CONGRATS NIC AND MUNCH!! YAY! :dance:

Oh man, glad you are okay Triple xx

off to the docs! hoping for good news and a nice scan! :) today WILL be a good day. xx
 
Good luck with your scan Kim!

Well done at being practically dead Louise :rofl:

Thanks for all the congrats! Will post my birth story once we're home but in essence: Little monster came out with grade 2 meconium and his hand over his face = 3rd degree tear = spinal and an overnight stay. Have just managed to get him to latch on my own :yipee: and now put him in his fishtank for a nap before daddy comes back. He is a real boobymonster (baby, not daddy :haha:) Name still undecided xxx
 
Nic - hasn't he got his hand over his face on your avatar? Should have seen that coming! Well done you hun - for the birth and the latch! Gotta be a record for shortest time between birth and back on BnB! When are you expecting to be home?

Can't wait for name and pics!

:headspin: :wohoo: Congrats Nic and Hello Munchkin! I am impressed at your posting already! Look forward to pics and stories hun :) TC xxx
 
I think the bit on the left is my hip... But look at what's under his chin :dohh:

Am starting to realise just how well I did with the birth. Waters disnt break and MW had no idea I was pushing so she got the shock of her life when she randomly looked under me (I laboured standing up) and saw the waters hangin out of me, full of mec with babys head right behind them.

Had some Peth about 2:30 to tide me over and leapt from 3cm to 8 in 2 hours. The rest was all done with TEMS. Pool was filled but I couldn't go in it til I lowered my pulse.... kept thinking to myself "Err... Domt think he's hanging around for the pool..." but didn't say it out loud :rofl: xxx
 
Wow you sound like you're doing really well hun!

If i can offer you a little advice its be careful you don't get constipated, if they offer you any pain relief with codeine in it BEWARE!! Drink plenty of fluids and ask for some lactulose liquid if you feel like you're bunging up!

Hope i don't sound preachy but i really wish someone had told me when i had a cut after a forceps delivery, it may have saved me a lot of pain! x
 
Wow Nic!! Not many babies come out with the waters intact - trust Munch to be different! Can't wait to see these pics!! :)

Glad all is well Lou - and what fab care!!

Oooh that's good luck Nic (never die drowning or something like that!) xxx

Ah such lovely news! Congrats to Kimmy and Nic! There is a definate trend of boys on this thread at the moment!

I've been to the hospital today and all good. BP was 115/70 (this is practically dead for me!) and baby doing great - its even in the LOL position which I'm told is best for birth (head is still free at the moment though so could change). Lazy bones was asleep for first 15 mins of the trace but then woke up. They said I had slightly elevated ALT levels in my blood which is something to do with the liver but aren't too worried because all other bloodwork was normal. Not sure why I'm getting such fab care - weekly blood tests, traces, BP testing - on top of my diabetes care. I'm getting my moneysworth out of the NHS that's for sure!

Right then, who's next for a baby?

It wasn't you in the seat opposite me today was it? I had to go up to day assessment today and they were giving the woman opposite her blood results and said she had to eat something to wake baby up lol. It'd be weird if I did bump into you one day and not know :haha:

Next time you are up there have a look on the notice board - there is a picture of a baby in a blue baby gro with a tube in his nose, that's my Maff when he was born. I noticed today his pic is there.
 
Ah no, it wasn't me Vic, I was there first thing and on my own. I only wish I could have eaten something to wake the baby up but no biscuits or fizzy drinks allowed! I had to make do with some cold water!

I will have a look for the piccy of your LO next time I'm there (weekly occurance!)

Well done nic congrats on your little man, you did do well in birth by the sounds of it boo for your tear x

Ahhh was the lovely Penny working this morning? I did see her briefly but I think she might have been on labour ward. She works mostly DAU now but she delivered my Jessica.

They got me to eat a baguette to wake my little girl up lol. Then she went mental - never ever have I felt her move that much.
 
Hi all,
well, got the bad news today. full on GD, my body cant do it with a small diet. So, on to the really hard diet and the pills for now.

Lovebug is 4 pounds and 3 Ounces! :shock: He's um... huge. But he is so cute! I got a scan! He kicked at the prob :cloud9: The new diet is really hard, and pricking myself 4 times a day sucks, but it's all for my little man. Doc is talking 39ish weeks for my induction or section.
 
Sorry to hear that wish, I've not heard anything since my blood test so am hoping it was ok x
 
4lb at 30 weeks Wish WOW - eye watering lol. Sorry about the GD though.

As for me still no sleep really hard work now. Got 4 days left at work so trying to manage x
 
Ouchee. Sounds like a section to me, Kim. Do you have people around to help you afterwards if Hubby is still away? xx

Munchkin has a name! Dillon. He's been discharged, we just need to get mummy to prove her arse still works and we can go home! :wohoo:
 
Lovely name and come on Mummy!!! Hope you are doing well Tulip :) :hugs:
 
:hugs: Wish - so sorry about the GD.

Yey!!! for Dillon :yipee: Hope your bottom is back in action soon Nic ;)
