Courtney he was 9lb 12 when he was born! So kind of explains the ventouse to deliver him!

 

[Nessicle]

Midwife coming in next half hour I'm scared for some reason!!!

Felt a bit crampy on and off but nothing to write home about!

Mizze it's raining here too - now ivemgotmm sisters shoes I can get something on my feet and might brave a walk after my sweep try and get something gong but in feel pretty rotten myself

Wow he was a big baby then, well done

 

[sammiwry]

Thanks Courtney! He certainly proves the theory of my birth weight added to dhs halfed is a good guide for size of first baby!

Ness fingers crossed for you!!

Morning girls
Just for any of you breastfeeding, do any of you have way too much milk?
I just can't control mine, itssuirting Juliette in the face, I'm wetting the bed, I had to change my pjs three times theother night and that's with lilypad and normal breast pads on. I know it's better than too little but I can only wear black in public to disguise any leaks!!!

Me as soon as my bra is off milk floods out, it doesn't spray but there is a a steady stream, I have to tuck a bib in the bottom so it doesn't get on my clothes. When I have the letdown it can easily leak through 2 breast pads, bra, t-shirt and jumper! I am wearing all black whenever I go out xx

 

[Tierney]

ooh Mizze I hope you dont come down with this, I'd start to take some honey and lemon now to prevent it it's awful, its raining here too looks miserable outside.

Hope it went well Ness, yeh a walk after might be a good thing you never know.

Sammi I'd not heard that theory on the birth weight before, that would mean mine will be about 8lbs 9 when born I was guessing around 8-9lbs aswell, will see in no more than 11 days max! Hope you and little Madden are ok x

Midwife just been! Sweep done she gave my cervix a good going over which was painful! Still posterior, still only 1cm she's booked me in for another sweep on Thursday but not booked me in for induction as she said the earliest she can book me in is Sunday so instead if this sweep isn't successful she said to go to the hospital on weds and really play on how awful I feel and the swelling in my feet etc and they should keep me in and get things going but hopefully I won't need that. I'm so gutted I really hope this sweep works xx

I really hope this sweep works for you - before I was properly induced I was given a sweep and even though I was only 1cm and my cervix was rock hard and really postierior my waters broke 12 hours after the sweep and things got moving - so there is hope!

 

[Pixxie]

Hope this one works for you ness xx

 

[Nessicle]

Thank you me too I'm so fed up now x

 

[YoungNImum]

BIG Ness, lets hope this works - at least she gave you a plan for Wednesday if nothing happens!

Tierney hope you feel better - we had a couple of hours at the shops and im knackered now. Didnt buy anything - sales were crap. But we have seen a nice bouncer in Argos we might get. - At least it got me out and about for a couple of hours which is good. Feel V tired but nothing else.

If the theory on weight is right LO would be just under 7lbs! - Sounds okay to me and would correspond with FH measurements actually.

I already scared of changing and clothing her incase I 'break' her - nice Im not the only one to worry

Mizze x

Have you seen these? They collect the milk so it can be emptyed out and if you steralise them you can poor the milk straight into a bottle.

Niamh dosent fit that theory at all lol, we were both 6lb.

 

[Nessicle]

Thanks courtney i have no choice but to carry on if it were up to me I'd have a section by choice at 37 weeks lol. Can't believe my Xmas baby may be a January Jellybean at this rate if the hospitL refuse induction on weds which they could do, I'd have to wait til Sunday after the New Year to be induced!

 

[mummyclo]

I have some of those shells, and they really do collect a LOT of milk! I was very surprised.

 

[Nessicle]

Where is my baby????!!!!!!!!

So sick of reading about others who have had their babies on the forum who were due after me it's not fair!! seriously can't take it any more I want to scream!!! Sick of everyone saying she's too comfy in my belly - what a crock of shit!!

 

[mrsbling]

Got my fingers crossed for you Ness try and relax (I know its easier said than done when you just want your Lo here with you!!!) as stress is apparently supposed to delay labour (well so they say anyway)
