Samzi -

WTTmommy - I thought about that but some of the March babies have come early!

Katy - I hope things pick up enough for you to be able to stay at the hospital. Huge hugs xx

ugh, had my appointment. Got a sweep done (So painful) she said my cervix is still posterior the baby was at a -2 station though.. bubs is still 3/5ths engaged but she said that was because i have a "bowl" shaped pelvis and bubs wont engage anymore than that until I am in labour. I have another appointment in 7days for another sweep and to book an induction...

Oh well... heres to hoping something happens before next week!

Well........................

I was having contractions through the night up until around 3am - then nothing.

Got up for the loo at 6am, had lost some plug, got back into bed and had another couple of contractions and then nothing again.

Have cleaned the kitchen down, made breakfast for belle, got a cuppa and now sat down working out what im going to go and clean first.

Feel really deflated, was hoping the pain would stay and labour was coming but maybe it was just the excitement of last night afterall. Still, I guess I gotta stay positive. Im fed up being down about everything, so Im going to try and occupy myself with housework today and hope that maybe that will encourage something along if I stay on my feet.

Hope you are all ok today!! xx

Good luck MummyCarly & Tricks after your sweeps. Hope they work for you.

Katy, fingers crossed for you hun, think positive, every pain is a step closer to you holding your baby in your arms

2bananas - yeah for managing to dtd . I am also wanting to clean too, tho am shattered so might just sit here thinking about it & hoping the cleaning fairy does it for me instead . I have just put a load of washing in & need to fill the dishwasher next so hopefully that'll set me off on a cleaning spree.

As for me, well yesterday i had my RLT, had a curry for tea, clary sage oil massage then got some bad pains from about 5pm. Sat on my ball till bedtime, they werent coming regular or anything so went to bed and dtd hoping that would help. Got some tightenings n aches through the night but nothing major and am exactly the same this morning. i swear, nothing is gonna shift this baby

I did however get a call from my m/w at about 5pm yest asking if I was ok as I had missed an appt that morning so am going in this afternoon instead. Might ask her to 'take a look' and see if anything is happening as I am in so much pain with my hips & back & this baby really hurts me when it moves now!

I think the lovebugs must be the most stubborn bunch of babies!

How many of us are overdue now!! or right next to our due date and nothing happening! Seems like loads!

 

[Caz-x]

All of us???? Sure seems like it Here I am complaining when I technically have a few more days to go, but I swear I have been pregnant for EVER!!!!! Feel like a complete frump, and have no energy for my lil man so feel like a bad mummy too, bless him.

Yeah I know what you mean!!!

Poor Belle, its half term and im really trying to be interested in all the wonderful conversation a 5 year old has to offer but its hard work and have to admit, I just want some peace and quiet!!!!! Feel guilty.

She's being good though - she just DOES NOT STOP TALKING !!!!

Going to get her to hoover in a sec - she loves it! ha ha ha (really she does, im not forcing her)

Then will make pancakes as a reward

 

[Caz-x]

Go on admint it, you're bribing her with pancakes aren't you - you must be it's shrove tuesday hehehe.

Kaden loves cleaning too, he helps me mop, n sweep n everything, sooo cute x

 

[teal]

Pancakes sound like a good bribe!

I'm really wanting lucozade for some reason. I can't stop thinking about it!

 

[2bananas]

Going to have pancakes for lunch - with loadsa syrup lol!!!!

so naughty! - nothing like promoting a healthy diet lol

 

[vinnypeanut]

Seems some of these lovebugs were on a quest last night to tease mommas!!!!
I was so sure i was in early labour....started with really strong bhs that were coming every 10 minutes lasting around 40seconds. They were so frequent for about 2 hours, went for a fast walk and was still having them, they started getting stronger and very uncomfortable so i headed to bed to get some rest and they stopped

Absolutely devastated!!

I think this is where I went wrong! Going to bed instead of staying stood up swaying my hips.

tempted to have another go at DTD tonight but not sure I can do it again, pretty tender today!

 

[vinnypeanut]

I know afterwards i thought dammit should of stayed on my ball!
But i just thought if i went to bed i'd wake up in labour and at least I would of had some sleep!
WRONG!!

 

[ramblinhaggis]

I dont know if movement matters all that much...I was in bed with all of mine when labour started! In fact with my son, I was watching bill and teds excellent adventure in bed, then all of a sudden I realised I had started having contractions! I think my body must see my bed as the nest lol.

 

[vinnypeanut]

Ramblin i suppose i thought if I was actually going to go into labour my body would do it regardless of wether I was bouncing on my ball or in bed!
Im just so fed up and everyone announcing theyre in labour or just had their babies is really getting me down

[teal]

VP - I'm starting to feel a bit like that when I see all the labour/birth announcements. Sometimes I think I have a cheek since I'm not due for another week yet but it's hard not to feel down about it. xx
