[lovealittle1]

So sorry you are going through this Laura.

 

[Jolene]

Laura you really have my sympathy

lol Leanne . Yesterday in the supermarket I felt this pressure and bulge down below - was the weirdest feeling- I really thought my waters were going to break. Hubby thought it was hilarious. Can you imagine, in the middle of the store??? So cute that your OH gets so excited but I know what you mean, I don't want to be in hospital over christmas.

This LO has been so active. Last night she was moving so much I was going numb from the inside. I could feel her little hands moving around on the one side (her feet were close to my ribs) and it felt like her little fists were punching something in there. My DH felt it too, you should have seen his face

Sounds like we're going to get some more babies coming soon. How exciting ladies!

 

[hodbert]

Hey girls, Holly and i xame home from the hospital today!!!! Its been a challenging day though, stupidly forgot to get my prescription and woke up from a nap this aft in agony and nothing tp take. Queue major freak out! Hubby went to collect drugs but they took a bit of time to kick in. Anyway i seem to be a lot better now, so yey! Sooooooo good to bbe home with my baby

 

[millward329]

Yay for babies coming home....we still need some boys though

Leanne if your waters go in Asda you get the contents of your trolley free!

 

[smiffy85]

With a trolley full of LCD TVs. Lol

Been to midwife this morning. Everything fine - baby 4/5 engaged. 38 weeks today, next appointment on due date. My midwife says that most women go to 41 weeks (8 days over average) with their first baby so that's 3 weeks and 1 day. Long enough. Not long enough for me to decide that there is going to be a baby bt long enough to go through another 4 packs of rennie chewy. Early start for the heartburn today.

How are all you ladies?

Lisa, glad to see that you and Hollyare doing well and enjoying being home.

 

[jms895]

Tracey I had Caine 4 hours after due date

Hope not too many of you braving the supermarkets today!

I have works Xmas dinner but a poorly little man

38 weeks today and had my midwife appointment this morning. LO is 4/5 engaged and everything is fine, which is good. My next appointment is on my due date and the midwife reckons that most first time mums go to 41 weeks (8 days over on average) so that's 3 weeks and 1 day from today.

Lisa, glad you are settling in back at home and that you and Holly are doing well.

How are the rest of you ladies doing?

 

[mum2be2011]

Lisa - so glad you and Holly are home. Hope the pain goes soon for you you have a very gorgeous little girl. Enjoy your 1st christmas as a mummy.

Jade & Tracy - Happy 38 weeks

Full term for me today cant believe how early I was up this morning. Had Phoebe in 'school' (nursery) for just after 8 and was in tesco for 8:15. Not too bad there, was expecting to be queuing up the aisles but I was 2nd in the queue and only waited 5 mins. Not impressed that Ive got to go back later We're having a chicken instead of turkey as there is only me, Luke and Phoebs for christmas dinner and when I was putting it in the fridge the damn thing has a use by of the 24th (serves me right for changing my mind for a bigger one) and the xmas outfit I got for Phoebe has a hole in the shoulder. I had to go back later anyway as the pharmacy missed the cut off for ordering in medication so Phoebe's milk wont be in till after 11. Not impressed.

I know what you mean ladies about feeling so much pressure whilst your walking round, forget how many times I had to stop for a rogue foot jabbing me, or to lean on the trolley from the feeling that she was going to fall out. Had to dump the trolley twice just to go for a wee

Have a lovely day ladies, hope everyone is ok

Glad you're home Lisa. Hope we're going to get to see a pic of Holly in her nursery - can't wait to see Mackenzie in hers. How is the breastfeeding going?

I have works Xmas dinner but a poorly little man

Jade, hope Caine feels better soon

 

[jojo-m]

thank god for drugs hey Lisa? keep topped up honey! So nice that your home with baby Holly all ready for christmas, its funny how within days you get so used to them being there you can barely remember life with out them isn't it? I remember being like that with Corey!

