June Bundles of Joy - 2016

Congrats Wish! I'm glad that your experience was better. My private scan was very enjoyable also.

I think I've had my first BH today, at least the first I've felt. It wasn't painful but very irritating. Rupert was moving about too which didn't ease things. He is such a wriggler and has huge feet by the feel of things.
 
So after a very irritating and stressful day I can finally post a scan update.

Baby girl is all fine and weighs in at 1lb! She wasn't very co-operative and we were in there ages.
Also, she is breech at the moment. :dohh: I know she has plenty of time to flip and I hope and pray she does. All of my others have been head down the whole time. I want a home birth again and really do not want a hospital birth. :nope:

So after a VERY stressful day for other reasons I can finally relax in the knowledge that baby girl is healthy, although a little naughty already! :cloud9: xx
 
Congratulations on team blue wish! Glad you had a better experience.. It's so gutting when you get someone rude for these types of things, I had a really rude, snappy GP do my sons 6 week baby check and it's always stuck in my mind, these things really supposed to be happy milestones and memories to look back on.
 
That's awful tinkerbelle, if someone had been snappy with me 6 weeks pp i think i would've had a meltdown!
 
Congrats on team blue wish.
Glad all was ok teeny - and loads of time for her to turn the right way -they're still moving around loads.
 
I'm glad the scan went well teeny :flower: they're still relatively small so will probably turn a few times before it becomes important.
 
Hello lovely mamas! I am (once again) horribly late to the game but thank you so much to the designer of the lovely June baby signatures. We are officially team blue! Excited for DS to have a brother to play with :)
 
Glad your scan went well Teeny!

Congratulations on :blue: southern!
 
I do the glucose test in 3 weeks. Any advice of what of expect?

My ob also mentioned getting the tdap shot. I'm up to date but she said the recommended for pregnant women to get it regardless because it helps pass immunity to baby. I'm all for vaccines, but getting it during pregnancy scares me. Has anyone done this?

I didn't get it during my last pregnancy and probably won't this time either. They also offered it to both me and my husband in the hospital right after I gave birth but we didn't get it. My son got all his vaccines though
 
Congratulations on team blue!

Starlight thr glucose test is fine, just really boring! It's just a blood test, a sugary drink (the drink differs from place to place) a loooong wait and another blood test.

I will definitely definitely be getting the vaccine. My nephew got whooping cough last year 2hen he was 4 weeks old and honestly it was terrifying. He was in isolation in the hospital for a week, for that time he wasn't allowed to be touched beyond feeding and changing. He had to have help breathing, he turned blue everyone he coughed for three months. My sister and her husband were too scared to sleep and he was so distressed when he couldn't breathe it was heartbreaking. My sister did have the vaccine when she was pregnant but with hindsight it was very likely she already had whooping couch when she got the jab, and she probably passed it on to her son so no way to avoid it really.

I don't think I've ever had the whooping cough vaccine, but I'll definitely be having it during pregnancy (not that I'm sure it'll do much good, I've already had three MMR vaccinations and I'm still not immune to rubella, I'll have two more once the baby is here)
