Due April/May 2016

Hello ladies

@MamaK, luckily my work is not too hectic at the moment, I am mostly sitting at my desk editing our website and making new images for advertising, so getting up basically means going to my manager's office or going to the bathroom haha tomorrow will be my last day and then maternity leave officially starts for me, and I will return to work on 15 August.

@MamaK, @licious, @Sonsbaby, thank you for everybody's thoughts and concern, no signs of labour yet, just alot of braxton hicks, and it is quite difficult to walk as I feel alot of pressure, I have not seen a mucus plug yet, but not sure if it has just been coming out gradually, or if I might see it at all, or maybe just before labour starts, you never know

I am waiting patiently, we are still going for walks every afternoon with our dogs, tried some spicy food on Tuesday, that did not work, haha, we also tried BD on Tuesday to see if that will work (tmi hehe), but nothing yet. I will try to be active over the weekend to see if that helps!

We saw the midwife yesterday and she did a non-stress test, everything looked fine and baby's heart rate was perfect, anything between 120 and 155 beats per minute, I still have alot of amniotic fluid, so no worries there, baby seems to be very happy. She said they will only think about induction if I go 10 days overdue, but if baby is still fine and I want to wait until 42 weeks, that will also be fine, I hope it does not come to that eish

I will keep you posted if anything happens! Have a lovely day!

@Blou where are you dear? hope you are getting action...thinking about you.

@Maj I wonder why they are so sluggish, may be its not urgent.

@MamaK I am also clueless...will appreciate any advise

@Sonsbaby....your boss is mean!! tomorrow you should only work 2 hours, actually not work but say your goodbyes to your colleagues

ohhh today my vbone is very painful and also I am little bit nauseas.....

Hallo ladies!!

@MamaK - oh my better pack that bag LOL!! I packed mine last weekend and must say it jacked up the nervous feelings I am also thinking of doing the walk thing to get things going as baby is already 3.2kg and dr said it is ready to be born! I don't want him to get too big

@Maj - so strange that they make you wait for that drip!! LOL I am sure talking about birthing details will silence the men Can imagine those faces when you start talking. I also have hip pain and its making things difficult! Last time dr said it was normal as its the body getting ready for birth so I am just taking it easy and having warm baths every morning that seems to help a bit!

I am super annoyed today as my wonderful manager arranged two meetings for tomorrow!! Like really on my last day could cry!!

@Blou - Today is your due date!! Holding thumbs that baby does not make you wait too long!

Good morning Ladies,

How's everyone doing today?

@blou how are you feeling, any signs of labor yet? Keeping you in my thoughts.

Ladies, which feeding bras would you guys recommend, I am so clueless in that department.

@Blou, I agree, i dont mind being overdue, I just dont want to be induced or forced into c-sec!

@licious, dont even get me started on the snoring bit!! Hubby is a deep sleeper, so he doesnt really complain, but my daughter does!
I remember during the last month of my previous pregnancy, my nephew (he was 7yrs old then) was sleeping on a mattress in the room with me, and he kept complaining about my snoring, and said he could not sleep the entire night!!

@mamak, i know that feeling of having tons to do, but no oomph to do any of it!! Glad you had a good sleep.
Dont go for that walk until you have packed the hospital bag though im fairly certain I will still not have mine packed when I go into labour!! (i had the baby bag packed but not my own with my first pregnancy )

AFM, i decided to go ahead with the iron IV. when I called the dr's rooms this morning, she said they were still waiting for the med aid approvals. When I asked how long that takes, she was very vague-depends on the med aid, etc which I thought was a little odd!! anyway will wait and see when they get back to me!
Everyone at work is making me nervous! they think the baby is coming at any moment and keep checking if everything is ok! I think I should start telling them that im getting pains in my pelvis and go into details about mucus plug loss!! (i work in an office full of men!!)
My hip is really sore. I am incredibly stiff in the morning, I dont know if this is normal, and if there is anything I can do about it!

MamaK you haven't pack the bag I think you should do that dear... when coming to walking I am not registering myself for that...I get so sore when I walk for only 500m...but good luck!!

@maj as free and bored as I am I don't wanna do anything, lol. I have 1 or 2 things I could do. I just need some company I think, being alone all day everyday is what is driving me up the walls.

@blou how do you do it though 40weeks and still going to work, wow. Please bring some of that energy and calmness my way. I'm with you on not having a problem being overdue, I just don't want to be induced, that's the only thing that worries me.

@licious hahaha I get that snoring speech every night, my husband even recorded me cause I wouldn't believe that my snoring is that bad, lol.

I had such a good night sleep last night, I actually just woke up 10min ago, damn it felt good, I've been struggling to sleep since the weekend.

39weeks today, whoop whoop. Hubby and I plan to start walking in the afternoon to try get things going.

I haven't packed my hospital bag, because in my head I'm convinced that I'm gonna be overdue, lol, taking chances I know.

Have a lovely day ladies.
