Hi everyone

Just letting you guys know (if you still check this topic) - a friend and I have a Facebook group - Palmy Mums and Babies - started to build up our own coffee group. Anyone welcome, just come find us...we post things that we know are happening around Palmy like music, coffee, organise walks, talk about whatever baby/toddler stuff comes up :-)

One of us is usually at the Community Birth Services coffee group on Thursday at 10:45am (free coffee, toys for the kids, couches etc, open school holidays as well). Anyone wanting to meet other Palmy mums, feel free to come. My baby is almost 12 months but sometimes there are older babies/toddlers/preschoolers there too.

NO it's got totally worse! She's completely on the move! Will need a super child friendly place for the next meet up, she doesn't overly like sitting still.

Reminds me I need to go get my flu shot, don't want to be sick this winter like I was last winter when I got sick before I got it & then just never getting well enough to have the jab

Craziness died down yet? Very peaceful here, my baby has just in the last couple of weeks started consistently sleeping 7-9 hours through the night! Like the main part of the night, not like starting at freaking 4 pm like he did once at 3 months, which of course was no use to me at all! So all relaxed and happy hee hee.]]> Tue, 16 Apr 2013 12:17:22 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42400&PID=5832585&title=palmerston-north-coffee-group#5832585 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42400&PID=5830839&title=palmerston-north-coffee-group#5830839 Author: AandCsmum

Next time! We'll let you choose the location :-) How about in a couple of weeks?

My friend and I once boycotted this particular McCafe for a few years (until they changed owners) so I totally understand (maybe not for the same reasons, maybe not as serious, but we were furious about something that happened at the time). Turns out we can be stubborn :-)

This seemed to die over the holiday period, I guess we were all crazy busy!! (I was just sleep-deprived with a newborn LOL)

Hi lovely ladies!

I am 27 (on Friday!) and i have 2 daughters. Aria is 2 1/2 and Claire is 1 on Thursday. I was hoping i could join you ladies for a coffee group when you next have one! I already have a few mummy friends that i found when i moved here but 2 are moving back to their original cities and the other is always away lol.
So if someone could flick me an email (connie.maria.french@hotmail.com) and let me know that would be great!

Thanks!]]> Tue, 05 Feb 2013 14:57:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42400&PID=5825997&title=palmerston-north-coffee-group#5825997 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42400&PID=5825277&title=palmerston-north-coffee-group#5825277 Author: anna1983

I'm really liking this parenting thing so far, but am looking forward to when he's a little more interactive. I might feel slightly less like a dairy cow/nappy changing robot LOL Looking forward to when he starts smiling!

He seems to be a pretty chilled out baby, not that I have anything to compare to, but he does seem to (mostly) have a bit of a regular sleep/feed/poop routine and doesn't cry much. So far so good....oh, and he's really cute...in my mind anyway! He farts a lot but doesn't burp or spit up much (yet). He already looks like a combination of his Dad and I which I find quite weird - I guess I'll get used to that!]]> Sun, 09 Dec 2012 18:41:29 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42400&PID=5821138&title=palmerston-north-coffee-group#5821138 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42400&PID=5820872&title=palmerston-north-coffee-group#5820872 Author: AandCsmum

I'm feeling pretty OK now - had a bit of a meltdown on the second night once the spinal wore off and the emotional stuff from the preceding fortnight and the labour/birth caught up with me, and the first night home was a bit of a challenge. I'm healing pretty well it seems, feeding is going awesome, tummy has gone down heaps which makes me feel better. Feeling so good I have to keep remembering I have incisions through multiple parts of me and shouldn't be lifting stuff or straining my abs too much! On the bright side, I've been waited on by hospital staff and hubby over the last week like never before!

Hi Anna- congrats on your baby boy

I agree re syntocinon- it's a crazy thing! I went from 3cm to 10cm dilated in 2 hours on that stuff with no pain relief- no what you mean about the nearly killed you!

I am glad that you got the delayed cord clamping. I know what it's like when nothing goes 'to plan'- my one redeeming feature was the no pain relief, so I feel as though I got my one thing too.

How are you feeling now? Has the baby got a name now? (even though you wrote your post only 18 hours ago!) ]]> Thu, 29 Nov 2012 09:38:43 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42400&PID=5820188&title=palmerston-north-coffee-group#5820188 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42400&PID=5820123&title=palmerston-north-coffee-group#5820123 Author: anna1983

So yep, I had a baby!!!! Our baby boy (no name yet) was born Thursday the 22nd. I guess I was in serious contraction pain while you guys were coffeeing! :-)

I had all the intervention I was hoping to avoid, including induction, then winding up with an emergency caesarean not long after starting syntocin because the baby got distressed.

In the end, my symptoms never got very bad at all, I was only mildly affected, but the placenta was looking a bit dodge apparently and the baby is actually a little underweight compared to his expected weight based on my growth scan and customised growth chart (below the 10th percentile or something). He is completely healthy though, 2670 grams, breathed/cried straight away, awesome apgars, feeding brilliantly straight away, doing absolutely awesome.

