Sorry everyone but my midwife has just been round and reckons I have made her look a plonker!!!

Luckily she is a friend!
Blood pressure back down to 120/70 and nad in the urine so all ok again. Still a breech and a cephalic and she says she has no idea and not going to say a word now as already been proved wrong! Head still engaged and is back towards my spine. Other one is wriggling around still and fundus is 43cm! Lovely
If not here before next thursday then my hospital look at induction - deep joy

She says she thinks me waters will just break.

Don't be alarmed if I am quiet today - my mother is over shortly.
Love to all
Tracey

Thanks Alison

Sure it's not all these hormones and you just like men running round building things and then you making them cups of tea?

Please take care - you are not to have baby before me!

Love

Oh Tracey,
what an excitement! I was holding my breath reading you last postings hoping I did not miss your big event while I was on my short escape in France! I am so excited for you, it's almost as if it's my turn! But well done to keep them in for 37 weeks, that's the example I want to follow! I can understand you don't feel ready, I am getting a bit nervous just thinking about the birth and all, but after all you've been through you'll cope just brilliantly and have your little girls in your arms safe and sound. I will be keeping my fingers crossed for you every day now!
lots of love,
juliana
PS I had a lovely time in France and did lots of walking, although DP siad he was relieved to haev brought me back to give birth here (no intention to do this yet of course, but we had one or two scary moments which convinced us even car travel is finished for now)

Sorry everyone but looks as if only a week maximum if they are inducing me - or maybe a couple of days after that - who knows?

Love
Tracey

Blimey mate,

I go away for a few days and all this happens. Glad you decided to wait until I got back - hee-hee.

Hope you are taking it easy...not be long now!

Hi Tracey,

Just checking in to see if you're a mum yet. Making us wait in suspence though....

Good luck and I can't wait to here the good news. I'm madly still trying to see someone. A midwife, consultant, fortune teller anyone will do. The midwife says I am a high risk pregnancy and i need to go through the hospital. the hospital says I should be cared for by the midwife and just give birth at the hospital (mind you she was just the medical records woman). Hopefully my midwife will sort it. I just want a scan to see everything is ok.

Hello all

Still here and 37 wks today - yikes. As all who know me 37 wks is the magic marker I always wanted to get to.
Wibbs - milking it -

I don't think so

Everyone is somewhat suprised!

Shellie - don't worry all twin or multiple pg's are called high risk - nothing to worry about except you get more attention and more scans. Hope you get someone sorted out though!

Juliana - glad you had a good time - hang in there - you can do it. I took Gabbie for a long walk today - still done that every day so don't worry or should I say tell DP not to worry so much.

Well the Nik story - may as well tell you as she is swapping numbers and internet etc. My dh was feeding Florence whilst we were in the pub and then was not winding her much so when his food arrived I took her and winded her until she brought up her wind and could continue with her bottle. Nik's food had arrived and mine was on it's way so I continued feeding her. Mine then arrived - Florence took another few minutes and then needed winding again - I started off gently and then moved her to my shoulder as she likes it there. Then back down to my knee sitting. I was on the end facing Nik and DH on my right - Florence then projectile vomited milk - it was like Moby Dick and Come Dancing (get it

) Anyway she missed all the food - goodness knows how and it went all down my legs - I had a skirt on (nik's actually!

) and went all in my shoes and all over the carpet. I felt most upset and Nik was worried about my shoes! Later on I fed her again as she was hungry and made sure not to move her at all - she was fine and fell asleep on me - hope I redeemed myself.
Don;t worry all if I am quiet over the weekend - don't spend much time on here when dh here.
Love
Tracey

Wow Tracey - any time now...When I first became pregnant in March, you were in your 17th week....(I am now in my 20th) and time does go by so quickly - especially when you have the support from this message board - you help get through days and concerns...

Good luck! I can't wait to hear the news!!!
xo,
Denise

Tracey S · Post by **Tracey S** » Fri Jul 23, 2004 1:57 pm

Denise

Yes I remember - I had just got through my 16 wk scan which was a massive one for us as you can imagine after Oliver.............

Your time will fly Denise and I hope these two give me time to watch you go through the weeks to come and then the news.....

How are you feeling?

I am so lucky to have all these special people that leave me messages and get excited. I had an email from Jules the other day to say how excited she was and leaves her phone on even when she is teaching - how lovely is that!

Love
Tracey

Hi Tracey,

I'm just now checking in after several days off. I thought when I got to the end of this thread I would find that you had your babies, instead I find you still hanging in there. I better not take a day off again, I don't want to miss the big announcement when the precious ones arrive.

I'm very excited for you. I hope you enjoy the experience as much as I did.

Anxiously awaiting...
Love, Val and Sydney xxx

Tracey S · Post by **Tracey S** » Fri Jul 23, 2004 3:37 pm

Hello Val and Sydney

How are you both? Sorry Val - nightmare isn't it this waiting. I hope I enjoy the experience as much as you did too

Hugs to you both
Love
Tracey
