@Slinky86 im so glad you’re starting to feel better now! And that’s so exciting y’all are having another boy 😊 I won’t have my scan until March 11th, so I’m trying to be as patient as I can while we wait!
@linzimc88 and congrats on having another boy as well! 😀
Hey everyone, it's been very quiet here. How's everyone getting on in their last trimester? How are you all feeling?
I started my maternity leave early this time around, didn't want to stress and 24 hour long shifts anymore haha We're having a little girl, had a private scan last week and baby was measuring 4lbs 6 at 33 weeks. I'm tired, getting a bit uncomfortable, starting to pee more often and suffer from piles again 🤦♀️While running after a 2 year old 😂 But not long to go!
Aw I hope you're not waiting much longer! Jasper came 2 days early.
I honestly couldn't have asked for a better birth. I did a hypnobirthing course and it helped so much. I laboured at home then went to the hospital when contractions got super intense. He was born at 0024 and we were home by 6pm! 😁 Meet Jasper 😍
I had my little boy on 2nd July, induced 9 days early. Wasn't quite as smooth sailing as yours, unfortunately he decided to be a little monkey and keep changing his position so it resulted in a c-section. Was born at 11:42pm weighing 6lb 8oz called him Jesse Charlie.
We're finally able to join Lizzie arrived on the 18th of July at 10:06, weighing 7lbs 9oz after being 8 days overdue. I was pushing for 2 minutes, she was born 6 minutes after my waters broke haha Unfortunately there was meconium in my waters but she was fine and so was I and we were able to come home on the same day She feeds like a champion and is already over her birth weight My son adores her and we couldn't be happier ❤️
My little girl is now 10 days old and weighed 8lb and for the first week everything went so well and she fed every 4 hours through the night, I’m worried now that she’s not bringing enough wind up as she sometimes seems uncomfortable and goes red in the face a lot and has been awake a lot more during the day which is unusual for her. How do I know if it’s the milk I am using? I’m using the cow and gate breast milk substitute and she usually has 3oz a feed but sometimes I can’t tell if she’s still hungry or still has wind
@Lolo6 firstly congratulations. Secondly we've got a similar situation with Jesse. He's feeding no problem but doesn't bring up much wind, then seems really uncomfortable like he's in pain. We're also using cow and gate formula, and as of yesterday we introduced cow and gate Reflux milk. He's on 6oz feeds, so we're using 4 scoops regular formula and 2 scoops of Reflux per feed as well as infacol before each feed. So far it seems to be really helping, he's barely bringing up any milk now, easier to wind and settling straight back to sleep after each feed. Hope you manage to find something to help too x

Had my anomaly scan yesterday and found out we're having another boy! We're very excited.
Anyone else know what they're having?
So pleased for you, I had my scan yesterday too and had it confirmed that we're expecting our third little boy 💙 x

How was your experience?
I'm 3 days overdue, I was due last Saturday and just praying that I pop soon as I'm so fed up

I just had a sweep this afternoon, hoping it'll bring labour on, 40+5 today and so hot and bothered!
Really hope it's not too long for you @Cloudlover, best wishes! Can't wait to hear the news!
