January Jellybeans 2013!...

[Lillian33]

I have everything crossed you go into labour tonight Span & you get your home birth! As the others have said, Meg will love getting a sibling for Christmas!

Hope you're feeling better Melly!

Lauren & Sonia, you're both sounding like you're bodies are getting ready! You too Brieri, hopefully you are losing your plug!!

Good luck for the scan dark star, maybe you'll get an Christmas eve surprise & your boy has turned?!

Can't believe it's Christmas tomorrow-well a day & a half away for you Northern Hemisphere ladies!! Hope we get some more surprise Christmas babies!!!

Sonia- I still have quiet days where I start ti worry and then the next day he is active as ever!! He is also turning into quite te night owl and is most active in the middle of the night. Because its cramped it hurts when he kicks and I have a hard time sleeping! I also just had a few quiet days followed by a change in bump and itchy stretch marks way down low so I think it was caused by shifting and growing...

 

[mellywelly]

Aww melly, I can't even count the number of times I've wet myself. After Christian was born, I bled all over the floor in the bathroom (DH had to clean it up because I couldn't. Then he called it a massacre) It's all for a good cause, though!

I'm hoping its just all the mucus from my cold making me feel nauseous, and not the start of anything. It would be horrible for ds if the baby was born on his birthday.

How's the breastfeeding going now ducky?

That's the link, I think, but I reset my settings so I can be looked up via email address: [email protected], thanks deedee

I found you, but I can't add you. Do you have your settings to friends of friends?

I dunno, I'm pretty sure its on a very strict setting. Which ones do I need to change to be added?

 

[brieri1]

I switched my who can contact me setting to everyone, maybe it'll work now? Sorry I'm so difficult.

 

[ARuppe716]

Melly- one of my friends has two little girls and they share a birthday 4 years apart! I actually don't think they mind, and think its kind of cool since you never really see that happen! Plus my friend can throw just one big birthday party for friends and family.

 

[span]

Nothing much happening here - just very mild, irregular contractions and lots of leaking waters. I'm wearing 'tena lady' pants which are doing a great job.
Just been out to get a chinese takeaway and ate loads - hoping to force baby out with a lack of room.

I'll have another bounce on my ball for a bit but I'm not feeling hopeful so reckon my best bet is to get an early night.

 

[Lilahbear]

Good luck Span. I hope things start moving for you soon.

My little one has been quite quiet today too, but I think that's because we had a party last night and they were up till 1am partying! Been moving more this evening though, probably due to the chocolate I have been eating!

I can't believe it's Christmas Eve tomorrow! Going to get the last bits of food shopping done tomorrow then going to bed down and relax. This is the first year me and DH have spent Christmas on our own and we can't wait!

 

[mellywelly]

I think I might have a bit of a nap, still feel sick and now got a banging headache too. I've not felt right for a week now, just want this bug gone!

Then I will have to trundle off to the shop at midnight to get ds's card!

I tried the link but can't see a friend request? Also searched your name but can't find you?

 

[mellywelly]

Brier do you want to search for me (Carmella mann) and I can try to send you a group request then

 

[snowangel187]

Mmmm they told me I had 4 days to go into labour with ds before any chance of infection, maybe things have changed in the last 6 years?

They allow 3 days before induction at my hospital with monitoring every 24hrs until then

They admit you right away here and if you haven't delivered within 24hours they csection you.


Afm. Did my last nst today. have my appt at 8:30 tomorrow morning to get checked. Eek. So nervous.

 

[brieri1]

Brier do you want to search for me (Carmella mann) and I can try to send you a group request then

Yes, thank you, I sent you a friend request

 

[brieri1]

So... I haven't started timing stuff or anything, but ever since about an hour after I had sex this morning, I've had increasingly painful contractions... Its probably nothing and will stop at some point, but I can't help but cross my fingers!!! Even if it means having a baby on Christmas Eve. Oh well. She doesn't know tomorrow is Christmas Eve and I can't wait to meet her.

 

[Soniamillie01]

Fingers crossed hun xx

 

[darkstar]

I had my scan and baby has turned, he is head down! Everything looks great and he's currently weighing in at 6 pound 11 ounces roughly. We got some pictures and he's got the cutest chubby cheeks, I hadn't seen him on scan since 20 weeks.

OH is quitting smoking.. we're on day 3 and he's in the crankiest mood right now. I'm trying to be patient but this is about the 7th time he's tried to quit this year so I'm kind of over it Its nice he wants to finally quit before baby comes but if he ruins Christmas with his moods and then starts up smoking again and it's all for nothing (again) I'm gonna be mad.

 

[Soniamillie01]

Glad the scan went well hun.

I'm with you on the DH giving up smoking, mine has also tried god knows how many times to give up this year and I know how frustrating it can be. He has had a stressful year so I can understand why he has stopped, started, stopped, started etc. I hope your DH succeeds this time, I know mine will give up as soon as baby is here and not look back. I don't let him smoke in the house or car and when we moved into our new house he gave up on the spot, cold turkey so think babies will be the motivation they both need

 

[Lauren021406]

my dh has promised to quit smoking as soon as baby comes..he started slowing down and using a fake electronic one..but now that my due date is closer ive noticed he is smoking more again......

DSo glad he turned! (and a little jealous!)

 

[darkstar]

I hope he can stick with it because I can see that if he starts smoking again its going to cause arguments, I can't stand letting babies anywhere near a smoker. One of my other children was asthmatic as a baby and its scary watching your baby having an attack (and he wasn't near smokers at all).

He doesn't smoke inside the house or in our car, he was smoking in his own car but stopped when I refused to travel in it pregnant and that caused enough argument but he eventually stopped.

Sorry to whine on. It was such good news at the scan that we don't have a breech baby anymore and then he ruined it by having a tantrum because he wanted a smoke and now he's having a nap so I'm enjoying the peace while it lasts (and I'll tip toe around the house so I don't wake the monster lol).
