Ooh love birth stories, off to read....

I've gotten frustrated with counting because sometimes I can't tell when a contraction is coming on... and then I only feel it at the peak... or other times I don't even feel a contraction, but touch my bump and it's super hard... I think I'll just wait for the pain to become intolerable or my water breaks or the bleeding to get severe to go to the hospital. This counting stuff has me practically in tears again.

Aww Regina....try not to fret...little one knows her birthday and there's not much we can do. Feeling for you

Beccy...no appts yet but should make one. I'm gonna break the trend here and say can just wait till EDD now because I got so homesick on Island I've booked to go back on boat in morning. It means I may give birth on my own but just need to be in my own house with my friends and church around me. I was really just trying to hide from the dad but can't let him stop me from being where I truly want to be. So baby Michael no appearances on the boat please!

good luck susie!

 

[LittleMrs]

Hugs susie. If you are part of a church community are there friends you are close to who could maybe be there with you at the birth? I hate to think of you going through it alone.

Regina, hope things happen for you soon as it seems to be getting very stressful for you.

Well, baby Scott is stubbornly refusing to make an appearance but is managing to totally interrupt any possible sleep anyway but it's probably at least partially my own fault. Yesterday me and OH DTD- I was partially hoping this might get something moving but all it did was hurt like hell. We had curry for tea too (though not anything very spicy really) and I woke up at 5 with the most painful heartburn yet- three chewy indigestion tablets and no change at all! I've also been sweating a vast amount in my sleep for days if not a few weeks now - to the point where I can't get back to sleep because I keep sticking to the wet sheets - anyone else become a human tap? So, upshot being, feel like crap today. Booo.

My pal has been having hot flushes all way thru her pg, I dont even feel warm but my craving of ice probably to blame for that! I wake up at 5am with her moving, tho last few mornings I've woke up feeling sick and can't get back to sleep.

Susie hope you have someone close you can ask to be with you. I practically ignored dh when in labour last time just went right into myself but I imagine I was able to do that because I knew he was there! X

 

[Jolene]

Just had to read through over 20 pages to try and catch up, lol.

Sorry to only post now but life has been hectic but awesome. Mackenzie is an absolute angel and we still can't believe she's ours. I have attached two pics to show her off. When I get a chance I will write a birth story as I must say I had a wonderful birth experience(c-sec) Here she is:

 

[hodbert]

Update from Regina: "just got to hospital. looks hopeful. excruitiating pain though." Let's hope this is it for her!

 

[millward329]

Thanks guys, there are some people I am close too...it's just the thought of being exposed in the fleshly regions that bothers me. Not sure I can get over that!

Wow.... that would make for quite a birth story!! You absolutely need to be wherever you feel comfortable. How long is the trip? Could anyone from the Island come back with you?

Come on Disney!! She'll be here any minute!

Beautifully written Blessed! Such a cutie!!!

Oooooh
Let's hope so - she's probably had her fill of false alarms by now

 

[smiffy85]

Go regina go!!! Lol!

Susie, I'm glad you are doing what makes you happy. Hope it all goes well hun and you get settled back in your house before michael puts in an appearance!!

Nothing of great importance to report as I'm still sat here in my pj's with no imminent signs of labour this morning. After DTD last night I was hoping for more to say this morning but other than it not being as painful as the last time we tried and OH enjoying it lol it didn't have quite the effect I wanted i.e. proper labour pains. Can't belive I am wishing for pain!!!

About an hour after dtd I started to get dull achey pains down at the bottom of my bump that went into my back aswell and these lasted about 30-40 secs each and were around 10-15 mins apart. This went on from about 11pm till just after 12 then I finally fell asleep and had my normal wake ups for the loo and nothing had changed. Just a bit achey really.

Did anyone who has had their LO or anyone else still pregnant get sharp pains in what is probably thier cervix at all? Feels like bean is trying to corkscrew his way out with a sharp tool sometimes!! Didn't know whether to take this as a good sign as I was having this happen too.

Flu jab this morning and then an asda shop. Hoping a walk round pushing a trolley may get things going lol!!

Sounds like we are all at it at the moment!! Lol @ lucky OH's!!
My experience was exactly the same. It just hurt. I kept expecting something to happen but no. Just some Braxton's and a sore foof.

This may be TMI but I feel so much tighter down there. OH even said as much. How the am I going to be able to get a out of there?!!



Nice Bumpage Leanne!!

 

[jms895]

Nice bump leanne.

We have xnymore babies!? X

 

[LittleMrs]

Beccy, been thinking the exact same thing but I'm hoping it's just one of those things where your body has clamped up for protection. I just can't relax properly for dtd - I'm so aware of the bump the whole time and if it gets touched then that's it - I am out of there like a shot.

Managed to catch up on my sleep now OH is at work but now left with a whole day stretching in front of me and nothing to do but panic about the baby. How has everyone been spending their mat leave? This is my first official day and house is pretty damn tidy as have been cleaning for a week.

Susie - I have the same concerns about the midwives and OH watching downthe business end (I imagine that'll be quite an enduring image for him) but I've been told that once it kicks in I really won't care. I hope you do have someone you feel comfortable enough with or that someone can make it from the island to be with you. Maybe you could discuss it with a close friend with the agreement that you might change your mind?

lol when the time comes you prob wont mind who sees what! My dd and my sil have both seen me having a bed bath! If you look at my previous threads I was worried about being washed by a mw after the section let alone anyone else being there! the person with you will more than likely be at 'your' end supporting you as there wont be a lot of room down the other end.

Nice bump Leanne, now I took photos of my bump the day I went to hospital (the Tuesday) and deleted them as I couldnt get a good photo... gutted as that was the last day I was pregnant, I reckon thats your last photo before you have your baby and im gonna predict you go into labour today or tomorrow... just cos im weird

 

[sar35]

Good luck Regina and all the other JJ mums to be xxx
