Cinss, that picture is great! Haha.
Still no teddy over here. Labor stopped completely. Going to go walking today, see if I can get it started again. I think yesterday's contractions probably brought me to a 4 so it will go quick once it gets going.
Isn't it funny how we are in a hurry to have a lot of pain and zero sleep?! I really am scared to go late though as I am vbac and the rupture risk increases with baby size. Doc finally agreed my due date is probably right since its more ovulation based. He said he trusts that over the early ultrasounds.
Argh. My husband promotes gigs and most often has the bands/musician crash at our house. When it was just us I was okay with it but with our son, I've been increasingly uncomfortable about it. All these people are not questionable or suspect, and are all very nice and aren't wild/crazy. It's merely the fact that I don't like using my home as a crash pad anymore. Now with Willow on the way, I've been more vocal about it (especially today as there is a musician from Austria staying who he says he told me about but I don't remember so wasn't anticipating the visitor) and it really pisses my husband off, like I'm being unreasonable?! Just... arghhhhh! (He runs a music website.. reviews music, puts on gigs, etc... so I think he perceives it as an attack on his 'hobby' but when it comes to my private space, I feel I'm entitled to having a say?!)
Anyway, just venting...
Oh that would pi$$ me off too Gena. No way would I be letting people stay, especially once Willow arrives. You don't need to be dealing with that. I'd feel uncomfortable with strangers around me and my kids. I mean yeah I'm sure they're nice people but does your dh really know them?? I don't think you're being unreasonable at all.
Rosie I hope the walking helps hun :)
Like I told him, there is the odd one I've met many times who I'd be totally fine with but like... early into this pregnancy, the place he had set up for a band of six Italian musicians to stay at fell through at the last minute... so they ALL stayed at our tiny house... for two nights! They were all lovely and cooked for us, but it was chaos as our house is small... my son's room floor and living room floor was used as bed spaces so our son had to sleep with us... AND it was during my first trimester aka morning sickness. My son and I stayed trapped in my bedroom because I felt cramped and sick and it was a little stressful. Just... ehhhhh. Obviously something I'm going to have to keep talking to him about. I in no way want to get in the way of what he does but I've got to cross the line somewhere.
I agree!! You're a better woman than I am. I would've set my dh on fire in front of the band.
Hahah. The tough thing is these aren't bad people and I know it's cheaper for my hubbo to have them stay here then pay for their accommodation... but... priorities! We're a family household now... need my private spaccccccce!
You totally need and deserve your private space, your DH needs to understand that. If he has to have them stay then he should put you and Otis up in a fancy hotel lol
I have a similar situation coming up suregena... So i will have bubs in May, then DP's sister and her family are coming to stay for the Pink concert in July. She and her partner have 6 kids! so our 3 bedroom house will supposedly have to hold 12 people, thats if we dont have DP's 2 daughters staying too! I can't believe he offered to let them stay with us! I have never met them yet and as much as i would like to i just feel like i am going to have to go stay somewhere else while my house is over run by strangers :( with a 2 month old baby.
Oh gosh I feel for you both, I just couldnt imagine having to deal with a newborn and a house full of people. I have cleaning ocd when people come over and would want to be cleaning up all the time and it just wouldnt be possible with a newbie..
Any news from MP, Rosie TT and any others??
YNWA sooooooooo close :) one more sleep yay!!
Aw, cinss, that's so frustrating and stressful! Ugh! I feel for you! :(
Nothing here! :-( bugger.
Bugger :( xxQuote:

Had section with ds2,so I know what's coming,I will be getting tubes tied at same time as section so maybe it's that that makes me nervous?also anxious to see if the polyhydramnios I have has caused baby and problems!there has been talk of a little tube being passed down into baby's tummy to rule out a blockage,this needs to be done before 1st feed,if they find a blockage it's a little op for baby:.(nannas having the boys until we are home from hospital,so we are going to take them there this aft then me and Dh are going for a Sunday roast dinner,probably the last child free for a while:.)xQuote:

