Georgi - Waters Broke 31wks pregnant

[Inanna]

You are doing so well Georgi! That little boy is getting stronger with every hour he is inside you.

[*Beema*]

Goodluck Georgi, keep strong and stay put bubs!!

Bub is measuring a great size, and the longer he can stay put the more weight he will put on, it's a bit slower on the outside!

I am so glad they were able to stop your labour, when my waters broke and we got to the hospital 1.5 hours later (had a lot of trouble getting in to a hospital that night and we weren't worried as contractions didn't start until 45 mintues after waters had broken)!! I was 7-8cm dialated and contractions 3 min appart so no going back for me!!

But all has worked out really well, bubs is doing great, 11 days in SC, they can be real fighters, everyday inside counts.

The MW's were great, teaching me how to hand express, then moving onto the pump, every drop counts, I was almost in tears if I spilt a drop

There is also plenty of support online for mums with premmies, it can be a pretty stressful time, as it can be halpful chatting to mums who have been through the same thing and understand the differences in milestones, can give you info on what you may expect etc. PM me if you need to chat or any of the links.

Goodluck and prove them all wrong!!

Good Luck Georgi Prove those dr's wrong!

[Georgi]

Awwww, shux... You girls are so encouraging & supportive. Thank you all so much.

VIC I'll definately PM you once my bub arrives & get some tips & links

Georgi,

That's a shame the meeting was cancelled, but so good you got to have a chat with the other lady in there! And she only lives 10mins from you!
Perhaps you'll see her again at Pindara when you have your little man there.....
Keep up the great work!!

What did the MW's say about using a vaporiser?? Trust me, it's the best thing for my nose....

ps I'll have to go baby shopping without you this weekend hehe

[Inanna]

How are you today Georgi??? You are never far from my thoughts my love.

[Jewel]

I hope you're doing alright and your little man stays put.
Make the doctor eat his words.

Best wishes

i got an email from her earlier. She just hasnt been on line much today as she has been snoozing on and off all day and her and DH were going out for a walk so she just hasnt been bothered jumping online.. we all get like that ay.. she needs all the rest she can get..

Where is Georgi today? Hope she's going ok... Ren you wouldve heard something tho right?!

I was thinking the same. Normally she posts by now.

Hope things are ok for you Georgi.

[Georgi]

I'm here... It's just that everytime I have logged in to BB someone has come in to my room so I haven't had the chance to post. It's so strange, I have all the time in the world yet can't seem to get everything done lol.

I've had a handful of friends ring to see how I was so that has also taken up quite alot of time.

There was a new midwive today, well one I haven't met yet, and we spent lots of time talking about birth. She teaches the pre natal classes & when I told her we missed ours she was happy to have a chat. It was great.

I'm still stable. Temp, BP & heartrates are all good. Bub has been a little quiet today which has only concerned me as I've read that they go quiet just before labour starts. I also had alot of BH & tightenings yesterday & this morning plus getting some mild period pain again. But today hasn't been as bad. I had quite a lot of fluid loss overnight too. I feel pretty ok though.

DH came to visit, as he does everyday, & I decided I wanted to go outside. For the first time in 10 days. It was so weird. We took a really slow walk to the local IGA express so I could get some more maternity pads & I wanted to get more face wash but they didn't have what I wanted so I sent DH home with the empty tube to buy it for me tomorrow. I told him to not bother coming to visit me tomorrow. It's his rostered day off so I don't want him to travel 3 hours just to see me. He's tired from working & travelling so I hope he stays at home & recovers. Also his brother is up from Sydney for the weekend (staying at our house) so he should spend tomorrow with him.

I've organised to meet my new friend (from room 904) Jane for coffee tomorrow at 1pm. We decided to go downstairs to the coffee shop for a chin wag.That'll keep me entertained for a while anyway.

I'm feeling very good about things. I will feel even better once I hit that 14 day mark. Only 4 days to go now. But I am ok with it if bub decides he wants to come. Ideally he'll wait till I hit 34 wks.

Thanks again to you all for all your encouragement. I'm so sure it's playing a crucial part in bub hanging on. xxx

[Shanti]

Georgi glad yours and bubs stats are good.... all is well. Super!

I bet you enjoyed the walk outside! The vitamin D outside would have done you very good from the sunlight.....

Enjoy having coffee with Jane tomorrow! Sounds like something you both will enjoy, can sit and have a nice chat together about everything....

I'm glad you got to talk to that lady about prenatal stuff seeing as you missed the classes. I'm sure alot of the info you would receive at prenatal classes would also be in the books you have read too so i reckon you are very prepared Georgi you've done alot of research etc.

Talk soon buddy

[Visitor7]

Sounds like everything is coming along nicely still. I hope the increased b/h or lack of movements don't eventuate into labour.

Enjoy your coffee with Jane today.
