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

Everything stopped for me now, no backache, no period pains!

Feeling a bit deflated today after feeling like I was getting somewhrembut 3 days on zilch!

Reckon I'm here for the long haul too Sammi!

Happy due date to us both!!
 
Would be a boxing day baby by that figure, which then actually adds up with different articles I've read about due dates. While looking at accupressure points one of the people said that for first babies they add 2 weeks to there mums to be due date an baby is normally within 4 days of the longer due date
 
Thanks pixxie!

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

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

Yea I am enjoying it very much. It feels good to know that I'm nourishing her all by myself, gives me a self indulgent fuzzy feeling :winkwink:

I'm so glad I didn't go ten days over! Not only would it have been x-mas day but she would have been even bigger. With a 2nd degree tear at 8lbs 5.5 I dread to think what would have happened if I had gone over :shock: xxx
 
I went 10 days over with my first!

And Chloe I think u've done the right thing in not cuddling Freddie to sleep! U've def made life easier for yrself in the long run!
Thankfully Ailsa is very good and will quite happily kick about in her basket for a bit after a feed and then drop off to sleep when she gets tired!
She did stir slightly at about 1 this morning but half asleep I popped her dummy in her mouth and then that was her off again till about 4:30-5ish!
 
Congratulations to rjb and to Surreal on their babies!! Lovely pic rjb. And surreal I will continue my rlt intake! :thumbup:

Also forgot to write baby is only 2lbs 7oz, but they hope he/she will put on alot more before being born, so im kinda hoping i go over my EDD now so baby has as much time inside me to put more weight on, ino its only 3 more days inside but its still something.

Hey hon - 1st im glad baby is okay - we were getting a little worried. :hugs: 2 my LO is also measuring 2 weeks behind and my mw and sonographer just said its unlikely I will end up with a 10lb baby. That weight seems very low and the hospital midwives told me its pretty inaccurate. So dont panic. :hugs: A colleauge was told his daughter was measuring very very small and told his wife would have to have steroid injections - she went into labour the next day 3 weeks early and their LO was a good 6 1/2 lb baby and perfectly healthy.

I have been mia for the past few days. Congrats to all the new mommies. I have no time to go back and read the updates. I hope you are all doing well.

Apparently my gallbladder didn't enjoy being pregnant as much as I did. I went into the hospital on tuesday with severe abdomen pain and throwing up. I was diagnosed with pancreatitis and gallstones. Probably brought on by the pregnancy and genetics. They removed my gallbladder last night and I am home now. I couldn't breastfeed for 24 hours, so hopefully he takes to me when I am able to tonight. I need to go rest now. I am pretty comfortable considering.

Once again, congrats to the new mommies!!!:happydance:

Oh hon, glad you are okay - sorry you had to go through this. :hugs:

Minch- hope she pops soon for you :hugs:

Minch that's called your pubic line -Ava was like that now she rolls her shoulders round there ha ha

Congratulations Surreal -Eli is gorgeous and lovely name!

I managed 4 hours with only 2 toilet trips last night whoopp!!!!! Feeling more achey and crampy again this morning maybe wishful thinking she'll come on her due date...?!

She has her back completely facing out now - is that good for
Delivery?

Congrats to me and Sammi on D Day! :happydance:

Happy due date to you and Sammi!!! :happydance::happydance:

No text from Kirsty overnight so am assuming if anything is happening its not happening too fast.

Snowing like feck here.

I think Caitlyn my dere that Mummy would prefer you to stay where you are until Monday or Tuesday. Worked out last night we can get to the hospital - but frankly how many staff would be able to make it is debatable..... Do not fancy the idea of getting to the hosptial only to find they have a skeleton staff on!

I dont no i think i just went into a panic because the MW filled my head with rubbish and i just couldnt stop crying with worry for my baby. Now that i understand there isnt a very big concern iv been able to relax alot and just chill now until baby is ready to come.

9 days left until my EDD :happydance:

My mw was very good to be fair but cos of previous miscarriages I went into meltdown panic mode too. Im much more relaxed about it now - its obvious my LO isnt a huge baby - but then I was a 6lb5 baby and im 5ft 8! And DH was only 7lb7 too.

Glad you are feeling more relaxed. :hugs: Horrible when you get a scare like that isnt it.

I definately understand about the 2nd degree tear thing!!!! I had one too... had to stitch the muscle back together :( and he was only 6lb7!
 
I tried to talk the midwife out of giving me stitches :haha: she thought I was mad, I'd just had a baby with no pain relief and was asking for the gas and air before my legs were even in the stirrups! Xx

To be honest my MW is just so forgetful and dizzy iv to remind her to do stuff at our apoointment, she forgets equitment and runs around for ages faffing about, last time she couldnt find the Jelly to hear babies heart beat and ended up just running it under the water tap :dohh: And she just got to flustered about sending me for the scan i was just abit stunned.
Just out of all my 5 sisters none of them had this happen to them and between them all they have had 12 kids i no everyone is different, but it just scared the heck outta me that there could have been something wrong, Near went into melt down.
Just glad everything went as well as it could have and baby doing ok insde of me.
 
I am glad i only had a tiny graze and small skin tear, she said she didn't need to stitch it, but that it would heal quicker if she did so i had one stitch.
How long were you pushing ducky and pixxie?

Found u again, must've unsubscribed by mistake!

Not even had time to scratch my arse most days this week so apologies for lack of posts! Hope ur all well!! We are still battling with low milk supply n poor latch (much better with shields)

Best go change my stinky daughter! Love to all x x x
 
Nice to see the new mommies on here we've missed you :)

Well I've cleaned the Venetian blinds, tidied up and had a shower my backs killing now! Bump is feeling so heavy and cumbersome I'm exhausted just walking to the kitchen!
 
Ness you put me to shame! Dh brought me up toast in bed and I went back to sleep. Would probably still be asleep if my mum hadn't rung cos I hadn't replied to her text about did we have snow as it's snowing at hers. Made Dh poached eggs on toast for lunch and I've had Heinz chicken noodle soup which I didn't like :-( now after a short sit down we are gonna have a tidy up and then go and get my new car battery!
 
:yipee: :yipee:

:wohoo:

I am VERY pleased to announce for xKirstyx that Emily was born at 11.15am weighing 8lbs! :baby::baby::baby::baby::flower:

Kirsty is still in hospital because they found out last night she has strep b so they are keeping her in 24 hours.
