end of april due dates updated with list

[Smanderson]

LOL Jenny that happens to me sometimes, especially if i had the page open for a bit whilst pottering about...whoops i really hope you dont have any complications this time hun and your bladder behaves but i agree its better to plan for the 5 days just in case you need the extra time

Bless your mum thats really sweet of her funny how we never grow out of needing our mums isnt it Im sure he will do great my hubby will make a nice mess at home for me im sure LOL although he is very good at cleaning when it suits him so who knows

Aww Feff im sorry bubs wasnt playing ball today hun midwifes can be super annoying and thats a bit naughty she never wrote anything down dont feel down hun try and take her "getting there" comment as a positive sign, it probably means bubs is engaging but not fully engaged

Im with you though, im sick of feeling crap and uncomfortable and being in pain basically ALL the time i would very much love the bambino to arrive now but Jenny is right, we just gotta be patient for a couple more weeks and they will be here im sure you wont need to be induced hun, but if you do dont worry about it, we will be in the same club xxxx

 

[Feff]

Ah Jenny I'm just the most impatient person ever I just really really want to have the baby now!

I hope so Smanderson I wish she would explain things better, she's my assigned midwife and it's only about the 3rd time I've seen her since I fell pregnant! I always see others

My ribs have been in agony all day again, my belly and back hasn't been hurting today even though I'm willing them too so I can imagine something's happening without feeling crazy! yeah I know, I just feel like I'm going to be pregnant all my life now it's nice to be able go vent on here without people thinking I'm crazy! xxx

 

[Jenny_J]

Fingers crossed everything will go smoothly, but this bladder is a git lol, so I won't hold my breath.

Yeah she is a good'en, she is always there when I really need her.

You have the same due date as me Feff. I can't wait too, but on the other hand I can, lol, if that makes any sense.

 

[Smanderson]

Sorry ladies, im feeling very sorry for myself tonight

[Smanderson]

Ohhhh hurry up and come out baby!!!

 

[Feff]

Charmed don't get too excited about being full term I've been for 2 days and I feel so depressed now lol! Wow sounds like you've been keeping yourself busy, that's good I'm feeling okay today thanks, was really sore last night with period like cramping and really sore ribs my ribs woke me up this morning for ages because they were hurting so bad! Belly pains stopped today though I hate getting excited over every little twinge haha! How are you feeling?

Oh Smanderson hope you feel better now did you phone the DAU after? I've heard some people feel crappy before labour so perhaps that's what it could be? Xx

 

[Jenny_J]

Yeah best to call if your at all worried smanderson, I hole you feel better soon hun.

Taking the kids to my hoslital appointment was not fun. My son can be such an ass.

On a lighter note baby is 7lb 6 now. And my urine and bp was all good.

 

[Smanderson]

Thanks Feff im feeling a lot better this afternoon i dunno what has been up with me, its weird and seems to have passed...phew! although i wouldnt have minded if it was the start of labor LOL

Thanks Jenny i never called them in the end glad to feel a bit more like my normal self how did your scan go? Thats a great weight

 

[Jenny_J]

Yeh was good. Can't believe that was my last hospital appointment till my pre op, the day before the section. Im counting down the days lol. Im going to ask hubby to charge my ipod, I may need to listen to some Ajhan Brahm beore I go in, just to calm my breathing, im a massive wuss lol.

Im back!! Finally! The op was a sucess you wouldn't believe Little Man was in surgary yesterday morning if you saw him today, the biggest problem now is trying to keep him still so his body and his wounds have time to heal! He was so brave he's had to have constant observation checking temp blood pressure etc, he's had x-rays echos and ecg's and the only time he cried is when they had to take blood (and I don't blame him, I still cry at the sight of needles!) he walked down to the theatre like it was a big adventure!!! My MIL was a mess whilst he was under, luckily I managed to hold it together until he came back on the ward, I had to stay strong for her, but the minute he was back and we knew he was ok the mix of worry reliefe and hormones took over and I just broke down. But its all over and done with now so I can relax!
Still no baby, shes hanging on in there (quite literally it feels like) I've still got alot of heavy discharge sometimes with a bit of blood and the pressure down below is geting unbarable (probably not helped by the traveling and uncomfortable hosp chairs) so Im hoping shes gearing up ready to come meet us, although it would be nice to get a few days rest first!
Reading through I see no-one has popped yet but hopefully not too much longer for any of us now. I guess were all in the same boat I've lost count of the "ooh is this is?" twinges lol

 

[Feff]

Wow that's a great weight Jenny glad LO is doing well I'm jealous you know the exact day!! ooh I bet you're so excited

I'm glad your feeling better Smanderson I think it's just everything piling up just being in pain and uncomfortable and wanting to meet LO! Not long now, a few weeks at most and then you'll be a mammy for the rest of your life

I'm glad your nephews op went well princess! Wow he sounds so brave bless him I bet you were all worried, it's good he's on the mend now though! You're sounding close then, closer than us lot who are hanging onto any sort of sign at all every twinge I have I'm thinking 'omg is this it?!' But it never is hopefully not long for us all!

 

[charmed]

Glad all u ladies ok! Just excited as wanna make full term as wanna know baby has best chances and can use better services at hosiptal! One more day princess! All cuddled up watchin tv whilst hub at pub! X

 

[Smanderson]

Ajahn Brahm is a Buddhist monk, he does some pod casts and you tube video lectures on Buddhist subjects, I love him, he is so funny lol, and listening to him always makes me happy. Yep I cant wait to be in the recovery room having snuggles and breast feeding her
