    Thanks MS2011!

    And thanks to you all - you've been a great support throughout my whole pregnancy and some of you also throughout the difficult ttc process!
    Its so amazing to have a place to come where people understand exactly how your feeling and where you can rant and rage and moan without having to do it to your 'real life' friends who dont always appreciate your circumstances!!

    Im full of excitement and anxiety over tomorrow - I have no doubt at all that it will be the best day of my life and even that thougt is a little overwhelming. Im anxious about how the day will go and just want the hard part to be over so that i can feel well and be holding my little girl! My only wish is that she is healthy and happy and after that the rest will fall into place!

    I promise to update ye as soon as im capable!! and hopefully at some point put up my birthing story so that other ppl with breech babies can feel reassured that while its not first choice a section really aint that bad!

    Baby has the hiccups at the mo...god im gonna miss my bump! Im just looking forward to getting to know her out in the real world now!!

    Best of wishes to you all - i certainly will be hanging around this thread alot to seehow you are all doing with your pregnancies!
    May all your dreams come true and happy and healthy babies be in your arms soon, x x x


    All the very best for tomorrow, dublinlady:) Do keep us updated! I'm nearly 4 weeks after my section now, and honestly it's no big deal, over before you know it, you will be grand. Just think this time tomorrow you'll be cuddling your little girl, oh the excitement:D:D

    Best of luck tomorrow DL :) hope everything goes to plan & your recovery is quick xx


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,880 ✭✭✭caprilicious


    Aw lovely post Dublinlady, I'm so excited for you!!!!!
    Feel's like it was only days ago we were on our ttc journey & here you are now your last night before baby arrives!


    I hope everything goes really well tomorrow & that you recover very fast x

    Can't wait to see your update when baby arrives :)

    I didn't get to bed til after 2am last night, I was getting some strongish braxton hicks.
    So funny in hindsight, at the back of my mind I knew well nothing was happening as I had the same on my last pregnancy, but I started thinking I don't have my hospital bag packed yet :o I had visions of having to get the other half to go to the shops and pick up the essentials. That wouldn't be good :o
    So going to get the finger out and get the last few bits'n'pieces bought and packed for it over the weekend.

    I already had several packs of newborn vests/babygro's, so have them all washed, dried & will pack them over the weekend. The size of the teeny vests & socks awwwwwwwww!!

    Ooh I hope baby get's the hint and get's out soon! I went 14 day's off with my daughter & omg it felt like 14 months! Doesn't help when you have family/friends every day asking things like 'any sign' :rolleyes:
    Fingers crossed you won't have too much longer to wait before meeting your little one :)

    Had a monitoring with the midwife yesterday. Baby is grand. I even had a mini-contraction during the monitoring (didn't feel a thing!). Because I will be 41 weeks on Sunday, the midwife recommended I contact the gynecologist to find out when he will organise an induction. Apparently, I won't be let go later than Thursday! This surprised me considering in Ireland it seems women go 2 weeks over routinely! I have to know the date of the induction so that I can organise a monitoring with the midwife every second day to check the baby is ok...

    I'm hoping I'm go before the induction...


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,624 ✭✭✭wmpdd3


    I'm delighted you have a 'round about' date. I bet it seams like a target, must ge before Thursday!!

    I was reading you had a show a few days ago. I had one the day I gave birth but I googled it (as you do!) and nearly every site said 'you will go in to labour in the next few weeks'! Very vague.

    It's great you had a mini contraction while being monitored, atleast your body is getting ready, baby's head must be inching slowly towards the exit.

    Did they do an internal? I remember you say they keep it to the minimum, but wouldn't you love to know if you were 1cm, though I doubt its worth an internal.

    So its a sex marathon for you till Thursday then? (!)
    Best of luck, what ever happens.

    Would you believe I had my show more than 2 weeks ago now! I had an internal on the 2nd, and I was 2 cm dilated! Don't think it means much though seeing as nothing has happened since then!

    The sex marathon sounds tempting :p but the logistics are understandably a bit difficult at the moment! :P

    At least it'll be over and done by thursday! Can't wait to meet him and see who he looks like and all!
