Those TTC for awhile.

[moter98]

i think it's very hard for her to be the only one ttc while we all have had or will have babies soon.

I miss pinky but I understand it would be hard for her to come on here.
My friend gave me her old maternity clothes. Lots of it never warn before! It's like getting a new wardrobe! Very exciting! X

 

[moter98]

Oh cool. Love getting new clothes

 

[moter98]

looks like LO wants to stay tucked safe inside for awhile yet. no progress yet. dr thinks i will go till at least 39 weeks. oh well, just gives me more time to eat a lot, haha

 

[sarahuk]

Oh no!!! Was hoping you might be starting to go! hmm 39wks still technically early tho! Come on little man..mummy wants to meet you! x

 

[rooster100]

Ok that's only two weeks away! Think of it as the tww with a massive bfp baby at the end! X

 

[sarahuk]

Thats a really good way of looking at it!!

 

[moter98]

yeah, it's really not that much longer to wait...just getting very uncomfortable. but if baby isn't ready yet, i can deal with it till he is. i figure i have 4 weeks at the very most cause they will induce if he isn't here by 41 weeks. dr said since i went to 39+2 with ds that's probably around when i will go this time too. and he says baby is measuring close to the same as ds, may be just a little bit bigger.
i guess all these cramps are just a come with the territory thing!

 

[sarahuk]

Can imagine it must be getting real uncomfy now..tho I will keep hoping that the cramps are the start of things gearing up to get going How much did Aden weight when he was born? xx

 

[moter98]

Aden was 6 lbs 12 ozs born at 39+2. Based on what dr told me I would guess this one will be 7 lbs...not too much bigger. My belly is smaller so far this time, because I started at a lower weight and have gained less. Baby sure feels big to me though! Taken up all roomin my belly now.
Sarah, are you feeling better now?

J was definately ready to come, just my body clearly had no idea what to do. He came out totally clean. No vernix and minimal languo on his body. I think he was ready at 37 weeks when I first went into labour lol.

 

[moter98]

Oh wow faythe! I don't remember ds coming out anything but clean either, but I think a nurse may have cleaned him a bit before showing him to me.

 

[Faythe]

Did I ever post a photo of J just born?

Literally just been born and plonked on me straight away.

 

[moter98]

oh my gosh adorable! wow, he looks squeaky clean!!!!!

 

[Faythe]

Mad isn't it? They then cut his cord and whisked him off to go under that warmer thing as he wasn't breathing properly. He was fine in a few mins though.

 

[moter98]

They showed me ds and then took him and I didn't get to hold him till after they got the placenta out! They kept telling me no but I don't know why

 

[Faythe]

How odd!

 

[moter98]

I know. Was just discussif this very thing with the dr this week. He was telling me how if the placenta doesn't come out this time I can try breastfeeding to get it to release. I told him I asked to do that last time and wasn't allowed. He says he doesn't know why. Only thing I can think of is that ds was born with the clubfoot. But don't know why that would matter unless he was needing to be checked more thoroughly than most babies for other abnormalities. I never did ask cause they have me nubain shortly after the birth and that pretty much just made me feel out of it...no pain relief though

 

[sarahuk]

I cant believe they wouldnt let you bf to help stimulate the placenta

We need another bump pic!! Sounds like a nice sized baby to me. I have a feeling Ill be having a big one!

Faythe I cant believe how clean he was when Jacob was born!! I dont think ive ever seen a cleaner baby! Defo sounds like he was ready early!

Urgh I am sooooo over this being sick business now. I dont see this stopping till birth!

How re you all today? x
