November / December 2012 Babies

Hi Ladies, don't think I've posted since I joined months ago but keeping up with all the happenings through the email notifications I receive.

I am 28 weeks today, exactly 10 week to go until my c-section on the 12-12-12 at Cape Town Medi Clinic. This is my second pregnancy, my lb is already 5y6m, he'll be going off to Grade R next year and we have another boy on the way.

I don't remember feeling this uncomfortable in my first pregnancy but I do have a much more active baby this time and experience braxton hicks daily, plenty of heartburn and my husband and son are enjoying watching my big bump jump all over the show as our little boy dance an in-utero dance for us at night

Any other CT moms planning on going to Cape Town Medi Clinic in mid December?

Punchysmum, It is never too late to change gynaes. You are suppose to do urine samples with each visit to check for sugar, protein (infections) etc.

Ms_S, the ENT says he hasn't come across one child that has told their parents what they did He says they know they did something they shouldn't have & then they keep quiet. He just laughed cause he is so used to it!!!!!!

You can post me some of that choc chip biscuits anytime!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hi all thank you for the welcome. I am having a c-section and not happy with my gyni but its late now to look for another one. She hardly takes samples of my urine and just keeps forgetting why I have a scar on my v. So each time aim there I need to explain to her my condition for I am on chronic medication

My manager begged me to come to work today because my colleague bf has food poisoning. Just woke up from the desk now sweating and hot.

Iam also waiting for my bag from the medical aid and hospital as well. I haven't even bought anything for my self for the hospital coz I don't know what to buy.

Please help

That's strange but I thinks it's normal. Are you going to go through the pain of waiting for the baby to decide when they will be here?

hi Punchysmum and welcome.

the dates are ever changing Mosa most of the dates are just estimates. the c- sections are set but natural birth you will never know when the actual due date is. Some ladies go up to 42 weeks.

Ms_S good luck wth the bag smeone bought me one for my shower at least he has one now.
