****September Stars!!**** - 119 Babies Born!!

[becs0375]

Hello!!

Choc, good luck!! Looking forward to some news!!!

Louise, sending you big hugs xxx Its a hard one about being induced, for me personally if it was Ian going away I think I would still like to leave her to come naturally. I know there is a chance that Wayne won't have long with her and I can appreciate you are anxious and that ist a very emotional time on top of Afghan xxx

Snoozie, hope you feel better soon xx

Well we went for a right marathon walk this morning, Murphy is shattered!!! Ian done all the housework this morning, which was lovely!! Got all my washing done and now relaxing!! Off to pizza hut later for tea!! I have some right niggly pains in my lady bits, some of which are quite eye watering!!! I am so angry, we have 7 weeks till we move and we are still to get an address, we have so much to sort out before we leave, Ian only has about 3 weeks in work after he has had paternity and other leave! Its a bloody joke, I really can't be doing with people coming round after we have had Hope to do removal survey etc!!

Hey all. Update from choc. They have done a sweep but cervix not ready for Izzy to come yet so she's been told to expect it to take a while.
Also had a message from Brownsie saying they are on their way into hospital as we speak - awaiting more info as to why (waters, contractions etc).
I'm officially jealous & just trecking around my local park in the hopes that something might start lol

what to do with OH who doesnt want eviction sex?

our sex lives were fine in the 2nd tri but over the past 10 weeks i think we've DTD twice... if that! I want it and im hinting all the time but he says he doesnt want to have sex when its been "pre-booked" as such...... Problem is i dont feel sexy at all so dont know how id get on with seducing him. Apart from slipping some viagra in his coffee i dont know what to do.... any ideas?

No suggestions sorry, just wanted to send
I have been going on and on about eviction sex, next week when Sept is here, but tbh i really don't know if i am going to be bothered!
I always think i would do anything to get baby out once 40 weeks has been and gone, but i feel so crap by then i can't be bothered!
I don't think dh is going to be very enthuastic, he looks at me like, 'yea thats what you think' when i say we will have a go at it to get baby going!
Last time we had to do some sort of bedroom pregnancy gymnastics to even get close, his back prevents a few obvious positions, no way i could get on top, i would fall off
Can't even describe how we managed it in the end!!

Done my sample wee, oh the fun!

Good luck Choc xx

Loiuse, it is difficult because you have such exceptional circumstances and it seems so unfair baby could be late and dh not spend much time with her.
I would say it's best left to mother nature and let her come when she is ready, at least if she is not here at term then think about induction if it is offered at that stage.
I just can't imagine waiting like i did for my first, he was nearly 3 weeks late, and i was miserable, i have been induced with the others, my last the only exception, yes labour was 'nicer' non induced but tbh once baby is out it is all irrelevent!
I would be induced again if i went over because i feel 40 weeks is plenty and the longer they cook the bigger they are, i can deliver a term baby at about the 7lb mark but my 8lb 5oz er was just not gonna happen for me, and i swear he only got that big because he was late, the others were all around the 7lb mark.


I have hardly had bh this time, last time i had loads, constantly, i have had a few, good ones and that is it

Anyway being nagged again, plus need to go and have a shower b4 I see the midwife, not sure how this baby is lying, it seems to still be freely moving about at night, last night hickups were up high again, but this morning i am sure i felt a few hickups low down.

Ha, after saying about bh i am having a mini one now!

Back later all xxxxxxxxxxx

 

[becs0375]

Oooooo, hope one of them gives birth soon!! We haven't heard from Brownsie for ages!!

 

[BLONDIE35]

Louise - I had 3 failed inductions as baby wasn't ready but this was at 40 weeks with GD last time and never had dilation, effacement or anything.... Given the choice I would've waited for mother nature to take its course too as babythinkpink says. Had to have c-section in the end due to failed induction so that's why I'm having a c-section again this time.

