***May Blossoms Due Dates Join Here**47 Babies Born!***

soph - congrats! he weighed the same as my DD, and i cant believe how tiny she feels. i know they say you have a maximum of 24 hrs after water breaks before they would have to do c-section because it puts the risk of infection higher. good to hear your c-section went good :thumbup:
 
Awww Soph, he's gorgeous!!!

I hope tomorrow goes better Milos :hugs:
 
Expect a birth announcement tomorrow, ladies :happydance:

For the last 5 hours I have been having irregular tightenings and cramps and passing lots of red, mucousy blood. My midwife has confirmed that I am dilating more and am in early labour and since I spoke to her an hour ago, the tightenings are becoming more regular!

Might not need that induction after all!
 
Hopeful & Lisa- great news on progression. Always nice to hear things are moving along.

Soph- Congrats, he's a cutie.

Brandi- sounds like your ready to go!
 
Soph congrats again, he's gorgeous:cloud9:

Milos, awwww hun! My first was 6lb 10oz so pretty much the same too, felt so small.

Brandi :happydance: fingers crossed this times the charm:hugs:

Wiggler:hugs: I know the feeling but it will pass, how long does Bethany go between feeds for you? Eilidhs around the 2hr mark atm but will have the occasional 4hr stint. :growlmad: at OH

Just got back from the hairdresser, I did a couple of hours this morn for me and dd2 now was the turn of DH and ds and dd1:haha: We look like a different family..
 
Just checking in- thought SURELY Brandi has had that girl by now! :shrug: Good luck Brandi!!! eviction time!

They are talking about sending at least one of my girls home either Friday or Saturday :shock: :happydance: :shock: I am a bundle of mixed emotions right now! Will try to log on later and catch up...

Wiggler- What does Dylan think of Bethany???
 
heyy - congrats on the good news! it'll feel nice to finally be able to take one of the babies home.
 
Good luck Brandi!

Soph, he's so cute. Congrats!

Mills, hope your little guy adjusts quickly to Ava.

Hey, great news!

I have an appt tomorrow (ultrasound, non stress test, and possible internal). Can't wait!
 
aaaand... we have spotting! :happydance:
Also my stomach doesn't feel so great, that might just be gas though :haha:
 
Thanks! It sent me into a bit of a panic about the house being dirty so I started running around, cleaning up :rofl:

Unfortunately discovered the dishwasher we ran today has water standing in it :( Stupid DH never scrapes plates enough and there is food clogging it.. when he gets out of the shower he's going to be put to work trying to clear the clog. I swear if I go into labor and the dishwasher isn't working when I get back from the hospital, I'll be very upset!
 
Brandi - :happydance::happydance::happydance: Thats brilliant news hun! Fingers crossed you won't need that induction!!

Heyy - I am so happy for you! :happydance::happydance::cloud9:

Lisa - YAY!! Hopefully it won't be long. I hope your hubby can sort the dishwasher out, talk about bad timing!

Bethany goes about 2 hours between feeds at the moment, but I swear the second me and OH talk about going to bed she decides her moses basket isn't good enough and only wants to sleep in our arms. I think this little lady is going to be hard work :haha: :dohh:

Dylan adores Bethany, he ignores her most of the time cos I guess he must think she is pretty boring, but every time she makes a noise he runs over, smiles at her and says hello :cloud9:
 
we're both working on the dishwasher right now.. getting all sweaty and cranky and not making much progress but we can't really afford a plumber right now either :(
 
@Lisa- Ugh- my dishwasher broke while I was on bed rest and is STILL broken "Because you're gone all day, baby" came out of his mouth. Apparently his fingers are broken and calling a repairman is completely out of the realm of possibilities! :rofl:
*Sigh
I'll be calling tomorrow and we'll be paying extra to be sure it's in working order before bringing the girls home.