A roast dinner sounds delicous - a nice hearty meal before bubs comes along :) Enjoy the peace and quiet and try and sleep if you can!! Im excited for you :):):)
I'm starting to get those "what if the scan was wrong" feelings again. Then I dreamt last night I had a home birth and baby wasn't Willow and I felt confused!
Oh dear! I guess no one feels confident about what gender is revealed during their scans!
Im always worried about that too Gena lol Ive had my Ob check a few times and she says girl but I never leave feeling 100% about it. I guess we probably wont believe it until they are in our arms :)
Is anyone else feeling nauseas like first tri again. I am feeling awful! Add to that I am constipated and well I am really counting down the weeks/days/hours/minutes.. I hate that I am as I am trying so hard to enjoy every day of these last weeks but it is hard when Im feeling so gross!!
I'm also getting the same gross taste after drinking water again. It has to be ice cold or no go :( Anyway, just having a whinge, I am so grateful to be pregnant and I know so many would wish to be where I am now so my whinge is over..
I only had the 16 week private gender scan then 20 weeks for my NHS scan where they said gender... but then you read online about it being wrong for people! Yikes. I would hope at least my private scan would be right since I paid money and they had a good machine. :P
I'm feeling sick again too. And even though I take heartburn meds, I still have it when I'm sleeping.
Ynwa good luck sweetie. I hope all is well with your new little girl. Enjoy your kid free meal.
Rosie, send Teddy an eviction notice...we want to see him!!! hahaha
And to those who still worry about gender...you are definitely having girls!!! And we can't wait to see their pics. I am 37 weeks tomorrow. My oldest is turning 8 also. I will be a mom of 5 under the age of 8 in a few short weeks.
ThreeM does your youngest sleep good?
Good luck tomorrow ynwa! x
Thank you everyone for all the nice comments, Colton just fits perfectly into our family :) I just love this little man so much, and he's been such an easy baby so far! I was nervous about breast feeding since I had trouble with the first two, but he's such a good eater. He gained back to his birth weight by 4 days old, and I've been able to already stock up 50 oz extra in the freezer in the 10 days he's been here! However, I think my gallbladder is acting up, so I have to schedule an ultrasound tomorrow to check it. I've read pregnancy can cause problems with it, so I'm hoping it doesn't mess up how well breast feeding is going this time.
Congratulations Tiffany!! What a cutie! And good luck to ynwa! I can't wait to see some more babies!!!
All you ladies have been so amazing, and this has been a wonderful journey with y'all. I hope even after everyone has their babies, we can pop on here once in a while and see how everyone is doing! I honestly feel like I'm not done having babies, but it will be a while before we think of having another. I still would like a daughter someday, but something happened after this birth and I feel I just want another baby regardless. He's just so perfect, as are my older two!
Oh Mrshonyez so nice to hear from you! Colton sounds lovely and I am so happy he is feeding well. I hope the same for me this time too :) Maybe we can set up a "babies from March/April/May 13" group so we can stay in contact afterwards. Obviously it wont be as busy as this one as we wont have as much time on our hands but it would be nice to try and see our babies grow :)
Ynwa - wishing you all the best for today hun x
Yes. He sleeps better than all the other kids. About 11 hours a night. How are you doing?Quote:

I wonder if ynwa is holding bubs already?? I know she was going to be the first one in theatre but I guess you never really know how long you have to wait until you are there.. I cant believe this will be me in 33 days!!!! It feels like forever but I know it will be here in the blink of an eye. I have an Ob appt tomorrow so hoping I get a proposed time etc Anxious to hear what position the baby is in now too and hopefully get a measurement as I missed out on that last time.
Anyone else have appts coming up?
I have a midwife appointment at 34 weeks, where they'll likely retake my blood since my iron was a little low at 28 weeks.

Hiya no not yet,emergancy came in,they moved me to 4th on the list!no 2 went down 50 mins ago,x
Argh!! I guess thats what happens huh. Sucks still, hope you're not feeling too hungry :) x
Oh bugger ynwa! Soon enough though huh?
I'm afraid I will get kicked out of my Wednesday morning induction. We are having strange weather so I'm assuming it's putting everyone but me into labor. :p
I can't believe it's been 6 months!!!! And I can't believe you're still itchy. Hopefully your good luck with continue when his teeth start coming in. Are you planning on having any more children?Quote:

Holy cow! What a healthy little gal! Congrats all around. I hope everything went smooth as silk. Can't wait to see pics of the "little" lady :)
I just caught up on posts, we have been helping my folks move this week. It's been a bit hectic. I can't believe some of these little ones are stringing their mamas along so much! Come on babies!
Not much happening here. Appt/sono/NST in the morning to check on baby. Just precautionary since I have the blood issue. I am excited to get an estimate on size (despite the fact they can be very inaccurate, they have been on par for both of my boys). I want to start getting a bag packed and want to pick out a going home outfit (one son could have stood preemie and one needed 0-3 even though I squeezed him into a newborn anyway!). I am feeling really good, much better than a couple weeks ago, which is weird. But I'll take it!
Hope everyone is doing well as well!
