**February Babies**

Not sure exactly but i think its got something to do with melted chocolate in nappies...
 
Yep. She melted chocolate in a bunch of diapers and we had to guess what was in each one. I didn't even look inside. I just passed them on the next person and wrote down a random chocolate bar on my paper. And I still got 4 right! ahah.
 
Haha lucky guess! Though shame it uses two of the most expensive items...
 
worked things out with OH now, had a really long talk and spent the entire weekend together and were good again, thank god. didnt need the stress, hes just really nervous and got really self concious atm, i thought they say us girl are bad at putting ourselves down, not sure why and where it all came from but we got through it.. and think im loosing my plug tmi.. rang my midwife and from what i explained she thinks i am too but she said could be a few weeks off yet... as much as i want him here now, id rather wait the extra week and he be full term! but hes definately getting ready i think!! xxx
 
Glad you got everything sorted :)

Does anyone know how engaged their baby was at their last appointment? Mine was 1/5th engaged :happydance: Midwife wrote 4/5ths in my notes though so she must write whats still palpable rather than whats engaged.
 
i want to find out this, she didnt write anything like that, she left the engaged bit blank but hes ceph, so hes heading the right way and i think hes dropped so hopefully hes a little engaged now. im guessing because she elft it blank that means hes not engaged though, was 3 weeks ago now.. do you know if and when they check for dialation? or do you think my midwife will check me now im loosing my plug.. and do they test in the uk for strep b as my midwifes not mentioned it and i want to be checked to be on the safe side especially with loosing my plug xxx
 
They don't usually check for dilation in the uk until you go into labour :) and group b strep isn't a routine test so you don't get it on the NHS, I think you can pay for a private test though :)

Sorry to gatecrash feb babies.. January babies is so quiet now :(
 
Group B strep testing is standard in texas. I also get checked for dilation every week starting next monday (at my 36 week appt).

Does anyone else have a numb bump? I have a few numb patches, and some patches where it itches, but when I scratch it burns!!!
 
Hey Ladies how are you all feeling? its almost our turn :S not sure if im excited or scared because I know whats coming .
 
my baby still hasnt dropped, the doc said hopefully by my next week appointment she will be. how do u know if you lose your plug?lol, feel stupid but i guess i am lol
 
Going to the specialist today, they said they'll induce today if my BP is really bad, and they arent going to keep him in longer than this week if they have something to do with it
 
Ohh good luck Melissa!

Im not sure about plug either.. Last week i had a weird blob of jelly like stuff but nothing since so i just passed it off as weird discharge...

We're all getting pretty close now :)
 
its the blob of weird jelly stuff but i had loads of it with a little pink blood in it but spoke to midwife and she said its my plug and it could be weeks yet but things are preparing :) bubs is been very active over the past 24 hours bless him! i put my hand on my bump and it felt like he was trying to curl up in it :) im so ready for him to be here now! but i know its gonna be up to him when he wants to come! OH is being really sweet and getting all excited now! xxxx
 
He doesnt think ill be able to deliver naturally, his head is to big and isnt engaging :(
I dont want a c section
I was sent in for pre e and high bp, nd he said hes much more worried about the size of baby, and thinks if he tried to induce today it would cause problems. they did a whole bunch of tests told me to come back monday and we will try something then . today my cervix he said was unfavorable.
 
is anyone else getting scared of labour?its only starting to hit me now..i dont wanna feel pain!:'(..i know its worth it but i just cant

Trust me on this one it is the worst pain you will ever feel BUT it is worth it. just try and listen to the doctors when they say push push , when they say stop stop . I listened to them and I didnt even tear with my daughter. The contractions are the worst Part for sure Im dreading them the pushing its self Not even half as bad
 
i was scared of labour until i decided whats the point, its inevitable now, its going to be so worth it! like they say no pain no gain! just try to relax about it hun and look up hypno birthing too.. its relaxation techniques are really good. dont get too nervous though hun! it will be okay, you should try watching natural birth videos, they have them on baby centre and some on youtube xxxx
 
I hope things go ok on monday Melissa!

Im not scared of labour anymore i think due to the kidney stones a couple of weeks ago. The doctors told me its the closest pain to labour and i did fine! So i HOPE things go as well when the time comes.
 
I'm not afraid of labour at all. Hmmm.

Baby still not dropped yet =/ midwife just said it might not happen til I'm in labour sigh
