Thanks comongethappy. I've had a couple of teary moments since he was born but they do pass. Most of it is hormones, like a friend sent me a video of a lovely song that had links with my son and I was a weeping mess cause it was so sweet!
My guy is Rían
everyone seems to like it, but of course once you've named the child no one will say anything bad. The grandpwrents are just relieved he's not called rocky! his dad got that in for his middle name though.
I'll try to find the due dates etc list we had here and start to update it with the arrivals.
Best of luck with your little one any day now! 0 -

Wow, the new mams are flying. A but envious, would love to be at that stage.
Comeongethappy, you can't have too long now. So exciting.
37+4. On mat leave so was lovely not having to turn into work this morning! And the weather is lovely
Had a good chat with himself alst nite about some of the anxieties. I really can't get my head round the fact that it is going to be soon. Even if I go 10days over, there will (hopefully, all going well) be a little bubs within the next 4 wks at the very max! I can't imagine getting the stage of labour and delivery. Have never even been in hospital before my whole life so a bit nervous now. As for gettting the head around the actual being a mam...? Wow, it's getting all a bit scary! But of course I am very excited. Guess it's part of the process, the doubts and anxieties. I think since I finally put work behind me last week that I am really able to focus on the reality that I am going to have a baby very soon! Yikes!! 0 -

Morning ladies! 38 weeks today and I had a horrible night.
After my evening meal I just felt horribly bloated and nauseous and after I took my insulin the baby always goes mental so I just felt like my entire belly was going to explode!! Eventually at about 11 I vomited and it seemed to offer some relief for a little while but I was up all night and had another 2 pukes around 3 and 5. I've an awful feeling that I've a bug - either that or my body is finally rejecting all the whole meal / fibre / and eggs that I'm eating cos of the diabetes diet :rolleyes: . I only just got up there now and I don't want to eat anything as I still feel sicky.
I've an antenatal appointment this afternoon, hope they don't give out to me for going in there if it is indeed a bug. I'm so impatient now I'd love if they just said yes we'll book you in for an induction and be done with it. I have 2 friends who are due just after me and one had her baby on Saturday night, and the other is going in for a sweep today! Its ridiculous for me to be this jealous, but I can't help it..... But I guess feeling sick isn't exactly helping my mood either.
Anyway it is lovely to read how the mammies are getting on, and comeongethappy it's a bit rich for me to be giving out when you have gone over!! Oh and good luck with the interview pastry!!0 -
Well ladies, I got a big shock at the antenatal appointment, they've told me to come in first thing tomorrow and they are going to break my waters :eek: I knew I wasn't feeling right and actually started getting pains while I was in the waiting room, maybe only Braxton hicks, but I'm still getting them now! So maybe thy are not. I don't know.
So I'm sitting at home now, still trying to process that baby is coming! I'd better cancel my hair appointment for thursday ha ha.
Going to make one last dinner (had already taken meat from the freezer so I'll have to!!), get the Moses basket ready, have a look at my bag again and see if I need to make any last minute changes and then try and get an early night. Had no sleep last night so will need to catch up !!
My son is down at his dad's and hell bring him to crèche tomorrow and our friends will collect him after, and may take him for a sleepover unless it's all done & dusted and his dad can take him to our house or something.
Ooh this is very exciting!! :eek:0 -

Hello! Well of course nothing goes to plan and they really were contractions I was having so I went in about 9.30 last night and gave birth to a lovely little boy at 7.15 this morning!! He was only 7lb13 in the end, but at 38 weeks not a bad weight at all
Got to 4cm early on and then got an epidural at 1am. And stayed at 4 cm until 4 am! At which point they broke my waters and things started motoring properly after that. By 6 I was 9.5 and by 6.30 I was pushing. And out he popped eventually 45 mins later. No tearing, no stitches, no real drama!0 -

Big hugs for mummy & baby!
Any names yet?
We've decided on Calvin. He is pure placid, definitely the quietest baby on this floor today anyway. Will see what the night brings! 0 -
