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

I'm just fed up of being to bloody scared of parenting the way I want cos of them arseholes upstairs. I don't want Bethany growing up with these bad habits and if Dylan is allowed to continue he will turn into one of those awful kids you see on Supernanny. I want my sweet little boy back!
 
You must be very proud of her wind habits mummy!! :D:D xx
 
Afternoon ladies!!

It's been quite a busy day here today. Anberlin is a GREAT sleeper during the day...nighttime, not so much, lol. It's 4:30pm and she's been sleeping now since 11:00am, and she's only now JUST starting to rouse. We had an eventful boobie marathon night where she wanted to eat nonstop from 2:00am to 5:30am, and my poor breasts took a beating. I can't wait to work up that toughness again.

Zoe is fascinated with her, only to the point that she wants to mimic my every Mommy move. She keeps stealing all of Anberlin's blankets for her own babies and pretending to push them in a stroller, she puts them in Anberlin's car seat, swaddles her babies, and even mimics breastfeeding them.

Isaiah is very protective, but also jealous, but not in a bad way. He keeps making sure that everyone who goes near her knows she is "his" baby, but he's also having a hard time leaving my side. He constantly wants to sit on my lap and play with his toys in my presence. He's very clingy as if I'm going to forget about him. The poor kid is scared at night when he hears her crying. He woke up last night each time she cried, crying that there was a baby crying and trying to get to her. Hopefully he gets used to it quickly, lol.

We visited playgroup this morning and the moms were shocked that I was there already, having just had her yesterday. They were even more shocked when I mentioned that I went home less than 3 hours after having her. Anberlin now currently holds the record for being the youngest child to attend playgroup.

Right now, life is good. But ask me again in a few days when endorphins have worn off and I'm completely sleep deprived, lol.
 
Yep 24/7, long may she be an awesome farter:haha:

Wiggler:hugs:I completely understand, I'm just sorry your neighbours can be so awful to make you feel you cant parent how you want.

Brandi, I hear you, why do babies do sleeping wrong way round lol:dohh:

Anyone having anymore labour signs?
 
Glad everything is goin well Brandi. What is it with the baby girls wanting to be up all night though :haha:
 
I am so glad I never have to answer your last question again, mummy, lmao. I'm just having a crapload of postpartum signs now, but one look at the little girl who brought them on makes me very proud to have them.

Honestly, Wiggler, I have no idea. They like to be pampered princesses at all times of the day, I suppose.

I decided that because Anberlin is so darn adorable and I'm so proud to have her here, I am not taking away 6 years worth of allowance anymore.
 
wiggler - sorry to hear about Dylan :hugs: i know milo isnt as old, but he's definitely going through a transition too. and he's nothing like he used to be! he's so mean and tempermental now, i've seem to have lost my baby :dohh: hopefully things will get better.
 
bounced on my ball for an hour straight.. don't know if I've ever done it that long.. no signs of BH or anything though, lol!

Got a call from my doula and it made me feel better.. she's just so sympathetic to the pressure to go into labor due to the size etc. She was late with her 2 kids too so she understands.
 
So i tried the nipple stimulation for about 15 min on each boob. The right one was hard because it just started leaking immediately... anyway by the time i was almost done with the right one I started getting bad BH.. is this all a sign of something that these lbaor inducing techniques cause me to start having BHs or is my body telling me not to bounce or touch my nipples? Any thoughts?
 
hmm.. BHs are practice contractions, right? So I'd say its a sign that things are working.
 
My BH don't feel like practice ones they are full throttle, lower back, abdomen and at times take my breath away.. it sucks... it gets hard to know when it will be real.. my dr keeps telling me cause of my size and stature that my BH are probably worse and mimicking real contractions but its good for me in long run because it builds my pain threshold... whatever.
 
it also strengthens the muscles which can make labor faster.. or at least thats what I understood, lol!
 
I had a crapload of braxton hicks, painful and not, and my labour, start to finish was only 4 hours and 45 minutes.
 
I'm hoping my labor is cut in 1/2 compared to my first, so hoping for 7 hours. I've been so religious with RLT that it better do something good for my uterus.
 
My first labour was 9 hours 55 minutes.
My second labour was 7 hours 15 minutes.
My third labour was 4 hours 45 minutes.

I only drank RLT with my third and that was for about a week. My pregnancy brain, and laziness, made me, well, lazy, with it.
 
Well it's my due date, so where is my baby?! xx
 
My first labour was 31ish hours
second labour was 8 hours 10 mins, and I spent most of that thinking it was a false alarm cos it didn't hurt enough :rofl:

Oooh my neighbors are ANGRY this morning :haha: Dylan has been banging his little heart out because we won't let him have juice. Within 20 minutes of the tantrum starting they had kicked our front door and been banging down. Oh well, I don't give a flying fuck, I refuse to allow my son to behave badly anymore just because they don't like it. Dylan stopped the tantrum after about 35 minutes and asked his daddy nicely to run him a bubble bath so they are doing that now. Bethany hasn't been bothered by the noise at all, and it has been damn loud this morning :haha:
 
Taking away milk whilst she was in the womb has toughened her up!! :D Stay strong though and it will work in the end!!

How are you feeling today? And how did Bethany sleep? xx
