Lil' October Pumpkins 2013

Ditto... Was so sure I would do the EPO and everything but realistically they don't help labor to happen earlier, they just help ripen it a little and I'm already ripening on my own anyway. It's only for 2-3 weeks... Totally doable than 20 weeks right?!?!?!?
 
Ive been feeling off for a good few days now. Today Im totally off food and having tummy and back ache. Got that feeling I need toilet (loose stools) and weird crampy pain.

Im laying down now with DS hoping Ill feel better after some sleep.

Last thing I want is to get properly ill or poorly :(
 
Just for info im not using epo for induction im just super scared of tearing on birth and have found so many stories of it helping ladies in labour im doing it!!

Midwifes also recommend it. It has the same effect as sperm so its not invasive...and i have no chance of any sperm here DH is waaaay against sex now lol
 
Update!!!!

Waters gone!!

Ill have a september baby :D x
 
Yep, it was no joke when someone said it comes in threes! Woohoo, go sini!!!

Lady, yep it is correct that it helps with loosenig scar tissue but I do know of many that still tore even after taking EPO. I just don't want ladies to have false hope for EPO helping along labor faster because it doesn't do that.
 
Good luck Sini! Looking forward to hearing back from you
 
Good luck Sini!!! :) and PTR I agree with you about the EPO
 
Thanks ladies :)

Im sorting myself out at the moment. Showered, shaved, DYED MY HAIR (yes Im vain :D) and about to paint my nails.

I got this panicky feeling I wont have time to keep up appearances when baby is here so Im doing crazy stuff 2am in the morning :D

Once I stop leaking waters Ill try get a bit of rest in :)
 
Omg sini. That's amazing. Good luck, and well done for looking good! I think it will be the last thing on my mind!
 
I plan to do the same sini. Gl.

I have not dyed my hair since I got pregnant so I have about 4inches of grey. Planning on dying it tomorrow and then having it cut at the salon.

Good luck, Sini! Early congrats on pumpkin #3! Can't wait to see pictures :)

I haven't had a hair cut since December. I think its high time to do something about that as well!

I've been feeling sore and crampy all week. Intense back pain today, especially. I hope its good sign she's getting nice and cozy for her arrival in a week or so. I really wanted an October baby, but at this point I'm so uncomfortable I just want her here safely ASAP.
Her new position makes my legs worthless half the time and it feels like there's an ice pick in my lower back. For awhile it would help to do stretches or lay/sit and now it just doesn't matter. I've tried pelvic tilts and all kind of stuff, but this is one stubborn baby, just like her daddy.

Oh yeah! Nesting has officially kicked in. I took a shower to relieve some soreness and the only thing I could think about was how I need to recaulk the bathtub. At midnight.
 
Good luck sini!!

I hadn't even thought about getting myself presentable before birth. While we were ttc I dyed my hair back to my natural colour so I don't have to worry about that. But I haven't had it cut since last year sometime so it desperately needs doing. I can almost sit on it at the moment. Although, I must admit, it's not in too bad condition.

This baby won't be here before October, and I'm starting to worry that he/she won't make the big arrival until November. But I'm getting so uncomfortable now I just want them here. Safely of course. I did dream I was in labour last night though. Reminds me I need to put the waterproof mattress protector on the bed.

The past couple of days all I've been doing is eating and sleeping. Like no matter what I ate, I was hungry after. And constantly tired. TMI But then I've also had upset bowels and had some quite urgent loose movements. I've increased my fluids because I don't want to get dehydrated but wasn't sure if its just a normal part of late pregnancy now or if I'd actually picked up a bit of a tummy bug?
 
I think a lot of ppl have been like that girly. I keep swinging between being blocked up and then having to run to the loo! I think it is just another late pregnancy joy!
 
Copy/paste from third tri



She is here!!!

Nila Josefina born at 10.13am at home, weighing at a respectable 3.6kg/7pounds9, on the bathroom floor whilst on phone to emergency services.

Contractions picked up out of nowhere and there was not a chance to reach hospital 45mins away. She came out in 2 pushes with the cord round her neck and wasnt breathing.

Luckily she is ok. I lost roughly a litre of blood and have 4-5 big tears but apart from that we are great.

Cant believe how perfect she is at 37+2.

Will post pics another day. They keeping me and LO in for awhile to see if I need a blood tranfusion.

Thank you for all your support and wish you all labour dust! Xx
 
Congratulations Maze and Sini! Wow these babies don't want to wait until October. Hope you both are doing well :) xx
