November due date?

[almosthere]

Hi Ladies

Does anyone else have a bundle due in Nov? My November nuggets thread is very quiet and would love to chit chat and count down the months then weeks then days! I am super excited and anxious and just want to meet my baby girl soon! I know it's still early (I'll be 34 weeks on Tuesday my ticker is off a day I'm due Nov 8th) but I wouldn't mind her comming a couple weeks early if she is healthy enough and ready of course.

Hi!

I'm due in November. Technically due on the 18th but having a c section at 39 weeks so LO should be here around 11th. 6 wks 5 days to go!!

Have you decided a name yet? We are team yellow and really struggling to come up with names, particularly boys names. I feel like it may be a boy but not sure, it may be because 95% of people tell me they think it a a boy! Don't mind what we have though, a boy would be nice as I have two girls but then I love my girls so much that I can't help thinking that another one would be lovely!!

Hope you're feeling well, not too long to go now! X

 

[almosthere]

how exciting if I had a third ide go team yellow I think! but dh is done and I probably am too after our second. we are having a baby girl we have a son Liam and we are naming out daughter Leiana pronounced lay Anna. we are so excited! are you having a c section because you've had them in the past or is there something thing going on in this pregnancy that makes you need one? I had a vaginal with ds and got 4th degree tears so I'm really nervous but going to hopefully get to do natural again I'm hoping it goes better it can't be worse than it was last time injury wise for me I hope! 4th is the worst so anything less than that I'll be happy! LOL

I have been having a pretty good pregnancy but dh is sick with a bad cough and ds is getting a cold so I'm a bit moody and impatient because I'm heavily pregnant and can't Handel even little stress right now just don't want to deal with it I'm hoping I don't get sick but I'm extremely fatigued the past few days not sure if im getting a strain of what they have in a different way.

hope you are feeling well too! we could end up with the same due date if my daughter decodes to come 3 days late but I'm hoping for a early baby!

I love being team yellow. We didn't find out with DD1 (although I was 99.9% certain it was a girl!) but we did with DD2, I enjoyed knowing with her but prefer being team yellow. Just means we have to pick more names which we are not good at! Love your names. My good friend has a Liam.

With DD1 I had a long (32hr) active labour which resulted in an emergency section. Unfortunately things went rather pear shaped, I lost a massive amount of blood and had to have transfusions. DD2 was natural (having been reassured things shouldn't go wrong again!) but after having a pretty good labour and delivery, I started bleeding an hour after having her and ended up in theatre! I have been strongly advised to have a c section this time so I'm going with it. Hope your birth goes better than last time. I had an episiotomy with DD2, that was bad enough so can't imagine how a 4th degree tear would feel. Fingers crossed that doesn't happen again for you.

Poor you having to deal with a poorly DH too, I get so fed up with mine when he complains!! I have zero sympathy at the mo! My DH is away on business and has spent a couple of hours in the sun by the pool today while I have been dragging my two around the supermarket with bad pelvic/hip pain. Feeling a little sorry for myself! Bath and early night for me I reckon!

Hi Almost - have been trying to keep up with that thread. 33 weeks tomorrow with DS1 - second baby and IVF. Struggling with this pregnancy - much worse than my last. My body is struggling and I think it maybe down to the fact that my boy has decided to flip between breech and head down constantly. He's currently got his head in my stomach so i'll suddenly be retching and trying to run to the loo to be sick. I think I may have a hiatus hernia (have felt this for a while as I had awful reflux in my last pregnancy) and it isn't helping!

Fed up mostly

 

[Isme]

I will be 31 weeks tomorrow, and I'm due November 28th. It's close enough, though, that the baby could come in December. I'd also be cool with her coming a couple of weeks early if she's healthy and ready... But I highly doubt I will get that lucky.

We are having girl #3, and we're over the moon. There is a large age gap between this one and my last, so my current youngest (who is 8) is beyond excited about being a big sister finally. Watching her anticipate her sister's arrival is a lot if fun.

Sarah that is so scarey! I had 48hrs labor I had to be induced as I had borderline pre-eclampsia and also had an episiotomy but clearly didn't help me at all. I had a catheter I had to take home with me it was rough but totally worth it! I totally agree you should go with a c section with last poor experience and being told to do so by professionals. I was told to consider both options by my specialist I only see once but she sees all my medical info during my pregnancies. my obgyn however doesn't seem too worried about me going natural. Sara i struggle with just one small child I can't imagine being pregnant caring for two!

hopeful what is a hiatus hernia? doesn't sound fun that's for sure. sorry your body is struggling. I do have felt more discomfort and pain this time around my obgyn said it's normal each time you get pregnant as the uterus becomes more stretched thin and sensitive. it's definitely a struggles for me to switch sides during sleep and to get up from laying or from the ground.

isme that's so sweet three little princesses! your daughters will be able to help a lot which will be great! my son turned 3 in June he was due end of may so it's kind of fun wondering when the real birthdate will be it's like a extra surprise!

