To the ladies that did/are doing the nipple stimulation did you find that your boobies went rock hard, very warm and leaked whilst you were twiddling. Ive just been bouncing on the ball and twiddling my nipples (15 mins each side) and I dont know whether the low back pain is from all the bouncing or not. Top of bump is also rock hard.

Jo, Susie and Beccy how you all getting on, anyone having any twinges or symptoms?

Nothing changed for me really. Same old Braxtons, same crampy feeling and some sore nipples of course (but thats my own fault!!). Sadly am up at 3am though. Stupid pregnancy insomnia wasn't helped by OH tonight. I took myself to bed about 9.30pm with my book, drifted off around 11pm and was then woken by stupid clot of OH coming to bed at 1am after being unable to stop playing Gran Turismo.

Last day at work tomorrow and due date on Saturday I will be starting the eviction process tomorrow night

Well done on FINALLY finishing work.
You deserve a bloody medal for lasting so long!!

Just to let you know I had my daughter at home at 11.14pm yesterday (13/01/11) and she is absolutely georgous. I'm over the moon and will update properly tomorrow x x

Massive congrats pinkie!!

Hey all just wanted to say that I had my daughter, Hazel Thelma on Tuesday 11/1/2011.

I got to Hospital at 8pm and she arrived at 11.52pm weighing 7lb 11oz! She didn't want to hang around!

I had gas and air and had a small tear and was discharged the next morning. She is feeding brilliantly and is utterly gorgeous!

Congrats to all the other new Mummy's and good luck to everyone waiting x

The joy of fridays have gone now I've finished work. I'm SO tired. I didn't get to sleep until 4.30am when I passed out on the sofa. I dragged my bum to bed about 6am but was disturbed by OH constantly pressing snooze on his effing alarm.

I've only just got up now. What a bum!! My body clock is so out of whack now. ENOUGH already! Only 2 days til due date but I'm placing no hope or wishful thinking in this.
Is anyone doing anything fun today?

 

[sar35]

all im doing is waiting for a delivery

Hi Ladies just a quick update from me as the news still hasnt sunk in with me yet.

Been at the hospital for our appointment with the consultant and also for our scan this morning. There is no need to induce me as yet as baby is happy, doing well and still has normal amounts of fluid to swim in.

At the scan baby is currently measuring 4.2kg (9lb 4oz according to the growth chart in my notes) and is on the 95th centile for everything apart from head circumference which doesnt fit on their graph (is above 100th centile!). Baby is still definately a girl, has a full head of hair, nice long legs and big feet. Baby is back to back with me and she was led more on my left side although when the consultant felt baby she was on the right but still back to back. Babies head is only 1/5th palpable so they are happy that she is well and truly engaged as they can only feel a small part of her head.

The consultant has decided that because of my history, Phoebe's birth and complications in this pregnancy to not let me go to far over (hospital policy is sweep at 5-7 days over and induction 10-12 days over. I am now booked in for induction of labour for 9am on Wednesday 19th Jan (40+6) if baby doesnt come on her own. They have said that as labour progresses they dont think baby will fit down the birth canal or induction fails then I will go for a c-section.

Oh WOW, congratulations! you have an end date and all is well! That is so great. Are you pleased?

The 19th Jan is a nice sounding birthday!

 

[mum2be2011]

Beccy - Im pleased to have a date set and the 19th sounds cool but im so worried about the size of babies head and her weight. I know Phoebe was a big baby (8lb 10oz) and I pushed her out in 3 pushes and had a very quick labour im still scared.

 

[beccybobeccy]

Gosh yes, stupid naive first timer here... didn't even think about the size of the head and pushing it out.

Sometimes knowing what you have to come is worse than not knowing. My MW just keeps saying a "nice size" baby. WTH does that mean?

I'm sure they will look after you hun. I can't offer any more encouragement than that as I sit here in my ignorance about birth...

Can I offer a hug?

 

[jojo-m]

great news Rachael! don't worry about baby been 9lb, 2 of my pals gave birth to their second babies 5 months ago and both were 9lb 1 and 9lb 4. One of my friends is tiny 5ft 3, is about a size 6 if that, she is such a skinny little thing yet she said the labour was better than with her 7lb 7oz baby which was her first! They will be keeping a close eye on you and have already warned you that you will be whipped off for a section at signs of trouble! so enjoy knowing you have an end date!

This madam is showing no signs of coming at all, so rubbish! 3 days over tomorrow, must admit it would be highly convenient to have her come over the weekend instead of in the week! if she does stick to that I'm sure she is going to be a daddys girl who is very considerate! Paul got lots of work on in next few weeks so no paternity leave for him! joys of having your own business I guess! Least we would get some help at weekend! x
