was back to the hospital this morning for another CTG. Was on it for 20 or so minutes and had 4 contractions.. so now just more waiting. busy day today and my feet and ankles have paid for it. Thats one thing i wanted to ask Bianca when she pops in again. How soon after she had cooper did the swelling go down? becasue its so bad the docs say it can still take 6 months after bubs born, im hoping thats not the case!!!
Trini- i have to say im luckily enough that i dont get BH very often or if i do i certainly dont feel them, i got them once with alyssa and it was the day before i had her (only 8 hours before my labour and contractions started) but i remember it did hurt. Yesterday i got a couple but nothing that was too bad, Alyssa was a breeze to be pregnant with, Charli on the other hand thinks im a punching/kicking bag and doesnt stop, not that i dont love it cause i do, im so gonna miss being pregnant and feeling her move and kick when she comes out
Hollye- Hope everything is ok, just remember to try and relax, sometimes being nervous and stuff can slow labour down. My fingers are crossed everything goes well for you.
P.s- Bianca was in the young couples meet-ups so maybe try in there and ask.
Hi, IM new to this forums.
Im Charmaine from hunter valley in NSW. Im 24 with a 2 yr old boy just wanting to meet similiar ppl anyone here near newcastle?
Hi Cuddly84, welcome, look forward to getting to know you, I'm Kirra, 21 from Melb, i have a 4yr old daughter and another lil girl who's 37.5 wks baked.
Welcome to the newbies & welcome back to the oldies
Sally: i've seen the photos of Brendan & his premie doll elsewhere and it really shows how far hes come you have an amazing little man.
Ali: good luck for your blood results & your scan. We went to Townsville in August to visit 1 of Chris' brothers & his family, they live at Burdell. I liked it up there but not sure i could live there i'm not a fan of the heat.
Trini: sorry to hear of your DF loss {HUGS}
With regards to naps & how many, Sophie use to have 3 or 4 but these days will usually have 2 naps a day & depending how long they are she might have a 3rd nap between dinner & bed. She sleeps through the night no matter how long her naps are or how many she has.
Hey Girls,
Just popping in for one last time, to say goodbye.
ATM I have a lil bubba in pain, so im unable to type it all up again, so you can find my goodbye thread here.
Yay Hollye, how exciting. Hope it goes quickly for you. GL
Bye Meg, GL with everything. Hope bubs feels better soon.
I'm still waiting impatiently for labour.... bubs is 2/5 engaged, guess shes just not ready to come out yet so i will relax while i can.
Hope everyone is having a good weekend, im going out for dinner tonight and a movie, could be our last chance for a while. hehe.
Hi all, its gotten very quiet in here lately.
Hope all is well Hollye (maybe we havent heard from you cause bubs is out???)
Went to PBC expo yesterday and now my feet are killing me, lol. My sister also threw me a suprise baby shower so i got loads more stuff for charli, which means lots of washing for me today but oh well, everything i got was beautiful so i cant complain, we had lots of fun and im getting my sling tomorrow. yay.
I didnt get much sleep last night, so im off to have a nap.
Hope everyone is well.
Kirra - i wish. I have now been diagnosed with Pre eclampsia for sure and its not going away. I have been in the early stages of labour for days and the contractions are getting stronger but not closer. Doc rang this morning and wasnt at all happy with my 24 hour urine collection or my BP or my swelling (just my PE in general) and i have to see him in the morning if my labour hasnt progressed and start talking about induction. Its just not safe for me and bub with this PE to continue on any longer. Bout to go and have some lunch...
thanks for the well wishes everyone. im trying to stay positive.. im a toughy! i WILL get through this.
Hello! I thought I'd already written in this thread but it must have been a different one with a similar name.... It seems everyone whos talking is just about ready to pop! How very exciting! I've still got a while left but I'm so mentally ready for my baby now!
hi girls!!
i havent been in for so long coz i had my friend here iwth her two children and it was a mad house but im back now.
wow so much news,
hollye hope everything goes well, im sure it will, i had PE aswell and not much fun. sounds like your not far away from having her! good luck!!
this morning CWA (country womens association) called me and htey want ot hold my young mums groupd there every week which is just awesome. im getting really good responses!
also this morning billy's 18 yr old brother had 2 fits, he has epilepsy, billy used to but grew out of it and a few other people in the family had it too so were getting maddie checked for it in a few weeks. so we went to the hospital with him but he is good now.
Hi Everyone! I thought i'd drop a note and become a bit of a stalker of this group!
I'm 20 & DF is 21 and I'm 10 weeks pregnant with #1 + mother to 1 furbaby ^^;! I live about 2 hours from perth... Seems everyone here is meeting their little bubs already! How exciting!
Hollye- Hopefully your not too far off, crossing my fingers for ya that it all hurries up for ya.
Brunette01- welcome and congrads on bubs, your almost done baking him (i assume by the cars). lol
Amy- Sorry to hear bout billy's brother, luckily hes ok. GL with maddies check. How are you anyway? YAY on the mums group, will be really good for you.
Sally- Sucks when your both sick cause all you wanna do is rest and you've still gotta look after some-one else. luckily your both feeling better.
Teagz, welcome...long way to go for you but time will most likely fly and you'll be ready to pop before you know it.
Seems there are a few of you from WA, perthy way, maybe you guys should organise a meet one day. I met two other mums. Ash & Miranda last thursday, they are so cool, love meeting new ppl but can be a lil shy and i wasnt which was great, lys was... but she soon warmed up to them after they told her how cute she was, she loves hearing that. lmao.
Well im convinced my lil jellybean is gonna be late, im estimating the 5th nov, even though shes engaged, not one sign of pre-labour.. which was the same as lys and she was 3 days late. I've accepted im gonna be uncomfy for that lil bit longer. I'm trying to enjoy the last few weeks of it cause i know once shes born i'll miss being preg and feeling the lil movements and the not so lil movements. lol.
Well im gonna go have a shower and some brekkie, got a clothes party today, should be fun.
Have a good day ladies..... and again, GL Hollye
