Keep us updated if it works...:)
38wks this weekend and she has to stay in for at least week till building works are finished. I wish she was born on due date that way I could have a week to prepare her stuff and relax a little.
Good luck WAG, let's hope your little one arrives on time for your bf.
Dtlatag she might still turn as others are saying.
Slouthern how are you coping with 4 and how is Julian behaving?
WantingPink I know your c-section is on Monday, good luck and keep us posted
Thorz what's the latest with you?
Salsa your hay plant is amazing, lucky you having family business. I guess you don't have to worry financially. And well done on being so organised, I am v jealous.
Fish our dates are close, it could happen any day now.
They wont discuss anything with me until i'm 36+ weeks (seeing the midwife on the 27th of aug), then ill get a scan to check position, offered a version and then if she still hasn't turned ill be booked in for a c-section to be done around 39 weeks. With DS1 being 2 weeks early and DS2 being the day after his due date i have a feeling this one will also be born early so thats making me panic a little.
Wag hope you have your little man soon so your friends can see him. Do you think you'll beat your induction date?
What kind of breech is the baby? She's not transverse right? You could try to deliver o twill not give you that option... I know when I was worried about a breech the thought of trying to deliver breech settled better than a section...
I don't know if I will go before lol I have felt like I'm starting labour for over a week now lol... I havnt been able to do any walking this week cause DH is working nights and I'm not going by myself... So this weekend I will be hill walking :)
Yes my C-section is on Monday!! I am very excited and of coarse nervous... I hate the whole C-section thing however, with DH schedule it ensures he will be there which is so important. The kids are very excited and talked about it while we walked to school this morning. 3 more days!!
Well some of you ladies are getting really close! I'm still forever away. It seems like our group will end up mostly being in aug. except of course me and a few others.
I'm so tired of being on bed rest! I'm ready to have my life and body and normal emotions back. 37 more days for me! It seems like an eternity! I would love for her to come early but I doubt she will. Next week I start taking EPO daily. Right now I've been taking it every two days for helping with my clots. I still haven't found any RLT anywhere. Next week ds1 starts 1st grade and I have my baby shower next Saturday. I'm also throwing a shower for a friend on thurs. so I'm trying to keep busy but it's hard to do that when I'm in bed everyday! I've started packing on the lbs too I'm up to 28 and still have 5 weeks to go. I miss going out with my husband I would love a date night but I don't think my hips could handle it!
Maybe we should do a round of bump pics since some of you ladies are about to have your Little ones.
Yay Wanting! I can't believe it's so close!!!
I read that Walmart has RLT in the states... I get mine at shoppers drug mart our pharmacy... Even some grocery stores have it here now
My Walmart doesn't have it, I'll just order it online I guess!
you dont have "health food" stores? we have stores that only carry natural health food products quite a few different ones
Well no bubba but off to the very extravagant wedding of a very good friend of mine, getting married at Oxford in one of the colleges no less!!! Boys going out with my mum so really looking forward to it.....baby tomorrow ;-) hopefully!
Southern picture update please we need oxytocin flowing to get these bubbas out and he is a doll!
Yeah shes frank breech with her feet by her face. I thought about a breech birth but after having a lot of stitches with the boys i could see a breech birth doing a lot of damage down there. DH has also made it clear that he would prefer me to have a c-section if she doesn't turn and he doesn't often say voice things like that so he must feel strongly about it.
Thorz i still have ages to go too, i'm not even 35 weeks yet. It will prob just be me and you at the end :)
Have a lovely time today fish, i love a good wedding.
I'll be there at the end too! I'm only 33 weeks. I honestly look term though and am already having to heave myself up from sitting/lying positions.
DLTAG, I had a sort of surprise section with DD3 in that my labour started but wasn't really progressing and we found she'd turned herself transverse. After two normal deliveries I felt a bit robbed of the endorphins etc of a normal delivery and I hated the recovery time afterwards but it was still amazing seeing her delivered. At the time I remembered thinking that even though a section wasn't what I wanted, DH and I agreed with our OB that it was probably better/safer for her so, in essence, agreeing to it was my first responsible and caring decision as her mum. I know that sounds cheesey but it helped at the time.
