Spring Babies

[Rittie2000]

Hi girls,

Wow, everyone's so close now I can't wait to hear the news of the next baby born

Anna, you poor thing. And I thought I was the only muppet who has builders running around the house doing her head in. So sorry about your bathroom situation. At least I never lost use of that. When is it due to finish? My builders are just about done now but we are going through the 'snagging list' with them on Monday. Still a lot of niggly bits to sort out but overall its more or less there. My husband was such a good boy this weekend he's managed to remove the carpet and repair a few floorboards in the nursery (things he's never done before so I'm really impressed) and a friend came with us to finalise the selection of paint colours. Once the plasterer is done next week we'll finally be painting the nursery next weekend. Carpet man is coming on Monday so once flooring is done we're there. At the moment we still have a chance to get the nursery finished before the babies arrive.

I'm getting very uncomfortable and unable to do much with carrying so much babies. I'm not sure my body will last much longer even though we too are aiming for 37-38 weeks. The appointment with the NHS doctor took 3 mins in total and he just said evereything looks good, come back in 2 weeks and refused to book me in for a delivery date or show any interest in my Moby-like state. Much say I was feeling dissappointed as I thought I'd be given a target date by now.

Good luck with everything girls. Keep the posts coming.

Lotsa of love
Rittie

This was my post on a new thread but wanted to ensure you all saw it!

My sisters on the "Spring Babies" thread know that I was confident that I would NOT be the first to deliver and that I was keeping these boys in until 37 weeks. Well, they had other plans....
On Thursday, 03/22, we welcomed our fraternal twin boys into our family at 34 weeks, 1 day gestation.
Xavier Christian weighed in at 4 pounds, 6 ounces!
Isaiah James weighed in at 4 pounds, 11 ounces!
I was released from the hospital today after a 4 day c-section stay. Both of my boys remain in the hospital but are doing very well.
That's my update...hope the rest of you can make it longer than we did!

CONGRATS DIONE! I am so happy for you! You did a great job, those boys are plenty big and strong. You take this time to take care of yourself and get ready to bring those boys home. Keep us posted on how both you and the boys are doing.

Congratulations Dione! I hope you can bring home your boys very soon. I'll send a prayer your way.

Hi Ladies

Sorry I've been awol for a while....but with good reason!

Matthew William was born on Fri 23rd March weighing in at 7lbs 6ozs despite being 3 weeks early. He took us quite by supprise. We were sooooooo not ready. Anyway, we are back home now and couldn't be happier.

Sorry I don't have time for personals today. I am thinking of you all. Congrats to those with their new little bundles and good luck to those with bumps.

Take care

PS My bathroon STILL not finished!!!!

[Lucyluna]

Ahhh!! Anna, you too? Congrats my dear! What a big, healthy boy. He was obviously ready to come out and meet you guys. I hope things are doing well, and you are taking it easy and enjoying Matthew. Keep us posted when you have a free moment.

Hi Ladies, me again. I forgot that when I logged on earlier I was going to tell you about my appointment yesterday.

I had a growth scan to make sure she is doing ok and all is well. The high blood pressure is not affecting her so far. YAY! Her head measured a couple of weeks ahead and her legs measured a couple of weeks behind. So, she has a big, smart brain and her mom's short legs! She is already weighing 5lbs and 7oz too, with 5 weeks to go. We also had a non stress test and things are going perfectly.

That's about it here. I am so excited for all of you that have started popping out your little ones. Hopefully things are going well for the rest of you and I hope to keep hearing from you all!

Anna!

What fantastic news!!!!! Am so pleased for you! In fact I have goose bumps just thinking about it! I hope all is well with you and look forward to hearing updates whenever you can (although time is no longer you're own!!)

I CANNOT believe you survived without a loo - I was constantly on the loo for the last 3 weeks of my pregnancy! You're a hero!

Take care!

Anna, congratulations on your new baby boy! If I'd have known you were coming one day behind me, I would have held my boys in another day so not to be the first
Who's next? Any volunteers!
Have a great weekend,
Dione

Hi everyone, me again. I am starting to think you have all had your babies since no one is posting! Anna and Dione, how are things going with your little ones? Did/will you post us some pictures on Photobucket?

I had an appt. today with the midwife. All is well, but the blood pressure is staying highish. They said I may be induced as early as next week when I am considered full term, but we will have to evaluate how I am doing next week. So, I could be next! I'm hoping we can wait and let things happen naturally, but I'll keep you all posted. She is wiggling her way into the pelvis. Next visit we will find out if there is any progress on the cervix.

Rittie, Riley... anyone? Do I have a challenger to see who can beat me? I hope you are all doing wonderfully. Take care.

[demi]

Hi gals, I had an appt on monday and the twins are just at 5 lbs each. My doctor thinks I'll deliver sometime during the week of the 16th. Lucy, I hope I don't beat you

37th week would be great to be able to make it to.

By the way, Anna congrats to you as well! Take care of those bellies ladies!

[Rileydee]

Hi ladies,

Allie Kenna was born on March 20th at 4:40 pm weighing 6lbs even and 18 3/4 long. They induced me on 19th in the evening and after laboring through the night and and all day, I only dialated to 4, so c-section. It wasn't nearly as bad as I had imagined. I didn't sleep for the first 2 and half weeks, but learning how to now. She went down to 5lbs 4 oz, so we discovered because of my hormones, My milk didn't come in, so we are bottle feeding, but it is going well. She is now 6lbs 14 oz.

Anna, you were early too!!! Congrats on your baby boy!!

Hope you are all doing great!! Congrats to everyone else!!

[AMck]

Hi Ladies, lots going on....

Many congratulations Rileydee, great news. Glad to see all is OK with you and your new arrival. What a lovely name you have chosen too.

Lucy, here's hoping your little one does some more wriggling and is ready to come out soon.

Dione, how are you? Are your lovely boys still in hospital?

Demi, not long to go now. Hope all goes well.

Rittie, any news yet? Hang in there, it won't be long now. Hugs to you x

Cla, thanks for message. How are you? All is fine with Matthew and I. He is feeding and sleeping like a good 'un! Our little bundle weighed in at 7lbs 6ozs despite being 3 weeks early and now weighs 7 lbs 12ozs....he's a guzzler!

Hello to all here, hope everyone Ok. Take care of those bumps and bundles.

Bye for now
Hugs

Wow so many babies been born already. Congratulations Riley, such a beautiful name. She weighs the same as Ellie now and Ellie's 4 months on Wednesday!

Anna congratulations I'm so happy for you.

Demi you are doing great holding those little ones in there. Fantastic weights.

Lucy I hope all goes well with the induction.

Dione congratulations on the birth of your little boys. Turns out you weren't first after all, Riley was! ( I guess I don't count as Ellie was way way too early). Are your boys home yet?

Looking forward to seeing piccies of all these new little ones.

Hope those of you still to go are doing ok and have a trouble free labour.

Take care

Jo
