June 2010

I've calmed down a bit hehheeheheh - you ladies really are a G-d send! Thank you.

I guess if I think of it this way - contractions will be worse than a few pin pricks so I should be able to handle it. As long as they don't show me what they are doing

Juandre - when is your babymoon again? I wish I could go on another one. DH agrees with me!

Eve- I did not feel the epi. I was so scared of having it I was thinking of being knocked out for the c-section. But my dr convinced me to try and I genuinely did not feel it being done.

Skyler- if all goes well and I can have my VBAC I plan to go all natural for as long as I can. My Hypnobirthing book arrived yesterday so I plan on getting stuck into it over our babymoon!!!

Hi ladies, I planned to work at home today as my feet are so sore from being so swollen. But what I could really do is just climb into bed and sleep...

Hi Ladies,

Skylar - I know you have a lot to do, but take a few minute breaks in between, please.
I am going totally natural - no pain relief (because they do not offer it at the Government Hospital) and I am absolutely petrified.

Eve - What did you do that for? It will be fine, I promise. Nowhere as painful as contractions.

Thanks ladies

Yes I know I'm a dumb ass heheheh

Anyhoo, a couple of people have reassured me that it isn't sore so I guess I'll have to expect a pinch or so and then it'll be over.

Off to the funeral now now

hey ladies quick update!!! am sooo busy i thought i wouldnt have to use my brain today but my boss keeps giving me complicated stuff to do and i really have to think! argh and i have to train someone so taking a quick break

Simone - me too!!! have a runny tummy today and thinking flip also braxton hicks lol but think its more that i am so anxious and stressed to get everything done today before i leave its taking its toll and making me have the runs! i HOPE its not prelabour lol

eve dont do that to yourself! I stay away from all of that even in ante natal i didnt watch the epi part of the video as i am petrified of needles

Anyone gonna try total natural? I really want to try only thing i am going to use is gas... BUT hey i am not saying i will last i may end up begging for an epi but i at least want to try

Lucy only one weekend left! you are so not gonna sleep on sunday!

Sal cant wait to hear what gynae says keep us updated!

Eve, you are such a dumb@ss. Why do that to yourself.Apparently you wont feel the epi, the fact that is in your back is also a bonus that why you dont see a thing and what you dont see wont hurt that much.I've heard the drip in your hand hurts more than the epi. I hope its the case.

Simone, I'm going natural,as in vaginal birth but with all a epi.

Lucy, yes indeed Giggles has the same due date as us so she is also 39 weeks today.

Ladies my LO hasnt dropped yet, nore have I had any BH, I guess this means I'll probably still be pregnant for another week or so

Ladies, I just did the stupidest thing - I watched a Youtube video of an epidural being administered. Yes I know, I'm dumb!

Please can someone who has had an epidural please let me know what it feels like.

I am now so shit scared of having it, more than I was before.

I know they give you a local anaesthetic first but what do you feel?

I'm scared of pain!

Please help, I'm literally having the shakes here and feel all light headed like I'm going to pass out.
