THE FHG SEWING THREAD :-D

[ilove2patch]

As requested, a place for us to ask for help and advice from other stitchers and to show the things we make.
Over to you.:-D

Not another £1:_|

[****merlin*****]

i'll pay for private healthcare for mine rather than be there

being at the birth of someone elses is like being at the conception to me 😐

[numptz2012]

😐

[****merlin*****]

whhhhhhhhhhhhyyyy would you?:_|

when i want new shoes, i order them

they appear

i dont want to watch the man making them

same with babies

[*chez*]

We still teach children to use a better word than nice..

and said.

"It's delightful." Shouted Huggles excitedly, as she rushed to tell her FHG pals all about it.

[huggles1253]

It's more like opening the box than watching them being made.

[****merlin*****]

good morning Miss Chez

**said in a sing songy voice**

😄

[****merlin*****]

i'll prepare them pamper hampers for the delivery suite

i'll run around with boiling water & towels

i'll pace up and down in the corridor

i'll hand out cigars

i'll shop for britain for the baby

but midwives apper to have had a few years training for such eventualities, i think i'll leave them to it

[numptz2012]

That's what I think Huggles, I can't wait to be a Mammar and be at the business end, being encouraging 'don't scream, use that energy to push' will be amazing:-D

[**towery**]

morning

i was a bit bored last night and if my OH had asked where a certain pair of cargo pants were it would have given something to do

as it is i think every item of  his apart from his hung up shirts is currently adorning the bedroom floor 😐   and the i**ning pile is distributed too

thats  my day sorted,

and the best bit 

:^O we still didnt find the pants he wanted  :^O

[****merlin*****]

dont scream?

😐

oh ok then, sorry, it feels like passing a bowling ball, but since you ask, i wont scream 😐

cue one strangled grandmother to be 😐

my midwife was a big black mama when i had kirsty, i wasnt amused, she told me she had a baby in the morning and was out in the fields, baby strapped to her back in the afternoon 😐

bully for you 😐

[numptz2012]

I agree Merlin re midwives BUT I also think that actually HAVING a baby should be compulsary:-D

'It might sting a bit'

'Have you got any children'

'No dear'

'Well shut up then'

🙂

[numptz2012]

I didn't scream:|

I did swear a lot tho:^O

[****merlin*****]

when i had bradley i had a male midwife (are they called that?)

he was brilliant

kirstys had many children and was awful, truly awful, she was almost, come on, slip it out, you can be felling trees in the afternoon:|

[twishy123]

I had a MALE health visitor who wanted to show me how to improve my breast feeding......

He had a pair of fake boobs in a bag......

off was the second word I used...:|

[numptz2012]

I had lovely midwives with Sam

I got to chose who I wanted with the girls but they ended up being 10 days early and she was away so I chose the one who had been my 'surgery midwife' with sam. She was really bossy but I felt really safe with her as she would take no chit from the docs etc.

I had Beau at home, was amazing:-D

[**towery**]

my midwives were ok, dont remember them being awful - maybe that just faded away like the memory of the pain

i think if they were honest with women having their first then it might relax you a bit - its the unkown that is the fear (and the women down the corridor screaming their lungs out)

if they said, its going to hurt a while , but in a few  weeks everything should be back to normal

[numptz2012]

Morning Towery:-D

Toatally agree, if they said 'it's gonna sting and burn like boogery and you may feel like murdering your OH at certains points in the labour' then at least you'd be a little prepared:^O

'boobs in a bag':^O:^O

Was he walking funny when he left Twish?:|:^O

[****merlin*****]

if everyone in the world was like me, it would grind to a halt in about 20 minutes:_|

[twishy123]

He was walking funny when he arrived numpts :^O

lovely chap really.... but when your chest feels as though it's gonna explode when you just look at it you don't want a man telling you it will be okay,you 'just need to feed more'...

His voice was a tad higher when he left.....

*wonders how long it took him to remove his fake boobs* ]:)