Hi due 30th November but being diabetic I will be induced at 38 weeks so round the 16th DS's birthday is the 18th so hoping to convince them that the 13thish would work better for me

Yeah I was in a pretty bad way! I was given a general anaesthetic and unconscious for two hours while they tried to stop the bleeding. She's worth it though Recovered really quick too so hoping I will this time as well! Sounds like you had a pretty rough ride too, although there's no reason that will happen again for you, DD2 was 8 hrs from first contraction to birth and only with gas and air. Hopefully you'll have a labour like that!

Lucasmum, do you mind me asking what the reason is for inducing a diabetic? Is it simply that the babies tend to grow quite large or are there other medical reasons? I only ask as I have a diabetic friend who is trying to get pregnant and is a little worried about things. Hope you don't mind me asking!

Hello ladies !!!
I'm due in November =) the 10th to be exact. However I'm going to be induced at 39 weeks due to gestational diabetes. Maybe sooner if she is still measuring ahead at our growth scan Wednesday so 6 more weeks or less

 

[almosthere]

Haha my daughters birthday will be very close to my sister and my husbands my sister is Nov 13th and dh is Nov 16 so we will have 3 November birthdays unless this girl decides to come out late October which could happen but probably won't who knows though!

 

[almosthere]

Welcome ninja so exciting! sorry to hear you have gestational diabetes it's getting so close for us all!

I was also curious is there a risk to baby and mom or just one or the other with diabetes there must be since your needing to deliver early? I hear about it often but never know the reasoning.

Tuesday I'll be 34 weeks can't wait to hit another weekly mark eek!

Hi Ladies

I'm due 9th November, having another littler girl. Can't wait to finish work, I just feel constantly tired, plus I'm full of cold so have zero energy.

Had a section with first daughter, due to failure to progress after induction and coz she was gripping the cord at each contraction making her heart rate drop, but I'm hopefully going to try for a VBAC this time, my consultant had said I'll be closely monitored and if I need a section in the end I'll be fine with that aslong as baby is ok.

Less than 50 days to go, can't wait.

FT mum here! Due on the 16th of November with our first little boy and couldn't be more excited or terrified. I suppose that is completely normal though! Almost completely ready for his arrival and in some ways I can't wait for him to hurry up and get here!

 

[Nikko88]

My due date is Nov. 11, but my daughter was 12 days past date (she arrived 1.5 hours before my scheduled induction) so I'm not holding my breath on an early or on time delivery. Although it would be nice. I'm definitely a lot more tired, uncomfortable, irritable, not sleeping well etc. Nearly bit my husband's head off last week.

I know there's no way for him to understand how this feels for me. And he's not a sensitive man. This morning he walked the dog for me when he saw I was struggling to get all the morning responsibilities out of the way. My toddler decided to get up early, so the routine went out the window because of course she wants to be held. So slow pregnant me was even slower.

Counting down the days.

 

[almosthere]

Welcome ladies! We are all so close and I can't beleive it's going to be October by the end of this week that makes delivery seem very near! dh and I are going to set up the carseat bases in both our cars today as tomorrow it is going to rain. I still need curtains and valences to be made for the nursery waiting for my mom to do that she takes forever to complete tasks so hopefully by early October we will have them then I can see if I need any more wall decor. I made a giant l with flowers on it for the floral theme I don't want the walls to be too busy!

Not at all it's simply growth and fluid levels can be lower, but the better the control the better it is, my control was never the greatest but we are doing ok here at the moment, you get lots of extra growth scans which is nice they told me it will be any where from 36-38 weeks last scan she was a few days behind have another in two weeks so we will see what happens then as I have ballooned out but at my last check ( I see a diabetic midwife every two weeks as well) they weren't concerned that I had turned into a hippo over night

It's when you have a weakness in the diaphragm which can cause acid reflux. Not fun. Usually diagnosed on x Ray or magic eye.

Hi ladies! I'm due Nov. 20th, though at my last few ultrasounds, baby girl was measuring for the 17th. I can't believe there's only 8 weeks to go! It seems so soon and also so far away at the same time! Anyone else feeling enormous and can't imagine getting bigger? *lol* Like I don't feel ready for her to be here but also, I kind of wouldn't mind her coming a week or two early so that she will be out of my belly >.<
