September Babies Continued

Dltag I would suggest you continue the RLT cause it really helps with the after pains which I'm sure you get with c sections as well andit also helps with milk supply...
Turn baby turn! Are you spending lots of time on your hands and knees? I'm sure you Are...

Wanting pink I have been patiently waiting for an update ;) hope all is good

I liked my induction with ds3 cause it was planned... Altho it made memory nervous cause I knew when the pain was coming lol..

Here we get the choice at the beginning of pregnancy if we want an ob or a midwife... I'm quite anti midwife myself... But drs here do stretch and sweeps :)

Southern, it's not the same and I'm not minimising your experiences but each pregnancy I've been terrified of extreme prematurity. Purely because of my experiences at work. I start to relax a bit now (34 weeks).

I'm hoping not to be induced but there are a few things going against it. The main one is the size of the baby, my biggest before now was only 3.4 kg and my ob doesn't want my VBAC to be some post dates whopper baby - based on her measurements which have spot on previously he was about 5 pounds at 32 weeks, although she said they often grow in spurts. My blood pressure is always a bit labile from now as well - it's never turned into anything and is prob just the stress of having it taken but hopefully that'll hold as well and not turn into PET or anything (which it never has before).

For all I say I like being preggers I'm not really very good at relaxing during it!

Just want to add that an induction would have huge advantages in terms of sorting out the others and not some crazy scramble in the middle of the night.

Maybe it's lack of sleep but I'm not sure I understand :worry:

I was meaning to say that I wish I could go term and know when my baby will come as many of you do instead of spending my whole 3rd trimester worried about going into labor at any moment.

Sorry if I misunderstood your post or if mine wasn't clear....:hide:

I think it's me not being clear! Just trying to say I'm always worried my third trimester as well, but I know it's irrational and that just cos I've worked with very prem babies doesn't mean I'll have one.

And that to someone like you who has actually had a prem baby and all of the drama that goes with it women like me complaining about their irrational concerns are probably irritating.

Just back from appt and all well. BP ok for now and baby is not looking quite so enormous, which is good. No reviews for 2 weeks as long as I check my bp at work. Yay!

OMG this baby of mine never stops moving lol! It's 2am here and I can't sleep because she won't stop wiggling around! Lol

Ha ha dh work phone went off at 2 am night and bubba nearly jumped out ;-) not quiet nearly enough though!

Agh so today ds2 decides he's not wearing nappies anymore! Help!

I've taken your advice and gone back to the RLT, i guess its just me being a little hormonal lol

Baby was moving around loads last night and i thought she was turning but shes back in the same position this morning, kept me awake most of the night so i'm a little on the grumpy side this morning

I've been doing all sorts too, pelvic tilts, on all fours, bouncing on ball, cold things on top of bump and warm on the bottom but she only ever seem to go halfway round.

Wanting really looking forward to your update, hope you have your little girl in your arms now :)

Fish i had same thing happen yesterday, a balloon popped while we were out and poor baby jumped, i felt everything move lol

Ah daltag maybe there's a reason she's that way up my friends daughter had her feet so far under my friends ribs they struggled to get her out with c section sometimes we have to be thankful for the drs I guess ;-s
