lupine congrats on being a new aunt/godmother! glad everything went ok for your SIL. whats ventouse? i probably dont want to know lol.

poppy your TEMPS! whoo whats that! you sure you dont wanna test

tink and coral-ahh you guys just make me want to go buy baby stuff with all your talk!! I guess I am pretty much ok to do that now huh.. hmm... not a good sign lol ive been itching to go crazy and buy baby stuff ugh!

Actually already have baby stuff, people keep bringing presents already! lol SIL stopped over with shopping bags full of winnie the pooh outfits, bibs, caps and booties, blankets, etc. And someone got me a high chair? lol all kinds of silly things coming my way alreadyy. I picked winnie the pooh for nursery theme, its EVERYWHEREeeee.

MC i thoroughly enjoyed your smilies. Maybe your m/s is gone for good! I feel like mine has been leaving.. slowly. fx!

Damita glad baby is ok, you got to throw the shower!? how exciting!!

 

[poppy666]

Hopes heres a link to it, its like a hover sucks the baby out lmao I refused Forceps in my birthplan cos of bad stories and told midwife if anything they could use the ventouse, which they nearly did cos i was getting really tired x https://www.babycentre.co.uk/pregnancy/labourandbirth/labourcomplications/assisteddelivery/

as for my temps i give up with looking now lol cos coral and Tink think i may have ov'd on cd15 i think they said x

 

[Tinkerbellxxx]

Congratulations Aunty Lupine!!!!!!!!! Awww can't wait to see him yes go get some rest honey, you must be shattered x

Hopes, yes go and buy something. Someone brought me a highchair also????? seams a little silly to me since it wont go in it till its about 6 months a little chair would have been more useful at first but hey, its sweet of peeps isn't it? Wow sounds like you have tons of stuff already! lucky girl, I think pooh is a lovely theme for the nursery, its timeless and very sweet. x

My little princess is having a real kick about tonight, her feet are right low. Soooooooo precious a feeling, she tends to be quiet by day and get more and more active towards bedtime. Thankfully she seems to settle down again when i go to bed, FX that lasts the settling down at bed time thing i mean not dancing into the night!

Good evening China! :wave: x

Duplicate post.

Awww congrats lupine. I guess the baby wasn't so big in the end huh. Now u can rest sweetie. X

Hopes thats nice that you are getting gifts already. Do you think you will have a baby shower?

 

[Hopes314]

poppy thanks for the reading material.. FORCEPS! oh my gosh. EPISIOTOMY! ahhhh never! can you say ahead of time "can you please not cut my vagina?" lol that sounds silly now but i was being serious. has anyone on here ever had these things? gosh!

 

[Hopes314]

Awww congrats lupine. I guess the baby wasn't so big in the end huh. Now u can rest sweetie. X

coral yes my MIL and SIL have already started planning out a baby shower and are renting a place and doing all the food and everything!? they are just too excited

this might be a silly question but do you guys do baby showers there? nobody on here has ever mentioned anything about one so i didn't know .. lol

 

[poppy666]

Hopes you can do a birth plan beforehand, but its better to tear in my opinion than to be cut, to be cut its a straight line and it takes longer to heal oppose to a tear which is jagged... i tore with all my boys and got stitches but was worth it x

No we dont have baby showers cos us Brits are tight arses but would love them over here x

 

[coral11680]

Hopes it's quite a new thing to have a baby shower here and they tend not to be as big in my experience but are def getting more popular.
Hi tink and poppy and china!
Hopes I had episiotomy with Chloe but no forceps or anything.

I've heard that too, about it being better to just tear. Then it makes me wonder why do doctors do episiotomies in the first place? Irritating. In terms of the birth plan, I'm pretty sure that the doctors that I see right now aren't into that. They would probably look at me silly if I told them what I had in mind for a birth plan lol. Gosh they wouldn't even let me decline a pap smear, let alone let me say my plan for giving birth! I think I may soon be switching hospitals, a local hospital in our city has their own group midwife practice and from what I understand they are a little more concerned about what mom wants for her and baby, yet they still offer all the meds and procedures to people who end up needing that too.

 

[poppy666]

I just drilled what i did and didnt want into my OHs head and i remember whilst trying to push korben out he was telling midwife 'she dont want forceps' lol x

 

[Hopes314]

coral WHEW! so you guys over there all have to buy ALL of the baby stuff yourself!? seems crazy lol. (although it probably evens out over time because you aren't buying everyone else baby stuff for their showers too. hm.)

did they ASK you if you wanted an episiotomy? i think if it were my doctor they would just do it lol. Thats how much trust I have in my doctors right now hah. Gosh that seems like it would take forever to heal. (am picturing walking like I just rode a horse)

my husband probably couldn't hold his composure well enough during that time to be able to remember what i do and dont want

Hey girls!
I've not been around the last couple of days because im back at work and been super busy, im working in a different ward for the next couple of weeks and so far im loving it wish i could just stay there instead of going back to my horrid place of work but on the plus side the ward im on just now has a job coming up in April and they said i should apply, FX!
Im only on cd5 so not much to report except that i didn't take soy this month but only because on cd 3 i was so ill all day i wouldn't of managed to take the tablets without being sick but hey ho never mind just a normal relaxed cycle for me using opk's starting on cd10.
I had to read back 40+ pages lol and i am so overwhelmed i cannot remember what all the post were about now but i did want to say that all the pics i saw were beautiful and im sad i missed MC's pic's and Poppy's vid but im sure they were also gorgeous u should all be proud u have brought (or are bringing) new life into the world and sadly some women do not get that joy! Plus i have to add that like Babydream i have always found Amy rather rude however that is just my opinion and i will make no further comment on the situation!
I LOVE YOU ALL!
Congratulations Lupine, i can't wait to see a pic of your gorgeous nephew!!!
Preggo ding dong's i hope you are all well as well as baby ding dong's, Coral and Phoebe i can't wait to hear about your scans on Friday. . . im exciteeeeed!
