Hiya,

Going to try and log on more frequently and say hello missing reading how everyone is getting on!

Betty been reading the comments about an epi - I wasn't keen either and didn't end up having one I somehow managed on just gas and air but the best advice anyone gave me was to not have a plan with pain relief. I reckon every labour is totally different and if I am totally honest mine wasn't that bad just extremely long from Sat to Tuesday morning! I was just at home uncomfortable and the pain didn't get any worse for me I was at 8cm when got to the hospital and the pain was the same at 8-10cm as it was when I was only 1-2cm so who knows??

I wasn't keen on being unable to move or being on a bed but in the end that's exactly what happened at the pushing stage and by that point you don't care. Gas and air worked great for me the hardest part was pushing but that's because I was shattered and Aaron was huge plus in slightly wrong position not because of the pain. You will be fine!

Abbi sorry to hear you and your little man have been feeling ill, I have had a bad cold but Aaron has avoided it thank god.

Any of the mums tried waterbabies or swimming lessons? I have just signed up for one which starts in May can't wait!! xx

hi everyone!!

kate woo exciting!

abbi, samie- allister loved swimming, still need to take him again, we want to take him to haven when the hols are over. and then we wil go for a weekend to one in a few months i think!!

abbi glad u 2 r better and i LOVE my quinny!its so cool much prefer it,i wud defo have another one! he looks dead cosy in it too, its got a sheepskin/navy footmuff with it!

no bugger wants my m+p it literally comes with everything as good as new, it all mounts to £700 on their site, and no one will buy it for like £180 sad times!! had to lower it to 150 now and stil no interest! gona be selling it for buttons soon! gettin in the way now!

kix we havent got anything round here thats waterbabies or lessons its rubbish, but i would if ther was one, they look great! glad 2 c a post from u!

i agree every labour is so diff, my friend said she wanted homebirth no pain relief, ended up with a c sec! u just cant predict it, but im sure wil be fine!

i did end up with ventouse and stitches but only because allister was awkward and not in the right angle, but the pushing was totally painless i thought!

Hey everyone
Kix nice to hear from you, I did waterbabies with Jack, it was fabulous, I wanted to sign up for the May course with Ollie but am not going to fit it in, will prob start after the June half term. We paid for the underwater photo shoot with Jack its in my random album on facebook, have a look.
Xx

kix, fab to hear from you thanks for your comments on the epi, i have said all along ill keep an open mind re pain relief, as ive never given birth i have no idea how bad it will be or how ill cope! hope i can do it just on gas and air but who knows

having said all this about epi etc i am actually not worried about giving birth at all, will prob be scared when it all starts but right now it doesnt frighten me at all, our little lady is coming out one way or another

hay thats rubbish noone wats your m+p, where have you advertised it? there is a selling bit on here maybe pop it on there?

your lucky that ventousse worked i always hear they pop off and ppl end up with forceps

my mum always says the pushing is the best bit as you push against the pains and they go

i cant begin to describe how excited i am for her to arrive (after a little more cooking )

saw mw today and she has turned head down now mw just put cephalic on my notes, does that literally mean head down?

bp and everything fine, my GTT was fab less than half what they allow so all good there

she hurt me when feeling for baby tho, she had one hand on her head one on her bottom and wiggled her, its the weirdest sensation, like i could feel the whole of her moving

fundal height is now at 34 tho, she wasnt worried and said its prob because she is head down and not trasverse now so filling more of the womb also that she is free in pelvis, she said as she engages the fundal height will go down

i have growth scan in 3 weeks so all will be revealed

but for now glad we are on track

Sinn I didn't go to the doctor about stopping cerazette, just stopped and only went to the doctor when I knew something wasn't right. Thankfully this week has flown by so far so not too much longer til appointment on tuesday

 

[Samie18]

Yup cephalic is head down. I was scared to death of giving birth then soon as I was in labour I wasn't scared at all it was toooo exciting!

Sophia loved swimming can't wait to go again

 

[MrsHopeful]

AmeliaLily/Anouska, ii told them a year in advance when I was starting to TTC, and they know from me going to get more pills so know its been since July, but last cycle was 22days, 31 the month before, and they keep changing so I am going to see what they say, I also keep getting temperatures so will mention that aswell.

