UK SMOG Wannabes May

[maybebabythree]

Auroara dh loves aerosmith. We saw then the night before my a level maths exam - amazingly I failed it! I remember him asking for don't want to miss a thing at our wedding. Our song is love moves in misterious ways by god knows who. Mainly because when I met dh at 16 I thought he was a looked but far to loud and had to be the centre of attention and the comedian. We could not be more oppersite in every aspect. 22 years later and it still seems weird we are paired up.

Babymad love your birth story. I only ever hear the beep of heart monitors when I am in labour! I did have adeles make you feel my love and anni Lennox universal child on a almost content loop with some dance music thrown in. I was in cycle of feeling hyped up then crying!

I can't sing twinkle twinkle little star without crying as I sang it to ds1 when he was born. Feeling overwhelmed and missing my dad.

Sunset - dr said it looks like blood pressure tablets for life for me :-/ I have to keep going back every month but it's 79/139 so the top is too high :-/ weird as normally the bottom is too high.

Taking dave into work tomorrow. My team of five men and one women will love that! I can't see the blokes asking for cuddles! Might be a short visit!

Zanacal ds1 was back to back and it hurt lots but if she stays back to back just try to keep moving in labour until you find a position that works for you. I was so adamant I would not labour on my back with dave, but after a hour and a half I moved to my back as the midwife suggested and hey presto he moved down in a few pushes. But when your in established labour it's the last thing you want to do. Ds1 and 2 was both back on my side and those labours was great. Didn't seem to matter.

Hey ladies! I haven't been over here in ages. I am sorry some days I don't come on at all trying to have a very relaxed attitude this month. Hope everyone over here is doing well. I know Zanacal is having the baby anyday!

Ingelwood~ How are the twins!! Must be delightful. I am praying I get lucky enough to have twins. I'd be so thrilled.

In March I got a BFP and it was a chemical. I decided to skip April because I really knew I was pregnant and ate more, snacked more, and would have regretted trying in April after months and months of dieting. I learned a HUGE lesson to not mess with the diet in the 2WW. SO here we go May!

[zanacal]

maybe - all 3 of my boys were back to back so I have plenty of experience there lol! I've been expecting the same again (and I know I can handle it - I ony had gas an air with the last two and did fine but they were by no means easy labours!) but this baby isn't back to back at the moment, she's in the perfect position so far

HopeandDream - {hugs} and all the best for May x

[Inglewood]

Hi all, been hectic here since Dh went back to work. Girls feed every 3hrs, but take 1hr each to feed, so they get fed around 11pm/2am/5am.... and so on and dh starts work at 0630 for 8wks so I can't ask him to help overnight. I get up, feed 1, then the other then I get max 1hr sleep after eacg feed before it all start again. Starting to take it's toll on me already and it's only night 6 myself tonight, but only getting 3-4hrs broken sleep a night.. Think DD2 has colic too, so started infacol yest to see. I've been stupid and not been eating properly, so have been eating biscuits and rubbish (esp overnight, being up 2-3hrs at a time) and put on about 5/6lbs... silly me! Luckily start post-natal shape-up classes on tuesdays for 6wks to help my aching back and leftover SPD pain!! lol Also have an internal infection so feeling a bit crap!

On the plus DD2 (being breech) had a hip scan today and 1 hip is perfect, the other 'immature' as they call it and will be re-scanned, but they are not concered as they say it was because she was breech and prem. They are now DD1 7lbs 4oz and DD2 7lbs 7oz and were 6wks old on tues!! going in so fast.

Maybe, got my tax credit letter today, predicted £186 a mth....OMG!! after getting nowt! Thanks for ur link!!

Many of you don't have long till babies are here and are in my thoughts each day and for those TTC and not, hope ur all well too! See someone else on here due fraternal twins (swayed girl) ....maybe it's the girl sway/diet??? lol I heard alot of dairy can do it??? not sure about that tho.

Better go feeding time again! xx

[zanacal]

Blimey Inglewood, no wonder you're knackered! There are a couple of ladies on here who swayed girl and are expecting twins but they were both on the LE diet so not consuming much dairy - I think they were both on Clomid though so that's perhaps the most likely explanation for them! I can't believe your girls are 6 weeks old already

[indigoviolet]

Inglewood- you are a hero keeping that up night after night, no wonder you are tired, hopefully they will start spacing their feeds out a bit more soon, especially at night. Hope your infection clears up too, hang in there hon.

Hello to everyone else, had a migraine type headache from finishing work yesterday to now so am pretty tired and off to bed soon. Dh away on a trip, I'm so jealous! I'd love a few days where I didn't have to think of anything else apart from myself! I bet we could all do with a bit of that.

Hope you are all having nice weekends, catch up tomorrow

[Sunset]

Hello hello, how's everyone?

Inglewood ~ wow, no wonder you are tired.. at least the sleepless nights won't last forever. I had my first "good night" last night since dd was born.. she only woke once for a feed which has never happened before. she's usually up twice during the night and comes into our bed about 4am, but last night she woke up for a feed at 3am and then slept in her moses basket until 6am. amazing!

maybebaby ~ oh no, let's hope that's not the case. seems you bloodpressure isn't too bad though?

zanacal ~ 39 weeks any day now

Inglewood ~ you have just entered the third trimester havent you? I can't remember when it starts.. is it 27 weeks? how does it feel to be on the home stretch? soon you'll get to hold your beautiful baby

charlieispy ~ oh no, what a bugger! fx the parts arrive sooner than expected. you are not alone though, my best friends washing machine broke last week as well so she's in the same boat as you

HopeandDream ~ sorry to hear about the chemical good luck this month!! when is your attempt? hows it going with the diet?

GeCon ~ i'm so sorry to hear you won't be ttc after all hope you pop in for an update and a chat from time to time though

wishing4pink ~ you havent posted in a while hun, thinking of you and hoping the diet is going ok!

babymad ~ hope you're ok!

littlemisswilko ~ how are you and bump doing. we'll have to arrange that meet up when the weather gets better

deaks ~ hope you're ok!

hello to everyone else! hope you're all ok! afm, busy as usual.. it's my ds1's birthday tomorrow so we're having a birthday party tomorrow morning. wish you all lived closer, would have invited you all what a big perfect "boy party" it would have been with all our wonderful boys

[Babymad]
