June Bundles of Joy - 2016

They've stopped :cry: no sleep and I was so sure this was it, came down to try to eat breakfast and the contractions just went. :cry: I don't know what to do now.
 
Oh I'm sorry Angel - what a tease but your body is gearing up. Can you have a sleep this morning and then have a long walk?
 
Angel something similar happened when I had DS.. Painful contractions all through the night getting more intense and regular, woke up and had my show, more contractions.. then they stopped completely! But after a few hours of nothing they fired up again big time and I had my son 12 hours after. Fingers crossed they will return xx
 
Boo Georgia is exactly the same but she has been like that since she was in hospital. Probably from a week old I think. She just grunts and makes a woodpecker noise and strains till her face is red and then goes back to sleep. Most nights I end up waking her for a feed because I've got sick of.jumping out of bed and she's still fast asleep. I feel so much more relaxed in the night than when I had xander though and I think that's because if I wake up I can hear her.

She's not upset or in pain and she settles again so I haven't worried over it. Plus she did it all through SCBU (not sure about NICU since I wasn't with her as much) so I think they would have mentioned it if it was an issue :shrug:

Angel I'm so sorry! Fingers crossed you're just getting a rest before round two :hugs:
 
Angel - it's quite normal, albeit infuriating, I'm sure they'll pick up again in the day :hugs:
 
Oh no Angel, sorry everything stopped :( hope it all starts again soon!

Boo, it's not the same thing but could be worth considering - Róise was snuffling around this morning indicating that she might want to wake soon & feed. Of couse she dropped off soundly again when I lifted her so I swaddled her legs & put her back down & she's still asleep 2.5 hours later.
 
I dno much about the grunting; i would have assumed either some kind of wind or constipation but if it isn't that then i don't know.

I only just past being "full term" and i'm irrationally annoyed at any one whom dares to have a baby before me. lmao. I'm scrolling down f.b just now like " ohh bugger off" when i saw a birth announcement. I'm clearly just a bitter old cow lol.

There is a girl on my f.b who recently(i suppose not so recent now but ya know) found out she was pregnant at like 29 weeks, and they gave her a due date that is FIVE days before me. So obviously i am enraged and if she goes into labour before me i will probably throw a strop :haha: I mean COME ON.
 
Wow 29 weeks not even knowing, I cannot imagine how lovely that would be!! I would be irrationally angry too!
 
I am so jealous of everyone's aches and pains that can be attributed to labour. I have nothing going on and I'm fed up!
I know I'm not due yet, but come on baby already! Xx
 
I can't decide whether I should be trying to relax and rest and get the oxytocin flowing, or going for a long walk/deep clean my kitchen floor!? There is so much conflictinf advice. I have had a nap and a warm bath and only getting 1-2 milder contractions and hour so maybe it is time to try being more proactive again. My 3yo has been watching scooby doo for nearly 2 hours anyway... :blush:
 
Yeah Micah was 10 days over but I had no false starts.. In fact my waters broke and I still had no contractions and had to be induced. So this is all new to me.
 
I know a bath is known for slowing things down so I wouldn't have again soon unless you're in active labour. I think with the symptoms and contractions you've been having this is most likely the real thing.
 
I agree with vanilla, i think the plug plus the contractions etc probably mean it wont be long, it's just decided to screw you about.
 
Rhi... I feel your pain. My friend (with my exact due date) had her baby last week and my cousin (with a due date a week before me) had her baby yesterday.... And I just sit here Like 'that's it I'm going to be pregnant forever!'

:haha: yup! you are totally entitled to be miffed they skipped the line:haha:

one of my oldest friends is pregnant but she isn't due until the first week of August, HOWEVER she has the option of a csection as she had one previous so she is opting for that, she doesn't have the date yet but surely it will be at like 38 weeks ?! which puts her at mid July? and if i have another induction then it wont be until like the 9th/10th of july. I will rage if some how my friend due in august gets her baby first. Although i'm being silly as she wont be 38 weeks until like the 18th of July but look how close that is !! :haha: she has text me twice this week like "whens your due date exactly" and i'm ignoring her cos it will just be so she can badger me and make overdue comments etc. :growlmad:
 
My back is so sore :( I can actually see a slightly swollen patch at the bottom of my spine in the mirror, almost the size of my palm, is that normal?!
 
Thanks everyone I'm beginning to think he's getting a bit constipated due to increasing his formula vs breast milk I remember this with his brother...

Angel do you have swollen legs or ankles? That swelling sounds like sacral oedema which is common in pregnancy. All the glamorous
 
Getting contractions again now, Dave is coming home as I am finding it hard to look after Micah while in pain.
