Ok i think my waters just broke....doing the pad test now to make sure I'm not hallucinating....just got into bed there and was like oops I peed a little bit but now thinking its my waters. I'm also getting what I think are BH/contractions!!!
I'm guessing that as you haven't been back on since baby number 4 is on its way
I hope all is going well & good luck! 0 -

Notsobusy - very easily done! I'm constantly thinking - 'this is it' but I've resigned myself to the fact that she'll be a late baby now though. Maybe not a bad thing now that I've got wimbeldon to keep me entertained for the next while
Kash-poor you. The last few weeks are really not nice!0 -
Kash she could be side on...I can feel feet, knees, fists & elbows but she is head down looking sideways! Not ideal but better than back to back You sound like you are having a horrible time...hopefully you won't have long left!
Mamaheidi totally with you on Wimbledon if not for the impending arrival I had hoped to get tickets (ideally women's final) for my partners birthday this year! Bump kinda ruled it out so I didn't enter the ballot...maybe next year 0 -

I've heard this as well. You ALWAYS hear people saying "oh the baby is the spit of his/her daddy". It's sort of inbuilt in us to acknowledge that the dad is in fact the dad & to verbally say it to him. Sure there's never a confusion re the mother.I probably was looking a bit like a stranded turtle...:D
My OH called me a turtle last night as I was trying to get out of bed, it's really difficult sometimes!! I'm also finding it difficult getting on & off the loo, like an old lady.TwoMums2Be wrote: »Kash she could be side on...I can feel feet, knees, fists & elbows but she is head down looking sideways!

Mine's the same I'm almost positive. I think that's an alright position to start off with & baby should turn while in the canal so he's facing down... in theory.
Oh my stretch marks are after getting so bad. They are big angry purple lightening bolts on the bottom of my belly. Thankfully I can't see them without a mirror. But they actually spread all the way down to my unmentionables, I can see them through my lady garden shrubbery (jesus I need a wax, but I'm too embarrassed to go to my waxer lady). I think this may because I'm been carrying low for several weeks & it's just all strained down there.0 -
Mink the midwife at our antenatal classes was talking about women getting waxed & said sure we can do that for free...nobody enquired any further
The support belt I have might help as it takes the pressure off the lower abdomen muscles...I think my doc suggested it when my stretch marks started to increase 0 -

Yep getting them every 25/30 mins at the moment, like really really bad cramping. Poor OH just rang me in a panic because some of the cows broke out and he needed me to come down and help him move them. After we'd finished he was like are you ok? I said yeah I'm grand I think I'm having contractions, the look on his face was priceless.0 -

You've another two weeks so there is a chance baby could still turn back the right way (& then back the wrong way again
).
Did the doc give any indication that he had hope the baby would turn?0 -

Geez Cyning that would have me fuming! Leaving you another week without a decision so close to your due date is just not on!
At least your little one is well & he has put it in your notes that doc has to be present at the birth and baby is well which is great but you have every right to be angry
Where ya not tempted to ask him to let you give birth at his hospital 0 -
Oh I was so unimpressed... I could have argued for Ireland about them unnecessarily putting my baby at risk... Wouldn't you think considering that was my tenth scan there would be a bit more organisation?!
I'm trying to be a bit more positive now I'm just so releived a doc will deffo be there now without a fight
Anyway just out of interest has anyone else been swabbed for mrsa? I was told it was routine but u don't know if they meant routine for everyone or just those who have been inpatients in hospital or for those attending the high risk clinic?0 -
Still in hospital
Her levels r just above the level for the phototherapy bed. We will be here for two nights at least. She's back on the bed now and they will test her again in the morn on the bed and 12 hours later which will be tomorrow night.
I cld see myself that she was gone quiet lethargic again, so I wasn't completely surprised. I've just never heard of anyone going through all this for jaundice.
Spent most of the day crying! Think it's a combo of hormones, disappointment and frustration. But I will hopefully have company tomorrow. OH's cousins gf is being induced tomorrow morn. Hopefully N will have a new cousin by tomorrow night or Thursday morn.0 -
