Thanks very much, thats nice of you,, i didn`t plan a large family but i don`t believe in abortions and i think whats meant to be is meant to be,, it really is lovely having so many children around, yes it can be hard sometimes but we all much in as a family and are close..
well you certainly have a good attitude towards labour an dif you do the mind over matter it helps, rememrb its natural and the more your body adn the baby work together naturally the bettter.
I don`t normally have pain relief and i don`t scream and shout,i think it helps if you can be calm etc, my best delivery was in the car so natural and no midwifes telling me what to do ,lol,, it happened so natrually it was lovely.. less pain as bbay arrived too compared to when the midwife tells you to push. i had homebirth with last baby andas i knew more of my rights i was in control more too,midwife had to ask to do anything, i am homebirthing this time too but i would say to you that each pregnancy is diffent so is each labour ,i am luckt too as my longest labour was 5 hours 15 mins and quickest 26 mins, so that helps, that doesn`t mean it don`t hurt cos it does just like any other women,i start getting strong contractions very suddenly and they are only like between 2-5 mins apart so i have to act fast.. in other countries its differnt like you say as your choices are not the same which is a shame, but i am sure with your attitude you`ll be fine.. good luck... wub

hey, how have you been doing? im like really bored recently since i stay home all day. plus we live in this tiny apartment...were planning to move in two weeks but until then i cant set up anything for the baby. so frustrating!

mazariff ,, your worrying too much.relax girl.. everyone is different.. most of my bbaies were carried low but they mostly were breecdh or trnavers til near the end before turning head down..just ebcause ppl say the baby should be a certain way doesn`t mean that it won`t happen there still is plenty of time.. this baby moves but i think he is head down mostly.. as he has lots of space to move due to prev pregnancies... the last baby was showing as breech a few hours before i actually gave birth to her, as i had a mw check me and she said baby was breech... she was born head down.. best to relax and if you really are wanting th ebaby to move lie on your left side in bed and i have heard that heand and feet on floor rocking can get baby into position i have not tried htis but heard it can move abby... anywya don`t worry about this as htere still is time..good luck

Hi mama's! Well, I'm back from a wonderful anniversary trip with my hubby. We had a great time and did a lot of antiquing. I walked way too much and am hurting...but it was worth it! We got an old table that we will convert into an island for our farmhouse, I love it!

I've been losing my mucous plug over the past few days...I am so excited, she will be here in no time! I told some of you already, but Matt decided to change our girl's name AGAIN...she will be Maggie Elyse. We both love it and think it's perfect for her. I looked high and low for baby stuff on our trip. I decided to get the 'Shabby Chic' baby bedding from Target. We have chosen a white Jenny Lind crib. I am now just trying to decide between getting a car seat cover ($56) to go over our boy's car seat, or get a car seat stroller combo from Target ($130). Which do you ladies think I should choose? I am going to pass on the Peanut Shell baby sling, because I don't think it will be used long enought o justify the $65 price. We want to make wise purchases since this is our last baby and we won't be reusing anything.

We have news on our house! The Switzerland couple is hopefully wanting to make an offer, and the other couple is still waiting for their insurance money from their house fire, once they get it they said they are buying our house. So, now it's a matter of who offers what and when...until then, we continue to wait. Both couples are cash buyers, so that means a quick sale. I just want this to go fast now, we have done enough waiting.

Well, now that I'm back, write to me! I missed you!

