March 2013 babies - we all have our beautiful babies :)

Glad I am not the only one! Hopefully it's a sign he's moving down.
 
Thanks ladies!! :hugs:

My labor was quick indeed but I paid my dues pushing for 2 hours! Plus, the last HOUR was spent crowning - I really thought she was never going to come out :cry: As a result of all that pushing, I've got hemorhoids the size of Texas and cannot even think about sitting!!! But I'm getting by one day at a time. Her precious lil face keeps me going!!! Just can't get enough of her :happydance:

So now that everyone is going to start popping LOs, are we staying here for parenting stuff or should I start looking for a new home? I would love to stay in touch w everyone!
:hug:
 
We definitely all need to stick together seeing as our babies should all be so close in age :) why don't we stay here for another few weeks until most babies are out and then we can set up a new group in parenting?
 
I agree we need to stick together and like the idea Rose mentioned of staying here until all, or most, of these March babies are here and then move to baby club or something.
 
Congratulations Mrs Chezek! Your little girl is gorgeous!!

nothing happening with me :( I thought my waters had gone yesterday but turns out it was just a lot of watery discharge :dohh: After a total of DTD 3 times in 12 hours, dh doing a DIY stretch and sweep, then a speculum examination AND normal internal from the midwife and a swab.. nothing has happened so i think he wants to stay put. SO i am just going to leave him be... this time next week ill have him in my arms anyway so its not long to go.

Rose I get that all the time and have done for the last few weeks.. the lovely lightening crotch. get some funny looks when that hits whilst walking out and about.. haha i tend to kind of shout when it happens since its so sore!

Cant wait to see more baby pics from all you ladies.
 
Hi ladies! Hope everyone is doing well :)
Had an apt with my OB this week; almost 2cm dilated and 80% effaced. She did a sweep (oooofff). I cramped all day and had some pretty good contractions but they didn't amount to anything. Was cramping/contracting all evening yesterday but stopped while I slept.
Other than being so anxious to meet LO, I'm feeling pretty good. May try to go for a good walk today to see if I can get things moving!

Good luck, you never know. My first faint contractions started on a Tuesday but were on and off (getting stonger over the days) until the Friday. So it's never out of the question. :flower:
 
Morning ladies, just got back from my consultant appointment and I am being induced next weds. He is going straight for breaking my waters so it won't end up too long and drawn out. He wants to do it himself too so it's controlled and he can make sure the extra fluid doesn't cause too much trouble. If however I do end up with a cord prolapse or my contraptions don't start within a few hours he will section me.

He gave me a good sweep this morning even though my cervix was far back, it hurt like a bi**h but I've been cramping on and off since so maybe it will do something before next week, who knows. Regardless I should have a baby by weds evening, so only a week to go for me :happydance:
 
baby_maybe thats fab news!! Looks like there are going to be a few babies appearing by the end of next week ;) xx
 
Yes I think after the first few days of march have started we'll see lots of announcements of babies being born on this thread :)
 
When do they normally do a sweep for the first time in the uk with a first pregnancy?
 
Normally a week overdue rose, although that could vary a bit by what area you're in and whether you have any complications which warrant you getting one earlier than that :)
 
Some midwives will do it just after term.. but others wont touch you till you hit 41 weeks. I had my first sweep with ds1 at 40 weeks xx
 
My midwife had me book my next appointment next week (she is there Tues and Weds) to discuss what is next. I'm hoping she will do a sweep on Weds as I'll be 2 days before 41 weeks.

In my area they let you go 12 days over before inducing. Really hoping baby arrives without being induced and within the next week!
 
Sounds like we will have a few more babies soon!! So exciting !! I agree we should all stick together!! We can help each other through since our babies will all be so close!!

Afm: I'm getting the odd Braxton hick.. Nothing much.. But I am actually going to the bathroom more.. I went from being constipated to the complete opposite.
 
Skeet im the same! a few days ago i had to really struggle to go... but since yesterday iv been going more than usual.

argh one thing not to do at 38 weeks is play football! OMG serious lightening crotch hahaa was playing football with ds at the park.. had to walk on my tip toes so it didn't hurt so much :haha: xx
 
After being given the go ahead to have until 40 weeks to go into spontaneous labour (can't be induced due to 2 sections) I have started bouncing on the ball and walking places like a demon. I will have this baby naturally!
 
Started losing my plug this morning but no "show" yet. Contractions were every 20 mins or so and now around 8-10. Might be the start of something! We're having a snowstorm today (go figure) so OH is coming home early in case we need to go to hospital
