I thought I would start this thread! Seeing as half of the babies have now arrived!

Shall we stick to the pregnancy thread, until all the babies have arrived!!

I can't wait to be on this thread

Love Emily x x

Congrats to all July mummies, welcome to the wonderful world of parenting!

Hooray, someone got round to starting the thread! To be fair, our little sweetheart is keeping us very busy!

hi girls have put my birth stoty on the pregnancy thread

hey all, just thought i'd better post on here. i've noticed we are all loitering on the pregnancy forum waiting for the remaining few to give birth! hurry up mummies to be! also to add that the midwife gave erin her final weigh in before the health visitors take over her care, and she is now 8lb 14oz. Also, I was down to 11st 8.5lb yesterday when I weighed myself, and I'm really happy! My tummy is going down nicely as I have been dong the physio exercises the hospital gave me for the last few days, and my lumpy bit at the bottom seems to be shrinking... yay!!!

congrats all july mummies and come on mummies to be!!

Ooooh, a new thread! I love it when someone starts a new "babys born in" thread, its so exciting!

Congratulations to all of you on the birth of your beautiful babys - welcome to the parenting thread!

hi all, thought i would bump this up for new mummies, when they get time to post!

Just bumping this up, because I think that is all the babies here now!! All we need is time to post.x

come on girls its time to leave the pregnancy thread

just thought i would put a quick reply up on jacob and i

we are doing really well and was discharged from the midwife on friday when jake was 11 days and he now weighs 7LB 14 so has put on 10oz in 11 days which is grest as he is breastfeeding well just a bit annoyed as i had got everything for bottle as i was sure i wouldnot be able to even got 4 tubs of cow and gate nevermind they have a long date on them on my weight side i now have one pound to go to my pre pregnancy weight but alot more to my ideal weight but will get there one day

Emma it sounds like Jacob is doing really well. Daniel was weighed by the HV last week and was a healthy 7lb 1oz so has done well in his 2 weeks.
He is still quite a good baby but I am finding it difficult with still having the builders here, they have been here for 13 weeks now...we can't go upstairs during the day so we are couped up downstairs, Emily can't play in her bedroom and everyday after they go I have to start cleaning again....I think they are going to drive me MAD! Oh and DH went away for the weekend. Anyway enough about me, I hope all the other July mummies are ok, even if tired. Where are all the piccies?

hi ladies and babies - welcome to parenting!

loved hearing your birth stories (oh yes i am a thread stalker addict!)

congratulations all of you x x

hi all, well i've resorted to using a baby carrier when she's screaming, as the movement as i do the housework etc makes erin bring up her wind and puts her to sleep, but its like having a bump back in a different place! certainly is interesting...hope all mummies are ok, looking forward to the pics, although helen, i think me and you were very quick off the mark with ours! has anyone heard from meg? hope her labour isn't still going!

Tigger, it sounds like Erin has found her lungs just like Daniel has...I knew it was ony a matter of time. Then when they are sleeping, do you do the housework or try and catch 40 winks, then before I know it its time to pick Emily up. DH has gone back to work today, but then he went away for 3 days so used to coping on my own (although not very well). Oh my god, all I seem to do is moan at the moment!!!

Anyway, hope everyone else is ok, and hopefully Meg has some news for us???

Agggghhhhh
I cant believe we have finally made it onto the parenting thread
It seems so strange not being on the pregnancy thread anymore!

All is going well for us.
We are even managing to get some sleep

Tom is doing very well indeed.

BF is going well, although I am not always 100% sure about positions. Anyone know of any good videos or resources to access to help??
I spoke with the MW about it this morning, but just need to reassure myself a little more.
There is no problems with him feeding - we have LOADS of filled nappies!

Congratulations to Little and Anna

Fingers crossed for Meg.

Take care and I will log on again soon.
Off to try and find some resources on BF!!!

Love Emily x x
