[hayley x]

girls, hope youre all keeping ok, some of you are so close to having your babies now

Just popping in to let you know that our 2nd Rainbow baby arrived safely into the world 2 weeks ago. He's just amazing and I feel so so lucky I cant believe he is 2 weeks old already when he was only due yesterday.

Wishing you all all the best for the safe arrivals of your babies xx

 

[shelleney]

Congratulations again, Hayley.
Finley is gorgeous, and so like his big brother...
How are you getting on?
xx

 

[fides]

thanks, shelleney - i'm getting so excited just by reading about the upcoming due dates in this thread!

Hayley, CONGRATS!! I love the rainbow shirt Finley has on - too cute!! Thanks so much for dropping in again!! So happy for you!

Ladies, as MrsWells has been too busy for B&B (who can blame her?!), and I had not heard back from her, I asked a moderator if we could get the thread reassigned so that we can begin updating it as our rainbow babies come in. So, the thread's been reassigned to me for now, and I will do my best to check back often as more due dates begin to roll around!

 

[shelleney]

Thanks Fides. I will keep you posted

Thanks Fides!

Congrats Hayley!!! Welcome baby Finley!!! (A name that was on our short list for our LO as well...but we've chosen a different one)

 

[hippylittlej]

Yeah! congrats Hayley. So very happy for you, he is lovely and I love the name Finley.

Thanks for taking over Fides that is really good of you, it is going to be a busy month in this threat no doubt. I am really hoping that bbay comes sooner rather than later as the pain in my pelvis is now pretty unbearable and I am struggling to walk at all. I am not sure I can cope with this much longer

Aww, LOVE Finley! Congrats!


AFM:

Bp was high again so they did the amnio. I actually got the Dr. I LIKE and he was hillarious. Didn't hurt, was quick but messy. He's a great Dr. though and made it light-hearted.

We thought we wouldn't hear back until 4pm but they called at 115pm to tell us Amelia's lungs are mature and they scheduled our c-section for 730am on Thursday the 29th. I tried to con them into waiting until Sat. October the first but nobody wanted to come in on a Saturday. Don't know why!

I had some pretty intense contractions so they kept me in the office for awhile to be sure I wasn't going into labor. They check my cervix....FULLY CLOSED. What a testimony to how great the cerclage and 17P injections work. I'll be REALLY confident next pregnancy...though not too cocky. Nothing is ever guaranteed. Maybe just a bit more joyful of a new pregnancy and not so neurotic!

At any rate, baby Amelia will be here thursday. Can't believe it. We've waited 10 years for this little girl and all of a sudden we're two days away from holding her. My cup runneth over!

 

[pip7890]

That's great news MA! Can't wait to see pics of your gorgeous daughter.

Congrats Hayley and Mommy! So excited for both of you. This really is an excellent fall.

I am due in 3 weeks and get to go out on MAT leave next Monday. Can't wait. No sign that baby will be here anytime soon. I am waiting...but not patiently.

 

[fides]

hippy, i'm sorry things are making it difficult to walk - hang in there!

mommy's, i'm so happy for you - prayers that everything goes well Thursday, and that even though it's not the birth you'd hoped for, that in the end it means a healthy baby to hold in your arms.

barbie, congrats on leave coming up so soon!!

 

[hippylittlej]

MA that is great news. So excited for you, it must be amazing to know she will be here so soon. Keep us updated.

Thanks for taking over fides

I am really hoping that bbay comes sooner rather than later as the pain in my pelvis is now pretty unbearable and I am struggling to walk at all. I am not sure I can cope with this much longer

You have my every sympathy i am so struggling to get around these days and with a toddler as well it is just utterly draining and hard work to do anything I have gone from wishing baby would decide to arrive this weekend though (i.e. as soon as i get to 37 weeks!) to really hoping he doesn't as i'm full of cold and can't imagine how i could give birth feeling this rotten So if he wants to be like his brother and come around 38 weeks, well that would suit us just fine (Are you listening baby boy?! )

At any rate, baby Amelia will be here thursday. Can't believe it. We've waited 10 years for this little girl and all of a sudden we're two days away from holding her. My cup runneth over!

So happy for you hope everything goes well.

 

[hoping:)]

Hayley- Congrats on your little boy!!! He is just perfect

MA- How exciting you will have your LO in your arms tomorrow

Fides- it was really nice of you to take over

I can't believe we are all approaching our due dates! Most days I still can't believe there is a little human growing inside me and in just a few weeks I will be able to hold her in my arms. I can't wait and I am starting to get very anxious and impatient.

 

[hippylittlej]

Good luck today MA.

 

[pumpkin007]

Congratulations to everyone who has already had their babies and goodluck to those who are still waiting , I should have been expecting my little bean, anytime now but unfortunately i Mc, just got my bfp this week though xxxx

[fides]
