Summer Peaches... going to be ripe in late July/early August!!

Oh my God, it appears I need a life. My friend just commented on my Facebook saying. You okay? You haven't updated you status in like 7 hours, not in labour are you?

I can't believe I update my Facebook that much lol. Nice to know people take notice though haha x
 
Ohh girls I am thinking of changing the ticker!!! I have a gut feeling induction will be the 20th????

That's my due date, you best not be jumping queue lol. No I forgive those who are induced as they don't get to be induced without a dr thinking it's necessary so I don't blame them haha. xx
 
lol no definite dates! just don't tell them I know exactly when we conceived and it was 5 days after they think lol
 
:haha: KM thats funny.

Lucky Jo when will you find out? I'm still going for 14th natural labour... I wont be happy when it doesnt happen!
 
18th I see consultant.
MW wants me induced so might be happy to do a 37 week sweep???
 
Talking about size of baby Tom has just said 'I wouldnt mind him being a big baby' (this is in hope he will eat and sleep well)... Glad HE wouldnt mind while he sits there watching him come out!
 
WTF??? remind him the more to come out the more stretched and damaged the hole ;)

We only get to evict if engaged/ very low and cervix doing its thing! Think favourable thoughts girls
 
What a day.

MIL and FIL said to OH they would come and cook for us tonight which I thought was lovely that I didn't have to cook and was presuming I wouldn't have to clear up and do dishes etc. too, thought that was the whole idea? Well, they turned up late afternoon with potatoes, veggies and a chicken for ME to cook while they blew up a HUGE bouncy castle in my living room and wound LO up so much she was screaming and kicking and refused dinner. Then they sat and ate cheesecake in my living room while I did the dishes and cleaned the kitchen although clearly tired and in pain. Then couldn't get rid of them at LOs bedtime even though I shut all the curtains and dimmed the lights and put the toys away. So I ended up just shushing them and LO everytime they tried to wind her up to play so she didn't have to go to bed. I got into the bath with LO so they couldn't come in there too and finally got rid of them :rofl: Then OH had to spend hours deflating the bouncy castle (I live in a tiny Council flat with no garden) and squeezing it into our walk in hall cupboard and now I can't get into the baby clothes etc. to sort them! Fun fun fun!

Not true. Toby was 8lb 9oz and I...ahem...wound up tighter than before I had him...I had no stitches and didn't even graze.

It's the little babies that do the most damage generally as they shoot out in a couple pushing causing you to tear where big babies just stretch gradually and come out gradually meaning your body has time to stretch like it's meant to xxx

That's awful I wouldn't have cooked it lol. If they tell you they're coming round to cook dinner then they come round and cook dinner. You never invited them to dinner. I hate people like that. I would've thrown a right tantrum lol x
 
He doesn't need to know that lol!!!

hehe I got best of both tiny baby, 2nd degree tare (pretty sure it wasn't that bad) and a fe extra stitches for my troubles!

though I am now filled with some hope I might not need stitches this time
 
I would hate that too!

And I had loads of stitches with Connie but went back to normal... maybe smaller lol.
erg had a sweep with Connie and it never worked!

I think this time hes going to be 7-8lbs as Connie was 7.9 but she was 11 days over and HArveys definalty measuring bigger than Connie did but fingers crossed hes earlier
 
LO was 5lb8s and REALLY difficult to push out! All the buzzers etc. were going out as her head got stuck in my pelvis and there were about 15 people in the room. She was purple/blue when she was born but fine in the end. It was because of the damn induction, being strapped to my back on continuous monitoring and wasnt allowed to get up to push. Once they agreed to let me turn over she slid out. No tear or stitches but did have severe labial grazing and it was a bugger to pee for weeks :rofl: This baby is bigger but the MWs assure me bigger babies are actually easier to push out :-S

km I know... I wish I could be more assertive! I was actually a bit better tonight and spoke up when they were distracting her from dinner etc. with games. The bouncy castle they have got her is for 3 years+ and she got her head trapped in the blow up rail twice, it would bloody kill her if I left the room to even pee. They actually come in while I'm feeding LO and give her books or toys etc. while I'm clearly trying to feed her! And today LO was pulling at her nappy under her dress so MIL randomly strips her nappy off in the middle of my living room. Silly things annoy me :rofl:

