PAL March 2012- 5 Beautiful Girls and 5 Adorable Boys!!

[addy1]

I remember a lot of snow as a child, we used to have a lot in October/November, now we hardly have any for Christmas. The weather is so mild here, that I don't think our snow will last much longer.

Glad your scan went well wyn and your little boy is doing well.

I want to see babies soon and birth stories lol... I get excited when I see someone has posted incase it's the first birth story.

Today I feel ready to meet my man, I feel shattered and like there can't be anymore more room for this baby to grow, it's the first time I feel so uncomfortable!! Roll on next 2 weeks so I can start hot curries and extra sex lol

 

[Cornish]

Essie, I'd be happy with 8.5, it's the talk of 10lbs that worries me!
Still no baby, getting lots of pains today though?!

Lou, the curries are doing nothing here, neither is the sex-other than making me more tired!
Midwife tmrw and hoping for a sweep but doubt I'll get one!

 

[ttclou25]

What sort of pains are they like?? I have missed out in braxtons and want a test contraction lol...

Can't believe your 39 weeks!!!!!

 

[Cornish]

I'm getting shooting pains in my cervix area, tightenings across whole uterus and general pain low down. I just feel really uncomfy! But I want it to get worse so lo is on way but think its teasing me!

I'm getting shooting pains in my cervix area, tightenings across whole uterus and general pain low down. I just feel really uncomfy! But I want it to get worse so lo is on way but think its teasing me!

Yeah i keep getting the shooting cervix pain, i think baby is trying to stick its hand out or something!! I feel bruised in the privates, like i have been kicked up the foof, when i walk!

And BH getting stronger, i feel it round my back and in bump like a pulling on my sides and bump coming forward, like i am slimming down on the sides as all my skin is being pulled forwards?? If that makes sense? no pain though.

Pancake day here tomorrow I LOVE pancakes, going to do ham, cheese and sweetcorn for main, then choc spread and banana, and lemon and sugar for pudding!!! Mouth watering just thinking about them, yum yum!!! xx

 

[Cornish]

Oh how I love pancakes! Golden syrup for me!!
Your pains sound very similar to mine, do your bh not hurt-mine are killers!
Xx

 

[firsttimer1]

Ah i looove pancake day Im defo a lemon/sugar and a hint of syrup girl

all good for me today... cant wait to be 37 weeks on weds... No sign of bump having dropped or anything tho so guessing baby is still not engaged....

Hope your all good

 

[addy1]

Baby is moving like crazy today, but also having BH a few times an hour. They are not painful at all, but very annoying. Woke up a few times from them. I remember them so clearly when pregnant with my dd.

Also having the shooting pains and the bruised feeling. One week today until my scan! Can't wait to see what this little monkey is doing in there!!

I love pancakes, but with maple syrup.....from Canada!

 

[Cornish]

Oh great I have the runs! Sorry to put that in with all this pancake talk!

 

[essie0828]

Cornish you sound like your getting close girl. Hope things continue to progress.

SS you to. The bruised foof feeling sounds like bubbas in the shoot so to speak Now if you could just get to contracting......Girls hope to see another baby in here asap.

 

[ttclou25]

happy pancake day i already had mine a few days ago with honey mmmmmmm so yummy!!

Does anyone else get painful jabs and literally feel like there is no room left in your body? I feel sorry for him as he is so squished!!!

Cornish it does sound like your close - i hope you are

 

[Wyntir]

I almost forgot it was pancake day. Darn, I haven't all the ingredients in

Cornish, hoping baby is close to making an appearance
It just reminds me of last night, when I had pains in my lower stomach, not a cramping feeling, more like If was needing to go to the toilet, like you were talking about Cornish, the runs. (sorry if anyone is eating pancakes)

But luckily I don't. Next midwife appointment i'm expecting her to tell me that baby has moved down. I don't feel as breathless, and I can feel more lower down now.

 

[Cornish]

Pancakes are yum! Had round 1 at lunch!!
Midwife went fine today, bp, urine etc all fine. She agreed to do a sweep next thurs but thinks I'll labour any day (sure she said that weeks ago!).
Having pancakes and chilli for dinner followed by sweet pancakes for pudding and supper!

Sorry to hear you have the awful cramps too wyntir.

Lou, I def feel like there's no room but midwife tells me there is! Whatever I say to her!

Happy pancake day.x

 

[Glowstar]

Cornish you are sooooooooooo next for having a baby on this thread!!! hope the chilli pancakes do the trick!!

 

[essie0828]

Lou you poor thing I feel for ya, it feels like Hayleys feet are in my tonsils and her head is in my bum And im way bigger than you are dear. Hope your little man gives you a break but hes prolly no where near done stretching his poor mum out

Come on Cornish my moola is on you going first. Get that baby outta there. Btw, what are chili pancakes?? The only way I have ever even heard of pancakes done is like addy said, with maple syrup. Told hubby you were eating chili pancakes and he said "hell that would make me go into labor to." But all jokes aside, all this pancake talk is killing me. Gotta have some now.

Addy, MMMMMmmmm Real maple syrup! Have to agree, I think canada has happy trees or something. Good syrup from up there.

Just two more sleeps till I get to see my lil, (or not so little) girl on ultrasound. She has started moving a lot more from the other day and I am almost sure that she is not engaged anymore. She is really restricting my breathing again and just feels like she has popped back up. Is that even possible? Hubby and I are both so anxious to meet her. I cant wait. Been washing all these tiny little clothes and stuff trying to get a bag ready for her and its making me soo impatient. I cannot decide what to choose for a going home outfit for her because all those little clothes are soo cute. Ill prolly end up taking too much stuff. Still dont have a bag packed for me tho. Not as fun packing my not so tiny clothes.

Girls, hope that you all have a good few days. I will be checking and watching. BTW anyone hear from Timsogirl? She is close to having her lil guy soon too I think and she is in the States, they seem to come a bit earlier over here. Wondering if she has had her yet.

 

[Cornish]

Morning ladies-any babies?!?
Essie, yes baby can pop out but it's unlikely. I thought my lo had but he is firmly engaged and think legs had a growth spurt! As for chilli pancakes-I cooked a batch of chilli, made pancakes, put grated cheese in the pancake, dollop of chilli con carne and rolled it up. Kind of like an enchilada or fajitas. That was dinner and got followed up with lemon, sugar and syrup ones!! I still have some mix left for today too!

Baby is still causing me pain but nothing regular, trying some squats as I type!
Tims was a couple days before me, I think she is cuddling her lo.x

 

[addy1]

The next few weeks are going to be so exciting around here! Can't wait to start hearing some birth stories!!

I am giving my baby another 3 weeks......then giving an eviction notice!!

My hips are SO sore!! They feel like they are dislocated. I can't sleep anymore, was up all night last night. Hate to complain, but I am SO tired!

 

[Cornish]

My lo ignored his eviction notice!
Hope those hips get better addy.xx

 

[Glowstar]

Jeez Cornish still no baby yet

I feel like my LO has dropped down today...I was in a lot of pain on and off today that felt like his head grinding in my pelvis He's been moving loads too

Getting exciting now
