Hi ttc just had a quick peek at your chart, why on earth has it put your ov there? To me it looks like you o'd cd12??? You had your second dip and a positive opk on cd12?? It has put you oing at cd14 but there wasnt a dip, your cm had gone creamy and your opk was neg again, it doesnt make sense?? I'm lost with this ttc business it looks like you covered all bases though so fingers crossed xx

[MrsDuck]

Mrsd,I dont get many chances to be on here anymore, but I have been checking in on you and I just saw your update. I couldn't be happier for you Hun!! You have persevered so graciously through all of your challenges and are truly an inspiration on smiling in the face of adversity. I really cannot tell you enough how much I hope you get your rainbow ASAP now! You deserve it!!!!!

Tawn, i was just wondering about you the other day, wondering how things were with your new baby!!! Love your avatar pic! ADORABLE!!!

Hi hun! Sorry I have been out of the loop! BnB is much harder for me on my phone, it always loses my posts etc and I get frustrated trying to zoom in and stuff one handed while breastfeeding! LOL! But Madison is finally starting to settle in and is becoming one happy little baby, she is really so funny! SO full of personality, I just adore her. Doesn't sleep a wink, day or night, but I am learning that I really can survive on 2-3 hours a night

How are you hun? Any good symptoms yet? xxxx

 

[CherylC3]

Aw does she sleep 8 till 8 then bailey?x

Aw mrs d I hope u get a good sleeper hubby stayed at his mums last night to get a sleep he's really struggling with the sleep thing. But I'm like Tawn about 5-6 hours does me lol..x

[baileybubs]

Hi tawn! Madison looks like such a happy bubbly little baby, probably very much like her mummy I would imagine!!

Cheryl no Emilia sleeps from 7 til bout 5.30 and wakes once at about 2am at the moment. She is really good I'm very lucky.

Cath what a bummer Hun! That's crap.

Cupcake how are you and lbcc today?

 

[cupcake1981]

Hey bailey, I'm knackered, I'm done with work now but still have 3 weeks left, it's so exhausting working full time and being heavily preg

 

[baileybubs]

Aw I feel for you Hun, I finished at the stage you are because I was just so tired, I know it's not long to go but it must seem like an age to you! I know it did for me just try and rest an relax as much as you can whilst you aren't at work x

 

[CherylC3]

Aw cool bailey..x

Aw cath nightmare betvu wish u hadn't canceled it now. X

Cupcake I was done in at ur stage.. I finished at 33 wks Hun cos i was knacked. X

Well thts me sat down doing the dummy run the now till Leo falls asleep and I wouldn't wish a reflux baby on anyone I've had 2 outfit changes and Leo's had 3 all in half an hour. X

 

[baileybubs]

Lol, I love that phrasing Cheryl, the dummy run, we have that too at bedtime lol!

 

[CherylC3]

Aw I kno I now just sit in my room till he's sleeping cos it was far too tiring running up and down the stairs lol.. I'm a lazy bum.x

 

[baileybubs]

Haha I do exactly the same Cheryl!

 

[cupcake1981]

I can see me going a week early, my mat cover has started now and I'm handing over to her which is really tiring me out. I'm sure my final week ill be twiddling my thumbs watching the click cos she'll be doing everything, dull!!!

I'm off fri and mon tho so that'll be good to have a rest. Mum is taking me to get my hospital bag stuff on Monday, getting ansy about getting it packed. Any tips on things you guys needed but didn't have or things you really were greatful to have? X

 

[baileybubs]

To be honest I needed very little from my hospital bag lol! Definitely needed lots and lots of maternity pads, toiletries for you, a couple of nighties, I did actually drink an energy drink (not red bull lol, more like an isotope lucazade sport). Errrrm, music would have been nice. We didn't take my docking station and wish I had coz we ended up with the radio on and was rubbish most of the time!

Besides that its the usual stuff you read, we had to get extra coz we stayed 3 nights. My advice is just take enough for 24 hours. If you end up staying longer people can bring you more stuff.

Also I didn't want to eat, people mention taking snacks but even with the epi I didn't want to eat and then wasn't allowed anyway.

 

[CherylC3]

Take music I never and I wish we had some I bought a few things to wear giving birth in don't waste ur money just wear a hospital gown and I forgot shampoo and hairdresser I thot I'd be out the next day and I felt manky cos I couldn't wash my hair. Just take a few nappies cos they hav everything there. X

 

[Tawn]

For me my must haves were:

iPod dock with hypnobirthing music
A little handheld fan (which I propped facing me to cool down while laboring...Heaven!)
A filtered water bottle (so I could get water from the tap, I was so thirsty!!)
Cosy socks With grippy bottoms
And a few super comfy nighties which had easy access for bf'ing.
