***January Jellybeans***~ 35 BABY GIRLS & 23 BABY BOYS BORN ~***

OH regina im so sorry baby isn;t behaving. Come on baby....your momma just wants to meet you now! Its time to come out...no more messing around.

Hope that helps and you either get some rest or your little one in your arms!!! Hugs
 
Just wanted to let u ladies know that it turns out my pains was actually my placenta breaking away. Doctor was very happy I went to the hospital and Sarai was born via emergency c-section december 30, at 5:08 pm! We're both doing well! Will update with pics later on!


ahhhhhhhhhhh i totally missed this post!!!! I was sitting here thinking I haven't seen you post in a while and I searched for your last post and I can't believe I'm now seeing this!!!!

CONGRATS!!!!!
 
Nope, false alarm. moderate to severe contractions all last night but no progress. I'm just so tired from what I consider all the gratuitous pain. I'd be fine with the pain if I knew it was doing anything... but pain just for the sake of it? I'm so pissed. Was monitored for almost 4 hours last night, then sent home again and told to drink lots of water and take tylenol pm. Woke up without the contractions, but I feel like I've just had surgery... my bump is swollen and hard and sore, like it's been beaten up from the inside... no contractions, just pain. Apparently I'm pants at determining what's true or false labor- I think I'm going to just wait until my water breaks... who cares if my mother's water didn't break till she was 8 cm... better to have go to the hospital when it's too late for medication than having to lie on my back in the hospital, getting painful cervical checks for nothing, and only able to drink water. If you can't tell ladies, I'm just so fed up. I'm just sitting here bawling my eyes out as I type... I'M JUST SO DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

oh no I am sorry to hear this :hugs: and I hope you're feeling better!
 
Regina and Lisa, huge hugs. Both of you should try to do one thing that makes you really happy today, even if it's just listening to your favourite song. You're both having a rubbish time of it at the moment with one thing or another and deserve to be happy and well. Xx
 
Hugs regina thats what happend with me thos time so i feel ur pain hun
but once in established labour it took two hours xx
hope everyone is ok xx
 
Not seen smiffy/leanne around for a few days but it's her due date today so congrats to her! CAN'T be long now, though I'm sure every day will feel like forever.
 
Hi girls how is everyone? Anymore babies trying to get out?

I had the weirdest sensation today, I'd just done some laundry and was stood in kitchen when I felt like a bulging bubble feeling in the foofie, I can only assume it was my waters, I thought they were going to break then it just went and nothing happened. My waters went during intense labour last time - well hind waters did, ds tried to be born like an astronaut with waters still on him, probably the reason I was pushing 2 hours! The midwife broke them so his head could crown so I have nothing to compare the feeling too!

Of course I'm just wishful thinking! Would live baby to come soon! X

ooooooh FX for you! Were there any Xmas day or NYD babies born do we know?
 
Morning ladies!!!! It is 6:16 in the morning here. I've been having some contractions (i think) Since 5:13. Not regular thou. 5:13, 5:26, 5:50, 6:08 so far. The pain is lower like period cramps but worse and my bump is only going hard from the belly button down. but it hurts and it woke me up. It almost feels like baby is stretching isdeways but I know he is head down and can't stretch like that anymore. I dont know how to explain it other than that. And for the life of me I can't remember what my contractions felt like with my LO.

This could totally be BH but I never had them with jmy daughter and I knew i was in labour with her because my waters broke before labour started. I tried to change positions after going to the bathroom and get back to sleep but so far that didn't work out for me. I also have som acid reflux at teh moment....not sure if you still get that while in labour?
Also while having these contractions I can feel them building up and getting stronger while they are happening. Again not sure really whats giong on just wanted to update you on my early morning pains. Honest....im not trying to jump the queue!!!!!! but I very well could have jinxed myself. I told OH and updated my FB last night saying...."Bags are packed, house is ready. Just have to buy some batteries and this baby can come out and meet everyone!" LOL but I have not gotten the batteries yet!!!!!!! LOL
 
Im still here and yes it's my due date today wooop!

Bean is being stubborn though and after about 2 hours of bouncing on my ball last night all I achieved was a bit f back ache, a few mild cramps and then sharp pains in my cervix as I was trying to get to sleep. Sleeping ok at the mo though apart from the coughing fit about 3am this morning!!