oh god, we really sound alike!! im the oldest in my family and my brother and sister are way younger than me. ive always helped my mom with tons of housework from when i was very young...cooking dinner for the family by myself from age 11 until i left home, laundry and ironing...and my sister! shes nine years younger than me amd i was the one changing her diapers and patting her to sleep every night. my mom insisted it was the only way she could sleep and it became a habit until she was three. the weird thing is when my son was born my mom was all "dont spoil him, it will become a habit" when i would soothe him to sleep. um, hello? anyway, my mom would criticize about everything...why wasnt my sister asleep yet, why is she crying, the dinner is plain, theres no tea on the table. she made me feel like i couldnt do anything right. and she could never be wrong. stupid example is once when i was like 13 in my bedroom i was bent over at the waist brushing out my hair and i straightened back up right as my mom walked in. she was convinced i was doing something bad like hiding something and she wouldnt let it go. stupid right? and like your sister mine has always been needy and my mom paid alot of attention to her. shes 11 now and can barely wash her own hair...anyway...whenever i see or talk to my mom i get that cant do anything right feeling and im sick of it...im so afraid of becoming like her that six years ago i made a list of all the things she did that made me feel useless and unloved so i dont do the same with my kids. sigh. anyway...i cant imagine being able to wait until the birth to know what it is! how are you going to shop for stuff??

thanks for your message...my partner knows some of the staff at the hospital we are planning to have the baby at so i am thinking about just calling my mother after the babys born and having the staff tell her the labor was really quick and there was no time to call her. my last labor was horribly long and i was the talk of the hospital (even when i went back for my one month checkup). everyone was really understanding except my mom who kept sending my husband out to buy her snacks inbetween saying shed gone through labor three times and couldnt i keep the noise level down. good luck with your mother as well...its nice to know im not alone. do you know what youre having yet?

Oh, good that you don't have endo...I've had it for 10 years and wondered if there was a connection to the SPD. I am exactly like you with the SPD, it's worse in the morning and at night.

Still no offer on the house, we are hoping to hear from one of the buyers soon, I'll let you know when we get an offer!

Judesmama - Tuesday, 29 July
Hi! I know that you have SPD but I was wondering if you also have endometriosis? I have both and am finding many others who do, as well. Just want to know if there is a connection...

Judesmama - Friday, 25 July
Well, mama's...still no word of an offer on our house It's getting down to the wire. If we got an offer today, it's about 30 days to closing and I've got just 4 1/2 weeks until I expect baby to come, so we are running out of time. I appreciate all of your thoughts and prayers. I will let you know if we hear anything. Send lots of moving dust our way!

I'm gonna go get ready for a date with my hubby! I gave myself a pedi, now I have pretty fuschia tootsies...too bad my feet are so swollen! Hope you all are feeling good...give those babies some love for me TTYS!!!

mumsie26 - Sunday, 20 July
hi there you say your fearing labour, just to say its a natural thing our bodies cope well with and hte more relaxed you are the better, it does hurt but once you have your baby in your arms you will quickly foget it so it don`t last that long.. good luck an dthink posotively it helps..

mamacas26 - Friday, 18 July
Do not worry about tearing or an episiotomy...I have had two children. One weighed 6 lbs 4 oz and the other weighed 9 lb 12 oz...I did not tear with either and I did not need an episiotomy. In fact, with both I requested that they keep the scissors away! Most women can stretch to accomodate the baby...it's the times when they do not that you hear about it! So no fear! You don't have to worry about it until the time comes and I'm sure then you'll just want the baby out...good luck!

Judesmama - Wednesday, 16 July
Oh no OUCH!!! Get better soon! How horrible to have to work with all the pain. SPD doesn't have anything to do with needing a c-section, so you don't need to worry about that. The one thing that I have found I needed was an epidural, because after months of this pain I have no strength to push a baby out feeling the full pain of it. The epidural just relaxes all of those joints and muscles that have been hurting for so long! I pushed for 5 min. with the epidural...so nice!

Judesmama - Wednesday, 16 July
Hi! Just wondering how you are feeling today? I'm very sore. I've been getting a lot of contractions with pressure, too. Hope you are doing well and staying cool!

aejh143 - Monday, 14 July
doing great! I'm so big I can't believe I'll be able to stretch any more...
I feel completely better too. I don't really let myself feel guilty for the feelings, I honestly know they weren't me in my right mind. I know how emotional I was back then was a combination of the stress and the hormones. Now that I'm not so emotional, I am really excited and I want to see him!! I figure that's the real me... the other emotions were me just adjusting. So no worries! I've heard from other people those feelings are normal and I'm sticking to that!! haha
Hope everything is going well...
