*October Bumpkins*2014* 43 Babies Born!

[rachmumtobe]

I was due on the 27th but still waiting. Went for a sweep today but still nothing so booked in for induction on Saturday. In a way I hope he comes soon but I'm also full of cold and feel rubbish so feel like I need a few more days to get over it. Our 3 and a half year old is also bunged up so feeling really sorry for him at the mo x

FXd you and little guy both feel better before baby arrives, Rach!

Rachmum-hope your family all feel better soon and that your LO decides to make an appearance before scheduled induction

My yellow bump turned pink at 11:35 this am (11/03). We have named her Jolie Brielle. She weighed 7 lbs 12oz and is 19 inches long. I will post more once we are home. She is beautiful and healthy, things could not have gone better.

Congrats busytulip! Great news!

Rachmumtobe - hope you feel better soon and your LO arrives when you're feeling stronger but before the induction.

Yoyo - sorry to hear you've been so ill. Hope you feel better. Thank you so much for everything you've done on this forum, I really have appreciated being on it and youve been so efficient!!

Looking for some opinions

Im 4 weeks PP today, I did bleed red for almost 3 weeks but it started to end last week, and has been just browny old blood or barely anything. I haven't needed a pad in a week. Went to the toilet earlier and I'm bleeding bright red again, not heavy and no need for a pad. I'm wondering if this is PP bleeding starting again or could be the return of my period? It seems a little early...I have been a bit hormonal, bloated and had period symptoms the last week though :-/ I just hate all this postpartum crap, it really freaks me out! I don't like not knowing what is going on with my body and I worry in case it's not normal.

Finally have time to upload a photo of my gorgeous girl! It has been a rough week and a half tbh!

 

[Krippy]

How active have you been SisterRose? I have found in all 3 pregnancies my bleeding would slow down as I felt better so I started to do more and then it picked up again. Hope it eases and it isn't your period...

 

[Krippy]

She is precious Toughgal!

 

[SoBlessedMama]

Yay, Busy!!! Congrats!! : )

Toughgal, she is PRECIOUS!!

Sister rose, I'm only about 2.5 weeks out from delivering, but I had the same thing happen. There were a couple of days where I had almost no bleeding, and then it went back to very heavy and bright red. I called and spoke with a L&D nurse, and she said it is very normal for it to slack off and pick up like that. (I was worried about blood clots since I had a c-section.) I know you're a bit further than me, but I still think it would probably be too early for it to be AF. Also, like Krippy said, too much activity can bring it back on as well. I hope it eases up soon, and isn't AF just yet!

I was going to ask the same thing. Could be Af could be pp bleeding picking up. Given it's 4 weeks pp for you I'm inclined to think it might be af. I had some ovulation pains last week so I'm fulling expecting af at 4 weeks pp

 

[SisterRose]

I got af 4 weeks pp after my first

i have been active lately, but never get chance to sit down for 5mins anyway! X

I did the same thing, about the same time. It never got real heavy, just went from brown back to red for a day. I only just stopped wearing a pad yesterday.

Congrats busytulip!

Beautiful toughgal!

I've had exactly the same as soblessed is describing. If it lightens up again it could still be pp but if stays heavy for a few days, sounds more like AF? Hope it eases off soon whatever one it is.

Congrats busytulip, lovely news!
