How annoying for Wez! Just logged in hoping to see sone baby news. Hopefully she is back there soon, I'd want to kill the hospital if they sent me home with 2 minutes contractions! Thanks for the updates SB and BV.

Simmy - I'll probably get told off for saying this but I will be eating my steak medium rare on Monday - I don't think a steak from gaucho will make me sick (hope not anyway!). Sorry to anyone I offend by admitting that!!

BV - hope your back feels better. Mine is sore too after my nesting activities of today! Feels good to nearly have the flat I shape though :)

Amanda - go with the 16th as your dd then you are the same as me! I heard that the scan is the most accurate predictor anyway!
 
Well those of you who are on fb know we're in hospital with saraya after she took a febrile convultion. They think it's a respiratory virus that caused it bit keeping her in overnight to monitor as her temp was at 39. So uncomfortable sitting in a chair at 3am, my spine wants a bed. The worst thing was walking past all the side rooms with other parents in beds next to their kids to be stuck on a ward in a chair! Plus I have no zofran with me!!! Send positive thoughts my way.

Hope everyone else is well, sorry I cant catch up

No problem!

Hoping to hear more from Wez saying that she gets readmitted, the hospital seems terrible to send her home at this point! Right now she said she's doing lots of walking to help dilate.

AFM, I had a good relaxing day. DH and I worked on putting batteries in and fixing some baby things like the bassinette mobile, swing, and the pack n' play music and lights controller. After that we napped together, then went swimming for a while - I did as many laps and exercises that I could. Baby decided she wanted to help, and got so wild - she tried sticking her legs and arms out of me at the same time and wiggling them like she wanted to help me swim!

Swimming gave us a big appetite so we went to a steakhouse and got some great food. I even ate some jalapenos to try to work in the spicy food inducing myth.

I'm about to go on the birthing ball for a while for a bounce, see if that'll do anything before heading to bed. Tomorrow's my last day of trying to naturally induce birth, after that I give up and I'll just have to let her stubborness decide!
 
Glad Saraya's ok Eve, a febrile convulsion is the brains defense mechanism, it shuts itself down to avoid overheating when a child has a high temp, i know its petrifying to watch but its actually a good thing apparently (i had them, so did my sister, she had about 8 and i've managed to bring abbie out of 2 before a full fit)
Any time abbie has a cold and her temps up i strip the poor child, open a window and have lukewarm water close so i can cool her down before it happens (she hates me lol)

Hope your ok, nothing scarier than watching your child so poorly x x
 
Thanks kelz, they gave us a leaflet about how common it is etc I just want to take my baby home!!! Really appreciate the advice for if it should happen again though!!!!! X
 
Eve, hope you get to take Saraya home soon. Poor girl! They should at least offer you a comfy seat.

SB, sounds like you had a great day.

Hann, we won't tell on you about the steak. I don't think it's that big of a deal anyhow as long as you know it's quality stuff. Enjoy! :)
 
Eve - I hope Saraya is okay, how scary for you! Sounds like Kelz has dome good advice there. I hope you get out soon, you must be so uncomfortable! Let us know how she gets on!

SB - hope the bouncing helps! Do you have a sweep booked in for tomorrow if you don't go into labour naturally?

Just been lying here not able to sleep and felt like I wad going to throw up and realised the baby was moving and it feels like it has moved to the left. Probably eon't stay that way, little monkey, but i can only hope!
 
Aaisrie I hope Saraya is feeling better soon, nothing worse than being in hospital for anything let alone for your daughter at this point in your pregnancy :hugs:

Poor Mrs Wez I hope things progress quickly for her, it must have been hard going home. But it is better than staying in hospital as then they want to start poking you and intervening.

Hann Sorry you are up and feeling unwell. I am aiming for the 16th lol but because the hospital will only let me go 1 week over I kept the 22nd to give me a bit more time to naturally. As for the steak, go for it. I stopped being fussy about what to eat a long time ago :)

SB my gosh you are one busy lady, I hope you get some time to recoup your energy before you go into labor.

BV it sounds like you need to take it easy too. although your baked goods do sound yummy. I just finished making raspberry coconut slice, somehow its just not as good as nanna's.

Nothing new here, just trying to get some washing dried while we have some sunny/windy weather. will keep popping in to check baby news!
 
Awww hope you can take her home today, i only stayed overnight but i guess it depends what caused it, hope shes feeling better soon. At least you'll know what to look out for when she's poorly next time, thats the best advice i ever got (from my mum lol shes the expert after me and my sis) she always says its better to have them too cool than too hot, a fit can happen so quick theres not always time to cool them down so i just do it automatically when ever shes a bit off now. Even though i knew what it was i've still never felt panic like it!

Hope your home soon so you can all rest x
 
Thanks for the support girls, they decided that I was too pregnant for a chair and wheeled a bed in at 4am so I got a couple of hrs sleep. Totally exhausted today and my zofran is at home so feel horrendously sick. Just waiting on the drs coming round to see what's happening

:hugs: Eve, I hope she's OK and you get to come home soon. It must have been quite scary :( Hope you're both OK xxx
 
OH WOW DM had her baby too.. all you girls now going into labour are filling me with tears and goosebumps... its amazing xxxxxxxx
 
Wez – poor you being sent home. Hope you are ok and managing the pain alright. Thinking of you and can’t wait to hear your news. :hugs:

Any word from Clare overnight?

BV – loving all of your baking. Between us we could open a cake shop I think!

Simmy – so glad you had a great night out, once you get into the swing of it the parties cna be quite fun. But you’re right, it’s probably one of the last ones before baby comes. Next weekend and then for 5 more days after that we have a large Indian wedding for our cousin with lots of parties so I will be going to all of them assuming baby hasn’t come yet – at 39 weeks, ahhh!!!!!

And yes, we did go to Gifto’s!!!!!! We love the food there and used to go there years ago – had a lovely lamb and chicken tikkia platter, then I scoffed down a huge naan bread to myself with the mains :nope:. We got enough for take away though and it’s already frozen!

Eve – sorry to hear about your daughter and glad they bought you a bed to sleep on. I hope she is feeling better this morning. Big hugs. Xxx

Beth – sounds like a busy day yesterday. Hope you managed to rest up last night.

Hann – hope you managed to get back to sleep and that the sickness stopped.

MM - where in Berkshire did you live? I love living round here!

AFM – I MUST stop eating, seriously. I ate so much yesterday I have put on nearly 1 kg in a day. Today the healthy eating starts – no more large meals out or cookies/brownies etc. Please try and keep me in check or I will balloon!

Was up in the night (usual loo trip) and had some period cramps again in the night – I was actually excited to have them and wish there were more signs. Oh well.

Today – having a BBQ with in-laws (must not eat too much) then a few jobs around the house – plan on washing the remaining baby clothes as the weather is so lush!

xx

Eve, i hope your daughter is ok and you guys get home soon.

MrsWez, hope your doing ok too and Jonathon is nearly here :)

I've just returned from the hospital. I know this may sound crazy but my little lady went crazy for 3 hours straight, constantly moving to the point i was feeling very sick and started to panic as i'd never felt so much movement. Went in & got checked, sods law she calmed down but i'm only 1/5ths palpable now & i had a few contractions whilst i was there do fingers crossed she's moving in the right direction & will arrive before fri!!! Off to try & get a wee nap xxc