17 months on I have pretty much forgotten that she was born a different way to the others (or would have if my VBAC wasn't on my mind).
WantingPink- a baby on Monday! Sooo exciting.
Oh fish have a lovely time at the wedding!! They are always so much fun! Even heavily pregnant!! I have sick kids again!!!! I was hoping for a germ free house when this bubs arrives but can't see that happening somehow!
Fish you that gave me a good chuckle lol :)
Have a good time... I hope you go into labour... Usually things happen when you don't want them to lol
I agree it's safer to have a section if she's breech... I think in the end that would be my choice also as I'm very against risking the babies health...
10 more sleeps... To beat induction day... I don't know... Im gonna do some walking today
Oh Daltag that is proper crappy ;-( sounds line c section might be sensible choice keeping all crossed she moves
Lovely wedding and lovely lunch for my dads 80th today better not go into labour everyone else too pissed to drive me!!
Mumto3 thanks for that, it helps me to know if i do have to have a c-section ill be making the right decision, be it a very difficult one. I'm just worried about not bonding with her as well because the birth will be so different.
Fish busy busy :) Thats the best way tho, i hate not having anything to do, my mind starts thinking all sorts. Any signs of that little lady yet.
wanting pink, good luck tomorrow! I'm so excited for you! Yay for babies!
Good luck tommorrow wanting pink :) can't wait to see pics

Thank you everyone for the well wishes. I am very excited and nervous at the same time. Hope everything goes smoothly. I will definitely update with pictures when I get a chance!!
So I read about some more labour inducing wives tales... That I am trying now... Cinnimon tea... Boil cinnamon sticks and add som RLT too I'm making mine rigth now :) I also bought some fresh orageno and basil and will be trying that as a tea also :s not looking forward to that one...
Good luck Wanting Pink!
WAG, I'm impressed with how hard you're trying!
Ya alth I'm only willing to try things that are safe... Today I did a hill walk... Drank this tea crap and as much as I'm pissed at DH and very annoyed with him he will still be getting lucky....
I'll be thinking of you too WantingPink! Can't wait for good news from you :)
Fish hope your appt goes well. Will they decide about an induction?

Still no sign of baby turning but she still has a week until anything is done.
Your boys are so very handsome Southern!!! What a cute family of boys!
Southern what a cute family of boys you have! All very handsome! Good luck wanting pink!! Can't wait to hear how it all goes x x
Southern you have very handsome boys, lucky you!!!
Update on orageno tea lol...DON'T DO IT! It's foul my poor ds3 is walking around the house gagging and it tastes disgusting so I threw it out and have switched my plans to spaghetti sauce lol that's where oregano belongs lol...
Oh wag lol!
So my induction date is set 28th with sweep booked for 26th! Is someone else date 28th too it rings a bell xx
im the 27th but my birthday is the 28th.... im prettty sure someone is getting induced on the 28th too hmmm i dont remember who
Ah yes I remember you saying that... Fx you won't be 28th x
It seems like most of us in this group are being induced! How many do we have that are not going to be induced? My induction date is ions away.... Sept 23
I will have to wait for mother nature but I certainly don't want to go over my due date. Sofar it's convenient with all the buildings work.
i dont want to get induced... but i will be finding out on thurs if it will be possible just to break my water... which i think will be fine considering his head cant get any lower without coming out lol
i will be getting a streth and sweep thursday too :) hoping that does the trick :)
my mother is not happy about my induction date cause its the day her mom died only two years ago... it makes me sad too but there isnt much i can do about it
Ah wag there's nothing you can do about it fx your sweep on Thursday works then everyone's happy ;-)
I'm hopeful for my sweep on Monday....might try and book some reflexology too
