January Jellybeans 2013!...

[Cailidgh]

Get your fingers and toes crossed for me please ladies! Going into hospital this morning to discuss possibility of induction after Xmas! I can no longer walk and have lily to try and look after on my own... Darn spd! Midwife reckons it'll be a section! I also have to speak to anaesthetist today about pain relief options (they didn't work in first pregnancy) and have a scan as mw thinks this lil leech is too high and the wrong way round!
She said I might want to take dinner with me today lol it'll be a long one.

Then it's off up the river to granny's for Christmas assuming I can get into the boat! My giddy aunt it's going to be a hectic day!

So yeah... Induction pleeeease! Need limbs back!

 

[Leinzlove]

Span: How exciting! I hope baby comes soon, so you can have your home birth!

 

[BlossomJ]

Any progress Span? Hope you're doing ok

Brieri - Hope your walk gets things going. You girls are making me look forward to labour now, how weird is that?! (Though I still need my whooping cough jab as I've not been well enough for it & want the festivities out of the way first, so I could do with going to term)

Last minute shopping with a two year old today - could be interesting! Think I'll have to leave his cousin's present until last or I'll never get him out of the toy shop!

 

[BlossomJ]

Nikki - Hope you feel better When is your next appointment? Been crossing fingers that placenta is holding up for Ella Would you prefer to go closer to your due date, or are you wanting to be booked in sooner?

Lauren - Let us know what they say.

It's impossible to tell who'll be next now!

No baby yet. I'm getting painful contractions but they're not lasting very long.

No baby yet. I'm getting painful contractions but they're not lasting very long.

Hope they start to regularise & lengthen soon x

Jessica Elsie arrived via c section due to consultants worry about her size on Friday 21/12/12 at 10.34am weighing 5lb 10. They dropped the drapes so i could see her arrive, magical! and placed her on me straight away. Due to complications i was in theatre an hour longer but daddy had cuddles, i ended up in hdu because my uterus wouldnt contract and a balloon fitted in my utereus....all v odd, but i wasnt feeling ill so cant complain. Jessica breast feeds like a dream, no one came near her while in hospital, it was so nice i was trusted to say shes fine. once the balloon was out i went to the wards. Hospital was a nightmare, turning people away, not enough midwives, everyone got ignored and i finally got out at 11pm after being told at 9am!!!! security got involved because the fathers were kicking off! all in all i was home 48 hours after a c section with major complications, they starved me for most of the time because they thought id need surgery.
so, now i have my dream, i got to see my baby born, hold her straight away, breastfedd and bring her home....perfection. all that happened seems completely irrelevant, although a complaint will be going into the hospital. you can t say someone is hdu and then leave them in a room alone all night with a baby in the other corner in the resus cot because they had no cots! then tell the mum not to get out of bed!!! it amazes me no one died this weekend i that hospital

Omg confused, that sounds horrendous, but most important is that you are well and have a Healthy baby to take home with you! Congratulations on baby Jessica!

 

[mellywelly]

Well ds is having a lovely chilled out birthday. The look of amazement on his face this morning when he opened his present was worth every penny!!!!!!!

 

[Lauren021406]

dr went well..i am still 1cm and only 50% effaced but I am happy because that means he wont be here until after christmas! I am very crampy now after the internal.

 

[Nikkilewis14]

Blossom! Thanks! The placenta is completely mature now .. But that's not why they are inducing me lol.. Baby is too big now so Monday I am having an amnio and they should be inducing me that day if her lungs are mature!! one more week!!

Congrats sweetie! So sorry to hear about your troubles, but so happy to hear you have your angel with you and she's doing so well! (And I sill love her name! )

Looks like we have another jellybean... Saw on Facebook

 

[BlossomJ]

Congratulations confused! Sorry about the nightmare at the hospital & glad everyone is OK & you dealt with it so well

Thanks Nikki. I've been struggling to keep up with everyone as we've been frantically sorting the house out before leaving for Christmas with relatives. A week is really not long!! I'm glad you got this far before she got too big. Bet you can't wait Hope it all goes to plan - I was induced last time & it was super quick & not as tough as I expected. Hope it's the same for you!

 

[darkstar]

Congrats Confused!

Now that my boy is not breech I have to wait for him to come in his own time, I will probably be around due date like my last two I think. DTD last night and not even a cramp afterwards. Nothing! I think its safe to say this little guy is staying put for a while.

Merry Christmas everyone, its now Christmas day here

 

[ARuppe716]

Should have clarified my post... Looks like span had her little one!! Congratulations!!

 

[DeedeeBeester]

Yeah, I saw it too! Congratulations to Span and Confused!!

Amanda, see... Span was our due date buddy too, we have hope! LOL

 

[DeedeeBeester]

How I wish we came with a little thingy like turkeys that tell you: This is It! hahaha
I woke up today to the feeling that I had peed myself... went to the bathroom and my liner was wet. So I put on a big pad for nighttime, they are way bigger than I remember them being, TMI but I feel like it's so big my vajayjay went numb hahahaha.

I've gone a couple of times to check it and it seems to be normal, who knows! I am getting some back pains, but it could be anything... sleeping wrong, BM... and what's worse is that I think my gallbladder pain experience might have ruined my ability to feel when something is really hurting... like labor hurting. I just don't know... I guess we will see.

I had to take it out of my system just so I don't keep obsessing over every little pain. Haha.

Odds are: It's nothing hahahaha.
