Krystal - not like you to let that go on, are you feeling ok?? I would have expected you to say "OK 3 of you need to P off":rotfl:

Do you know, I'm kicking myself for just allowing it to carry on... Think that was one of the reasons I spent the whole day on the verge of tears before I blarted on hubby... And if I go in 2 weeks and its the same I will definitely be telling 3 of them to p off!
Well done on them getting your blood out though, I have 3 bruises and no vials to show for it!

I'm taking RL capsules and keep forgetting to take them, despite the fact I should probably be on about 3 a day now... Hubby remembered last night though bless him... Bought me a glass of milk and a capsule before bed

Feelie, hope things progress at an acceptable rate for you hun (and your hubby gets back quickly if you need him!)

There's a bit of me hoping this baby arrives within the next 2 weeks so I don't have to see the midwife again... Is that bad?:o

thanks to all that responded so quick!!!
Am gonna send her the funny book by Amazon...
Will probably see her in person in a few months - so will take her for a pamper session and make sure I'm armed with biscuits!!!

Good luck to all in here... and thanks again!

Krystal - What dosage are you following for the capsules? I am planning to start next week and find conflicting info on how much to take per day each week. Some sources state an amount of tablets per day but as the capsules come in different strengths this isn't much use! Other sources state an amount of mg per day which varies from 1200 to 3000 or so - again not much help for me.

The ones I will be using are 425mg each.

That's the same strength capsule as me... I just started taking 1 a day and after a week upped it to 2... Will up it to 3 next week... Seeing as you can't guarantee the potency of the tea as everyone will brew it differently, I don't suppose you can really overdose on them... Unless you were popping loads I suppose...

I'm frightened

Was the dia-woo-woo really bad? Is that normal?

Hurry up 2:30pm! Can't believe I'm actually counting down the minutes till someone sticks a hand up me!

OH has gone to work, so things can't happen too fast - takes him at least an hour to get home.

Well that's not a bad thing I seem to recall that not long ago you were having none of anyone sticking anything up there to examine you Just goes to show how much you have changed during this pregnancy - in a good way

Yes very bad! You can't have yours that much earlier than mine!!!! :eek: I just want her a week or so early that'll be fine...

I've been pretty good about taking my RL capsules When should I be stepping them up to 2 though?

Is it bad that I started my RLT on 2 capsules a day.... oh well nothing can be done about it now :rotfl:

Krystaltips

11 Days early is what I'm aiming for Tine

And I'd of upped to 2 by now... Gonna up to 3 at the weekend... Then up to 4 the week after... Then stick at 4 for the remaining time... In theory... If I can remember to take them!

Morning all

Managed to have dinner and watch 24 yesterday, before trying to get some sleep. Pain was pretty bad, so phoned CDU at 1am. Spoke to nice midwife, who asked me what I wanted to do. My reply - "Lie on the floor and cry". She advised taking paracetamol and calling them later. Pain was less intense while trying to sleep, more constant. Very upset stomach, so phoned at 5am to check that was alright. Different Midwife who said its probably early labour, but it might fizzle out. Got consultant appointment at 2:30pm, MW thinks that they'll do an internal to check what is going on. Only just out of bed, waiting to see what pain is like today.

Its a very weird pain that makes me very emotional - when its bad I end up clinging on to OH and crying. Very silly!

Ahh hun, good luck, All i will say is dont get your hopes up too high, I did this and it's annoying, woke up during the night last night with cramping tightenings, but thought sod it, i'm not even going to bother timining or anything because it always dies down, so now i have resolved myself to not even bother unless i'm literally in agony and contractions are a few mins apart.
Or bubs head is hanging out me foof :rotfl:
