February 2013 Love Bugs

[Wiggler]

Oooh a child free weekend sounds bliss! And the perfect chance for your little man to come along!

They are spacing out again now

 

[embo216]

Do you have a birthing ball hun?

 

[BeccaxBump]

I'm going to mop my floor, see what happens .

[Wiggler]

Yea, on the ball now. Doing rotations seems to be helping, but it hurts my pelvis so much! Everything hurts my pelvis lately I have to pee so much today, getting up every 5 mins isn't fun

Oooh Becca, got my fingers crossed

 

[Midnight_Fairy]

Hope so sasha xxxx

 

[BeccaxBump]

Haha, Wiggler, pretty sure you live on that ball now!
xoxox

Grr the last few have all been 3-4 mins apart, still not really sore, but they can't be BH's, they have been here all day and they would have stopped with all the different stuff I have been doing.

What on earth is my body doing?!

Mine were like that. I got frustrated and lay down for a while and suddenly they got intense, but farther apart. However, even though farther apart they must have suddenly been doing something. I was also thinking my little man might just have been in a non-ideal position, so laying down might have allowed him to shift just enough that things finally got rolling.

Super congrats on your boy mrsswaffer

I've just hoovered and mopped. Also scrubbed my sofa's good and proper! C'mon Lily, get out.

I have been asleep all afternoon with LO It was wonderful! My OH is stuck in a traffic jam on the motorway so wont be home for ages yet

Im completely lost...who is in labour now then?? Cherry? Gf lady? Tnt? Ayone else? Wiggler is having pains? Becca is having a few back aches? Sure I am missing someone?

 

[Wiggler]

Oooh love afternoon naps with the kids I hope the traffic clears so your OH can be home soon

The last 2-3 were actually sore I still don't think that this is it, but it's progress!!!

 

[BeccaxBump]

Gf had that loss of plug yesterday, have we heard anything since?

Cherry, her waters were being broken, right? Fx'd it happens soon for her!

Wiggler is bouncing on her ball like a mad woman .

And I'm in what L&D think is slow labour, my mum slow laboured with me, so maybe I'm mirroring her.

Glad you got some sleep, Smiley .

hi girls!

Whitten Davis born 9:21pm 2.13.13 14 hrs of labor, 54 min of pushing, 8lbs 12 oz , 21 inches long!!

He's perfect
got induced starting about 5:30am
was 3cm and 75% effaced when they started the pitocin
broke water 7am
wow, contractions every 2 min right way got to 4cm and asked for epideral as was getting sick with pain
feeling numb and awesome
4-6 we stalled out a bit - had to turn up the pitocin
once we got up to 7 we made progress quickly
got very sick and threw up 3 times - shaking the whole time
finally got to push at 830pm - got a light fever, had to push past part of the cervix and baby's heart rate shot up
aftraid of an emergency csection but the nurses rocked and were able to help me push past the cervix
pushed well needed to get him out quickly as dr was concerned about hr so had to have a vacumme and 2nd degree episiotomy
got him out.
God hes huge! Giant giant baby.
He's perfect and just fine. got him to latch on a couple times so hoping he gets the hang of it.
i am good - super sore and stiched up
Dh being so great.

congrats to mrswaffer and the others who had babies! Congrats to those in labor! Hugs to those over due! so sorry i am trying to get caught up!!

 

[Wiggler]

Congratulations tnt!!!!

 

[Miss Ashley]

Congrats!!!!

 

[smileyfaces]

Congrats tnt!!! Was just thinking about you a few minutes ago, how strange! Glad you have your little boy! 8lb 12oz wowee!

 

[PerpetualMama]

Congrats TNT!


Wiggler, can you get on your hands and knees and be able to get back up? Do you know which way baby is laying? If baby is posterior all the contractions might be body's way of trying to put baby into proper position.

Babydreams Try getting on all 4's for a while, crawl around, rest on a birthing ball etc get that LO to turn then you can progress!

Mine is posterior, trying to get her to turn currently. My due date is today, but I'm already done with the depression that I'll be overdue and banking on having her sometime by next Tuesday, but definitely not today. Got a "hot date" with DS 6 this evening (and he don't even know it yet ). I'm taking him to rent a movie I pinky promised we'd get this week, then I plan on snugglng up with my little man, and probably DH and enjoying my evening. But it's not even lunch time yet so...I have a test to study for and take now.
to all of you!

 

[Kitty_love]

Congratulations, TN! Thanks for sharing your birth story, and Wow, he sure is a big boy!

Congrats, MrsS!!!

Hope things keep progressing for you Babydreams, Wiggler, and Becca! Fingers crossed!

Hugs, Rem, so sorry about your fil.

 

[BeccaxBump]

Congrats TNT! Yay!

I'm going to have dinner then try all fours for a bit, I'll even be productive and scrub the kitchen floor at the same time I don't think she is posterior, but I am almost certain she is in a less than ideal position.
