Wag fab news! Ah the power of the buggy (and snax ;-) what will we do when they won't fit any more?!?
Lol I know! Sometimes I still stick ds2 who is seven in the stroller when I really need to get something done and no one to watch him... He wanders and when I say wander he runs out of sight within a second lol and if I say " Hayden wait for mommy please" he states screaming stop it dont hit! Lmao he's repeating what we tell him everyday cause he always hits... But you should see the looks we get...and I'm not the nicest person so I've told my fair share to F off lol... I got stopped in a store by the manager a couple weeks ago chasing him carrying ds3 up escalators I was not in the mood to be questioned lmao
wag just noticed we have the same due date!
thou you'll be before me ;-S
Lol that's cause mine got changed to the 5th :) i used to be the same as southern
I'm praying to go preferably at night when kids are sleeping before my induction lol I have already started my tea 1 cup a day and will start doing 2 at 35 weeks and then 37 I will start primrose I don't want to start that before term just in case cause I'm usually quite dilated before term and don't want this to be pre term
I've got scan on Monday stating the raspberry leaf tea after that if all looks normal then planning to start the evening primrose at week 36......August please ;/)
How do you take primrose if you don't mind me asking? I also want this baby to come end of August and will start raspberry leaf tea in a couple of wks.
Ugh well this day just keeps getting worse!! I just fell down a full flight of stairs and have a stabbing pain in my side. I can't walk on my own at all and after the fall I was all wet. I'm not sure if I peed myself or if it was fluids so DH is taking the DS1 and DS2 over to a friends house to watch the fireworks and my mom is staying home with DS3 because he is already in bed. After DH drops the boys off at the friends house, he is taking me straight in to the hospital. I hurt really really bad, but I still have ABSOLUTELY no desire to go to the hospital! DH insists and since he is a doctor, I think I should listen to him (even thought he isnt an OB) but combined with the bleeding from last night, it probably is best to get checked out! I feel that she is ok, because I can still feel her moving, but I don't want to take chances with my baby girl, I just HATE going into the hospital!
I'm gonna take my primrose vaginally at night and wear a liner but you can take it orally I just think logically and if its for softening the cervix... Putting it in there will work better right?
Thorz I really hope everything Is okay keep us updated
Throz hope it's a fuss over nothing think its a good call to head in thou xxx
Wag, salsa yes I think in v is the recommendation I bought capsules as so much cheaper than the oil so planning orally from 34 wks and in v too from 36 lol no science ;-)
Thanks WAG and fish. I'll give it a go too! Thorz you poor thing!!! Please keep us informed and sending you healing thoughts!!
It's been ages since I've posted but I've been reading daily - DH has been away for about 5 days and it's school holidays so it's been crazy busy keeping them all fed, watered and entertained. I've still got AGES to go - 13 ish weeks - but i'm really feeling it now at the end of the day with achey legs and hips. I've put on loads of weight too, to be honest, it does make me wonder where the pregnancy recommendations re weight gain come from. So many women who were in a healthy weight range at conception seem to gain more than the "suggested" 9 -15 kg (or whatever it is); it makes me wonder whether my weight gain is actually normal for me. I do eat more when I'm pregnant but not excessively and it's mainly good food.
I'm sorry for those who are having a worrying time. Southern, it must be so hard not knowing your baby's cardiac status exactly although you're doing a fantastic job of keeping him in there for now. Thorz, I hope everything's OK.
I have no idea based on where I feel kicks etc as to whether this baby is still breech but I really hope not. I don't have another appointment until 29-30 weeks, at 25 weeks he was big ish but I have small/average sized babies so I doubt that will last! People are still commenting that this baby must be due "soon" though and I do look pretty big but I think that's just crap abdominal muscles.
Hope everyone is doing well and that no babies come this month.
Im pretty sure you insert the capsuls... They look basically like vitamin E right?
Hey good to hear from you mum 23 still have two weeks till the hols here thank goodness ;-)
Thorz any news?
Wag yeah I have capsules wasn't sure if I should split them and massage oil in? Not sure about the coating left in?!?
Lol you lot are now my choice for would like to meet ;-s
Okay wag people seem to be suggesting two a day orally and one in v at night on netmums apparently gelatine will dissolve or give the midwife a laugh I guess!