So yeah, that's me...not the birth I wanted for either of us but the end result is all good and the obstetrician sounded very positive about me being able to have a decent trial of labour next time so long as the pre-eclampsia doesn't strike again or something else goes wrong. I made him promise to stitch me up good and leave all the important bits in during surgery - they either think I'm nuts or they're used to hearing weird stuff from women in labour! I was a bit out of it on gas, days of sleep deprivation and contraction pain at the time!

I did get one part of my birth plan - delayed cord clamping! Not for long, I'm not even sure how long, but they did wait for a bit after both Brent and our midwife asked if they could do that. It does seem to be becoming more accepted now. I don't know if it would have made much difference, but a caesar baby who's been in distress can't help but benefit a little from the extra oxygen, haemoglobin and volume to send to his lungs and help clear lung fluid. He's feeding brilliantly too so hopefully he'll make up for his lack of growth pretty quick!

Poor wee man did everything right, presented beautifully, had some nice normal head moulding even...just didn't handle contractions well. To be fair, I never want syntocin again without an epidural so not surprised he had some issues!!! I had started having my own pre-labour type contractions on Monday and on top of those, prostin pains from the gel on Wednesday, trying to manage contractions with activity and staying upright while not knocking the bloody cables and CTG things and standing on the fetal scalp monitor cable and the sleep deprivation the syntocin just about killed me (or at least it felt like it). Continuous monitoring stinks, but I guess I'll never know whether or not the baby would have made it through labour without it to alert us to a problem, and given the placenta wasn't in a good state, who knows if he would have made it until I had him in a spontaneous labour.

Cross fingers next pregnancy is uncomplicated and I can have a decent shot at a VBAC. In the meantime...when I can actually DRIVE again I look forward to the next coffee date!!

I'm keen if I can make it...no guarantees though.

I've had borderline and up and down results all week - they still can't seem to make up their mind if I actually HAVE pre-eclampsia yet but it does look that way. Yesterday they added in "your amniotic fluid's a bit high, maybe we should do the polycose test again in case you're developing diabetes" - fluid levels are only borderline too high via one method and only in the high end of normal via the AFI and polycose was totally normal at 28 weeks so I think they're freaking me out about nothing but I get the better safe than sorry thing. Know someone who lost their baby after birth because of gestational diabetes (not sure what happened exactly other than the baby's blood glucose got way too low) so OK with double-checking. It's just all very bizarre as low fluid levels seem to be WAY more of a issue, especially with pre-eclampsia.

So I don't know at this point what the heck is going on, just hoping I go into labour before the next ADU visit sends them flying towards "let's induce NOW!". If pre-eclampsia doesn't make me sick, all the suspense of tests every 2nd day might LOL

Anyway if not up at the ADU or delivery suite (:-P) I will see you Thursday if something's organised :-)

Well HE at least seems totally happy so far (and definitely a HE! still don't have a name or even a short list yet - eeek) - it's just me that's the problem so can't complain too much really...we'll see how today's tests go...I've been so expecting to get pre-eclampsia thanks to my family history so I'm quite delighted to only be 3 days off term and only just starting to get borderline results now, nearly 10 weeks after my mother's pre-e was so bad I was born. Hopefully that's a positive sign that if it comes to induction we'll both tolerate it fairly well...shall keep you posted...

Cute photo :-) sorry I missed you guys!!]]> Fri, 09 Nov 2012 07:29:24 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42400&PID=5818593&title=palmerston-north-coffee-group#5818593 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42400&PID=5818567&title=palmerston-north-coffee-group#5818567 Author: Kelz

Hi everyone

I haven't been getting notification emails for some reason and way away last week so totally missed this - but ended up spending the morning in the blasted hospital anyway!

Now have pre-eclampsia - not impressed - at least almost 37 wks now so could be worse and growth scan shows baby is bang on average in all dimensions so that's positive. Back in for more tests tomorrow - so I'm thinking I may not make the next meet up until I've actually HAD this baby as they're making noises about induction :-((((

Please cross your fingers that either I go into labour before things get worse, or that the induction works if it comes to that!!!]]> Thu, 08 Nov 2012 17:46:17 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42400&PID=5818545&title=palmerston-north-coffee-group#5818545 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42400&PID=5818511&title=palmerston-north-coffee-group#5818511 Author: HelloYellow

Yea we signed up at the community birth classes, but only went to half. Found them a bit useless- went over things we knew- our midwife is great and I had read and researched a lot. We are coping very well with only.2 hours of 'classes'. Depending on how you feel, how much you know, and energy levels, I wouldn't bother! ]]> Mon, 29 Oct 2012 19:16:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42400&PID=5817718&title=palmerston-north-coffee-group#5817718 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42400&PID=5817644&title=palmerston-north-coffee-group#5817644 Author: anna1983

I haven't done antenatal classes but I've heard good stuff from lots of people about the Parent's Centre classes (they cost a bit but I've heard bad stuff about the free hospital ones so might well be worth it).

The Westside place is Community Birth Services and it looks like they do free classes - haven't heard anything about those ones at all. www.communitybirthservices.org.nz

Hi all! I would be keen to join the coffee group a little later on as I'm still working full time, but in the mean time would love to still keep in touch as I'm pretty clueless about becoming a first time mum!
I'm due April 8, so just starting to think about what we need etc and reality is starting to kick in that I don't really know what I'm doing!