And if they are here near bedtime I tidy the toys away saying it's bedtime and they get them back out (last time I put everything away and ran LOs bath and MIL actually got LOs big car out and start pushing her round the house as it was the only toy they could find). But this time I was very firm and kept saying no to LO and shut the curtains. I have ongoing "issues" with them since the day she was born MIL took her off me to dress her and then insisted I wasn't fitting the carseat right so I let her do it to save an argument, got home after a 45min journey across the dual carriageway to find out she hadn't even strapped the carseat in properly! Then all the demands to stop breastfeeding so she could give LO a bottle and saying she clearly needed it etc. (I really struggling with BF and it didn't work out).

She did lose interest in LO once she got to about 7/8 month old and we only saw her every 7 or 8 weeks but the past couple of months with baby coming she has been here twice a week at least. I wouldn't mind so much but people need to leave at bedtime/naptime or busy themselfs away and they refuse. I have told OH that when baby arrives we are having no visitors at bedtime and I hope he speaks up!

I wish I was the type to speak up and say "well go do the dishes or washing" when the ILs are around insisting they just want to help.

Ooops, pregnancy hormones rant!
 
I think I may have said ohh you bought me something to cook tomorrow what you making tonight????
lol

I just tell my in laws to bog off, they are used to it
 
This is why I really don't want visitors with baby as your in laws sound exactly like mine. They are controlling and won't listen to what I say. I know as soon as MIL comes round she will start insisting everything I am doing is wrong, and I should be doing it her way. I am really cautious of offending people but OH isn't particularly close to his mum and he will tell her to leave and be forceful especially if he thinks she's bothering me. She thinks she has rights to the baby and that her and OH's little sister will be allowed to just come round whenever they want and snatch baby away she says "you won't get a look in edgeways" like it doesn't bother me. She doesn't like me or didn't until I got pregnant because I finally spoke up when my OH was in hospital last year. His lung collapsed and he had to have surgery to fix it. He wanted just me and his mum there visiting after his surgery and she planned on taking his 2 younger brothers and younger sister. I told her that it wasn't what he wanted and she shouldn't be taking the kids and that one of his younger brothers (who isn't that much younger at 24) should look after the other 2 (8 and 12 at the time) whilst we go to the hospital. She was like "oh I wasn't going to take them in with me" she was going to leave them sitting outside the ward after making them sit in the car for an hour (we are in Scarborough and he was in Hospital in Hull) and just me his eldest younger brother and her would go in. I said he didn't want his other brother there either and she threw such a paddy. FINE we won't go at all then. So I told her she was being selfish and childish and she should grow up and think about what her son wants. We went just the two of us but she's hated me ever since...until I got pregnant that was and that's only because she thinks it's another person in the world she gets to control I swear to god. She keeps telling me what I should dress her in, told me what name I could have!!! It's awful.

Didn't mean that to turn into such a rant lol x
 
Ahhhh scary!

MIL can try but will fail telling me what to do especially when she knows she's made a mess of her own kids!
LOL I just realised you can see her on face book whoops
 
Ergg i had a problem like this on Connies bday after I made a massive point of 'Connie needs her dinner' everyone was meant to leave at 6 but didnt til half 6! MIL was feeding her cake while I'm trying to do dinner. 1, she could have some after her dinner and 2, I wanted to give her it ayway! Sh even made a comment about 'I know you need dinner but you can have some cake' so was fully aware and needless to say Connie didnt eat her dinner.
 
Hehe just thinking abby doesn't much like cake unless i have made it!!! She gave teh icing bit of an iced bun back yesterday
