Yay!! We're ready for you now baby 2IC!! :D
I really did, it was this brandy snaps basket with three types of ice cream on a bed of raspberry jouse (sp?)..... Very posh lunch out for our wedding ann. and here i am having the worst BH and thinking of your placenta!:
:rofl:
omg, glad I could help
:clap: :clap: I think im scared for life! :clap: :clap::
I had a thickshake today and thought of you Tegam :D
Ok, I have one outstanding matter and that is the just-in-case-hospital bag. What do i put in it? I've got a change of clothes for me and bub adn maternity pads...
thanks Marcellus!
Toilet bag, i love to have a shower after bubs.
I packed an "after birth/transfer bag"... but forgot to pack any toiletries in it so good thing we didn't transfer :lol:
I had:
- change of clothes for me
- pyjamas for me
- black undies
- pads
- breastfeeding naturally book
- blissful herbs (peri-natal kit & breastfeeding tea)
- a few changes of clothes for baby
- baby hats on top for straight after birth
- cloth nappies
cloth nappies and the hats - totally forgot but yes i take 4 hats, two pink and two blue for straight after the birth. They get wet quickly so you need a change and it stops the MW wrapping the baby with its head in which it makes it next to imporrible to breast feed correctly!
gosh all i had was a change of clothes for me and bub, some pads and a bunch of black knickers. i figured that everything else could wait as if i was to transfer it would be an emergency anyway and i wouldnt need much more than that for the immediate. but i love to fly by the seat of my pants bahahahaha!
I guess that's why I called mine an "after birth" bag as I packed the things I wanted rather than really planning for a transfer (hence the lack of toiletries I think :lol:). I found it really handy too because people would ask where these things were, or I would ask for them, and I could say it was all in that bag so it was easily found.
Toiletries! Did not think of that
I did thiink of hats, but have no idea where i've put them... will have another look in the pile after DS is awake.
ta ladies
:)
I love those new born cuddles but i also love that shower after!!!
oh, yeah
I found hats! (and a whole bunch of booties that were also never used... nawwwww)
And have toiletries and nappies, so think that'll do.
Just wanted to burst in and say :hooray: YAYYY, I'm having my scan and meeting my midwife on Friday!!!
:happyforyou: PZ!!!!
woohooo PunkyZ!!! that is awesome stuff! *mwah* reading that gave me fuzzy wuzzies! meeting your midwife is always really exciting!
Thanks guys :) And I've just spoken to a doula, she was a doula for a BB girl (maybe more), I met her a while back at the screening of Throwing Out The Lies With The Bath Water, we made a good connection then so I emailed her, and we're going to meet up in the new year :dance: and she offered her services at $800 instead of her usual $1600 which is awesome. She's a midwife as well so I reckon she'll be fab. Soooo happy and excited now that everything is coming together!
Great news - hope you have a wonderful meeting on Friday
I had a nice chat with our midwife today. We talked again about the post-dates plan - S&S sound bloody awful btw. I'm fine with labouring and birthing, I'm just worried that I won't actually go into labour... again... She was very reassuring, but I can't quite shake the feeling that it just can't happen. It feels a bit like the old TTC feelings - never happened for us. Intellectually I know people 'just' fall pregnant and 'just' go into labour, but I just can't see it for myself. :(
Laura says my baby will show me how it's done
