So just for fun, what were you doing and what had you been doing in the days leading up to when you went into labour? Oh and how far along were you? What were your symptoms etc? :)
@catherineln25 That's really shit, so sorry you have to deal with that. Your a strong woman x
I have Addisons disease @megz so pain is a big part of my everyday life. I'd rather go through labour than one of my crisis's. Labour is a lot less painful! X
@catherineln25 Wow that's an amazing story! I'd be so happy if mine happened like that :) haha, you must be one tough cookie if you were 8cm dilated and didn't even know!!
I'd gone out for a meal with my other half I was 38 weeks.. we went to bed nice and early and I woke up with bad back pain I thought 'there's no way these are contractions' so I just got in the bath at 5am as it was uncomfortable.. at 5pm they were getting worse and I was still adamant it was just braxton hicks but my midwife said she would check me over. I felt fine though my waters hadn't broken and I'd never experienced braxton hicks before so just presumed that's what it was. When I got to the hospital I found out I was 8cm dilated 😮 they had to pop my waters and she arrived a couple of hours later! X
@mummagordon Omg, she clearly wanted to be here. My mum has 2 holes in her heart too, she must be a strong one x
Thanks babes she was 5 an half weeks early weighing 4.10 and had a hole in heart but she is fit and healthy xxxx
Sorry tmi lol With my first I started having contractions during sex
With second I stood up to go toilet and felt a gush I looked down and I'd lost so much blood sat on toilet my plecenta fell out in loo my mum took me hospital were bubba's heart stopped I had emergency c-section they were able to resuscitate her x I'll leave there to long for all hehe
I couldnt sleep so me and oh went for a drive till like 1am ish i think,(i was driving) went to bed and finally fell asleep, woke up at 5am with strong urge to pee, stood up and waters broke so just stood there in complete shock lol i was two days overdue when they broke but four days overdue before she arrived. Id literally done nothing for a week leading up to as i struggled to walk, though i did go food shopping the day before 😀
Second pregnancy, I woke up around 1/2am with lower back pain. Got up to go to the bathroom & my waters broke. Hadn't done anything too exciting. We'd gone for a long walk I think & I had really bad lightening crotch 😂
I was over due and was desperate to just get his baby out 😂 pacing up and down the house like a maniac, eating my body weight in pineapple and bouncing up and down on the ball like a hyperactive kid 😂
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
AF due 29th, anyone else?
Hi all AF is due 29th Sept for me feels like forever away. Has anyone tested yet or when do you plan on testing x

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
@megz I think the hardest bit is having a crisis and poppy having a stroppy wingy day! 😐🔫 x