 

[MrsHopeful]

Welcome sugar fairy

 

[MrsHopeful]

Welcome Kateface it took me 5 weeks I think for first AF after cerazette, I did get some pregnancy symptoms when I came off it but it wouldn't have spooky my holiday. I came off in July and no luck yet so everyone seems to have different experiences when they come off cerazette
-sorry for all these posts, I'm posting az I read as catching up on quite a few pages tonight

 

[MrsHopeful]

Sinn, I told my GP about a year before o
I came off, they gave me s test for German measles, as that can be harmful if you are of-that's all though.

 

[hay246]

Didn't think of that Betty, I think the main problem is the fact it's collection an where I live!! It's on eBay, gumtree and preloved. I will try it on here tomorrow!
Glad she's head down now, I was like that wasn't worried at all just thought wel baby got to come out lol. Did get a bit scared towards end tho but mainly just of the unknown!

So happy towie is back I love it

[annanouska]

wooo so much has happend in one day! i cant remember who said what now!

well done on kate for the last pill-dont despair through the next few weeks if you need anything just ask

hope everyone is keeping chins up with long cycles and things. im not sure who it was (maybe abbi) who used agnus cactus to shorten them?

betty-our LO was head down at 28 wk scan too. think he stays mostly head down but sometimes rolls into a c shape then straightens back up. ive no idea-hes quite a funny baby really he doesnt do anything right, he grows at weird rates, moves at inconsistent patterns and likes to tease you! hes very much like DH in temperment he appears quite chilled out really (can you say you ahve a chilled out bean?!) loud noises and htings dont phase him he just potters about when he wants to! today was funny though as i think he wanted ot sleep but i was thirsty so kept having cold water and he would wake up make a drama then go back to sleep, think i kept waking him up!

lovely to hear all these LO going swimming and water babies etc- best thing ever to get them used it young. ive probably bored you with this before but in my slim and fit youth i swam nationally and am a qualified swim teacher so any swimming queries give me a shout I would help as much as I can!

feel lots better today just very hungry maybe this weird rainy rubbish weather! xxxx

 

[Samie18]

Wow Beth you have done loads and qualified in so much it's fab!
I'm so scared of putting Sophia under the water because she breaths it in!!! A friend who is a swimming instructor said to blow in their face just before so they hold their breath but i can'tttttt it feels so mean =o(
She really is terrible for inhaling everything..... Ashton and parson occupy her lungs too lol its not good!

 

[Honeybear1976]

Omg Sammie where did you get ashton and parsons from? I may burgle you for it, Ollie screamed for almost 2hrs solid last night with his tooth The first one is through but bless him he was chewing the hell out of his fingers. X

 

[Samie18]

I was recommended them when i was pregnant so i saw some in the local pharmacy back in Dec so i bought them. They only had 2 boxes so i got them both not realising it would be impossible to get them now!! Soooo glad i got some because they really seem to help, she's been such a wingey baby tonight =o(

 

[hay246]

Samie and honey a friend told me nelsons teething powder may be worth a try if u can't get the other one?
X

 

[Diddums]

Aww is bonjella not good enough? I know nothing lol

AFM another morning of Pre-O temp and negative hpt last night so started high dose 7000-10000mg a day plus parsley tea. Hopefully AF will arrive in the next few days!!

Xx

 

[Honeybear1976]

Oh ok samie ill forgive you then
Diddums hope something happens either way in next few days, bonjella is ok but relief only lasts few seconds so if they are having a few hrs of pain not much use.
Hay nelsons are s*** I did try them although I did check the ingredients beforehand and they're not the same anyway so wasn't expecting them to be as good but they didnt seem to have any effect at all! Hes got his first tooth now so Im hoping the rest will come easier than that one

 

[Samie18]

We got the nelson also but dunno if they work yet as haven't tried them. I don't actually know if she's seething she just has grizzly evenings sometimes and chomps on everything so I'm guessing....
