oops, pregnant again!!!!

Hi, yes i'm pregnant again should be due around beginning of May with baby no6!

Now with the not so good news.....................The hv is referring Osian to the pediatrition (*sp) cos he isn't putting on enough weight, he is sliding down the chart rather than going up. Not had the appointment through yet but he is fine in himself and doing all the things a 5 month old should do.
He has 4 8oz bottles of cow & gate hungry baby and some baby food/cereal/rusk everyday, goes to bed between 8-9pm depending and sleeps through! So hopefully it's just the way he is and nothing will be wrong, just can't help worry!

    Congratulations and lucky you - I'm trying to convince oh we start trying again!!!

    I wouldn't worry about your lo, we were sent for opposite reason, Amelia is a chunky thinkg and has piled the weight on. As long as your lo is happy, eating, sleeping and doing all the things a 5 month old should be you'll get on just fine.

    Millie came 4 weeks early on the 3rd March! Bit of a surprise but labour was good, only thing was we had to stay in hospital for 5 nights which was horrible as I just wanted to be at home! Hoping for a home birth with no.2 though! How come you were on your own? Sounds a bit scary!

    thanks pumba & lin xx

    mgmummy, glad to hear it went ok for ya! normally with my others i've started with pains in the morning and had them later in the evening, so when i woke with pains with Osian at 6am i got in the bath around 8.30am after taking 2 paracetomol. My oh rushed the kids (2 of them) to the neighbours at about 8.50 to take them to school then about 9.10am my waters went and i new he was guna come then!!! (my others were the same) oh phoned the midwife just before this happened and told them it wasn't immenent but tried phoning back and got no answer, luckily it was cos they were on the way. I gave 2 pushes and he came out in the bath then the midwives arrived about 5-10mins later!!! lol

    I'm hoping they will let me have another home birth this time, it will be my 4th home birth! xxx
