London Miss,Kyra wolfe,Boc~~
Thank you for your replies ladies.Thats makes me feel a bit better.I am already showing due to a very stretched tummy from my sons birth.That reassures me and i think i can feel my uterus now just above my pubic bone. I did some reading about the dopplers and most people say that it can cause more concern if you dont hear anything,due to either the position of bub or misuse of the doppler.I think i will just give it a miss.I remember feeling Connor's first kick when i was 16 or 18 weeks.(it was one or the other) and have read that you feel it earlier in second pregnancies so hopefully if all goes well next week,it shouldnt be too long before i start feeling bub move.That will be much more relaxing.
I tend to end up a nervous wreck in between scans.
Tried on some dresses from my wardrobe this morning to wear to my nans 80th in week and a half time and NOTHING fit.My stomach is too big for my dresses.I was very pleased that nothing fit...how funny is that? LOL I love seeing my bump.
Anyhow im so glad thaat you have helped ease some stress.Thankyou so much.xxx
poppyfairy oh I feel every bit of your frustration. But DH is right it will happen it's just the when.
Saph how did hosp tour go. I loved mine but I bet I forget it all when i'm in labor. Hope you're ok with you very healthy weighing bubba. I think bigger babies always look cuter (i know that is no help for a mum delivering) but they do.
Ella'smum sorry dtd didn't go well. hope last night was betta
Wantbaby yes yes yes, lots of pain in 1st tri in my belly and down my legs mainly my right one. hope 1 weeks flies hun.
Hi LondonMiss hope all's well
Hi Smithy & Kyrawolfe thanks for the labor vibes (hope it works)
Boc my money is on smithy first and congrats on 28 weeks well done.
ATM went shopping today and it was awful. I love to shop but I'm such a slow poke at the moment it's not fun, Baught a 5th b'day pressie for my god son and a new top for post baby me. (70% off). Mum came over and took me which was nice, she's a bit of a home body but i'm trying to get her to visit more in prep for new arrival and NOT going out as much.
Been feeling really saw in the belly again, I wonder if it's the physio? I went yesterday cos my butt was so sore again and last night my belly mainly the lower bit hurts to move, to lie to sit to do anything. Oh well not long now.
I have been told so many times "rest now" before bubs I think I'll rest better when I have my body back! But it really isn't long now. The last day bubs will be here is the 1/2 so I guess it's not that long. Oh cooler day today so I feel like I'm human again not one of those green slimy things you can buy in a can. (not that I'm green but I did feel like goo)
Ha ha goo describes it perfectly! That's just how I felt! It's raining here now and I don't think I've ever been so pleased to be a bit nippy!
I'm most irritated with my little giraffe, who seems most reluctant to move away from the 12 week tree and into the sparse unknown of week 18!! Move up little giraffe!
We're off to Adelaide/ Kangaroo Island for 4 days tomorrow which I can't wait for. DH has just announced that he's getting a blackberry. He's already working 10 hours a day and then on the phone to the UK all evening! Just what we need - more ways for work to find him! Anyway, we're away in a lovely hotel with no dog, and I'm taking my best new belly covering nightie, so maybe we'll DTD
Robin Patrick arrived in a great rush Sunday 10th January 2010. Exactly 7 pounds (3180g)
Still in shock over labour....quick summary.....Vaginal delivery after 20 mins pushing....I was in the hospital having contractions for about 5 hours beforehand but have no idea how long I was in labour for because according to the official guidelines of dilation etc I never reached 'established labour'. So officially it was a 0 minute labour LOL! (wasn't laughing though when the midwife kept on telling me my 4 in ten minute, over a minute long, strong contractions were not proper labour yet and therefore she wouldn't let me have gas and air or get into the birthing pool yet) So I did it all on two paracetamol!!!
More details later as I am off to sleep while DH cuddles bubs. Cannot believe he is here at last. I am loving cuddles and his little face!!!
Oh my goodness - congratulations! That's wonderful news although I'm very confused about how you managed that with no official labour!!! Well done you! Post some pics up soon once you are recovered x
ps did the army have to come and get you or did you get to the hospital ok??
Congratulations Poppyfairy on the safe and fast arrival of Robin. What a gorgeous name. I hope you enjoy your babymoon all 3 of you & look forward to photos.
Greenslw cheering you on as it seems you may be next!
Londonmiss, enjoy your mini break and GL with that nighty Kangaroo Is is supposed to be beautiful, lucky you. Any chance you can loose DH's phone while on holiday???
BOC happy 28 weeks and nesting sounds fun. Also welcome to 3rd trimester!
Wantbaby2 so glad you are enjoying your growing bump.
Saph that is a big bub you have there. If it helps you my sister's SIL delivered a 10lber & a 12lber in her 40s all au natural.
Hello everyone else I have missed
AFU we have our 12 week NT scan tomorrow and I can't wait to see Phoenix again . A question did anyone NOT have a scan between 12 & 20 weeks and still cope ok? Something that I am considering but its more likely I will decrease scans from 20weeks on if I decide on going through the birth centre rather than OB.
