Older Mums to be chat

Yay Choco. Great to see Miss Bliss is doing well. I had sunroof experience with DS (emergency as he was stuck) and will have one this time too. Good luck for the 4th. Not long to go now!!

i love the name Miss Bliss as well - think she will be stuck with this nickname for life!

my mother jokingly called my belly bliss after my 7wk scan as my pregnancy was making so many people happy - and it stuck

feels strange thinking this time next week I will be in hospital with my baby in my arms - still doesn't feel real!

yes my wee bliss baby arrived safely a week ago today - scary to think it's only a week I feel like she has always been here!

Evie is everything I could want and so so much more.

Congrats Choco, she looks gorgeous, love the name too!!

Hi Ladies

It's been ages since I checked in here - and can't believe some of you are on the last few weeks of your pregnancies. Am so missing my bump, although loving being a mum, can you believe she is now 5 weeks old!!!

Hope everyone is doing well.

Hugs

Hi Choco, well done! I am so looking forward to the end of the school year so I can relax and look forward to our little girl arriving end of Jan/beg of Feb. I'm excited about having another scan in little over a week which was unexpected. MW said it's because I had CS last time and I'm probably going for one again this time the obstetrician wants to see a new scan. YAY. Good luck for all those getting towards the end of your pregnancy.

Hi everyone, just checking in, got date yesterday for CS, 15th December, yay, just 5 days short of EDD. And I'm having her in Tauranga, not Waikato (bit of disaster there, saw OB there the other wk, but hated the ward, hospital etc, so antiquated so got changed to Tga. It works out better anyway cos Dad lives there and DH and DD can stay there and take 5mins to visit me instead of 1hr to Hamilton. With only 2wks to go still got lists running through my head of things to do, guess it doesn't help having Christmas up soon either. But what a cool present!

Hope everyone is fit and well.

Oh, another thing that was laughable bout Waikato OB visit. A large portion of visit was taken up by her "talk" about getting my tubes tied, seems a big issue, I guess cos of age (43). MW only asked me once and that was that, but even tho I was quite precise with my answer "thanks but no thanks" OB went on and on about it, then when the penny dropped I wasn't interested, she carried on about what sort of contraception I was going to use afterwards. I couldn't believe it, wanted to tell her where to stick it and that it was none of her business, lets just get this little puppy out first, but wow she was insistent, guessing again that it was age related and maybe she found it hard to believe that it wouldn't be a tragedy if I did fall PG again, even tho not planning on it. She would have been about 10yrs younger than me or more. I have not had any issues with either PG (first one at 39) compared to lots of ladies I know who are much younger. I wholeheartedly believe that its more health related than age related. But there you go, can't change everyones mind I guess. Had anyone else had any funny/annoying PG/age related stories this time?

Wow Choco, I can't believe its been 3mths for you, hope all is well with you and little Evelyn, lovely piccie by the way.

And yeah ladies where are you all at, love to hear from you.

Things are great with us, my little poppet is powering along, loves the boobie and sleeps an awful lot so mummy hasn't been deprived of any sleepless nights yet, love that! And BF has been a breeze this time round, cos my boobs are "organised" so the lactation consultant told me, lol, thats cos I was still BF my DD1.
