Any Baby News From Nicole?

15 years ago

Did Nicole have her baby yet? I've wanted to call her but I misplaced her phone number and can't remember Claude's last name or her Aunt's to use directory service. I know Nicole's maiden name. Gosh, Claude's last name is at the tip of my tongue but do you think I can recall it??? LOL

Hi Anne!!! SO nice to "see" you here!! Thanks for thinking of us - I miss you! We haven't been to Windsor in about a year now - we'll have to plan a trip down sometime soon.

My due date was yesterday but no baby yet, unfortunately. I had an appointment with my doctor today and he did an internal exam. He said I'm more than 3 cm. dilated already, and very effaced, so I guess I'm close. Wish I knew exactly how close. I'm extremely impatient, and getting more so by the hour! :)

He says there's no way I'll make it until Tuesday - I'll go into labour any time now, but I've got an appointment with him on Tuesday afternoon just in case (he also said a few weeks ago that there was no way I'd make it to my due date - lol). If Oliver hasn't been born by then, then he'll schedule me for an induction. I REALLY hope I don't make it til then.

I walked on the treadmill for a 1/2 hour tonight, hoping it'll kickstart labour, but it didn't work the last couple of nights! :)

Claude's planning on bringing his laptop to the hospital, so one of us will post once the baby's born. If things aren't moving too fast, and if I'm home when labour starts, I'll post before we leave for the hospital.

I'm so excited!!

Thanks again for asking about me! :)

Any news on Dugger baby?

I just looked this up a few days ago since there hasn't been any news I'd heard of since those first few days. I guess it takes an affair to make 24 hr a day/every day news. I'm just glad to hear she's doing well so far. I pray she continues to do so. Shirley

Sorry I haven't responded - we were away camping for the weekend! I'll go look around for that collage. That was almost 8 years ago now! Dances made a t-shirt of it for Sophie, and I have a picture of her wearing it somewhere. I'll post them in a bit! Hi, other Nicole! :)

I'm still at home, babyless. :) And yes, I am SO anxious to meet little Oliver! Sophie and Benjamin are too. I see my doctor on Tuesday to schedule an induction if I haven't gone into labour by then. Sophie was close to 2 weeks late, Ben was 4 days. I'll be at least 4 days with this one now, too..... SIGH! Thanks for asking about me, Patti. I'll post from the hospital as soon as I can!

Have any of you had a colicky baby?
Q
Comments (23)
Oh boy Nicole do I feel for you. I had a colicky baby for 9 months. He started out as a breast fed baby, cried and cried, we thought he wasnt getting enough. Changed to formula, didnt help. We changed his formula 6 times. The doctor told me that if you added up all the cries of a baby for 24 hours and it totalled more than 1 hour, you had a colicky baby. My baby was barely quiet for 1 hour in 24. The only thing that seemed to help was warm baths and holding him on his back, feet towards my belly, head straight out from that and constant bouncing up and down. I would walk around like that for what seemed like hours, but he wouldnt cry. My back on the other hand was killing me. He also was a cat napper so there was no rest to be found. Mylicon helps some babies, and I can't remember if its peppermint oil or spearmint oil (my baby is now 18) (Just a drop or two in their bottle). You might want to ask the pediatrician about that. I remember those days, we called them the "cranking hours". Right around the same time every night, that first cry and your heart sinks, you know whats coming. Good luck, and hang tough, eventually it will end. Those babies seem to wind up with the best personalities!

Hi Nicole! I miss you too. I bet you are getting anxious for wee little Oliver to make his appearance. LOL I am sure Sophie is going to love having a new little brother that she can help take care of and Benny will get to be the Big Brother and have Oliver tagging along after him.

Hurry up Oliver and make an appearance. Kt Aunties want to see your cute little face.

Wishing you all the best Nicole and have a safe, speedy delivery of that bundle of joy.

Hi Daddy Claude!
