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

Goign in now, I'll update when I know more. Hopefully I will be relaxed in bed with a nice epi in my back! x x x
 
:hugs: lots of luck hun xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 
Oooh wow it's all kicking off!

Congratuations on the new arrivals and good luck Wiggler! :hugs:

Can't believe my baby *should* be here this month (if it knows whats good for it! :haha: ) Was nice to flick the calender over this morning.
Hope baby doesn't keep me waiting toooo long - been getting increasingly uncomfortable over the past week. A nice 38 weeker would be good but not holding out too much hope! :wacko:
 
OMG if wiggler has some sex and drops a pesto baby all in 12 hours i am sooooooo going to sulk!!!!!!!!!!!! FFS! (good luck though! lol)

Well my MW came here this morning, I didnt hear the door so she left a note and I rang her. she is fuming that the hospital havent induced me, she said my cervix is not closed, and on last examination over a week ago it was forward so no way is it long either, she said he must have the shortest fingers lol She apparently isnt happy they have sent me home, and also isnt impressed with the idea of making me wait for a transfusion, she would rather get the baby out and be done. So I feel slightly annoyed that this wasnt done as it does make sense. She also told me about the risks of an iron transfusion, which werent detailed to me in hospital, so all in all a bit confusing and really I should have been bringing baby fidget home today :(

Hope everyone is well!

lol Joshua drew in some dust by the TV today, so I made him get the duster and polish and do the entire room :haha: thats one lesson he learnt the hard way lol
 
Good luck, new..hope your midwife gives em an earful.

I'm fed up. Is it sad that I'm actually considering throwing away my homebirth in favour of induction? Zoe has so many appointments coming up in the next two weeks, the first starting on Tuesday, and I have to go back to school next week for a few days. I'm supposed to start placement again full-time on July 1 and want as much time in with Anberlin as possible. My back is killing me and I can't lift my kids, or bend over to hug them, I can't drive for longer than 10 minutes and inhaling HURTS!!!

I hate the idea of induction but I can't risk Zoe, especially, missing these appointments if I go into labour on my own. These appointments have to do with her condition and we've been waiting 6+ months for them.

What do you ladies think?
 
When would they carry out the induction? Things work so much differently over there, here you wouldnt be able to elect an induction before 10 days over due. Have you spoke to DH about it? Would DH not ensure Zoe made her appointments no matter when you were giving birth? It really is your own decision, you really want the home birth hun but it makes sense to have a hospital birth if you can have Anberlin sooner given your committments coming up.

My MW said she gave her opinions to the hospital and expressed her concern yesterday before my discharge. When she called today and I didnt answer she assumed they had taken them on board and i was in having him, she was shocked they still sent me home.

Ive got the munchies today but Im not hungry. But my parents are proper on my case about eating :( i havent been munching either, although I could happily snack today lol We have a casserole cooking which my mum is putting with potatoes and veg, so the thought of eating anything else today before that is just arghhhh I hate being nagged lol now I know why I love living on my own so much pmsl
 
Given the mood I'm in new and brandi, I can't even imagine how you feel. :hugs: xx
 
It depends on the midwife/OB. Some OBs will allow elective inductions prior to 40 weeks (a friend was induced at 39w5d), others right on the due date, and my midwives expressed that they don't like to do them prior to 41 weeks, but what is 3 days going to make a difference, right?

Yes, my husband would ensure she made it, but they're all out of town. If he were to take her and I went into labour, I have no childcare for Isaiah and no car and no family closer than an hour away, and they don't want to come out until I'm at least 7cm.

I'm meeting with my midwife in 20 minutes. I think I may be leaking slowly anyway and haven't felt any movement in 8 hours, so I'm going up to the hospital now to be monitored and I'm going to ask then. They have said they may consider earlier than 41 weeks, given the circumstances, but we'll see.
 
I have a teeny tiny bit of hope at flippin' last.... Have lost the first bit of my plug!! :D:D:D If anyone had told me nine months ago this would have been exciting, I would have laughed and laughed. :p With my renewed hope that I may actually one day give birth and not be pregnant for the rest of my life, I'm dragging OH on a walk. :D xx
