November Mummy's - It's nearly time

[XKatX]

Goodluck to all November mums... 9 days to go...
God Bless.

Ya right lol... Ive given up on the thought of having her anytime soon. Im paranoid about going over due, one OB told me they only let you go 3 days over here, and then I was told some wait the 2 weeks! Not sure which way my OB will go

And the lovely tech at my growth scan yesterday was going on about how great my baby was doing... gaaahhh.... She was either just saying it to make me not worry, or bubs is doing good and I wont get my induction! So im now convinced I wont see her until the middle of Nov...

Why the hell do we get tortured so much! Im going to go insane if I am stuck pregnant for another month.

I hate being pregnant, it sucks, its depressing, boring and I cant do anything!

On top of that my OH's Gramma is about to die (within weeks) as she has cancer and its taking her fast. We had really hoped to have the baby before she died.

As selfish as it sounds I really dont want to be having our baby right when his Gramma dies, it is supposed to be our baby's moment and I feel like its going to ruin it because his family is going to be so wrapped up in his Gramma.... They already have been for the last month Everything has been about getting things settled with all her things instead of being excited about the baby.

I feel so bad I love my OH's Gramma, she is so sweet and I know he is going to be sad too when she dies.

Oh you poor thing - such a rough time your having. Sorry about your OH Gramma. I know what you mean though - it's supposed to be a happy time for you all and it's being taken away.
On the other hand - I hope she doesn't suffer too much.
Lets hope you don't go over hun - if only we had a magic wand we could wave - then we'd all be happy!!!

So glad the appt went well, i dont think you will be going over hun, Ollie will be here sooner rather than later

I'm holding you to that!!!!!!

Evening Ladies. How has your day been?All ok I hope.I'm still sat here gobsamcked at the size of cuddles baba!

Well I had a typical day at the hospital.Got there and they told me I didn't have an appt.I told them it was told to me over the phone and showed her where I had written in my notes.She went off to see what she could do for a snotty cow to come and tell me off for turning up without an appt but as they are aware of my situation they will squeeze me in but I will have to wait.Could be hours.I was like bugger you then I'll go home as I know what I was told.She rang the unit and they confirmed they had made appt so she had to apologise.I still had to bloody wait 2 hrs though.

Anyway saw my horrible consultant and had my scan.Didn't speak to me just did it and then said right well baby has picked up so we won't induce you.The pains and syptoms are all down to you having an irratible uterus.Nothing can be done I'm afraid.Baby is doing well so I will leave you another 2 weeks and I will do another scan then we'll go from there.Then she said But the doppler has picked up something so I want you back next week in assesment unit to check the cord blood flow as it is a bit slow.Possibly why baby hasn't grown as it should.She didn't feel my tummy or do any checks just sent me on my way.

I got in and my midwife rang to see how I was so I told her what had been said etc and she asked me to read the measurements back to her.I did and oh hello baby still hasn't grown that much at all.It's picked up a bit which is good but not as it should.So my MW has said go back next week and moan like hell and get the induction that was already planned at 39 weeks making it the 1st nov roughly.Giving baby 2 weeks to grow a bit more but like she said if dopplers are off a bit then it won't do much.

So I'm home feeling pissed off and very tearful but also pleased that baby is picking up all be it slowly.I'm in pain 24/7 but I suppose I'll just have to blame my uterus and my SPD for that.They did find a growth on cervix which explains the pain down there and discharge but that will be dealt with after birth.

Oh and a small warning I did find out the sex last week but when I asked could she check today she could not confirm it,said it's very difficult to tell so I'm still staying on team yellow.So ladies be warned!!

Anyway I'm sorry to moan,I probably sound like a head case.You'd think being my 4th I'd know whats going on but I'm more confused now then ever before.I can't wait till baba is in my arms and I can tell the NHS to F**K OFF!!!!

 

[ryder]

OMG what a nasty git!!! I'm sosorry they're not helping you hun - no wonder you're tearful Good luck for next weeks appointment - I hope it's better.

Bubba4 and Charliebear- sounds like you're a busy girls today - don't forget to rest - or Mrs P will be on your case!!!

Had fish and chips for tea - which was lovely!! I live in a small village and we have a chip van that comes every wednesday. We're normally quite good and ignore it - but tonight we failed!! Hubby trotted off and got them - yum yum!!! Am going to try sleeping in the spare bed tonight. Hubby said he would go - but I thought perhaps a change in mattress might help. We'll soon find out!! Hope you all sleep well tonight girls!!!

 

[sam#3]

Kat - hope you sleep well and your hips feel better xx

 

[charliebear]

Well don't know what got to me but I did the cupboard upstairs and then decided the bathroom was filthy I have just bleached it top to bottom. My hubby thinks I am completley mad but I really feel agitated at mo.

So today I have managed to go to tesco, see MIL, Sort hallway cupboard, upstairs cupboard and clean bathroom. I have filled 3 black bags and 2 tesco bags full.

Ok I know I will pay for it tomorrow but god do I feel I have acheived something.

Anyway enough waffling by me xxx

 

[ryder]

Back from my appointment, baby is growing good now so no induction. I asked about internals and was told they don't check until 39weeks usually, so on my appointment on Monday I might get one.

I had protein in my urine so I have to go for bloods and other urine culture tests.

I showed them my ankles cause I am getting edema, but no one seemed too concerned. So I guess I will just have to wait and see.

 

[Jayne]

I think I just had a "show"....possibly......

I've been cramping all night and then when I went for a wee just now there was a big wet patch in my knickers (but not with urine, I would have noticed if I'd pee'd myself, lol) and the loo paper was pink with globs in. I've stuck a panty liner on and will see if I get any more.......

EDIT: And now my waters have gone! I'm trying to get through to the labour ward but there's no bloody answer, grr!!!
