Eeek! My best friend is having her baby today!!!

[Mug-ys mumma]

Oh I'm so excited!!! and a little scared for her!!

She's six weeks early, her waters ruptured yesterday and she lost a lot of fluid, they kept her in hospital over night for observation and found this morning that there was meconium so have whisked her to the delivery suite!!

She is 3cm dialated and they have said if she doesn't start to do it on her own in the next couple of hours they will induce her....

Apparently the scan yesterday showed that the baby is about 5lbs so hopefully everything should go smoothly...I'M SO ANXIOUS!!!!

Fingers crossed please for an easy one!!!

Good Luck to her! I sounds like she will be fine along with the baby, 5lbs is pretty darn good for 6 weeks early. I see as little as 3 lbs and it is amazing how well they do.

Awww congrats to your friend!!! Is she having a boy or girl? I am sure with all the technology baby will be fine

 

[Mug-ys mumma]

She doesn't know what she's having...to find out over here you have to have a 3D scan and pay £80! So she opted for the surprise!!

Will let you know as soon as I find out.

Wow!! What a great surprise! I always love that people can do that! Me having 5 girls I had to know weather it was another girl or possibly a boy. I guess I should have been surprised I might of ended up with a boy ehh?

WOW 5 girls we have 1 girl who is almost 12, and I can not imagine A house with 5 girls in the morning once they hit the teen years

 

[Mug-ys mumma]

5 girls!!! Wow!!! I currently have none...apart from the 80 14-16 years old i look after every day at work

She just text me to say they've put her on a drip now to speed things up so hopefully not too much longer (!)

Oh my goodness! 6weeks early! Ohhh atleast it will be a little baby to push out! Hope everything goes ok for her and the little one. Does she know if it's a boy or girl? Keep us updated.

 

[Sam lewis]

Oh sorry just read it properly! It's good she doesn't know! It makes it a surprise. My boyf wants to find out at my 20week scan but I won't let him! It isn't always right and I'd rather have a surprise!

 

[Mug-ys mumma]

SHE'S HAD A LITTLE BOY!!!!:Sweet-angel::Sweet-angel::Sweet-angel:

She had an epidural at 6pm and had the baby at 8;40pm...he's in the special care unit at the moment because of being prem but otherwise him and mum are doing well.

Need to go buy stuff now! Am glad it's a boy, I have three nephews and now where I am with boys!! Hasn't decided on a name yet but likes Sidney...Her surname is Scotts...but that may change yet!

Will post pics when I get to meet him.

If my second was A boy I would probably have more! I think 1 girl is harder then 7 boys:Laugh:

 

[Mug-ys mumma]

Glad all went well! Congrats to her ! What did he weigh?

I don't know the weight yet, she said hey was taken straight to the special care baby unit, but i'll post as soon as i find out.

Congrats to your friend!! I am glad that everything went well. Hoping that the little guy gets big and strong real soon so he can come out of there and get loved on!!

 

[Mews2much]

Congrats to your friend!!!!
I wanted kids but it never happened.
We also thought about adoption.

 

[Mug-ys mumma]

I passed on all your congrats and she says thank you!

Have spoken to her this morning and mum and baby are doing fine. He weighed 5.5lbs, which is pretty good considering being 6 weeks early...i think she's almost glad she didn't go full term

He's still in special baby care but is now breathing on his own so hopefully won't be there too long.

It looks like he will be named Fred now...bless him! Little Freddy Scotts!

[TanyaT]

[gizmo6370]

Glad to hear that they are doing fine
Hopefully they can go home soon

Welcome to the world little Fred!
