September Babies Continued

[Mum to three girls]

Diva he looks gorgeous. He actually looks a lot like you.

DLTAG, I actually cried while signing my section consent form! I'm hoping not to need another one but I won't be anywhere near as upset as I was last time if I do. It wasn't that bad.

[DLTAG89]

My goodness its quiet on here, everyone must be very busy looking after bubbas

How many are left now then to be born?

Thorz how are you feeling?

Mum23 I know i'm going to be in bits when i have to sign the form, its going to feel like i'm signing my life away. I really dont feel i can go through with it but i know its the only choice with no risks to bubs :/

[Mum to three girls]

Would making a C-section birth plan help? I've never personally made one but it might make you feel more in control. If everything's straightforward she should only get a quick paeds once over - your DH should be able to cut the cord etc then she should be able to be wrapped and given to your DH etc. most hospitals won't separate you in recovery and a good midwife will make sure she has some early breast feeding time, even if you're feeling a bit off. I remember my biggest issue was that my BP - always highish at the end of pregnancy- dropped rapidly in theatre and stayed low ish in recovery. I had to stay there for ages while it was sorted and was woozey and weird. While I was lying there one of the midwives positioned DD3 so she had a good early feed and even changed sides for me!

We probably need a roll call for who is left. There's DLTAG, mum to three girls, ladylaura, Thorz and who else??

[Thorz300]

Diva, he is beautiful! And you look absolutely perfect! I wish I looked that great after having a baby!

WAG we still haven't seen your little man!

DLTAG sorry about your section I think I would feel scared and defeated too, hopefully it goes smoothly your bAby will make it all worth it.

I'm hanging in the best I can, still unable to walk, or get up or roll over on my own! 20 long more days until my induction day arrives. Who is next to go on our list?

Also I've been having dreams that my ultrasound was wrong and she ends up being a he!! That would devastate me!

[Mum to three girls]

Thorz, that sounds grim. At this stage I'm due last but my BP has been a bit variable so a 38 week induction may still happen. Hopefully not though as I've parent-teacher interviews and a hair cut booked for around that time!

[Wanting-a-girl]

My pain came back so I went to the hospital yesterday got a ct scan and was started on blood thinners for a pulmonary embolism... I go for further testing tomorrow...

[fish2012]

Oh no wag poor you!

The funeral directors called today to arrange our lill ones funeral been crying all day ;-( ds1 helped me give Naomi her first bath today so that was lovely hate feeling sad when I'm enjoying my last newborn ;-(

[Mel1983]

Hey haven't been on in ages but have tried reading up on everything I've missed! Congratulations to all of you that have new babies! They are all so beautiful!!
I'm now 36 weeks have a planned c section for 30th sept! If I last that long! I went into hospital when I was 34 weeks had a bleed, they kept me in for me to have a scan, placenta looked fine so they don't really know what it was. So praying I don't go early. I'd rather go in relaxed on my due day!
This pregnancy is definetly the hardest I've had though, feel painful and quite grumpy! Plus I can hardly walk as I have piles which are horrible, the joys of pregnancy , but it'll be worth it!
I asked again during my last scan what the sex of my little one is, they said girl again! So that means I've had 4 scans which said girl but do u know what I still don't 100% believe it!
Has everyone packed hospital bags etc? Xx

[Thorz300]

Man WAG I really hope everything turns out ok! This is the last thing you need right now.

Fish, I'm so sorry you have to go through some sadness during such a joyful time. BIG hugs from me!

Mel1983 Glad to hear everything went ok with the bleed at 34 weeks! Bleeding is always scary! My induction is 3 weeks from today, and I do not have anything packed. I usually just pack the night before the induction. However, since I am already at a 3 and 80% effaced, I might pack a little earlier. I will be checked again on Friday and if I have progressed at all, I will for sure pack a little earlier, just to be on the safe side!
