A little advice to everyone talking/thinking about birthing plans from someone who has been through it.. but you can totally take it or leave it...

If it's possible, try to be as open as you can about what is going to happen. I never wrote up a birthing plan as I had an idea in mind of what I wanted but thought I was open to whatever happened. Things, obviously, did not go at all according to plan and it was/is still difficult to accept. Yes, I have a beautiful daughter and we both ended up okay but delivering her was far from what I had envisioned and that loss of control/loss of my "plan"/vision has been difficult, especially since I am 99% sure we are not going to ever try to have another one (because of the risk.) I think that if I had been really set on any particular birthing plan it would have been even harder to accept what ended up happening. I really hope that all of you end up having easy/natural/according to plan births!

I am trying to think what else has been going on today...

Cheryl, Gus is adorable, love the coat!!

Cupcake, I hope you get to find out the gender as early as possible! I don't have a boy/girl feeling for you yet.

Tawn, how was life of Pi? Did you have an easy day today??

Bailey, I had 3rd Tri morning sickness as well but mine never really went away, even in 2nd Tri. I hope it eases for you! That combination of being so hungry and so sick is never fun!

Cath, I hope that you had a good dinner! I hope your OPKs are ever darker from here!!!

MrsD, I hope you were able to get some nourishment and that your throat is feeling better.

AFM, I am feeling better than I did this morning... I ate something after I posted/finished nursing Emily and it helped. That being said, I haven't rested at all today... I keep thinking I will but then my ADD brain thinks of just one more thing that needs done. Emily's been really sleepy/quiet today.. she usually is but then somedays she is even more so and it always worries me. She's nursing but doesn't seem to be going as long/taking as much as usual either. She is still having enough wet/dirty diapers though so I am trying to not be too concerned... she might just be tired/growing/etc. If it keeps up I will probably call the Dr... I can't help but worry about her but I try not to let it get out of control. She had a bath today (only gets a couple a week so her skin doesn't dry out) and I was trying some of her larger clothes on her (she has outgrown all of her preemie stuff now and is in newborn but I was wondering if any of her 0-3 month stuff would work.) I found out that most of it is still just a little too big but I did find one store's sleepers fit her quite nicely.. here is a picture of her in her "big girl" clothes...

She is just ADORABLE Amy!!!!!!

Long long day in London, so tired now, hopefully will help me sleep tonight before the big day tomorrow.

I can't really remember what I read as i was in the train at the time and that was a couple if hours ago!

Bailey remember thinking what about orchids for your mil? They last years and will still be around after a bunch of flowers are dead? My mil loved hers last year

Thurl nice to see you chick x

 

[ttcbabyisom]

[thurl30]

Awww atleast you don't have to wait all day, I have a really good feeling that all is going to be amazing hun, sending loads and loads of luck

 

[baileybubs]

Hey ladies! Really chatty in here today!

I've felt a bit rubbish this afternoon so went back to bed (feel so lazy!!)

Hi thurl! Hope you are well Hun, I saw on fb you bought manuka honey, I bought some too a while back. It's expensive but it's good stuff, apparently it's a natural antibiotic, and it does last quite a while (I failed to mention to df how much it cost lol!!).

Cupcake - eeeek!!! 1 more sleep!! I'll be on here all morning waiting for your update!
She already has an orchid in her kitchen otherwise that would be a fab idea lol, she's one of those people that's got bloody everything and is just plain awkward lol! Df was no help either when I asked him so I'm gonna try again tomorrow.

Mrs d - how's your throat doing after your treatment?

Cath - I meant to say before, you only spend £100 on food per month!!! That's amazing!!! We spend double that! And df still thinks that's expensive lol??!

Cheryl - how's Leo today?

 

[thurl30]

£100 per month on food? flippin heck we spend about £70 a week, that's probably why I'm a wobbler!!

Bailey yep I'm on the honey, I have heard so many good things about it I thought why not, I used to spend £20 a week atleast on fags so might aswell spend £15 on a jar of honey How are you feeling hun? getting so close now x

 

[cupcake1981]

Does the honey have ttc benefits to Thurl?

We spend about £50 a week on food I think (hubs generally shops), hate spending money on food!

Bailey ill update when I know what's what x

 

[baileybubs]

I'm ok, I just wish I would remember how easily I get tired lol!! I get knackered so easily but it's all normal! Getting period-type pains every evening now and more backache so I'm guessing everything is gearing up!

It tastes really nice the manuka honey too, I got mine from holland and Barrett. They had a deal on, buy two things and get the second for a penny so I got 2 jars for £11. I don't know if they still do that deal.

 

[baileybubs]

We spend about £50 a week on food too cupcake, I tried going to Aldi to see if I spent less but I didn't really, and they don't have everything we wanted.

 

[cupcake1981]

I like all the different stuff you can get in there, like meats and cheeses. Also there fajita kits are so cheap, about half that other well known brand!

 

[thurl30]

Well I have read that Manuka does help ttc especially combining it with a sprinkle of cinnamon, but I'm not really listening to that as they say that with everything it's so confusing but I have heard that it's really good for general health so I thought I might aswell, I got it from sainburys I didn't even think about holland and barrett

I can't shop in Aldi, they have too many nice naughties in there and I have zero willpower

Bailey I would say you are definately gearing up hun, so exciting
