TTC Lucky Conkers!-Our first Conker has been born!!

[Mrs W 11]

Aww Fleur I can understand that as Freya was back to back too. Good luck. Hopefully she will move soon. X

Ps I'm cd14 so waiting to ov. If you could have the baby in about 4-5 days I should be ovulating so perfect baton handing time!! I'm doing a trial for clear blue with swanky hormone indicator opks that give low, high and peak fertility, just like the fertility monitor. I'm still on low at the moment. You know when you used your cbfm did you dtd on all high and peak days? X

 

[Princesskell]

Oooo mrsw and Fleur that could be perfect timing!!

Fleur the baby's spines is the heaviest part so you need to try and get gravity to help turn it. The all fours position is the best option...they recommend cleaning the kitchen floor for at least ten minutes a day!! Have you a birthing ball or bean bag? Try lay on your front and read magazines or watch tv. Hope it works xxx

Ricschick...lovely to hear from you!! Glad things are going well. It's very exciting that we are so close to two Conkers! Xxx

 

[Fleur29]

Thanks girlies! That's good advice. I'm currently slumped over my birthing ball and been on all 4's this avo. Seriously as if it wasn't grim enough being 41 wks preggers...!!

Ricschick - I so think you will beat me to it!!!!

Mrs w - my waters-breaking-induction is scheduled for Tuesday so that would be about right!! How spooky!!

Your clear blue trial sounds exciting mrs w! We didn't dtd every high day, I think we did it the first and third high days (my dh stamina is not huge!!!!!!) and then on the first peak day and that was it. With the cbfm they say the most important day is the final high but it's impossible to know what date that would be?!! Anyway I'm fairly sure we conceived from dtd on the first peak day - and we dtd early on in the day so that may have helped too, before the egg went AWOL... Well that's my theory anyway! Lots of luck to you - keep us posted. I loved my cbfm and loved seeing the egg symbol!! X

 

[Fleur29]

A very very quick post but mrs w - I am hereby handing over the pregnancy baton to you!

Our first conker was born last night at 1.30am! He is just perfect, we are so happy! No name as yet. Also more of a boulder than a conker at 9lb 8oz! Born in the birthing pool with no pain relief!! Can you believe it?! I will post a proper update soon but felt I needed to tell you all after the week of fleur labour watch we have all been on!

Also just to say this is not public knowledge yet as haven't done formal announcements so if I'm friends with you on Facebook please don't say anything just yet ;-) not that you would but just in case!

Love to you all. Have so enjoyed sharing this pregnancy journey with you all and the fun of continuing to do so through everyone else's journeys.

Love, Fleur and baby boy fleur xxxxxxx
