Thanks ladies

Well I'm back and everything looking good (on paper) had another scan just to check measurements so baby is about 8lb 8 at the mo so heading to be a similarish size to DD which is what I have been expectin. Was hoping for a sneaky sweep but I am actually ok that he never even mentioned it (so maybe I'm not quite ready yet??).

Have a sweep next Wednesday with midwife and have an induction date of the 5th May he gave me a choice of anyday that week and I said as late as possible so he said he wouldn't be happy going any later than then so fair enough DH wasn't over the moon when I told him, he is desperate for bubs to make an appearance but it is only 2 weeks and 2 days at the most until things get moving and hopefully there wont be the same sort of hassle as there was with DD. Really want things to happen naturally but I just can't see it somehow, will just have to keep bouncing on that ball while tweaking my nips

Congrats Lotty and good luck to Wendz & Bella!

Apricot hope your OH gets on with it and rids himself of the virus and germs before you rid him of them forcefully

Digital I am registered for the free evening ones next month, glad I didn't pay for them as well, much more MSE.

Vroom I am sure it won't be long, bubs will want to appear before the Royal Wedding surely...

Teenie glad appointment went well and you have a date now, here's to hoping you won't get that far because bubs chooses earlier...

Empathising with bad nights sleep just in terms of hot/cold, then our cat started meowing as usual around 6:30 to be let out, managed to persuade him to come join us for a bit and we got lots of purrs.

Maybe TMI, but, er, is anyone else getting sleep with *benefits* these days? I have always been lucky to have once or twice a month when I sleep and wake up happy and now I am PG is seems to be around 3 times - last night being one ;)

oooh Teenie, I have a sweep next Wed as well, booked in for induction a week on Sat. I am so ready for it now x

teenie.. please tell me you know you have to be tweaking 45 minutes out of every hour for it to even think about having some effect? Though I have wondered if fitting them to the tens machine might work *shrug*

This baby is a slob.. it has a tiny wiggle about dinner time and another late evening and that's it.. Squeak was hoping about like a demented kangaroo by now! I also missed a lot of her movements due to an anterior placenta.. I think this one may well be as unmoving as its dad! and good grief can it eat.. it is a piglet

Benson

Im still here :eek: 6 days over due - I knew i would be:rotfl:

Sweep booked in for Good Friday but id rather hold off i think as we're having a big party on the Saturday so i really don't want to miss it (plus im organising it :rotfl:)

Hope everyone is feeling well!!

pigpen

Benson.. baby on Saturday then .. never fails

Hi All,

Am in an awful mood today and generally tired, sore, grumpy and hungry and sick all at once grrrr.

Anyway Hope all those ladies in labour get an easy time of it and that babies arrive safe and well

Apricot hope the OH offers to sleep on the sofa tonight so you can get some rest! Or you could offer him the car instead? hehehe

Vroom - im jealous of you being so far along but not jealous of the over due situation - hope the induction works for you tomorrow

Benson - hope the big party goes well - maybe bubs is waiting to arrive on the day

Sparkle - sleep with benefits? Confused!!!

PigPen - have all of your pregnancies been different or have you found some have been the same as others - sorry being nosey

Digital - i have been agonising over whether to go for the NCT and am not sure how good/bad the Northampton NHS courses are - does anyone know???

Hope everyone enjoys the sunshine

Puzzled - you know, sleep with the kind of dream that brings in a result during your sleep sometimes with no need for a dream at all...

hello ladies!

thought i'd check in after being absent awhile, i read every day though.

good luck to those in labour :j and huge vibes to the boldies!

i'm 19+3 today, got my scan next tuesday and i can't wait my mum is going to be ordering our pram for us and i'm stupidly excited about buying sheets and blankets for the crib we're going to get :j

baby is moving about like nobodies business at times. i've been able to feel it kick for a while now and the other day while in the bath it made my stomach move for the first time. i've also been able to feel it squirming about for a couple of weeks now, it's quite uncomfortable at times, but i don't care

i found out at my midwife appointment the other week that i'm rhesus negative, so will have to have the anti-d injection - which i'm actually dreading more than giving birth!
