Quoting Robyn:

The only thing still bothering me is the carpal tunnel I got in my thumbs.. its like I have arthritis. it's slowing getting better every day and all the swelling I had in pregnancy has gone and no more high blood pressure, it was all worth it in the end!

Oh my god the carpal tunnel was so annoying. The middle finger on my right hand was numb for like a month after delivery! (I also had high blood pressure)

early delivery

i wasnt actually due till the 15th nov, but had to deliver my son early cuz of pre eclampsia, so now he is an october baby ..

I too had pre eclampsia and was induced only by 2 days, so Fletcher was an born on October 30th instead of November the 1st :)  which didn't bother me!

Luckily I had a 3 hour labour aswell so I was out of the hospital within 48hrs..' home sweet home' I'd had enough of the hospital as I was admitted by my GP on the Monday due to high blood pressure and stayed in till Sunday, lost of monitoring and pills etc..

Little Nico was dueFeb 1... and born 12 Oct (24 weeks) He was 710g and is doing okish. I just look at him and can't believe what a miracle wee fighter he is. Our family didn't really need any more October bubs either... Me, my sister, my dad and my grandma had the month covered!! :D

My son was due Nov 20th, but I passed my plug overnight on Oct 14th, water broke on the 21st at quarter to 6p, contractions started on their own at 9:30p, Shane was born at 11:00p. No one is really sure why he was born a whole month early, but my fiancee and I think it may have something to do with the occasional sex and walking around so much.



Shane weighed 5lbs 13oz and was 18.5in. He was as healthy as could be! I was very happy, I had just begun saying how ready I was to get through the delivery and be able to see him and start trying to lose the weight...



We had a perfect pregnancy, the only thing we had to worry about was my Rh factor. So I had to get a Rogam shot after 28 weeks and another after delivery, in which I hadn't had any drugs for. (Not too big of deal because it was only an hour and a half and it was what I had hoped to be able to do the entire pregnancy!!!!) We had him Wednesday night and went home Saturday morning.



We can't wait to be able to have another, though we know we really really should...(we're one of those teen parents, but so far, we're proud of ourselves and a lot of people compliment us on how we're doing...haven't heard too many people voice their negative thoughts about our family)

This being my 1st child..it was a surprisingly smooth delivery. I had eclampsia..blood pressure 208/127 and I lost 60 pounds of water retension 2 days after she was born. She was born oct 23rd and weighed 6lbs 13oz. 19.5 inches long. She was very heathly...I was in labor 24 hrs with potocin and pushed her out in 11 min after they told me to start pushing. I felt so much better after she was born..next stop is surgery to get my gallbladder out. The other beautiful complication.. She is doing very well though..

I was due 16th Nov but was also induced due to pre-eclampsia! I had my little girl 29th October!

We adopted our baby girl. Our little girls due date was Nov. 20th but she was born early on Oct. 4th due to her birth mom (my niece) having a heart shaped uterus. Misha spent 12 days is the hospital before coming home. She is doing great and is very healthy!

Me too! My baby was due on Nov 26th, but I had to deliver him on October 4th due to severe preeclampsia. After spending 3 weeks in the NICU, he is a very healthy baby boy! I was very lucky to have gone into the Dr's when I did... who knows what could have happened.

I just hope maybe I can prevent it in the future with my next pregnancy.