I am sort of excited about bringing one of them home. As I said, mixed emotions. They want to release Rochelle- who is the smaller twin and the one who has brady episodes. They DON'T want to release Charlotte because she won't bottle feed for them when I'm not there- she doesn't like the fake stuff and only wants the REAL DEAL! :lol: But is doing better in every other aspect- I don't understand their decisions and am beyond heart broken over just the idea of taking one and leaving the other. I have requested a meeting with the neonatologist in the morning to try to get this all ironed out- so say a prayer for my powers of persuasion that I get them BOTH on Saturday or Sunday! (Ps- Sunday is Mother's Day here :happydance: )
 
heyyady - that logic seems totally backwards to me with your girls.. I hope you get to bring them both home! :hugs:

My DH is at least reading lots of stuff online and trying to fix it. I just wish it were a weekend so he could spend more time on it. I really wanted to go into labor but now I want this fixed first :haha:
I was going to mop the kitchen floor but decided to empty the dishwasher first :dohh: Also need to clean out the microwave.. then I'll feel 'ready' so everything is on hold right now and the kitchen is a disaster area with stuff removed from under the sink etc...
 
wow lots happening at night on here i see!!!

Mummy - I just want a 3 bed, or larger 2 bed, upstairs bathroom/toilet, and enough play area in the back for the boys, but in this area. Im not really fussy, double glazing be nice as I dont have that and wow I know about it in winter lol, central heating be nice too but I'll not push my luck not many homes have central heating round here lol I just cant be fussed with the hassle and this house is so ideally located. My next door is 3 bed with upstairs bathroom (they extended up as well as out when my landlord only extended out) and I did try to rent that when it became available but the house got caught up in some messy divorce battle or something but that would have been great lol

Hopeful - great news hun! Hope it all goes smoothly, hope the sweep works for you and spares you the induction!

Soph - Travis is gorgeous, so glad all is going well and hope your recovery carries on going well!

Milos - Milo will take to Ava eventually hun, it must be a big change for him. Bedtime is a big time too, thats snuggly cuddly time with mummy up to bed, but Im sure he'll soon get used to a new routine :hugs:

Brandi - awesome, bet you're in labour as I write this its been hours since you updated! Good luck hun and cant wait for photos of this long awaited little girl!

Lisa - good luck hun, hope the dishwasher gets fixed but sounds like you havent got a lot time on side lol keep us posted on contractions!

Wiggler - sorry OH is being an arse but so glad bethany and Dillon are being good! Dillon sounds like he is going to be a doting big brother!

Meow - does that just leave me and thee in the over due, no signs, never seemingly going to happen club???? lol

24 - did you sleep any better hun?

Wild - is it Siennas assessment today, Im sure she'll wow the HV :)

And as for me, hospital have cancelled my transfusion due to low staffing, as I need a 1 to 1 midwife they cant do it safely today. I know safety is paramount but I was so nervous and worked up, its kinda annoyed me a little, because now its a 'maybe tomorrow ring at 07:30am and see if we can do it' and well the uncertainity isnt doing very well for my nerves! Going to speak to my midwife today and see what she says, she wasnt happy about it in first place, she'll be less happy about this now. But on the flip side of the coin, I slept rather well and feel great and successfully went through Joshua's birthday without going into labour :) My friend (who was 8 days behind me) had her baby last night :cloud9: he's a little cutie! Joshua is back in school today, and OH has organised a busy day at work as I was supposed to be in hospital so looks like Im going to be at a loose end today and annoying anyone that is online lol
 
Well, spotting has tapered off... my body is sore though from helping DH with the dishwasher. The good news is that we fixed it! We worked together on it with almost no bickering at all :haha: Couldn't have done it without each other either which just feels really good.

I got the floor swiffered and the microwave clean.

Not really any contractions to report, just some occasional tummy upset.

We put the flea treatment on 2 of the cats, still need to get one more cat and the dog, hopefully tonight!
Right now the dog is trying to get one of the cats to chase him :rofl:

AND, I got my lip stuck on a popsicle.. bad enough that I needed DH to come rescue me and help me get water on it to melt my lip off, lol! and its now 12:30am and I'm not ready for bed :dohh:
