Must be a common thing for boys... mines kicking my cervix....
Good luck cinns...can't wait til your birth announcement :-)
Cinns just popped in here to see how things are with you?!? Your countdown begins.. Deff keep us all informed and I hope you get your calm labour you've been wanting. Eeeeeee so excited for you.. I remember 2 years today I was waiting for my lil pumpkin daughter to be born she was a May baby too!
Pearl and mini hope your pregnancy is well and those lil Mr's are behaving themselves!
Well ladies just after asking you about breach babies on wed my little man turned Wednesday night. I had an appointment yesterday evening and my doc said the head was just inside the pelvic brim.
Do 2nd babies stay engaged or can they come back out again ?
You can try and help him stay low so he will stay vertex... Do lots of squats, walk stairs, etc. Also, you can walk on two different levels, so walking along a street with one foot on the sidewalk and one of the road. Looks funny but encourages baby to stay deep in the pelvis :)
My son Cyrus arrived today 6 pound 10. Only 5 hours labor, i thought it would be longer and didnt make it to hospital. He came on the floor at home the ambulance got there just before he popped out. They took us to hospital where i delivered the placenta and now we are about to go back home :)

Oh my goodness Cinss. Congratulations to you and your family. He is so cute. I would reach into that pic for a cuddle if I could. Delighted that all went well and he didn't keep you waiting
He is gorgeous Cinss congratulations, it must be a boy thing, West was 2 1/2 hours of labor I didn't expect that so quick
I just logged in to look around ! Cinss congrats what a sweet baby boy!!:bluecheer::celebrate:
Pearl - my little guy was a stubborn one and didn't turn till 36wks. As soon as I had u/s confirmation he was finally head down I walked, a lot. My midwife encouraged all the squats and walking I could do. Good news is once he engages it's very unlikely he'll be able to wiggle his way back out and make more trouble. Gl!
Cinss - congrats Hun! He's gorgeous!!
Wow...what a beautiful little man. Congratulations!
Cinns what a little darling.. Well done, wonderful news I guess the hypnobirthing method must of assisted in some way after all.. I bet his sister must be in love with her little brother! Congratulations to you and family x
Just an update from me. Had a scan yesterday to check baby's kidneys. The fluid has risen so I will need to have another scan in 5 weeks and a chat to the renal specialist. They also came across low amniotic fluid so I had a few obstetricians in asking me all sorts of questions. They think I may have a leak, which might explain the excess moisture I have down stairs! I will have another scan in about 12 days to monitor levels. Might explain why baby is still in the same position as he was all those weeks back and why every movement he makes is getting quite painful. I'm just praying that everything turns out OK and he is healthy. I'm still working two afternoons a week and I'm buggered but I may have to think about slowing down, pending the next scan.
Hope you are all well x
Oh mini. I hope all goes well for you. It is a very worrying time when even the smallest thing goes wrong
Is there anything you can do to help it mini?? 5 weeks seems long but hopefully it will fly by and your little man gets the all clear at his next scan xx
Thanks girls. I'm not too sure yet, I guess we have to see what the fluid levels are like at the next scan in 12 days. Then I'm sure they will explain it all. I've been reading up a bit on it... Don't want to do.too much googling... But ill increase my fluid intake and see if that helps. All I want is a healthy baby so I'll do whatever I need to. I'll keep you updated though.
mini=hope everything will be ok and baby is all healthy and safe. Of course we all would be worried because that's what we do if there is some problems , right? I think try to drink a lot and take it easy.
Thinking of you minimatron. My sil had surgery while pregnant which caused leaking of amniotic fluid and it apparently healed itself and stopped.
Lol... I can drink loads of water but taking it easy... I'm not good at it. I'll try though. I have a mid appointment tomorrow then the next scan is Wednesday week. Until then, I just remain positive and not google. Hoping it goes quickly and we can get some answers.
Ladies I posted some pics of my baby here if you like to see. Just plz don't quote because I always take them off after a couple days...thanks !
Thanks ladies! :HH: How is your babies? post some pics!!
Hey all! Mind if I barge in and chat with you all? :bigsmile:

DD loves her little brother :)
Oh my goodness... I thought she had two dolls. He's so tiny. She looks so happy. How's it all going?
Its going really well :) I just cant get enough newborn snuggles. DD acts up a little but that was expected. She likes looking after her doll like i look after baby, she even brest feeds her hehe its funny and cute. DS is a gem feeding well and now sleeping 6 hours at night which is great. Cant believe he is 2 weeks old already.
How are you doing mini? Is there still leaking?
That pic is so cute Cinss.
I am just getting back to some sort of normality at the moment. My DD was called in on a cancellation for her hip operation to correct her hip developmental dysphasia. And just when we had booked her into hospital I got the news that my Granny died. I have DD back home now and left work early so I am effectively on maternity leave now with the exception of going in for a hand over to my cover
DD is doing OK she isn't able to walk at the min so I am trying to keep her entertained but she keeps asking to go to the playground. But she should start being mobile again in about 2 weeks or less. She is so good, not really complaining at all.
Hi lola how do you do?
cinss-what a cute pic! My little girl did those things to at first.lol
AHHHH! Cinss!! I can't believe I missed it. CONGRATS!!!!!!!!! He looks perfect!
