Pregnancy Off Topic #5 “Are men ok??”

@Laughalong hope it’s all going well 💖 xx

It’s been a very slow start, we got here at 5pm yesterday for our slot to be told they can’t actually start us as the delivery suite was full so if the gel was to work quickly they’d not actually be able to deal with us. After a sleepless night (which I’m sure could have been at home) they’ve done it at 6:30am this morning! It feels super crampy now and tight so definitely feels like at least something is happening. Hopefully doesn’t take all three rounds.

Will let you know when he finally arrives! Thank you for asking xx

Oh bless you, that’s frustrating that they still kept you in when you could have had a more restful sleep at home. Glad you’ve had it done now though and it seems like things are moving, hopefully won’t be too long until he’s in your arms xx
 
@littlepup thank you for your advice the other day, I think the first wake had just been noise/comfort. We’ve had 3 nights of a longer first sleep 🤞🏻

@Laughalong have been thinking of you. Hope it’s all going okay ❤
Aw that’s brill!
I don’t know if it applies to tiny babies but they say the key to sleep is then being able to link their sleep cycles, self settle back off when there drifting from one to the next. My oldest rarely could after 4mth regression and we’d get 4-7 wakes a night for the first few years so I’m 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 this time.

Anyone else’s little one get really clammy little hands and feet? I don’t remember it with oldest but it was winter/spring.

@Laughalong hope everything is going well x
 
Hoping coffee can help me stay awake 😂 how are you?

I’m fasting ! i’m doing the 16:8 fast and I’ve done it now for a week so I don’t eat from 8pm til 12pm next day, I weighed myself this morning and I’ve lost 3lb. I have no idea if that’s impressive or not 🤣 I’ve been exercising as well, and getting my 10k steps a day ! But the point of this post is i’m SO excited for 12pm cos there’s an ice cold red bull in the fridge

BUT my fella actually bought me a red bull last night for today, but I’d already bought myself one cos you know, i deserve it 😂 So there’s technically 2 red bulls in the fridge but I’m telling myself that’s not good to drink two 🤣

Anyway yeah I’m good sorry for the life story 😂

3lb sounds dead impressive in a week. I couldn't do that fasting though! Do you just drink water for those 16 hours or something?
 
Well done @watermelon sugar thats impressive! Hope you enjoyed your red bull

Happy anniversary @Lioness1

Hope @Laughalong is enjoying her baby cuddles 👶🏻 🥰

I’ve had the most stressful afternoon ever. Went for a walk for my family, it’s a 3.5 mile loop and you can’t cut through anywhere to make it shorter because it’s around water. About 1.5 mile in nubs started crying, wouldn’t settle. My dad carried him for a bit and he calmed down but then got too hot so more crying. Came across a herd of horses - nubs screams his head off, horses look terrified, works himself up so much that he’s now roasting hot so I had to strip him to his nappy on the side of the road and let him just chill for a bit. Horses start surrounding us. Have to try and get away from them with nubs screaming, refusing to go in his pram, getting too hot from being held etc, everyone fussing over him trying to settle him just making him worse. Finally got him to sleep. Then in the car home couldn’t find his dummy, he’s hungry cus it took us so long to do the walk I’d run out of bottles, sister was driving and couldn’t stop anywhere (country lanes) for me to try and get a dummy out of the bag in the boot so I’m leaning in to the back while she’s driving trying to get one. Can’t find one. Trying everything to amuse him but he’s hungry so screaming. 2 minutes from home he fell asleep.

Never again 🙃
