Knocked Up Naughties

Had a bit of bloody mucus this morning (sorry if TMI), probably just a result of my internal yesterday, but it gave me a bit of pause!:dohh:

I still haven't packed the bag, I suspect I'll be packing in between contractions at the rate I'm going!:haha::haha:

Blondie, DH is definitely less interested in the moving bump than I am, although he does feel the baby and talk to it before bed. I agree that men don't truly start the bonding process until after baby is born. You know what they say, a woman becomes a mom at conception, and a man becomes a dad at birth! Hang in there, chick, you are anything but a freak!:hugs:

Well, my substitute teacher who is covering me for mat leave came to school today to shadow me, so now at least I know that whenever seahorse decides to show up, she's ready to take over, which is a big relief. So, as far as I'm concerned, the sooner the better, roll on labor!!:happydance:
 
I didn't have any internals with Freya until... umm... I guess the midwife did a 'sweep' when she was about a week late, and then the specialist had a bit of a poke around before deciding I'd have to have a c section. That was it really.
I thought the whole process was going to involve a selection of strangers peering at my bits - glad I was wrong!! :rofl:
 
thats the next thing for me when ever i go to the loo i hoping when i stand up i'll see my plug staring back at me, at this point i will completely freak out with excitement . (sorry if TMI guys) sad i know but we have goals in life and that one is high up there.

Freyasmum: will you be having a C section again or can you have a VBAC? (sorry if it's a little personal and you don't have to answer if it is hun)
 
evening ladies.

i can't believe how close its getting for Blondie, Caitlen and Tori. we should start placing our bets on who will go first.

when i was having DD i had my bag packed at 34 weeks but that was only because i had a labour scare and had to have steroid injections. she ended up being 3 days overdue though! they suspected i was in labour because of how strong my BH were on the monitor.

think i will pack at around 34 weeks again just to be safe. BH are so strong now that i have to stop what i'm doing and sit down. they are not painful just erm...very tight :rofl:

I've got a midwife appointment tomorrow and i'm dreading being asked about the swine flu jab. i hope she doesn't try to put pressure on me to have it and i hope its not offered there and then because i'm not ready to decide yet. i'm swaying more towards not having it though. getting bloods done at long last (well i hope so anyway).
 
gosh you girls are getting so close now, i wonder who will be the first.

im going with my friend tom for her 12 week scan, hope all is ok after her bleeding at 6 week, gosh it seams so long ago now since my 12 week scan.
 
well ladies i had my first drs app today!... he said so far everything is looking good... that relieved some stress!... i have my first ultrasound next friday and then i go bac to see him the 23rd of november... my due date is june 20th 2010... so im still praying everything is gunna gooo goodddd!!!
 
Freyasmum: will you be having a C section again or can you have a VBAC? (sorry if it's a little personal and you don't have to answer if it is hun)

Hey Tori. I don't know what will happen yet. I have a feeling it'll be another section, and I'm OK with that.
After I had Freya the midwife (not my nice usual one) suggested it would be a good idea to get an x-ray of my pelvic bone (I think) because it was likely that it is mis-shapen. Because I wasn't going to have any more children though I never bothered. Who knew?

I'll talk to my nice midwife about it today.
 
Me again. Back from the midwife.
Everything is just fine. :happydance:

She found the heartbeat SO easily. Gave me a Bounty pack, and information about VBAC.
Guess I've got some thinking to do.
 
Oooh, Freyasmum, so glad it went well!:happydance:

Mjt, so exciting, it's always a relief when the docs tell you it all looks good!:thumbup:

Tori, so funny about watching for your plug!:haha:

I haven't had anything since this morning, and am wearing a pantyliner just to make sure, so I think it was just from the doc rummaging. As much as I'm anxious to see the seahorse, I don't mind waiting a bit longer, as there's still some things I'd like to get done. I feel good, and haven't even had any Bh's that I'm aware of, so I think I must have a ways to go!:shrug:
 
No sign of a plug here but loads and loads of really runny discharge - don't think it's waters though as no smell to it (TMI I know but you have to check these things :rofl: :rofl: )

I'm not allowed to go into labour until after next Thursday night as DH is away at a Morrissey gig in Leeds with his best mate and I'll be home alone overnight (providing there is no sign of baby arriving before he leaves that is!). As soon as he is back from that then it will be mission baby eviction in full swing :rofl: :rofl:

I'm off down to Nottingham to see my sister tomorrow to get some bump photos done by her and so won't be back until Sunday evening so don't panic if I'm quiet for a couple of days :rofl: :rofl:
 
MJT congrats on the docs appointment, all should be feeling more real now

Freyasmum, Glad you appointment went well, My heart sank the first time i heard Georges HB, good luck with the research on VBAC there is a whole load of threads on here.

Caitlenc you can't denie it you've been doing the same :haha: I didn't have BH's with DD i've had a few with this one but this is normal with your second.

Well my DH went to see his mum yesterday, which i was ok with until about 9 when the :cry: set in, Bloody hormones. So i'm going to my mums which is only and hour and a half away so she can keep and eye on me. so think i set out early afternoon.

But before i do i will have to pack for me DD and also the hospital bag (s)
Best get started

Aw, Tori, hope seeing your Mom makes you feel better!:hugs:


Grrrrr, very tired today, truly wish I didn't have to go to work today.:cry:
 
Right all hospital bags now packed except for things like hair brush, toothpaste and make up which I will just need to chuck in at the last minute :happydance:

Car seat and base are ready to be put in the car - which will be done tomorrow morning as we are taking it with us down to Nottingham just to be on the safe side :)

NOthing else to do now today except for play on the internet and sleep :)

oh you have a lovely bump Blondie very jealous as i look like a whale now and walk like one (well as you would imagen a whale to walk if they could)

well Baby bag and mine is done whoo hoo i think I just need to add in entertainment such as mags/books etc and also the oils and snacks but will leave the snacks to last min as i will eat them all before the day:haha:,

are you packing a DH bag? if so what are you putting init?
 
Tori - we only live 5 minutes from the hospital so we have decided to just put a spare t-shirt, toothbrush and some deordorant in my bag for DH so he can have a quick freshen up.

Snacks, magazines and labour bits and pieces will be added to my bag (though probably thrown in a carrier bag) closer to the time.
 
thanks ladies... and good luck to al lu ladies who r ready to pop ne minute now lol... im sure its been a long bumpy road for all of us and im just praying for the best for all of us!...