Speaking of my little man its his last day of nursery today, ready to start big school on 4th Jan. There were tears yesterday and he cried again this morning, he's such a little geek bless him he don't like change and of course daddy has been away this week and its all a bit much for him!

I'm soooo hungry today its untrue! think baby must have dropped a bit further down because suddenly there is lots of room in my stomach that food is just not filling lol!x

 

[naomicourt]

Updated my journal on scan etc but Bubs seems to be ok and est currently about 7pounds.

I been cleaning all afternoon and me and OH done the deed so am hoping for some labour action v soon!

Really pleased that baby is OK Jade.

O meant to say I texted faff and she is now at home. LO is doing ok but this was a day or 2 ago - sorry I meant to put it on straight away but totally forgot lol!

Naomi can you update faff on the front page for when she next comes on hun. He baby is called Maddy, born on the 11th dec xxxxx

Thanks, I completly forgot about faff's baby. All updated now.

Well ladies i just got up from a vary late nap and the PUPPS has spread again!!! Its now on my belly, arms and my hips and back. And now im out of benadryl. Only bought it 2 days ago. This is going to be an expensive 4 weeks if I go through a bottle in 2 days. Sure it was only like $8 but for the next 4 weeks that will be an added $100 plus the calamine lotion at $3 a bottle which i have probably used half of by now....OMG!!!!

Really feel for you hun, it must be awful. I hope you get some relief from it soon.

I got like that when my baby dropped and have put on 5lbs in 3 weeks!! oops


I am sooooo tired today. I think I will have a nap after lunch.

Major pressure and feeling baby pushing down loads last night! I wish this baby would make up its mind if it wants to come out or not. lol

I'm getting worried now that Christmas is getting closer. I really don't want to be in hospital for Christmas. I want to be at home with my little girl. Oh well, will just have to wait and see what happens.

I hope you are all well today. xx

Hey girls, Holly and i xame home from the hospital today!!!! Its been a challenging day though, stupidly forgot to get my prescription and woke up from a nap this aft in agony and nothing tp take.

Glad you're home Lisa. Hope we're going to get to see a pic of Holly in her nursery - can't wait to see Mackenzie in hers. How is the breastfeeding going?

She's sleeping in our room in her moses basket so is only really in nursery for changing. Have posted a few pics on fb of Holly though, will try and put some up on here too for those ladies who dont have access to fb.

Breastfeeding went terribly so we are now on formula. I was feeling a lot of pressure to bf and always said I would give it a go but it just didnt work for us. She struggled to latch and when she did she would end up falling asleep and took a lot of poking and prodding to wake up and only take another two mouthfuls and would then be asleep. It also caused her to go jaundice because she was dehydrated, so we then had to supplement with formula which made bf even harder as she wailed every time I put her to breast as it was so hard for her to get anything and she just wasnt getting enough. In the end I broke down in tears in front of a very umsympathetic paediatrician (fortunately not mine!) who basically told me breast is best and made me feel worse, but suggested I try expressing and bottle feeding. In the end though we decided to just stick to formula and since I made that decision I have felt so much better and she has been so much happier. I felt like the only moments I was having with her were horrible bf times and i was dreading them, and daddy was getting all the nice cuddle times. Now we share it all and it is fantastic. I just hate the judgement for not bf - the aghast looks on nurses faces when we told them we'd switched to formula! Some were really good and just said its whatever works for us, but you could tell some were tutting behind my back. Another reason we were glad to get home - no judgement. Anyway sorry that turned out to be a bit of a long answer!!

Its so strange Jo, its like she has always being here, I couldn't imagine life without her now. Its just undescribable.

Good luck JB's hope you are not in hospital over christmas, Joe was weighed today and he is now 7lb 3oz and changing every day, the little chubster!

Yey for Joe's weight! Holly was 7lb 4 oz at birth and went down to 7lb but I think shes on the up now shes on formula.

Congrats to you ladies that have hit 37 & 38 weeks Not long now!
