September 2021 due date babies!!!

[Bittersweet]

Cat how are you? Defo should get checked!!!!!


I got epidural in about 40 mins ago as only 4cm. I’ve gone myself all they did was a sweep and I’ve felt a heart tracer on the baby as a massive contraction happened about 5:25pm where the contractions changed and they lost contact with baby and beciade of the heart rate being dodgy before they put the tracer in they managed to make a whole in my waters so I’ve been on my way since

@Catmumof4 if they are consistent at all, even far apart I would get checked!!

@Bittersweet yayay!! So excited for you! You’ve got this!!

@Suggerhoney um they better get you in at 37 weeks! You are high risk, it’s not like it’s just elective.

@MadamRose i can’t believe you haven’t gone get tbh lol. Glad she will do a sweep for you a few times a week! And all the walking you do should help too.

@LoneWanderer ugh, I’m sorry about your thumb. That sounds awful. But good job organizing all the clothes. That’s on my to do list this week. And to pack my bag and get the car seat out of the attic.

Thanks hon. I'm just so scared there just gonna be so busy that even the high risk ladies will have to wait..i feel so done now and I really don't want to go past 37 weeks. Also scared I'm gonna have a massive baby.
I'm the same size now as I was at 36+4 with Tommy and he was 7lb 6 at 37 weeks..

Ah epidurals are great I'm definitely going to be having one of those.
I want to try with just gas for as long as I can but will definitely be having a epidural.
Have they put the drip up yet hon?
Can't believe u only needed a sweep and that got things going. That's so good.
Hope u haven't got a long night ahead of you and baby comes soon.
Keep coming on here to check for updates it's so exciting.

Just a question do you know if they are turning away high risk ladies and making them wait?

I'm so scared when I get my date they will be too busy and I'll be forced to wait..
I just want to go in on the date and get it done.
I don't want to be pushed past 37.

Anyway good luck hon can't wait to see photos of baby.

@Bittersweet so excited for you!! Stalking for an update!!

Hi girls sorry I’ve not been around all my attentions been on the wee man. I’ll update later today properly but we are hoping now he’s making progress.

I know it’s hard but the one thing I wish I did was wait til 38 weeks now as I always have it in the back of my head is he was slightly too earlier although this could have happened at any time, it’s more to do with the rapid labour although they did say his lungs were a little immature. Even down on the labour ward they were questioning why I was induced when I was

The difference from the beginning is crazy!

 

[LoneWanderer]

He is BEAUTIFUL

Glad to hear he's progressing, hopefully not too long and you'll all be home.

 

[MadamRose]

@wantingagirl beautiful and lovely name

 

[MadamRose]

I don’t want to be one of them people that moans and I know that Mother Nature is in charge here but I’m so done I really thought baby would be here by now, yes I know I’m not quite due yet, but with DD2 being 38+4 and 9lbs 13oz I’m really starting to get worried. My daughter’s are so desperate to meet their baby brother or sister and I can see it getting harder on them each day waiting, they wanted as much of the school holiday as possible to bond with the baby and that’s slowly being taken away from them. Right now it feels like it’s never going to happen

Morning ladies

baby girl born 23:20 last night Weighing a ridiculous 8lbs 1/4oz!!! Was pretty savage in the end as epidural didn’t work as well.
Anyway no induction required other than the sweep waters broken when they put the heart tracer on and that was it all

 

[MadamRose]

@Bittersweet congratulations glad all went well!

 

[soloso]

Congratulations!! So pleased. What a great weight for your date!! Hope you and baby are doing well xxx

 

[Bittersweet]

Thank you. Seem okay so far got blood work to get back etc first. My eoidroal didn’t work properly so that was brutal pushing her out

 

[LoneWanderer]

Yay congrats!! Hope you both doing well, excited to hear more when you've had chance to recover!!

They did have her on the 98% centile but only had her at aboht 7lbs 4 last Monday lll

 

[Catmumof4]

@Bittersweet Omg yeey so so happy for you she was obviously ready to go! Failed epidural are literally the worst! I feel for you there! Hope your bloods come back fine!

@wantingagirl what a gourgeous little man and the difference is extraordinary! How are you feeling now?

As for me I didn't go in my mum was being a poo head (as my 3 yr old says) I took another dose of morphine at time and it knocked me out! Woke up with pain but no tightening but will take that! I'm now going for a lie Down but if still there after I get up I might go get checked x
