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

[Sarahkka]

Hi everyone!
Back from hospital with no baby, no impending labour, and no induction!!!
We arrived at Labour and Delivery this morning to find that everyone in Calgary apparently went into labour last night and the place is completely jammed full of patients.
I am now officially on hold for my induction until things calm down there.
And I am ready to kill someone.

At least I can wait at home and just call in to see how things stand. Plus, if it's that jam-packed, I won't have a snowball's chance in hell of a private room after delivery and after gritting my teeth and suffering through the obnoxious behaviour of people in the waiting area, I can feel pretty confident that I would probably not do so well sharing a room with any of them.

Sigh.

This. is. so. f**cking. frustrating.

But, what are you gonna do? I'm not that self-absorbed to think that everyone went into labour to spoil my plans. At least not yet.
Check back in 24 hours and I'm sure I will have reached that level of bitchiness!

Huge congrats and hugs to all the new stars and their mums!

I wont mind him having to go, but if my contraction's start to get bad i'l want him back...my cuz said she was begging for pain relief and her partner to come back because she was that bad but they just gave her co-cordomal's and didn't check her or anything until next morning :/

Hi congratulations to all the new mommys I love seeing all the photos the September stars are all so cute. Well I'm now 8 days over and getting very fed up with it all. I should be booked in for induction on Saturday but they are full until monday so can't get me in till then. At least it gives me time to go into labour myself as I would really like a water birth. At the moment I am getting really sharp pains very low down but not sure what they are I had them last night as well and thought it was just wind pain but tonight they seem stronger but not really tighenings so I don't what's going on except they are quite painful and take my breathe away I don't know how I'm going to cope will real contractions.
Good luck to those whom are also overdue hope things start moving for us soon.

Sarahka - you must feel so deflated, at least you know it will be soon

Jenos are the pains in the front of your pelvis? could be SPD ? I've got the same issue tonight... I'm finding it comfortable with sitting down with my legs wide, as soon as I stand or try to close my legs I have excruciating pain in the lower front of my pelvis...... lucky i'm wearing trousers LOL

 

[jenos]

OMG I don't think it is wind as I've just lost a bit of my plug well there was a bit of blood there perhaps it might be my turn soon. Think I'm in for a long night

****UPDATE FROM BLOB*****

Just had another text to say labour started at 5am and she caught her herself - amazing x

 

[limpetsmum]

Hi ladies,
Just came on to find out about F&C (saw her facebook page & wondered what the info was.....nosey as i am ).
Not been on myself as i'm still in a foul mood about what i was told at my fetal med appt yesterday & today. Tufty & i are both ok but all birth plans have gone out of the window & i have an induction date. Will go into full detail when i feel i can type it out without crying (or at least through the tears).
Congrats to aall the other new mums & fingers crossed for us overdue's.
Hope everyone is well

 

[Emzywemzy]

Oh wow amazing she got to catch her herself! So happy for her.

limpets, I hope you are ok sweetie x

Another update from Blob:

She was 8lbs and was born with her waters in tact! She did 36 hours of labour with no pain relief.

That's meant to be very luck being born with waters in tact! Xx
