June Bundles of Joy - 2016

Forums New posts
Thinking of you Joey - I hope everything goes smoothly and you've got your little boy in your arms in no time :hugs:
 
I think if you were to later go into active labour they'll get him back Joey. Otherwise it's recommending that you both rest, as though that's possible on A ward...

Sending lots of luck Lavochain!
 
Hoping things are progressing smoothly for you Joey.

Lavochain - any news?
 
I hope things progress for you joey. It's my worst nightmare being left alone in hospital.

My bp was totally normal over three separate readings so they sent me home. Rupert was also quite happy on the monitor so no concerns at all.
I just must be suffering for the hot weather, I'm so thankful that I'm not due in August!

I also learned that I'm 2/5ths engaged now so that may explain the pains I've been getting. Thank you all for the support. :)
 
Glad to hear your BP was normal Lavochain. I love your chosen name by the way. Xx

Joey, I hope you get going before they send hubby home. Good luck. Xx
 
Glad everything is good lavochain, the name Rupert is adorable!

Thinking of you Joey can't wait for more updates X
 
Lavochain - glad to hear everything went well and that your blood pressure has dropped to normal again. I also love the name Rupert :)


AFM - I repacked my hospital bags as I'd originally just thrown things in. Just need her to make an appearance now! I'm sure this heat is partly to blame for the constant braxton hicks, can't wait to be done with them!

The orange bag is staying in the car as it'll only be needed if I stay overnight.
 
What's in the orange bag vanilla? Yeah I'm nosey. I'm worried I haven't packed enough overnight stuff. I packed Pjs and a toothbrush and I'm not sure what else tbh. Maybe I should look at it again.

Lavo that's good news =) bloody heat though !

Spare pyjamas (waiting to be delivered so yet to go in) because I'll need them if I stay overnight, I find the wards so hot that I get sweaty and I'm pretty sure I had at least one pad leak last time

a wash bag with travel sized shampoo and bodywash and a travel toothbrush/toothpaste

spare underwear

extra maternity pads

spare going home top incase I get poop on it like last time

spare outfit for dd


Not sure if to pack a towel too?




the purple bag is my ebay bag for around £6 :haha:
 
Hope you're well Joey and Starlight and anyone else who may have started labouring last night.
 
Almost finished packing my hospital and bubs bag, so hard to know what to take!
 
Pixie - I can't believe G is 4 weeks old today!

I'll pack a towel I think just incase they don't have any and it'll just make things easier. I had a bath straight after having ds so I'm hoping for similar.


I hope things have gone well for starlight and joey :)
 
I didn't shower after having DS I think maybe because I had a spinal and catheter still in? But two women gave me a bed bath wash down type thing and changed all my clothes and underwear :oops: I totally forgot about that until reading this now. I hate all the indignity that comes with childbirth :haha:

Lol teeny I would get packing quickly!

Hospital bags looking good vanilla I also have a cheap ebay owl pattern hold-all for mine :haha:

Really hoping to hear some updates from joey and starlight today..

Anyone else going into labour? I definitely had lots of Brixton hicks yesterday, I've never ever had them before but it was lots of irregular tightenings and bump going rock hard. Uncomfy but not particularly painful. Really hope it's a sign the real things could come before Tuesday. Also have super sore boobs today:shrug:
 
I have a midwife appointment in an hour, but as I'm a second time mum apparently I can't get a sweep until 41 weeks. I am so so miserable and unconfortable, I can't sleep in this heat despite having no covers and a fan on full all night, and my 3yo has been up and down every night until 10ish (so 3 hours after bedtime) and up at 5... I am so past it now, I NEED this baby out. The walk to nursery was more than I could manage really and now I have to walk twice as far (and back) to the midwife, when she won't even help me. :cry:
 
It's quite early for me but every day I think "oh is this something". And it isn't haha. Today it's the constant period pain and back ache. Still having shooty foof or lightening crotch haha. Very painful. It's not occasional either. I just watched an entire episode of sex and the city and it was just one after the other. Keep trying to find a way to sit or stand so it stops happening as its very sore !

My husband has borrowed my car as his was squealing... ugh. So I'm not going anywhere all day. He dropped our eldest at school on his way to work and my mil will pick him up. So I'm just going to sit and watch an entire season of sex and the city . Thank you sky lol.
 
Vanilla I know! Still 3 weeks till her due date :haha: It feels strange because she's only been home for two weeks - it kind of feels like the the first two weeks didn't happen. Although I had to go to the maternity unity yesterday on see the trial Dr and as soon as I saw the NICU sign above the door my stomach turned over. Apparently I'm not quite over it yet, I think I'm just ignoring it :dohh:

Urgh tink I didn't have a shower either. I had G at 11.30 pm on Thursday but I was in high dependency until 6pm on Friday and I wasn't allowed to stand up so I didn't get a shower till Saturday morning. I was so gross! My poor dh had to help me change and clean up and a trainee removed my catheter so there was an audience :-( not classy at all!

Oh bless you angel :hugs: do you think you could change her mind? You're past your due date so I just don't see why it should matter? You could just cry at her? It was a lot cooler here overnight so hopefully the weather is cooling for a while :hugs:
