Hi Found this site today (actually looking up about dental pain!) Just thought Id say hi. Im 24 in a cpl of wks and have a Son, Benjamin, he turned 2 in May. I live with my Fiance Mark who is 30. We live in Staffordshire, England, UK. I am 28+4, probably having a c-section due to damage from previous birth. Tore right through to back passage and had probs with bowels, they did a scan of it and it does not look strong enough to withstand another tear. My Son was 9lb 14oz and im only small at 5ft 1in. Also got SPD. Hope eveyone else is getting on ok with their pregnancies and look forward to hearing from you. Laura x

hi and welcome. i'm karen. i'm going to be 38 weeks on monday with my first. sounds like you've been through a lot. that's one of my biggest fears about delivery. congrats on pushing out such a big baby for such a small person!! i'm probably going to have a bigger baby too but i'm hoping i can handle it. i'm not that tiny myself. anyway, welcome.

Hiya All Thanks for your replies Congratulations on your pregnancies. Preggy & Azure777 - Glad to hear that these pregnancies are going well. I understand how you feel, I had 3 miscarriages, but now on 2nd baby (5th Preg) I hope it all continues to go well for you, which I am sure it will. Nicky - We were told this one is a girl but going for a sexing scan this afternoon where we have paid. Want to make sure lol. Just seems unreal having a boy then having a girl, not usually that lucky lol. Karen - Bigger baby didnt actually cause the problem . Was the way he came out lol. So if I had him as a normal delivery should go I bet I would have been able to deliver him lol. Just that his shoulder was in wrong pos. Im sure you will be fine Hollly - Hi, thanks, nice to meet you too, hope to chat to you all more. xxx

Hi Lovely to hear from more people. Went for sexing scan this afternoon and is 100% a girl, gosh im so excited hehe. Would have been glad if a boy but really dont want a lot of kids so am glad I get blessed with one of each. I feel so blessed. After 3 miscarriages never thought I would have one child, let alone one of each. God Ill cry in a min lol. Karisa - Congratulations. Not really picked any names yet. Like some but not going to tell anyone lol. Kirsty - Aww lovely, 2 little boys, i would have been happy with that too, I think brothers or sisters would be lovely. How old is your little boy? Mine is 2 and so adorable at the min, although hard work lol.

my son is going to be 3 on wednesday.. and yes i must agree it is hard work... we are going through potty training right now which he has been doing rilly well with an accident here and there although he still wears a diaper at night to go to bed because he doesn't wake up when he hasta go so that will take a while.

Hey there Laura! Congratulations on your little girl. I was in the same boat with my second pregnancy. I had already had a boy so I really wanted to have a girl. When I went for my ultrasound and they said it was a girl I couldn't believe it. Now I am pregnant for a third time and this time it doesn't matter what I am having because I already have one of each. By the way my name is Shannah I am 29 and married and the mother of two children and I am 17 wks pregnant. My son's name is Liam and he is 11 and my daughter's name is Raina-Skye and she is turning 5 in October. You will find the ladies on this site really supportive, so if you ever need anyone to talk to this is a great place to come. I hope that everything continues to go great for you during your pregnancy!
