  • Is it normal to feel so out of breath at 32 weeks? I feel like I'm an old woman trying to haul myself round the house! X

    Hi, I have been out of breath since about 28 weeks, consultant said it is bcuase I am large and baby is large, my lungs are having to work harder because it is for both of us!

    Oh Emmy - I am a rubbish Diabetic, I gave in and had a chocolate bar, my first in 2 weeks though, so expecting bloods to not be very good tonight, but I just couldn't stop myself!!!! x

    Was just wondering what happens at a midwife appt when you're overdue? I'm due my next appt on thurs when I'll be 40 + 3 days. Would I be offered a sweep then,or date for induction? Thanks x:)

    Depends on where you live lucy. Here its 10 days over for induction so at 40+3 I'd imagine they'd offer a sweep and date for induction but I know in some places its 14 days over so they may only offer sweep at 40+3 x

    Hi!!

    Charlie was born 17th February, 3:20am, 7.8lbs.
    Was a short, but traumatic birth. 1st stage labour was 5hrs 10min, 2nd stage 25min, 3rd stage 10min. I found the pain quite unbearable, and no where else but my lower back. The pain relief was very slow to come to me. I went from 4-10cm dilated in an hour. Had an epidural at 10cm. They couldn't believe I had got there so quickly and were quite shocked! Then they were worried about baby so had to start pushing sooner than planned, suction cups were used.

    An experience I wish to forget, but the result is my beautiful baby boy!!!

  • Congratulations mozzy and the other new mummys :-)

    Just counted and myself and Lisa are 27th after the boldies and our babies are due on the 27th.

    25 days left at work however arguing with work over the 4 half Fridays needed for my ante natal classes. Work 35 miles from home so would mean a 140 mile round trip to get back to work after classes for 30 mins of work. I think not.
    Hope everyone having a good weekend.