Hope this helps. xx

 

[Carley22]

I know i was thinking about Browsie the other day - i hope all is well and baby 14 comes along soon.... it always seem to happen when i spend a couple of days away from here so maybe i should shove off to let ppl get on with it all...

Hows Drazic?

 

[Blob]

Hope Brownsie and Drazic are ok

Louise i think i would be inclined to refuse induction unless your cervix is really good for it?? It is SO hard esp with your husband going away But then at the same time how hard is it to refuse when there is a possibility of seeing your baby sooner rather than later?

ARGH!! I think i'm going to be pregnant forever

 

[Carley22]

blob it WILL happen ....... but labour dust to you.....

 

[Blob]

I seem to be the furthest along with NOOO signs what so ever Last night had total melt down but seem to be a bit better today

 

[Carley22]

Aww hun it must be really annoying for you esp as some of the mid septembers are getting dates etc.... Hopefully all will happen quite nicely and naturally for you and soon! i will keep my fingers crossed. xx

 

[jenos]

hi blob i know how u feel i'm only 3 days behind u and have no signs what so ever i think my LO is just to comfortable (i don't know how as i cant imagine he has any room left at all). i feel specially frustrated as i was intially told i wouldn't get to term now i think he'll be late, just booked some reflexology for my EDD to see if that helps. i feel so jealous of everyone giving birth early and getting induction dates and c-section dates its not fair i just want to meet my little man, especially last night i dreamt i was bathing him and then woke up to find him still inside. lol

 

[Drazic<3]

I agree Jenos and blob! It's quiet frustrating when you are further along, and you have been suffering too. Obviously, I am happy for everyone just wish they would let me know when they are going to stop stringing me along because she has NO intention of going anywhere now. Poor kid seems so uncomfortable in there now! I know I have the consultant on 1st Sept, but there is still no guarentee wether it will be a week, a day, an hour, a month until the *******s induce me

Thank you for thinking of me. I keep losing this thread now it's moved. I am fine, no more fake labour, no more nothing! Just tonnes and tonnes of watery discharge which is gross. lol

Hugs to you all

 

[ThatGirl]

i find out little ones birthday tomorrow hes still breech so getting booked in for c section tomorrow morning

 

[elmaxie]

Woo hoo!

The race is on between choc and brownsie for star 14!!
Hoping choc has a speedy induction and that all
is ok with brownsie! It has been a long time since I saw her post so hope it's positive going into hosital ie in labour!!

Oh drazic I hope they tell you something soon! It's so unfair that they keep you hanging around!!

Blob I am hoping your baby will just decide right here I come!!
A girl I spoke to on here just had her second a few weeks back and she suddenly went into labour and had her daugheter 2 hours later and had just made it to hosital!! I still have hope and positive vibes "she" will be here by/on due date!!

I am so glad I only have until Friday (sorry to thoses pissed off) I have really struggled today. My right hip is just agony and I could barely put my jeans on. I even stuffed a heat pack down them on hope it helps but not really. I just feel a bit unsafe really as Nathan is in some kind of dare-devil mood and was off up the stairs before I could manage 3 steps, then he plummeted head first over the arm of the chair...luckily he had put his cusion there to sit and read on!! They have been the main incidents!

But I did pull out the sofabed and we cuddled up for a nap together. I slept for an hour and he slept 1 1/2 hours which I am so pleased about! I loved it to be honest as it kind of brought back our first morning in hosipital.

Having a bad mummy afternoon as I have stuck on babytv for Nathan so he is going between dancing to the songs, watching the builders over the road and Reading his books while I wibble around trying to do things!

Gonna go have a cup of tea and biscuit lol

will be back to see if there are any updates!

Oh that's what I meant to ask!! Has anyone seen an update from rockyracoon? Surely we must be at 14stars as she was being induced on Monday??

