Counting down the days now.....

[1stbaby]

yeah I'm still hanging in here....but I'm getting frustrated.
A friend of mine said it didn't look like he was coming soon because he is so active. Today I was sitting in a cafe with music playing and he was bouncing around. Same with a hairdressers later on...opera playing and once again he was bouncing around. Apparently he is having too good a time according to my friend and doesn't want to come out. :(
Looks like it is a race between the last few of us who are still waiting.

1stbaby:

sounds like he is still havin fun in there :D
didnt want to be a xmas baby afterall, perhaps a new year baby now!

Indy was still abit active before i had her but i did noticed the change towards the end of the pregnancy..
i wish there are some definate signs for labour approaching!
the only thing i got, was in the morning i felt like **** and needed to lay down but couldnt really describe what i was feeling. just wasnt feeling good.

anyways let us know if/when anything starts !

Still waiting....

DW is having a hard time with the heat at the moment, not alot i can do, feel so helpless...

[dannii]

hi superdad
yeah i could imagine. its hard enough carrying around the extra weight, and the weather just makes it so much worse.
Hang in there! wont be too far away (your prolly sick of hearing that huh!)

Have you tried anything to try bring labour on? walking, sex, pineapple ..hmm i dunno.... i forgot all the tricks already! haha :D

[Superdad]

Yes, yes and umm no...:)

[brooke]

hello all....
I hope that the ladies who still havent had their bubs are off having their babies now... not much time left in dec for these bubs to arrive!
I found the epo tablets worked for me!
Dannii- where is that post.. whats the name of it??

Best wishes to all the new dec mums. I'm still waiting and its driving me crazy. Could be a Jan baby at this stage (can't believe tomorrow's NYE).

I've had days of 'pre-labour' which is a nightmare - cramping, back ache, contractions, but not the real thing... :( The closest I've come is 6 mins apart, but they didn't eventuate into anything. My cervix is dilating a little and everyone says it'll happen today/tomorrow/next week - they just don't know. Arrgghhh! Did anyone else get this??

Hi Austi,
I had a few days leading up to the actual birth with contractions 6 mins apart. For about 4-5 days I was going to bed feeling like c*#p, sure that it would happen that night. When they were for real I was so sick of "alerting" my DH that I let it go for about an hour but by then there was no doubt!
Good luck-it can't be too far away.

Hi austi-
sont worry I had the same thing people kept trying to predict when it was going to happen.. each time some one said a day and it passed I would become more depressed and upset.. by the end of it I thought I was going to strangle the next person who "predicted" a day!
I hope it happens for you soon.. I ended up being 9 days over so I feel your frustration!

[Superdad]

Still waiting as well austi! Could have a nye baby! If it doesn't come tonight do i have to start posting in Jan 2006?? lol

[1stbaby]

good point! My bub is definitely a January baby now!
I am now getting frustrated as i dont want to get induced. the midwife says that you are more likely to be monitored and i wanted to be able to walk round during labour.
i hope my baby decides to come before the induction is scheduled. I haven't felt like anything is going to happen soon.

[Superdad]

Well it didn't happen last night. My DW is in the same boat no niggles at all

[dannii]

wow it has been quiet in here for a couple of days... surely thats a good sign ???? :)

[Superdad]

DW gave birth on 4/1/06 to a beautiful baby girl (see Baby Bianca thread!)

[1stbaby]

Hi
Just to let you know I had my baby last Sunday. He was induced when he was nearly 2 weeks overdue. I went through full labour but ended up needing an emergency ceasarian(sp?) I had to spend 5 days in hospital but I'm recovering and my little Justin is adorable. He weighs 7pds 4.
anyway I'll post my birthstory when I get some time. I'll have to catch up on all the posts later that I missed while I was away.
Better go and get some sleep.....being a mother is a shock to the system!

Congratulations 1st baby!! Hope you have a speedy recovery.
I have to agree, being a mother is a shock to the system but we'll get there.
