Hope everything has gone well for Jillie at the hospital today. Anyone else notice that Helen hasn't been on for a good few days?? Hope all is well with her.

Nickynoo- I know someone this happened too aswell. Baby turned on the day of booked section. She went into natural labour sometime after her due date. She ended up having a difficult birth and had to have Em CS anyway!

Oooo, would be exciting if something is happening!! Have a feeling everyone in September will go early apart from me :mad:
Have about 3/4 hrs of backpain, period cramps and Bh's every day for at least a week and still nothing happening!!
My IL's are away from 15th-22nd. It was booked before we told them about BFP, I hope for OH sake they don't miss it. Hes so excited and the type of person who likes to share things with people. Total opposite to anti-social little me!

Good luck at hopalop, hope BP is behaving

woo hoo!! i'm home again.:j well been home for a while, been having lunch and a sleep

bp was high first 2 times, dr came and said it will prob go down the 3rd time, and it did!! so ok to go home!! :T spent 50 mins on the baby monitor (CTG) and all is fine.
mentioned about the backache but no other symptons of labour . the braxton hicks on the toco measuring were at the highest about 52. when you are in labour these will be over 120!! :eek:

Lalaalaaa - (sticks fingers in ears so not to hear of any more mums having their c sections cancelled whilst on the table waiting for the first cut).

I'm with the person whose notes said she was tired and fed up. I feel absolutely huge now, and every time my hubbie comes home from work he says "God, you're massive today" so I think I must be having one final growth spurt. I have finally started to put on a little bit of weight so I'm now at 37 weeks back up to just where I was at 24.

Feel so uncomfortable at the moment, particularly in bed. I'm having to get up to pee every hour to hour and a half, and even so am only just able to make it the 20 yards to the loo with my legs clenched tightly together to stop a horrible accident! I'm also getting bad back pains which keep raising my hopes that something is happening, and my hips are permanently sore and stiff. I know its now less than 2 weeks to go, but I really will be glad when this baby is out and things can get back to normal. I'm trying to remember how long after the birth it took to feel not sore again in the back and pelvis, but its so long ago now for me that I can't remember.

thought it was just me struggling with bed and back pains. i was in so much agony yesterday, DH had to help me go to the toilet sat as staright and against a firm chair last night and pain went, only for it to back when i woke for a wee this morning. i was nearly crying with the pain. getting little twinges in my foof area so i think baby is moving further down. i have taken 2 paracetamol so i can move around while DH is at work, but i nearly asked him to tell a white lie and say we were gona be longer at the hospital so wouldnt be on my own as much.:o

just 2 weeks to go nicki!!

Didn't get a reply about the fennel/nettle tea on the parent thread

What was your question, I didn't see it? I'm guzzling fennel tea ATM, luckily I like the taste

hi girls

I put on a stone and a half whilst pregnant and have lost it all (day 7).

*glares at you*

Don't worry about the amount you're expressing - it takes time to build it up and every drop does some good - drop your 10ml of EBM into a bottle of formula and don't stress.

Oh, and eat a lot of flapjacks!

Hi ladies!!

I feel like I've lurked on this thread long enough so time to join in.

I'm currently 20+6 and had my 20 week scan on Tuesday and everything was fine. We sam every bit of the baby but decided not to find out the sex - we're looking forward to the surprise.

We had problems in the past with 3 MC's so my family are really please for us both.

My EDD is 22 Jan 2010 so can I be added to the list next time it's updated please.

I'd appreciate any advice any of you ladies can pass on - I've started buying some of the monthly mags but no shopping yet. We've decided not to buy a cot until after Christmas (we hope to pick one up in the Jan sales a bit cheaper). My Mum and sister are knitting for the baby too.

Looking forward to joining in the chat.

Regards

Emma
