I have that paranoid feeling all the time...that she'll pop out a boy. I can't afford a whole new wardrobe lol x

I unsubscribed by accident again then couldn't find this thread on my phone - oops!!

No more babies yet then I want someone to chat with. I'm tired. Alex is being good though, gets a little unsettled with wind sometimes but generally only lasts an hour or so. And last night he was much better and actually slept a little bit between feeds! He's feeding 2.5hourly though cos he's so small and he takes forever to finish a bottle then ages to wind and then 15/20mins to settle down so by the time I get him down I only usually have about an hour - an hour 15mins before he's awake again!

It's DD who's being naughty and making things difficult. She's not napping and so grumpy and naughty, refusing to do anything and just being a little bugger really. I hope she settles soon. She doesn't seem phased by the new baby and I'm spending plenty of time with her too so I think it must just be teeth??

Also, I wanted to warn you ladies off EPO. It's the only thing I can think of that could have made my waters break early as I'd been taking it orally and had used it internally until I had that bleed and pains a week before and had stopped taking it then they settled down now I look back. My sister started using it too and her waters broke at 38weeks on Weds but baby suddenly dropped and turned breech as he wasn't engaged and she had to be rushed off for an emergency C-Section. It's the only thing I can think of that could have changed things for us this time as in our family and in my sisters 2 previous births and mine too the waters have broken right at the pushing stage or have had to be ruptured late in labour. So I googled it and have found some studies linking EPO to to PROM, arrest of descent (baby getting stuck on way down) and ventouse etc. Another one I read said that EPO had the potention to weaken the sac containing the amniotic fluid hence PROM. So possibly for messing with nature I got an early baby and my sister ended up with a section and this has never happened in our family before

Girls do not laugh. I got stuck in bed! needed a 5am pee went to roll over and a combination of pain and just not being able to move stopped me! My pelvis had locked open! Matt was at work this could have been disastrous! I have no idea how i got up but took over 10 minutes to do it. I have messaged my MW as it's just dangerous being home alone with a 1 year old and getting paralysed in bed

 

[misse04]

Oh no hope that gets better my hips have been killing!

my bumps completely dropped from 2 days I've got 2 37 week pics to put up but I can't do it until I get in im just on my mums iPad and can't figure out uploading pics. OH didn't have work today so I layed in til 10 and had about 12 hours much needed (even if uncomfortable) sleep

 

[molly85]

theres really only one thing that will sort of my pelvis. and he's not obliging

 

[misse04]

I have the same problem lol but I carried on with bad pains in hips for like a month after Connie so hoping I don't this time

 

[molly85]

ohh I don't really remember having an issue after abby I think iwas just relieved to be able to move again

 

[misse04]

this is in 4 days difference... explains the aches lol

 

[molly85]

you dropped your ball! I can't decide whether to get mat to do a knacked on or not with my freaky bump skirt.

All looking round and lovely

 

[kmbabycrazy]

Just been swimming. Am really tired, pelvis is killing me but got to go walk to my mates to pick up the moses basket stand as argos have been fucking my sister about with the one she was supposed to be buying us. And then I have to walk to my mum's.

Really hope she comes soon it's getting so frustrating. It's a week until the day I've always thought she was coming so we'll have to see if I was right. Toby thinks it'll be Wednesday so I hope she likes her big brother and listens to him haha. Tried checking my cervix myself last night...no hope couldn't feel it all!!! So it's not looking positive.

 

[misse04]

We went into town today and then had to leave because i went dizzy and sick ergg then braxton hicks really bad so got myself at it and its all gone now Need to stop kidding myself with these signs. Lots of presure in my bum lol think his head must be resting

 

[kmbabycrazy]

I have a swollen back...its weird :-\. It hurts too and am having braxton hicks x

 

[molly85]

God it's all down hill from here.

Spoke to midwives about last night, got to go in if it happens tonight or get hold of MW to bring consultant forward

 

[misse04]

I would have a nice bath KM. Ive been thinking I might myself. Ive never had somany baths in my life just feels nice on my back lol.

Hopefully it doesnt happen again. Not long now!

I seem to have convinced myself that ill be going into labour any day and seem to have forgot my due date is over 2 weeks away

 

[molly85]

hope not getting abs up in the middle of the night would be a real pain if they say come in

 

[molly85]

Bath does sound good as does sleep

 

[kmbabycrazy]

Yeah I'm tempted to get in the bath...some more clary sage time lol. OH has promised me a nice massage later too. Might convince him to do my pressure points and see if accupressure works. Your supposed to do each point for 10 minutes at a time and I just can't be bothered lol x

 

[molly85]

how many points are there?

 

[misse04]

hmmm might copy yuou on accupressure idea... think ill do some googling

 

[kmbabycrazy]

There's a couple there's a video on youtube if you search accupressure to induce labour it's the first proper video. The frame that it shows has a foot in it x
