I'm off today for a CTG and membrane sweep. Hopefully that will stir things up a bit and I'll go into labour. Otherwise... the dreaded induction word has been mentioned, so no doubt we'll be discussing that today.
Yesterday we went down to Glenbrook Vintage Railway and had a lovely afternoon riding the train etc. DS got spoiled by his Nan & Pop by getting some more Thomas the Tank Engine stuff for his collection. Afterwards we popped into Wrights Water Gardens for a look. We were a bit early for some of the lilies, and the lotuses weren't out yet, but it was a pleasant walk around.
Just for fun
If anyone wants to make some guesses about the arrival date & weight of the baby I will RAK the nearest correct guess with some cards I've been making while waiting! :-)
So, leave your guesses in the comments and I'll be in contact with the winner once the event has occurred!
Edited to add: The appt went well and baby seems fine in there. We have another appt for Friday if there is no delivery beforehand; I'll see the specialist that day too regarding induction.
Edit 2: Still nothing happening as of 3.41pm Thursday 4th! Dunno if you girls want to keep guessing or not ;-)
Edit 3: Okay - saw the midwife again this morning Friday 5th and had a scan to see if all is well. Which it is and best news is that baby is facing the right way around! I'm so glad! I have been doing lots of walking and last night had 2 noticeable contractions. This morning I experienced what they call a "show" so something is happening at long last. If I don't deliver this weekend I will be induced on Monday morning at 8am.
oh I suck at this game!! but okay ummmmmm 6 pounds and 3 ounces and due 5 Jan. Hoe all goes well today Penny.
ReplyDeleteOkay, here's my guess! 9 lbs, 3 oz and tomorrow night - Jan. 3rd. Blessings, and I hope it's a smooth (and imminent) delivery!
ReplyDeleteNo ideas on either score, but here's wishing you a safe delivery!!
ReplyDeleteI don't really know what I am talking about -- but I reckon it will be Jan 5, about 8 pounds 11 ounces. Happy New Year, and a safe and smooth delivery.
ReplyDeletei'm guessing Jan. 4 and 8 lbs, 2 oz.
ReplyDeletehope you don't have to wait much longer to meet the wee one. :)
sounds like a fun day w/ ds and the grandparents. :)

Induction - ugh - hope it doesn't come to that. Hope all goes well and baby gets a move on. I'm not guessing because I am totally hopeless!
ReplyDeleteHmmm...Penny, you had better be in labor by now! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing January 5th, 8 lbs. 10 oz.
I bet DS loved the train!
ReplyDeleteJan 6 7lb 1oz
Hope all goes well
I'm no good at this game but I'll guess that the baby will be born early Thursday 1/4 at 6:50 p.m. and weigh 7 lbs 11 oz.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on a safe and smooth delivery!
If it's not already born... 5th January, 8lb 2oz
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Penny
all the best Penny (and family) ... I'm not guessing because I am Totally Ignorant about birthweights, but here's hoping it all goes well and the new baby is safely in your arms ... sooner rather than later.
ReplyDeleteHappy new year to you all.
Hmmn...I've been checking here daily now for news! I have a feeling you're very busy right now. :) I hope all is going well, Penny.
