Babymiracles - just wanted to let you know had lots of the 'OMG need to stop walking as gripping pain afflicts upper legs/groin' - particularly for me on my right side where my dodgy hip was - it happened a lot in the last month of this pg although it wasn't such an issue last one - think bub was sitting on something sensitive this time - had fun freaking out random shoppers in the dairy cabinet at the supermarket when I had to reach over and grip shelves until it passed (Sorry, twisted bunny...)
Welcome to Bimboo - hope everything goes well and good luck Liz in the last part of your pg!!!
Well - Joss Tait arrived yesterday with a bang!! Waters broke at 6.30am but day was full of irregular fluffy type sensations so I relaxed a bit thinking it would be some time before we met bub - should have known better! At 6pm, like a lightswitch, suddenly burst into full active first stage - rang midwife, rang friend and by 7.30pm both were at our place and I was echoing down the street apparently By 8.15pm was getting ready to push and clambered out of bathtub to give 6 great heaves and our DS was born in our loungeroom, like his sister, at 8.37pm - very healthy, no real trauma for me and we finished up with mimosas and groaning cake while the washing finished and the bed was made up - still stunned but you get that
Thank you to everyone for their wishes, especially for our homebirth and support - it has been wonderful - I hope to keep popping in to see everyone hold their little ones!
