Lauras Diary of Incubating

[MrsLmc]

No no sign of baby yet. I've had the fecking runs now for nearly two weeks!! I have my scan tomorrow so I'll mention it to them then. I did notice that some of my plug is starting to come away and the pressure is still there so hoping something is happening. I have been have false starts for a while too, with the cramping in my lower bump and back pain, but nothing ever comes of it. Here's hoping he/she isn't too far away!

Aww Bróna congrates on being an auntie again. Lovely name, I don't think I've come across that one before. xx How are you getting on??

Nope no baby today either haha. Had a scan today, she says baby is about 7lb and is back to back. Both my others were back to back so I can't see that changing. She says to bounce more on my ball to try and get it to turn. I've another scan now on Monday at the hospital. She says they may give me a date then for induction. Everything else was grand so they are happy to let me carry on as I am.

Slept a little better last night. The bug or whatever was going on seems to have cleared off so I feel a little more rested.

Laura at the AN class the other day the physio told us to get down on all fours, resting our arms on the balls and kinda rock forward and back was a good one to make sure baby turns if we're told its back to back... Anything's worth a shot right??

Obviously if you don't have a ball you can do it without just that you put your weight on your arms.. N be careful not to fall forward.. (lol)

39+5 -- 18/12/2013 -- WEDNESDAY

Yeah I was told that before. Both mine were born back to back so I know no difference really lol. I tried all that with the other 2 and it didn't work. I'll try again for the next few days.

Thank god my appetite is back today. For the last few days I've just been eating dry bread with that bug. Today all food seems to have stayed 'in' lol.

Brunch
Chicken, cheese, sweetcorn and red onion toastie
Coffee

Dinner - in the oven
Tuna pasta bake - (mushrooms, onion, celery, courgette, pepper, sugar snap peas, 2 tins tuna, carton tomato with onion and garlic, pasta, cheddar and parmesan cheese)

Snack
Not sure yet, no doubt I'll have something before bed.

22/12/2013 -- 40+2 -- SUNDAY

I am still here girls. I don't feel this baby is coming any time soon even though it feels very low.

I've an appointment tomorrow for a scan and should see the consultant then. I think he is going to give me my induction date.

I cannot for the life of me believe I am still pregnant. I really thought I'd have a 3 or 4 week old baby at this stage. Its all so surreal....

I'm feeling fine, just a bit tired, and my hips and back are sore from the weight of my ever expanding bump. I'm trying to keep active but rest plenty at the same time. Poor hubby decided to finish up today for Christmas, he doesn't like leaving me in the house with the kids by myself. He is being so supportive. He is taking anything heavy from me and is trying his hardest to keep the kids occupied and encouraging me to rest. He even bought baby a new monitor because our old one is a bit static and he is scared we won't hear the babies little noises. He got the Angel care one . I've sent him off to his footy match today and he was delighted to go god love him. I'd say cabin fever will set in soon lol.

Mom has invited us up for dinner today. Really looking forward to it now. So all I have to do now is go and shower, shave my legs and do my hair.

Hopefully baby will come tonight or tomorrow or wait till after Christmas day....

I hope you don't get an Xmas day baby, thinking baby eviction thoughts for tonight for you... Sounds like your hubby is being an absolute star, make the most of it and get plenty of rest

We have the angelcare monitor for Seth and it's been really good so far, no false alarms and not too hard to use once you get used to it. The instruction book terrified me but Colin sorted it all out Xxx

Oh Laura. Sorry uv not gone yet. Was hoping ud b holding ur little bundle by now. Fingers crossed if it today/tomoro it's straight forward n yer home in time for Christmas with ur little ones...
Glad hubby is being so good. Obviously the fact he's been here before he's a tad more understanding than most men!!
To think they were getting u all set for an early arrival.... Fingers crossed for u hunnie xxx

Laura, I cant believe you are still pregnant! Totally expected baby Mc to be here by now. I'm pretty sure you're fed up of hearing that already though. I'm fed up on the constant 'Anything happening yet?' texts and I've still technically got two weeks to go.

Sounds like your hubby is doing a good job of looking after you. It's nice to have these lovely men who understand how hard it is. This last bit of being pregnant is absolutely killing me, what with my cold and the horrible stomach pains, so it's nice when our men look after us.

Keeping everything crossed that baby shows his/her face soon xx

 

[Kim26]

Hi Laura, how are you doing? Hope you managed to get some sleep last night and hope baby either decides to make an appearance or stay in for Christmas.

xx

I second this! I can't believe you're still pregnant either!!

How are you feeling? I hope you're ok - not too fed up, and hope baby comes soon. Maybe baby knows this is your last pregnancy and wants to hang around for as long as possible for you.

Come on bubba! You can come out now!!

Hope scan goes ok today xxx

 

[BoS83]
