August-September 2010 Moms

hi ladies!

blessed i think it is time....ek wag vir jou sms!

gilry enjoy your last last last day! i'm still at the office, but i'm quiter (and more relaxed) at the office than at home, so that's my only reason for still being here...at home it is just busy busy busy (especially if you've got a monster) and i just always end up in the shops...shopping (and beauty salon visits and the hairdresser) is all i do in my spare time when i'm not at the office...

Babyzee glad everything went well.
I think the lungs only start maturing about now, and from 37weeks it gets better.
If there is no reason to do an early c/sec talk to your doc about doing it at 39weeks. If he has reason to do it earlier, then he will be able to explain this to you.
Enjoy your maternity leave!!

M2J sounds great!
If baba is engaged and good weight etc then I think you could at least try a natural
Enjoy some time with your girl this weekend And maybe the parents / in laws can look after her while you're in hospital, make it really special for her?

M2M you just have small baba's. But you're right. Last time by now you'd have had your baba and now you're almost 38 weeks

I started the milo again last night. Its yummy on a cold night before bed, and good for you! Although doesnt help me fall asleep was still awake well past 12.

B2B wow really! Keep me posted please
I'll be waiting for that SMS
The plug can be clear / mirky / pinkish / blood but its very jelly like apparently?
My discharge also very different now, and at night time I go to the loo all the time!

Then I dont think I've had BH or if I do I dont know about it. I do get ligament pains though, but often in my sides so I think my baba still needs more growing space now.

Kaylee was so nice & active last night! And DH says yesterday morning while he was snoozing he lay with his hand on my tummy and she was kicking away. Sweet man!

I had horrible dream that DH was unhappy that I was keeping him awake at night and suggested I sleep in the lounge! Shew I was so upset at him, and let the whole world know - we were out in public. Lol.

I better get to finishing my work off - today is my LAST LAST LAST DAY!!! I cannot wait for this day to be over and know that my time is my own for a couple weeks.

Hi ladies..

Sjo, the preggy bellies is getting less now

Girly - i don't know what to feel for!! I do get cramping more often now and the BH is sore now and also more often! My back is hurting and it feels as if he is going to fall out!! I did not have my "show" yet, or let me say i don't think so!! Having a really chick discharge but it is not all clear but also no blood or pinkish! So i don't know!! Going to the loo more often, about every 5 min Just have a feeling it is going to be either this weekend or early next week Can not wait any more!!

Ok ladies, have a great day!
Char - good luck for Monday!! Thinking of you!!
Mina moo - enjoy your last few minutes of being preggies!! Can not wait to hear the birth storie!! Enjoy it!!

Blessings to you all!

wow all these nice predicted bith weights and estimated weights...just my baba that is so small (again) ;-( but i'm ok with it cos my other lil man (now big) was a pre-term baba...

i am doing the milo/horlicks thing (since day one, i'm addicted to that)...wonder what else to take...any shakes - girly you mentioned something the other day.

and girly on the BH, i'm getting it daily now. and mine is not a strech feeling it is a burning spasm feeling, really very similar to when one's back muscles are in spasm. AND it is as if this lil man's enjoying it! he is SO active afterwards...strange lil man of mine!

Hi

congrads to all the new mommies, im doing it for the second time and i am soooo nervous.

Had my check up today, she is engaged and it was difficult to measure her head but doc is happy and says she is 2.9kg should be around 3.1kg at birth i discussed my options with him, my gynae is on leave so its his partner i saw and he is confident i could go natural even though i had a c-sec first time he sees no reason i coulndnt do it.

I know my gynae is against it, so confused i really dont want a c-sec i just hate the recovery it wasnt pleasant trying to breast feed and handle new baby in pain but im afraid of the unknown of natural!

I want the option where the stork just drops her off on my door step LOL

So next week, my final appointment he will do a crevix examination and determine wather it is a safe option for me otherwise its a c-sec 10 AUG

i am really nervous, i have been so paraoid about my other lil girl feel like im pushing her aside to have a baby, i have never been away from her so im going through some guilt.

charnenaey- I felt the exact same with my first c-sec all along i thought something would go wrong its nerves. Make sure they put that catheter in after spinal...they didnt with me and it was horrible. Once that spinal kicks in (THE SPINAL DOESNT HURT) and i am abig baby with needles your adrenanline takes over you dont even feel it...once its kicked in it is smoooooth sailing and a beautiful experiance..enjoy it!

Goodluck

girly- we getting there 3 days apart ! wow, matter of days now!

get some rest ladies, our lives are about to be turned upside down...in a good way!

Woohoo Congrats Naizka & Liani enjoy every moments with your lovely babies.

Mina all the best for tomorrow i will be thinking of you

Charnenay what a wonderful growth spurt all the best for Monday just three sleeps and your bundle of joy will be here.

Girly i know what you mean a baby changes your life big time, its so wonderful it is just a love you cannot describe whole and complete i am sure you are going to do great, not long to go now, you will be on such a high when baby comes you will not even notice anything else.

AFM went for my 36th App yesterday everything is fine baby weights 2.9kgs doc had a look at my uterus and said babys lungs are not fully developed if he was born now he will be in the neonetal, my last appointment is on the 6th of Aug he wants to do the C/S on the 10th he will check and let me know otherwise i will have it on the 17th. I am kinda hoping to have it on the 17th baby will be 39wks then but we will see next week. Tomorrow is meant to be my last day at work before my M/L starts but i am not going in, i am totally and utterly exhausted.

Have a lovely weekend ladies lots of rest and to the mommies enjoy your little ones.

O how I wish this was over! I am feeling not lekker tonight. I have been swelling horribly.

Girly, the stress is normal. But all will be fine. For me the whole hospital experience was wonderful both times.

Words cannot describe the love and joy!

I wish mine was only 2 weeks away!
