At least if I poo in the water it will float away gently - if I poo whilst kneeling on all fours then I will indeed have lost every scrap of dignity that I never had :rotfl:

:rotfl: well I hold comfort in the fact that about 30 mins after my waters went I got d&v so I doubt I could of pooped when I got to hosp!:p I was starving after the birth tho! i love that we are so British that after the birth I was offered tea and toast:D
The toast was carp but I ate it like a ravenous dog :shocked:

That's assuming you have solid poo - your body is quite good at clearing out and just having semi liquid stuff to push out along with the baby Not nice!!

I've had tea and toast (with some sort of red jam) all 3x. The first time they even made some for hubby too And it's always 'plastic' sliced white bread which I wouldn't normally touch!

The midwife told me they keep a sieve (sp?) next to our birth pool to catch such sharks :rotfl: .

They had one on that birth programme Dawn Porter did for BBC3!

Its my last day in work tomorrow - i'm soooooo excited! No more work til end of November.:j :j :j

Hurrah! Anything special planned?

I was told yesterday they want a two week handover for my role. I said it would probably take three days to handover to someone brand new so what was I to do with the other seven days.. Was told to take a book in or roam around site visiting people, just be on hand to answer queries from the temp if I was needed!

I haven't experienced a 'normal' labour/birth so I'm sure my hospital has an eating policy too but I did eat like a piggy for the 12 hours I was confined before labour! . And I was flat on my back the whole time with both! :eek:.

Thats a bit carp!! I've had one VBAC since c/s in 1997 - and although m/w had to phone the hospital to check they said i was allowed to use the midwife unit.

Are your unit and delivery suite close together? Ours are in the same building so i suppose if there were any problems, it would be a case of wheeling me down a corridor.

Yep - same building, different floors. Very carp, imo.
They also would prefer I was flat on my back and constantly attached to a monitor

Out for an extended lunch i think - and probably be made a show of in the office with flower etc! I'll probably cry with my stupid hormones!

I work in a huge building, and only changed teams/rooms in October. My old team assumed I was leaving at christmas, so i've already had one lot of flowers/vouchers/card!!

Just passing through and havent had a chance to catch up really. Hope mums(and dads) and bumps are doing well.

I suffered a mishap at work today. I was standing next to the photocopier straightening a pile of documents ready to copy and as I leant over when my bump pressed the start button and it began copying causing a jam in the copier which took ages to sort out!! Now if I train it properly perhaps I can use it as an extra hand!

I also noticed that it was basically hanging in the sink when I did the washing up tonight......gosh, dont I sound attractive!!!

Just noticed we are back to the name thing again. I mentioned at work that I like the name Joshua and someone remarked that all the Joshuas they have ever known are gay. Why cant people keep silly comments to themselves!!
