How ru and little everly going RG? Waiting for your news !!!! [emoji3531]
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Hey ladies! Baby Everly arrived at 1201 pm today after a quick and easy labor. I got an epidural an hr after they broke my water and then stalled at a 4/5 for an hr. Then suddenly, within the next hr, I was fully effaced and dilated and with 3 or 4 pushes she was out! It was so fast that I barely was awake during the delivery (I had fallen asleep during that hr right before delivery)! I was so shocked when she came so fast! She was 7 lbs 8 oz and 21 inches long! Just 5.5 hrs of induced labor! I've tried to Post this 2x already but it kept making an error when I clicked the button to Post. Here is a pic for you all!Attachment 41764

Congratulations RG!! Everly is beautiful :heart: so glad you had such a great delivery :) hope your feeling good today and enjoying your baby girl xx
Yeah. Congratulations RG. I am so happy for you and your family. What a great labor story too. I normally hear bad things with induction so this is nice to hear. Hope you are doing well and get home soon. Welcome beautiful baby girl!

How are you today? If you have to be induced, when will they do that? Hope all goes well for you either way! I'm excited to see your sweet baby 😊Quote:

I just nurse her on one side burp her and check her diaper, then put her back on the same side. That way she gets the fatty milk (hind milk) and keeps her full longer. And she lets me swaddle her whereas my boys never wanted swaddled. My dh also took off this last week and has been taking care of the boys, cleaning, and cooking...plus his chores outside (we have a farm). I don't know what I'd do without him and don't look forward to him going back Monday! Everly is a very mellow baby (so far)! So much so that dh has been worrying something is wrong lol. I'm hoping she stays so content!
Your hubby sounds brilliant.
So happy you got your baby girl
glad your both doing good RG :) your husband sounds amazing!!
RG that sounds like a fantastic start! I’m so glad Everly is very relaxed and that she’s feeding well . Ur husband sounds amazing too, it’s good to have the support for the first couple weeks. Im sure it’s daunting to think of what everything is going to be like once he does go back to work but I’m sure it will all be ok.
I have an appt on Wednesday to discuss induction if I don’t end up spontaneously going into labor, but they won’t do it before 41 weeks which is Friday. I’m getting super nervous but fingers crossed Bub makes his appearance before then ....

Here r some pics for you all! She is still a sweet baby, very mellow. Even sleeping 4 hrs at night...great for sleep but hard on my boobs! Lol. Today is the 1st day with my dh bavk at work. It's been a good day so far, surprisingly. I definitely miss him tho, he was so sweet and helpful. More so than he has ever been after I had a baby. I'm wondering if he's pampering me bc of her? Lol he's already very protective over her and always says how fragile she is. He was never so worried over the boys. Almost like he's expected them to be tough from day one lol. It's so very cute to see.
Viola, hope baby girl gets in gear soon and comes on her own. If you have a pump, try pumping both sides for a couple mins. That can help jump start contractions �� good luck either way!
She is just so pretty and I love her bows
Hi everyone! Just wanted to update on my birth that happened Wednesday 24th July ! I was 40+5 and my obs gave me a stretch and sweep to see if they could help things move along, but I was already sitting at 3 Cm. Contractions started at 630, my mom was here to keep the girls by 7. Got to hospital 710 and my baby boy was born at 950. The last bit was horrible, the ring of fire and the burning is so bad. I just had gas no meds or epidural, but at 9 Cm right when my waters broke I was begging for epidural but it was too late. Baby came about 4 contractions after my waters broke. I feel so bad for DH and my midwife as I was crying and saying I was going to die... but obviously I didn’t and when baby came out I actually pulled him out myself and took him onto my chest before they could cut his cord. Baby was 3.4 Kg at birth. I had a second degree tear that seems to have been stitched really well as I’m not in any pain at the moment. We were sent home within 12 hours. Now for picking a name and having all the visitors over . Wish us luck! Baby’s sisters love him to bits as well. They want to name him flower-wower or Thomas lol.

thank you guys for sharing your gorgeous little ones with us! :heart:
Viola! So glad you and baby BOY are doing well! HE looks so precious! And man, I know that ring of fire is horrendous! With my ds1 my epidural didn't work and I felt it too. Any names yet?
Congratulations on your little boy viola :heart: he's gorgeous!! hope you are both doing ok and enjoying being home :)
Thanks girls! It’s been a whirl these last few days! We have named baby Sami. He’s doted on by DD1 and DH, DD2 just gives him kisses and goes off to do her own thing lol. I’ve forgotten how painful breastfeeding is the first few days [emoji37]. DH has been the most helpful he’s ever been after all of our kids births too so I’ve just been focusing on feeding and recovering and still playing with the girls.
How’s everyone else going? Who is due next?

37w5d and I am a miserable wreck. My stomach is so tight my skin hurts and the weight is just piling on even if a barely eat. My pinched nerve in hip/leg makes it nearly impossible to walk which means I am getting very little done these days which is the most frustrating part because I hate just sitting around. I want to be up and cleaning and nesting. I haven’t even packed my hospital bag yet. Doc said he might strip my membrane next week to help get things going. He will not let me go past due date since I am older which makes me high risk.
Prayers accepted that this kid comes out this week because mama is miserable. I know it will change once she is here, but right now I am not excited for a baby at all- I just want to be out of pain and not pregnant.

Oh girliecat, I am so sorry ur having such a rough time . The third trimester is the worst, the waiting and anxiety and just sick of being pregnant and big. Try having some warm baths and pamper urself with a nice massage to help? It’s so close now, and once ur baby is here it will make it so worth it. Sending hugs ur way. I hope stripping your membranes works for you, for both DD2 and DS it worked within 24 hours for me. Fingers crossed for you!

Thanks for all the well wishes girls

I can’t wait for all the rest of the babies to start coming!
RG send a snap of everly too so we can see her growing !

Girliecat, I agree, pamper yourself! Nerve pain is so annoying! And painful! Hope stripping the membranes work for you!

Who is next?
4 more weeks for me
Hi everyone
I sort of loiter and pop in and out. I’ve been following the thread as I’m due September. I’m 33 weeks now so 7 weeks officially to go, but my csection is booked for 37 weeks (so 4 weeks time)
It’s our 4th and final. Can’t wait to be done in all honesty. So uncomfortable. Think it’s running around after 3 others in hot summer holidays [emoji19]
So nice to see the babies arriving. They’re all gorgeous!!! Congratulations guys - amazing news to all xxx

I’m having mine in 4 weeks too. When’s your due date? [emoji3526]Quote:

I am 39 weeks and last checked was 4cm but no contractions to get this party started. I am getting very impatient and feel defective that I can be so dilated but not go into actual labor. I only have a few more days because doc won’t let me go past due date, he will schedule induction this week if baby doesn’t come on her own. Come on baby girl- mama is ready to not be pregnant anymore.
Side note-I am terrified about labor. Hoping to go all natural again and knowing the pain this time is worse than the unknown the first time.
