That's funny! Well we hopefully won't have to wait too much longer to find out!!
I always saw myself with a girl but gregs family are all boys so I've got it in my head that it willbe a boy!
 
I'm kind of hoping we get the girl as she'd be totally fussed over but I'd love a little boy too!

I'm feeling a million times better today about everything, think spending time with Greg has given me some perpective around the time scales and that I just need to wait until baby is ready, whenever that may be! I'm sure my mind will go back to the crazy in a few days but it's nice not to be stressing for now!

Little girls are great to dress up like dollies, little boys LOVE mummy....


Hann when you have a minute could you update the front page of grads? I have worn Martin down re Sophie's middle names. She is now Sophie Kathleen Ruth Judge :D

Ruth was my Nanny's middle name
 
Thanks for the supportive words, ladies. Normally my husband is very caring and considers my feelings, but I suppose if I don't say something he might think it's okay to let me take care of Jillian 95% of the time. He took some time this afternoon to help me with the birth announcements, which I've wanted to finish this whole week. Then he said he'd put together the glider he bought me last night. Now I have some time to myself because he put the baby down for a nap in the bedroom with him. I can't nap because I'm too wired, so it gives me a chance to catch up with posts and sort through magazines that have been piling up. It's nice to have a moment to myself, even though I'm still not showered and it's nearly dinner time. At least I flossed and brushed my teeth :)

Sharique, Emilia is beautiful. I love the blonde hair just like yours.

Doodle, hope Naomi gets better soon. It's very common for babies to get jaundice. I think if it would have been serious they would have kept her in the hospital longer and put her under special lights. It's probably a small amount.

Clarea, glad Niamh's jaundice cleared up :)

Eve, it's awful that Chris left you guys at 3mo. I can't imagine how tough that would have been.

DM, that's a hilarious description of Sophie. That's pretty much what Jillian does too, although yesterday and today we've seen more awake time out of her. Your nickname reminded me of something a professor said about babies - that they're babbling poo machines.
 
Of course I will do it now - lovely name!

I'm still hoping to see an update on Britt so that I can add her baby on too. I so hope she has given birth now.
 
BV I'm so glad that you are feeling a bit better and that your husband has taken Jillian for a while, even if you haven't got the chance to sleep. Just look after yourself too and you know where we are. I have a feeling I'll have a lot of time on my hands over the next week and a half or so. Bound to be permanently on here!!
 
Hann I had phantom kicks for months because I missed Saraya kicking!! I know as uncomfortable as I am right now I'll totally miss being pregnant within the first day of giving birth!!

BV yea it was a pretty awful time, it was worse that she was hospitalised at 4mo as failure to thrive and I was with her the whole time in the hospital [for like a month] and he only visited twice!! But we can't change the past and he's an amazing daddy now and has been a lot more involved this pregnancy which is great!!!
 
been having some pains the past half hour or so. not tightenings like i have been having but period type pains etc. so even if nothing progresses tonight, at least things are improving right.
 
BV sorry I missed your post earlier. You sound like you're under an awful lot of pressure hun. Am worried about you! Is the feeding schedule on that Jillian is creating or one the hospital have set you? Is she feeding better now? Is she putting on weight? It seems to me that they have made things really rather hard for you. Sorry, a million questions but I can't help but wonder if they would be better letting Jillian dictate what she needs, but then that's my opinion and I'm no professional. I just worry that they are making an already difficult job unnecessarily hard for you. Big love to you honey.
 
Samzi I'm in the same boat tonight, major period pain/pressure & feeling like my pelvis is gonna snap in 2 but not so much tightening
 
Me too with the pains - baby has felt stupidly low all day and I've had cramping. We DTD though and since then I've had a lot more pains. Its all a tease though I know that!
I don't even bother considering that it could be anything else now! I'll have a hell of a shock when it does happen!
 
Hann mine doesn't feel like it's anything either, just freakin' pain!! OUCH now stop LOL
 
It's been a full week since Katie was born! Can't believe how fast it's going!

Breastfeeding is finally working pretty smoothly, Katie is a pro at it and my nipples are learning how to not bleed and cry every time she wants to feed.

I've lost 24 pounds so far and my belly is almost back to pre-pregnancy! Thought I'd post some pictures, I'm so happy it's going down so quickly! (And I have an innie belly button again!!)

Wow SB!! You look amazing!! I'm not hopeful I will look in any way that good!! This was me at 4mo PP after Saraya!!

I'm still a few pages behind but going to fall asleep any minute.

Just wanted to thank you all for the happy due date messages and to let you know that there's no news from me! Just spent the day distracting ourselves!

Happy due date to you too Fifi.

And congrats to Sharique on baby Emilia, lovely photos. Really sorry it's not been the start you were expecting but good that you are seeing the positives!

xx
