all ok

 

[sammiwry]

Morning! How is everyone?

I'm in quite a bit of pain got really bad period type pain with lower back pain. Gonna have some toast and then try getting some more sleep but reckon I will ring the day assessment unit if it doesn't ease up

for Sammi and for Ness

Hi Chloe sorry you are tired honey.

[sammiwry]

I doubt it Chloe the pains aren't quite so bad now but that could be cos I've got the bed to myself so more stretched out and able to get slightly more comfy. Hope it is though, Dh would love it as he was born on his due date

 

[Pixxie]

Thanks honey!

Aw bless Pamela Anderson hey haha I bought some Medela nipple shieldsmfor £5 from mothercare might be worth getting some?xx

Since it's just her latch that's painful I've been told to just stick with it and it should ease up within a week or 2. It's not as bad now there is more for her to latch on to, my bee stings weren't really up to the job!

Soon it will be the rest of u pregnant ladies up at this time to do a feed!!!

That's one thing I'm not enjoying, it's ok if she settles again straight away but if she decides she wants snuggles instead then I hardly get any sleep!

Bit of a tough night for us, Lyra wouldn't go back to sleep after her night feeds because she wanted cuddles instead. While the cuddles are lovely, I can't do it in the middle of the night becuase I start to nod off!

Happy due dates to Ness and Sammi!

Have noticed this thread is a lot quieter now so many of us have had our babies! Everyones busy busy busy xxx

Thanks Mizze!

 

[sammiwry]

Thanks pixxie!

Lol at the bee stings comment! My nipples seem to have suddenly disappeared

Glad it's going well for you breast feeding, apart from the discomfort are you enjoying it?

 

[mummyclo]

I was pretty harsh with Freddie, and never cuddled him to sleep...that sounds really mean, but he goes to sleep on his own when i put him down. He obviously gets cuddles a lot but just not in the night when i want to sleep!
I would advise against shields, i used them and couldn't get him to go on my nipple after..coz he was used to the shield...and they are a faff steralising them etc.

 

[Tierney]

Happy due date Sammi and Ness!

I think I may be one of the last ones on this thread at this rate

Congrats to RJB and Surreal

Hope Kirstys doing ok aswell

[sammiwry]

My 1st Son was born 10 days late....So that statistic makes sense to me

He was due on 22nd December
