[eclipse_xo]

I had my little girl on the 24th =)
Natural birth, 9 hours of labour, 9 lbs !!! Ouch I'm soo sore >.< ..... labour/delivery weren't that smooth, baby was stressed, 1 hour of pushing, But were both fine so that's all that matters.

I'm home ... still got bad head but BP is back to normal and only trace protein. Basically i have to keen on drugging my self, rest (haha with 4 kids are they havin a laugh???) and deal with it till i go for my appointment @38 weeks.
They're giving me a scan tomorrow coz doc thought there may be too much fluid round lil badger and also checking for doppler. Not had that before.. any one care to shed light on what it means??

Congrats eclipse x

Debs - Doppler scan is to check the blood flow to the placenta glad you're bp etc is ok. Ive been going through all that since 25 weeks *sigh* but mine comes and goes so they can't medicate - just monitor. The scan will be lovely though, just to see the changes

Congratulations eclipse!

 

[Beadette]

Congrats eclipse! Well done xxxx

So let me get this straight... Have any if you lot made it to your due date?

Sods law states that poor Deb will be the first to reach 40 weeks Sending love hon xx

Debs - I had a doppler scan with Ollie basically they will do a full growth measurement of baby then they measure all the blood flow etc, takes about 20mins but it is thorough x

Yes Nik I agree one is bound to go full term !!

 

[Beadette]

It'll be me! I'll be a fortnight late and need inducing!!!!! Sod's law!

Although saying that - I do have a feeling i'll be a tad early! As much as I love being pregnant, eviction proceedings will be commencing at 37 weeks on the dot!! I'm so excited to meet my forever baby xxxxxxx

 

[braijackava]

They wont let me go past 39 weeks, but I am hoping and begging for induction on Wed. So it wont be me going to my due date.

Congrats Eclipse! Sorry you had a rough time-here's to a quick recovery! What a great birthday your baby has (same as mine )

 

[debgreasby]

I'd better not go to my due date or i'm blaming u Nik.

In bed eating spaghetti on toast. Bad head. Grrr

[braijackava]

I am at the hospital right now. BP has been high and baby is not very active. Having other symptoms too. Getting a biophysical profile in a minute. I really hope they keep me in and induce me.

 

[mushmouth]

Howza ladies! Just checking in. Wow! So many early popping little ones! Congratulations to everyone and their scrumptious, huggable bundles! Very best to those still in the final stretch. (emphasis on stretch.) We're pushing week 33 now, pushing hard, my belly doesn't want to get any bigger and girlie's got a hard hard head. Or ass, whichever that is push push pushing. We had another scan Friday; a bit too squished in there for decent pictures unfortunately, but all is well, if a bit on the big size, which jives perfectly with our original lmp dates. I should be getting a call this week about our C-section date. I don't know if she's going to wait 'til 39weeks though, if the Spring trend here follows...

We're having a crazy snow storm here now... I had a beautiful quiet walk in the snowy woods this morning - there may not be a lot of those up ahead. We really need to get onto solidifying all our 'just in case' plans - emergency grab bag, etc. A short list for names would be good too. Ooh, if anyone's getting those killer leg cramps, I followed a doula friend's advice and started a calcium/magnesium supplement and they've disappeared. Hallelujah! XO
