Merry Christmas everyone!

Had midwife appointment this morning. Baby is IN the pelvis - didn't think this usually happened until labour usually with second pregnancies, but all good! She's in exactly the right position, and all is on for our home birth. The midwife will try to ring on Boxing Day to arrange a date next week to bring some equipment and talk through everything. She's estimating I'll go to 39 weeks, so we'll see...

Phew! Just had to read about 15 pages to get all caught up.

First off, Merry Christmas, ladies!

Secondly, had my 36 week appointment yesterday (Thursday). Had a positive group b strep result, but the doctor's not worried. She said it's fairly common and it just means I need to have antibiotics during labor. I'm 1 cm dilated, and have 30% effacement. LO isn't engaged yet, but oh well... I found it odd, because I've carried her so low this whole pregnancy, I'm dreading what it's going to feel like when she goes even lower! lol.

I seem to have the same gripes as most of you ladies... acid reflux galore, painful hips, and sharp pains up the, um, lady area. Also, sleep seems to be non-existent during the night time. It's like I'm turning nocturnal... can't sleep when it's dark lol.

I need to know what contractions feel like!

I have this dull pain on the bottom of the bump, that comes and goes every few minutes.... for the last hour or so! Stupid Christmas shopping!

Must.keep.legs.crossed.

Any way to explain a contraction to me ladies???

So in reference to your Group B Strep test they told you the results instantly??? I just had mine done yesterday as well.

Got my induction date today. I'm being induced 12/30. YAY!

Neko, my doc says he thinks the 3rd will be too late for my c-sec and wants to do it on the 30th too so I will find out on the 29th. It's actually a nice date : 30-12-2010 as they all add up to 3!

Hope you get your baby a few days earlier than planned. A nice New Year's gift.


Everything is now wrapped or in bags and under the tree. I am finally done for the day.

NO, I had the test last week and got the results this week.

Congrats Beccy!!! hoping OH will take the initiative to do that too soon! you must be so excited!

So, either I'd eaten too much rich food last night or my body's started clearing out for labor. I'm hoping it's the latter.

Merry Christmas everyone!
