I had such big plans for maternity leave but my to-do list has long been abandoned! The fact is by the time I get the dogs walked and the house hoovered and whatever clothes need washing done, I don't have the energy for the extra things I had in mind. I am having a hard time even walking now, with pain in the pelvis.
Yep, determined not to beat self up, this is the one time we'll have off and are truly meant to relax. I'll have my list if I feel like doing anything but going to try and not feel guilty if I just laze in pjs all day watching films!! 0 -

Hey ladies haven't been on for a while I was in hospital being monitored twice a day coz baby was moving as much as it should be but all turned out ok thank God and baby is weighing about 5lb 15oz right now!! I'm really struggling as well with the walking and driving and just general stuff but I find bouncing on the exercise ball really helps especially with the back pain. On a brighter note I'm been taken in on Sunday eve due to the diabetes they don't want me goin to far over the 38 weeks so all going well baby will be here by Monday. Feels very surreal that in 4 days I'm going to be holding my little bundle hope everyone is keeping well
Oh wow that's so exciting!!! Hope all goes well-can't wait to hear of another announcement!! 0 -

So exciting ladies are starting to POP!
Def with you fima - would love to go soon - feeling like something is 'happening' like the weight is unreal down there and I keep getting different feeling twinges, so exhausted too - just can't sleep properly. Last night I dreamt about my waters breaking all night and kept waking up feeling the bed just in case! My last week in work this week, am really struggling - keep trying to get out at lunch time and regretting it as feel so tired on the walk back to work!
Just a note on the due date list - I was moved forward from 24th to the 14th Thanks! Hi to all Dec mammies! 0 -

Oh I don't even feel like anythings happening down there
Had a midwifes app this morning and she said the head has just entered the birth canal (i think that's what she meant) .... I was thinking it was all set to go for last 2 weeks based on what another midwife told me. So frustrating thinking I could be like this for another two weeks or even more Want my baby now! I am having the tightenings which I was told are my pelvic floor muscles contracting and also Braxton Hicks all the time but no pressure as such ...
I have a scan tomorrow, its for the hospital to measure the babies head as part of a study they are doing called the Genesis programme, is anyone else doing this? I wasn't pushed but a doctor rang me and promised me a good pic of babies face so I am not leaving that scan room tomorrow until I have one ... will have to do me for the moment!0 -
My sil had a baby boy yesterday and my sister had a girl this evening these December babies don't like waiting around!
I'm feeling lots of pressure and lower back pain I really hope baby doesn't come before section date. Only four more days in work and my maternity starts can't wait to finish up.
Welcome lulu1985 hopefully we'll get an update from mil83 soon. Hope all the December mammies are good 0 -
Looks like babies will be here in the next two weeks or so due to my blood pressure problem the longer they leave me the higher the risk of a sudden deterioration which could be dangerous for me and the babies. So my doctor has made the decision that 36 weeks will most likely be my limit. I'm just under 34 weeks now. A planned c-section (has to be a c because first baby is permanently breech!) At 36 weeks is lower risk than an emergency c at 38 weeks
I must admit I am kind of relieved cos I just don't think I could do another 4 weeks - another fortnight I might just about manage. I have pelvic girdle pain/spd on and off and when it flares it is agony to get up or down the stairs or walk more than 100 metres. Weirdly the pain is just on one side of my pelvis, kind of in my you know where. It is a pinching and stabbing pain. I imagine it as a vein or something but doc says no, not a vein its pelvic.
Traces of protein showing in the urine which also needs to be monitored as if that increases then I will have to be an inpatient until the birth and I REALLY don't fancy that. So about 16 days! So excitingly petrifying! And it will possibly be Friday 13th if they go with my exact 36 weeks date! Lucky I'm not superstitious! Lol0 -

Hey ladies thank your for all your kind thoughts. I started having contractions at 3 Monday morning after 2 doses of the gel. At 10 that morn the gave me another dose because nothing was happening. Contractions got a lot a lot stronger but at 5pm I was still no further on so my consultant decided it was best for baby to be born straight away so off for an emergency section I went.
After having contractions for all that time myself I was heartbroken but in the end it was best for baby and at 6.34pm I had a beautiful baby girl weighing a healthy 6lb 6oz. We are calling her Alanna I cannot describe how I am feeling happy is an understatement I'm just in awe of this tiny human being that I created and she's just beautiful. Will be in hospital for the next 4-5 days but can't wait to get home and start out new lives together 0
