Hey Guys... wow so much to catch up on... I did see that Eve your test is now out of 75 and not 100 excellent! But other than that guys must say being home really helps... my nights are still bad but by 4am I start sleeping and now can sleep till 9am etc... so I catch my sleep in... fantastic!!! So no more panicking, just very odd sleep patterns...

Going to movies today with my sister, watching loads of TV shows DH downloaded tomorrow with my Mom and reading on Friday and pals visit ... that's about all I got planned for the week lol! Wonderful!!! But then AGAIN... I am meeting London on 31 May!!!!

morning ladies

Vicky - just to confirm what everybody said our height, build etc has nothing to do with natural birth - biologically our pubic bones are a standard size of 10cm and all babies heads avg at 10cm xl and then as u know the 2 halves fold over to mold out of your bones and as some of u might know once your head can fit through your whole body can to so a baby is streamline i birth canal (built for your size) and then once popped out it unfolds (literally unfolds into a human)

when lea came out she was approxamitely the size of a big mango then unfolded and measured 47cm so WOW

btw - she was estimated at 4kg's birth ended up at 37 wk at 2.8kg but dr said even 4 not issue and I am 1.64 and pre-baby 57kg's so not big

oh and my mum is 1.6 and wear size 4 shoes and gave birth naturally no epi or tearing to 7 kids

Morning Ladies,

Hope you all have a good morning.

Vicky - Hi, yes I live in Kensington (JHB).

Eve - So very glad exams are now over, I am sure you did very well. Take a well deserved rest now.

Noster - I also suffer from a bad back, it is really painful. I also think that the GP should book you off for half days, however you must rest during that time and not go and do other stuff like spring cleaning, etc.

Who knows how Maureen is doing?

Hi ladies,

Hope you are all doing fine?

Eve - so glad your exams are over, enjoy your rest before LO arrives.

Welcome Vickylee. Hope you find the forum helpful.

OK, so I had a total of 3 hours maybe 10 minutes sleep last night. From 2:09 to 5:21. Reason being I had to go to the loo like 10 times last night and the worst part is, I only drank one glass of cooldrink (450ml) since 5 o'clock. Then when I got back into bed at 5:21 it was Chloe's playtime. She kicked my tummy and arm all around the place. Then I just gave up trying to sleep and just laid in bed. But now I am already tired and the day hasn't even started yet.

I am going to ask my GP to book me off for halfdays for the last two weeks before my c-sec as my back is killing me. Always had a bad back, but now I am crying every night when I get home. So if all goes according to plan, I will work halfday from the 31st of May. Then some of you will me mommies already.

Going to the gynae again tommorrow at 34w 5d. Chloe's estimated weight 3.1kg. Will let you know.

Have a nice day!
