Its June!!!!! 20 week scan next month!!! Whos with me?

[Scally]

Good luck Time- sounds like this could be it!!!!

Sarah- sorry to hear about your weeing, hopefully they can just put the catheter in to drain that bit- please let us know how you get on- huge hugs xx
As for the breastfeeding- i really wish the breastfeeding people would be open to suggesting formula especially as Logan is crying in hunger, it seems to be all one way with them! You have to do what makes you and Logan happy xx

Kellie- Poppy usually settles in her moses basket ok but last night and today has been a no no, I am hoping its just a bit of a growth spurt and not a permanent thing! I am still breastfeeding for now- with one bottle of formula at night which Dave stays up and gives her at 11 ish, i go to bed at 10 ish so i can get a block of sleep before the first feed in the night which is usually about 2/3- most nights apart from the growth spurt nights this works well!

Aww glad you were seen quickly sarah and hopefully by Thursday the catheter will have sorted any problems and your uti will soon be gone! Bless logan he's such a cutie bet he gets lots of admirers!!

Still getting plug, period pains and back ache so praying this could be the start of things! Having a bounce on my ball and trying not to get too excited!

 

[ttc_lolly]

Hi ladies just a quick update! Sweep was successful, and really wasn't that bad! Dunno if it was because of the paracetamol, but I'm around 2cms dilated and she's 4/5th engaged now so everything's looking good. He did say my cervix was still quite thick though so we'll just see how it goes!

Good luck time, I hope this is it for you!

 

[time]

Aww so glad it went okay lauryn!! Hopefully it will get things going!! You having any pains or anything yet?!

 

[ttc_lolly]

A bit of backache but that's about it not really sure what to expect!

 

[Inoue]

Glad you managed to have the sweep Lolly and very glad it wasnt very painfull . Guess we will find out if its worked within 48h! x

 

[time]

They say you may lose your plug and contractions start within 24 hours if it has been effective.. Fingers crossed for you!!!

I'm still having pains just like bad period cramps and also back ache but it's really low down.. Like my coccyx? Bouncing on my ball again haha x

 

[Inoue]

Lol, keep bouncing Time! Im having niggles like someone is squeezing my bladder or that area, may also get on my ball, all these babies are going to have flat heads when they come out!! xx

 

[ttc_lolly]

Well I'll just sit and wait then!

Bounce bounce bounce time & inoue! I'm dying to get home and bounce on my ball but having dinner at the in laws at the moment.

 

[Inoue]

Lol, im pretty sure mine is just baby moving her head in the most inconvenient way so im staying put on the sofa . Hope your not at the in laws for much longer Lolly then get relaxed or bouncing when home xx

 

[ttc_lolly]

Only just got home bouncing like mad though. Haven't felt anything really, had a bit of backache earlier but it's disappeared and haven't lost any plug don't want to count myself out yet but I can't help but feel that it hasn't worked

 

[Inoue]

Your definitely not out yet Lolly . Maybe have a good bounce/walk tomorrow as its getting a little late now. I managed to go on mine and had v painfull cramps, but yet again it all settled when I stopped. Got splitting headache so off to sleep now, will let you know tomoz how my sweep goes if im able to have it.

Night night

Xx

 

[ttc_lolly]

Yeh I'm going to take Amber to play group and might walk there so will see how that goes good luck for your sweep tomorrow hun!

 

[Inoue]

What a night?!! Bloody headache wasnt leaving at all, took paracetamol at midnight and even wore my glasses in bed and it still didnt shift. Been up since 5:30 pottering around then mass pp cramps kicked in at 8 mins apart for 3 sets, ran to the toilet and had two (tmi) mass clear outs and had pink stringy discharge. Got in shower and it eased all pains (including headache! Yay!), hope sweep can finish me off now.

How is everyone elce? Time, Lolly, you doing alright?

Love to pops with whatever's going on

Hope you new mommys Sarah, Scally and Kellie are doing well

Xx

 

[ttc_lolly]

I've been having regular contractions since 5am! They are lasting between 35-53secs with average interval of 6.5mins. We are on our way to the in laws as they live 10mins away from the hospital and are having Amber for us. I hope this is it!

 

[Scally]

yay Lauryn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! how exciting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! good luck try to let us know!!!!!

Time and pops- hope u r both ok and in labour or have your babies!!!!!!

Inoue- not long for you now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wouldnt it be lovely if some of your babies shared birthdays with each other!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HV came yesterday, Poppy has almost made up her birth weight just another oz to go!!!! Its so bizarre Izzy was always on the 91st line for her weight and never fitted into the clothes for her age, now Poppy is on the 9th line and we are taking things back to exchange for a smaller size!

x

 

[Inoue]

All the best Lolly!! Hope this is it for you . My pp cramps have died down but I feel quite sick so its probably for the best today . Still timing them and its 45-55secs and about 10-15mins apart, not consistent though.

Im so going to be the last one

X

 

[time]

Amazing lauryn maybe the sweep has done the job!!

Inoue also sounds like you're really close. Keep timing the pains they may become more regular.

No baby for me yet. Had a bath and went to bed with period pains and although the odd pain woke me up they weren't bad enough to keep me up. I know I'm headed in the right direction though as I've had plug, 2 clearouts, terrible pp, backache since and it doesn't seem to be stopping!

Hoping pops has had her baby hence not hearing from her!! How exciting!!

 

[kellie_w]

Wow!!! Looks like all babies will be here in the next couple of days! Good luck lauryn, so pleased yout sweep looks like its worked, so excited!!!

Inoue, hurray for you too! Guessing from whats happened you will be in labour very soon, good luck!

Pops, hope you and baby are ok, and all arrived safe and sound by now. Cant wait to see your update!

Time, also hoping you are in labour or have delivered safely!

Sarah, hope you are feeling better today. You had exactly the same as me, urine retention and a uti. Try and get hold of some cranberry tablets or juice, it really helps!

Ally, glad to hear poppy has regained her weight. Not surprised with all her feeding!

Im so cross at the moment, in agony with huge piles from delivery, cant get relief with any products so called doctors. Asked for double appointment as also need to get on the pill asap as no more babies welcome and the wait is currently 3 weeks. So great, 3 weeks of feeling like i have a wasp stinging in mu bum!

Oliver has grumped and grunted and moaned all night long, and has wanted just 2oz milk nearly every hour. Longest night ever!!!

 

[Inoue]

I also feel like im a fag paper deapth away from D-day but then another 24h goes by. Pains pretty much dulled down, maybe ill see them again once ive had sweep. Bet these next 24-48-72h will be eventful for this thread.

Regardless of me, I pass loads loads of labour dust around
