Happy 4th of july US people!

OK question guys. My friend's water broke yesterday morning and of course they told her to come into the hospital. (the same hospital im having my baby at) Anyway, she wanted to do it med-free and be able to move around and all that during labor, which is what I want as well. But once she was admitted to hospital that morning they put her in a bed, strapped on some monitors, and told her she wasn't allowed to get up. They wouldnt even let her get up to pee, gave her the choice of either a bedpan or a catheter. She of course got very uncomfortable laying in bed and not being allowed to move. When she got there she was only 1cm. She was 4cm a few hours later, but was sooo uncomfortable being stuck in the stupid bed like that pissing in a bedpan! So she gave in and got the epidural. From there she spent the entire night at 4cm dilated, because the epidural slowed the labor. If she doesnt have baby in a few hours she is going to have to get a csec because of the 24 hour rule after water breaks.

SO.. my question to you all is.. is this common? Is it common to have to lay in a bed and not move after your water breaks? She said they told her it was an infection risk to move around or something? I'm very angry about the situation because it seems like.. no wonder so many people have to get csecs, she was totally just forced through this entire process!

From watching OBEM USA it seems fairly normal for ladies to be stuck in a bed, strapped to monitors and given and epidural I'm not sure why though.

Had a FAB day today (which has just been totally ruined... more to follow). Went for sushi with my best friend and we went to the cinema to see 'Bridesmaids' - such an awesome film!! We had pic n mix and then Thorntons ice cream afterwards.

My mum had her hysterectomy today and is apparently in a lot of pain although the op went according to plan. I went to the church prayer meeting and then prayed for her which was really emotional for me but I'm so thankful to them for that.

Just had a... disagreement with a mutual friend on FB. She likes to have a certain amount of drama in her life and the most recent thing is that her 9 year old daughter (who was allowed to go there without her parents) saw a flasher in our local park. I don't know if it's true or not, the police are checking CCTV but she has kept on about it since, warning people from the park it happened at.

I know she is a Christian and a woman of God so I asked her if she thought it might be an act of satan that this should happen in the week that our church has planned a 'big event' in the same park to preach the gospel to the locals and hold a family fun day completely free of charge, it seems so coincidental to me.

Obviously she is upset, as I would be if ANYTHING happened to my daughter, but then she turned on me, accusing me of making the event more important than her daughter, goodness me I'm so annoyed!

How is everyone else?

thanks poppy I think you are the very first! Not making much of my birthday this year, 22 isn't a super exciting number or anything, and baby coming is a much more exciting event really. Wish it was his/her birthday instead.

Happy Birthday Hopes!!!! ​

What are your plans honey? x

Morning all other Ding Dongs!

Well last night was Lily's first small bottle from daddy. I like to introduce a bottle at night early on after my first point blank refused at 6 weeks old. DH enjoyed it, he also bathed her on his own. He's good with her, but I realized I'm hogging her so thought it would be good for me to step back a tiny bit and let him build his confidence with her. No that I rested though was setting up the bath and expressing milk etc anyhow xxxxxx

Happy Birthday Hopes

Lupine, so sorry missed your post. What a rotten time your having I'm glad you have got some support and meds, so hope things get better for you soon. I am thinking of you and praying for you xxxx

Puppycat sorry you day went from great to rubbish. Sounds like a great day your church have planned in the park. And very insightful of you to think about the possibility of spiritual attack, your right, it does often appear when great good is to be done. To me, your opportunity here might be to accept how it has made this mother feel, and to pray against any bad feeling between you both and / or others (which to me could also be the same sort of thing - attack achieving division in the church family) That is all you need to do, try not to feel wound up over it I'm sure it will be a great day, when is it? I'll pray for you all x

Lily burping much better with the infacol daddy is proud of her x

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HOPES!!

Morning ding dongs!

Just been at the school for 3 hours helping out Ryan's class. It's Design and technology day where parents can come in to help with a project. Today was sewing and stuffing a teddy bear. I'm worn out, most parents didnt go so I helped out 2 other chidren too. It was hot in the classroom too so I'm now trying to cool down!

Glad Lily is doing better on the infacol Tink. What bottle did you give her? is it her first time and did she take it well? I also want to introduce the bottle early so DH can chip in sometimes.

Poppy not long til hols, very exciting!

Morning everyone else
