    Yay what a great start to the shiny new thread with the birth of Charlotte, congratulations Fuzz :) and the imminent arrival of Emsy's little one too (good luck Hun).

    Hopefully the new thread will be full of labour dust and some of those other bold ladies will start popping out those babies soon :j

  • Being 2 weeks overdue and booked in for induction the next day then going to your Uncles funeral - well it worked for me. I never did make it to the funeral but instead held my beautiful son in my arms

    Oh yes I was also told but havent tried it to tweak your nipples for half an hour. That was told to me in the hospital. It releases a certain hormone

    Clary sage, mix in with a carrier oil, rub into the bump.

    Tried it with dd2, waters broke 4 hours later - contractions 23 hours later, baby 10 hours later - maybe would have started then anyway
    Tried it with ds2, waters broke 2 hours later - contractions an hour later, baby 2 hours later

    dd1 and ds1 came on their own at 38+6 and 40+4
  • Wow emsy, that is commitment posting from your labour bed! Congratulations Fuzz on baby Charlotte, slm on baby Tabatha and Legs on baby Molly. x

  • Nice to be "home"

    Big congratulations to Fuzz on the birth of Charlotte, hope you recover swiftly. Thanks Ladylegs for letting us know.

    Good luck today Emsy!!

    Quick update from me, now 28 weeks and feeling lots better after yesterday's anniversary, funnily enough I was more emotional a couple of days before than yesterday which was weird but at least now I can feel I can enjoy being pregnant and try to relax.

    Been signed off work until maternity leave starts on 20th December, SPD is really starting to kick in, hips are more aligned though now which is a plus point. Just keep telling myself that I only have 10 weeks left (being induced at 38 weeks all being well on growth scans) which is scary. :eek:
    Next scan is on Wednesday. :)

    But hospital bags are packed, I don't know how mentioned the idea originally but I've packed 2, one for me and one for the little fella, saves taking a huge bag into hospital. Just got to write my birth plan.
    Quick question - I don't know if any of you know but I keep getting conflicting information on this on the net. Can you breastfeed whilst on Clexane? My MW didn't seem to know for sure.

    Christmas presents all bought (online) and just waiting for last couple to come. The ones I already have got are wrapped and I will tackle the Christmas cards next week. :T

    Off for bacon sandwich and to finish emptying and sorting the babies room.

    Good luck for all the bold ladies today and look forward to popping in later to catch up. Have a good day all!!

  • Sarah, information on breastfeeding and anticoagulants here... But there's not much there... You could try ringing the drugs in breastmilk helpline it's a very helpful service :)
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

  • Come on Emsy. Carry on contracting!!!

    I'm currently lazing in bed watching New Moon and thinking about the jobs I'm supposed to be doing..... :-)
  • Congrats fuzz.....gorgeous name. Hope you feel better soon xx xx

    Hot curry, fresh pineapple, walking up and down stairs, lots of sex, nipple twiddling, foot massages ...

    I spent hours sitting in very expensive antique leather chairs hoping my waters would break. It didn't work :o

    Good luck!
