    Morning ladies

    Firstly massive congratulations again Nic, well done hunni gorgeous!:j

    Debs so excited for your scan tomorrow it feels like it has come round quickly!:)

    And as you can see I'm still here :( looks like this baby is being forced out tomorrow and if I'm honest I am completely devastated about it, this was the first thing I said when as soon as I spoke to my midwife and consultant, that I wanted to avoid as much as possible. unfortunately he/she has to come out one way or another and yes I suppose I could ask them to put it off but I think that is just proloning the stress of it all.

    Most of you probably think what's the big deal, but to me it is a big thing, not only because what I went through with DD but I really wanted to experience the whole labour thing from the first twinge and the "oooh is this it or not" to deciding when to go up to hospital etc etc and this is definately my last so will never get a chance again, I am scared about it not working again, I am scared that I am going to be in hospital for days on end again, I am scared that my waters wont break and the gel wont work and I will end up being put on the drip ... in fact that would be the worst case scenario, and most of all if it doesn't work I don't want to leave my DD for days on end!

    I know by tomorrow or Thursday (or dare I even think it Friday!!) I will have my gorgeous baby and it will all have been worth it but at the moment I am just gutted.

    Sorry for that woe is me post, I really needed to get that out :(

    Oh bless you Teenie - it's a shame it all hasn't turned out how you'd planned it. But, the safe arrival of your little one and your health is the most important thing, and as soon as you have the bubba in your arms, it won't matter how he/she arrived.

    Sorry you are having such a rough time of it Teenie. :(. I know it won't help you any but I know exactly how you feel about wanting for once to experience things how they are meant to happen. This is my last baby too and I have never been in labour and never had a natural delivery and am highly unlikely to this time either and when having a down moment I dwell on it and wonder what that says about me

    Aw hun, I imagine going so far over is awful and I really hope the same doesn't happen to me. You wait 9 months to get to your due date and you expect it to start happening, but in reality for most women it doesn't, and some of us need some help :)
    I agree with Debs, the most important thing is you and your baby's health, and you'll forget all the waiting when you have them in your arms :cool:
    Have a big hug xx

    HUGS Teenie - just wishing you good luck really as not much more I can add to others comments. Just try to remember you'll be having mummy cuddles before very long xx

    Congrats to other new mummies - sorry I've been away all weekend so haven't properly read back.

    Minor rant now feel free to ignore. I've been in work for all of 30 minutes and already 3 people have said to me (in fact the only thing anyone has said to me this morning) is gosh you've really grown over the weekend haven't you? I'm not even 25 weeks yet - is this what I've got to look forward to for the next 15 (+) weeks??? This was the one thing I was dreading - I'm not Claire the capable employee anymore, I'm Claire the pregnant woman - full stop. I really feel like I shouldn't moan. I love my bump and I don't normally mind people commenting on it but its like it the only thing people talk to me about now :mad:

    And breathe :o
    Leo James arrived 7 days late on 26th August 2011 by emergency CS :j Such a cheeky chappy now :T

    Hi All,

    Good luck to all boldies - hope you all had a good rest over the weekend. I've updated the list to add Lynn welcome! and can see we've got a bit of a lull with due dates now for all our overdue babes to catch up.

    I'm 23 weeks today so only one week from viability :j though bump is very small still - I have an extra scan next week though so hope that baby is growing well - certainly enjoying its 10pm kicking - OH hasn't the patience to keep his pudgy fingers on my belly to feel for very long so I'm hoping that it will get a bit stronger soon and show daddy its really there.

    Had a funny moment on weekend when we went swimming and a precocious little boy first ran up to me and poked me in the belly then shouted across the pool 'Look Mummy there's the lady with the fat tummy' - bless - his mum was so embarrassed. And I've got 3 and a bit months growing to do yet.

    Also celebrated our 2nd anniversary yesterday which was lovely - can't believe how much has changed - last year we were still on SIL's sofa bed.

    Anyway hello and goodbye for now x
    team yellow :)
    Can't wait to meet you now baby!
