*** March Mummies *** 29 Boys, 34 Girls, 8 Team Yellow! 46 babies born!!

aww blessed...great to hear from you...glad everything went so well! can't wait to see pics. i bet you are tired--hope you get some rest :hugs:

brai, hope you are getting some rest too...

DH and i just had a bit of words--argh. i mean it ended fine but he just gets SOOOO frustrated at me because I get anxious about stuff--things i can't control anyways...but he doesn't understand someone like me who can't just brush it off and take things as they come...i don't need to control everything in life, and i'm not a control freak but i do get anxious and that drives him mad--so i asked one little question about his outlook on job situation (he's currently working part time and working on getting his business back up and running after 3 months away from that...and it worries me that it's taking more time than planned) and it led into much more of a discussion and frustration that i anticipated...doesn't help that my hormones (grumpy and emotional alike) are peaking--not only that but i try to explain to him that there's a lot of "unknown" right now with a baby coming soon...so this job thing on top of it adds more to that, and then you take the fact that i don't sleep at night, leaves me lots of time with things to creep into my head...and not sleeping at night while working full time with all these things on my mind and still trying to contribute around the house etc, some days i just have these break downs...(which is why he says i need to let go of some of the things on my mind that i cannot control because it's only exacerbated by not sleeping and the anxiety of a new baby etc. etc.). he says he understands with the lack of sleep etc...body changing, energy lacking--but i'm not sure he fully understands cuz let's face it--how can they when they aren't living it everyday. not only that but he can sleep til noon if he wants to 5 days a week. i told him i'm getting a bit resentful of that right now--even though i know he's making his contacts, doing his paperwork, checking his options etc...i just feel resentful when i am getting up at 7am to go to work.

it's supposed to snow wed night and thur...i'm really hoping my work will close...but i doubt it--i work at a university and i only live about 3/4 mile from work so i walk each day--universities never close for snow days. and if you can get to work you are expected to--think i could use pregnancy as an excuse NOT to walk to work in the snow? :haha: then id' have a few days off!

sorry for my 2nd rant in one night...one of those days i guess...
 
Tanikit--hope the fever and possible mastitis gets better...i love the name you chose for LO. so cute!
 
still getting mixed signels from my stupid body. wish someone could take dd today and let me veg out but no chance lol
 
Hi all just a quick one ...

Not feeling great today - been up since 2am as J not well (drowning in snot) poor thing, got him back off to sleep by about 4:30 but couldn't get back off myself. Been throwing up again this morning, not sure if its "clearing out" or another bug (obviously hoping for the former) but feeling awful and am at work.

Have had an update from Shell - still no movement, they haven't been able to break waters and she is on her 4th Pessary, they are very keen to avoid a section but think this is the last pessary they will give her. So she is very frustrated, especially with trying to sort childcare as well.

I will try and catch up properly this PM or tomorrow.
 
:hugs: MumtoJ and also :hugs: Shells. Hope you are not sick Mum2J and that things are moving, but if not then hope you feel better soon.

Shells, you have had such a rough time of it - really hoping you will have your baby with you soon.
 
Morning All!!

Melissa that sounds fantastic, Congrats :hugs:

Tanikit - i think you should head over to baby club (or where ever they allow the threads) and start a mom's thread... then we can move over as we need to - and still check up in here. Just a thought.

I slept ok... tossed and turned a bit, up at 1:30 and 5:30 to pee. Thats pretty good in my books - but im still tired. And if i manage to actually get 7-8 hours and im tired now, my god what is my life gonna be like in a couple of weeks. I guess im hoping it will be different because i won't be getting up and going to work and i can function at home in a zombie like state that is not acceptable for the workplace.
 
Yesterday was tough, but i was happy i was still pregnant and in the comfort of my own home this morning. Thanks for all the kind words yesterday!
 
trying to get updated on all thats happened today.

sorry for all the trouble going on ladies!!!:hugs:

chrissie and kelly- babies are just gorgeous :happydance: great job ladies!
 
Not much news here! I'm on pessary 2 prob wil only allow one more then section.... Just gotta see what happens. Sorry can't really catch up xx
 
Another just quick one - Not sure if Shell will come on later but she has been sent home AGAIN - OMG I can't believe what the hospital is putting her through.
 
Hey ladies,

Poor Shells!! I can't believe it. This has been going on for days and days for her. I really hope they get that baby out soon!

Anyone heard from Melissa S?

Cathryn, I hope you feel MUCH better soon! That is a lot to deal with with your little guy sick and you not feeling well either. I'm so sorry!

Blessed, glad to see you back on! Congrats!!!

Membas, so sorry you are arguing with hubby. It's really hard sometimes to not just knock their heads right off their shoulders, especially when they say "I understand all you're going through, but..." and you want to scream (or at least I do!) "you can't possibly know!!" :grr: Men!

I'm having a better day; got a good night's sleep last night (as good as they get these days anyway!) and slept in this morning. So that was nice. So far today have just been putzing around. Plan to finalize the packing of the hospital bags and list of things that can't be packed yet (pillows etc), make a list of the last items we need to pick up before baby (breast pads and nursing bra, etc.), pick up the house and my home office, and otherwise just relax! So far my BP is hanging in there. Hovering at the line but not quite as high as at yesterady's scan.

Hope everyone else is having a good day!
 
well just had a really hot chineese hope that works as i am fed up of feeling like an old woman
 
Im so ready to be done work!!!!!!!!!!!!! Is it Friday at 5pm yet? :haha:

I saw a status update from melissa s... she's still waiting for her little man to make an appearance.

:hugs: Shell's
 
Good luck to all the inductions! Hope everyone is well :flower:

So cute Blessed!
I have come to the conclusion I will probably be pregnant for at least 3 more weeks. You never know though.
 
Melissa (Blessed) he's sooo cute! Congrats again!

I'm promising myself an evening of rest...after DH and I had our words last night--we of course don't go to sleep mad or anything, so all was well by late evening, I went to bed tho and i had more of that hormonal induced insomnia crap...not the 'i can't sleep cuz i'm not comfy'...it was the 'i feel like i'm on speed/wired' cant' sleep--in my head i kept repeating the same song over and over again and it' wouldn't stop! so i was basically awake all night long. whew! then i got up and went to work--only managed 6 hours at work tho being so tired and still fighting a cold....so it's nearly 5 pm and the most i plan to do tonight is heat up some soup for dinner! laying in bed the rest of the time. i wish it didn't make me feel so lazy--i enjoy relaxing but it makes me feel really really lazy when i get into bed this early! oh well--gotta rest too

hope all is going well with inductions etc...sounds like shell is having a rough go at it. i can't believe they sent her home again. hope all others are doing good and feeling good.
