May 2012 babies - so far 8 yellow, 22 blue, 21 pink!

[rjsmam]

4am here.... heartburn o'clock - also forced to get up by the bh's squeezing every ounce outta my bladder....

grr Anti - i've had x2 evenings like that now too... it's so frustrating!

bumpin, glad to hear Gabe is doing well, and thanks for the perspective, think i'm going to try to just do that - enjoy this time before junior arrrves (except the 4am heartburn attacks!!). Out of interest did you take RLT?

I wish I had just enjoyed my last few weeks, rather than trying desperately to make him come out.

Same here :/

 

[anti]

Was woken up at 3:30am with more pains, like period pains and felt stuff dripping out of me so went and put a pad on. Pains were too uncomfortable so I took two paracetamol and managed to sleep till now. (7am). Period pains are getting much worse now again. I've got loads of yellow mucus coming out as well which I'm presuming is more plug. Hoping this is gonna be it. It hurts!! just want regular pains now.

Rjsmam: I was taking the rlt, from 32 weeks. I had tons of bhc, some days very uncomfortable ones. I had close to 3 weeks of regular, bhc, 3 mins apart. I don't think my slow labour wad caused by the rlt though. My Dr told me it wad common in first timers to have that happen. Gabe is great. He was 6 lbs 13 oz at birth, down to 6 lbs 3 oz when we went home, and back up to 6 lbs 6.5 oz this past Tuesday. We have had a lot of trouble with breastfeeding, so next week I'm hoping he has gained a lot more.

Anti: keep us posted hun!

Gonna start timing contractions now. Getting really painful and having loads and loads of mucus plug coming away. Hope these contractions become regular!!!

 

[wavescrash]

Anti... Sounds promising!!! I'll be checking for updates!

bumpin thanks for letting me know - i was having the bhs before the rlt so it's maybe a coincidence, fingers crossed for a nice weight gain for Gabe....

Good luck anti and youngNI. I will be checking by for updates!

My labour pains were just in my lower tummy and then radiated round my back a little. Luckily I got away with an easy labour or my pain threshold is higher than I thought it'd be!

I can't wait to see pics of more of our may babies! Rjsmam I hope its your turn soon aswell

Breastfeeding still going great here...although my god has she sucked too hard on one nipple...it is really sore lol. She only lost an ounce at her first weight in.

Today we took Lola to become registered, she now has a birth certificate and slept through her first outing I think the baby blues might be kicking in as I have been feeling a bit down today...its crazy I love this precious little bundle so much...can any already mums tell me although we'll always worry about our babies it does get better?

My BH were upper belly contractions. My early labor felt more like period pains and that I ate something bad and it was coming out. With that said, the first 2 hours of my labor I spent living in the bathroom, emptying out.

I agree about wishing I wasn't so antsy to get him out of my belly. Would have been nice to enjoy the last few days of my pregnancy without having a baby to worry about! Although I would not wanted to have gone over due like some of you ladies

Just quickly girls... My yellow bump turned pink at 5:44pm after a very quick 3 hour labor!!! Ashlynn Ann Lyons weighed 7lb 6oz. She had meconium in her waters so we being kept in under observation but we both doing well. I have a few stitches... Not sure how many and I'm a bit sore which is expected but we're doing well.

 

[wavescrash]
