Hi girls,
I texted Donna last night and she's fine, just knackered, so isn't getting on here that much. I'm sure she'll let us know the minute there's any news. Must be hard going carrying baby to term, especially with another one to look after. Hopefully something we'll all get to experience too

 

[bumpsmum]

not too much longer for you also Bec......................... you 2 are making us all green with envy and SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO broody x

 

[Bec L]

Ha ha, I just hope I get as far as Donna has xx

 

[bumpsmum]

Was thinking about Donna and BecL the other day wondering how they are getting on! Great to hear both are well!

Hi ladies

Im touched by the messages of support-thank you so much! Hit 39 weeks today so the countdown is officially on! Been losing teeny bits of my plug recently but nothing to shout about unfortunatly.

Im still under the consultant and classed as high risk, so been having CTG's twice a week and a growth scan weekly now. everything has been grand so far though,and baby is growing steadily which is just amazing. They think s/he weighs around 6.5lb 2weeks ago which is slightly Im not sure how accurate these things are but we'll soon find out eh

Never in my WILDEST dreams did I think I would get this far when I first found out I was pregnant. Every single day I wake up and I can feel bump moving I literally count my blessings-healthy little girl and a brand new baby who is baking nicely I promise Ill let you ladies know as soon as I pop...Bec is my text buddy so Ill let her know when something happens and she can update for me when she gets a sec.

BecL, you're doing so well too-hang in there, I hope things go as smoothly for you as it has for me.

Lots of love ladies, and thanks again for thinking of us xx

Just a quick update to let you all know that Donna's water broke late last night and she is on the labour ward now Probably still a long way to go yet but will update you when I know more.

Good luck Donna!!!

 

[Foogirl]

Hurrah!!!!

 

[Bec L]

False alarm! Donna's heading back home for now. Fingers crossed things will start happening soon xx

 

[bumpsmum]

woo hoo got all excited there! Not had time at all lately so not really been on but a quick 2 sec check to see if she has started is a must! off next week so planning on a good catch up on here if Matthew lets me.

Good luck Donna hope labour is a good experience for you xx

Oh I have only just seen this!!
Have they given her antibiotics then if her waters have gone?? x

 

[Bec L]

Oh I have only just seen this!!
Have they given her antibiotics then if her waters have gone?? x

Think it was just her hind waters. Not sure if that makes a difference?

 

[DonnaBallona]

Im still here people!!

Thanks so much for updating for me Bec, muchly appreciated! It was a false alarm, as Bec said- We went down to the labour ward late on Tuesday night with reduced fetal movements-they examined me and told me that my waters had broken! I was slightly confused as I hadnt noticed...anyway, cut a long story short, I was kept in overnight for observation and given a CTG every 2 hours. then, finally, got examined AGAIN by someone different who told me that they hadnt broken! I did think it was a bit odd I hadnt noticed a MASSIVE gush of water

So, Im due TODAY! we made it!!!

Im going into the Fetal Assessment Unit at 1pm this afternoon to be examined again as they want to see if they can break my waters for me...baby is fully engaged and ready to go apparently. Im not holding out much hope though-otherwise I get given my date for my section as Im only allowed to go a week over. The countdown is on!

If I end up staying, Ill update BecL again and she can continue with the fabulous updating for me when she gets a sec if ok?

Thanks for thinking of us ladies-you will be the first to know when something happens!

Hope baby comes soon for you hun and congratulations on getting to 40 weeks!!! xx
