June Bundles of Joy - 2016

[Tinky_82]

Dory have you tried just cutting out anything creamy or with full fat milk? DS would always have reflux if I'd had something with cream in - i was worried he was lactose intolerant but it was just the cream.

Joey, great bump pic!

Dory, prayers that Georgia feels better soon

Mum2, glad to hear no OC! I hope the itching subsides. Sounds tough to deal with

Tinker belle, I'm going to stop working after baby girl shows up.

Karli, very exciting although the anxiety is understandable.

I had more brown colored plug come out. I'm not sure if the other snot looking stuff is discharge or plug, but we haven't dtd since September so it's not anything else that could be up there lol

 

[tinkerbelle93]

Karli I can completely relate I had a really traumatic time having DS and im just so anxious at the moment, I start freaking out and heart pounding every time I think im having signs of labour approaching. I really hope we both get lovely, relaxed positive birth experiences!

Gorgeous bump joey! Everyone seems to have a way more impressive bump than me, I feel tiny

Hope your DS isn't coming down with pox tinky. I'm not sure what they advice re new babies? I think if you've had it then baby is pretty much immune for the first few months due to you transferring antibodies in pregnancy? But not sure what they advice x

Loads of pressure for the past few days feels like constant tightenings!

Had lots of brown plug come away thought this morning something was starting but it led to more pressure and tightenings .. Few cramping pains but that's it just having more pressure still now pushing down and bump is solid rarely goes soft now.

Hoping this progresses I can't see how it wouldn't specially being overdue I'm very impatient now with it being near enough day 3!

 

[Rhi_Rhi1]

Awesome bump joey!

BEcy I really don't think it will be much longer. Fingers crossed. =)

Afm- still not term so I'm just sat about bored really. Still having alot of Braxton Hicks etc but nothing I can't cope with =) it's the pain in my foof I'm struggling to deal with tbh. I constantly feel like I'm going to wet myself =( like I'm desperate to "go" and this evening I got a pain so severe in my foof it felt like I had been full on kicked up there. I actually shouted out loud! It would have been very embarrassing if it had happened earlier in tesco haha. It keeps happening now but much milder. Very unusual pain tbh! Pregnancy is a funny thing haha

 

[Lil_Pixie]

Rhi it's not a water infection is it? I didn't realise they were a big deal but apparently they can bring on labour

You're so close to term now! I really hope you're not waiting too long. I feel a bit guilty that I was supposed to be popping up the end of the pack with you and vanilla - I've let the team down

Beccy I really hope things are starting for you

Tink and karli honestly I think you two are warriors! You're both so brave to be here doing it again. After having Georgia I can honestly say the emergency delivery and hemorrhage has scared me enough to never do it again. You're already doing it ladies, and there's so much to be proud of in that

 

[Lil_Pixie]

I'm really looking forward to there being more babies so I won't be the only one sitting up all night bored!

 

[mommyxofxone]

Starlight you haven't dtd since September?!?!?!

 

[karlilay]

Think I'm in labour ������

 

[Becyboo__x]

It's time girls

Had my show blood lots of it
Contractions started too I can't sleep through them

 

[Becyboo__x]

Cumon Karli 2 babies same day we can do it!

 

[Boo44]

Eek up doing the night feed are we having two babies tonight?!

 

[karlilay]

Omg, as if. This is hilarious. No signs from me just pain, every 6 or so minutes now from 1am, lasting about 40 seconds. Trying to let Jonny sleep, but I think I should probably get up and ring labour ward. Thing is, I tried to feel my cervix earlier and couldn't reach it, so now terrified I'm going to turn up at the hospital and be sent home also terrified if I don't go hospital, it's gunna go really fast and I'm not going to get there in time.

 

[Becyboo__x]

Hope it is it for you Karli
I woke at 2ish with period type pain which was aching like mad I slept through it thankfully but woke again saw blood and then I've had painful contractions every 10 minutes since I've had to get up ..

Be ringing my mum soon I think to come over especially after the blood

Keep us updated Karli!!

 

[Dory85]

Becy, if it's more blood than a show I would ring up. It happened with my first and I had to go straight in go be checked.

Can't believe 2 of you are in labour! It's 0430am and I am suddenly WIDE awake. Bet I can't get back to sleep because I'm checking for updates. Good luck ladies!

I can't remember who asked about dairy but basically cows milk protein is the most common allergy in infants and the symptoms can include a number of things that G has but it could just be coincidence too. There is only one way of knowing but a lot of studies show even if there is no allergy, dairy can be a big trigger for reflux. Honestly, I don't think it is dairy but I wouldn't know unless I tried. I think it's simply down to her being premature and a bit under developed.

Ladies - time to get these babies here safely. I am thinking of you both!

 

[Becyboo__x]

I'm having a home birth so been told to stay home
Ring midwife when I'm 5 mins or a little more apart contraction wise there 10 at the minute

It's my show not ridiculous red blood saw the mucus and blood more bloody just water blood when I go now but pains consistent

 

[Dory85]

How exciting Becy :-D
Hopefully you'll have a swift and straightforward time. You'll have your baby here soon!

 

[Becyboo__x]

5 minutes apart now

Rang midwife so there all on the way
Forgot how painful this is

So if I'm not around for most day you know why

 

[Squig34]

Good luck Karli & Becy!

Great bump Joey

Dory, so sorry to hear that Georgia's reflux is getting worse & she's suffering so much. My friend had to go dairy free with her second baby as it was going through her bm.

Joey, we're in til at least Monday - Adam had extra digits on both his hands & one foot & Róise is exactly the same. Adam had no chromosomal abnormalities & Róise is checking out perfectly (although her chromosomes haven't been tested) but the paediatrician wants to have a chat with the geneticist anyway.

Boo, I a really enjoying getting to know my baby but she's been really sleepy today & won't breastfeed so we're having to supplement with formula. She's away basically being force fed at the moment I don't know how they expect her to bf when they're forcing her to eat food she doesn't want every 3 hours? I got no sleep last night (not due to Róise, who slept loads) so I haven't had the energy tonight to do much more than try for a couple of minutes to latch her on for each feed (she took a good bf at 8.15pm; that was the first & only all day). Hopefully i'll have more energy today & we'll have more success. I plan to keep trying with bf but I hate that she has to be force fed in the meantime. I can hear her crying; I feel like crying too!

I'm pretty stiff today so sleeping is difficult again but I'm resting more at least than last night. Plus have to get up every 3 hours to feed But I was at least able to take a shower!

 

[karlilay]

I'm just ignoring mine and trying to sleep in between they're really painful though and every 5-6 minutes for 40-50 seconds. I'm gunna have to get up and out f my warm bed and face reality arnt I
