Yeah have everything ready. I'll take my bag along in the car tomorrow just in case they keep me in, too be honest though I could really do without going through surgery right now, not sure how I would cope. I just feel so ill.
My scan on Thurs was supposed to be my last scan at 36 weeks but now have to go back tomorrow, so I'm not sure Hun. Are you being induced at 38 weeks?
Hopefully cold will clear up quickly.
Impressed when you say 'bag' and not 'bag(s)'I can never pack light.
Have you had c-sec before?
Hope all goes well tomorrow.
I'm kind of being induced (hopefully at 38+4). I had a c-section last year so they can't use drugs on me but will use a cathether to manually open my cervix and then try break waters and hopefully that will put me in labour - if not its straight for a repeat c-section. They hope to take me in on sunday eve for that and if by tues morn I'm not in labour or far enough on it's off for section. I'd like to have go vaginal birth so keeping fingers crossed but I have to be well prepared for the latter. have to say the thought of those surgical stockings in this heat is not a nice thought. I had elepehant legs last time.
Its a big bagwell actually more like a suitcase bag, said to hubby I feel a bit silly walking in with this, it's huge
looks like I'm going on holiday for a week
if only eh!
Yeah I've had 2 previous sections, so they wouldnt of allowed me a vbac anyway, although had baby been the right way round I would have fought tooth and nail to have one, but as it is baby is breech anyway and then with the GD along side, I guess its just easier and safer to go along with the c-section. Wishing you a ton of luck with your vbac though hunknow what you mean about the stockings, I've got elephant legs now

Do they ever let mothers go to 40 weeks with GD? omg I thought it was so funny the way you all were talking about hospital bags being packed. I forgot mine with al of my LO's! I think I'll put mine in the car WEEKS ahead of time, this time
I packed my bag last night....its a small suitcase and I am already thinking its not big enough. I think I am worried in case its like when I had Noah and was in hospital for over a week. Then home one night and back in the next. I keep telling myself that DH is more than capable of bringing in clean clothes but I still worry. I haven't done Finleys bag yet. I have gone through all the baby clothes I had put away from Noah and sorted what is suitable....just have to pack and put the rest away....but there is sooo much lol. The only thing I didn't find was socks but I think they are eaten in this house anyway.
My sugars haven't been to bad lately. Though I did have a hypo yesterday. 2.9. I also keep forgetting to take the levemir at night.....I'm sure thats just habit though and once I get into the habit of doing it i'll be fine.

Sounds like you've got a lot done this weekend. It's a nice feeling getting the bags done, makes it all feel closer and more real. I feel same about packing. i was determined to just pack essentials and let OH bring in stuff but the thought of wanting something in the middle of the night or having the hassle of having to leave notes explaining where stuff is and what to bring in - I've ended up packing way more than intended. I'm a total control freak though![]()
2.9 - is not a nice hypo. I feel rough if I'm in the high 3s so must have been yuk.
Hi girls, just quick one I'm on my phone. Fluid levels back up to normal, bizarre how they can change so quickly. They agree that is was probably positioning of the baby last time. Today's sonographer got fl even higher than last, think Ive lost faith in every sonographer, except today's of course lol. So c section still planned for the 6th with admission on the 5th for sliding scale, consent forms all signed eek!! And Ive been told to visit gp to get some antibiotics to try and clear this congestion. Such a relief I now have 8 days to try and get over it.
PS: oh and apparently baby has lots of hair lol
Good Luck Ladies, u will be holding your babies in no time, so jealous!
My fasting levels this morn were 6.3, highest yest and off course I am to see the doc tomorrow, typical. I left it 5 mins and checked my other hand and it was 5.7! I had been doing so well too and all within range apart from one blip! Do you think the Doc will look at overall or just look at if i have ever been over?
