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

[samantha.xo]

My gosh, so many babies born now! Congrats to everyone Still waiting for my little man to make an arrival!

How do all you new mummies cope with all the house work and a baby at the same time! I'm worried about having too much to do and not being able to cope...OH isn't a tidy person, so that doesn't help either

Good luck today with the sweeps girls hopefully will set one of you off or both! X

I didn't cope with my first and all the housework etc always got left to the wkend when my then OH was home so he could look after the baby while I cleaned the house from top to bottom!
But all the health professonials (and many new mums) will tell you not to worry about housework to start with and to just spend the time bonding with, getting to know and building a routine with your baby - they are newborn for such a short time and it realy does fly by so make the most of it while you can as before you know it they'll be weening and crawling and into everything!

I'm very lucky this time in that Ailsa is a very happ,content and settled baby so I can feed her put her down into her moses basket and then get some dusting and hoovering done!

Also a really good piece of advice for all you first time mums out there, when baby is napping during the day don't creep around, whisper, turn the TV down and try to be quiet just carry on as normal and baby will get used to and sleep through the noise and u'll be thankful for it when they get older! My first William would sleep through WW3 I swear to god! And even now I can hoover right under Ailsas basket with her alseep in it and she won't stir! Mind you they do say that the noise of the hoover can help to sooth an antsy baby!

Do you think that's what it is? It feels worse when she grinds her head and moves around Mw coming between 11am and 1pm gonna take some cocodamol soon so it's effective for when she's here lol I'm such a wimp!

You can add me to the list of babies born!
I haven't been on here for awhile but my little girl, Hannah Grace was born on Thanksgiving (2 weeks early--my due date was December 10th)! November 25, 2010 at 4:57am weighing in at 7lbs 9 ounces and 19 inches long. On Christmas she'll be a month old which is so hard to believe. Time sure flies.
I had a real traumatic delivery but we're fine thankfully. And its been super challenging adjusting to everything but we are. Never going to get used to the sleep deprivation though and having my schedule completely turned upside down.
We sure love our little girl though!

[sammiwry]

Piebear congrats!!



When I woke up to go the loo during the night I had a few drips before I started peeing and then the same at about 7 when I went to get up for brekkie could feel something leaking onto my pad, it's straw coloured but no smell could it be my waters? It's liquid rather than snotty so I'm sure it's not discharge

 

[Piebear2901]

Thanks everyone!

 

[hopefully2]

Sammi I know lozzy said this before and it was true for me too. When my waters leaked onto the pad they were shiny looking a bit like a snail trail!!
Hope that helps x

What do your waters smell like? I've just had a shower and I checked m underwear as always and notice on the part where my foof goes sorry tmi lol there was a little patch and I smelled it lol I know it wasnt wee cos it wasn't yellowy tinged but it smelled like a weird sort of bleach smell? Like i said not like wee smell but fresh borscht smell...??

Finaly found a santa outfit that fits her.

Aw that is SOOOOO cute, She looks adorable!

Aw I hope your baby comes soon! Too bad FOB missed his chance!

Kerrie - if you get chance hun could ya please pit Alexanders name on the front page?

Ness & Sammi good luck with the sweeps! Failin that go dance nekkid under the full moon lol

Nekkid dancing - in this weather??? - To get her out - absolutely!!

Also a really good piece of advice for all you first time mums out there, when baby is napping during the day don't creep around, whisper, turn the TV down and try to be quiet just carry on as normal and baby will get used to and sleep through the noise and u'll be thankful for it when they get older!

Mind you they do say that the noise of the hoover can help to sooth an antsy baby!

I second this - learnt from my sisters mistake (which she freely admits) with her first who is still at nearly 9 a light sleeper, they were terrified of waking him and literally tip toed round the house and made everyone else do the same. His 4yr old sister who had to sleep through a noisy 4yr old brother amoung other things can sleep through almost anything!

Oh how lovely!! Congratulations Piebear.

Snowing here - quite heavily now - no going out today methinks - have mw tomorrow. But we have moved car onto the flat at the bottom of the road so getting out from there should be okay if we need to.
Good luck Ness and Sammi with the sweeps -Ness easier said than done but the more you consciously relax your muscles the less the discomfort will be. Hope they both go well or we will all be out dancing nekkid in the snow tomorrow night!

So pleased so many of the Mummies are back on!!! Its lovely to see you all and read your experiences - cant wait till we all join you - am betting in my case it wont be till January - honestly -my original due date was 31st so Im thinking I wont have a baby before then - no signs of it.

Ness I have heard that waters smell like bleach - how exciting expecially with the MW coming this morning she should be able to tell you.

Im thinking mine wont come till full labour - same as my sister and my Mums experience.

Ooh really?? OMG I don't wanna get too excited! I haven had a gush just that little trickle but if her head is really low down I suppose it could be stopping them gushing out...?

That's my thinking with mine ness as they've trickled and only do it when info from laying down to sitting up.

Mine smell sweet though

 

[Nessicle]

Hmm why can't we just have a big gush lol!

Mw coming between 11am and 1pm so I'll ask her sure she'll be able to tell anyway gonna drug myself up in 15 minutes ready for the internal....

Shall be asking mine too, haven't had any leaks since I'm now watching tv so may be that his head is stopping it. So confusing

We have extremely light snow fall again

Its been fairly easy, she sleeps inbetween feeds and if shes not asleep shes quite happy to sit in her chair looking at the xmas lights. Dont worry about the place being spotless, aslong as is presentable i dont care lol

Ooh really?? OMG I don't wanna get too excited! I haven had a gush just that little trickle but if her head is really low down I suppose it could be stopping them gushing out...?

I never had a big gush, considering mine went 2 days before i had her the rest shot out after her. Their heads can act like a plug.

Your waters are shiny and have a silky consistancy, kida like a durex lube lol

 

[sammiwry]

Hmm sounds promising then from how you describe it lozzy! Just don't want to get my hopes up
