that's funny (cos its your chair, not mine of course!) I'm constantly amazed at the trouble my Iz gets into - open the pantry door and does she go for the flour or the rice? No. The red, blue and green food colouring! I'm just waiting for that disaster to happen.
The pre-labour IS helping Tan. I know its so frustrating at this point but it is all such good stuff that is going on. With Izzy I took all the tablets and did everything I was supposed to do, but had very little prelabour, and had a 36 hour labour from an induction. With Elena I had sooooooo much prelabour, took absolutely nothing and honestly, it was so incredibly quick - I'd have been giving birth on the kitchen floor if it was any quicker. Really! So, don't underestimate the power of prelabour. I know you're worried they're going to push the c-section on you if your little man doesn't make an appearance by your next appointment but you may be surprised - they have sounded really understanding so far so stick to your guns (if the need arises).
Best of luck Tan. You won't need it, you'll be great, but good luck anyway. I don't know if I should say this but please, don't think you have failed anything if you do end up with a c-section. I know its not what you want and having never had one I can't understand the depth of your feelings, but I'm worried for you. The main thing is that you and your DS are safe and well.
Anyway, enough babble from me. I hope your appointment this morning goes well. Better get going - last minute packing to do. OMG my carry on bag for the plane is huge - friends had to deal with a very sick child on a plane back from Auckland recently and their tale of how far the vomit went has scared me into packing half their wardrobes for the plane!
Bye ladies. Huge hugs and kisses to all gorgeous toddlers and mummies. If any of you Melbourne ladies hear strange noises later today its just the sound of me screaming and tearing my hair out while I try to keep Izzy in her seat for hours at 40,000 feet
Lulu - have a fantastic time! LOL at packing heaps of clothes, I'd be the same! Hope Izzy is well behaved on the plane!
Tan - good luck with your appointment today, hope all goes well! YAY that the prelabour is continuing, that is fantastic news. Won't repeat what Lulu said cos she is 110% right. I will keep praying that all goes well and that you get your VBAC but more importantly praying that you and your little prince are safe and sound by the end of this pg, not matter how he arrives.
Dan - how is Livvy, hope she has settled down and that you have all had some sleep.
Well I'm off to get some housework done then might take Ellie out to the park - such a gorgeous day here today!
Lulu and LIs... TBH I've been a bit worried too about my mental state if I end up having a c/s but as I said in my other thread I've done all I can- all I can do now is wait and if the fates decide that my little man is meant to enter this world through the sunroof like his sister and he is healthy then that's all I can ask for! I've given it 110% I'm exhausted and retired to the fact that all I can do now is wait and I WILL be holding my little man within the next week! Sooo excited to meet him! I wonder if he will look like DH! Izzy is SO fair and we are dark skinned and haired and we were saying this little man may have picked up more Japanese genes than she did which would be so funny! Can't wait! Ladies!
Hey girls, still around just busy with life. I have not been too busy to read everyones posts though. It's great to hear everyone is doing well aside from teething. I think we have some bottom molars coming though ourselves. It is not fun. I hear the eye teeth are even worse
Noah is growing up fast like the rest of them. His favorite words are uh oh, he says it all the time. He says uk too which I think is a repeat of a much used word by me which means I really need to watch my language. He still only has those 9 other words like before and the 2 new and maybe says open or something similar? It is so hard to understand what they are saying, it all sounds gibberish to me.
Thats all I have left in my brain capacity for the day until Juz wakes up and gets me my Maccas brekkie which I have been craving forever.
Awww me first posts are fun though !!!! It's tradition Chloe!!!
Still hanging in there- posted in my VBAC thread about my appointment which went well - fluid levels excellent, bub waved at me and is SOOOO cute! Monday's c/s cancelled and more monitoring on Monday. They will schedule a "back door" c/s (nice hey) on Wed/Thur although I will be pushing for Friday! Don't mess with a sick overdue pregnant woman whose baby is doing FABULOUSLY.... Yep my cold is horrid, nasty coughand all achy so about to jump in the bath while DH takes Iz up the street. to you all lovely ladies - Lulu hope you are havng a fabulous time in Sydney and hope the girls behaved on the plane!
