Enjoy cuddles with Madeleine and Scott. Your little man will be here when he is ready xx

 

[Mummy to be x]

Madeleine is with my mum fast asleep now. In coming to see the consultant tomorrow to push for a c section. I'm just waiting for the registrar to explain the 'risks' to me discharging myself. Xx

 

[ab75]

I hope they give you one. You are going to be nervous for vaginal birth after this xx

 

[Ziggie]

You'll feel so much better when you're home. Archie just wasn't ready to come. I'm willing to bet once you're home and relaxed things will just happen and it will be straightforward bet my right foot.

Hope everyone is okay

I feel like a right idiot I'm googling all different variations of what contractions feel like. All day I have had sharp pains around my back and lower bump, they are slightly painful but not too bad really, at the moment they are about every 8 Minutes But kind of just feel like gas cramps or constipation. Not sure what to think!

How is the nursing going Pink?

Not as well as I wished. He knows there's milk but he won't latch without the darn shield. He gets super fussy and knocks the shield off and we end up giving him a bottle . My pediatrician told me the same as you did, just offer the breast first, about 4 times a day. It would be so much easier to do that if I didn't need the shield. I did finally get him to nurse for almost 20mins today on one side. This is the longest he has lasted since starting. Unfortunately Dh warmed a bottle of milk thinking he wouldn't stay latched, and he ended up eating till sleepy and after 2 hours we had to trash it. I'm not going to give up, I don't expect him to nurse full time as I have to go back to work. But I was expecting to have issues with him taking a bottle before going back not having issues taking the breast .

0203, I only got to endure contractions for a few hours and they weren't too bad, but they felt more like waves of strong menstrual cramps.

 

[ab75]

0203. My contractions always felt like really strong period cramps xx

Good morning ladies,

How are we all?

I have been up most of the night with irregular contractions,lost lots of mucusy plug. Currently feel like someone has stuck a tennis ball up my lady parts!! xx

 

[Carlyp1990]

Amanda you have such a way with words!
I got in bed at 8 last night as I was exhausted and iv just woken up apart from a few brief wake ups through the night. No pains at all for me for the moment! Just an awful headache xx

 

[ab75]

[Carlyp1990]

I wonder how amy is? She's been awfully quiet xx

 

[ab75]

I was hoping from an update from Amy. Hope she is ok. Has she been on facebook? xx

Amy is on her way to see the consultant to push for a section. She had contractions for 23 hours and didn't get past 1cm so does not want to put her body through that again as she is tired and sore. She discharged herself from hospital last night.
Amy. Really hope the consultant agrees xxx
