Becks your so close now I'm sure every twinge is scary ! But sounds like you really are in pain , could it be trapped wind ? Maybe lie down for a while and see does it ease . If not maybe think of getting it checked out xxxxx

It's the lightning pains which were so bad, I've never had them before this pregnancy which is odd. Mw said its baby's head banging on cervix. I've been getting them for a few weeks but that was the worse bout I've ever had. Lying still on my left side now so they've eased off. Still have bh every 10 mins but at least I don't feel like I need the loo constantly that feeling seems to have passed. Hoping it all dies down I'm not ready yet! Xxx

With my first, before I realised I was in labour, I felt all day that I needed to have a poo!

Maybe your body is getting itself ready!

Is your bag packed and ready?

 

[Oasis717]

Oh no really? These bh are quite strong felt that last few up inside too. Yes bags all ready and dh and dd 12 tidied all the house too. Guess just have see if these contractions ease off or get stronger! Xxx

Crystal, glad that you have had a nice lazy day.

Becks - Some people just aren't worth getting upset about, don't let her get to you. I think she is jealous and what you do is your business, no-one elses. So annoying. Hope you are ok? I would get checked out hun xx

 

[josie1234]

Lisa - thinking of you hun for your angelversary. xxxxx Big hugs

 

[Oasis717]

Thanks ever so much Jo I think all you lovely ladies are right. Adam and me are v happy and how many children we have and at what age is no business of hers. Oh well. Guess she's not changed since school. She was v jealous of me then. I'm just waiting to see if the contractions ease up or get stronger. They're a bit irregular right now. If they get worse I will go to the hospital but I really don't want to call my mil out unless I'm sure as she works two jobs and is in bed by now. Still got strong period pains. Xxx
Thinking of you too Lisa xxxx

 

[Left wonderin]

Ooooh Becks I'm stalking !!! Xxxx

 

[crysshae]

Like Lisa, I always felt the need to go poo at the beginning of labor too.

It's sounding very promising. I'm stalking too!

And if you are going into labor, good luck and positive thoughts and prayers for a wonderful experience all around.

 

[Oasis717]

At the hospital now not in labour but getting him checked cause his hb has dipped a few times on monitor xx

 

[crysshae]

Glad they are checking on him. I hope everything turns out perfect.

Are you still hurting?

 

[Oasis717]

No I'm ok now. Have stay overnight though cause his hb dipped a few times xx

 

[crysshae]

I hope you can get some rest and that you and Brooklyn do just fine.

 

[dancareoi]

No I'm ok now. Have stay overnight though cause his hb dipped a few times xx

You're in the best place. It's such a comfort being on that monitor.

When you've been through what we have its so much better to get thing checked out.

Try and get some sleep, not easy in hosp and keep us updated

 

[Oasis717]

Managed an hour but there's a baby crying in another room so am awake. I'll be hearing that myself soon they think the dips were just the monitor loosing him as they followed big movements and the second trace they did was no problems. A doctor is going to look at the trace before I go but the midwife was very happy with it. So tired. After two quiet days Brooklyn didn't stop moving. Missing dh loads. Can't wait to go home. He had stay there because of the children xxx

 

[Oasis717]

Forgot to say last night but in triage the first person I saw sitting in an office was the nightmare mw I had with Caseys birth. Ruth. Couldn't forget her face or voice. She came out and showed me into the room to be monitored. Couldn't make it up. Now I'm dreading having her in labour even more as will have to ask for a different mw xx

 

[Creative]

Don't let her anywhere near you. It won't help your mental welbeing and postitive birthing experience to have her around. Maybe call the SOM in advance and request that you been seen by other people so that when you are actually in labour that you don't have to deal with the situation.

 

[Left wonderin]

Becks holy crap its all go with you ladies near the end !!!!! Delighted to hear your little man doing just fine , bold lad giving mammy a scare !! Or bold monitor ! Hope you are feeling ok and get to go home for some rest soon xxxxx

 

[Oasis717]

Yes I've been given a number to call to speak to someone so hoping to avoid being seen by her at all. I can't believe she was the first person I saw last night. Was awful seeing her. Just been seen by the consultant who's v happy with my trace. Said Brooklyn is v active (typical after 2 quiet days I feel like a fake!) he's actually moving so much it's hurting this morning! Just waiting for paperwork and I can go thankfully xx

 

[Oasis717]

Thanks Regina can't wait get home and see dh and have a sleep xxx
