[Catmumof4]

@Neversayno Good luck for today hun! Hope u have a squishy by now!!!

@LoneWanderer awwww loooooook so so cute! Xx

 

[LoneWanderer]

@LoneWanderer the pooping and feeding will do the world of good! We were on 2.5/3 hour feedings to try and help it.

@Neversayno i hope c section has gone well

@Suggerhoney i measured 95-98 centile at she was 8lbs at 37 plus 3 so I would be surprised if you have him bigger than that at 37 x

He's pooping very bright yellow, does that mean he's clearing it? I know it's a sign he has it but hoping it also means he's getting rid. Much more alert today and eating slightly more.

 

[Bittersweet]

Lone is he breast or formula fed?

 

[LoneWanderer]

Obviously I expected my boys to be similar, but this is bloody ridiculous. If I hadn't taken the pics myself I wouldn't know which was which; basically I've cloned my eldest

 

[LoneWanderer]

Lone is he breast or formula fed?

Both - well, expressed and formula anyway

 

[Suggerhoney]

@Bittersweet
We was on 76th centile at 32+3 but at every growth scan he has gone up and up.
So I know he will be up higher tomorrow.
Tommy was 7lb 6 at 37 weeks so hopefully this one will be the same.
But my bump Is definitely bigger this time.
Will get another picture tomorrow.
I just really have a feeling he will be 8lbs or over.


@Neversayno
I hope u have little one in ure arms hon.

Anyone know if @wantingagirl is OK?

Hope @MadamRose is OK as well.

Oh my goodness they are like twins hon. I think this one will be Tommy's double because he looks just like Tommy in Scans

@Neversayno so exciting!! I hope all went well and you are snuggling your squish!

@LoneWanderer wow!! They look identical! That’s nuts. Two handsome guys.

@Suggerhoney what time is your appt tomorrow? Are they going to sweep to see if they can get labor started before induction?

@Catmumof4 i am curious what your sister ate that was spicy? I want to eat it at 37 weeks lol

 

[atx614]

I ordered raspberry leaf tea today, has anyone used it before? I didn’t in my previous pregnancies but I have a friend who swears by it, so hopefully it helps. Going to start it at 36 weeks and then increase weekly at 37 weeks. Hoping to go into labor on my own the 38th week to avoid induction at 39 weeks

Did absolutely feck all for me last time, I got through like five cups a day from 36 weeks... baby came 41+3 and only then with the section, even induction couldn't shift him.

Quite nice though. Needs a little touch of sugar IMO. And I don't think it is supposed to actually bring on labour, just makes contractions more, well, contracty. So it might do some good once in labour - I wouldn't know haha!

I'm drinking it again now as I figure it might help with the afterpains and get everything cleared out faster.

@LoneWanderer they are like twins!! ...my lg had mild jaundice and although had no treatment, we had to do feeds every 2 hours for what felt like forever! Although that was to do with making her gain weight too to be fair! Can't remember the poo colour though

@Suggerhoney I feel like time is dragging and flying all at the same time! I'm desperate for little one to arrive now, but at the same time, I don't want her here yet (only because oh is still isolating!)

This may sound weird, but I don't think I've ever had Braxton Hicks! With little girl it was just sort of carrying on as normal, then one evening waters broke and contractions started ...I was still working up to that point! Don't think I've felt any this time either!

 

[Neversayno]

She’s here ladies!!!

absolutely horrendous c section! Honestly I can’t put into words how much it hurt! Spinal started to wear off after baby was out I’m really spaced out right now haha!
She’s huge 8lb

 

[LoneWanderer]

She is BEAUTIFUL massive congratulations to you! Sorry it was a rough experience though, hope you get an easy recovery to make up for it!

 

[Suggerhoney]

@atx614
My growth scan is at 8:30 am hon and consultant at 9;30pm.
Not sure if they will do a sweep or check my cervix will have to wait and see.


@Zoboe95
Do u ever feel ure bump goes really hard and then eases off?

 

[Suggerhoney]

@Neversayno
Yay hon congratulations. Sorry the section was a horrible experience.
I pray u heal soon hon. Look at all her hair

 

[Bittersweet]

Never say no congratulations sorry it was so horrible she’s gorgeous

 

[LoneWanderer]

Waaaaa I almost certainly have a bloody UTI, thanks to the damn catheter. Waiting for test result confirmation but can't think what else it would be. So, now to add antibiotics to the daily schedule on top of iron, folic acid, ibuprofen, paracetamol and the fragmin jabs(!)
