Oh GFH - I Can't believe you're team yellow!!! I bet you know really, and you're just not telling us But I'm pleased that bubs is healthy.

You're kidding, if I knew I would either

a. be celebrating at no need to spend any money on clothes, or

b. be decluttering copious quantities of girl's clothes to all and sundry!!

Morning ladies,

huge congrats legs welcome Molly

Sorry to see that the rest of you bold girls are still there!!!!

I haven't jumped any queues yet either, so no worries. Did have a very 'special poo' this morning though and am in a lot of pain, just nothing i can quite put my finger on.

Went to have a blood test this morning as they forgot to retest my iron levels, but that is all i have planned for today, i think i may go back to bed as feeling quite sick and sore.

Oh well only just over a week before i am due!!

Labour vibes to all the bold ladies and hugs to anyone who needs them. I am going to hibernate

Sammy - my scan date is 2 weeks today, by then I'll be 21+5 so I deffo need to see a MW before then. Hope she rings soon.

Hope things get moving soon for you Emsy and Fuzz and the other bold ladies, we need baby pics.

A colleague just brought in her 5 week old daughter, absolutely stunning, I took to baby cuddles like a natural

dusty do you not have a midwife appt for around 20 weeks? I saw consultant and midwife around then but my scan wasn't till 23+6 stupid hospital. I don't think there is any harm in having an appt to see her and hear the heartbeat for reassurance xx

Been to see the midwife this morning, she said I probably didn't really need the appt but at least she knows what is going on now. Hibiscrub doesn't need to be done before I go in, I can do it there this evening. She was quite sure I'd need to stay longer than the 48 hours so I think she was preparing me just incase. She measured me and I was measuring 42 weeks now so still big, I think she is interested to know how big the actual baby is now too and how much is fluid.

Couple of hours then I'm gonna start tea, doing a huge spag bol so I can freeze some portions, almost straight after have to leave for the hospital for steriod injection and possible sliding scale.

Woke up this morning all excited like christmas then just got more nervous throughout the day. Gonna be loads of waiting around though so gonna drag till tomorrow morning.

Labour vibes for all the overdue ladies xxx

All very exciting Merfe, fingers crossed it will all go very smoothly, i was surprised to be told i had a big baby as my MW has consistently said that i was measuring small or spot on, but now i have a baby that is more than big enough to survive out here even in this weather!!

Woo hoo successful sweep :eek:

Well, not that it has started labour or anything, but Cervix is favourable, dilated and MW touched the babe's head :T

go go go LOL Bet it won't work now :cool: Next one on Friday

Ahhhh...Poor Ruby will not be attending my scan appointment tomorrow as she has chicken pox I'm gutted as she has been so excited about seeing the baby on the tv On the plus side she is really not that bothered by the chicken pox at the minute & she is carrying on as normal. We're both having a pj day as we won't be leaving the house.

MOTM's scan is the 12th, I just checked back. I'm dead keen to find out too!

So exciting. Fingers crossed for a good labour and little/no intervention. Remember your breathing exercises.

I used hibiscrub on my doggie when she chopped the end of her tail off :eek:

Emsy that's fab news, when I got my sweep the midwife said that she had just touched the babies head (it was bl00dy painful but I think that's just me! ) and I went into labour within a couple of hours, granted I had been getting LOTS of gel to try and move things along but it was the sweep that worked for me so good luck and lets hope you get to meet you wee boy very soon

Fuzz thinking of you and mummy fuzz hope all goes well x

Dusty sorry you are having such a rough time of it it would be great if you could relax and enjoy the rest of your pregnancy. C'mon baby Dusty kick your mummy and reassure her!

Merfe really excited for you, all the very best for tomorrow and looking forward to seeing some photos

Grateful glad all is ok and your scan went well!

Sammy take care of yourself, hope the spotting stops soon.

Chicky that doesn't sound pleasant at all, poor you Hope the increase in meds helps.

Becky poor ruby, my DD has just got over her chicken pox so at least that's it out the way.


Twoflower think about you every day, I am so glad you have lots of support.

I keep thinking about Pawpurrs, hope she is ok

Wasn't intending doing such a mammoth post sorry!