Can't believe all this action and still some babies are refusing to come out. I am hoping mine will start to show himself in the enxt day or 2 although I am still so nervous of the pian of labour and birth! Ah well suppose its too late for that now lol.

:hugs: to those of you that need them! Too many posts to comment on/multi-quote!!

Well my midwife saga continued into new years day of all days. After tryin to get in touch with someone all week only to be told my mw would call me on tues (i.e. tomorrow), my OH answered my mobile on new years day morning to the team leader of community midwives. She wanted to speak to me but I was asleep - we had been up till 3am and this was 9.30am so rightly so - so she started to get a bit arsey with him. Anyway she told him that I had missed an appointment for a sweep to which he replied no she hasn't shes been trying to book a 40 wk appt all week. So mw then says well she is overdue, to which OH says no, shes not, shes not due till monday. She then tells my OH THE FATHER OF THE BABY no she was due on christmas day!!! The cheek as if he wouldn't know!!! Anyway she asked again to speak to me and he said no I'm not waking her up she needs to sleep. Basically she wouldn't accpet anything he told her and continued to say I was overdue and needed a sweep appt after I had missed one I didn't even know about!!!

Anyway when I woke up at 11am OH told me about this and it made me very cross as you can imagine. So I listened to my msgs cos she had already rang once before OH actually picked up thinking it might be important (showed as unknown number on my fone and we tend to ignore these lol). Apparently I had been booked for a sweep without them having spoken to me for fri (nye) and they were wondering if i had missed it cos I was in labour. Then there was another msg from wednesday from another mw telling me about said sweep appt - I can only assume i was on the fone when she called and my fone went straight to answerfone as I totally missed this msg and never got a missed call alert. So i called them back and was told the team leadr would call me back and she did. I basically straightened her out about my due date, they had me down as xmas day on their computer system and that hasn't been the case since my 12 wk scan. She started trying to tell me to book in with my mw at my dr's for my 40 wk appt and I was like thats what Ihave been trying to do all blooming wk woman! Well didn't say that but these people don't seem to cummincate with each other!! Anyway it ended with her leaving another message on fiona's system (my mw) telling her to call me on tuesday! The exact same result I already had without stressing me and OH about a load of crap cos they hadn't got their facts right!!!

Grrrrr Sorry that was mega long but it really annoyed me!

xxxx
 
Laura, sounds promising, hoping its not too much longer x

Leanne, what a nightmare! What worries me about MW is what if you wanted a home birth but can never get hold of her, that would be awful.I could never get hold of mine until i had him and now i can always get hold of her! Not long now x
 
So now I think its just BH. Ive now had tightenings but not as much pain. but they are closer together. 6:30, 6:35, 6:40. Im basically not going to worry about anything unless they get really bad or my water breaks. I cant determine anything by timing them cuz they are nothing like my daughter. when contractions started with her they started about 3 hours after my water broke and they were 3 minutes apart right from the start all the way until my emergency c-section 8 hours later. Im goign to go put a towel down on the couch and see if I can get back to sleep for a while because i was smart and stayed up until 2:30AM doing laundry and watching a movie with Oh so if baby is coming today im going to be sooooo tired!!!!! LOL

smiffy so sorry your having crap luck with the MW hope baby comes soon and you dont have to worry abuot them anymore, you can just enjoy your baby!!!!!
 
I'm back at work tomorrow I was hoping baby would come before so I didn't have to go in but no luck I'm working till my due date but at least that's less than 2 weeks away now

wow! what do you do?
 
Teach excluded secondary students can be violent so not looking forward to it but oh was made redundant so I have no choice
 
wow brave woman :hugs: sorry to hear about OH
 
Abstersmum - you work in a pupil referral unit and you're going back?! As a normal secondary teacher myself I know you know I'm not being sarcastic when I say I am on my knees worshipping your dedication. How much mat leave you having then? Should get about 18 weeks without it being TOO much of a knock financially.

Leanne- sounds like jack is a very patient man, I don't think it would've taken Adam long to start shouting. Mind you, he would've woken me up and then there would really be trouble. I hope it finally gets sorted - can't help but feel that I've been super lucky.

Jo- my friend said to me a while back that just before your waters break it feels like bubbling so I would guess that you're right about it being your waters.
