I'm a bit worried about my state of mind at the moment. Had baby by C-section on wednesday and ever since i can't stop crying. I know its normal to get a bit emotional after birth, but i am worried this is something more. I get to the point each day where i am bawling my eyes out, and i...

Just a quickie while i have 5 minutes to let you all know that baby Olive Elizabeth was born by caesarean section on Wednesday 18 June (so i queue jumped a little bit). She is the most amazing little thing in the whole world and i can't believe how beautiful she is! Will post a birth...

Hi Ladies Sorry i haven't been around for a while, been busy running around since i left work and trying to get my head around a few things! Went for a scan on Friday to be told that baby is in an extended breech position, with her bum in my pelvis and her feet in front of her face under...

Has anyone else had this? for the last week or so i have been getting a dull ache under my right ribs (front and back), so i am assuming it is baby pushing them, but i am also getting what can only be described as pins and needles, on my ribs. Its definately "inside" me and not on the...

I have posted this in the new "buy and sell" section...but so it gets seen by more peeps... Does anyone have a cot top changer that they would like to sell? we bought a changing unit but due to changes in the nursery layout we have decided to get a cot top changer instead, but don't fancy...

UPDATE At last Katy is taking baby Oliver home. Wishing them all the very best and can't wait to see some pics! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Just to keep you all updated... Katy and Oliver are still in hospital, but things...

Got a letter this morning from the consultant saying they had been unable to count the platelettes in my blood taken at 28 weeks, as the blood was too sticky and had clotted. I called the midwife immediately as the test was 7 weeks ago, and she told me to come in immediately for a retest. I...

Just got a text from Katy, after a couple of days in hospital, Oliver John Stephenson was born at 11.50pm on 23 May, weighing 6lb 14oz. :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: Mum and baby are both doing well. Hopefully there'll be some pics on here when she gets home. Congratulations Katy, very...

Just to let you all know I received a text from Katy at 10.40 last night saying she was going back to hospital as she thought her waters had broken. She is still in, nothing has happened yet and she is waiting for the Dr to get to see her. I will keep you updated if I hear anything more...

Does anyone know where i can get some headbands for my baby girl? You know the things, they look like sweat bands that go round their head, and sometimes have a flower or something on them. I have looked EVERYWHERE and i just can't find any. I think they're so cute, i really want some for...

Just got a text from Katy... she has been in the labour ward since 7 last night, they think she may be in slow labour (her due date was 18 June, but this week was put back to 24 June, so a bit early if it is labour). She has had one steroid injenction and is waiting for another one at the...

Ok, so last night i needed a number 2... i sat on the loo and started to do my business, which at the moment is a bit of a "struggle" (sorry, TMI :oops: ). I was "pushing" shall we say, and then i heard an almighty gush of liquid! It was really loud, like a waterfall, but i didn't feel...

I have a question about sleeping once LO is born. At the moment i sleep naked. I always have since about 12 years old, i just can't bear to wear anything in bed, i find it really uncomfortable. Now i have prepared myself that i will have to wear knickers and pads until i stop bleeding...

I have heard that this can help reduce tearing in labour, but need to know... what is it and how do i do it?! (or is it something OH has to do for me? :shock: ) Any tips? Do i need lotion?! :rotfl:

I had a MW appointment yesterday, and when she examined me she discovered baby is breach, although to be fair she's been like that since 20 weeks. She said the baby should have turned by now, so i am going for a scan in 3 weeks time to check if she has turned, and if she hasn't the MW said...

this is a test to see if i can upload a pic from photobucket... [/img]

Does anyone know what the 28 weeks blood test is for? Honestly, my MWs are all pretty useless, they never tell me anything. I had bloods at 28 weeks, and i asked what they were for, but no-one ever told me. I haven't heard anything, so i am assuming everything is ok, lol, but i don't even...

Hello ladies i am a little miffed with my hospital...i have been asking about antenatal classes for MONTHS now, and the only response i ever get is "we'll put your name on the list". Every week or so i call and ask when they will be taking place, and am i on the list and they always say...
