PMA

knowing my luck it wont be :haha:

the pains have been on lower bump rather than all of it, but when im stood up the top of bump feels tight. very odd!!

I think shes moving around too much for this to be it, but i was wondering wether to call L&D tonight if im still having pains?
 
i would all them anyway so they're aware you're having these pains then if you do call back they're more likely to be responsive and not send you away
 
boo! sorry its been a while and Kayleigh....thanks for updating I hope your move goes well hun.
I have had a rushed catch up, I hope u are all well. flying visit to try and finally update.

Well it has been 2 weeks now since the arrival of Jennifer Rose. She truly is adorable.

I’m still quite sore from the C section and being the stubborn woman that I am most likely doing far too much for my own good....Well I actually feel I have more energy and enthusiasm than I did prior to her arrival. Lol.

Anyway yes, my labour started around 8.30pm on weds. But that was nothing...I was only warming up. I even went into Labour ward on the Thursday night to be told false alarm....

2am fri.....the contraction got bad....to the point of screaming and most likely waking half the neighbours at around 4am. This continued for a bit until about 7am when I eventually managed to get to sleep for a few hours...awoken by a bad contraction at 9am...that was the last I saw of it until 4pm....they completely vanished.

As the evening progressed, the contractions got stronger and more frequent.....for those mothers amongst you...yes I screamed and mooed like a cow lol. No one can describe the pain and you can’t recall the pain after....very strange.

Anyway....My waters went about half 2 am Saturday just before we were leaving for the hospital.

GAS AND AIR IS AMAZING! Lol :rofl:

I will spare u the constant grunts and moans that came from my mouth....but me screaming at one point where is my f**King Epidural just as the anaesthetist walked in was somewhat amusing to those surrounding me lol...ooooops!

Well, the contractions really slowed down after that was administered and I ceased dilating. And after a last examination at half 1 pm I was told I would be going to have an emergency C SECTION. I was wheeled into theatre where hubby was whisked away to scrub up and was left alone being pulled left right and centre with the prep.....cue the tears of the unknown. :cry:

The screen was raised....hubby came in.....and before I knew it I heard that magical gurgled cry.....Our daughter. :cry:

2.30pm Jennifer Rose was bought into this world weighing in at a whopping 9lb 3oz...(Me thinks I need to consider long and hard having a second lol) :shock:

She is perfect in every way.

The nights are the hardest, I’m almost certain she is going to be a clubber when she old enough as she wakes up bright eyed and bushy tailed much to Mummy and Daddy’s frustration at around midnight and doesn’t really go back off again until 3/4am. But she is worth it. :hugs:

I was re admitted to hospital on tuesday after faffing around in A&E for a few hours as I ended up with Celulitus infection just above the wound. Im healing well according to all MW, Dr etc that look at it, I just need to continue clearing the crap out.
I have got some minging headache at the mo so not stopping long.

Its a tough job but I am loving it. yes I do still get tearful which is getting worrying tbh...I hope it curbs soon. not all the time but little things set me off.

Missed you all.
Im sure u have seen pics on FB but just in case I will add some here. xxxx
Love you all and hope to have a better catch up when I have made a full recovery. xxxx

:hugs:

Good Morning Ladies,

I have just awoken from my second night down here. Its so eerily quiet round here. Went to our local Wicks yesterday to see if there was any bargains and was gobsmacked. I managed to pick up 10 litre pots of paint for £6.49!!!!!! How cheap is that!!!!! I couldnt believe it. So i got my room, the girls room, hall, bathroom, spare room and masonry paint. Wohooo

And ive literally just got off the phone from the kitchen designer and hes on his way OMG!!!!!!

How is everyone??

xxxxxx
 
oh kayligh nice work bet you can't wait to get to get started now!

i had the FIL over yesterday to do some stuff in the nursery will all be finished next weekend WHOOP WHOOP!!!!
i'm so excited now! finish work in under 5 weeks and she'll be here in under 7 we hope!
 
morning girls, you never gues what i had to do today! sew my self into a blouse :rofl: i had to accompany a client to a meeting today and had to dress smart, i normally wear and overall for work and i havent bought any Mat clothes just wear long tops so my trousers wasnt the problem my blouse was, the top button kept pinging open so i put a sports bra over my regular bra to squash them flatter then sewed the button hole up so the button would stay fastened and put tacks down the front were my boobs are. so im sewen in :rofl:

then meeting is over and im home so just got to figure a way of getting out of the blouse now :rofl:
 
:rofl got out of blouse!:rofl:

got a date with Mr bed. im so tired been extremely busy over the last week so going bed for a nap. because i can.
 
tudor u are so funny lol :haha:
Given time I will be catching up closely with you all.....but just that flying look Anna I cant believe ur 31 weeks now :shock: and less than 7 weeks to go till Mia arrives. gosh! and I thought my pregnancy went quick lol.
if u want any tips from a now experienced c section lass u only gotta ask. in fact just for the sake of your own sanity.....My hospital had me up and out of bed at 6am the next morning :shock::cry::growlmad: so be warned! the sooner u can get out of bed the better!!!! as much as it might hurt.
oh and never under estimate the amount of maternity pads you will need even though u have a c section! you will go through loads. I found the boots own really good or even always maxi night time towels!
 
ahh thanks lisa! so glad you're back with us we missed you!

yeah not long now i get my date on 16th Feb can not wait to know when she will be here.
I had a bit of drama last week with an hour of contractions so started working on my hospital bag just in case and now have 2 packs of maternity pads (40) so hopefully that will be enough!
I will so be asking you loads of questions though it's starting to feel really real now and i'm getting nervous haha