[daniellelk]

sorry not had chance to catch up...doubt Ill manage to read about 3page's worth of replies tbh :/
Midwife think's my back ache was caused by the fact that LO's head is just sitting in the brim of my pelvis, she is also unsure as to whether he is back to back or not :/ So I'v got to try the turning technic's anyway incase he is! Everything else is fine tho

 

[_LauraK1982_]

Lots of labour dust for all those that are wanting it

I am so tired and pretty annoyed today. We had a growth scan and consultant appt this morning. Baby is still not growing as she should be and Liquor(sp) levels are still low so have got to go for another scan next Wednesday Also had to have a CTG today as baby is not moving as she should be so I am going back again on friday for another CTG and then to see the consultat who will then make a decision about what to do with me.

Im abit worried now as I really do want baby to hang in there until September (really only as my sister is also due and we would like babies in the same school year ) but my gut feeling is that they may try and induce me.

Sorry for the selfish post. I couldnt keep up with the 14 pages of posts. xx

 

[babythinkpink]

Midwife went ok, everything ok, no sugar in urine bp ok, she didn't measure, but they don't seem to, it may be because its no5 and its quite roomy so height is not a good judge i don't know
Baby is still in a funny position, it is still uncertain if it's breech or not, she thinks not but is having me back in next week to see if its any clearer and if not going to have a scan then find out what is what.
I think head down, midwife thought head down but said it was a very difficult call, which is why i have to go back next week, although if we don't know this week how it is going to make any difference next week i don't know!

Well that is my update!

back later xx

tp xx

 

[elmaxie]

Oh Laura!
Sorry to hear things are not going the best!
Hoping your baby is just petite and going against their charts!!
Good luck for Friday!
You would think you would have seen a consultant today though??

Emma.xx

Hi ladies

So Brownsie may have a baby on the way too?! I've also been wondering about Rocky, hope she is ok especially as she has her kidney stone problem too.

I really hope things get going for you early ladies - Blob, Jenos & Drazic soon. I know Asher is fed up too. Sending lots of labour to you all.

Laura - sorry you are being put under stress like this. All I can think is that they aren't massively worried about the growth issue. Surely if they were, they would be making quick decisions? Honestly, I'm sure the doctors in maternity are there to stress everyone out as they seem to do it continuously, while the MW's pick up the pieces.

Good luck to the ladies that are getting induction and c-section dates

Apart from the baby having a very wriggly bum nothing is happening this end. I went to Matalan this afternoon to look for a laundry box (no luck) and a stupid women hit my bump with her handbag. I know she didn't do it deliberately but she didn't bat an eyelid or apologise. As she was wearing a burkha I convinced myself she hadn't seen me properly! You would think a laundry box would be easy to find but it turned into a wild goose chase, even Wilkinson's didn't have one. In the end I came home and ordered one from Homebase that they don't do in store. It's being delivered on Friday so I'm happy about that. I can't remember who was having issues with whilst trying to dry washing the other day, but it happened to us today. DH hung out all the bedding and while we were out it started tipping down.

We actually had some good news today for a change, DH has been paid for August, he was under the impression he wouldn't because he finished that particular contract at the end of term. It was a nice surprise to get a pay slip through the post this morning. It wasn't a lot, but better than the big fat zero we were expecting. It gives us a bit of breathing space as he won't get paid on his new contract until the end of September.

I also had an email from the lady who is selling me her Mama Tens machine today to say that the new pads she ordered have arrived. I decided I might as well buy hers second-hand as it's only been used twice and she wanted £30. The same price as renting one that would have been used dozens of times. I'm going to go and collect it tomorrow Has anyone else got a Mama Tens?

Laura

danielle pleased your MW appointment went well

babythinkpink dosnt make sense why she dosnt just sent u for a scan this week to check babys position when my MW was unsure with DD's position (she had been breech for awhile) she sent me straight for a scan and i was 36+ weeks pregnant then.

Where are all the stars at? 's only 1week untill September ladies
