Welcome and yay for someone to add to the Homebirth list. It was looking poorly after the September rush. And double yay for number 5, I'm not on my own so glad you could find a MW to support you xx
Afm: not enjoying being due later in thè month lol! Just had our first September birth and ladybug is still MIA, I'm getting a bit ready to meet this little one. Trying to remain calm and even minded about waiting longer but knowing one of my 4 was already here and the other 3 were born within the next week is making me impatient. What if I go to term? The pregnancy has been so different what if the delivery is so different?? Ahhhhhhhhh and I don't have the pool yet (the MW forgot it Monday) so I don't really want the baby tonight.... Do I? Lol
Welcome Ilithyia! Number 5 - wow how lovely!!! Congratulations I hope your birth is everything you need and want it to be xxxx
Was it a week ago I posted saying I was feeling great? Today I'm completely over it lol...baby is fully engaged and I'm sore and tired and breastfeeding DS is torturous and I JUST WANT TO MEET THIS BABY!
Tegam - maybe you'll beat me to it!!

Lady bug, I hope your having a baby, of holding one lovely. Many blessings to you!
Afm- ladies I am really struggling. Eddie is a reflux baby I think. He is worse after feeds, pulls off and screams. Often wakes up 10-20 mins after I lay him down to sleep, to scream. Poor little lamb... It is breaking my heart and breaking my mind to watch him. I am so tired. Beyond tired. We don't have anyone really to help or come hold the baby whilst I get a sleep. My sister is nearby, but she is so busy herself that I don't feel I can ask her and my dad and step mum are really stressed. Anyway. I am trying to give a small bit of water before a feed to see if that makes a difference. He seemed marginally better tonight. Only needed to be resettled once. Anyway, I just want a bit of sympathy .
Sara - nice to see you here honey. Fx for a beautiful homebirth for you this time. Xx.
Hi ladies, she's here. Born on Tuesday on her due date, birth was amazing. All perfect but we have since transferred to special care as she was having some breathing issues, they have since cleared on their own and I'm hoping we get to go back home today. She is just glorious!! She was 8pd 4. And is feeding well. I'll catch up with everything at some point. Thanks for all your thoughts xxx
Congratulations Ilithyia. Wishing you a blissful pregnancy and birth xx
And congratulations Lady bug!! Wonderful to hear the birth was amazing. I'm so sorry your little one hasn't been well though and you had to transfer. I hope you're all snuggled home soon.
Sounds like tough times Bella. I know you've been trying so hard with elimination diets and everything so it must be so hard to still be getting so little rest.
Congrats ladybug on your little girl! So sorry she gave you a scare. Hope you're home v soon. What did you call her? Looking forward to hearing about your amazing birth.
Congrats Sara, and so pleased you're preparing for a HB. January is a great month to have a baby!
Bella - hugs. I have no advice, but this too shall pass. Please do ask you sister and Dad and stepmom, even though you think they're busy. They would probably want you to!
Afm, we are chugging along. DD3 is divine, I swear it's her fault I started ovulating before any of the others! I'm still quite keen for another, but not in a hurry. DP is studying hard and I have never been so busy. I don't think I sit down until 7.30pm every day and some nights I'm finishing work. :/ We have DD3's christening in a few weeks and I'm so looking forward to it, despite the extra work it will bring!
We are back home, got home last night thank goodness. I was starting to go crazy in there. I have no idea how those mumma's who's babies need to be in special care for long times cope, not sure I could. Anyways she is perfectly fine and we are just starting to get settled into feeding.
So happy for you to be home ladybug. At some stage we need stats and story but you can be off the hook for a little longer.
My poor MW just text, she ha had three mammoth days with another client and needs to go to bed but she wanted to check I was ok first poor women. This baby isn't going anywhere
Hi girls, I didn't know where to share how excited I am. I just had the best nights sleep in so many months, that it doesn't matter that I was awake before 6am, cos I actually got to sleep for more than a 20min block overnight! I eliminated eggs and I am not sure if it was that, or doing lots of other things like elevating his bed, but I have just had soooo much sleep comparatively, that I feel amazing! Yay for me, that is all! Lol!
