I have to apologise to Gigi - I feel so bad! I just re-read some posts and realised that I didn't get a chance to read your post when I replied last time. It seemed like I just totally ignored you! How rude of me! I'm terribly sorry about that. Yes, BB is a great way to meet other mums and get inspiration and support through all the baby stuff and beyond. I'm glad you found it - especially if you haven't got family support close by. I hope that your pg is going well. Yes, having a baby is a bit like a lucky dip, and they're all so different! My first one has been pretty good, although he's just hit the 'terrible twos' (I didn't think they really existed - how wrong I was!), but I have a feeling that this one is going to be a bit more of a livewire - it felt like he was having a house party in my uterus all last night. I barely got any sleep! Anyway, thanks for dropping in - feel free to anytime.
Kim - sorry you're not getting much sleep. I would check with your GP before giving Darcy gripe water, because I heard that you can't use it under 1 month. I hope you find something soon. Are there any pics we can see yet?
Shazz - hope you got your washing done! I forgot how it builds up - I'm already two loads behind... how will I go when bubs is here?!
The GP was very surprised to see me. She reckons they'll induce me early next week if nothing has happened. I really hope that I go naturally - the thought of being induced really scares me. I think the standard time period is 10 days over, so I'm happy (well not 'happy', but you know what I mean!) to wait the full ten days if it means I go naturally. He was going absolutely bananas last night - he's always been incredibly active (DH, Mum and my best friend who is almost a doctor have been really surprised at how much he moves!) but last night was ridiculous. I barely slept a wink, and he was kicking me so much that I was actually crying out in pain! DH was a bit worried, but we both had to laugh at how much energy this little man has got. Makes me a bit nervous about what he'll be like when he comes out!
Anyway, will probably post tomorrow. Mum and I are going to take Charlie for a picnic at the beach and do some opp shopping - gotta do something to pass the time or I will go insane! Rachy should be joining us in here soon too - I think she was being induced today.
Hope you're all well, and lots of love and kisses to your little bubbas.
