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

Awww charlotte, sorry about the sweep but TBH you're probably right and it's best you don't get one just incase bubs catches anything. The 17th really isn't long away, it will be here before you know and it and FX you won't even need it Soooo glad bubs has turned the right way for you... bet you're well chuffed with that

With the induction just make sure you push for as close to the 20th as possible, that's what I'm going to do.... any later and if it ends up taking a couple of days or either of us end up needing a section then we will probably be there xmas day or xmas eve at the least

I'm seriously tempted to refuse my sweep on friday, really not sure I want it just yet but I still have a day to decide.

It is bloody tiring breastfeeding...but i think its worth it
It hurt so bad i cryed yesterday
Im not sure i could have another baby...don't know how people cope!

 

[Kerrieann]

Thats crap she wouldnt sweep you but great news that hes turned now Should make for a easier birth I dont think you will get to 41 weeks anyway hun x

Yes she may have done it if i had asked her but it didnt work with Bradley anyway and if there not ready it wont do anything si i suppose waiting will be best for me
I really dont think it will come to a induction fingers crossed and if it does then like you say i will really have to push!
I am over the moon zoe about him turning i know its not important and obviously i could still labour naturally anyway but i hated the idea of it being more likely for intervention ect.

Chloe i used to cry everytime i breastfed jake for nearly 2 weeks ru using creams? have you got nipple shields? Also i know its a stupid question but ru sure he is in the right position? i used to find if i dislatched him and re-positioned him sometimes it eased up, hope it gets better for you soon hun, ur doing a great job

It may seem like that now but a year down the line and your watching them grow up soo quickly, you wont be able to help but want more!!

Kerrie i didnt think you would get to 41 weeks either so your not giving me much hope

Anyone who manages to push through the pain of breastfeeding at the beginning is a saint if you ask me... not sure I'm going to be able to do it but I'll give it a good shot

Charlotte your bubs will be here before the 20th anyway in my opinion, don't see you going too far. I would say I feel about 95% certain I will need inducing. No signs of labour, pretty much pain free and comfortable, no pressure... so I'd say he is definately comfy in there and holding on with both hands

or maybe you just cope so well with pregnancy lol
I havent had many symptoms either really apart from pressure but that means naff all anyway!

 

[ducky1502]

Cope well?! You must be joking I'm the first one to cry when I stub my toe!

 

[GoogilyBear]

erm girls... i went for a wee.. and suddenly it just stopped but i needed to go still but nothing would come.. so i got up and now i have the most dreadfull pains down in my area and blader under bump and sometimes goes up into my bump... had them for about 30mins now... dont know what it is :s

 

[sammiwry]

Meeley I'm now living near Fleet Hampshire but was living near Woking. where abouts are you?

Awww Charlotte your right though perhaps its for the best what with the thrush, glad it went ok otherwise.

 

[mummyclo]

It doesn't hurt the whole time he is feeding...just for the first few mins! But that is more than enough! Worse than bloody labour!!

 

[YoungNImum]

Googily maybe youv gotten a chill, Ino a friend of mine always used to get it, an she would go to loo every 20-30 mins but went altho it felt like she still needed to pee she couldnt she said she used to have a sharp pain down in pubic area but it used to pass after a while.

 

[YoungNImum]

I feel bad sometimes because i dont wont to breast feed, but bottle feeding appeals to me much more.

i dunno, i am sick of getting infections. ive had this pain tho since around 5 to 6 and im still getting mild ones now. i dont want a repeat of last nights pains.. although it looks like it might be heading that way

 

[Nessicle]

I asked my midwife about an early sweep and she said they won't do it before 40 weeks regardless of how uncomfy you are otherwise I'd have had one before now lol

I have just been in absolute agony with Ava mega grinding her head I was screaming out in pain poor OH didn't know what to do! I think she was turning her back further to the front rather than sideways on as it doesn't hurt now thank god!!

Meeley most of us are in agony most days so have no choice but to stay housebound all day lol anyone who can walk longer than 15 mins at this stage deserves a medal lol!

Could be bubs head causing pressure and pain Googily

Chloe did you get some nipple shields? I've bought some Medela ones from mothercare

 

[lozzy21]

Charlotte she is going on the boob some of the time but i think cos she was being formula fed in special care when my milk came in my supply never got up and with her loosing a lot of weight i dident want to stop the formula as they were saying if she dident start to gain she might need to be re-admited but now shes past her birth weight im not to stressed about her feeding.

During the night OH has got up to feed her a few times but unless he sets an alarm he dosent wake up untill shes screeming where as i wake up as soon as she startes to stir so i might as well get up with her.

Chloe the BF consultant said if it hurts longer than a count to 10 then take them of and see of they can get a better latch.

possibly.. but its really starting to go into my back and things like it did last night. more false labour it looks like.. either that or its going to turn into something more promising.
hopefully its just pressure and bum,py making that last move...

gunna get OH to reach cervox if he can.. but then again maybe not lol

Butterfly honey it's only natural you're feeling the way you do I think you're amazingly strong! Nothing will replace Mollie and Rosie will have double the amount of love cos of what you went through she's even more precious than any of us can imagine. Don't worry yourself on top of everything about Rosie picking up on negativity - with all the upset and hormones we pregnant women go through all babies would be depressed for life if that was the case you're allowed to have off days especially with what you went through xxxxx

Thanks hun

I already lost loads of my plug which was clear at the weekend, could it be a show? or does that have to be pink/red rather than brown?

yay Kerrie - it sounds like a show!!! Definitely won't be long for you.

Charlotte - sorry you didn't get your sweep hun. Keep positive and I'm sure your LO will come soon without any intervention especially as lying in the correct position
