~*~* July Sunbeams *~*~43 Babies Here So Far!!! 25 Boys / 18 Girls

well my DD got worse today she threw up what felt like a gallon of liquid all over me and her we both had to get in the shower it was horrible!!! my hubby thought it was hysterical cuz I was covered in vomit gagging..so I made him clean the recliner she puked all over then he didn't think it was so funny :haha: shes at the dr now we're hoping its just a 24 hr bug or something..i'll be devastated if shes sick when I go into labor and cant come visit me..ive never been away from her for more than 24 hours and the time I was away from her for 24 hours I cried like a baby from the moment she left until she got back home and she was with her dad the whole time!!


:hugs: oh nooooo! Hopefully like you say it's a bug and she will be well soon.
Try not to think of worst case scenarios. I'm sure she will be well soon and will be able to come and visit. Hope you don't get the bug too! X
 
Had my appt this morning and doc swept my membranes!!! She asked, of course, and I uncertainly said, "OK, if you are gentle." Didn't hurt me at all. She said I would be spotting after, but then pulled her fingers out and there was bright red blood everywhere!! NOT what I was expecting! It dripped all over my skirt so I had to wash my skirt right there in her office :wacko: I told her I only had a panty liner on and she said that was enough. So DH drove me to my B&B group and by the time I got there my liner and panties were drenched :shock: I did not expect that. I had to buy a sanitary pad from the washroom dispenser...

I talked to the MW about it and she said it's totally normal for that kind of a bleed after a sweep - so that calmed me down and now it's nearly gone. Whew!
My contractions have been increasing, I went walking around the garden and just feeling like something is going to happen. I woke up giddy this morning too and have been excited and giddy all day :happydance:
DH picked me up and we went for the non-stress test, which was actually kind of cool, watching baby react and seeing how my contractions are pretty regular and getting strong! :D The lovely nurse said she wouldn't be surprised to see me come back in a few hours, but I told her we are planning on staying home as long as possible so maybe later tonight or something.

eeeeeeeeek! I'm pumped! But just going to head down for a rest as I might have a long night ahead of me :thumbup:
 
Good luck floating!

My dd caught something that has been going around and has a fever now too...the Dr gave her a shot in the butt to stop the vomiting thank God..her and hubby are sleeping in the basement tonight so I get the whole bed to myself and silence all night!! Unfortunately I'm having contractions so I may not get much rest

Yaay for progress... but hopefully the little one feels better before you go into labour proper! I can imagine how you feel. I've never left mine long before either and would be crushed if she couldn't come to the hospital.

Floating - sounds promising! Good luck!
 
Caro I can't decide about a sweep either! My OB might give me the option on Friday and I don't know what I'd do if she did!
 
At the hospital waiting for them to check my cervix its. The same Dr that did it Friday and hurt bad...I'm not looking forward to this
 
tlh, hope DD is better very soon! good luck at the hospital

floating, oooh sounds like the sweep was a good one! :D. I had that sort of reaction to the one that worked with alex!

motherearth, you sound like a saint putting up with a teenager so close to your due date! don't panic at all about the jobs, do the essential ones first (nappies ;)) then the others if and when you feel able. Things like a bookshelf will def wait until way after bubba is born, or like someone suggested deligate to DH!!

I'm gonna decide on sweep at my apt, see what bp is doing and how low bubba is :).

Right off to have a shower and freshen up just incase I do take the sweep :haha: xxx
 
Had my midwife appointment today and she asked if I wanted a sweep and I said ok, then she looked at my notes and went oh your only one day over you have to be two days over for one!! So I have to have one next week but the midwife clinic is fully booked so I have to try and get an appointment in a different town! Then they will be in charge of organising my induction! Not too impressed at that. Just have to hope that baby Charlie decides to arrive before then!
 
Baby Clark came into the world yesterday, shocking most of us by being an 8lb girl! She was 8 lbs even and 21 inches long. She made her debut at 4:39p after I started pitocin at around 7:30 am! She is gorgeous and we are so very in love! I'll try to get pictures and a birth story soon! She shares her July 8th birthday with my best friend from grade school through high school and my grandfather who passed away 23 years ago.

Good luck today Alice! Hope you get to meet your LO soon.

Good luck to everyone considering/having sweeps done in the upcoming days!
 
Congrats on your little girl Nenna!

Goodluck with your induction Alice! Can't wait to know if your bump is :pink: or :blue:
 
massive congrats nenna!!

alanna...wow that seems harsh! 1 measly day! and a right faff now, hope you get it all sorted xxx
 
Our little girl arrived 29/6 Emelia Grace weighing 6lb12oz we are so happy :)
 
midwife apt went fine, i'm sooo heading towards going overdue again though I reckon :dohh:. Baby 3/5ths engaged now but 100% back to back :wacko:, despite me leaning forwards with my legs wide apart to paint my toes earlier today! you'd have thought that'd have shifted him/her!!

ah well, declined sweep today, will accept next tues if still no baby :) xx
 
I am refilling the paddling pool. My poor legs are going in!

Baby is estimated over 8lb at birth lol
