Yeah ducky it is. I had a bloody show which is slightly different - but the same thing if that makes sense! Matilda had her back to my side but moved into the correct position as she was descending.

June 8 seems ages to go!

Hope things are continuing to improve zf. I went to our 'breast friends' group today. Asked a couple of questions. Matilda had 4oz this morning and was still hungry. I was worried it was too much but mw said all is good. She gets weighed tomorrow so we shall see.

I am about ready to stop expressing now too. It is jut too time consuming on top of feeding formula. Although it means I get to make OH run after me. He is having far too much of an easy time!
 
That sounds promising Ducky! FX it is starting for you.

I might be able to get an induction but it depends on the consultant because not all will carry it out for a VBAC due to the increased risks of uterine rupture. The MW thinks I might be offered a sweep on Wednesday first.

Keeping everything crossed you're able to get the birth you want Omi! Must be so frustrating for you.
 
Yeah just like snot! ... Iv been losing loads over about a week...

Think baby's moved even lower, when I walk I swear I can fill him down so low.

At this rate I'm having a June baby!

Lol yeah dh is running around for me too. :)
Hv came today, she seems to think our latch is good but was mucking about with our positioning so now I'm a bit confused.
Louis seemed to be bfing all day today and he kept coming off and screaming. It was getting quite frustrating and as I hadn't pumped yet today as I was feeding him all the time I gave in and gave him a bottle :(
He had about 60mls and has gone to sleep. Guess he just wasnt able to get enough from me but I'm so tired and was in need of time for me ( just to be able to pee if nothing else :haha: )
I'm hoping to stop pumping now and just put him on everytime he's hungry. I'm hoping we will just click and he will feed properly. If not I can always top him off with the formula. Not ideal but as long as he's fed.
I'm sure I'm making more milk than I was although I'm not sure if it's enough yet. Louis had so much milk to drink last night it was coming out of his nose :haha:
I'm glad Matilda is doing better. A good appetite will help her grow :)
How did you find the group? It was a bit weird at first being around lots of strangers whilst breast feeding. Think it will take time to get used to it. I was the only one trying to cover up. Everyone else was just sitting around with their boobs out. Kinda odd!
 
It was only me, the support worker and the two midwives. I got to ask a couple of questions and get out of the house so it was good. It sounds like you are doing the right thing by Louis. It made such a inference to Matilda when I gave her a bottle. She was much happier. She was weighed today and has gained 7oz in 3 days. Mw was very pleased. Still not up to her birth weight but she will be weighed again on Tuesday and then I will be signed over to the health visitor. I love the support of my midwives. Gutted to be losing them.

CLH and little ducky - i Don't think you will be waiting much longer.

Omi what are the stats on uterine rupture?
 
ZFbaby and passion, I am glad things are running more smoothly now.

The statistics if you go into natural labour are not bad at all, between 1-2% (depending on the research) and that includes everything from full rupture to a very slight thinning of the scar. I can't remember what they are with adding intervention but know they go up a fair bit with induction. I think they are going to try a sweep before induction but I really want it to start naturally or from a sweep.

At this rate the rest of us will be June now since there is only 3 hours left of May! I am thinking it will be between the 6th-8th for me. DH won't end up with much time with DS2 before his paternity leave is done at this rate though.
 
Midwifes called today, if I haven't gave birth by thur I have to ring between 9-9.30 on thur and they will see how busy they are, if there not busy il go in to be introduced, if they are busy il have to ring next day and so on, if I haven't given birth by next sat n they have no space for me to be introduced I have to go in for a full fetal check n there make sure he's ok ...

I got another midwife app on mon so fx!

It's all June baby's for us now!
 
well ladies after 6 days of pre labor my waters broke last night at 8 pm. got the call to be induced at 9 but I didn't need it. My beautiful baby girl was born vaginally using only nitrous oxide for transition at 1022 am after SIX hours of pushing due to posterior position!!! she weighed 8 lbs 11 Oz. :D
 
Oh yay babyface! Congratulations!!! What's her name??? Xxx
 
Congratulations!! Another 8lber lol
can't wait to see pics xx
 
I totally missed the weight on prev post...

I'm defo having a 8lb baby! ... Thought if I only got to 40 weeks he might been high 7/ low 8 but defo think its 8 now as feel bigger
 
Can't believe how big I was measuring and Marlee was 8lb 15 yet all the other ladies were measuring normal and still had 8lb odd babies! defo goes to show that measuring is a load of rubbish!
Good luck CLH hopefully baby comes soon x
 
Congrats BF!!

So no May baby for me, June is now here and I'm 4 days late. How depressing!
God I hope he comes soon!!