Lol the only thing that makes me not want to take it orally is people were saying well some people that it makes them sick and such... I can't handle anymore sickness lol I've had enough of that .... But maybe I will start orally at 36 then
Mum- good to hear from you and thanks for the encouraging words :)
Thorz- still thinking of you too. I assume since you haven't updated that they may have kept you overnight. Hope you and baby Macie are doing ok!
Thorz I know how you feel not wanting to go to the hospital but I am glad you did. I really hope everything is okay. Please update us soon!!
Ok back on full bed rest. Baby was a little erratic so they are keeping me 24 hours for observation, she has seemed to calm down now so I think I can leave tonight. Bleeding is from and inflamed and irritated cervix and not the placenta so that's good news! I feel like a train wreck my whole body is sore! I hate being here but I guess it's good because it has made me realize I don't want to have the baby here and I need to set up a tour at the hospital down the road. My hip flat out does not work at the moment :( it's gonna be a rough 12 weeks!
I'm so glad everything seems to be ok Thorz! Sorry about the full bed rest but sounds like it's what is best for now. Take it easy and please no more falls!
That's good, Thorz. Take it easy. I'm impressed by your mum, BTW. There's no way my mother could manage my three for three months.
Thorz so pleased to hear baby okay so sorry you have all these troubles ;-(
I'm with mum 23 my mum can manage my two for a morning ;-)
Thorz great to hear!! Rest up and just remember that it's such a short time in the big picture. And you have to do what right to look after yourself and baby Macie x x
Happy the baby is doing well! Bed rest sucks! But you will get through it... Download some good series to watch get some good books..l get lots of Disney movies to watch with the boys
Bump dropped! Mine has defiantly dropped all ready and I have constant boarder line diaoriaha does this mean anything?!?!
Thorz try n stock up sleep hun you'll need it ;-)
Mine dropped too and I feel more pressure on cervix but nothing alarming. DS2 dropped at 32 wks but went up again later.
Thorz if you not sure if your leak is urine or amniotic fluid its worth checking PH as they have completely diffident acidity.
Thorz glad to hear little macie is ok but hope you feel better soon, big hugs x
Nah Ezra and Hayden both dropped very very early and thy were born at 41 and 39 weeks... My bump has always been "low" with this baby. It his head is def not engaged... After your first baby they can bounce in and out of the pubic bone...
Ah boo 39 wks would do thou ;-)
Off to a hen do wine lasting ;-s really not feeling up for it...........
We are getting close to the delivery stage and has everyone decided on names?
Yes girlsway. We've had Darcey Lyn picked out for years now. Can't believe I'll finally get to use it! Darcey after my fav ballerina Darcey Bussell. And Lyn is both DH and my mothers names. How about you?? I'm 31 wks today.... So over it and just hope these next several wks fly by. I'm sure they will.... I also hope to be induced 38/39 weeks as my last baby was nearly 10lb. So I might only have 7.5wks to go!!
Wow you ladies seem to be so far ahead of me. I'm only 28 weeks! Our little one will be Macie Anne. I'm torn because I want to have this baby ASAP but I don't want to wish my summer away, I hate winter time. But then again I'm not getting to enjoy my summer anyway because of bed rest. I've fallen down 3 times since my plunge down the stairs on Thursday. I'm going to my sports medicine dr this week to see if my hip can be put back into the socket, because obviously with all the falling and pain its gotta be out completely.
Just a quick update. I am in the hospital have been contracting all afternoon. They have me on magnesium but no luck still contracting every 2 min. At last check a few hrs ago i was 1cm dilated but 90 percent effaced. Have my epi and theyre about to stop thw mag and just let me labor as its doing no good. Baby will probably be here by morning. Will update. Please pray he is healthy.
Oh my gosh southern keep us updated praying all goes smoothly and he's okay xxx
Good luck Southern. Hope it all goes smoothly and he is born vigorous and healthy.
I'm only 28 weeks too Thorz (and maybe only 27plus cos I didn't ovulate till day 18). I do feel for you having to be on bed rest, getting out and about takes my mind off the miseries of the third trimester.
We've got a boy name short list but nothing we both really like. Our three previous boy names we've sort of grown out of.
My thoughts and prayers are with you Southern. Your baby is a good gestation, I am sure if he is to make an entrance now, he will be fine. GL
Thinking of you and your little man southern. Hope everything goes well for you and you will be in my thoughts. Please try and keep us updated if you get the chance xx
