+*+ July Babies+*+blue 76, pink 92, yellow 29. 129 Here already!

I'm STILL waiting too! Had second sweep on Wednesday (at 41 weeks) and had a few niggles, but still no tightenings. Is this baby ever going to come out??! if all else fails am going in on Wedneasday to be induced, but really dont want to go down that route.

Head is 2/5 engaged, but baby is back to back which isnt great either!

SO frustrating isn't it??? Come on babies hurry up xxx
 
We hope so!
really want to meet "the bump" in person!
I was talking to it last night saying its much better out here than in the cramped womb.
So much love is waiting to be given........ didnt work.
 
So many things tried! Food, sex, bribery! Come on babies!

Have just been sick, and like the daft that I am, am secretly excited!
 
Full moon on Monday...reckon that'll kick anyone off??

Lol -I remember saying the same last month haha :haha::haha:- well my induction is Tuesday, so if there's any truth in the tale that maternity hopsitlas are full aorund the time of the full moon then I am going to be so pissed if I dont get my induction beacuse of it haha

:haha: I was sick this morning too and was secretly hoping that was a good sign!!

I've just had a very disappointing appointment with the midwife as she said no to the sweep as "they're not really allowed to do them till 40 weeks" ffs it's only 2 days away, so she said that I could go to the children's centre next tuesday for one instead and to phone them up. So I did that and they're fully booked. So I rang my normal doc surgery to try and get in there and they have nothing till Friday :cry: I am gutted now. I could have accepted Tuesday but another week before I even get my first sweep seems so long away
 
Oh bunny -that is so disappointing -especially when you read about other ppl getting them at 38 -39 weeks etc :hugs::hugs:

Is there nowhere else you can get a sweep done? My mw's only have one afternoon appt system where I am(which is always fully booked and would have meant only 1 sweep for me since reaching 40w too) but I have been attending my local CMU for sweeps (or attempts at least as they mhaven't been so good so far) -one attempt at 40+1 - baby too high; had one at 40+6 -successful sweep but did not work regardless, third attempt yday -cervix unreachable/ couldn't be found haha and another booked for tomorrow 40+11.

Or can you ask for a home visit? - some of the ladies on here have had mw's do sweeps at home too. xxxx
 
My hubby is trying to sort it out for me - bless him. I text him to tell him and he phoned me and I was just sobbing away! He said it wasn't good enough and so is ringing round everyone trying to sort something out - we'll see if he does. He phoned my normal midwife but she's off sick till at least 6th August so that's no good, so he's trying to get hold of the woman that I saw earlier to see if she can help!

Yup, still here! although as Thread Mother, I will be here until all the babies are born! How's motherhood CR?

It's going really well thanks :) She's such a bundle of joy. I'm thankful that she has taken to breastfeeding like a pro x
 
Janidog has now got an epidural and is 5cm, so a slow progress but contractions are every 3 mins. baby will have to stay in hospital for 24hrs once he is born, to make sure he hasn't been affected by the meconium (sp?). Phew i think thats all about right :haha:
 
Hi Girls.

Hello ladies!

Well I have been for a massive walk and I am knackered! am now taking it easy with a cup of rlt. (gack) I had to go out and get more, and a birthday pressie for my sister. I have also got some lavender oil, as some say that this may bring on labour. I got lavender oil as I can use this after the pregnancy for relaxation!

Congrats to Croc-O-Dile on the birth of your little girl and VIz1975, who sent me a PM to let me know that her boy has arrived!

Welcome back to Ladybug, good to see you, and thanks to henny for her Janidog updates! hope the labour progresses smoothly.

Bunnyg, sorry you have been refused a sweep just yet, I would book myself in for the one next week, and then see if you can arrange one sooner. I had a sweep at home, so hopefully someone might be able to squeeze you in!
 
Ladybug ,Croc-o-dile and VIz congrats to you all on our baby's births -hope everyone is enjoying motherhood and getting to know their little bundles of joy.

Going for my third RLT just now Spu haha -really am getting sick of it but gotta keep trying something haha.

Still nothing from me, hoping the sweep works tomorrow -you too Spu; what time is yours at??? I have my appt at 2 pm- so baby by tea time please haha
