Absolutely knackered so short story is - I did get my vbac and gave birth at home on the bed last Sunday to my little girl. Went into labout on the Thurs morning at 4am and she was born at 9pm Sunday night! Horrific time because I had a 4th degress tear right into my anus as her shoulders got stuck and then a post partum hemorrage too. So I got rushed into hospital and was put in Surgery to have my anus and vagina made into 2 holes rather than 1 again! And then was given a blood transfusion after loosing 1/3 of my body weight - 2 1/2 litres. Feel absolutely rubbish!!! Even now. Breathelss etc etc so have to stake it very slow. Been home 36 hours now stayed in 5 days. Breastfeeding is much better than last time. Had a tongue tie cut yesterday so now my nipples can heal a bit more. ITs just the ends that are sore though not the whole thing so positioning is ok.
Thats it for now she is stirring ready for a loooong feeding sesh! No sleep for me til 3am now ...

Claire - I'd wondered where you'd got to! I hope it all goes to plan for you.

Rebekah - Congratulations!:j Sorry it was difficult for you and hope you get back to normal soon

As for me - 34 + 5. Pregnancy insomnia has kicked in. I'm up for several hours in the early morning every morning just as I was for DD. Lower back pain has really ramped up, particularly in the evenings and I feel like baby drops into my pelvis when I'm walking and then pops back up again later! 34 week MW appointment so hoping to hear good things about positioning as DD was back to back and made for a very long and painful labour.

Congratulations Rebekah, I hope you heal quickly.

I'm so impatient now; after another worrying time last week I just want our little one to be here now. It's definitely not the relaxing end I'd hoped for!

Hope everyone else is doing okay

I'm with you on the had enough front, would be nice to not have to worry about movements etc. Baby was wedged up under my ribs overnight so I'm feeling a bit battered today. Thankfully seems to have moved back into the correct position again.
Had a few tightenings with back pain/period cramps but nothing lasting more than 50mins. Briefly got my hopes up but nope still pregnant!

You've had more of a sign than me - think baby is far too comfortable in there :rotfl:

32 weeks and realised that I have been organised by now with the previous children.

Sons were born at 32 weeks so gave me a kick to get my pregnancy bag ready so that is one thing almost crossed off my list. Have my scan this week to make sure all is ok getting close now although still a long way to go too.

Congratulations on the births and hope everyone is doing ok.
