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

[kmbabycrazy]

Thank you ladies scan was amazing she was looking right at us. I say "she" we didn't get to find out. Next scan is 2nd March. And despite my thoughts that they'd put us back they've actually put us forward a day. New due date is 20th July xx

 

[molly85]

Wahoo has anyone actually gone back?

 

[kmbabycrazy]

Good point Molly. Hmmm

 

[molly85]

lol this is a thread of big babies. * pokes tummy* jeez i look fat

 

[stardust599]

I feel like I have a football or something in my tummy :-S

It's really hard and uncomfortable, can't get comfy at nights! Fatigue is still hitting me really hard, I have MW next Tues so going to ask if they can test me for anaemia again cos I'm sure something is wrong.

I was put back a day Not that it matters he/she will come when they please anyway. Due dates don't really mean much Connie was 11 days late!

 

[kmbabycrazy]

Yeah Toby was 5 days late. And my mum had 5 kids and none of us came on our due date. I was the closest at a day early. I am very much of the mindset that pregnancy is 42 weeks and therefore I do not expect the baby to come before August...that way I won't be disappointed lol

 

[stardust599]

I was induced at 37 weeks with my LO so I'd love to make it to 39-40weeks this time, don't fancy going overdue though, I'll be getting the castor oil out on my due date

 

[kmbabycrazy]

My sister's friend self induced with Castor Oil. DON'T DO IT!!!! It's horrendous. She threw up twice before going into labour and you will have a lot of accidents. I don't plan on doing anything to self induce as she was so embarrassed she said it was the worst thing and took away the magic of actually going into labour. Can you imagine having diarrhoea whilst giving birth...not nice. Trust me don't do it!! She said that every time she pushed she just went again. I think I'll let nature take it's course thank you.

I already did cos of the drugs they gave me to induce, I made a mess while pushing too! They're not coming near me again with no induction drip or drugs this time. I likely won't be allowed past 40 weeks.

I need to get myself into labour somehow before they induce me, my birth story is here somewhere, it was pretty horrific!

Maybe I'll have to look at other ideas instead though

 

[kmbabycrazy]

I tried everything other than castor oil lol at one point I was bouncing on my birthing ball eating curry followed by fresh pineapple then when Toby's dad came home I pounced on him ( despite not wanting sex since I was 3 months pregnant ). My idea of dirty talk was "Just get this baby out of me, PLEASE!" lol. None of it worked though. And I only went 5 days over. Hopefully it's be something similar this time. I don't like the idea of being induced though. My labour was a pretty good one and I've heard that being induced doesn't make for an easy labour lol.

 

[misse04]

I tried everything to induce Connie, I was desperate and NOTHING worked sex, bouncing on the ball, 200 hundred star jumps, running and jumping up and down the stairs, spicy food, skipping, walking for ages, had a sweep, cant remember what else but still nothing its amazing what you will try!

 

[misse04]

and when she finally decided to come she was back to back and was in labour 43hours lol she didn't want to come out!

 

[kmbabycrazy]

I know my street and the two next to it are on quite steep hills. Every day I would walk up one side down the other...onto the next street...up one side, down the other and the next street and then do it back again. They'll come when they come I suppose. We just have to be patient...after all they're definitely worth the wait!!

 

[molly85]

lol we did sex sweep then i was induced at 39 weeks lol. no syntocin this time they can pop waters and wait i might get to be comfy this time jeez hold this poke that all attached to a drip

 

[Mosnippy]

awww KM glad the scan went ok! we have the same due dates!!!


i am happy for the baby to stay as long as possible haha i aint looking forward to labour if my past experiances with everything else, are anything to go by it will not be easy! haha

 

[molly85]

LOL remind her of that come July when she's rocking in a corner telling the little monster to get out you no longer want to pee every 15 mintues and would love to see feet not cankles

 

[molly85]

Oh heck Broody I'm not on the front page I'm now the 30th

 

[kmbabycrazy]

Here's my little squidge looking right at the camera lol took a while to get it though.

Looks really alien like when it's facing you lol...OH started singing the x-files theme tune lol

 

[misse04]
