    My first was due on the 18 dec, went into labour on my 17th birthday(christmas day) at 6.30 in the morning and he was eventually born 1.30.am boxing day. Theres only 10 months between my middle two and my last baby weighed a massive 10lb 1oz :eek:


    10lb 1 oz :eek: just reading that makes me whince

    always - 10 months between your 2, you didnt hang around ha ha

  • comps..what are they :rotfl:I tend to comp via ending tomorrow, and excluding the ITV ones I think I've done 10...remind me when I'm moaning I've won nothing next month...

    10 months between 2...only just thought about that :rotfl:

    I remember the midwife saying the most important thing was to eat, and I even refused chocolate (the only time though)..

  • Has anyone tried to enter the new bonkers form? If you put double pack in it takes you back to original form and tells you weather you been unlucky or not! :confused:
  • I can't add much to the pregnancy chat but still around and enjoying that bonkers has carried through to post-bonk chat :-)

    Only bit I can input is that when I was born I weighed in at 10lb 14oz which apparently was the weight of a 3 month old and I came out two weeks early. Poor mum wasn't expecting me quite so quick and I was a home birth so no gas or air or drugs - midwife arrived apparently about an hour before I popped out!!!! Just to make things worse I had collic? for 6 months after I was born and apparently wouldn't settle very easily which I understand can be a massive trauma for mums but she coped really well.

    She's the best as I figured if she could cope with that and she could cope with my wild teenage years of inviting friends back after clubbing at 4 in the morning and looking back now, I put her through so much!!!! I do let her know how good she is though and I'm sure many of you will go through the same ups and downs with your kids but I think most of us would agree that we still think our mums are the best and am sure your own will think the same too :-)

    Thank goodness for Caesarian Sections lol


    Gas and Air made me feel like i had been on a 24 hours drinking bender! It didnt help that my whole 13 hours labour I had to be constantly on all fours! So I was there on the floor having this gas and air swaying around in circles on all fours feeling like i was so drunk and about to throw up!

  • My - lots of stories !!

    My first - tried natural pregnancy but she got stuck. So had emergency caesar after 24 hrs.

    Second in France - they forced me to have caesar. But epidural didnt work and I could feel them cutting me - the doc thought I had a language barrier and making it up until I screamed the place down and passed out. They knocked me out with drugs I believe !

    Third - planned caesar - apparently my scar could have burst open if I tried a natural birth so I signed up for caesar without deliberating too much ! Again epidural didnt work but the lovely English doc believed me and knocked me out before I passed out.

    Fourth - planned caesar. They are gonna try epidural again but I would rather they didnt. Should be fun and games.


    Names - can you vote from these 3 please?

    Betty, Pearl, Cassia?
