:eek:MOAN ALERT:eek:

3 days til my due date, so much for consultant and midwives saying it could be an early one!! No sign of anything now, no twinges, had the best night sleep in months, and bubs is very quiet in there today. Just feeling fed up, tired and really dizzy today....I'm just praying it comes before 29th as im not looking forward to having a sweep - and the thought of induction on the 4th October scars me even more...... i think its being in hospital im scared of more than anything. I was fine when i thought i was being transfered to the birthing centre, but found out yesterday (from the news and NOT my midwife!!) that the birthing centre is closing down for 4 month tomorrow due to the 'baby boom'.... so i wont be able to be tranfered there after all!!:( Was nice of my midwife to let me know!!!

Just a quite update: Well I've just been to the Health Visitor. Was weighing day. I joked to OH this morning that it would be funny if she was a 10lb baby already as she feels a little fatty

so she was born at 9lb 1.5oz then she went down to about 8lbs 15ozs at her 5 day weigh in. At 10 days she was up above her birth weight and weighing in at 9lb 4ozs. Not a bad weight gain for 5 days. So carry on 2 weeks and she now weighs 10LB 14OZS!!!!!! :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Alex was 9 weeks when she weighed that!! :rotfl:

She's such a good girl though. She wakes up at about 2.30am-3.30am for a feed and then wakes up again at about 6am And she's being breastfed

Wow, well done! Are you feeding her clotted cream??

MV that looks lovely. Baby Grateful will be getting a pink room and a pink and orange pram. Let's hope its a girl:rotfl:

Labour Vibes to all who need them, And congrats to all the new babies. Look at all the boys that have been born!! I suppose it makes up for all the girls that were born in June/July time

How are all you lovely ladies? All loving being pregnant?

Sounds like mine.. she gained 4lb in just over 3 weeks and is just over 10lb at 7 weeks (she started off at 6lb 14.5)

She nags to go to bed at 8:30ish and wakes up at 8am with a feed about 4am.. love it!! No doubt it won't last!

smartie are we neighbours then? NDDH is rubbish, have met one sensible consultant and the community midwives are ace.
REceptionist in maternity dept is bloomin rude.

I had the most awful time with the maternity unit whilst pregnant and after birth (and with the hospital as a whole still *sigh*) We were advised to keep a diary to make a formal complaint but we don't know if we can be bothered to take things further:o Also I can't help but think I wouldn't of had to go through such a traumatic birth if they weren't so rubbish:( but will admit it wasn't totally there fault. I did come across 2 docs who were BRILLIANT however:)

Oh yes... we must be neighbours;)

MV - I love that nursery - so cute

We haven't had any bump picces on here for a while - I wouldn't mind having a nose

Here's my very first bump pic at 14+2:

Sammy_Girl

Sorry, it doesn't seem to want to go smaller I know it's a nuisance having to scroll across the page. I will try again to reduce the size. Grrr.

ETA: Maybe that's a little too small now!!! Gah, I can't win!!

ETA: Finally, a more sensible size!!

Metranil_Vavin

I can see it fine Sammy! Nice little bumperoony you got going on there!

I'll be doing a bump update pic tomorrow so will post it then
