February Lovebugs of 2016!! 16 pink, 15 blue, 7 yellow

Hi ladies, haven't posted here in awhile but still lurk pretty often...my lo was born at 3:34 this morning, 12 days early! Emily Grey is 7 lbs 3 oz and 19.5 inches long. She is a DREAM!
 
Awww... Congratulations, Writing! Emily Grey is a lovely name! :flower:
 
Ooh, congrats on all the lovely new babies!! :) Hope all the mothers and babies are well. My next door neighbour had a baby girl today too (we originally had the same due date by LMP but they changed us both after our dating scans). It all feels very very real now!

I'm booked to go in at 7am Monday the 8th for my section, si just counting down the days now. Still lots of BH and very heavy/low feeling baby so I'm not convinced I'll make it to Monday (I'll be 39+3). Although she's managed to unplug her head after having been 2/5ths engaged; her big sister did the same thing - how is that even possible? - and is now regularly headbutting me in the pubic bone I guess trying to get back in position? Ouch.
 
Congrats ladies! Team yellow is now team blue here: introducing Dorian Michael, born today at 7:40 pm. 8 lbs, 1 oz, 21 1/2" long with an active labor of 2 hours! We are so blessed.

Congratulations dustergrl! Look at that beautiful little face!!!
 
Congrats writing and duster girl

I had my internal yesterday. Cervix is favourable, she said it just needs to thin a little bit more and I'm nearly 2cm dilated already. All going well my induction is a week today. I'm hoping to go into labour myself as it's my last pregnancy, my last two babies were induced. I'd love to just go naturally myself
 
Congrats duster! So handsome :)
So exciting seeing all the babies start coming!!
 
Well gumb, I was at 2cm and 50% the day before I gave birth! I was at 39+1.
 
He's beautiful dustergrl :cloud9:

AFM, after getting lots of tightenings every 3-5 mins the other night I've had nothing since! Doc thinks it was just false labour :dohh: I had a growth scan yesterday to check on little man after his second episode of reduced movement and everything is fine, he's a big boy though... approx 9lbs 1oz at 38 weeks. Awesome! :wacko: It did make me really nervous when I first heard it yesterday but I've relaxed a bit now. I do seem to have hit the wall though, mentally I mean. I was ready for it to be over when I thought labour was starting on Monday night so the fact that I feel perfectly normal two days later has left me feeling deflated :shrug:
 
Wow! I guess it's to be expected to start having all these announcements!! But it still feels like a shock every time someone announces their fab rusty Lovebug is here :happydance:
16 days to go and still feels surreal! I go from being super ecstatic to super nervous!
 
Thanks dustergrl. Small bit crampy but nothing. Going for a walk in a while. I've been doing 2-2.5 miles every day so I'm hoping it's preparing me. I'm freaking out about labour now. My last one was a dream. They broke my waters,pains coming. I went to labour room to get checked as feeling loads of pressure and he was born 5 minutes later. I'm afraid it won't be the same this time. The labour hadn't bothered me till I saw a woman puffing and moaning in the hospital corridor yesterday 😞
 
My first was a long labour, second three hours.
 
Noralie Harper Ellis arrived February 1, 2016 at 8:36am weighing 7lbs 4oz and 19.8in long.

Photos to follow because my phone and BnB don't like each other
 
Congrats Brandi and Duster!!! Love hearing about all these birth announcements but I am getting anxious to have my own. :kiss: :kiss:
I have been getting some painful hard BH much more intense than usual but stll infrequent. AF like cramping (none today though, :happydance:) and some serious pressure that could only be Zodi's head pushing on my cervix into the birth canal. Feels like I'm going to push the bugger out every time I go wee!
 
Congrats, ladies!!!!

What a precious pic, Brandi!!! and she really looks like your profile pic / ultrasound!!!

soo exciting!!! But getting nervous at the same time!!!!!:happydance:
